Dette argument rangerede næsten lige så højt som masseødelæggelsesvåbene. Men som alt andet omkring krigsbegrundelserne, var også denne et bedrag.

Men hvad betyder det, når man er på råd med Gud:

'I'm driven with a mission from God. God would tell me, "George, go and fight those terrorists in Afghanistan." And I did, and then God would tell me, "George, go and end the tyranny in Iraq …" And I did. And now, again, I feel God's words coming to me, "Go get the Palestinians their state and get the Israelis their security, and get peace in the Middle East." And by God I'm gonna do it.'"

The lunatics have taken over the asylum.
