Heh.

Sort of reminds me of something my dad once said in a very gallows-humor vein.

“If we don’t find any nerve gas or whatever we’re looking for, we better plant something there, or we’re gonna look like the biggest assholes in the world.”

My father wasn’t too thrilled with the invasion of Iraq; he was a WWII vet, and like he said, “America doesn’t just go around invading other countries for no good reason. I fought in a war against a country who did just that starting in the 1930s, and the reason was to send the message once and for all you don’t do that kind of shit. I never imagined we’d end up doing what we’re supposed to be against.”
