Quoted:
"Bush spoke to Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld at that time "about planning related to Iraq."
But there is a difference between planning and making a decision to go to war"

K - no there isnt! Well, not in the big picture. It was Einstien who said something like "Planning for war means you are not planning for peace"

There was a lot of 9-11 implications being part of the plan for war. I remember Wolfowitz or Rumsfeld saying in 1991 after the first Gulf War that "going all the way into Baghdad would need a Pearl Harbour, but on American soil".

That gets clearer with these quotes:
"The process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event - like a new Pearl Harbor" (2000)
-- Project for a New American Century

"We are on the verge of a global transformation. All we need is the right major crisis and the nations will accept the New World Order." - David Rockefeller


All of that was learned from the hero of global dominators everywhere, Hitler, who gives us this this quote:
"Terrorism is the best political weapon for nothing drives people harder than a fear of sudden death."

RE: Woodward: Administrat

The fear will wear off though. The generation before me lived in fear of global nuclear war. We grew up with it and never worried about it much...they would either blow us up or they wouldn't and there was nothing we could do about it and they were all lying anyway.
