Excellent article - thanks! And this passage sums it up very well...
"The war served the politics of those who knew fear, uncertainty and rampant nationalism would help win elections. The war served the politics of those who knew their radical policy ideas would never see the light of day without fear and uncertainty. The war served to distract the populace from mistakes and deliberate misdirections, thus defending the political standing of the perpetrators."
