Bush: caught in the headlights of history

[Charles Jannuzi]

snip>As Washington veers between President Bush's bellicose "dead or alive"
rhetoric and a defensive attitude towards the war, things become more
confused. The closer one looks at what is going on, the more one seems
entitled to conclude that we are dealing not simply with a badly run
propaganda campaign, but with a war shaped by propagandist considerations
that is bereft of consistent aims.<snip

Yes, like a huge freight train wreck staged spectacularly, with 360 degree
camera set ups and in very slow motion. You just have to wait and wait
before you can start picking up the pieces.
