"The people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country." – Herman Goering at the Nuremberg Trials.

Hm basically he's right..but then again, the US WERE attacked, if you like it or not. If 9/11 wasnt a declaration of war (not by some specific country, but by global terrorism as a whole) then I dont know what in your opinion would be an "appropiate" attack, which would justify a defense war.

In the nazis' case, however,a real threat never existed, nor was there any attack that would have justified a counter-strike. Hitler, when beginning WW2, was "staging" an attack by Poland in order to winn support for the annexion that followed. But as I said, it was fake. 9/11, Djerba, Bali, Yemen, Kenia.....those are for real.
