Indeed:

From where Winston stood it was just possible to read, picked out on its white face in elegant lettering, the three slogans of the Party:

WAR IS PEACE

FREEDOM IS SLAVERY

IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH
The whole war was engineered by the administration as a reason to get oil. Sure, theres weapons of mass destribution there! Sure, hes a terrorist! Sure, Osama Bin Laden performed the attack, but Hussein's name is similar!

Great excuse for an oil man to get his buddies rich.

Not saying good things havent come out of the war. But it shouldnt have happened to begin with.


I always find it funny how hypocritical the US is (well, every country, but I live in the US). We go to war with Iraq because of WMD, and yet I could bet you anything that the US has stockpiles far larger, and far more deadly.

Anyone read The Stand by Steven King?

Or Brave New World, 1984, We, Anthem? Yup, its happening.
