During and in the days after 9/11 I was indeed afraid as were many.
But take Iraq as a prime example.
Knowing what we know now, there was no evidence to support fearing Iraq...but there was evidence for serious concern.
Yet, the public's position on Iraq was driven entirly by fear which was intentionally marketed to us.
As such there was insufficient objectivity among those who enforce accountability (Congress and the people).
The result has been a string of terrible and corrupt policy which has done great harm to our Nation.
