Indeed....

Lets look at the train.

American Public gets pissed about Afghanistan
so the 'administration' decides to invade Iraq.
American Public gets pissed about Iraq
so the 'administration' raves about Iran and the dangers they pose.
The American public doesn't buy it, and realizes what has really happened in Afghanistan in the last 6 years...
Suddenly NK is a huge threat again, so says the administration.

It's all about shifting focus.


Same thing happened when people started realizing the danger of the patriot act - the 'adminsitration' trys to make additional laws to allow DHS almost total control... American Public thinks its iffy... Suddenly there is a plot to blow up airplanes with carryon liquids involving hundereds of flights.
American public is now ok with the laws..


Propaganda.
