I made mine up completely.

So yeah, I do love it.

I could have gone with anything.

I could have gone with Gervais.

I could have done anything.

And the other thing that I would also say is, you know, we start debating sort of the methodology behind how they did it.

Like, well, if they had only gone and made a better case or things without really getting to the question of, should we be doing these things at all?

Not whether or not we should do it

more forthrightly, or we should settle on just one reason.

Because that's, listen, we all remember Iraq was very well coordinated as far as building a coalition, going to the United Nations.

Now, it all turned out to be bullshit, but at least they respected us enough to go through the process of lying to us

know reasonably uh well now we're starting to say well why didn't they do it that way as opposed to i'm talking about a more fundamental question within the west which is don't we have to rethink

what danger, as you said, is acceptable in a world of these growing weapons.

Containment seems to be the only thing you can reasonably do.

It's almost as though we're saying, no, the recipe for war is...

You start to seed it early that there's a growing danger.

Then you start to build allies towards what your end goal is.

As long as you give Americans a clear distinction of what your three aims are, like once you get to three aims and you've presented evidence, now you've fulfilled your licensing requirements for war and you may do it.
