DSM nothing new - outside the US
While the DSM are certainly news - nothing that they talk about is news outside the US. So, we never had it in black and white but everyone knew before the war that there was no evidence of WMD, that there were no credible links to terrorism, that the brittish intelligence on Iraq, much of which was presented to the UN by Colon Powell was plaguirized from a paper written by a grad student...much of this was out there in the US as well if people looked for it.

The conclusion that I, and many others, were forced to draw from this is that a majority of American voters (and all of those who didn't vote), or almost a majority if the election was stolen (and all of those who didn't vote), didn't care - didn't care about an illegal war, didn't care about becomeing the world's new bad guy, didn't care about being lied to, didn't care about a soaring defeceit (currently almost $27,000 per American man woman and child), didn't care about prisoner abuse, human rights violations, war profiteering by Bush's friends...just somehow, inexplicably, didn't care.
