Before the American Neoconservatives together with the bellicose Jewish Lobby and the 'corporate press' succeed in creating a war against Iran it is good to know the following:
Conclusion of the U.S. Naval Institute concerning the Tonkin Lie:
'We may never know the whole truth behind the Tonkin events and the motivations of those involved. However, it is important to put what we do know into context. The administration's zeal for aggressive action, motivated by President Johnson's election worries, created an atmosphere of recklessness and overenthusiasm in which it became easy to draw conclusions based on scanty evidence and to overlook normally prudent precautionary measures. Without the full picture, Congress could not offer the checks and balances it was designed to provide. Subsequently, the White House carried the nation into the longest and one of the most costly conflicts in our nation's history.'
