Last Straw

Back in 2003 and 2004 over 70% of American’s polled were telling poll­sters not only that they believed Sad­dam Hus­sein had WMDs but that he was per­son­ally involved in the attack on the World Trade Centre.

Now they’re at it again, with over 70% telling poll­sters that they think Iran has nuc­lear weapons.

Should this coun­try really be allowed to deal in inter­na­tional politics?
