The Neo-Cons who were furious with Bush Senior for not occupying Iraq after Operation Desert Storm ended up in Junior's administration.
Junior wanted to be seen as a "war president". He thought it would assure his place in history.

I had heard some of the things stated in that article, but I hadn't realized the source. It's hard to imagine such an evil cynicism about war. I wonder how early they had written the Patriot Act. Maybe we have been giving Cheney too much credit for being a puppet master.
