Republicans Prefer War to the US Constitution and to Truth

• LewRockwell.com - Paul Craig Roberts

Apparently 77% of Republicans have fallen for the propaganda that Iran is a terrorist state developing nuclear weapons.  The same Republicans fell for 9/11, Saddam Hussein's "weapons of mass destruction," Assad's "use chemical weapons," Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Gulf of Tonkin, the endless lies about Gaddafi. And now the Republicans are falling for Trump's unsupported claim that the "War is very complete, far ahead of schedule."

If the war is nearly over ahead of schedule, how come on March 8 the US State Department ordered non-emergency US government employees and family to leave Saudi Arabia due to safety risks? How is a war that has expanded to Saudi Arabia nearly over?
