I am impressed by the quality of Linda McQuaig's research, and the way she exposes the prevalent attitude of denial about the hidden motives of the Iraq war. She makes quite clear that the old a-morality of the fables does still apply in the international area. Along the fable of the Fox guarding the henhouse, she could also have cited "The Wolf and the Lamb", which begins by this sentence: "The right of the stronger... is always better". Today, however, most US leaders feel the need to cloak themselves in a veil of piety and religious beliefs in order to better evade questions about their morality.

Linda McQuaig spot lights the frightening power of Big Oil. It has near absolute control of the U.S. government and the U.S. media. It wages war in Iraq (and elsewhere)and no one in the media is allowed to mention it. Linda might have pointed out that the U.S. media is conducting a concerted campaign of misinformation to blame the Iraq war on the Israel lobby, i.e. the Jews. Not very original, but a tried and tested method of deception.
