In order to render the strange logic of dreams, Freud cited the old joke about the borrowed kettle: I never borrowed a kettle from you, I returned it to you intact, and the kettle was already broken when I borrowed it from you. Such an enumeration of inconsistent arguments, of course, confirms exactly what it endeavours to deny - that I returned a broken kettle to you. That same inconsistency characterized the justification for the US-led invasion of Iraq, argues i ek in this provocative study that can be considered a sequel to his acclaimed "Welcome to the Desert of the Real"!
