“There has been a good deal of comment — some of it quite outlandish — about what our postwar requirements might be in Iraq. Some of the higher end predictions we have been hearing recently, such as the notion that it will take several hundred thousand U.S. troops to provide stability in post- Iraq, are wildly off the mark.

“In the networks' endless pursuit of controversy, we should ask what is the end value ... to enlighten or to profit? What is the end result ... to inform or to confuse? How does the ongoing exploration for more action, more excitements, more drama, serve our national search for internal peace and stability.” ShouldDoeEndsActionValuesAsksResultsDramaProfitPursuitEndlessExcitementInternalsExplorationStabilityControversyOngoingEnlighteningEnd ResultsInternal Peace Book:The Impudent Snobs: Agnew Vs. the Intellectual Establishment Source: The Impudent Snobs: Agnew Vs. the Intellectual Establishment
