"We're an empire now. If we act, we create our own reality. And while you study this reality - so prudently and wisely, as you will - we will act again, creating new realities. ... We are the players ... and you, all of you, you will examine only what we do. "(Leading member of the Bush administration). War on terror shows how radically this maxim of the Bush administration has been implemented. The overriding rule of law in dealing with prisoners, the infiltration of the propaganda ban in their own country, but also Orwellian notion creations such as "illegal enemy combatants" or "enhanced interrogation techniques" are the basis for the documentation, which is 10 years after 9 / 11 with the human depths and dark side of Western security policy settles.
