2nd Op: Doug Cochrane

Doug Cochrane of St. Andrews A

Made fun of sacrifice examples given by David.

1. Value of truth
2. Practical

Definition: 'only for war ends, not for political ends' - they can't be so easily differentiated.

Create a culture of political lying.

Decision about going to war is just as legitimate when it comes to the questions during the war over whether to end the war or not.

Their proposal can't be implement policy without censoring other sources of info, which is probably impossible.

Misleading the enemy won't work if you've been lying to them.

Nailed the no comment sufficiency issue.

Iraqi troops demoralised by lies by their government.

Attached journalists will have to go.

Lied about u-boats meaning shipping companies made bad decisions.
