Surely you already know the answer to that. Not to go off on a tangent, here, but I'll quickly lay it out, for you...
Ingredients for Starting a War, Despite a Democracy that Would Normally Be Against It
- A Presidential administration with a personal agenda for a war against a particular nation and its ruler.
- A cataclysmic event, such as a mass-scale terrorist attack. (Note, this event does not necessarily have to be connected – directly or indirectly – to the nation and its ruler that the Presidential administration wants to go to war against.)
- Public fear, confusion, and thirst for revenge.
- An economic recession (optional).
- A Presidential administration that is willing to feed propaganda and misinformation to congress and the public.
Add them all together and stir it up, and you got... a war!
