That was the major crime that set off the Reagan wars of terror. Noam Chomsky

war passion fighting

But, no, as I soon learnt as industry minister, it was in fact a government funded redoubt of veritable soldiers in a war against carbon dioxide.

After fighting these people for three years as industry minister, I really did wish they would just go away and grow tomatoes. Nick Minchin
