I think explanations work better with an example, what about this one?
>1. Create or exaggerate a problem.
Iraq is part of the Axis of Evil
>2. Create hysteria over something that you know is not a threat and will never happen
Iraq has WMD and they are willing to use them
>3. Claim that you have the answer to solving the problem that isn’t even a problem
Invade Iraq to take control of the WMD
>4. When the threat, which never had a chance of being real, doesn’t materialize, claim victory that your contrived solution saved the day and be hailed a hero!
WMD were not found, but we brought peace and Democracy to Iraq
