How Bush and his junta succeeded in deflecting America\’s anger from bin Laden to Saddam Hussein is one of the great Public Relations conjuring tricks of history. But they swung it. A recent poll tells us that one in two Americans now believe Saddam was responsible for the attack on the World Trade Centre. – John le Carre
