Ok, I don't know where you're getting this "Ruanda" thing, I can't remember ever writing anything about that here. Your "anti-semitic" theory is duly noted, it's not like that one hasn't been thrown at me before. And it's not like I'm in exclusive company on that front either. Ok, I admit I used to take Richard Perle's self promotion too seriously, but now I try to give W full credit for wanting an Iraq war all along. And I guarantee you that my taking Perle's self promotion too seriously never had anything to do with his faith.

The main thing about the prewar WW2 analogies is that they were in general used to exaggerate the threat posed by Iraq.
