Euphemism and the DoD
Some direct quotes from a Department of Defense paper on the whitehouse.gov website.
Euphemism for blatant disregard of international law:
DOD is fighting the Global War on Terror by: taking the fight to the enemy;
Growth:
Under this Administration, the Department of Defense (DOD) has received the largest increases in funding since the Reagan Administration, and this Budget builds upon that record. The 2006 request represents a 41-percent increase over 2001, and a 4.8-percent increase over 2005.
