Archbishop attacks government: "'A government that habitually pressed its interests abroad in ways that ignored manifest needs and priorities in the wider human and non-human environment, habitually repressed criticism or manipulated public media - such a regime would, to say the least, jeopardise its claim to obedience because it was refusing attention ... It would be concerned finally about control and no more; and so would be a threat to its citizens and others.' "

This says a lot about the danger of the Bush administration--it is concerned with control, obessessed with it. Why? So it can pursue it's policies regardless of the interests of truth, justice or other human rights. Ultimately all it cares about is power. What does it want to do with power? It wants to enrich itself. And who is it? It is a very small group of very rich people and their sycophants, who number many more.
