Hold whatever opinion you want about whether or not we should have invaded Iraq, but what is not in question is the fact that we were misled in the buildup to war.
Except the ENTIRE WORLD believed it......and the ENTIRE WORLD was involved with the intelligence......

AND THE ENTIRE WORLD thought the invasion was necessary.

GAWD how we love to change the narrative to fit what certain factions would like to see.

It has been 10 years..........in 20 or 30 or 40 years.........History will view this mess completely differently......COMPLETELY.

It is amazing that in 1939 Stalin and Hitler were viewed as the greatest thing since apple pie......We sure know DIFFERENTLY now, don't we.
