If the United States joins Israel’s fight to try to finish Israel’s job, it will enter into a war of unknowable scope against a country of 90 million people
I agree Iraq was a mistake, but I believe Iraq was a mistake based on intelligence failure
If it was just an intelligence failure half the country wouldn’t be railing against it. Iraq was also justified by lies, just slightly better packaged lies.
Our own intelligence agencies were at odds with each other. Part of the justification for going into Iraq was their supposed support for terrorist groups which was shakey at best.
Bullshit the CIA literally told the administration and they lied on stand in the UN to start the war. Don’t act like the only two conflicts of interests that made billions didn’t get anything out of starting the greedy endeavor called the Iraq War.
In the late 1970s and early 80s Iraq under the control of Saddam Hussein used chemical weapons, including mustard, gas to attack Iran.
Under Saddam Hussein Iraq also used chemical weapons to attack a minority ethnic population called the Kurdish in their own borders
And in the 1990’s Saddam, invaded another country without cause.
All those facts together, it felt totally reasonable to believe that Saddam Hussein had chemical weapons and was willing to use them or give them to terrorist
I know that this is contrary to the popular message in the media these days, but it’s a time living through the actual event, there was another perspective to this whole story
All those facts together, it felt totally reasonable to believe that Saddam Hussein had chemical weapons and was willing to use them or give them to terrorist
Only if you ignore… literally everything else about the situation. “Felt reasonable” isn’t an excuse to start a fucking war.

What was the meeting setting for this apparent admission? Please post an article or a video.
Who the fuck would defend the Bush administration in 2025???
I’m not even making fun of you. I’m legitimately curious
Former CIA members its in a documentary about this exact problem go search up.
What is the title of the documentary? Is it by Michael Moore? That guy is shady.
