What I Heard About Iraq

This is a column by Eliot Weinberger that came out last month, but it bares reading, and re-reading. Warning: Any human being with an ounce of empathy will come away depressed, horrified and outraged by this. Read it anyway, and remember that this is what 51% of the people of this country voted for, whether they realized it or not.

Here's a good companion piece that lists various misstatements, half-truths, and downright lies given by the administration over the Iraq war. Watch for the parallels coming up soon as they gear up for Iran. And to help you keep your scorecard current, there is always Bush Lies, a website devoted to keeping up with all the crap they try to feed us.
