I don’t know if I believe this....I remember the night that GWB came on T.V. and announced we were going to war...Powell looked upset, angry but I don’t think it was because he was ‘lied’ to...
He was in GWB’s hip pocket with Rumsfeld and the ilk, I don’t buy this story...
That’s besides the point.
The point is whether or not Trump would have heard reports that the administration lied about WMDs.
The answer is yes.
This is Powell himself saying it.
Im not a Rumsfeld fan but itwasnt him who pushed the Iraq war. According to his personal account, He was surprised as others in the DOD when this was dropped in his lap. This was Wolfowitz and Cheney. If the intel community gamed the war on someones bequest, every dead soldiers family should demand another congressional hearing and demand prison time for those responsible. I believe GWB was misled, and IMO, we should have killed Saddam in 1991-1992 and not fought the same war twice.
Me neither. Hindsight is 20/20 defense.
