YOU so full of BS. Saddam was defeated in 1991 and never again was a danger to anyone especially not the U.S. This book shows just how we went to war for no valid reason and you can make all the excuses you want, that is the fact!

i did not say danger, i said attacked. for ten years he tried to shoot down our jets. that is an attack on the USA no matter how you spin it.

They shot at our jets as we flew over Iraq. What do you think we would have done if Saddam had flown over the U.S.? That is NOT an attack on our country and they had no military capable of attacking anyone. As David Kay correctly said we went to war chasing a mirage.

they were there per agreement at the end of the other war. when you lose a war the winner tells you what you will agree to. if after the war is over and you still attacking or being attacked then the war isn't over. with the exception of units that don't know the war is over.

Yup, America DID go to war chasing a mirage. Most people were against it, but our leaders did it anyway... it was called The Revolutionary War.

Freedom has never come to any nation without great people making decisions that were protested by small minded people with no vision. Recently, 40,000 Iraqis voted for the hope of the new Iraq, by returning home to help build it. I'm sure they wouldn't appreciate you spitting in their faces for it.

What I really find interesting about Col is that when ever he finds a book, an article, a story or a show that agrees with his ideal, he never once stops to consider that those individuals who write these books, articles, stories or make these shows, may actually have other intentions as oppose to telling the truth, you know like making money. It's as if these people would never tell a lie, people who are or have been involved in politics for long periods of time and Col believes they speak the truth out of the kindness of their hearts cause they actually care about the American people.

I've learned the hard way time and time again that the average person tends to say what people want to hear just to benefit from the reaction without care for the consequences the reaction might have. Politicians wrote the book on "give them what they want we'll worry about the consequences when we get to that bridge". They make these average persons look like rookies.

Col,

I am no one to tell you, in this great nation that is the United States of America, where one is free to read what one wants, what you should or should not read. I, however, ask, just like you asks people like me to read this book you just read, that you take into consideration many motivations that exist when people write books. Considering you yourself have written a couple of books. Things such as money, envy, anger, politics and vengeance are great motivations for some people to write books and articles which may not necessarily be as truthful as they may make them seen. Giving the people what they want in order to make a buck tends to be the highest priority when it comes to writing something as oppose to giving the honest truth. Let's be realistic here, when was the last time that honesty was the best policy? I am only suggesting you look at any book from many points of view and not from a narrow point of view. Cause like they saying goes, if you look for faults in something, chances are you will find it, in this case you will always find someone has written a book that would suggest what you believe in is correct. What you may have failed to notice is that he got exactly what he wanted, your money or at least someones money that you know if you got it from the library and got someone to buy it so they could read it.

charles your talking to gene like he cares, he doesn't. all he cares about is raising taxes on the rich and bashing bush.

The war in Iraq was justified by Bush because Saddam was a danger to our country. That was a LIE. The ONLY justifiable reason to send our military to war is to defend this country. We were not in any danger from Saddam and Bush was told that by the Pentagon in 2002. For a nation as powerful to have gone to war on a fairy tale that one man wanted to believe is unacceptable. Most of the world DID not support our actions and they were correct. Bush was wrong and no excuse will ever change the fact.

The problem is that the people in this book ARE those that have the FIRST HAND Knowledge unlike everyone on this Blog Site. It makes no difference to those who are not intersected in Truth and only in defending the lies we were told!

No insult intended danielost, the difference between you and me is that I don't always need to resort to insulting Col to get my point across. I believe to a certain point Col has a brain and as you can see he only replied to part of my post because I'm sure he realizes I was right and chose to ignore the rest of my post because of it.

Hmmm, you are right, but then so did Bush, Cheney, Powell, Congress and the Senate. Are you saying that we, the American people, are so stupid that we put morons in the White House, Congress & the Senate and that the real smart people are in our other Gov't agencies?

BTW, I hope you are including yourself in the group of people from "this Blog site". I find it interesting, as you ignored in my post, that you will swallow anything anyone says so long as it agrees with your ideals. I mean you won't even question their motives for saying what they say. Gov't agencies have been know to lie, change the rules and ignore the American peoples opinions, not to mention you yourself have criticized just about all of them for lying at one point or another. Now you wanna ally yourself with them because they are saying something you wanted to hear? I'm sorry Col, but you are exactly the kind of person the Gov't loves, people who are easily dupted into believe anything they say.

We were wrong in intrusting people like Bush and Cheney with power because they came to power with a preconceived agenda and facts, experience made no difference. Anything that did not help them move their ideas forward were either IGNORED or kept secret so that people were not able to raise important questions about what they wanted to do with the power that comes from the Presidency. Bush and Cheney had no real experience in any foreign or military policy. Those with the experience and knowledge warned Bush but he did not listen and the results are what we see today! In addition, when the facts prove what we did was a mistake, Bush and Cheney continue to defend their policies as correct when the results prove just the opposite!
