    Ask George W.. and I’m sure he won’t tell you the correct answer.

    We make extensive War plans , but we never seem to plan for what happens after the shooting dies down .
  • The official narrative says one thing, but the truth of the matter is that Saddam threatened to cease basing his oil production on the petrodollar. That would have a domino effect on the dollar.

    The picture of George on the thumbnail , says it all. Looks like Bambi . What a monster with absolute power .

    I was on two deployments to Iraq. I wasn't in Baghdad, I was to the west in Al Anbar and the Euphrates River. It was wild. I wish I had joined earlier and got to go in the initial invasion.
  • Definitely one of the best Baghdad documentaries I've seen. The interviews with the Iraqis are quite captivating.

    They did it because the people that we are not allowed to speak about told them to

    As a veteran of that war, Im still waiting for WMD proof, because none (to this day ) were ever found~ Colin Powell held up a tiny jar (half full) suggesting WMDs were found~~dude was a joke~
