RE: On The Iraq War’s 15th Anniversary, Make The World Remember Its Lessons

in #war7 years ago

I haven't forgotten, I remember all too vividly. There were many protests around the world, the Pope at that time disapproved, to an extent even Bush Sr. disapproved, and yet the Bush administration couldn't wait to get the ball rolling on that war as they rushed to begin the invasion. They weren't going to listen to anybody, and they weren't even waiting for the weapons inspector. Meanwhile the mainstream media locked ranks pushing for war, and even late night talk shows promoted the war machine.

What is interesting now is that more people are awake, while everyone seemed to be soundly under the spell back then. Unfortunately it doesn't seem that has changed very much.
