Reflecting on the start of the Iraq War 20 years later. I cannot overstate how appallingly one-sided the news coverage was in the US during the buildup to the invasion.

@jensorensen It's not just that. It's that former defense officials from the Nixon Administration found themselves in the Shrub Administration & viewed the Iraq Invasion as their opportunity to fix the failings of Vietnam.

That book in the Bible with all the "begats" comes to mind.
