A Very Interesting Video
Hot Talk On Iraq
The link above is to a very good eye opening video regarding the decision to go into Iraq. It features Karen Kwiatowski, a fomer Pentagon desk officer and vocal critic of our government's engagement in Iraq (and what appears to be sabre rattling in preparation to go into Iran). It reveals how the neocon elements within the current adminstration arrived at this decision through subtefuge and outright lies. It's highly disturbing. You'll need about 15-20 minutes to watch it.
Below is some background information on Kwiatkowski from Wikipedia for those who are unfamiliar with her.

Kwiatkowski is primarily known for her insider essays that denounce a corrupting political influence on the course of military intelligence leading up to the invasion of Iraq in 2003.
