What A Mistake
I was doing my laundry and other things at my Mother’s house Sunday morning and made a terrible mistake – I turned on the TV to get some news.
What I got was a lot zombies on all of the channels attempting to convince the world that the Iraq War wasn’t really a disaster, and had nothing to do with the current problems in the country.
There was Wolfowitz avoiding questions about his statement that there wouldn’t be sectarian violence if the US deposed Saddam, and Paul Bremer claiming his decision to disband the Iraqi Army wasn’t really the cause of all of the Sunni and Baathists military veterans joining ISIS.
Tony Blair has issued a statement saying that taking Saddam out was the right thing to do and that decision has nothing to do with the current situation.
And the so-called ‘journalists’ let them get away with it.
None of the shows had on anyone who had opposed the Iraq War, and predicted that it would lead to sectarian violence. Being right is not a requirement for being on TV news shows to share your ‘expertise’. That the media disinterred these losers and gave them air time, shows that there really is no point in going to television for news.
