All WHIG members knew that what Cheney had claimed on August 26, 2002 was a lie. Hussein Kamel, Saddam’s son-in-law, had told the IAEA the exact opposite of what Cheney had claimed, and the IAEA had subsequently verified that General Kamel spoke the truth. So Cheney lied. Many Congresspersons knew he lied. And on the eve of Bush’s pre-emptive attack on Iraq — thanks to Scott Ritter — the mainstream media also learned that Cheney had lied. At least about what Kamel had revealed. Did Bush administration officials tell you other lies about Iraq? And did the mainstream media repeat those lies?

Iraqis Say Lynch Raid Faced No Resistance

Accounts of the U.S. military's dramatic rescue of Pfc. Jessica Lynch from Saddam Hospital here two weeks ago read like the stuff of a Hollywood script. For Iraqi doctors working in the hospital that night, it was exactly that -- Hollywood dazzle, with little need for real action.

Lying and dying

CounterPunch
by Missie Beattie

The military recruiters ask if prospective enlistees can kill. Do they ask if they can kill children? Do they explain that soldiers’ lives will be in the hands of a president who was AWOL, missing from Alabama during the war that was supposed to end all wars? Do they tell our young that Poppy Bush arranged the safety of George with a stateside assignment but that they must be prepared to serve wherever their commander-in-chief sends them?
