Colin Powell Saying He Was Misled Before UN Speech on WMDs:

On February 5, 2003, Secretary of State Colin Powell addressed the
United Nations to rally support for an invasion of Iraq.

His presentation contained little substance and numerous obvious
flaws, and the international community was unimpressed.

America's mainstream media, however, declared it "compelling."

For a nation living in the ghostly shadow of the twin towers, the
media's Good Warmaking seal of approval was enough to keep that
treasonous question — "why?" — relatively unheard.

The costs — in lives, money, reputation, and more — of this war of
whim are nearly incalculable.

This year's fifth anniversary coincides with a Super Tuesday primary
like no other. As Americans across the country go to the polls, a
couple of hundred thousand American troops, contractors, and
mercenaries are still stewing in America's longest and most
ill-conceived war.
