We Can’t Let the Bush/Cheney War Lies Go Down the Memory Hole
Sadly, it’s clear that neither Bush nor Cheney will be held accountable for their lies and the blood and treasure they cost.
Yesterday was the 20th anniversary of George W. Bush and Dick Cheney’s war against Iraq, which followed their illegal invasion of Afghanistan just a bit more than a year earlier.
Given the costs of both these wars — and the current possibility of our being drawn deeper into conflict in both Ukraine and Taiwan — it’s an important moment to discuss our history of wars, both illegal and unnecessary and those that are arguably essential to the survival of democracy in the world.
