You know, this memo, whether or not it's real, is still the truth.
My cousin is in the Army, has been for 8 years. He was home on leave over the July 4th holiday, 2002. When the subject of Iraq came up, he said that they were going to Iraq to take out Saddam. They were already mobilizing and gearing up for it, he said.
So when Bush was talking about how war wasn't an option yet and he wouldn't take America to war, etc., he was lying. I watched him thereafter, lying on TV over and over again until he finally announced the military campaign. It was quite disgusting.
And now we know that the WMD reason for war was not real, and the threat Saddam posed to us was not real. So what were the real reasons for the invasion? We'd all like to know, George!

The US has been bombing Iraq since the end of the last Gulf War !! I was deployed in the Persian Gulf in 2000 and I remember very clearly that F-14s loaded with bombs left the ship and returned without their load. They were not playing war games with other countries; we were bombing Iraq !!!
