Why this sudden push to rewrite history about the Iraq war?

[Ford_Prefect]

84. The entry into Iraq war was stage-managed long before GW Bush took office. His ascension enabled it.

Invasion plans had been drawn up at least 2 years prior to the 2000 selection and were part of the Neo-Con drive to usurp the White House. In fact they had been in development since Reagan along with the Neo-Con Coup that was derailed by Clinton's election.

Frankly your contention that Americans had hate to deliver and decided based on uniquely American prejudice to unload on Iraq are insulting. You push the boundaries of credulity never mind recorded fact. Such an assertion is reactionary on the face of it and ignores the facts known then and since.

You ignore the manipulation of Congress by means of FOX news and other Neo-Con machinations. I have friends who worked as congressional staff at the time who said you could not believe anything said by ANYONE at the time because so much came so fast. The fake call lines and congressional mail and email machines run by the Neo-Cons made it impossible to tell what real voters were saying. The faked Intel from many sources. The insipid and fawning MSM reports of yet new fearsome intel. This and more functioned as the echo chamber driving the decisions Congress made.

You leave out the absurd drive to vote for war and for the obscene Homeland Security bill without prior and proper debate. It was a (now well documented) drive by Conservative leaders to obstruct over 200 years of constitutional democracy in order to subvert it to the cause of Empire.
