Yeah, like this is at all believable. They kill the man, then send in a government agent to 'disclose' his most inner thoughts they he revealed behind closed doors. Notice they didn't put out any of this crap when he was alive. They killed him so no one could argue with the US account of how it happened.

The biggest glaring issue in this interview is the assertion that SADDAM LIED about the WMD's, which is why the war started. They are trying to shift the blame from the bush administration to Sadaam. It's a sad attempt to rewrite history by using the words of a man they had killed to keep their sins secret.

If the whole cause of the war was based on a lie by Sadaam, then one has to ask, how did he cover it up so well? I mean, weapons inspectors prior to the war found nothing, and have been very vocal about this. The CIA has since said they too had no intellegence to show he had WMD's. This means that the burden of proof came down to the fact one man lied - and was able to 'fool the world' as the interview claims.

Only problem is only America claims to 'have been fooled' - everyone else was against the war, and still are. To now try and attempt to rewrite history so people will think bush is somehow the victim in all of this is, well, laughable.

I think Bill Maher put it best. As near as I can get to a direct quote from memory:

"Apparently Bush has now convinced himself that history will look kindly upon him. It's only us in the present that don't get it. He's the van Gogh of presidents."
