Frontline: Truth, War and Consequences
Five  months after George W. Bush officially declared victory in Iraq, doubts over U.S. claims about the existence of weapons of mass destruction continue. What did the administration really know prior to the war? From office water coolers to U.N. halls, everyone has an opinion. Into the firestorm ventures Frontline, unflinchingly dissecting the reasons for going to war, examining what¿s gone wrong, and weighing what¿s at stake. Bush has presented himself as a leader of integrity, but where does he stand on the "truthometer" scale? Interviews from key players and a who-said-what timeline help you decide. Moving beyond partisan posturing, how could coalition forces have done a better job with pre-war intelligence? Could they have disbanded tribal turf wars that have led to looting and continued casualties? Are we now prepared for nation building? True, hindsight is 20/20, but when the stakes are this high, we can certainly learn from recent history. (in Government > Military) |
