His actual job in al-Qaeda in Iraq was overseeing suicide bomb manufacturing, he has killed more Americans than any "Iranian" IRGC members that US have blamed for "insurgency" in Iraq against American invaders.

Today I'm mourning the hundreds of thousands of Iraqis who died because of the avarice and sociopathy of men like Dick Cheney. I'm mourning for the millions of people whose lives were upended, derailed, and destroyed by his wars. I'm mourning for the whole world, which he left a poorer, darker place.
-
The fucking media in US whitewashing the monster war criminal Cheney as if he was one of the good guys.
I guess, killing 4,5 million people and displacing over 38 million people wasn't so bad because they were not Americans or westerners.
All these disgusting liberals care about is themselves and the white people in the west.

The Iraq invasion and the bombing of Iran are acts of desperation — the conduct of a wounded, uncertain nation that went on the defensive when the Twin Towers went down and history arrived on its shores. By Patrick Lawrence…

What is WikiLeaks and why did it get Julian Assange in so much trouble?

"The true number of military personnel injured over the course of our nine-year-long fiasco in Iraq is in the hundreds of thousands — maybe even more than half a million.
...
We don’t have anything close to an exact number, however, because nobody’s been keeping track."

(now 20 years ago) Ten years ago, a major American magazine published a bombshell report about the non-existence of Iraq’s WMDs. But it was hardly noticed by a corporate press corps too busy hyping the threat from those non-existent weapons.
The story appeared in the March 3, 2003, issue of #Newsweek–a short piece with the headline “The Defector’s Secrets.” It almost seemed as if the magazine didn’t know what it had on its hands. Or perhaps it did.Inspectors were told “that after the Gulf War, #Iraq destroyed all its chemical and biological weapons stocks and the missiles to deliver them,” Barry wrote. All that remained were “hidden blueprints, computer disks, microfiches” and production molds. The weapons were destroyed secretly, in order to hide their existence from inspectors, in the hopes of someday resuming production after inspections had finished. The #CIA and MI6 were told the same story, Barry reported, and “a military aide who defected with Kamel… backed Kamel’s assertions about the destruction of #WMD stocks.”

John Howard’s 2003 march to war with Iraq appears to have taught our current parliament little | #Australia news | The Guardian
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/mar/20/john-howards-2003-march-to-war-with-iraq-appears-to-have-taught-our-current-parliament-little"Steele-John has repeatedly called for a “re-evaluation” of Australia’s close security relationship with the US. On Monday, he said the Greens stood united in “opposition to ever again, being led into an illegal, immoral and unjust war at the reckless hands of the United States of America”."

20 years ago, US started the illegal invasion of Iraq, based on lies and manufacture "proof", a crime against humanity that went unpunished.
The architects of the invasion, the ones who lied again and again and those who committed war crime in the 2 decades long invasion of Iraq are all free. Except for a few "bad apples" some who received the presidential pardon from Trump. They all living their happy lives.
The got rich, either during the war, or after it when they wrote books, received 100s of thousands of dollars for speech and interviews justifying their actions or play dumb or forgetful.
The same people are now calling for prosecution of Putin and his criminal foot soldiers for the invasion of Ukraine.

The defining image of the U.S. invasion of Iraq and its actions there. No one knows what happened to the detainee!

Whats the Bible verse for " I killed a million Iraqi's & got away with it " ?
But Putin is being prosecuted by ISS for war crimes.
(He sure deserves is, but so does every US president since Carter)

20 years later, BBC is whitewashing the crimes of those who lied about Iraq WMDs
It is a disgusting propaganda piece by BBC on the 20th aniversary of the worst crime committed by western nations in modern history.

> “That’s not the way the world really works anymore. We’re an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you’re studying that reality — judiciously, as you will — we’ll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that’s how things will sort out. We’re history’s actors… and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do.”

But I still can't fine the #IraqInvasion-era discussion.. -
I'm looking around #TomDispatch for #TomEngelhardt's on #Rumsfeld's admission that reality wasn't an issue in the #IraqInvasion. Maybe it was #Petraeus that was confident they could create the desired #FactsOnTheGround . Either #HannahArendt or #SimoneWeil writes of the totalitarian's constant stream of facts and how contradictions don't matter just keep giving followers something to get excited about.
