The Film the Truth about the war in iraq is a documentary that interviews approximately 22 ex CIA and high ranking US officials in regards to the war in iraq, including operatives who worked in iraq and weapons inspector Kaye who categorically stated that there was no evidence of any WMD's in Iraq and even if there were they would have been useless as chemical weapons have a shelf life of approximately 2 years maximum. Saddam procured his in the late eighties and early nineties. All claims of WMD's and nuclear weapons have been proved thousands of times over to be false.
"In his documentary feature, UNCOVERED: The War on Iraq, filmmaker Robert Greenwald chronicles the Bush Administration's determined quest to invade Iraq following the events of September 11, 2001. The film deconstructs the administration's case for war through interviews with U.S intelligence and defense officials, foreign service experts, and U.N. weapons inspectors -- including a former CIA director, a former ambassador to Saudi Arabia and even President Bush's Secretary of the Army. Their analyses and conclusions are sobering, and often disturbing, regardless of one's political affiliations. Since this film was first released in November 2003 via thousands of house parties organized by MoveOn.org, the issues addressed have become well known, and the arguments made by the experts in the film have been proven. Most recently, by the Downing Street Memos. This is an important film documenting exactly how the Bush administration hoodwinked the American people into supporting an unnecessary war. A war that has claimed tens of thousands of lives, and continues today. Read why the director, Robert Greenwald, decided to make this film. See the timeline of the Bush Administration's justification for war, images and excerpts from the film, or the complete transcript (pdf)." http://www.truthuncovered.com/ On Sep 12, 4:53 am, Gaar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > It IS in FACT part of what the UN was looking for for Years... > > Your rhetoric notwithstanding. > > On Sep 11, 11:50 am, VT Sean Lewis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > LMAO! > > > I said these type of shells do not count! > > This is from your Proof!!!!! > > > They even say IT IS NOT PROOF!!!!!! > > > A.
