“When Diane Sawyer asked Bush why he had claimed with such certainty that there were so many weapons in Iraq, he replied: ‘What’s the difference? The possibility that [Saddam] could acquire weapons, If he were to acquire weapons, he would be the danger.’ What’s the difference? In a society based on the rule of law, the difference would be a criminal prosecution. MSNBC and Hubris steer us away from any ideas of accountability. And no connection is drawn to current war lies about Iran or other nations. But the production of programs like this one that prolong Americans’ awareness of the lies that destroyed Iraq are the best hope Iran has right now.”
