935 lies about Iraq in two years

935 mensonges en 2 ans sur l'Irak - 935 Lügen über Irak in 2 Jahren

Il y a déjà quelques semaines que j'ai lu un article de journal sur le fait que l'administration Bush a menti presque mille fois dans les deux ans qui suivaient le 11 septembre 2001. Maintenant, je vous propose la première partie de l'abrégé de l'enquête du Center for Public Integrity.

President George W. Bush and seven of his administration's top officials, including Vice President Dick Cheney, National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice, and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, made at least 935 false statements in the two years following September 11, 2001, about the national security threat posed by Saddam Hussein's Iraq. Nearly five years after the U.S. invasion of Iraq, an exhaustive examination of the record shows that the statements were part of an orchestrated campaign that effectively galvanized public opinion and, in the process, led the nation to war under decidedly false pretenses.
