  • It’s simply amazing how no one got into trouble after all this.
  • I feel So Sorry for our Troops, their families, as well as the innocent Iraqi civilians that had to suffer through this damn LIE. 🕊️
  • So will Bush, Cheney and Blair be indicted by the International Court of Justice?

    2:42 - Oh no, not Aluminum Tubes... So according to Collin Powell, I could apparently build a Nuclear Bomb out of the frame of my bike! 🤣🤣
  • @S.E.O.S
    Can we send a copy of this 60 minutes to the icc
  • @dkpqzm
    All you had to was ask 50% of the people who lived through it, and saved yourself a lot of money. We knew it was a lie then too.

    I am from Iraq, I lost my uncle in this war, and I do not expect that there is an Iraqi family that did not lose anyone, but what makes me laugh more in this miserable life is that the person who kills a person is imprisoned for life or executed, while the person who kills a million Playing sports in the streets of New York💔
  • More than 387,000 civilians have been killed in the fighting since 2001 Millions of people living in the war zones have also been displaced by war. The U.S. post-9/11 wars have forcibly displaced at least 38 million people in and from Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Yemen, Somalia, the Philippines, Libya, and Syria. This number exceeds the total displaced by every war since 1900, except World War II.
  • @Polarcutter
    How many innocent Iraq people were killed and American soldiers sacrificed. Bush and Cheney need to be held accountable.
  • Every one involved in this horrific inhumane act should be prosecuted for war crimes
  • @disporting
    Great story and investigation. We need investigation and a free press to do it!
  • @HighwayLand
    20 years later and NOW we have confirmation that this war was BOGUS! Does that mean that all of our soldiers can get reparations for wasting their lives for a lie? Or maybe Iraq can sue for $2 TRILLION DOLLERS for all the harm we caused. I would support that.
  • @joshulery6525
    One of the biggest crimes ever committed, it makes me physically sick
  • Unbelievable that this illegal war, this aggression, that costed so many innocent lifes, devastates the country and destabilised the whole region was even possible. Until now, no-one has ever been held accountable for this crime. Whilst discussing Russias illegal war on Ukraine, we should also discuss the illegal war on Iraq and hold those responsible for that accountable at an international court.
  • @italianoDOCG
    I am from the future and I can confirm no one will be held accountable
