The invasion of Iraq was a true crime against humanity, resulting in catastrophy for millions. People who dismiss it as inconsequential, are demonstrating sociopathic tendencies, in my opinion.

...you will step in more Trump BS. Most people don't read or care about newspapers anymore, and conservative Republicans have redefined you as "liberal" and biased. Why not declare war on Trump and his regressive picks? Investigate and identify them for what they are and how they intend to "make America great again."

media not owned by billionaires and/or large corporations is UNDER ATTACK, EVEN FROM THE POTUS.

The term of the moment is "FAKE NEWS."

Any mention of alleged crimes beyond those reported in the MSM is called "FAKE NEWS" now.

Today, the Pentagon Papers would be called "FAKE NEWS."

Any and all books and articles not adhering to the government line will be called "FAKE NEWS." Investigative journalism will be scorned as the province of the literally mentally ill. Only "news" from OFFICIALS will be taught to our young as credible; all other sources to be ignored as the work of fantasists.
