review: "Uncovered: The Whole Truth about the Iraq War"
Edited on Sun Dec-07-03 07:44 PM by amen1234
Great video...classy....it was a GREAT review of bush*, colin, condi, rummy and wolfowitz actual filmed statements PRIOR to the 'shock and awe'....lies, war criminal lies, but when seen as they were shown on TV prior to 'shock and awe", you can really see what lies were told....lies, lies lies....it seemed so far away, so long ago, until you see the video....then it becomes crystal clear that the lies were no misunderstanding, those lies were a deliberate misleading of Americans and of Congress, and the media was complicit....

the lies about costs, rummy saying about $ 1 or 2 Billion initially, first year, about $ 5 or 6 Billion, and then years later, MAYBE $ 15 billion...and all paid for by Iraqi Oil, then the big bush* demand in September for $ 87 billion...and we find out that the cost until then was $ 70 Billion...all the lies caught on film....

the video was very very factual....although photos of 'shock and awe' were shown, nobody said how many Iraquis were killed during the initial bombing....just facts....although there were some funny times, when the lies were so blatant that you had to laugh, but at the same time, it was not funny really...everyone cracked up watching the chimp try to straddle across the aircraft carrier deck with his crotch straps tight (a real pilot releases straps upon landing)....especially since we had some military pilots with us here in Alexandria VA, near the Pentagoon....

the big question in my group was 'when will this be shown on National TV....who will show it?'

the whole video was very well done "A"....Scott Ridder, Joe Wilson, Hans Blix and other famous and not so famous people...with each person, the number of years experience and the agency were listed as they explained each situation...the shrub's State of the Union speech was picked apart piece by piece...long time CIA agents explained what shrub's approach is really doing to our security....

if you get a chance, it's well worth viewing....

1. Thanks for the review!
I've been thinking about buying a couple of copies to support another website and I wondered how it would be.

2. I doubt PBS/CSPAN or any will touch it....I would like to see it...maybe
people can start asking the necon radio shows for thir review on it ...watch them dodge duck and evade while sons and daughters...moms and dads are at risk.
