OK - This might be a bit political....



Here's an interesting video I found from the CBC program the Fifth Estate called "The Lies That Led to War". It gives an interesting perspective on why the war on Iraq was started and the very suspect evidence that was used to justify it. I'll warn you now it's long, about 45 minutes, but is very well put together and definitely gives you something to think about. Here's a bit of the lead in to the show -

"
Since the US-led invasion four years ago, the fifth estate has covered Iraq and the war on terror from virtually every angle--the military, media, intelligence, politics--revealing aspects of the story that you didn't find anywhere else. Now, as the White House warns about the latest threat in the region, this time from Iran, it's worthwhile looking back to examine the deception, suspect intelligence, even lies, that convinced the world of the rightness of targeting Saddam Hussein."
