In Part 1 of Hubris: Selling the Iraq War, Rachel Maddow reviews the history of animosity toward Iraq by members of the Bush administration and how the attacks of 9/11 were seen as an opportunity to press for the removal of Saddam Hussein, whether a connection to the attacks actually existed or not.
In Part 2 of Hubris: Selling the Iraq War, Rachel Maddow explored how questionable evidence from dubious sources was culled to frighten the American people with the argument that Saddam Hussein's weapons program was a threat to the United States.
In Part 3 of Hubris: Selling the Iraq War, Rachel Maddow illustrates how the Bush administration exaggerated the threat of Saddam Hussein's nuclear ambitions with discredited information about aluminum tubes and yellowcake uranium.
In Part 4 of Hubris: Selling the Iraq War, Rachel Maddow revisits how the case for war with Iraq was made to Congress, with many on the Senate Intelligence Committee not reading the flawed National Intelligence Estimate, resulting in an overwhelming vote to give President Bush a free hand with Iraq.
In Part 5 of Hubris: Selling the Iraq War, Rachel Maddow shows how Secretary of State Colin Powell was given flawed evidence to make the case for war with Iraq in front of the entire world with his credibility as collateral.
In Part 6 of Hubris: Selling the Iraq War, the regrets of politics overtaking good governance and good journalism are felt by those who didn't hold the Bush administration to a higher standard.

The Catch 22 and what people forget, is we are the ones who set up Saddam in power many years before, and here we are years later, taking him out. Go figure..

What we really fail to do is to know where we are in Bible prophecy. The Bush II lies that took us into Iraq were revealed on day 1335 of prophecy. But who was blessed to understand the significance of that revelation when it was front page news?

CAIRO — The chief justice of Egypt's Supreme Constitutional Court was sworn in Thursday as the nation's interim president, taking over hours after the military ousted Islamist President Mohammed Morsi and launched a major crackdown on the Muslim Brotherhood, the group from which Morsi hails. In the highest profile arrest since Morsi's ouster, security officials said that Mohammed Badie, supreme leader of the Brotherhood, was arrested late on Wednesday in the Mediterranean coastal city of Marsa Matrouh, where he has been staying in a villa owned by a businessman with Brotherhood links....
Badie and el-Shater were widely believed by the oppositions to be the real power in Egypt during Morsi's tenure.
Authorities have also issued a wanted list for more than 200 Brotherhood members and leaders of other Islamist groups. The leader of the Brotherhood's political arm – Freedom and Justice Party – and another of Badie's deputies have been detained. At least a dozen of Morsi's advisers and aides are also under house arrest.
The arrests and warrants against Brotherhood leaders signal a crackdown by the military against Islamists who have dominated the political scene in Egypt since the ouster in 2011 of autocrat Hosni Mubarak.

Bush & Cheney Knew About 9/11 Months Before It Happened Says Whistleblower
Here's a very good interview with whistleblower Susan Lindauer Ex-Chief CIA ASSET covering Iraq & Lybia at the United Nation from 1995 to 2003. She gave advance warning(in april) about 9/11 and the peace option on the table that the United States wanted to supress. She went through the proper channels via congress to testify, and 30 days later she received an arrest warrant with false charges. Of course they had no proof of these, then the US invoke the Patriot Act to deprive her of a trial and any rights.
