CBS Falsifies Iraq War History

There's a cynical old saying that the victors write the history. CBS's "60 Minutes" demonstrated how that process works on Jan. 27 in airing Scott Pelley's interview with the FBI agent who de-briefed former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein.

In a world of objective reality, a reporter might say that the United States launched an unprovoked invasion of Iraq on March 19, 2003, under the false pretense that Hussein possessed weapons of mass destruction, even after Iraq had repeatedly - and accurately - announced that its WMD had been destroyed in the 1990s.
