Deep Origins of the Iraq Invasion, 20 Years Later (Part 1)

Please support us by becoming a patron here https://www.patreon.com/Theantedote

In the immediate aftermath of the observance of 20 years of the March 19, 2003 invasion of Iraq and the catastrophe that proceeded to take place, we begin a series focusing on the deep origins which will go all the way back to the late 70s. In part one, we read from "The Iraq Sanctions Myth" which details the exaggerated death toll brought by sanctions against Iraq throughout the 1990s, and how this was used to help make the case for invading.
