re: #133 Coracle

I’d love to see documentation of that. I was, and still am under the impression that Powell believed the data when he presented it, and was disillusioned rather severely when it proved false.

He wasn’t just disillusioned, he was fuckin’ pissed! And rightly so. But I remember reading that he didn’t want to go to the UN, but was chosen because he had the most international “credibility” in the administration. Now his legacy is as the General who lied to the UN, whereas he should be remembered for his admittedly excellent leadership during his military career.

I feel sorry for Powell, seriously.
