There’s a lot to be proud of in Colin Powell’s legacy, but his presentation to the UN advocating for war against Iraq with evidence he knew (or at very least suspected) was bullshit may have been the most consequential bad decision he ever made.

And I say that as one of the many idiots who believed it, at least partly because of Powell’s credibility. I don’t blame him, I blame myself for not being more skeptical when I should have known better.
