Produktbeschreibung

A revealing account of the hidden motives, false intelligence, and lies that started the Iraq War by "the gold standard of investigative journalists" (Truthout.org). In The War on Truth, award-winning investigative journalist Neil Mackay analyses all aspects leading up to the war in Iraq, as well as its execution and aftermath. He contends that the public was systematically fed untruths in a manner that threatens democracy. Having covered Western intelligence agencies for the Sunday Herald, Mackay asks how the best-funded intelligence networks in history missed the attacks on 9/11. With revealing detail on how intelligence is gathered and interpreted, he also investigates the botched conclusions about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. We also gain an insight into the neoconservative think tank that played a key role in shaping foreign policy for George W. Bush, and stated before 9/11 that the US needed a "new Pearl Harbor" to condition people into supporting war against Saddam Hussein. "Neil's masterly and prodigious scoops are the stuff of newspaper legend."-John Pilger, award-winning documentary film maker and journalist
