A memo proving the Administration purposely fixed intelligence on the Iraq War, and also proving personal lies from Bush showing he was planning the war earlier than he told Congress. The "Downing Street Memo" made huge news in all the UK press, but the American press has been so sheepish because none of them want to be called "the liberal media" by all the right-wing pressure groups funding by oil companies and other corrupt lobby groups.

Do what you can now to support justice and impeach Bush or hopefully even bring him to a war crimes tribunal.

Among other things, the memo said:
Bush wanted to remove Saddam, through military action, justified by the conjunction of terrorism and WMD. But the intelligence and facts were being fixed around the policy. The [National Security Council] had no patience with the UN route .... There was little discussion in Washington of the aftermath after military action. ...It seemed clear that Bush had made up his mind to take military action, even if the timing was not yet decided. But the case was thin. Saddam was not threatening his neighbors, and his WMD capability was less than that of Libya, North Korea or Iran.
The memo's authenticity was not disputed by Blair's office.
