Bush-Era Iraq War Architects Emerge To Demand ‘Credit’ For Iraq War ‘Success’


In April 2006, ThinkProgress produced a report titled “The Architects of War: Where Are They Now?” We wrote at the time, “a review of the key planners of the conflict reveals that they have been rewarded — not blamed — for their incompetence.” Referencing our report in July 2007, New York Times columnist Paul Krugman wrote, “To read that summary is to be awed by the comprehensiveness and generosity of the neocon welfare system.”

Flash forward to today, and the answer to our original question of the Iraq war architects — “where are they now?” — can be answered quite simply: They’re on your TV screens, in your radio, and in your newspapers — shamelessly demanding credit for the work they’ve done.

4. good... I want every soldier to look at this list and know who their enemy really is
these cream-puff spoiled rich brats who never had to really work for a living but instead use dishonesty in order to attain what isn't there's to begin with. Pathetic losers...
