10. Exactly. They enlisted believing
that our government would be honest. We didn't know our Secretary of State would go in front of the Security Council and present flawed intelligence. We didn't know the Bush administration would cherry pick the intelligence. We didn't know our CIA personnel would be ignored by their superiors. We didn't know our National Security advisor would put her allegiance to her boss ahead of her allegiance to her country.
And our soldiers didn't know any of this, either.
They trusted this administration to tell the truth. And, they didn't.
