Powell Lying to the UN

Complete transcript and audio of Powell lying to the United Nations Security Council.

Here is the analysis:

ON 60 Minutes II - The person responsible for analyzing the Iraqi weapons threat for Colin Powell says the Secretary of State misinformed Americans during his speech at the U.N. last winter.

AP Fact Checked the Powell speech 6 months later - Exaggerations and Lies

FAIR Fact-checked and found the same.

UN weapons inspectors called US accusations BS and garbage.

TVNewLies has more on the two presentations here.

Yellow Times noticed the lies pretty quickly

Powell's U.N. report apparently contains false information

I had a blog post about Our So-called Liberal Media - Washington Post Examples about how the fact-checking that demonstrated exaggerations and lies was buried on the back pages.

Cogent Provocatuer was very good at tracking Powell Lies

Dr. Rangwala had my main argument, a review and demolishing of all 44 claims Powell made before the UN Security Council. (I finally have a new link, my previous link was to a Google cache elsewhere.)

It is becoming a faint drum beat in the media, Powell sold himself because of loyalty to dishonorable men and his legacy is lies, lies, lies.

The is much, much more on my site and elsewhere but I'll close with Powell's boss.
