I was talking to folks yesterday at lunch about this NPR story. This is a powerful 9 minute piece recounting the last 3 years - the information leading up to Iraq and our stated reasons for being there. It's a powerful piece everyone should listen to.

Quoted: This week marks the third anniversary of the beginning of the war in Iraq. Mike Shuster tracks the events leading up to the U.S.-led invasion. These include Bush administration claims -- since discredited -- of ongoing Iraqi nuclear weapons development and links with al Qaeda.
