Goes into the invasion and occupation of Iraq and talks to key figures in the White House, 10 Downing Street and Iraq itself. The bit that stood out to me is that right from winning the election in 2000, the plan was to always invade Iraq. Afghanistan was just a bump in the road.

I fucking knew it! Fuck, I wish ten-year-old me wasn't such a dumb Kool-Aid-swiller. At least I still had the good sense to want Kerry to beat Dubya back in '04, even though I couldn't do a damned thing about it myself.
