Not defending Dubya, but it’s far from just him. Many previous administrations are complicit. Our government just waits 80+ years to declassify operations until the people who would be personally outraged are deceased, and the rest just see it as history.

If former US military spoke candidly to new recruits prior to enlistment, we’d have no one in our armed forces.
