Is this war essential to stop terrorism from invading our shores, or was shaky intelligence "fixed" to justify a pre-planned invasion?
Our own independence celebration this weekend is an appropriate time to take stock of just where we stand on Iraq, given the duplicity of information and mixed-messages coming from the White House and from our British allies.
