Iraq was sorta, but that was also playing on the damaged psyches of people who had been attacked in a way never thought possible. It was obviously lies and a lot of us could see it from the start. But we were told to luv it err leave it by people who don’t know the meaning of “free speech.” I wasn’t around for Vietnam, but the difference there was that people were being drafted to go and die.
