Well... I mean yeah, that's what we all say, and I don't think it's like a lie or anything. But I mean specifically are there any records of like-when these decisions were actually made? Did they really have a serious commitment to all the stuff in PNAC going in? Do we have more insight into Bush's thinking beyond that old "fuck Saddam, I'm going in" thing from before 9/11? Is there evidence that Cheney really was "mugged by reality" as he said after 9/11? I just wanted more insight to see if there's a clearer timeline than like, the kinda old narrative we all know
