Anyone catch the Frontline Losing Iraq on PBS

If these things interest you then you have to watch this episode. I seen it on PBS channel but is available on line. I thought I had a sense of what went wrong but this follows it from the beginning to now with ISIS, no detail left out, easy to follow, the people that were on the inside are commenting throughout the Doc.
Bad decisions made from the start and they kept making them one after the other..At times they could have been successful but politics at home made them rush to finish the job leaving holes all throughout the mission.
This Doc. plays no favorites..Both parties and presidents really messed this up. A must watch with incredible inside footage.

I know Joe..I have a BS detector that is very good and I seen no slant here, but I know many other PBS shows have an ajenda..Frontline seems to nail it and whoever is in their sights left or right they tell it like it is politics aside.

I can't wait to watch it later today. I find that Frontline is a class act, very neutral...except when talking about environmental issues. :roll:

~O~

I've found pbs to be pretty neutral and like how they present world news.

The money that's been wasted on Iraq would fund PBS, NPR, the entire school system, and would do wonders with our infrastructure. The lost lives are priceless. Oh well, as long as Dick (what a perfect name) Cheney is happy, all is well with the world!! :rant:

Whats the difference :smilie_happy:
Frontline is a quality program it is just broadcast on the PBS channel, they aren't affiliated with PBS other then that.
