Uncovered: The Whole Truth About the Iraq War (2004) Reviews

This movie is really a series of interviews with various people who have held various positions in the Government. There are also experts from the U.N. who were involved with the search for W.M.D's before the second war started. During these interviews the people are basically commenting on various aspects of the situations they witnessed or were involved in that lead to the War happening. The title is a bit misleading because this movie really doesn't show the Iraq War at all. What it shows were the events that occurred prior to the war, and who was involved in arguably one of the worst decisions this Government has ever made. It is an interesting film if you are someone who has never been exposed to how this Government makes decisions. If you have been exposed to that information before, it will be no surprise to you at all. The title should really be.... Uncovered: The Whole Truth About the Decisions that lead to the War in Iraq.

Like it or not, the facts are undeniable: We were misled into the Iraq war. This documentary is just one of thousands of sources, but it has the advantage of interviews and perspectives from many people who were inside the administration as the lies were told. It's paintful to admit, but we were duped into Iraq by a corrupt administration whose agenda wasn't protecting the U.S. or spreading democracy, but using its war powers to gut the treasury, steal a lot of oil, and increase their power. Now, if only there could be justice.
