Lie by Lie: Chronicle of a War Foretold: August 1990 to March 2003

The first drafts of history are fragmentary. Important revelations arrive late, and out of order. In this timeline, we’ve assembled the history of the Iraq War to create a resource we hope will help resolve open questions of the Bush era. What did our leaders know and when did they know it? And, perhaps just as important, what red flags did we miss, and how could we have missed them? This is the first installment in our Iraq War timeline project.

"Lie by Lie" is a massive Flash database of events leading up to the Iraq War. The "mechanism" for using this database is a little unwieldy and requires a "fine touch," but the amount of information in it already is enormous, and should be of good use for trying to understand recent US history. Check it out!
