Bill Moyer’s Journal video questions.
1. What’s the opinion of Moyers regarding the war in Iraq?
2. What was Bush’s reasoning for going to war w/Iraq in the speech quoted from 2003? (This is two weeks before declaring war on Iraq.)
3. According to Moyer how many times does Bush make reference to 9/11 and Alqaeda? Would the US be able to declare war on Iraq if it could not establish ties to terrorism in Iraq?
4. Why didn’t it make sense for Saddam to be in alliance/working w/Al Qaeda? (Bob Simon)
5. Who was Chalibi and what role did he play in helping move the US towards war w/Iraq. How is this scandalous in retrospect?
6. What was WHIG or the White House Iraq Group?
7. When Bob Simon said that Dick Cheney leaked a story and then quoted the story what’s he mean?
8. What do you think of Condoleeza Rice’s phrase “we don’t want the smoking gun to be a mushroom cloud?”
9. What do you think of the idea of preemptive action to protect the US from terrorism? How far can this be taken?
10. What do you think of the war with Iraq?
