Decade After Iraq WMD Speech at U.N., Ex-Powell Aide Lawrence Wilkerson Debates Author Norman Solomon

decade later, we host a debate between Powell's former aide, Col. Lawrence
Wilkerson -- who prepared the U.N. speech, only to later renounce it -- and
media critic Norman Solomon, author of War Made Easy. Watch/Listen/Read
