Joe Biden helped Bush and Cheney build the case for the Iraq war by allowing the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to be a doormat. Scott Horton’s book “Enough Already” reminds us that lies and conspiracy theories by Israel supporters fed the runup to the Iraq war.

The New York Times gives Paul Wolfowitz a platform to criticize Trump on the withdrawal from Syria, and the fight against ISIS, without saying a word about the roots of ISIS in the destruction that his project of invading Iraq wrought throughout the region. Wolfowitz should be on trial for major war crimes, Helena Cobban writes, not featured in the New York Times.
