Nothing for the Nation: Who Got What Out of Iraq

In October 2002 author John Hostettler was one of only six (6) Republican members of the United States House of Representatives to vote against the resolution authorizing President George W. Bush to invade Iraq. In Nothing for the Nation , Hostettler first explains why he voted against the authorization and what led him to proclaim on the floor of the House of Representatives two (2) days before that vote that the case supporting the allegation of a program of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) in Iraq was tenuous at best. Hostettler then makes the case that the true motivations for removing Saddam Hussein from power was not so much about US national security but was more personal to the two parties most prominent in selling the WMD case to the American people and their elected leaders in Congress. You've read about faulty intelligence. You've heard from politicians who say they were lied to. Now find out what really happened and find out why we are in Iraq from the man who got it right before the beginning!
