Synopsis:

In many countries, the invasion of Iraq in March 2003 has since been declared illegal. Boris Bertram dissects the process, suggesting how future campaigns may be organized in order to sell wars to the public and obliterates our belief in political integrity in his coverage of the prelude to the war in Iraq and the political game that drove it. Through TV archive materials and interviews with key figures, we are taken where stories are invented and history is written.
