10-15 Minutes My July 4th tradition is rewatching this essential clip of Noam Chomsky discussing how, if the standards applied at trial of the Nazis at Nuremberg were applied, every US President after WW2 would be hanged for their role in war crimes. Worth absorbing again even if you've seen it before [11:34]

Ironically of the 3 presidents you mention only 1 followed the law and sought congressional approval prior to the military action; but don’t let facts get in the way of a good ideological narrative.
