George H.W. Bush: The War Crimes They Don't Tell You About | Graham Elwood

An investigative political commentary and historical breakdown hosted by Graham Elwood for The Political Vigilante. Following the death of the 41st U.S. President George H.W. Bush, Graham analyses Mehdi Hasan’s Intercept exposé detailing the suppressed realities of Bush's political legacy. Graham examines the racist 1988 Willie Horton campaign strategy; the manufacturing of intelligence and fake troop buildup claims leading into the Gulf War; the devastating civilian death toll and infrastructure destruction in Iraq; Bush’s obstruction of justice during the Iran-Contra scandal; and the escalation of the racially disproportionate War on Drugs.
