9:45Now PlayingAaron Glantz, author of The War Comes Home: Washington's Battle against America's Veterans, discusses the U.S. media's eager participation in selling the Iraq War and hyping Colin Powell's infamous U.N. presentation, how Obama made good on troop reductions but is too quick to claim credit for the war's end, increased funding for the VA that has improved care somewhat, the betrayal of soldiers who have killed and died for a war based on lies and how service dogs are used to reduce the epidemic of suicides among veterans.
