Do you trust Colin Powell's judgement?

I stopped trusting his judgement the day he held up hand drawn vehicles as "proof" of Iraq's WMD programme at the UN and not a shred of solid photographic evidence in sight.

That's not really fair.

The vans he was talking about did exist... and there were photographic proof of their existence, he could of showed had he wanted.

It's just that said vans were Hydrogen generation vans and not Chemical Weapons vans.

So, no solid photographic evidence. I rest my case. They were bullshitting, and they knew they were bullshitting, then they changed the whole justification for the invasion after the fact. Colin Powell was possibly the least willing conspirator in that whole charade, but he was a conspirator nonetheless. Hence can't really be trusted. You need to know who's pulling his strings before you can judge the worth of his word.
