Bush called Iraq invasion 'unjustified' instead of Ukraine in speech gaffe

Bush speech gaffe: Called Iraq invasion 'unjustified and brutal' instead of Ukraine. In what some are calling a gaffe and an epic 'Freudian slip,' former President George W. Bush accidentally called the invasion of Iraq 'wholly unjustified and brutal' while speaking about Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Bush made the embarrassing gaffe in a speech at his presidential center in Dallas, where he spoke about the importance of fair elections and slammed Russia's autocratic system.  'The result is an absence of checks and balances in Russia, and the decision of one man to launch a wholly unjustified and brutal invasion of Iraq,' Bush said, before shaking his head and correcting himself. 'I mean, of Ukraine.'

As the audience fell into awkward silence, Bush muttered under his breath what sounded like the words, 'Iraq too, anyway, ' drawing laughter from the crowd.

The Iraq invasion was never justified.

[brandon]

The way he laughs it off is an insult to the people whose lives he ruined and stole.

[dixienormous]

He told the truth for once, and it pained him doing it.

In 2013 I was 10 years old. I remember those days. I am really unable to describe what happened because of the ugliness of the war. But my heart is still broken because of what this person did to my country

[pyro]

We got it out of him in the end lads, even if it took 19 years

[mmmxyz]

The audacity to come out and lecture pepole about international law and war crimes .. doesn't this guy has any shame at all ??

[fmls]

Absolutely disgusting to hear people laughing at such "joke", millions of kids and innocent people died there's nothing to laugh at.

[josedro]

The truth pushes so hard to emerge, George,

[robertbaratheon]

So this is like “Putin is the worst human on earth and russia is the worst place on earth, but we, murica can do whatever we want!”

[ginadean]

Most honest thing I have ever heard out of his mouth.

[mahyar]

I appreciate his bravery, to tell the truth finally, and now he should come clean about 9/11.

[ujingekumaor]

He said it out of what he has been facing with his conscience all this while. He has never been free from his conscience but the American ego will not allow him to say sorry to the people he destroyed for no just course.

[gga]

The irony is how he criticize someone for doing what he did, hipocrisy is strong with this one, basically western politicians in a nutshell.

[MrFlexNC]

He must be dying on the inside for telling the truth for once

[Martondiheritage]

Not 'Slip of The Tongue', but 'Subconsciousness Order' that comes from his heart. While his soul, always lied to it. At this moment, he lost quickly in interrupting his subconscious orders.

[KR-wzsn]

As the saying goes...A slip of the tongue is no slip of the mind!

“I mean Afghanistan … I mean Libya … I mean Somalia … Anyway.”

Dude did Hitler in reverse. First he committed the war crimes THEN became a mediocre painter. His presidency a tragedy for the US and the world.

[fwef]

So George, about those weapons of mass destruction?
