(Credit: AP/Manuel Balce Ceneta/John Locher) This article originally appeared on AlterNet. The CODEPINK Tribunal taking place Dec. 1 and 2, and live streamed by the Real News, is a historic collection of testimonies about the lies and costs of the Iraq war. It takes on new meaning with the incoming Trump administration, and the hawks who are flocking to join that administration with their sights set on starting yet another war in the Middle East, this time in Iran. My testimony started with the first CODEPINK action against the war that took place in Congress.
