Worst Lie Ever of the Day

Iraqi defector Rafid Ahmed Alwan al-Janabi, a driving force behind the Bush administration's decision to invade Iraq in 2003 when he falsified testimony regarding WMD's, confirms this week in a two-part BBC2 series, Modern Spies, that he made everything up.

Interviewer: "We went to war in Iraq on a lie. And that lie was your lie." Janabi: "Yes."
