In the story written on Nov. 14, 2007, Geography lesson meets Iraq war, a few errors have been found.
The figure cited as being spent on the Iraq war as of November 2007 was incorrect and should have been reported as $466 billion. Additionally, the four questions used by the speaker to open his presentation were: How many of you believe the Iraq war was really about WMDs? How many of you believe the Iraq war was really about democracy? How many of you believe the Iraq war was really about oil? How many of you believe the Iraq war was really about Israel? The Daily Eastern News regrets the error.
