The truth is out there somewhere. Tony Blair is alleging that his present predicament is down to conspiracy theorists. And that he is proud about having gone to war with Iraq. Meanwhile, Jack Straw who was opposed to the war, is promising a full public inquiry once Tony Blair stands down.
I remember the images on TV of Saddam Hussein's statue being toppled. Recently, a statue of Margaret Thatcher has been erected in the House of Commons by the very people who toppled her from power. There is some hypocrisy about all of this.
Iraq is a foreign country. It posed no threat to either Britain or America, and it was a breach of international law for us to go in and depose the president. Years ago we used to go into foreign lands supposedly to teach the savages about religion, and whilst they knelt down and closed their eyes to pray we would strip the country of its natural resources; gold, silver, diamonds and other precious stones. Here it is no different, except that it was the oil that the American Empire sought to liberate and not the Iraqi people.
This has nothing to do with 9/11, this is not a war on terror, this is about two rich and powerful nations plundering the wealth of another nation. It should be equated with street robbery, it is nothing short of a mugging. And the politicians are mugging the people into believing something else. I wish America would wake up from its American Dream and see it for what it really is...a nightmare!
