The new Iraq Propaganda War - looking back
Printable Version | [eMail this article!] |Maggie O'Kane has a timely piece in the Guardian (UK) reminding us of the lies of the last Gulf War and the warnings for the impending one. This is a critical read. Below is an excerpt (12/5/02 Guardian/UK). Click the link to see the full article.
"The chances of Saddam Hussein using chemical and biological weapons if attacked are, according to the testimony of the CIA to the US Senate intelligence committee on October 7, "pretty high" - a scenario that even one of greatest hawks in US history, Brent Scowcroft, former national security adviser to George Bush senior, says would lead to meltdown in the Middle East. As of December 7, when Iraq is expected to produce its definitive dossier, there should be no illusions: no matter what Baghdad discloses, America and almost certainly Britain are going to war. The "material breach", if it does not happen by itself, will be manufactured, so wringing consent for the second Gulf war just as consent was manufactured with breathtaking cynicism in 1991. "

people die because of rush and hash decisions. why aren't the UN doing nothing?
The war is not the answer to anything...Bush is no thinking about the Iraqi citizens, he is thinking about what is going to happen after Saddam is dead he is going to have a new colony with all the oil that he can have..basically if Bush cares about the citizens he would never go to war because he is involving the citizens when he does that. ME as an Iraqi citizen is totally aganist what Bush is doing and think that we can handle ourselves we do not ned another country to come and "liberate" us from our own leader.
