I know they can print as many dollars as they could get away with, but some old habits die hard. Like . . . So, Mr Bremer, where did all the money go? |

Hans Blix was not convinced either way - also the question, in part,

I wonder if B95000 even knows what we are discussing here? That's what makes it exactly all the more exciting. US had such a turnover and yet they had to steal poor Iraqis' money? Just go up a bit and see: So, Mr Bremer, where did all the money go?

However hard you huff and however hard you puff, today, the whole world including all the educated serious Americans hold this war as a grave crime against humanity. With whatever words you may try to clothe the US, it just stands as a filthy war criminal. Sir, it's not my fault that your country has got a bit of a smelly name right now. If you really love your country so, please, just correct her in deed, not just with such immature posts. Your Bi-Partisan Commission didn't touch "Who had Done 9/11". The world knows why the commission was set up. My friend, the world thinks. We are not just Americans. On US poverty, please, read some serious US publications. |

First of all, Kofi Annan was found innocent of any wrongdoing with the Food for Oil program. Are you not aware of the recently discovered memo that indicates Annan was very much aware of and mysteriously silent about his son's activities, and that his son is still under investigation (under indictment, actually, I think) and pretty obviously clearly guilty? (Still, he has probably acquired enough money to buy a different verdict.)

Secondly, Hans Blix was not a supporter of the Invasion of Iraq he was a supporter of giving the Inspectors who were in the country more time to look for the WMD. Blix has but one area of expertise. Bush had many other factors to consider. For example, it was possible that Blix had been corrupted, as had so many other UN officials, by Saddam's billions. More importantly, because of the possibilty of chem and bio weapons in Saddam's arsenal, U.S. and allied military personnel might have to wear heavy chem and bio suits; so the operation had to begin before the hottest weather began -- or wait at least six months. Waiting would cause serious diplomatic, logistical, and morale problems. Then, consider the prospect of having to deal with a murderous, lying piece of crap Saddam for the rest of your term in office and leaving that mess and his even more depraved sons to future administrations....

Sadaam was cooperating as Blix stated at the United Nation Security Council prior to the US invasion which demanded the inspectors leave the country. Really? After ten years of not co-operating, Saddam suddenly seems reasonable? Why might that be? And for how long would that go on? Do you suppose that maybe he was co-operating only because a huge American force was ready to invade? What would happen the moment that force left? If you had any knowledge of military matters, you would know that you can't let an enemy jerk you back and forth like that. Once the American force was in place, it was too late for Saddam. he should have abided by the terms of his surrender. Once it was clear that he had could not be trusted, he had to go. Existing WMD becomes a secondary matter.

I was very upset about this previously but have put it behind me to try and face our current difficulties in the security of Iraq as well as the rest of the world in the face of terrorism. Bush undoubtedly used poor intellegence as a primary source for support for the invasion as shown by former ambassidor Wilson's goverment ordered investigation into the Uranium supposedly purchased from africa which led Rove to tell reporters of his wifes identity leading to the criminal investigation now underway. My understanding is that (1) the British stand behind the "yellow cake" intelligence report, even though Wilson could not independently confirm it, and (2) that Rove did not disclose his wife's identity but simply said, "Yeah, I've heard that, too" when Novak said to him, "I heard Wilson's wife works fot the CIA." It has all been politicized to the point of not being recognizable.
Peace.

1. We each bring the Universe into being in the act of perceiving it, but perception is not reality.
2. The medium IS the message, so a true religion of peace cannot be spread by threat of war. |

So that was not the usual way of outing someone? Sad, but that's how you lose credibility - by having a readymade answer for everything in the world. That's is known as S P I N. Gracias |
