The Bush/Blair Deceit Is Huge

Comment by Larry Ross, June13, 2005

Bush and Blair connived to deceive their own people and the world, so as to make war on Iraq as the following article documents. Over 100,000 people were killed as a result of the deception of these two leaders, their staff and Ministers. Adding a new dimension of diabolical evil to their plot, they threatened to use nuclear weapons if Iraq resisted their invasion with any weapons which Bush and Blair classified as WMD. That could mean escalation to a nuclear WWIII.

Surely this is a new depth of international criminality - planning to deceive the world in order to wage a war that
could become nuclear and destroy the world. Two democratically elected leaders of two great nations threatening to destroy a people - even the world - in order to get their way. That this can happen is so horrible it's hard to believe.

This is nuclear hubris gone mad. Among other things, it shows how they despise their own people. They are to be fooled and some sent to kill and die in war. The people are to pay for the privilege, while their leaders and colleagues, get wealthy in the process.

Who said absolute monarchy and dictatorship is dead? It's not.

Ministers Were Told of Need for Gulf War ‘Excuse’

Michael Smith, June 12, 2005

MINISTERS were warned in July 2002 that Britain was committed to taking part in an American-led invasion of Iraq and they had no choice but to find a way of making it legal.

The warning, in a leaked Cabinet Office briefing paper, said Tony Blair had already agreed to back military action to get rid of Saddam Hussein at a summit at the Texas ranch of President George W Bush three months earlier.

The briefing paper, for participants at a meeting of Blair’s inner circle on July 23, 2002, said that since regime change was illegal it was “necessary to create the conditions” which would make it legal.

This was required because, even if ministers decided Britain should not take part in an invasion, the American military would be using British bases. This would automatically make Britain complicit in any illegal US action.
