Subject: RE: BS: Realizations about Iraq
The Iraq war, as even you should know, Mr. Guy, was sold to the US public on the basis of the WMD which were never found--and the specious link between Saddam and 9-11 which the Bush regime pushed for over a year.

Why do I think we've been over this ground before?

Since you must be somewhat slow--once more with feeling: it does you no good to quote UN resolutions on Iraq. If they are UN resolutions it is up to the UN to authorize the enforcement of them by military means. This the UN emphatically did not do--it never gave Bush the green light to use force.


Also, hope you heard what was said at the press conference this week:

When asked what the connection between Saddam and 9-11 was, Bush said "Nothing".

A far cry from the propaganda campaign the US was privileged to experience in the run-up to the March 2003 invasion.

Remember for instance the 2003 State of the Union "Before 9-11 many in the world believed Saddam Hussein could be contained"

Gee, I wonder why Saddam and 9-11 were linked that way.

I repeat--Bush belongs in the lowest circle of Hell for starting an unnecessary war--and marshalling support for it by a despicable propaganda campaign.

Would you care to join him there?
