Thread Name: BS: Iraq War Lies
Subject: Iraq War Lies
The Iraq oil-invasion was enabled by terrorising us with the threat of imminent nuclear conflict. That threat was a lie. The real reasons now stand out clearly: OIL and ISRAEL.


Attacking Iraq was achieved by terrorising the public with the threat of potentially NUCLEAR attacks:

Attacks that could be launched WITHIN 45 MINUTES!

Attacks that might be directed against the West!


LIES! There was no such threat. These were ridicuclous claims, supported by forged evidence. And they knew it.


Chief UN weapons expert Doctor Hans Blix says:
Mr Blair was "fundamentally mistaken" over the "45 minutes" claim.

The CIA says:
The claim that Saddam sought to buy uranium "was based on false paperwork which American agents revealed as forgeries."

They said Iraq was a threat to the West. LIES!

They said the oil would be held "in trust for the Iraqi people". LIES! Now Americans are controlling oil sales and spending the proceeds on companies with ties to the Bush regime!

A Decade of American attacks have crippled the Iraq. Now the corporations that pushed for war and funded the politicians are making money from rebuilding Iraq!


The public debate is neatly avoiding the real issue. Clearly we they lied about the real reasons for attacking Iraq. So what were the real reasons?

Why did they lie? Why was it so important to attack and occupy Iraq?
(starting with the oilfields and then neglecting to protect schools and hospitals!)


1: Iraq is the world's second biggest source of oil. But the oil comes to the surface naturally, so that extraction is cheaper and easier than anywhere else.

2: Iraq was a significant and nearby opponent of Israel's illegal occupation of Palestinian territory. If Iraq posed a threat to anybody then it was only to Israel. (The U.S. government funds and arms the illegal Israeli occupation, which is what started the Arab-American cycle of hatred.)

Politics has become synonymous with corruption, dishonesty and evil. Our governments are using our taxes, our national resources and the lives of our military personnel for illegal attacks robbery to make money for themselves and their freinds.


The U.S. Military is now in the Iraqi Oil Business:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/3056549.stm

"Iraqi oil deals up for grabs ... The US military has invited bids for two contracts - worth up to $1bn (£611m)


Aghganistan: The pipeline planned (in 1998!) is going ahead.

Iraq: The oil is about to go on the market.

Iran, Syria and other oilcountries may soon be attacked and robbed of their oil - using more lies and more terror if they are required.


The oil is being stolen. It is not being held in trust for Iraq as promised. Instead Americans are controlling oil sales - and spending the money on companies linked to the Bush administration!

Hamid Karzai, the U.S. puppet leader of Afghanistan, used to work for the oil company Unocal.

Unocal was the main oil company involved in the Centgas plan to build an oil pipeline through Afghanistan.

The plans were made in the 1990's - long before the September 11 attacks.

The U.S. government agreed at that time that the Taleban would have to be removed from power before the oil pipeline could be built.

The attacks of September 11 enabled the start of the oilwars, the removal of the Taleban, and the building of the pipeline.

Bush has close oil-business ties to the Saudi royal family, who had close ties to Osama bin Laden.

Bush has blocked the investigation into the intelligence failings which allowed suspects - who were under FBI surveilance - to continue with the attacks of September 11!


Murder, theft, fraud, deception.

Bush, Blair and their corporate puppeteers are criminals who kill.
They should not be allowed to get away with it just because they kill thousands instead of one or two people.
They must face trial.
