Does Iraq matter to us? Yes, because it has
Oil. Should we trade with them? Certainly. Invade them and murder them? No, that
is crime. Bush and
Blair are guilty as Hell. So are Brown and
Obama. Does the cost of invasion mean saving money? Very
far from it. Oil prices have soared since Bush used the 9/11
Job as an excuse for war. Then of course there are the men's lives lost. We
forget about the broken men who come back - unless they are family. Brown weeps
a few crocodile tears when he wants votes then keeps them short of the kit they
need to do the job they are ordered to do. Here are some little essays on the
place.
Neocons Wanted War
Neocons wanted war on Iraq for Israel but Pat doesn't quite say that. But Stephen Walt & John Mearsheimer, both eminent political scientists do in so many words - see Lesson #2: in Iraq War Lessons.
Depleted Uranium
Was used by the Americans in Iraq. Is it necessary? No! Does it cause
appalling birth defects in children born of fathers who were out there? Yes.
They are the most horrible things I have ever seen but the
Mainstream Media in
Western Civilization are not
forthcoming about it. See some of the results at
American Information Blockades.
Russians in Syria - Mission Accomplished
That is what Gwynne Dyer tells
us. He lectured at Sandhurst Military College so he has the right background.
Stopping Islamics spilling over into Russia sounds like a reasonable idea. It is
not what Cameron is doing to us; he is inciting them with bribes etc.
It's The Oil
Well,
who would have thought it? Oil men like
Bush
just for starters. Iraq has a quarter of the world's oil, worth around
$30 TRILLION! America has five permanent bases there. Guess who runs the place.
Given that Jews run Bush,
Obama,
Clinton et al you just might think the head
office in Tel Aviv but that aspect is not touched on.
Iraq War Lessons
Stephen Walt tells us among other things that this war was set up by
Neocon Jews, opportunists and
Useful Idiots. It
was done by Jews, for Jews to Iraq using
Americans; they paid with life, limb and treasure.
Michael Yon Tells It Like It Is
Michael Yon has enemies in the
US Army as a result. The public relations bods don't like someone telling
the truth. The men think he is all right.
PS His pictures are good too.
A Marine reports from Iraq
A
Marine makes sense. How competent are the enemy? An important issue. He does
not ask why men were there in the first place. We should all do that.
Casualty States Iraq
Men pay a price. Some are dead. Others are going to be
casualties for the rest of their lives. Who cares? Not the politicians who
sent them there. I don't think this was meant to be released into the wild.
Iraq And
Brits
Brits are out there. Brits are soldiering well. Why are they
there? They should ask, they really should. Corrupt politicians, stupid
politicians, some combination are the answers. Stealing oil for Israel is
the objective.
Iraq Going
Wrong
Invading Iraq was a good idea, wasn't it? Taking it sounded
easy enough. Stealing the oil sounded like a good idea. Holding it is
another ball game. Using the tactics of Jews in Palestine is going to make
matters worse not better.
Iraq What works and what
doesn't
A Marine reports from Iraq. The old weapons are the best
weapons. The M1911 is a favourite. So is the .50 cal Browning.
Iraq,
Why It Happened
Try stealing oil as an explanation. You will not be wrong but
there are other reasons; not creditable reasons, just reasons.
Questions were asked. Questions were answered. The truth did not emerge.
Lockerbie Job
Is very political. Vengeance was the
motive. Convicting a Libyan for it was done to take the heat off Syria(?)
because it had to be onside for
Desert Storm, the retaking of Kuwait.
Scott Ritter
Scott was the weapons inspector who went to Iraq, told the
truth and got sacked big time. The agenda comes first with the truth as a
bad second.
The Americans Gave Us The Will To Fight Says Tribal Leader
QUOTE
'The Americans gave us the will to fight when they showed us how barbaric they
were. Fallujah does not deserve this barbarity. Where is the world community?
Where is the Arab League? A thousand damnations on them. We will fight and we
will die, alone if need be. This is the beginning of the end for the Americans
and Israelis here.'

Losing In Iraq & Afghanistan
If, having read
Losing Small Wars, I had to identify the single most important
failing about the disastrous British interventions in Iraq and,
currently Afghanistan, it would be the failure on the part of the
British government and its military advisers to spell out quite clearly
why the British armed forces were ever deployed to these two parts of
the Middle East. Factor out the obvious lies disseminated by Blair and
his political-military clique that Iraq was armed with weapons of mass
destruction (WMDs) and that these weapons posed a threat to Britain and
there was no justified reason for Britain’s ever having had anything to do
with the US-led invasion of Iraq.
Uranium Ore Allegedly Found In Iraq [
27 July 2010 ]
Iraq War Illegal And Blair Is A War Criminal
[ 24 January 2010 ] A senior legal figure close to the discussions at the time
told the Observer: "The advice that was given consistently in the
Foreign Office [by Wood] was that war would be unlawful without a second
resolution. The important thing is that Foreign Office advice was given
consistently in one way, and then the attorney general, right at the end, gave
advice to the contrary. That is what will come out."......... Wood's deputy at the time, former Foreign Office lawyer
Elizabeth Wilmshurst, who resigned two days before the war because she believed
the invasion was a "crime of aggression", will appear at the inquiry after Wood
on Tuesday
Chilcot Report - Some Comments
[ 14 July 2016 ]
Baghdad Wants Americans Out So Get Out [ 7 January 2020 ] What provoked Iraq’s Parliament into demanding the ouster of all U.S.
troops? First, the five December U.S. strikes on Iraq’s Popular Mobilization
Forces in retaliation for a dozen Kataib Hezbollah rocket attacks on U.S.
bases, which killed a contractor and wounded four U.S. soldiers. Then came
President Donald Trump’s decision to launch a drone-strike and kill Iranian
General Qassem Soleimani at Baghdad International Airport. Killed in the
same strike was the Shiite Iraqi leader of Kataib Hezbollah............ What a difference a presidential decision can make. Two months ago, crowds were in the streets of Iraq protesting Iran’s
dominance of their politics. Crowds were in the streets of Iran cursing that
regime for squandering the nation’s resources on imperial adventures in
Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen. Things were going America’s way. Now it is the Americans who are the targets of protests............. Oddly, what the America-haters of the Middle East seek is what Soleimani
wanted, and what Trump promised in his campaign of 2016 — an end to U.S.
involvement in the forever wars of the Middle East. Perhaps, rather than sending troops into Iraq and Kuwait to defend U.S.
troops already there, we should accede to the local nationalist demands,
start bringing our troops home, and let Iranians, Iraqis, Libyans, Syrians,
Yemenis and Afghans settle their quarrels.

Anger
and shame assailed me when I was reading Losing Small Wars: anger
with a corrupt Prime Minister (Blair) for the lies used to justify the
deployment of British forces to Iraq and Afghanistan and the
professional collusion of senior officers and the security services in
the dissemination of the lies; and shame for the untold misery inflicted
on Iraqi and Afghan civilians, the deaths and maiming of our soldiers
and the lies used to comfort their families and to mislead the public.
As if this was not bad enough, we are confronted at every turn in these
badly judged deployments with far too many examples of incompetent
political and military leadership in theatre. With all these failings
and the scale of the invasion and occupation in Iraq, and the NATO
mission in Afghanistan, Ledwidge’s title hardly does justice to what is
revealed. In any case these are hardly ‘small wars’: the lying alone was
and remains even now on a mass industrial scale.

(AP)
The last major remnant of Saddam Hussein's nuclear program
- a huge stockpile of concentrated natural uranium reached a Canadian port
Saturday to complete a secret U.S. operation that included a two-week airlift
from Baghdad and a ship voyage crossing two oceans.
The removal of 550 metric tons of "yellowcake" - the seed material for
higher-grade nuclear enrichment - was a significant step toward closing the
books on Saddam's nuclear legacy. It also brought relief to U.S. and Iraqi
authorities who had worried the cache would reach insurgents or smugglers
crossing to Iran to aid its nuclear ambitions.

This bomb factory is

Tony Blair's decision to take Britain to war in Iraq was illegal, the
Foreign Office's former chief legal adviser will tell the Chilcot inquiry this
week. The Observer has been told that Sir Michael Wood, who was the
FO's most senior lawyer, is ready to reveal that, in the run-up to war, he was
of the opinion that the conflict would have been unlawful without a second UN
resolution............. His testimony will come the day before the appearance of
Lord Goldsmith, the former attorney general, who is said to have dropped his
legal objections days before the invasion, following intense pressure from Blair
and his closest advisers, and the US authorities.

What's the difference between Blair and Bush and the
other pair, Hitler and Stalin? The latter were more honest. Adolf's real crime
was being the loser but he had the courage to serve then what it took to top
himself.
The Chilcot Report
may be longer than The Bible. It is about as useful.
Sean Gabb, England's leading
Libertarian tells us that
The Establishment Left are evil. Blowing
children to pieces can have that effect on one in criminal wars. That same
Establishment Left claim the
Moral high ground while destroying civilization.
They follow on from the Bolsheviks who murdered
millions and never apologized. Yes, Blair is a
War Criminal On The Run but he will be
allowed to get away with it.
PS Even
The Guardian is not doing Blair any favours.
Chilcot's Report has produced plenty of evidence for the prosecution. I
am willing to be the hangman.

shitty little country in the Middle East, one full of vicious
