The War on Iraq was an outrage! We all knew that Bush & co. were a bunch of dangerous demented neo-cons. Blair became wayward and way of course and out of touch. Bush and Blair buddies? Was that a factor? We all know about AIPAC and the pro-Israel Lobby distorting U.S. foreign policies for their own strategic self-interests. Is there some near equivalent in the U.K.?
How was it that the ludicrous hype about Saddam Hussein being able to launch missiles at British bases in Cyprus so readily 'swallowed' by gullible recipients of media reportage?
In the aftermath of the invasion, Kofi Annan, former UN Secretary-General stated that the war on Iraq was illegal. Surely that is sufficient grounds based on a non-partial credible source at the very pinnacle of the UN system to indict those who were involved.
The World Order, on that fateful day of the invasion, was overturned. It reverted back to the Suez Canal Tripartite aggression against Egypt. Are we to suffer the insuferable? Attacking and invading a sovereign state that was not attacking or invading anyone is unprecedented. It demolishes the Nuremburg-formed laws of war, after WWII, that deem this type of aggression of pre-emptive wars as unlawful. The Nazis had indulged in this on similar pretexts. The Nuremburgh Trials outlawed it as baseless.
