Iraq Enquiry     24-Nov-09 01:21 PM    
Watch this live from now on at: http://www.iraqinquiry.org.uk/ Of course later we will have Tony trying to talk his way out of it, which I am sure he will. This absurd pointless War, into which we were drawn in by the Yanks, besides costing many servicemen, US, UK and others, their lives, is believed to have left around 7 million Iraqis dead, injured, homeless, and financially ruined. It would be great to see the reasons ...

Re: Iraq Enquiry     24-Nov-09 02:47 PM    
What is really interesting is when we get to the time Sadam sent to the UN a very detailed technical report of 1200 pages of his current conventional weapons, and some previous, but by then obseleted work on WMD. This was rejected totally at once by the US, UK, and some, but not all, others. In fact this do$%^&ent (rejection of which formed a distinct reason for the War) was totally accurate, up to date, and true. Comments by the Enquiry on these facts would be most welcome later ....

Well it seems the Enquiry so far points to this - nobody in the US, UK, or indeed anywhere had a clue what weapons Sadam had - but - the Yanks were all ready set up on the border with m$%^& of bombs, planes, soldiers, Rolling Stones CDs, a bit of Pot, and indeed some genuine WMD, and George Bush knew it would be truly great to be a War President, so he said "Lets go - we are the Yanks - we do what we like - its Show Time". Sadam had wound him up too long. His Brit poodle Tony just tagged along. And that was it .....

Louise,

Whilst we both appear to be interested in this enquiry I'm intrigued as to where you get a figure of 7M dead. Do you have a source other than your bottom ?

No offence intended ;)

I think he meant a grand total of 7 million who have been and I quote:
'dead, injured, homeless, and financially ruined'

so many of those would be just financially damaged.

however there will be quite a few Iraqis who have and are making lot of money due to the opportunities available now.

Re: Iraq Inquiry - Sadam winds up Bush ...     27-Nov-09 12:12 PM    
What is coming out today is that the Yanks had lined up m$%^& of tanks, soldiers, missiles, WMD, on the Iraq border. The intelligence was very patchy, nobody had any idea at all if Sadam had any WMD, the British had grave doubts on it, but Wild West Bush had an itchy trigger finger, so despite all this he decided to go. A bit like the "Grand old Duke of York" ....

I think in future the British and other countries should not "rubber stamp" foreign adventures by the United States. Their judgement is very often lacking, I think it means the end to the US acting unilateraly. Its like having a mad dog which in worthy cases is great to use and have as an ally but in others, like Iraq, should be .... muzzled.

Off again soon. The story so far. Wild West Hero George Bush (Lone Ranger) and his sidekick Tony Blair (Kemo Saba) were in love. They hated Sadam (Black Jake) because he used to wind them up. Now George had lots of Gattling guns, and itched to use them on Sadam. Tony who loved him just went along. Geoge made up stories that Sadam had hidden dynamite. There was none. George who was not that bright but who happened to be US President could not stand it any more, and went in against advice with lover Tony, saying if there was no hidden dynamite it was just to get rid of Sadam. So he organised "Shock and Awe". The story continues ....

This continues the general theme being that this shambles was mainly caused by the Yanks, who fouled up big time. Since Tony and George were in love, the UK went along. This Enquiry of course has no teeth - it cannot take any action - nothing will happen against those guilty. Guilty that is for loss of thousands of lives .... Like all reports it will just be ... filed. Good fun though ... at .... http://www.iraqinquiry.org.uk/ .... Live now ....

Really interesting stuff this time - the Yanks had no idea at all what would happen after the "war", they had not thought about it. The British had - but in the light of the love affair between Tony and George - and because Brits traditionally do whatever the Yanks decide in their "foreign adventures" imposing their own form of Democracy worldwide - did nothing. Hence both US and UK left huge arms dumps completely un guarded. Insurgency bods moved in, stole it, and hid it. It was later used to blow up thousands of Iraqis, some Yanks and Brits too. Yanks of course are totally blameless ... for anything at all .... ever ... more later ....
