Iraq Inquiry

Wait till you see me without my medication :wink:

I agree with all what you say, set aside the oil and look deeper. The strategic position of israel in the` Holy land ` to the americans is vital, the cost of keeping the land free from Islamic governance is enormous both financially and more importantly life. We have seen the mis-treatment from the powerful IDF against the mightless Palestinians, each israeli death brings about the death of 2,3,4,or more Palestinians, largely civilian.
My point was that, the aggression against Iraq has done very little but fuel the suspicions of Mullahs and Imams the world over, this together with the brazen american support for the captivity and suppression of the Gazans and Palestinians will, i think, diminish any hope of true peace in this world. The Iranians will be the next target in this millenium crusade. people dispise the Muslims for their support and anger at the way the western world has failed time and again to enforce the conventions broke by the israel. This must be tended to, each new Muslim born in time will suffer the same mentality, why?. Because justice has not been delivered and now with this obama, it seems it will not be delivered in the short term at least. There are many very bad times ahead for the people of the middle east, not least the Muslims. Dig a bunker.

Taking on board minim’s point (and yes even that of Gazlan) … let’s agree that the war against Saddam was ‘wrong’. Call it ‘regime change’; call it a war to remove WMDs; call it what you like…… but so what anyway??

However, we will all spend millions that we can’t afford on a bunch of lawyers and civil servants so that the chattering classes can say “Told you so”
