I have covered this area before here, and I am going back to it in light of Bliar's Jewish Chutzpah vaudeville performance at the inquiry recently.
The Chilcott inquiry is important at many levels, not just for the sake of morals, national image, but also for the sake of state accountability, and how to avoid such things repeating themselves in the future in relation to Iran and other such places.
To be sure the UK has been in many wars since 1066, but with the progression of time, Britain as a mature sophisticated state should be able to conduct what one may term truly just and necessary wars which ultimately serve Britain's real interests over and above getting involved in wars merely to please friends such as Israel and the USA, and not much else as the rational for entering into the war against Iraq.
The illegality of war in Iraq:
- Fake intelligence from Italy, in the form of Niger Uranium allegations. We could have a number of people from Italy, and the USA invited to the inquiry to talk about this important saga, and how the drum beat for war was created falsely.
- The false claim that Iraq, broken and neutered after 12 years of stringent sanctions was some how in a position to attack the "West" within 45 minutes, with non-existent WMD's.
- The false claim that Iraq, broken and neutered after 12 years of stringent sanctions was some how in a position to attack the "West" within 45 minutes, with non-existent WMD's, even though the Northern part of the country was effectively under Kurdish control operating autonomously, and the Southern part, suffering little effective control by Saddam's Ba'athists...........How do these Jew Chutzpah people explain that a nation dismembered, and neutered, with possibly 1,000,000 dead from stringent sanctions between 1991---2003, could still pose as a serious threat to the "West" in any shape or form?
- Saddam's Iraq by 2003 had effectively become a failed state with very little central control, and Saddam the leader of just 20% of the Iraqi people....the Sunnis. Former Baathists from Iraq and others could be invited to the inquiry to explain the real Iraq in 2003, rather than the imaginary one created by Bush/Bliar Co.
- Allegations of mobile WMD weapons labs, which did not exist.
- The repeated efforts by government officials who subsequently resigned stating that Britain's involvement in the war was illegal under International law.
- The repeated attempts by Saddam to seek safe passage to the UAE with guarantees for him and his family, which the British through the Americans must have known about.
- Why did Bliar think Saddam was a monster who needed removing, who in addition posed a serious threat to the "West"......when Saddam sent clear signals to the Americans and others that he wanted a guaranteed safe passage out of Iraq for him and his family.
- Why did Bliar want to wage war, which would inevitably kill British servicemen; cost Billions of pounds, when Saddam sent clear indicators/feelers that he wanted a escape route out of Iraq for him and his family.
- Saddam's military of 2003 was a shadow of its former self, numbering about 400,000 men who were not regularly paid, and lacked spares for their Soviet era equipment.....70% of Saddam's military had been destroyed in the first Gulf War. Queue evidence of former military officers from the Iraqi military at the inquiry.
- Saddam was installed by the Americans, according to Adel Darwish, London based Arab Journalist. Saddam sought advice and received American encouragement to attack Iran in 1980 via Brzezinski in Jordan. Saddam asked permission from the American ambassador to invade Kuwait, which she cryptically gave in 1990; hardly the macho rogue independent Third World dictator purely acting on his own. If Saddam was a monster he was an American created monster............Would very much like Adel Darwish and other Arab experts give evidence to state that Saddam was indeed an American created, and ARMED puppet.........as the saying goes in Iraq, "Out with the apprentice, and in with the master"
- The Americans owned Saddam's intelligence chief, and most of the Iraqi general staff by 2003 (This explains why the Iraqi military stood down, without offering resistance during the initial invasion), which the Bliar government so close to the American's would have known about surely, or should have known about...........If the Americans had that level of control of the Iraqi military, and Saddam is an alleged American installed puppet, how did Saddam's regime constitute a meaningful threat to the "West" with his non-existent WMD's? Would like American experts, and analysts who were familiar with this fact give evidence at the inquiry.
- The Americans owned Saddam's intelligence chief, and most of the Iraqi general staff by 2003 (This explains why the Iraqi military stood down, without offering resistance during the initial invasion), which the Bliar government so close to the American's would have known about surely, or should have known about........given this level of access to the Iraqi regime surely the Americans for certain would have been in a position to verify the true threat level of Saddam to the "West" and thus know for certain whether Saddam was still in possession of WMD's. Would like American experts to be invited to give evidence to the inquiry about this matter.
- The ISG, with over 1,400 staff looking for WMD's never found any.
- The UN inspectors did not think Saddam had any WMD's prior to the war.
- The IAEA did not think Saddam was working covertly on certain crude North Korea type nuke bombs.
- Saddam was surviving on the largess of the UN food for oil program after 1991, so where would Saddam get enough money to maintain his regime through the patronage system, AND rebuild his war torn country after the first Gulf War, AND still fund an expansive covert WMD's program?
- How would Saddam evade the extensive surveillance by UN WMD monitors, with their go anywhere, inspect everything responsibility and work of a decade?
- Why was Scott Ritter's significant information on the matter ignored. Could he be invited to the inquiry?
- Bush told Bliar in the January 2003 meeting, prior to the Iraqi invasion that after Iraq, he would invade Iran, and then a few other countries..................how many countries was Bliar willing to invade with the USA? What did Bliar THINK would be the cost of such extensive open ended wars for the UK? What did Bliar THINK would be the human cost of such open ended invasions? What did Blair THINK would be the diplomatic cost of such ongoing wars?
- What real preparations did the Bliar government make for the invasion of Iraq, in terms of post-conflict management? Under International law the occupying power must provide certain basic facilities once they occupy another country......did Blair as PM fully ensure that his policies complied with the legal responsibilities of an occupying power under International Law?
- At what stage did the UK government become fully aware of the mass killings of Iraqis whilst under occupation by foreign troops? What role did UK armed forces play in the mass killings.......evidence points to their participation in the mass killings. Who ordered it within the British military? The government must have known about this....and the creation of the 4 million refugees within Iraq, and outside. War crimes trial if they are really feasible would be directed against Bliar in this one single area.......1,300,000 Iraqis since killed, when the occupying powers deliberately dismantled the Iraqi state, and allowed chaos to ensue....often encouraging sectarian conflict, competition for power and even participating in the ethnic strife.
- What disproportionate role did Israel play in the drumbeat towards war in Iraq? How did that impact British policy? How would have Israel exerted influence through the Jewish lobby in the UK? To what extent did Lord Levy, and the rest of the tribesmen in the FO, and state structure influence British policy towards Saddam's Iraq?
- What steps did the Bliar government take to prevent this mass killing? Why didn't the Bliar government take clear measures to prevent this from happening as was their responsibility under International law, as an occupying power?
- Is Bliar Jewish? Which of his ancestors are Jewish? What constitutes real British foreign and military policy, and what constitutes Jewish tribal policy under Bliar?
- What benefits has Britain derived from the Mesopotamian misadventure? Economic benefits? Diplomatic benefits? Security benefits?
That the Chilcott inquiry will be a whitewash there is no doubt. The composition of the panel, and their general demeanor, lackluster questioning style, their all to apparent deference towards key individuals points in that direction. It was set up to appease the British public into thinking that some form of truth from the horrors of the Iraqi war could/would be found.
Bliars grandstanding, at the platform of the inquiry, wholly unopposed or challenged articulating his past crimes in a matter of fact way, and his future policies clearly indicates to the informed that the Chilcott inquiry was and is a complete sham.
But the real truth is much too unpalatable, so the Chilcott inquiry made up of Bliar junta sympathizers will not seek the real truth which is Bliars governments sheer criminality in conducting an illegal war in Iraq, where 200 odd British soldiers perished for no good reason, and 1,300,000 Iraqis have subsequently died under foreign occupation, all because of a war Saddam clearly wasn't seeking in the first place.
