Who’s to blame for the Iraq war?

A not-so-trivial quiz Maidhc Ó Cathail names and shames the top 20 politicians, academics and policy makers – all con men and all Zionist Jews – who lied and conspired to steer the US towwards aggression against the Iraqi people. This month marks the seventh anniversary of the invasion of Iraq. Despite the passage of time, there is still much confusion, some of it deliberate, about why America made that fateful decision. The following questions are intended to clarify who’s to blame for the Iraq war. 1.. » read more

Official Dogma: Iraq War a Success

American Elites Abandon Their Faux Regret Over Iraq The New York Times' Tom Friedman, who did as much as any single individual to persuade large numbers of Democrats and "moderates" to support the invasion of Iraq, today writes: Former President George W. Bush's gut instinct that this region craved and needed democracy was always right. It should have and could have been pursued with much better planning and execution. This war has been extraordinarily painful and costly.  But democracy was never going to have a virgin birth in a place like Iraq, which has never known any such thing.. » read more

Iraqis walk through fire to vote; blasts claim 38 lives

BAGHDAD, March 7: Bomb blasts and rocket and mortar fire killed 38 people as Iraqis voted on Sunday in an election they hoped would distance their nascent democracy from years of sectarian slaughter as US troops pack up to leave. The explosions rumbled across Baghdad and other cities after insurgents vowed to wreck voting for Iraq’s second full-term parliament since the 2003 US invasion, a vote watched closely by global oil companies planning to invest billions to develop the country’s dilapidated oilfields. Turnout among the 19 million eligible voters was not clear. It could take three days to get results in an election that will prove vital to US President Barack Obama’s plan to halve US troop levels by August and withdraw completely by end-2011. “I have great respect for the millions of Iraqis who refused to be deterred by acts of violence, and who exercised their right to vote today,” Mr Obama said in a statement.. » read more

US disinformation hoax: Saddam Hussein's execution was a fake

Brainwashed Saddam lookalike is hung in Baghdad The man hung in Baghdad on the 30th December 2006 for crimes against humanity was not Saddam Hussein. The Former Iraqi President died in March 2003. He was badly injured in intelligence-led precision bombing by the Americans on Thursday 20th March 2003, and died later that day or very shortly afterwards. The individual who was held by the Americans for three years under the name of Saddam Hussein was a politically expedient lookalike. He was a cousin of Saddam and his body language was recognisably different from that of Saddam himself.. » read more

Sneaking Up On Armageddon

  Indications of planned nuclear war in the Middle East continue to come in.  I’ve created a new page to keep the reports all in one place.  There are two new reports, and more coming. Admiral Mike Mullen made a quick tour of our Middle East allies and we found that the purpose of his trip was just as we suspected: To put the finishing touches on war plans.  He also admitted, in reversed speech, that the much-touted withdrawal of U.. » read more

US Using Iraqi Political Discord to Justify Continuance of Occupation

As Iraqi national elections on March 7 approach, violence and political discord in the country have escalated dramatically.   On February 22, Gen. Ray Odierno, the top US commander in Iraq, announced that the US was preparing contingency plans to delay the withdrawal of all combat forces from Iraq if violence or political instability increases after the national elections scheduled for March 7.   There are approximately 96,000 US military personnel in Iraq.

Iraq to Rehire 20,000 Hussein-Era Army Officers

BAGHDAD — The Iraqi government said Thursday that it would reinstate 20,000 army officers who served under Saddam Hussein, a surprising move given that Prime Minister Nuri Kamal al-Maliki has focused his campaign in the coming parliamentary elections around denouncing the former Baath government. Mohammed al-Askari, a spokesman for the Ministry of Defense, said the prime minister approved the reinstatement of the officers, which he said would begin immediately. With just over one week before Iraq holds its first national elections since 2005, the announcement, made on state-run television, was greeted with skepticism by Mr. Maliki’s rivals. “This is purely a means of trying to gain more votes,” said Mayson al-Damalogi, a spokesman for Iraqiya, a coalition of Sunni and secular candidates headed by former Prime Minister Ayad Allawi.. » read more
