Iraq was harboring terrorists when Gen. Schwarzkoph under Bush the first got Iraq to sign a cease fire and agree to the no-fly zone. Prior to that whole gulf war, iraq had gassed the kurdish people. We didnt do anything. We only acted when Iraq invaded Kuwait. And we did not persist to baghdad and kill the leader.
Many of the so-called "reasons" for gulf war 2 are just twisting in the wind.
We, by which I mean ultimately Bush, decided to invade Iraq after 9/11 because it was low hanging fruit. Make no mistake. Dont let any political party steer your opinion away from the simple facts here. The UN council was the proper venue to reach the conclusion to invade, and when that didnt go our way.. we denegrated the french ambassador and insinuated that france was on iraq's side because they had a deal to help iraq build nuclear reactors. We dumped out wine and we decided that the way to cut potatoes was not "french" anymore, it was "freedom". These things are all ridiculous but true examples of the lengths our government went to, in order to sell the iraq war to our country. Just make no mistake about this.
If Blair has nothing to worry about, then he has nothing to worry about. Whats with this fear of judicial systems lately? It sounds like people have something to worry about when they fear a fair trial.
