That's not the Justification Bush and Blair Used

Reader comment on item: Iraq's Weapons & The Road to War

Submitted by Matt Pack (Australia), Jun 4, 2003 at 05:10

Your facts of the broken armistice may be correct. However, this is not the argument that Bush and Blair used to justify this war. They sold the war on the basis of WMD's that were in exisitence and that were able to be laucnhed "with 45 mins" notice. These have not been found, and the US justification for it's war have so far proven to be a smokescreen of rhetoric to further it's imperialistic aims.
