Totally agree, the unfounded (yep there are no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq) invasion of Iraq is in many eyes an illegal act.
Iraq invaded Kuwait and a world funded coalition sprang into force to evict them....oil driven no doubt.
Iraq were accused of harbouring weapons of mass destruction (false as now proved) and for genocide of the Kurds (fact) and a US and British force INVADED.
Deaths of civilians continue on a scale that has crossed the thin line of civil war and local genocide.
Saddam Hussain, albeit probably guilty of initiating the order directly to test chemical/biological weapons on the Kurds was not tried for war crimes in the Hague, why not?
To many questions that require to be answered, the over riding factor is that all the contracts doled out so far to help re-build the country since the illegal invasion have been given to American companies.
You're born, you take s**t. You get out in the world, you take more s**t. You climb a little higher, you take less s**t. Till one day you're up in the rarefied atmosphere and you've forgotten what s**t even looks like. Welcome to the layer cake son.
Good synopsis.
