We had no business in that non-war to start with of course. We
engineered the entire thing, killed then and since, directly and
indirectly, a good million Iraqi people and now we want to do
more. The weapon inspections were also used by us to find
targets to bomb in our ongoing actions afterwards that had
nothing to do with WMD. We systematically destroyed a lot of
the general manufacturing ability of the country. If inspectors
return there need to be safeguards on what they can and cannot
do. We would demand the same if inspectors came to our country.
Actually we just blatantly refuse under what we consider the
perfectly reasonable assumption that any such would be spies for
their governments. Funny, that.
And, this entire thing is not about Saddam. It is not about
WMD. It is about getting as much of our firepower in the area as
possible to control the oil. The rest is rationalization.
