So, here it is in black & white - the real agenda behind the “we care for the Iraqi people and are going to war to liberate them”.
States explicitly that Saddam’s regime is only an excuse - objective is military dominance of Middle East ( and rest of thw world). Happy reading.
"Why is the British Prime Minister the only person who seems to be unaware of the US hawks’ agenda. "
"It’s heart-warming to hear Tony Blair’s concern for the plight of the Iraqi people and how the only possible way to help them is to bomb them with everything the Americans have.
Mr Blair’s sudden sympathy for the Iraqis’ political aspirations comes as a welcome relief after all these years of US, UK-led sanctions, which have caused the deaths of over half a million Iraqi children, according to the UN.
But I’m a bit worried that Tony may be deluding himself that his friends in the White House share his altruistic ideals. I’m sure Tony has been reading all the recent stuff about PNAC - “The Project For The New American Century” - but has he looked at their website? (www.newamericancentury.org)
…
They don’t split hairs at the PNAC. George W. Bush and his advisers’ stated aim is to ensure that America and American interests dominate the entire world for the foreseeable future. And what’s more they make no bones of the fact that they intend to achieve this without diplomacy - that’s old hat. What PNAC intend to do is enforce the Pax Americana through military might.
Does Tony Blair know that?
…
In fact, does Tony Blair know that President Bush’s advisers regard Saddam Hussein as merely an excuse for military action in the area? The PNAC Report of 2000 states: “the United States has for decades sought to play a more permanent role in Gulf regional security. While the unresolved conflict with Iraq provides the immediate justification, the need for a substantial American force presence in the Gulf transcends the issue of the regime of Saddam Hussein.”
So Iraq is merely “the immediate justification” and Saddam’s regime is not so important as establishing American military might in the Gulf.
Does Tony Blair know that?
…
On the other hand, if Tony Blair, has not read “Rebuilding Americas Defenses 2000” or gone to the PNAC website to learn exactly what motivates Rumsfeld, Cheney, Perle and Wolfowitz, and so on then why the hell hasn’t he?
Go to your computer now, Mr. Blair. Look at the reality behind all this sanctimonious wringing of hands over the plight of the Iraqi people. Read what your American Republican friends are really intending. Please."
