The following facts were established and published in obscure places in 2002, well before the U.S. and UK invaded Iraq, but did you know them, from the news-reports you saw, at that time, before we invaded, on that day which will forever be remembered in infamy, as the date when America\u2019s rabid dictatorship<\/span><\/a>became clearly exposed for all future history to contemplate in horror, 20 March 2003?:<\/span><\/p>\n

At the time of writing, Iraq is likely to be attacked by the United States. Using sections of the American and British press as \u2018conduits\u2019, US intelligence has successfully created what the CIA in Indochina used to call a \u2018master illusion\u2019. This is the threat of Iraq\u2019s \u2018weapons of mass destruction\u2019. There is no proof or credible evidence of any such threat, which has been denied by numerous authorities, including the former United Nations inspector in Iraq, Scott Ritter.17 However, the Iraqi \u2018threat\u2019 is central to the Bush administration\u2019s post-September 11 strategy of \u2018total war\u2019.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

The most important \u2018evidence\u2019 of Iraq\u2019s complicity with September 11 is that the alleged leader of the Twin Towers suicide hijackers, Mohamed Atta, was supposed to have met an Iraqi intelligence agent in the Czech Republic. In the British press, the intelligence agent was promoted from being \u2018low level\u2019 (The Guardian) to \u2018mid-ranking\u2019 (Independent) to \u2018senior\u2019 (Financial Times) to the \u2018head of Baghdad\u2019s intelligence services\u2019 (The Times). Only the Financial Times questioned whether the \u2018meeting\u2019 took place at all, or had anything to do with the destruction of the Twin Towers.97 On the BBC\u2019s Newsnight, Mark Urban, the Foreign Office correspondent, revealed that there was \u2018secret information\u2019 about \u2018a missile Saddam Hussein was planning to launch\u2019. He provided no evidence.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n
