1. What they are leaving out is how much the Bush Cabal has benefited

This is all old news. The only people who did not benefit was the Iraqi people.

But the Bushies made out like a bandit.

3. The issue was brought up on another thread in FA

Perhaps you missed it since that threat has been around since December and has 104 posts, many of which are RW clap trap in support of the invasion. In that context, this matter was a red herring.

The fact that there is corruption in the UN does not prove that Saddam had a biochemical arsenal at the time of the invasion or even shortly before or that he had any associations with al Qaida.

On a scale of 1 to 10, this is a 2 or a 3; the invasion of a sovereign state justified by a pack of lies is definitely a 10.

4. It's terrible but true but a 'red herring' nonetheless.

The Bush administration is complicit and this issue will soon be swept under the rug once all the truth is known. We are trying to blame it on Kofi...but the western nations are to blame, including the US. Afterall, our corporations benefited and so did our 'allies.'
