The Blair "dossier" tells us that, despite sanctions, Saddam was able to go on building weapons of mass destruction. All that nonsense about dual-use technology, the ban on children's pencils – because lead could have a military use – and our refusal to allow Iraq to import equipment to restore the water-treatment plants that we bombed in the Gulf War, was a sham....

But the U.S. is itself prepared to use weapons of mass destruction if the Arabs and Israelis should come to blows – no matter who starts it – or if nuclear-armed Israel is attacked.

U.S. Capitol Police Chief Terrence Gainer has been quoted as saying, "I don't know why we have to wait until after they've inflicted damage." Mr Gainer talks big now, but look at him during the fall protests in DC, crying like a baby after his own cops pepper-sprayed him. The white cops hate the black cops.
