It was not about 911 that the Bush empire attacked Iraq. It was all about controlling their oil.

Never forget that the US gov under Reagan gave Saddam weapons, and wmd to use on Iran. And even before that he was recruited by the cia to knock off a democratically elected president in Iraq. It's all about the corporations using the US gov to privatize, exploit, resource rich countries. First they try the economic pay off to the foreign elite in these resource rich nations. If that fails, its covert ops and assassination. And finally its war. see John Perkins videos or writings.

Hans was Blixed by the Lord Mush/ Dick Insaney administration with help from the right-wing media like Rush Limblob, The War Street Journal's editorial page, and Fox Noise. And then many died for what in Iraq?

You should know that the Swedish Top Diplomat, Mr Hans Blix is the most honest person you can find. You should also understand Swedish history and politics and our "connections" with the modern USA and that Mr Blix is a liberal (which is to the left in USA) and former Secretary of State in Sweden.
The right wing USA, with FOX Channel News in the lead, was very condescending towards Mr Blix but even Fox News had to appoligies eventually in the Iraq case.

You don't know the first thing about Swedish Top Diplomat Hans Blix. If you had any knowledge about things, you would understand that Mr Blix is the most honest person you can find. Why the h-l would he spy for USA? It's obvious you don't know Swedish history and politics and our "connections" with the modern USA or that Mr Blix is a liberal (which is to the left in USA) and former Secretary of State in Sweden. Shame on you, "politicalthinker"

Hans Blix was part of the US conspiracy team.He failed to tell the world and the USA in particular that Iraq had no WMDs.He has Iraqi blood on his hands.He has the audacity to sit here and talk as if nothing has happened.His team was spying for the Americans.He could have spoken the truth about what he saw but his silence contrubuted to mess we are all witnessing today.Shame on you.
