In 1989 I picked up an in-house magazine for the arms industry. Its editorial was headed "Thank God For Saddam". It explained that, since the collapse of communism and end of the cold war, the order books of the arms industry had been empty. But now there was a new enemy, the industry could look forward to a bonanza. The invasion of Iraq was built around a lie: Saddam had no weapons of mass destruction, but the defence industry needed an enemy, and the politicians duly supplied one.
And now the same war drums, encouraged by the storming of the British embassy last week, are beating for an attack on Iran.
The recent IAEA report which provoked such outcry against Iran's nuclear ambitions, he continues, contains nothing that proves that Iran is developing nuclear weapons.

by Bavafa on Tue Dec 06, 2011 11:39 AM PSTWE, the American people, have no control over how our hard earned tax dollars get expent.
It is a shame the WE, the American people, can not provide for the homeless or sick, yet can spend $Millions on killing machines.
What does that say about WE?!?!?!?!
