From Guardian Unlimited Politics | Special Reports | Blair and Bush – an extract
Bush: The decision to remove Saddam Hussein from power was controversial. We did not find the weapons of mass destruction that we all believed were there, and that’s raised questions about whether the sacrifice in Iraq has been worth it. Despite setbacks and missteps, I strongly believe we did and are doing the right thing. Saddam Hussein was a menace to his people; he was a state sponsor of terror; he invaded his neighbours. Investigations proved he was systematically gaming the oil-for-food programme in an effort to undermine sanctions, with the intent of restarting his weapons programmes once the sanctions collapsed and the world looked away.
- If by all, he means he, B-Lair and his Neo-con cronies believed it, then I suppose he is right.
- I wonder if Dubya can remember who actually put Sadam into power and sold him weapons to invade his neighbours. Here’s a clue, its an anagram of ICA.
