Leaked Bush/Blair documents

Military commanders are expected to tell the inquiry into the Iraq war,
which opens on Tuesday, that the invasion was ill-conceived and that
preparations were sabotaged by Tony Blair's government's attempts to mislead
the public.
They were so shocked by the lack of preparation for the aftermath of the
invasion that they believe members of the British and US governments at the
time could be prosecuted for war crimes by breaching the duty outlined in
the Geneva convention to safeguard civilians in a conflict, the Guardian has
been told.
The lengths the Blair government took to conceal the invasion plan and the
extent of military commanders' anger at what they call the government's
"appalling" failures emerged as Sir John Chilcot, the inquiry's chairman,
promised to produce a "full and insightful" account of how Britain was drawn
into the conflict.
Fresh evidence has emerged about how Blair misled MPs by claiming in 2002
that the goal was "disarmament, not regime change". Documents show the
government wanted to hide its true intentions by informing only "very small
numbers" of officials.

This sort of thing should be a giant bombshell, but will be buried by
Bush/Cheney Media.
Guess what - Extradition treaties. also- look up the term "In Absentia." If
they aren't extradited they can still be tried.
I'd like to see someone discover the agreement. The price Bush paid
Blair. From the very beginning I've said that Blair gained something from
this. What could it have been? How much? How paid? I feel that we're getting
closer. The group of people involved was too big for complete permanent
secrecy. This is why they wanted to keep the numbers of officials small.
It shouldn't take Pinochet years to discover the truth.
The reason they got away so far in spite of their continuity =
meaning the same group involved in Iran-Contra (and some may have gone back
as far as the assassination of JFK, MLK, RFK including Vietnam) are the
facilitators of choice throughout Republican administrations. The
corporations are the same also - war weaponry and earth resources. However,
they fine tuned tv, newspaper, and magazines corporations - the media wasn't
as loyal to Republicans in the beginning. Mercenary contractors are rather
new.
We have to reveal and repeat the names of players and be
able to link details involving them - then post.
We have to teach each other, because trying to bring them
to justice is not the end all if it is too late for the ones at the very
top - we can still expose their facilitators - the #2, 3, 4 levels down.
They are running around free. Look at Negotiant and Otto Reich (two of the
worst and there are many, many facilitators - got themselves into the
Hillary Clinton Sec of State circle with the overthrow of Gelya in Honduras.
Grover Nyquist, Ralph Reed, Karl Rove are not on vacation.
We have to help make the case against them and support the
international justice community.
We need that community to go after anyone they can.
Our best friends may be that international justice
community because it is very hard to get those at the top to go after those
at the top.
All of them have given themselves up to corruption. It's
corruption - it is equally harmful to Cheney, Bush, Misfield, Halfwits.
Know who they are, their contributions, teach others.
Participate and clarify on the details - follow the work of the
international people who count for upholding justice.
They bombed Baghdad and encouraged us to watch it on
television. Baghdad for the Iraqis is the equivalent to New York City for
us - over 7 million people live there. It was mass murder on live
television. The aftermath of the invasion was insult to injury.
They called that "Shock and Awe" - it came across the
airwaves like it was the opening foray of a sport. I felt like I was being
encouraged to pop popcorn and tuck in for a night of exciting entertainment.
Then there's the baseball theme, trading cards (enemy and friend), and
Rumsfeld as this 'baseball hero' with the press (that was their preferred
frame), and all that propaganda distraction stuff...
Both administrations should be held accountable for war
crimes, their media enablers should be held accountable, and the war
profiteers (the big company men) should be held accountable. Why would
anyone treat such an outrage so delicately?
