>>"Pub, > No,the laughing stock was Cheney and Bush after they lied us into a war with Iraq...a nation that kept Iran in check....we would never have to deal with the nuclear issue now facing us.

That's just stupid.

Not only would Iran have the nuke, Iraq would have the nuke as well ... and there would be nothing the Western world could do about it.

Honestly, you can't call yourself an "intellectual" if you make outrageous statements like that without supporting evidence."<<


Here is some "supporting evidence" to show just how stupid you are...Go view the referenced Charlie Rose interview from the following with Sir Jeremy Greenstock, Blair's UK Special Rep for Iraq...He knows of the Cheney/Bush lies and says so.

>>"Sir Jeremy Greenstock was the United Kingdom Ambassador to the United Nations for five years, from 1998 [3] to July 2003 [4] where he attended over 150 meetings of the United Nations Security Council. From October 2001 to April 2003, he was Chairman of the Security Council's Counter-Terrorism Committee. [5]

In 2003 he acted as the head of a Security Council mission to West Africa to assess the UN activities there, including the work of UNAMSIL. [6]

[ edit] Iraq and aftermath In September 2003, Greenstock was appointed the UK's Special Representative for Iraq, where he worked alongside Paul Bremer within the Coalition Provisional Authority.

Greenstock left his position in Baghdad in late June 2004, on a timing agreed with the UK government.

Greenstock wrote a book about his role in the Iraq war that was expected to be released in the Autumn of 2005, but was withdrawn from publication at the request of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office. Greenstock appeared on the Charlie Rose talk show on May 14, 2008 and explained some of the contents of his book. During the interview he stated categorically that British and American leaders had known since 1998 that Iraq under Saddam Hussein had no nuclear weapon capabilities or programs. [7]

On November 27 and December 15, 2009, Greenstock gave evidence to the Iraq Inquiry regarding his time as ambassador to the United Nations. [8] [9]"<<
