Do you have a problem understanding what Sir Jeremy Greenstock is telling Charlie Rose in this interview on May 14, 2008?? Sir Jeremy Greenstock London's former ambassador to the UN and the first British envoy to Iraq... >>"JEREMY GREENSTOCK: We knew they didn`t have nuclear. That wasn`t... CHARLIE ROSE: We didn`t know it then. JEREMY GREENSTOCK: Yes, we did know it in 2003. CHARLIE ROSE: We did? JEREMY GREENSTOCK: Yes. CHARLIE ROSE: Really? JEREMY GREENSTOCK: As I told you before, Charlie, we didn`t have any doubts about that. And if the American people were misled on that score, they were misled. CHARLIE ROSE: Wait a minute. I know you have said this, but I mean, there was no question at the time of the American invasion in your mind and in the British government`s mind and in Tony Blair`s mind that they had no nuclear capability? JEREMY GREENSTOCK: No question at all. We knew that. CHARLIE ROSE: Is that what Tony Blair says? JEREMY GREENSTOCK: Yes. CHARLIE ROSE: He says absolutely we did not go to war about nuclear? JEREMY GREENSTOCK: Correct. We knew it in 1998, when I first came to the United Nations. The nuclear file was on the point of being closed by the U.N. inspectors with the agreement of the Security Council, except that Iraq had not passed a parliamentary resolution forbidding any meddling with nuclear materials in Iraq. That was a demand of the U.N. resolutions. The rest of it we knew was cleared out, was old hat, was dead. CHARLIE ROSE: So if you knew it, then your best ally had to know it. JEREMY GREENSTOCK: Yes. CHARLIE ROSE: But did they act like they knew it? JEREMY GREENSTOCK: They acted as though they thought he would try and reconstitute it, but we knew he didn`t have the materials to reconstitute it. He wanted to reconstitute it, but he didn`t have the capacity to do that, and we would have spotted anything that moved on the nuclear front, because he was well covered. But biological and chemical materials are much smaller, are much easier to hide. CHARLIE ROSE: Right. JEREMY GREENSTOCK: We had big doubts about that. CHARLIE ROSE: War without consequences. "<< We knew Iraq had no WMD and we were "misled" by Cheney/Bush/Rumsfeld Yes...we were LIED to by your crowd and it cost the country and Iraq hundreds of thousands of lives and trillions of DOLLARS and twits such as you, your out to lunch buddy bill, and other idiots such as that i-node character keep living in your Beck/teabagger world. OHMIGOSH...Go ahead...keep searching for the "long form" of the birth certificate too!!!
