For those who have followed the tragic development between the governments of the United States and Iraq, it becomes abundantly clear, the President Bush and his closest aides, will continue to search for or create arguments, discoveries, assumptions, super secrets or undisclosa-ble evidence, in order to declare Iraq in material breach.
This newly coined sophism material breach, has been introduced to confuse those they have labeled as uneducated, untrained or underclass, incapable of deciphering their language of death.
During the past months, the center of attention of the UN inspectors in Iraq was centered around the discovery of nuclear, chemical and biological materials, or proof of its destruction. Nothing was said about missiles!
Then suddenly, Iraq is once again in material breach, this time for having missiles with a range slightly beyond 93 miles. Could this very unique and highly suspicious range limit, have anything to with Iraq's powerful neighbor, Israel?
Once the people and government of that country was faced with this new crisis that could easily evolve into a material breach and become a reason for our strategic bombers to be airborne, it was only logic that they would agree not to measure, test or question this ruling, but to start dismantling immediately the culprit.
Many in the administration prayed, hoped and remained glued to their phones, hoping that Saddam Hussein would have challenged Mr. Hans Blix. Later, listening to President Bush, his aides and many of the media pundits, their frustration, anguish and pain was evident, after learning that Iraq had started destroying its missiles. It was for them, once again, back to the drawing board, creative thinking and develop a new confrontation.
So far, the only good that have come out of this dragged out killing experiment, is that the world have seen and is convinced, that the present administration will stop at nothing and that they will relentlessly continue to search for gimmicks, missteps or arguments capable of justifying this premeditated attack, that will bolster their childhood.
If President Bush, Mr. Blair, Mr. Aznar, the Bulgarian and other obscure personalities that have, or are in the process of joining the War Wagon had irrefutable proof that would justify war against Iraq, why are they running around the world like cheap bazaar merchants, trying to bribe morally questionable leaders of such countries?
What we see happening today in Turkey that reminds us of a used car auction, was exactly the same in 1960, when the United States wanted to oust Cuba from the Organization of the American States. Papa Doc, then President for Life of Haiti, openly demanded for his critical vote, millions of dollars in cash and a substantial portion of the sugar quota that the US purchased from Cuba and was now offered as incentives to others.
How can we continue to call ourselves Democracies, when 70, 80, 90% or more of the citizenry of the countries of the so-called Coalition of the Willing opposes all military action against Iraq?
Where are the virtues of leadership in Mr. Bush, Aznar and Blair, who only talks among themselves, but refuse to do so, with those who disagree or opposes their actions?
Since Mr. Bush, Mr. Blair and Mr. Aznar seems to be convinced that their poor standing in the polls is because they have not been able to get their message across; that Hollywood and other lefties are distorting the facts, why are all three of them unwilling to call a mass gathering in New York, London or Madrid, where they can lay out the facts to their people?
We were thought by an illustrious thinker, that you can lie to most of the people most of the time, but not to all of the people, all the time..
