{conspiracy-theory warning!} I am being patient before my full out rant about the total lack of evidence for WMD. Yes, I would have assumed that the ‘thousands’ of tons of chemical and biological agents should have bee tripped over by now. But I think the US are patiently waiting, setting up some credible scenario of discovered weapons. I know this is all so ‘conspiracy-theory’ - but they can’t afford to not find weapons. A spectacular find will smoothly oil the justification for the war (future ones too). And as anyone knows, a good show needs good planning. They will hold off on UN inspectors, but bring them in once everything is set up just right, to try to bring a soupçon of respectability to the whole thing. The article in the Times yesterday was a little more forward in it’s many worries about this whole scenario:
“On Hoon’s account, the regime was organised and skilful enough to dismantle, transport and hide all these weapons beyond the detective skills of US forces, and yet so disorganised that it could not retrieve and deploy even one.”
The US/UK are desperately treading water at the moment, hoping to hold out until the big cruise ship (courtesy of the Ministry of Truth) comes and rescues them. How’s that for a cynical point of view?
