Times of London: Saddam's germ war plot traced to UK cow


Extraordinary research on US/UK support for Iraq bioweapons by friend of Deep Blade Journal Geoffrey Holland hits the mainstream

An August 9 story published in the Times of London has reported facts concerning the source of a key 1980s anthrax shipment from the United States to Saddam Hussein's Iraq. This history was revealed several weeks ago in a white paper posted at Deep Blade Journal. Please click here to open the post and obtain the 21-page white paper.

A UK MP is quoted in the Times story, ``It just makes them [the US administration] look more hypocritical than ever''.

True. These revelations about US support for Iraq's unconventional weapons during the period of Saddam Hussein's worst atrocities line up right along with the documentary evidence in the Downing Street memos that Bush and Blair had taken the decision to go to war in 2002 and use false premises about Saddam's weapons programs to obtain acquiescence for the attack. Of course, the hypocrisy is multiplied because the weapons dangers from Iraq cited by Bush, Blair, and other officials in 2002, 2003, and beyond as justification for the war derived from support their own governments provided.

Please see the Deep Blade post cited for more details.
