Since ‘Lord’ Hutton recently absolved the entire British Government from any indiscretion regarding war and assassination, the eyes of indignation now shift to his backyard enquiry. The report has cleared Tony Blair, Director of Communication Alistair Campbell, Defence Secretary Geoff Hoon, the Ministry of Defence, The Civil Service, all Intelligence committees from any willing deceit of the people. This following U.S chief weapons inspector David Kay’s resignation, after stating that Iraq possessed no weapons of mass destruction.
The report was published at a time when public scrutiny was in fashion. The public suddenly remembered that Iraq was meant to have dirty nukes hovering over Tel Aviv, and Westminster Abbey. Whilst the Anglo Yankee forces find only darkness, hunger, unemployment, exploding donkeys and civil war. So they ask the question, actually Dr. David Kelley asked them the question. Now he’s dead and Hutton lives. So let’s speak of Hutton and his report.
The report is nothing but a further tool in misdirecting, bluffing and blindfolding a public whose intelligence can rival that of the intelligence services for which their taxes pay. The real question to be asked is not whether Iraq has, or does not have weapons of mass destruction. The question to be asked is why that is important. India, Pakistan, and other allies with the recipe of taxes, religion and uranium have enough nukes to destroy the planet a few times over.
In order to put things in perspective, let’s assume Iraq did, has and will have weapons of mass destruction. At this point the United States declares it a rogue state, Britain joins hands, and a pre-emptive murder is undertaken. So therefore you can have weapons, which we have in fact sold you, but if you’re a rogue state, we’ll bomb you. Now the question is what constitutes a rogue state, well, that’s a state that ceases to place a red carpet for economic massacre. And who prints these labels of rogue states, the White House, who uses them, the media, and who is left to think about them, the public. The cycle is complete.
If the lord in charge said that Blair and Co. knew there were no weapons, what are they guilty of? Taking a precautionary measure to safeguard the interest of their people. A slap on the wrists and back to work destabilising every public sector to dole out to ex landowning aristocrats of middle England. So the public instead of speaking of a mass slaughter from the sky; for oil, water, and a tactical military presence; is dangling like a worthless pendulum of do they have, don’t they have, the most futile endeavour their of their futile minds. And the real disaster is that if it is ‘proved’ that there were W.M.D’s in Iraq, is this now justified annihilation. Will the public be appeased; will this let return to pubs, council meetings and pubs guilt free?
Why not a report or document or even a moment of thought not to imaginary missiles, but to the question, if this is not the cause, what is? Is their an investigation into the oil profits of the war? No. Is there an investigation into the big business bonanza from the war? No. Is there an investigation into the surging arms revenue? No. Is there an investigation into the war for votes? No. Is there an investigation into anything outside W.M.D’s, NO.
The report decided also to spank the Baghdad Bombing Corporation, known with great esteem to the world as the B.B.C. It claims it spread lies and deceit to its viewers. With this I must agree with the report, the B.B.C was the mouth piece of a blood thirsty state apparatus that made it dance on a string. Until of course the interview with Dr. Kelley. For months the B.B.C did not ask questions about motives for the war, why are they suddenly so interested? Why did not the B.B.C present one alternative hypothesis for the reasons for war? Why is the B.B.C instead of showing dazzling graphics of Apache choppers, show graphs of Bechtel Profits, and then chart those with former C.E.O’s and end up with vice presidents.
Ask your way to an impertinent question, and you are on your way to an impertinent answer. This is the extent of public domain in England. With a neo-fascist party for a political labour left, with The Sun and Daily Mirror for the public voice, all that’s left to put on the mantelpiece is the B.B.C. Which like a parrot repeats after government, W.M.D, W.M.D, it reaches a point where what follows or precedes is irrelevant. Just get the term into the heads of the British thinker.
The Hutton report has a very disturbing positive. It shows a semblance of a democracy in Great Britain, you ask a question, we make a report. The national broadcaster now seems armed with impartiality to the empire, the defender of free knowledge in the public domain. The public therefore makes a distinction between themselves and people from China, or North Korea, who are ‘brainwashed’ and ‘Silenced,’ whereas we investigate our government, our news even gets reprimanded by our government for asking tough questions. Whereas all the while they play a cryptic merry go round to dizzy a public into double think.
If suddenly there are no reports, and the integrity of the B.B.C is not underlined. The public may begin to ask the right questions. Thus, give them a bogus report on a bogus issue, and keep feeding the bird seeds to the B.B.C, to repeat as follows.
The British Troops, the British Government, and The British People that voted them in have butchered and pillaged an entire nation onto the brink of irreparable eternal suffering. They have bombed and starved innocents to enrich their brothers in arms across the pond, their illegitimate child, spawned from the rape of a colony. And their public wax’s lyrical on fictions weapons of mass destruction, whilst lubricating a false democracy, with false freedom of thought, and a false propagandist media. The British Empire is alive and well, its public is sick and dying.
