The Nightmare Scenario

5th October 2005

We all now know that the real motive for the invasion of Iraq was primarily to ensure that Iraqi oil supplies were removed from the hands of Saddam Hussein and to ensure that they could not be used as a bargaining tool in Middle East politics against the US and its Israeli lackey. Once Saddam Hussein was overthrown and a US puppet Iraqi government was set up in Iraq then the possibility of a Saddam Hussein organised OPEC oil threat to American economic domination of the planet was removed.

The danger to the world from the stockpiles of WMD that Saddam Hussein had collected over the years with the funding, assistance and blessing of the United States was only the secondary motive for the invasion, but it was a real and active threat to the safety of the planet. And the Americans should know that the Iraqi WMD were a real and active threat to the planet as they provided Saddam Hussein with those WMD weapons. When Saddam was busy pouring Iraqi oil into American SUV's and dropping nerve gas bombs on Kurds or Iranians in line with US global policy, then the United States was prepared to support and finance Saddam's Baathist Regime and provide him with weapons of mass destruction. The moment that Saddam began to use Iraqi oil as an economic weapon against the United States and Israel then the US suddenly discovered it had a moral mission to save the world from the deadly threat of Saddam Hussein and his US sponsored collection of various nerve gases and biological weapons.

The European Far Left position that Saddam Hussein had no WMD at all is as absurd as the American Far Right position that the Iraq War was only about defending Israel. Both are promoting an ideological position, not a factual interpretation of the events.

Israel, oil and WMD

The only way that Saddam Hussein could have been a real and active threat to Israel was if he possessed WMD and was prepared to use them. Therefore to say that the Iraq war, as the American Far Right say, was only about protecting Israel and not about either oil or WMD is both false and illogical. It was the fact that Saddam had WMD, if you use logic to analyse the issue that had to form the actual basis of the real threat to Israel if the defence of Israel was the major motivating factor for the United States in the invasion of Iraq.

Therefore the Iraq War cannot be simply about defending Israel from the threat of Saddam Hussein. Unless he had a WMD capable of being a threat, then he could not have been a threat to Israel or anyone else. It was the fact of the existence of the WMD that must have formed the basis of any viable threat to the Israeli state.

Logical flaws are also present in the arguments of the European Far Left. The fact is that Saddam Hussein did have nerve gas weapons, biological weapons and the capacity to develop and deliver those weapons. To pretend as the European Far Left do that the Iraq War was only about Oil and nothing at all to do with WMD, is to ignore the facts of history. Saddam had been armed and supplied with chemical, biological and nerve gas weapons by the West for decades. Both Kurds and Iranians were slaughtered with Iraqi nerve gas weapons


Major gamble

Therefore we see that the Iraq war a major gamble for the West. They needed to liberate the oil from Saddam to secure American economic global domination of the planet but an invasion of Iraq also ran the risk of Saddam using the very WMD weapons the US had supplied to him over the decades of his American sponsorship against the allied troops themselves.


Nightmare Scenario

What if the real reason Saddam did not deploy those WMD weapons was because they had already been removed from the country and given to terrorists to use against the West or they had been hidden in Iraq and after the war started were stolen by terrorists that entered Iraq.

The United Nations have estimated that 500 tons of mustard gas and nerve gas, 25,000 litres of anthrax, 38,000 litres of botulinum toxin and 18 mobile biological warfare factories are still unaccounted for in Iraq. The fact is that the US knows the WMD weapons existed in Iraq as they provided Saddam Hussein with them and the means to manufacture them. The fact they haven't found them is the basis of the Nightmare Scenario.

Since the Iraq war the West has become fixated with undertaking exercises in most of our major cities that simulate a WMD weapon attack. Our so called 'liberal democratic' states have become more and more draconian in anticipation of a major WMD weapons attack. The new laws that the politicians are passing to ensure 'Homeland Security' or 'anti-terrorism protection' have to be based on a threat that is real and serious, not just a figment of their imaginations. For the politicians of the Labour party to alienate the liberals within the party and also their Muslim supporters by passing these laws shows us that a real and active threat of a vast dimension exists, but that the politicians do not want to alarm us or reveal their duplicity in the creation of the threat itself.

West supplied the WMD

The one question that the media never seemed to ask about Saddam Hussein's WMD weapons stockpiles is 'where did they come from?' and this is the reason why the US and the British government are so silent about the real nature of the WMD threat that we face. The fact is that the real threat does not come from small cells of Islamic terrorists using homemade explosives, but from weapons of mass destruction smuggled out of Iraq that the West itself gave or sold to Saddam Hussein. It is the WMD we in the West gave Saddam Hussein that forms the basis of the real threat we face today.

The criminality of the West in selling Saddam Hussein weapons of mass destruction, and the incompetence of the West in still not being able to find them in Iraq or stopping them leaving Iraq, is the real basis of the terror threat we face today. It is not the threat from various lunatic Islamist extremist groups hungering for death that is the real danger to us, it the sins of our politicians in the past coming back to haunt us. The real threat we all face today is the murder of millions of people in a city from a chemical or a biological weapon manufactured in the weapons factories of the West and not the destruction of a double decker bus or a tube train by a homemade bomb made in a bedsit by a lunatic Islamic extremist immigrant. The latter threat is similar to the one we faced from the IRA on a daily basis for decades and we did not need to destroy our democracy to ensure we defeated them. Therefore the former must be the only reason why the British and American governments are dismantling our democracy and it is in preparation for a massive WMD attack.

We are now aware that MI6 and the government trained, armed and financed various Islamic terrorists in the past who have now returned to Britain with the intention of killing us all. This is another example of the ' Terrorist Blowback ' caused by various idiots and criminals in successive British and US governments and the security services. It seems that the threat we face today is one of our past criminality coming back to haunt us. The terrorists and the weapons they use are products of our own politicians and their policies in the past.

The War on Terror is bogus. It is in fact a process designed to track down the WMD monsters that we ourselves unleashed upon the world before they murder millions of people in our nations.

Criminal gangs

One day the entire political elite of this country and the US should have to face a 'Crimes against Humanity Trial' for their conspiracies to supply and equip Iraq and other nations with weapons of mass destruction.

All those politicians of all parties that formed the political establishment of Britain and America for the last fifty years are criminals. They are all equally guilty under the Nuremberg Principles for crimes against humanity committed by the proxy armies they formed, funded and armed around the world.

Today we face a threat deadlier than that posed by the Communists and the Soviet Union, who at least embraced reason, had a logical basis for their expansionist plans and with whom we could negotiate. The threat we face today is that of religious fundamentalist lunatics who want to either control the whole world or destroy it.

With the weapons of mass destruction that they have acquired from the West then the latter may be a distinct possibility.
