Get this 45 minutes WMD crap out of your mind as the only reason for
invading Iraq. The right wing press have done a good job at
brainwashing
the hard of thinking into believing it was the only issue. IT WASN'T


In March 2003 Jack Straw laid down 6 points for Iraq to comply with in
order to avoid war. They we-

· a public statement by Saddam Hussein, broadcast in Iraq, admitting
possession of weapons of mass destruction, stating his regime has
decided to give them up and pledging to cooperate with UN weapon
inspectors.

· a commitment to allow Iraqi scientists to be interviewed by the
inspectors outside Iraq.

· the surrender of, and explanation of the 10,000 litres of anthrax the
Iraqis are believed still to be holding.

· a commitment to the destruction of proscribed missiles.

· an account of the unmanned aerial vehicles and remotely piloted
vehicles or drones.

· a commitment to surrender all mobile bio-production laboratories for
destruction


There are all about WMD. Nothing else.

That is on the surface. The other points were not stated.
