White House 'distorted' Iraq threat
Bush administration officials 'systematically misrepresented' the threat from Iraq's weapons of mass destruction in the run-up to war, according to a new report to be published on Thursday by a respected Washington think-tank.
These distortions, combined with intelligence failures, exaggerated the risks posed by a country that presented no immediate threat to the US, Middle East or global security, the report says.
Financial Times - 8 January 2004
O/
Our leaders are liars
There can be no doubt
Instructing others to lie
To scream and shout
America in danger from WMD!
Nukes, Bio and Chemo!
We must destroy!
Pass me the ammo!!!
They goaded you to war
With lie upon lie
They killed twelve thousand and more
And STILL they die
And your own kids too
Sent to a nightmare of hate
To traumatise them forever
And seal their fate
Now report on report
Is telling the truth
No Nukes, No Bio, No Chemo
Only destruction of youth
The only report
We will never receive
Is the one from our liars
As they seek to deceive
They keep repeating
We were right! We were right!
But with no WMD found
They are a pitiful sight
NO WMD found
NO imminent threat
Twelve thousand dead
And not one TRACE of regret
