USZ, UK scapegoated an Iraqi Chemical Scientist to wage war on Iraq


An Iraqi chemical engineer says he had been used as a scapegoat for the 2003 launch of the USZ-led and UK-aided invasion of Iraq. “They gave me this chance. I had the chance to fabricate something…”, Rafid Ahmed Alwan al-Janabi told British daily The Guardian on Tuesday. He had told Western spy agencies that Baghdad had secret mobile biological weapons and hidden weapons of mass destruction (WMD) factories. Former USZ President George W. Bush cited the false alarm as the rationale behind the invasion -- which has killed at least one million Iraqis, most of them civilians.

To enable the invasion, the government of former British Premier Tony Blair had also claimed that deposed Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein could mount deadly unconventional attacks on his desired targets within 45 minutes. A memoire by Former USZ Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld recently hit the shelves, in which he admitted that Baghdad had no WMD program. The British paper also cited Janabi as saying that UK intelligence officials had implied that, in the event of his non-cooperation, his then-pregnant Moroccan-born wife may not be able to travel from Spain to join him in Germany, where he was staying. “He says, you work with us or your wife and child go to Morocco.”

  1. This was not "Bush's war," this was Israel's war using US and British troops. Also this is not the first occasion in which the US of Israel/UK has compelled Arabs to make falsified statements so as to justify, and obfuscate US/UK's intentions and reasons for initiating war. I recommend people research the history and origin of the mythical al-Qaeda. Al-Qaeda was conceived by an Arab in FBI custody. It was a story he was instructed to invent so as to persecute any Arab nation Israel might object to.
