unless i was in the room with all this people at the time the conversations
were had i would believe 100% any of it. Words missed out? Are these real
conversations and where ? How? did you/people come across them.

 Hindsight and manipulation for propaganda....whatever....whatever....i have
my own beliefs and as much as i feel Bush is a cunt, i dont really believe
he would let over 3,000 people die for a war on Iraq. In fact its more now
isnt it..more American troops and yet more British...still at least ours
were killed by the enemy this time..eh...lol.

I can see a better place.....no Dictators...Or bullies!
