Bush killed many people by chemical weapons
Mark Metzelaar - 18.08.2002 10:43

New info about the American war industry in the massive use of chemical weapons and even possible bussiness deals by Bush himself (as is known for the present war by the Carlyle group).

New info about the American war industry in the massive use of chemical weapons and even possible bussiness deals by Bush himself (as is known for the present war by the Carlyle group):

 http://www.yahoo.com/s/22602

"...
Though senior officials of the Reagan administration publicly condemned Iraq's employment of mustard gas, sarin, VX and other poisonous agents,
...
Colonel Lang asserted that the Defense Intelligence Agency "would have never accepted the use of chemical weapons against civilians, but the use against military objectives was seen as inevitable in the Iraqi struggle for survival." Senior Reagan administration officials did nothing to interfere with the continuation of the program, a former participant in the program said.
...
Iraqi military commanders had integrated chemical weapons throughout their arsenal and were adding them to strike plans that American advisers either prepared or suggested.
...
publicly condemning Iraq's use of gas while privately acquiescing in its employment on the battlefield — was an example of the "Realpolitik" of American interests in the war.
...
"They had gotten better and better" and after a while chemical weapons "were integrated into their fire plan for any large operation, and it became more and more obvious."
...
The Pentagon "wasn't so horrified by Iraq's use of gas," said one veteran of the program. "It was just another way of killing people — whether with a bullet or phosgene, it didn't make any difference," he said.
..."

So probably the American goverment and allied military industrie didn't only make strategic plans aout how to use the agents to kill many Iranian people, but were also involved in delivering materials to produce the weapons.
This went on at least till the chemical weapons were used against the Kurdisch people.
After that time, the US still supported the use of chemical weapons against the Iranians, but officially condemned the use against the Kurdisch people.
Bush publicly said afterwards that no products ment for chemical weapons, should be sent to Irak.
But how true should that outward bound statement be?

"...
but Mr. Shultz, in his memoir, also alluded to the struggle in the administration.
"I was stunned to read an intelligence analysis being circulated within the administration that `we have demolished a budding relationship (with Iraq) by taking a tough position in opposition to chemical weapons,'
..."

Be aware of the Evil Empire and the Axes of Evil, now formed by merging all the powerfull and imperialistic states from USA, Sowjet Union and China!

The USA has a 'defense' budget that might be bigger than all other countries together.
Only another 'terrorist' attack is needed for Bush to accomplish the world leadership by acquiring war-powers.
Adolf Hitler never came that close and would have dreamed about that.
