US intell never fooled Canada. Or Mexico. Or over 85% of the entire planet. And not one "ally" had a majority population -not even the UK under tony the bLiar, not even America under george "idiot" bush- that supported invading Iraq. Less than 15% of the world were "fooled" by that "bad intelligence". Maybe that 15% are the stupidest MFers on the planet. Or the biggest MFing liars. Or both. You choose.

While many were killed in battle, others were summarily executed after they had surrendered and were taken into custody, sometimes after summary people's "trials."
The Western press also recorded rebel ...

October 19, 2005; British Law lord damns "illegal Iraq war'
One of Britain’s most senior judges last night accused ministers of producing “half-baked” criminal justice reforms and then blaming judges for the failings of the system. Lord Steyn, a law lord, also launched a scathing attack on ministers over the Iraq war, accusing them of “scraping the bottom of the legal barrel” to justify their case.
He said it was a “fairytale” to suggest that the Iraq war did not make London a “more dangerous ...

Iran gave the Kurds money & equipment to use to overthrow Saddam's regime. Iran then bombed several of Iraq's border towns, killing hundreds of civi...
