U.S., U.K. Waged War on Iraq
Because of Oil, Blair Adviser Says By James Kirkup
London, May 1 (Bloomberg) --
The U.S. and U.K. went to war against Iraq because of the Middle East country's oil reserves, an adviser to British Prime Minister Tony Blair said.
Sir Jonathan Porritt, head of the Sustainable Development

``I don't think the war would have happened if Iraq didn't have the second-largest oil reserves in the world,'' Porritt said in a Sky News television interview.

The entire administration continues lying to the American public, anesthetized by Murdoch and Clear Channel propaganda andphoney patriotism.
Lots of blood for oil.
