Hans Blix: UK Became Prisoner of US Train, Heading Towards War
Local Editor
The Iraq Inquiry, or as referred to as the Chilcot Inquiry, welcomed a stance or evidence of former UN Weapons Inspector, Hans Blix, who was charged with finding the claimed Saddam Husein's weapons of mass destruction.
In his analyzing stance, Dr. Blix said that the British government, at a time when Tony Blair was PM, would have liked to use diplomatic ways to disarm Saddam Husein, bur instead, Britain was driven into the US policies and became their prisoners, which led towards war.
Hanx Blix said that both parts, US and Britain, should have realized that "their sources were poor", and that is after his inspectors found nothing regarding Saddam Husein's weapons of mass destruction.
Legally speaking, Dr. Blix strictly believed that the invasion of Iraq was illegal, stressing that he knew about the majority of international lawyers who feel that way as well.
Former UN Inspector was clearly of a US criticizing position where he said, "The UK was wedded to the UN route but eventually became prisoner of the American train", regarding the George Bush administration back then as being "high on military" after the September 11 incident.
According to Blix, he had warned Blair before the 2003 invasion of Iraq, saying, "Wouldn't it be paradoxical if you were to invade Iraq with 250,000 men and find very little?" he also added, "I gave a warning that things had changes and there might not be so much".
In his evidence of the issue, Blix revealed to the Chilcot inquiry that when he was still in position, inspectors visited 30 sites based on tip-offs from British and US intelligence, and yet found only little other than some old missile engines and some pile of nuclear documents.
Hypocrisy is still on the run with the US policies, as the most powerful country, military speaking, it would not be very wise of Britain to disagree with it, yet Britain was dragged to a war, causing the loss of many of its troops.
The weapons of mass destructions were nothing but a claim and excuse to enter a rich-resourced country, in order to spread the US policies and control.
