Discard blinders and a memory that only works in the very short term

So we're going to hang Saddam Hussein. That'll clearly solve everything.

Now I'm not saying he isn't guilty of war crimes, but where did he get his tools of death? Who was backing him when all this went down in the 1980s?

The United States of America. The United Kingdom.

Remember those old pictures of him shaking Rumsfeld's hand?

Read Robert Fisk's November 6th essay in the Independent, and then ask yourself this:

"Who are we allowing the sales of weapons & deadly biological agents to today and who are they killing with them?"

We must hold our governments and our corporations accountable for their actions because as far as the rest of the world and history are concerned, we are accountable for what we permit.
