FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Two wrongs dont make one right, never did never will
On Wednesday, April 14, 2004, President Bush announced his plan to continue America's offensive war against Irak in order to strengthen the invasion
and therefore the acquisition of the oil reserves so needed by the Americans back home to keep being the worst polluters on the planet and destroying the global life-support systems.
He said we have not found WMDs in Irak. Although I have lied to
my own citizens, so what, they loved it, and I am bringing in Irak my own WMDs, and we (the U.N.) will find them there later on. So I was not telling a lie. Ha!
It was wrong to invade Irak, and it is wrong to bring WMDs into Irak.

New Reports on U.S. Planting WMDs in Iraq
Common Dreams http://www.commondreams.org/headlines04/0413-02.htm
BASRA -- Fifty days after the first reports that the U.S. forces were unloading weapons of mass destruction (WMD)
in southern Iraq, new reports about the movement of these weapons have been disclosed.
Sources in Iraq speculate that occupation forces are using the recent unrest in Iraq to divert attention from
their surreptitious shipments of WMD into the country.
An Iraqi source close to the Basra Governor's Office told the MNA that new information shows that a large part of
the WMD, which was secretly brought to southern and western Iraq over the past month, are in containers falsely labeled
as containers of the Maeresk shipping company and some consignments bearing the labels of organizations such as the Red
Cross or the USAID in order to disguise them as relief shipments.
The source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, added that Iraqi officials including forces loyal to the Iraqi
Governing Council stationed in southern Iraq have been forbidden from inspecting or supervising the transportation of
these consignments. He went on to say that the occupation forces have ordered Iraqi officials to forward any questions
on the issue to the coalition forces. Even the officials of the international relief organizations have informed the
Iraqi officials that they would only accept responsibility for relief shipments which have been registered and managed
by their organizations.
The Iraqi source also confirmed the report about suspicious trucks with fake Saudi and Jordanian license plates
entering Iraq at night last week, stressing that the Saudi and Jordanian border guards did not attempt to inspect the
trucks but simply delivered them to the U.S. and British forces stationed on Iraq's borders.
However, the source expressed ignorance whether the governments of Saudi Arabia and Jordan were aware of such
movements.
A professor of physics at Baghdad University also told the MNA correspondent that a group of his colleagues who
are highly specialized in military, chemical and biological fields have been either bribed or threatened during the last
weeks to provide written information on what they know about various programs and research centers and the possible
storage of WMD equipment.
The professor also said these people have been openly asked to confirm or deny the existence of research or
related WMD equipment. A large number of these scientists, who are believed to be under the surveillance of U.S
intelligence operatives, have claimed that if they refuse to comply with this request, they may be killed or arrested on
charges of concealing the truth if these weapons are found by the Bush administration in the future.
He said that the Iraqi scientists believe their lives would be in danger if they decline to cooperate with the
occupation forces, especially when they recall that senior U.S. officer Michael Peterson once said, "Iraqi scientists
are at any case a threat to the U.S. administration, whether they talk or not."
A source close to the Iraqi Governing Council said, "In the meantime, many suspect containers disguised as fuel
supplies have been moved about by some units of the U.S. special forces. The move has been carried out under heavy
security measures. Also, there are unofficial reports that the containers held biological and bacteriological toxins in
liquid form. It is possible that the news about the discovery of the WMDs would be announced later."
He also said that such mixtures had been used by the Saddam regime in the 1990s.
The source added that some provocative actions such as the closure of Al-Hawza periodical by U.S. administrator
Paul Bremer, the secret meetings between his envoys with some extremist groups who have no relations with the Iraqi
Governing Council, the sudden upsurge in violence in central and southern Iraq, a number of activities which have stoked
up the wrath of the prominent Shia clerics, and finally, the spate of kidnappings and the baseless charges against the
Iranian charge d'affaires in Baghdad are providing the necessary smokescreen for the transportation of the WMD to their
intended locations.
He said they are quite aware that the White House in cooperation with the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has
directly tasked the Defense Department to hide these weapons. Given the recent scandals to the effect that the U.S.
president was privy to the 9/11 plot, they might try to immediately announce the discovery of weapons of mass
destruction in Iraq in order to overshadow the scandals and prevent a further decline of Bush's public opinion rating as
the election approaches.
