Tens of thousands of lives lost, tens of thousands are maimed, millions turned into refugee's, thousands of foreign invasion and occupation troops killed and maimed, hatreds enhanced thus who knows how many will seek blowback in the coming years or decades, a country destroyed and a whole generation of youngsters who grew up among the carnage and death................................one can go on and on, and for what purpose was all this terror reigned down on innocent beings!! Telling the lies those who sought the destruction wanted to hear!!
• Man codenamed Curveball 'invented' tales of bioweapons
• Iraqi told lies to try to bring down Saddam Hussein regime
• Fabrications used by US as justification for invasion
"They gave me this chance. I had the chance to fabricate something to topple the regime."
15 February 2011 - The defector who convinced the White House that Iraq had a secret biological weapons programme has admitted for the first time that he lied about his story, then watched in shock as it was used to justify the war.
Rafid Ahmed Alwan al-Janabi, codenamed Curveball by German and American intelligence officials who dealt with his claims, has told the Guardian that he fabricated tales of mobile bioweapons trucks and clandestine factories in an attempt to bring down the Saddam Hussein regime, from which he had fled in 1995.
"Maybe I was right, maybe I was not right," he said. "They gave me this chance. I had the chance to fabricate something to topple the regime. I and my sons are proud of that and we are proud that we were the reason to give Iraq the margin of democracy." {continued}
