Well into the war that was supposed to rid Iraq of its alleged stockpile of weapons of mass
destruction, a senior British official admitted on Saturday that no chemical, biological or nuclear
weapons of mass destruction may after all be found.
Making the startling confession in a radio interview, British Home Secretary, David Blunkett,
added in the same breath that he would in any case rejoice the “fall” of Saddam Hussein and his
regime —regardless of whether any weapons of mass destruction were found in Iraq or not.
The British home secretary’s confession reconfirms the worst fears of the opponents of the
war that the bogey of “weapons of mass destruction” was only a ruse for the US and the British
to go to war against Iraq.
