Bush and Blair Prepared the Iraq War at Crawford Behind Closed Doors
Blair Should Be "Impeached" for War on Iraq and Islam: UK Academic
Former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair should be impeached for a deliberate attack against Iraq which is part of a British plan to have war on Islam keeps ongoing, says Rodney Shakespeare, an academic and political analyst based in London.
Shakespeare, a professor of Binary Economics in London, made the remarks in an interview with Press TV on Monday, after Scottish National Party (SNP)’s Alex Salmond said Blair should be taken to the International Criminal Court (ICC) for involving the country in the 2003 invasion of Iraq.
The SNP foreign affairs spokesman has begun rallying support for the impeachment of Blair, pending the publication of the Chilcot inquiry report into the UK’s involvement in the 2003 Iraq invasion on July 6.
“Tony Blair should be impeached. It is bigger than his collusion with George W. Bush. The sequency of events goes back to 9/11 in which the UK has colluded in suppressing the truth, which was a false flag attack organized by elements of Saudi Arabia, the CIA and Israel in order to set in motion a wholesale onslaught on Islam,” said Shakespeare.
“The second wave of that was the attack on Iraq in which Blair and Bush colluded at a ranch in Texas,” he added.
“It is not widely known that one of the underlying reasons was to rip off the assets of Iraq. The Bremer orders — Paul Bremer was the second governor general in Iraq — there are 100 of them — the Bremer orders in fact reveal the intent to rip off every aspect of the Iraqi economy,” the analyst pointed out.
In March 2003, the US and Britain invaded Iraq in blatant violation of international law and under the pretext of finding WMDs; but no such weapons were ever discovered in Iraq.
More than one million Iraqis were killed as the result of the US-led invasion, and subsequent occupation of the country, according to the California-based investigative organization Project Censored.
