“If you close your eyes when they are talking about Iraq and replace it with Israel then everything they say applies. The weapons of mass destruction are there in the Middle East, they are in the hands of the Israeli government, the most dangerous hands they could possibly be in.” – British socialist, Paul Foot, calling for “regime change” in Britain.
THE LEFT VERSUS INSPECTIONS: Fascinating, to me at least, that both the Guardian and the New York Times have pieces today saying U.N. weapons inspections cannot work. Does that mean both papers will back president Bush’s insistence on U.N. backed actual disarmament? Don’t bet on it.
