[ This message has been sent to you via the CASI-analysis mailing list ] An election is sometimes the best time to ask questions. The following is mine to BBC Newsnight. Our rulers would not be able to kill people through wars and sanctions if we could hold them to account. Information is key to this (as is the role of the media). If we can get closer to having the truth disclosed then there is more chance of moving towards reparations. *** Question Millions of people protested when Mr Blair was planning to attack a weak and defenceless country. Mr Howard, Parliament and the public were told a number of lies repeatedly over an extended period of time (my Chambers dictionary inludes as a definition: 'anything that misleads'). We have still NOT had a proper inquiry. Can you promise to hold a proper inquiry? This should also include 'Desert Fox' in 1998. Can you also promise to find out the truth about how many Iraqis (civilian and military) were killed during and after the invasion of Iraq (and in Desert Fox) as Mr Blair does not find it important enough to tell us?
