-Caveat Lector- Comments upon "text of Benn interview with Saddam"
> > Former Labour Cabinet Minister Tony Benn interviewed Iraqi leader Saddam > Hussein in Baghdad. > Benn: Mr President, may I ask you some questions. The first is, does Iraq > have any weapons of mass destruction? > > Saddam: (Snip-snip) ... as I have said on many occasions before that > Iraq has no weapons of mass destruction whatsoever. Just a matter of definition here ?, ...that there are none currently on/under Iraqi soil/sand ?, ...or that there are some, but which 'belong' to someone else ? > Saddam: (snip-snip) ..We challenge anyone who claims that we have to > bring forward any evidence and present it to public opinion. Indeed a fair challenge - anyone got any evidence ? > Benn: I have another which has been raised: Do you have links with al-Qaeda? > > Saddam: (snip-snip) ...we have no relationship with al-Qaeda. > No straight answer here. Saddam becomes plural at this point - Who are "we" here ? Also, one could quite unwittingly have such links amongst the traps, and not know about it/them ? > Saddam: (snip-snip) .. Iraq is free of such weapons. So, where were/are they ? ...underground - in border tunnels, ..Sudan ? > Benn: There are people who believe this present conflict is about oil,. > > Saddam: It seems to me that this hostility is a trademark of the current > US administration and is based on its wish to control the world and > spread its hegemony. > Ok, fair claim, but how's about some evidence ?
