French President Jacques Chirac
got his political agenda from SADDAM HUSSEIN and the UN Oil for Food Rip-off. Tariq Aziz, the
former Iraqi deputy prime minister, told the ISG that the "primary
motive for French co-operation" was to secure lucrative
oil deals when UN sanctions were lifted. Total, the French oil
giant, had been promised exploration rights.
Iraqi intelligence officials then "targeted a number of
French individuals that Iraq thought had a close relationship
to French President Chirac," it said, including two of his
"counsellors" and spokesman for his re-election campaign.
They even assessed the chances
for "supporting one of the candidates in an upcoming French
presidential election." Chirac is not mentioned by name.
A memo sent to Saddam dated
in May last year from his intelligence corps said they met with
a "French parliamentarian" who "assured Iraq that
France would use its veto in the UN Security Council against
any American decision to attack Iraq."...
Thankfully President Bush has
not 'Forgotten 911' and has implemented a very smart non-political
anti-terror war that sucks radical Muslims into Iraq and Afghanistan
and away from the US and Alaska where they are being methodically
eliminated.
