Basra is a practise run for Baghdad.

The water supply was bombed and a mediaeval siege put in place.

As 2,000 civilians tried to fle this morning, the Black Watch were ordered to mortar them.

The intention is to starve the population into submission.

This is a war crime for which Blair, his war cabinet and the officers of the Black Watch will be prosecuted.

Short and the others can not say they do not know about it.

An independent committee of MPs should be formed to put an immediate stop to war crimes.

This war is going to go on for months if not years.

If the labour MPs can not get rid of Blair, at this time, then at least they must stop war crimes.

Blair misled the MPs and the public with his cynical and criminal use of the deaths of two UK soldiers.

This can not be allowed to continue.
