Tony Ben interview to BBC in "Hard Talk" ( one week ago ) provided a clear and honest perspective of the reasons behind the Iraq War...
In this short article, we can analyze with real facts, why Tony Ben is correct when he says... : This is armed roberry...

I would like to adress this article directly to Tonny Ben:

Dear Tony,
I was quite impressed with your interview to the BBC.
You have provided a very clear and honest analysis of the "reasons" for B & B ( Bush and Blair) to have embaredk on that adventure, that you rightly qualified as "armed robery".
The big majority of citizens around the World are not aware that the USA and the UK have Oil reserves for less than 10 years, at the current rate of production, and assuming that no bigger finds show up in the near future...
In around 10 years, the North Sea UK fields will be history... in 10 years the USA will need to import 99% of their comsumption.
Under B & B perspective, Iraq could provide their countries with a most needed life saver... as thid countrie lays on top of the second biggest worlwide reserves...
So, all basic principles of International Law, all etics were forgotten, basing the military action on a set of lies orquestrated by both governements and going against the UN and the International comunity.
The damaged that has been done to the International comunity and the jungle law that was applied by two of the (suposedelly) most civilized nations of our planet, will be hard to heal... just hope that justice will prevail and those two polititians will be removed by democratic elections... as they have ashamed their countries in the name of greed for Oil...
The attached graphs with Worlwide Oil Reserves is self explanatory ( graphs were published at BP Statistical review, therefore they are reliable and represent a professional and educated approach to reality ).
Thank you Tonny Ben, best regards,
Antonio Abreu
