In the interests of peace, a Motion has been tabled in the British Parliament, which calls the United States Government to account for breaching the Geneva Biological and Toxin Weapons Convention. Here at last is a real opportunity to confront the hypocrisy behind the Iraq War and to impact upon global public opinion.

Austin Mitchell, MP for Great Grimsby, has just tabled Early Day Motion number 300 in the House of Commons. This is an in-House Resolution which invites the signatures of all Britain’s MPs during the next twelve months. If enough MPs sign, the subject will undoubtedly become a significant mainstream news story, initially in Britain and then worldwide, and the cover-up will be exposed. The key to the Resolution is in its last two lines, which are a challenge to Tony Blair and, ultimately, to the Bush Administration. The charge is extremely serious and the incontrovertible evidence cited is from no less a source than the United States Senate archive - officially published documents, which until now have been hidden from public view. During its first three days in circulation, EDM 300 was signed by 14 MPs. Their names and its text, and an ongoing update of new signatories, may be seen by clicking on:  http://edm.ais.co.uk/weblink/html/motion.html/ref=300

If you live in Britain, please write to your MP and forward this message now to everyone you know. If you live elsewhere and have friends in Britain, please forward this to them immediately, so that THEY may act upon it. Many MPs may be sitting on the fence at this moment, or may be unaware of the gravity of the charge, so every single voice will make a difference. Given the speed of e-mail and with the possibility of such help multiplying, tens of thousands of people in Britain could already be asking their MPs the same question when our Parliament re-convenes on 5 January. Simply put, the question is: Please will you sign Austin Mitchell’s Early Day Motion number 300, entitled ‘Biological and Toxin Weapons Convention and Iraq’, tabled on 16 December 2003, and if not, why not?

If your MP signs EDM 300, you could also write and thank them and ask that they canvass the support of other MPs. It is important to note that this is a cross-Party issue, which has now been taken up by Members of FOUR political Parties.
