"Everything is only marketing.. The new statistical methods only help marketing to keep the high deficits in the US financable. The data does not reflect reality in the US.

Some thoughts on UNSCR 1441 and the dubious legality of the invasion of Iraq
01-06-2004 08:58

As so many journalist, politicians, bloggers, and the like continue to appeal to 1441 (frequently distorting it), it seemed useful to collect my thoughts. I should emphasise that I am not a lawyer but I hope that some people may find it of use -even if it is decidely old news nowThe Feminism of Fools
