Jimmy J. • Hi Syed, could you clarify the introductory statement ... 'to cover up facts and figures' ... are you proposing a cover up?

The saddest part about any war / conflict, is the death of innocents - an Iraqi friend tried to explain that the internal issues were similar to the 'catholic' / 'protestant' issues in ireland - between the 'shia' / 'sunni' communities - and it was this division which required to be addressed as saddam was using brute force to take 'businesses' from independent owners and making them state owned, giving them to cronies.

Also, regarding the WMD issue - these wouldn't be found, as there were various countries around the world supplying these to Iraq, in particular when saddam was an ally in the area with Iran concerns - the WMD would have resulted in these countries being exposed -

I find the likes of wikipedia and other sites which claim to supply all details, to display a view from only one side of the situation - I had an opportunity to meet Mr Blair when he was the PM - my very first impression was that he was quite arrogant, after chatting to him for a few minutes my opinion turned to 'pity' as I realised that this ordinary guy was 'damned if he did' and 'damned if he didn't' ... it also allowed me to be more open in my understanding and never to take a stand without seeking clarification from all sectors and then forming my opinion.

If you plan to do a serious documentary exploring ALL the facts and figures then that would be better - although it may be harder to get any view that did not have a bias, although I would hope not impossible.

Syed G. • Hi,Jimmy, you are absolutely right, this is a very serious subjects, Saddam, Shia,Sunni,Catholic Protestant Issues is only the part...... the important things to find out facts and figure behind the hole war, Characters and Issues are always exist, you can't denied but the most important thing is humanitarian ground and the lost of the innocent people. lot of things in my mind and I need more research and as well as financiers, thanks, your comments and advise which are very important for me.
