Poland "taken for a ride"

The Polish President Aleksander Kwasniewski said last week 
that his country had been "taken for a ride" regarding the 
alleged existence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. "That 
they deceived us about the weapons of mass destruction, that's 
true", he said.

If this is true of Poland it is also true of Australia. In both 
cases the Polish President and the Australian Prime Minister went 
along with the lies of Bush and Blair and their respective 
intelligence organisations.

They both set out to deceive their peoples and drag them into the 
Iraq quagmire. Illustrative of the stupidity and faulty reasoning 
of the Polish President, he went on to say that it made no sense 
to pull Polish troops out of Iraq.

He claimed: "What would be the point of pulling the troops if it 
meant a return to war, ethnic cleansing and conflict in 
neighbouring countries. If we protest against the US dominant 
role in world politics and we withdraw our troops knowing they 
will be replaced by US soldiers, what would be the point of such 
a move?"

These dire consequences that the Polish President anticipates are 
already occurring and are the direct result of the US, British 
and Australian invasion and the traitorous role by the leaders of 
some other countries who have joined in the dirty game of keeping 
their military boot on the heads of the Iraqi people. The Polish 
President has proved to be just as subservient to the interests 
of the United States as is the Australian Prime Minister.

The Polish President claimed that "passiveness will lead us 
nowhere". How about trying some honesty and extend the right of 
the Iraqi people to determine their own affairs and get out of 
Iraq?
