"After 12 unsuccessful years of UN supervision and disarmament, military force regretfully appears to be the only way of finally and conclusively disarming Iraq."

Well, well, well. Guess who the above comments come from !

George Bush ? Tony Blair ? Erm....no. Try Dr David Kelly. You know, the weapons inspector who supposedly topped himself ( according to left wing conspiracists ) because he could not stand the government's pro-war spin.

Yet....in a suprise new development.....it now turns out that Kelly not only thought there were still WMD in Iraq......but he also favoured regime change to remove that threat !

We have had months, on this site, of the anti-war people spreading lies and conspiracies about the whole issue. Indeed....many anti-war people have sought to use the whole Kelly affair to create a martyr for their cause.....portraying Kelly as an anti-war victim of some dastardly plot.

Yet it now turns out that Kelly was pro regime change in Iraq.......and actually no friend of the anti-war people at all ! Don't you just love it when such twists come about, and all the wackos at rense.com ( and their friends here ) end up with egg on their faces.

I don't see the anti-war people here eager to quote from their favourite newspaper The Guardian today !

I leave the final words to Dr Kelly :

'The long-term threat, however, remains Iraq's development to military maturity of weapons of mass destruction - something that only regime change will avert"
