@arranMRT Hi, I sent an email to you on 27th July. No one has responded yet. I appreciate you are busy but is there any possibility someone could reply please?
Here is what I actually cannot explain:
The year is 2003.
The United States invades Iraq on the basis of "weapons of mass destruction" that do not exist.
This is not a matter of interpretation. It is documented.
The intelligence was manipulated.
The case was fabricated.
The people who fabricated it knew it was fabricated.
Some of them have said so, on record, in memoirs that were reviewed positively in the same newspapers that helped sell the war.
One million people died.
The country was destroyed. The infrastructure, the institutions, the social fabric.
ISIS emerged from the power vacuum.
The region destabilized in ways still producing casualties today.
Not one person went to prison.
The architects of the decision became senior fellows at think tanks.
They wrote books.
They appeared on television as "serious foreign policy voices."
Some of them are now presented as "voices of reason" in the anti-Trump discourse.
And the next time the same government, with many of the same institutional actors, said there was a foreign threat that required military response, a significant portion of the population believed them.
That is what I cannot explain.
Not the lie.
Governments lie.
The bottomless, renewable, apparently inexhaustible willingness to be lied to again.

Keir Starmer could have ended child poverty, homelessness and the grotesque levels of inequality in this country.
Instead, he abandoned those in need, destroyed our civil liberties and facilitated genocide in Gaza.
That is how this Prime Minister will be remembered - and that is the legacy of moral and political bankruptcy he leaves behind.
The crises in our society are not going away. Neither are we - and we will keep fighting for a more equal, peaceful and dignified society for all.
