THREE British newspapers decided to commemorate the 2003 Iraq war, when the allies used fake stories about Iraq’s supposed weapons of mass destruction (WMD) to justify their invasion, by printing new fake stories about Iraq’s non-existent WMD.
The Daily Mail’s story, published this month to fit in with the 20th anniversary of the Iraq invasion, had a headline claiming Saddam Hussein “admitted he BLUFFED about having WMDs to deter Iran from invading Iraq, FBI interrogator reveals.”
In 2004, a year after the Iraq invasion began, Saddam was captured by US forces and interrogated by an FBI agent, George Piro, before he was handed over to the Iraqi “interim” occupation government and hanged.
