After Destroying Iraq Bliar Says 'Oops'!

This is exactly what happened to Robert McNamara the US Secretary of Defense who was responsible for the carpet bombing of Vietnam, Cambodia and the use of Agent Orange chemical agents in the Vietnam War.

To all you younger readers, for 15 years (from 1960 - 1975) the Americans invaded Vietnam and fought a war against the Vietnamese people.  One of the architects of that war was a man called Robert McNamara, the US Secretary of Defense under President Kennedy and Johnson.

Long after he had KILLED about THREE MILLION Vietnamese, Cambodians and Laotians, the retired Robert McNamara wrote his memoirs where he said the entire Vietnam War was "wrong, terribly wrong".

" . . . McNamara wrote in a 1995 memoir that his own behavior in shaping the war was “wrong, terribly wrong,” but, to many  that confession was too little, too late."

"too little, too late" ??  After killing THREE MILLION people? 

Do you all recall this ever so infamous image of the Vietnam War? 

This picture was taken in Vietnam on June 8, 1972. The Americans had just dropped napalm fire bombs on a Vietnamese village. Their homes and parents burnt to death, these surviving children are running away for their lives.  The naked girl in this photograph is 9-year-old Phan Thi Kim Phuc. She suffered burns on her body from the napalm attack.  

This ONE photograph is the de facto symbol of not just the Vietnam War but of the genocidal American foreign policy that still finds a very sick satisfaction in shedding human blood all over the world.

This photo won the Pulitzer Prize and was chosen as the "World Press Photo of the Year" in 1972. 

Just for your information, the young girl Phan Thi Kim Phuc survived the napalm attack, studied medicine in Vietnam and became a doctor. She is now 55 years old, lives in Canada, is married and has two sons. She runs a medical aid agency that helps victims of war throughout the world.

Dr Phan Thi Kim Phuc

Now listen to Blair. He was the Prime Minister of Britain for 10 years. He killed over 500,000 Iraqis.  After he destroyed Iraq and retired from office, the havoc he caused in Iraq is still ongoing and has killed hundreds of thousands more people.

Yet the US and UK still continue to shed human blood in Iraq, Aghanistan, Yemen, Libya, Syria and so many other places.

It is not a question of "they never learn". It is a question of "they never cease to shed human blood".
