Saturday, February 28, 2004 British Prime Minister Tony Blair is angry and outraged over the public disclosure by his former cabinet member, Clare Short, that British officials secretly and surreptitiously spied on UN Secretary General Kofi Annan.

Friday, January 30, 2004 Amidst increasing calls for an independent investigation by the mainstream press into the Bush administration’s use of Saddam Hussein’s nonexistent weapons of mass destruction to terrify the American people into supporting the invasion of Iraq, which we now know was being planned soon after Bush took office, the White House is now saying that the invasion was justified because Saddam had a history of attempting to acquire such weapons.
