TIME.com: Weapons of Mass Disappearance
Time article discusses the issue of the failure of the discovery of WMDs in Iraq. Blair and also Wolfowitz have expressed irritation and embarrassment over the insistent re-appearance of this issue. Everyone knew before the war that the issue of WMDs was merely a pretext for war, and normally after the war the WMDs and the lack of them would conveniently go into Orwell's Memory Hole. Therefore the prominence of its coverage in the corporate media at this stage implies for me that the establishment has had enough of the Bush Doctrine and the neo-conservatives and has decided to rein them in. Incidentally this also provides a prime opportunity for the ALP to relentlessly attack the Howard government over its uncritical support of UKUSA and the neocon Bush doctrine.
