IT has been suggested that oil is the motive for George Bush wanting to remove Saddam Hussein from power.

But, ever since the atrocities of September 11, 2001, I think Bush has been hell-bent on revenge, whatever the cost.

Almost daily for the past few months we have heard and read about Iraq's weapons of mass destruction. Do they have them, or do they not?

One thing is for certain --now that war has broken out, we shall soon know one way or the other. And that is too horrendous to contemplate.
