The war on terror is being lost

The greatest obstacle to reducing the threat is the US administration

Forget all the arguments about Iraq, we are told. We have had Hutton
and Butler, Tony Blair won't apologise for misleading the public and
parliament, and it is time to move on. But how can we possibly move
on? The invasion of Iraq has cost the lives of more than 1,000
American and more than 60 British soldiers. Put on one side the
failure to find any weapons of mass destruction and the fact that
Saddam Hussein's Iraq posed less of a threat to its neighbours - let
alone the west - last year than when western governments were
supplying his regime with WMD precursors right up to the invasion of
Kuwait in 1990.
