The USA created its own monster, the Axis of Evil.

You heard Bush say the phrase "Axis of Evil".

Its members were Iraq, Iran and North Korea. They were sponsoring terrorism and had WMDs aimed at your barbecue.

So come 1970 there's the USA, with enough nukes and bio and chemical warfare weaponry to destroy the universe. And there's these states who didn't have anything.

Question: how did Iraq, Iran and North Korea get the WMD technology?

From the USA, of course!

The Matrix-Churchill saga here in the UK showed British complicity in building Iraq's arsenal. There is more to this, but I'll save that for another day.

But there's photos of Donald Rumsfeld arranging sales of this, that and the other bottle of nasty stuff to Saddam. And he was given all sorts of financial credit to build his arsenal.

It was also Rumsfeld who gave North Korea its nuclear know-how when he was on the board of ABB selling reactors and God knows what else.

Iran also received nuclear assistance from the USA before the Shah was deposed because he wanted too much commission on the oil.

So today we learn of a CIA attempt to give/sell flawed intelligence to the Iranians in Vienna in 2000.

See http://www.guardian.co.uk/iran/story/0,12858,1678220,00.html

Apparently this Russian defected and was ordered by the CIA to give the Iranians a flawed design for a detonator of a nuclear missile. The Russian noticed the flaw almost instantly. He dropped the design off at an address in Vienna, but also pointed out to the Iranians that there was a flaw!

The concern of the Russian was that the CIA was giving the Iranians the know-how.

The CIA claimed they wanted to delay Iran going nuclear.

But this fits perfectly with the pattern of creating a monster i.e. the Axis of Evil, and then telling us that the monster (the Axis of Evil) has to be tamed.

Because the USA can't tell us "let's invade Iran because we don't like them". There has to be an excuse. That excuse is WMD, or the threat of such. Therefore the Axis of Evil must be given, or at the least given pointers to, the technology required for WMDs.

Thus we will have nearly endless warfare, probably nuclear, and at least bio and chemical warfare.
