When Hussein was our ally
Iraq: Newly released documents reveal U.S. talk of regime change in the early 1980s - except then it was language condemning Iran for attempting to overthrow the government in Baghdad.

Missing U.S.-Iraq History
Before George W. Bush gives the final order to invade Iraq -- a nation that has not threatened the United States -- the American people might want a few facts about the real history of U.S.-Iraq relations. Missing chapters from 1980 to the present would be crucial in judging Bush’s case for war.

Bush sets out Iraq vision
An Iraq free of Saddam Hussein would be a "dramatic and inspiring example to the Middle East", US President George W Bush has said. More cowboy talk! We told you it was a U.S. Crusade.

Not in the name of democracy
PARIS The Bush administration should be careful when it talks about democracy in the Middle East. The idea is too valuable, and too vital, to be used as cynical camouflage for other agendas, whether those are based on oil interests, or Israel's, or the desire to have a solid military beachhead in a volatile region.

White House clash with TV chiefs
The Bush administration and the American TV network CBS were embroiled in a slanging match last night over charges that the broadcaster rejected a White House offer to rebut comments made by Saddam Hussein in his first US interview for 13 years. "This seems odd they wouldn't let the White House have a voice," Ari Fleischer, President George Bush's spokesman, told reporters yesterday, hours before CBS broadcast the Iraqi leader's meeting with the veteran US news anchor Dan Rather. But the White House was interested in "equal time", Mr Fleischer said - "in the same interview and the same time". Ms Genelius said: "The issue of equal time ... is a little curious, because the truth is that the American people see the president and his administration virtually every day. We report the White House position on key issues virtually every day."
