WITH yet another war imminent in the volatile Middle East region it beggars belief why more innocent lives should be put at risk through the mistakes of others.

Indeed, it will always remain a mystery why Saddam Hussain wasn't brought to justice during the Gulf War. However, this is only one of many conflicts where questions remain unanswered.

The strategies and policies of the intellectuals at the head of government departments are baffling indeed. Nevertheless, it doesn't take a mastermind to realise it's just elementary.

Truth is we are driven by the American machine so a certain amount of political correctness and expediency priorities above all else. A case of follow me leader!
