    I was looking for a map of the southeast of Iraq and googled "map Basra"

    The fifth result was "Map of Basra, Al Basrah, Iraq Great Britain". Ominous or what.

    Then again on August 3rd 1990, Saddam produced a new atlas with Kuwait as the 19th province.

    What he is talking is common sense. The UK government has been verging on hard nosed w.r.t. world and public opinion over Iraq - a blatant indicator of Herr Blair's imperialism.

    What has this got to do with whether or not the Uk still maintains imperialist dreams, however unrealistic.
