ECO-TERROR
Saddam, Bugging, and the U.N.: Let he who is without wiretaps cast the first stone.
Now Bush has a third reason, one that's breathtaking in its hypocrisy: Saddam's regime must be toppled because he bugged the United Nations. [...]
Bush is any position to condemn Iraq for wiretapping U.N. officials in light of the Observer's March 2 scoop that the Bushies wiretapped the home and office phones of U.N. Security Council representatives in New York.
The Observer story, which was based on a leaked memo, got appallingly little coverage in the United States, even though it was confirmed by the subsequent arrest of a British intelligence employee for violating the Official Secrets Act.
