More bores; no brains

PM warned war illegal

Was he, indeed? Warned? Told in no uncertain terms? Given the low down?

Well let’s take a look at the case giving rise to this bombshell headline, shall we?

Secret legal advice received by the Australian Government is believed to have warned a war against Iraq may have breached international law.
. . .is believed to have warned. . .

International law experts believe the documents contain qualifications on the publicly released advice in the same way Britain allegedly hid the legal warnings first issued by its top lawyer, Lord Peter Goldsmith.
. . .believe the documents contain. . .

University of NSW legal expert George Williams, who drafted legal advice for then Opposition leader Simon Crean that contradicted the Government's tabled advice in March 2003, said the secret files would likely have warned an invasion was on shaky legal ground.
. . .the secret files would likely have warned. . .

"I think it's fairly likely that among the thousands of pages of documents there is a sense of equivocation, a sense of uncertainty. . ."
. . .I think. . .it's fairly likely that. . . there is a sense of equivocation, a sense of uncertainty. . .

BUT PM WARNED (we tell you)!



I’m almost too bored by this idiocy to bother.
