Stop trying to behave like a Hollywood hitman
(The Independent, 18 June 2002)
If the United States had wanted to confirm every worst suspicion in the world, it could do no worse than reveal that it has set the CIA free to organise a coup against Saddam Hussein in Iraq. . . . This is no way for a mature democracy to proceed, let alone the world's only remaining superpower. If America believes – as well it might – that the peace and security of the world is best served by a change in regime in Iraq, then it should proceed through legitimate action and co-ordinated world pressure. This is the real world, not Hollywood.
