Chilcot noted that by the end of the CPA’s first year of occupation, there were more than 60 UK companies working in Iraq, on contracts worth an estimated $2.6bn. To the victor, the spoils. Over $8bn of that Iraqi oil revenue was lost, unaccounted for in a process described thus by Blair’s representative in the CPA, Sir Jeremy Greenstock: “A lot of cash was going round in suitcases to be dispensed to Iraqis, not all of which was accounted for.”

In summary, South Africa operated a covert nuclear ballistic missile program. The United Nations introduced a mandatory arms embargo against South Africa in the development and manufacture of such weapons. Israel assisted anyway. The result was that nine nuclear weapons were left after testing. The purpose was to prove to international markets it had that capability and was willing to sell that capability to willing buyers.

Excerpts from part 4 of Peter Eyre’s documents: “These weapons were then shipped in standard 20 foot containers and manifested as metal cylinders and not nuclear weapons. This would have been in violation of international regulations regarding the shipment of dangerous goods.

The weapons were then placed into private storage and left for Dr.David Kelly to carry out an inspection in order to accept the consignment prior to final payment. Dr David Kelly was the only person in mainstream UK MOD tasked with being in the loop for that covert offshore procurement of battlefield nukes from Apartheid South Africa.”

Eyre’s documents show that the final inspection was then carried out, the final payment made by the British Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) using money from the Ministry of Defence (MOD) and it was subsequently revealed that £17.8 million was siphoned from this secret nuclear deal into Conservative Party funds. Eyre is unequivocal about this:

Artificial atoms refer to a whole class of systems that behave like atoms in the sense of discrete energy levels, not just quantum dots. Large metal objects that respond in peculiar ways to microwave radiation, for example, are called artificial atoms as well.

Earlier this year Tony Blair made a commitment to opening up the local loop by the beginning of 2001 and did so on an international stage surrounded by his European counterparts. As the deadline approaches Internet firm GTS called on Blair to clarify the commitment.

At a heads of state conference in Portugal in March the prime minister signed up to an European Commission regulation calling on incumbent telcos across Europe to open their networks to competitors by the beginning of 2001. Since then the EC has worked hard to make the regulation legally binding.
