Gulf
War Vet admits setting oil-well fires
under U N command
-
- DURING the past
six years, the American Gulf War
Veterans Association has received
numerous reports from veterans
[as
has this
website]
stating that US forces were
responsible for the setting of the
oil well fires at the end of the
Gulf War.
One veteran has now stepped
forward and given a detailed account
of how he and others in special
teams, moved forward of the front,
behind enemy lines ahead of US
forces, set explosive and incendiary
charges on the well heads, and
remained hidden until after the
charges were remotely detonated and
US forces advanced beyond their
position. -
- "We were
mustered into the briefing tent
at which point a gentleman whom I
first had thought to be an
American
but I was
concerned because he was wearing
a UN uniform and insignias, began
to brief us on the
operation."
"There was concern that America,
the American public, might see this
conflict as an unnecessary thing,
and we were asked to do this
or we were ordered to do this in
order to remove any
to sway
any public opinion
American
public opinion to remove any doubts
whatsoever that Saddam Hussein and
his regime were a terrible evil that
had to be dealt with." Stating that he was given a small
number of wells to set the charges
on: "I carried out my mission
parameters and than I withdrew and
concealed myself until such a time
as the front moved past me." The information provided over a
series of meetings with this veteran
corroborates the reports from other
veterans who are totally unconnected
with this individual.![](../../std/dings/square.gif)
