Blair: I would have invaded Iraq anyway
Dec 12th
In an interview with the “hard hitting political commentator” Fern Britton Tony Blair has finally admitted that WMDs were simply a flimsy excuse to deceive a nation into going to war and he would have sought regime change anyway.
In an interview timed to try and defuse the mounting attacks on Blair’s WMD lies coming from the Chilcot Inquiry the confused looking former PM rambled at length about his faith and why he decided it was fine to invade and occupy a sovereign state that posed no threat to Britain.
Bliar said his work in the Middle East made him think “I can’t really think we’d be better with him [Saddam] and his two sons still in charge”.
Of course the families of the hundred odd thousand civilians who have died since Blair’s illegal war started would possibly disagree.
Blair to face families of dead at inquiry.
Nov 13th
Tony Blair will have to face families of soldiers killed in his illegal Iraq war early next year.
It has been announced that government ministers, including Blair, will be grilled in Jaunary. While the inquiry is being veiwed by many as another whitewash waiting to happen, Blair cannot relish the fact that he will have to face angry families who want him to explain his lies that lead to Iraq.
Rose Gentle, whose son Gordon was among the soldiers killed in the illegal war, said the families wanted to be “face-to-face” with the former prime minister.
Blair has already displayed his usual arrogance in telling Rose Gentle how she should behave:
‘I think it is better that she is allowed to express her grief in her own way without public controversy’
That was his perspective on Rose Gentle’s accusation that her son, who was killed in Iraq, had been treated like ‘a bit of meat’, 2004.
