Blair at the Iraq enquiry

[Monkeytrousers]

Aquitted himself well I thought. I'm certainly glad he was PM then.

There is a thread already about Tony Blair

i know. but this is one that doesn't have any perjoratives in the title

As I said over there, I don't have a problem with him and the level of personal attacks on him are staggering. People calling him to be hung are pretty pathetic.

I think he has made valid arguments so far. But that doesn't stop the media onslaught - check out the DM website headlines. It is like they have seen a totally different thing to what I have seen.

Yes I agree. There is nothing come out that wasn't known before. Reasons for going to war were valiod. The 45 min claim was tenuous and that was the weak link that critcs tried to tie the whole issue to - fallaciously. It was a difficult call. He made it.

I really don't think critics know anything about how politcs works - they think it is the media.

The fallen soldiers families have just been on tv saying he was disrespecting them by sitting with his back towards them. Like he should be sitting looking at them while answering questions from the panel. Everyone wants their piece of flesh. It's pathetic.

To paraphrase Marx (I'm not a Marxist though!) maybe liberalism carries the seeds of it's own destruction - in that some (general) people are never happy no matter what level of privledge and safety they live in. Fu*kwits.

who is that fecking idiot on Sky now talking bollocks about what politicians should do when he obvioulsy hasn't a clue what politics is?!

Anti-war protesters waving offensive flags - offensive to Iraqi's! More fu*kwits,

Are you all out of your minds? Seriously, he has now expressly said that he thought war was right regardless of whether or not there were WMD, 200,000 Iraqis have died, and he has no regrets whatsoever?

I knew his premiership would end in lies and bloodshed and I was right. A liar through and through.

I don't get what he has lied about?
