BBC News: Reports on the legal opinion of the top Foreign Office lawyer Sir Michael Wood, Sir Michael has stated that he thought the War was illegal as it didn't have that all important second UN resolution. Thus as stated the Iraq Inquiry has seen the civil service place the blame for the War at the door of the then PM Tony Blair. As the UK was pushed out of Iraq, the war has been seen as a failure on both the military and diplomatic side, thus someone has to carry the can, well since Tony Blair is out of office, it seems that he is being set up as the new Eden, Iraq is Suez. The Establishment needs someone to take the fall and its down to Blair to be the political victim.
