Tony Blair and Iraq - The Iraq War

Mail on Sunday: Reports " A bombshell White House memo has revealed for the first time details of the ‘deal in blood’ forged by Tony Blair and George Bush over the Iraq War.

The sensational leak shows that Blair had given an unqualified pledge to sign up to the conflict a year before the invasion started.

It flies in the face of the Prime Minister’s public claims at the time that he was seeking a diplomatic solution to the crisis.

He told voters: ‘We’re not proposing military action’ – in direct contrast to what the secret email now reveals.  "

Lets Get Real:

The UK press will never forgive Tony Blair for Iraq, its the one way to get at him, its like Nixon with Watergate, the good parts of the era's are overlooked for some scandal, as with Watergate  the press attacks on Blair are unfair, the perceived threats from Iraq were real, the US and UK after 9/11 had to act, of course if the Iraqi Regime had been 100% honest there would have been no reason for the War, as the regime played Russian Roulette it forgot that there was a bullet in the gun, their half truths lead to the War.   The decision to go to war was the right one given the information at the time, so this blog still supports Blair and the War.
