Tony, like our own leaders?, have found their excuses and justifications, they sound an awful lot like those of the bin Ladens and Saddam’s of this world!
“Iraq War was right even if there were no WMDs”
Tony Blair would have invaded Iraq even if he had known that there were no weapons of mass destruction in the country, he has admitted.
Mr Blair replied: “I would still have thought it right to remove him. I mean, obviously you would have had to use and deploy different arguments about the nature of the threat.”
He added: “I can’t really think we’d be better off with him and his two sons still in charge but it’s incredibly difficult… and that’s why I sympathise with the people who were against it for perfectly good reasons and are against it now but, for me, in the end I had to take the decision.”
Snip
At a memorial service in St Paul’s Cathedral in October to honour British military and civilian personnel who served in Iraq, Mr Blair offered his hand to Peter Brierley, whose son, Lance Corporal Shaun Brierley, was killed in 2003. Mr Brierley told him: “I’m not shaking your hand, you’ve got blood on it.”
Asked if the anger of parents like Mr Brierley was “the cross you will always have to bear”, Mr Blair said: “Let’s be clear, it’s worse for them. They have lost their child and it’s very sad. If you have lost your loved one but you think you have lost them in a cause that’s not worth it, that makes it worse.”
Snip
Elsewhere in the interview, to be broadcast this Sunday, Mr Blair said his faith was central to his life and discussed his conversion to Catholicism in 2007, after leaving office. ..>>>>>
Blair feels all the Deaths, Tens of Thousands of Iraqi, Millions of Iraqi Refugee’s, Destroyed Country and Sectarianism, 179 British Soldiers, 4370 and Counting U.S. Soldiers, and Total of 4688 Military Coalition Deaths, as well as the Tens of Thousands of Maimed, Physically and Mentally, Soldiers and Civilians was just Hon-key Dory to take down Saddam and Sons.
As well as being a part of the Human Rights Violations the U.S. was carrying out against not only our Laws but International Laws, of which we and the brits along with other countries wrote and enforced as we also condemn others who break them, on Torture and Rendition’s, the Rendition’s coming in some cases in the occupied theaters but also many from elsewhere.
UK accused of rendition over men arrested in Iraq
A legal rights charity has accused the government of misleading Parliament over two men arrested by the British military in Iraq.
Reprieve says British forces handed the men to the US military who then took them to Afghanistan in 2004.
It says one of them is a Shia rice trader and not part of a banned group linked to al-Qaeda, as ministers claim…>>>>>
Saddam, a dictator who was once good friends with as well as installed in power, with some western powers being involved! We did more to the Iraqi’s then Saddam, and his hencemen, could have dreamed of and in only a few years time, And It Continues with the BlowBack on All, Especially the coming generations, there and World Wide, from not only Iraq but the Whole Region as it’s caused major shifts and more hatreds!!

Where do they miss the obvious, when they speak like this, they sound just like those who we label as our enemies and terrorists!
It’s ‘righteous’ to invade another, using as just one of many excuses of WMD’s, weapons of mass destruction, as we use WMD’s, weapons of mass destruction, to destroy and kill innocent human beings to silence one!
They and All who hide behind the twisted ideologies they’ve adapted and call Righteous Religious Beliefs, his Christianity, as they pick pieces of Bible Quotes in their justifications!
Sounds just like, well we know who or whom!!
Mission Accomplished!!

for war crimes. Somehow I don’t think the little wanker would go off the board with the same dignity!
Yeah,that’s the ticket.Just make up a different set of lies.
I hope the world never lets that smarmy slime-ball Tony Blair of the hook for his role as Bush’s enabler and accomplice in crimes against humanity.
They should both be in the dock at The Hague.

Kent State protest scene nominated as historic site
it would warm my heart to see Blair in an orange jump suit and in the docket at a war crimes tail at the Hague, it will NEVER be enough for the horror and pain that he and the Bush cabal of war criminals have wrecked on the world. I don’t believe in hell but if there is one I hope they rot in it.
