After a long wait for this report it's finally been released, Teflon Tony has not come out smelling of roses either. The families of those who died will now study the findings and decide what, if any, action can be taken.
What a waste of lives, and for what, there were no weapons of mass destruction after all.

Maggie had a war, won it and gained great popularity - so Blair had to have one. That is the only reason it happened.

Well he got that one wrong didn't he.

He looked physically scared when he was making a back pedaling speech on BBC just now. I think he can see prison will [hopefully] come his way one day.

Got it wrong? This from the New Statesman,
"The world has certainly been reordered since Blair’s speech, but not in ways that he promised. According to Iraq Body Count, up to 180,000 civilians have died in the various conflicts that have followed the invasion of Iraq in March 2003; the death toll, including combatants, exceeds 250,000. The blighted country remains in a state of war: a suicide bomb in Baghdad on 3 July killed more than 150 people. As our diarist Jeremy Bowen writes on page 21, Iraq “has not had a day of real peace since the invasion in 2003”.

Much, much more horror has since been perpetuated by the invasion of Iraq and we are still seeing and experiencing the consequences of lies, misinformation and deceit. Pray to God it will end? Humans caused this to happen and only humans can repair the damage done.

THIS WAR WAS ALL ABOUT GREED THE MOST VALUABLE COMMODITY SECOND TO WATER IS OIL AND THAT IS WHAT BOTH BLAIR AND THE YANKS WANTED.

<< Text removed - please read forum rules>> He did not make any mistakes, it was all deliberate and he should be tried for war-crimes.

Agree whole heartedly a leading light in The Establishment hence the job he got when he left UK politics Middle East peace envy
you are of course correct RR envoy not envy.

/dont you mean "envoy" Kerry.. ? "Middle East", "Peace" and "envy" are surely contradictory!

Think I remember him saying "safer place". This man is a meglamaniac This attack spawned every terrorist attack since. What a great actor. I hate him.

Didn't hear a word of poor Dr Kelly, who I believe was murdered on evidence from paramedics and many others.

he thought he would go down in history as a great leader changing the middle east for better unfortunately he and bush didn't really understand the mind set of the people of these countries and instead of liberating them as he thought he was doing he has cause untold turmoil not only in Iraq but the knock on affect across the whole region, he and bush should both be done for war crimes ( all those people that died just to feed his/their vanity )

I would paraphrase - "he hoped he could con the people into recording him in history as a great leader" - from the beginning, I considered him to be "too good to be genuine"; despite and apart from whatever other failings, I felt that his predecessor as Labour leader (John Smith) and his successor (Gordon Brown) had as much integrity and morality as is possible in politicians - but Tony Blair? None whatsoever; an all-image, no-substance manipulator - the sort that almost always succeed....
...While Bush was/is a dangerously world-ignorant, delusional megalomaniac, trying (and failing) to reach even the mediocre standard of his father....
(And I doubt I will now never be allowed to visit the USA, once the NSA have read this....! )

Without Water there can be no life. Think about that. I do hope that this country does not put all its eggs in one basket for that would be foolish. The threats are all over, and the world not a very nice place.

Read many books on this Blair Fiasco and us getting involved with the USA . Blair should hang. Sending so many people to their deaths. It has totally destabilized the world and Iraq is in turmoil.

How come so many of us so called ordinary people suspected the truth No W.M.D Yet these idiots in power committed mass murder. It was basically terrorism on a grand scale.
