Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11, which was one of the main reasons given by the USA, for the USA going into Iraq. Personally, I believe Bush #2 was trying to get Saddam for Bush #2's daddy from the first Gulf war, plus to try to get access to Iraq's oil, of which at the time, would have been most probably the second last nation to have oil remaining in that region based upon the current rate of production at that time. Since production had basically ceased for quite a time, it's possible that Iraq will be the last nation in that region to have oil. Armageddon, here we come. OR, we could move this world to utilizing PURE HYDROGEN and basically give up utilizing fossil fuels. We might even have less wars that way and less people suffering and dying. But then again, if we don't have a pro-active space program, we are all going to die one day anyway, forget everything we ever knew and experienced, and then be forgotten one day in future eternity as there won't be a conscious entity left to care we even ever existed at all much less whatever it was that we did and/or didn't do, or how much oil we had, or how rich or poor we were, or what kind of house we lived in, or car we drove, or job we had, or how many descendants we had. Nothing would matter one day as there wouldn't be a conscious entity left for anything to matter to. Choices people, we do have choices.

Oooh, the war criminal has finally had the finger pointed at him for having his war no matter what. Time for prison.

The coward only threatens when he is safe. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

he still claims Iraq is better now then it was under Saddam rule who will compare Iraq then and Iraq now?

There is a lot that can be discussed about Saddam and the disaster that Iraq is today but Blair should be held to account along with our Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz. They cherry picked highly questionable information that led to where we are today.

Our mistakes have been forgiven, our cruelty is justified. We are empire now deal with it!!!!!!!!

Yes Anthony you did lie. The report didn't say he didn't lie it said information was mishandled but they stated he acted in a sincere belief that Hussein had nuclear weapons. We also found out that he guaranteed to Bush that an invasion would happen six months before meeting with parliament when he said Saddam Hussein could still avoid it if he complied with the UN resolutions. The report found also that the war was not a last resort and that he ignored the advice of his own colleagues and kept the Attorney General out of key decisions. Don't believe a word he says. Tony Blair is a liar

he is lier he destroyed us

If he was and is so concerned with weapons of mass destruction then why not attach N Korea? they are soon to have Nuclear weapons.

I am an Iraqi secular, and I feel deeply indebted to the British people for sending their sons to free me from tyranny.

7:47 ahhhh, Saddam didn't practice equality of opportunity!

Hmmm You and everybody else who criticises his decision would all be singing from a different hymn sheet had we not taken action and fell at the hands of Saddam with WMD.
