Julian, yours is the narrative of Main Stream Media, at the very worst, one could make a case that Blair’s case for Iraq was exaggerated, and even that is strongly debatable. (There is much to suggest the WMD’s were moved to Syria, and Saddam was proven to be concealing and maintaining an active WMD potential.) This Blair/Bush lied nonsense is an invention by those with an anti Blair/Bush agenda. Removing Saddam was the correct thing to do on many levels, including the threat of WMD’s.
As far as the Muslims? You mean it was a disaster for the Islamists Supremacist, not the people of Iraq who were freed from tyranny and now have an historic opportunity to live in freedom and democracy. That the destruction of Saddam’s war machine was achieved with fewer than 2% casualties is nothing short of a miraculous triumph., that the Leftists and their media allies are determined to change the narrative to one of failure and disaster, proves them to be also the enemy. What is going on in Iraq now is an entirely new conflict, fueled and controlled by Iran and Syria.
Yes Blair’s domestic policies were quite a separate issue, I find little to support there, but as an international leader who did a good thing for the free world and a great thing for humanity, there are few in history that can equal Blair.
