sorry tony but i just caught your hand on heart comment on the invasion of Iraq.?

Question

looking at the facts as they turn out was this one of the worse decisions of any politician ever? And please you people don`t give me the terrorist thing as an excuse for the invasion because anyone with half a brain knows thats rubbish.

Answer 1

I'm not sure which is more worrying: if that speech was sincere, and he believes being sincere excuses everything,
or whether it was another evasion on top of evasions.

Robin Cook, in his resignation speech, spoke more clearly and made much more sense than anything that was coming out from either side of the Atlantic at the time. And has almost without exception been proven right.

He was an enough of an insider to know, particularly as a former Foreign Secretary.
The contrast with Tony was staggering.
(And I didn't really like Cook, but for this I was forced to respect him.)

Answer 2

You may be right.

However, if Europeans ( and us American also) dont learn how to properly control the influx of these Muslims into our countries...this War will end up seeming like the "good ole days"


And dont say "well its this war thats causing terrorism". I realize in the short term it may seem that way, but 911 wasnt during the war, Pan Am wasnt during the War, and Muslims have been violent terrorists for as long as they have been around.
