Same reason why letting Ike command Allied forces in the west was the thing to do.
America is an important Ally when it finally gets upset and joins a long fight. Too bad we don't still have Ike though.
Ike would have handled this better and wouldn't have poodled the pm.
Blair has brain cells. We in America are responsible for making your dog look so fancy. Blair is a decent man though. He knew what he was doing. He can take it.

Actually 15 British soldiers were KIA by Iraqi military during Operation Desert Storm in 1991.
Prior to that the UK had occupied what was to become modern day Iraq in 1917 during World War I and lost 40,000 soldiers during the Mesopotamian campaign.

Study your history, there never was an Iraq before the British created it after World War 2.

As an American, I would really like to know what Britain's intelligence service had to say about "Weapons of Mass Destruction." There is the key to unravel this mystery. If British intelligence reported the same vague information as U.S. intelligence, we have evidence of conspiracy, good people.

What? Seriously? Please provide a single source to back-up your claim.
BTW you can clearly see where sandal-licking your Muslim population has gotten you. Keep up the pandering though. These guys aren't going to quit and soon enough they're going to be more than successful with a future attack. You can blame Tony Blair for that too.

This is the LAST time I will say this. Read up on international law and peace treaties before you open your mouth. I don't care what Washington said about WMDs, I don't care what they say about democracy - the fact is, this war was entirely legal!
At the end of the Gulf War, Saddam signed a treaty agreeing to certain things in order to cease hostilities before we reached Bahgdad and ousted him. We didn't END the war, we signed a cease-fire. The millisecond he failed to live up to his side of the bargain (which he did, or there wouldn't be 17 something U.N. resolutions telling him to get back into compliance) a state of war existed between our nations. It's as simple as that. He brought it on himself by kicking the inspectors out and rattling his sabre.

Because Blair is a Bush boot-licker.

Are you asking for our own opinion because you gave yours! Because it must be your opinion, there are'nt many facts, or is this a futile attempt at propeganda?

That's the most unqualified statement I've seen in this forum. You apparently are more than willing to sit and observe mass murder and the deployment of weapons of mass destruction.
I would think you would do at least a little research before asking such a question.

I find it amazing that people like you blame somebody like Blair for the terror attacks that extremist Muslims are carrying out in your country. It's really pathetic! I bet your grandfather blamed Churchill for the Blitz, too!
