There should be an enquiry into why the intelligence services lied, then. It's their job to present facts, with some opinions. I find it hard to believe they said they were sure of the WMD when it's clear they didn't know enough. Seems more likely to me that they presented possibilities and suspicions and the politicians turned these to certainties.
If it wasn't the politicians it was the Intel services that lied, either way there are serious consequences.
