Robin Cook RIP and respect.
One of the things that came out was the complete lack of an exit strategy when the war was over and Saddam deposed ,the lack of which has caused most of the problems with IS and Syria.


I can't decide what's worse ,Blair knowingly taking us into a war based purely on gross exaggeration ,incompetence and even downright lying or the fact that he would do exactly the same again if he was in power.I completely understand that taking a country into war is never an easy decision for a leader of a democracy and to me that is all the more reason to make absolutely sure of the intelligence and the facts on this Blair has failed miserably .Company directors get sent to jail for criminal negligence ,this is the same imo
