The mess Blair has left for the UK

When Tony Blair happily sent British troops into Iraq it was on his word that the purpose was to find the weapons of mass destruction that were being stored in that country. Well Tony, where are they?…while you are enjoying your retirement and about to rake in millions from your memoirs are you sparing a thought for all the British men and women who have so far lost their lives on account of your actions?

I think not. There were no WMD to be found anywhere except for a raddled old Saddam Hussein who has since been executed. So what happens from now on…? What a complete and tragic farce this whole war has become. All it has served to do is pit East against West and Christian against Muslim whereby we all lived relatively peacefully alongside each other not too long ago. Sure enough, we were all fearful of more 9/11′s in the immediate aftermath but the only event to come close was in London in July 2005; this was no result of any weapons of mass destruction but from explosives built on British soil by British citizens themselves. Why then are countries such as North Korea and China, both armed to the teeth, not made to answer the same charges?

Iraq itself has been reduced to a poverty stricken and war torn wasteland with the most basic of infrastructure destroyed and people who mostly claim that at least they had food and services under Hussein.  Blair, you have created an unholy mess and then shot through…

Enjoy your retirement.
