More Evidence That Blair is a Spineless Liar

"At no time did [the government] assess that Iraq's WMD (or any other capability) posed a threat to the UK. On the contrary, it was the commonly-held view among the officials dealing with Iraq that any threat had been effectively contained ... At the same time, we would frequently argue, when the US raised the subject, that 'regime change' was inadvisable, primarily on the grounds that Iraq would collapse into chaos."
- Carne Ross, a diplomat at Britain's UN mission in New York, giving secret evidence to Lord Butler's enquiry into Iraq.

Needless to say, the Government originally covered this up and threatened him with the Official Secrets Act. If Blair knew the above, where did the 45 minutes come from? And where was Blair's supposed influence on America when it would have saved thousands of lives, both British and Iraqi, when he knew that chaos would ensue? He's just George Bush's yes-man, and he has knowingly put peoples lives at risk for political reasons. How much longer do we have to put up with a man that put's America's interests first, and makes the world a more dangerous place?

Comments:
problem is, all the British political leaders are scared of taking on America. It kinda reminds me of something Bill Hicks once said:

no matter what promises you make on the campaign trail - blah, blah, blah - when you win, you go into this smoky room with the twelve industrialist, capitalist scumfucks that got you in there, and this little screen comes down... and it's a shot of the Kennedy assassination from an angle you've never seen before, which looks suspiciously off the grassy knoll....

And then the screen comes up, the lights come on, and they say to the new president, 'Any questions?'


Of course, the Kennedy analogy doesn't really fit, but you get my point.
 
Ha ha! I remember that! Bill Hicks was a legend. I remember something else he said: "How do we know what weapons Saddam had? We looked at the receipt."
