Blair in secret plot with Bush to dupe U.N.
Blair in secret plot with Bush to dupe U.N

by SIMON WALTERS, Mail on Sunday 08:22am 29th January 2006


A White House leak revealing astonishing details of how Tony Blair and George Bush lied about the Iraq war is set to cause a worldwide political storm.

A new book exposes how the two men connived to dupe the United Nations and blows the lid off Mr Blair's claim that he was a restraining influence on Mr Bush.


He offered his total support for the war at a secret White House summit as Mr Bush displayed his contempt for the UN, made a series of wild threats against Saddam Hussein and showed a devastating ignorance about the catastrophic aftermath of the war.

Based on access to information at the highest level, the book by leading British human rights lawyer Philippe Sands QC, Professor of Law at London University, demonstrates how the two men decided to go to war regardless of whether they obtained UN backing.

1. They're doing it again because they weren't held accountable before
How many more hundreds of thousands have to die -- it will be millions next time --before these criminals are finally arrested by the Generals?

2. With all the evidence against both * and blair, they should both be in
jail. Like you state, "How many more have to die?"

4. So much more satisfying to see the FBI and MI6 lead them out in cuffs.
And, a lot less bloody.

5. Nothing these two do surprises me anymore
Blair is just as guilty as Bush as far as I'm concerned. Blair is excused by some but no one tied a rope around his neck and dragged him into this war. He participated voluntarily.
