Witnesses for the prosecution: how Blair is suffering trial by Chilcot
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/witnesses-for-the-prosecution-how-blair-is-suffering-trial-by-chilcot-1844259.html

While the former head of MI6, Sir John Scarlett, told the committee that Mr Blair had been made aware of last-minute intelligence that Saddam Hussein's weapons had been dismantled, his personal adviser also weighed in this week. Sir John Sawers, foreign affairs adviser to the former Prime Minister, said he did not share Mr Blair's confidence that invading had been the right decision. "Frankly, had we known the scale of the violence, it might well have led to second thoughts about the entire project," he said.



If Blair knew then Bush knew yet the lies were still told to us. And they are repeated even now by the right wing in the US.

1. I'll cry for the poodle.... well, never.
Blair needs to meet (next) with Dumbya, Dick and the rest of the gang at the Hague.
