Berlusconi says he was against the war in Iraq. No he wasn't.
He was one of the major countries of the coalition. The Italians are still in Iraq despite the fact that the majority of Italians want their troops out of Iraq.

How is it that Berlusconi can say he told Bush not to go to Iraq when he himself went? France and Germany were opposed to the Iraq invasion and they did not send troops there. Consequently, they became the bane of American wingnuts while Italy received star treatment.

Berlusconi is a liar, and a bad one at that.

He's a corporo-fascist and was a supporter of Bush and the war.
