You're a liar and murderer they screamed at him: Fury in public gallery as Blair says 'I have not a regret'

An unrepentant Tony Blair was heckled and jeered by families of Britain's war dead last night as he declared he had 'not a regret' about invading Iraq and toppling Saddam Hussein.
At the end of what had been billed as his 'Judgment Day', the former Prime Minister made it clear he would do the same again - and warned world leaders they may soon have to take similar decisions over Iran.
Despite the deaths of up to 700,000 Iraqis and 179 British troops, Mr Blair said he felt 'responsibility but not a regret' as he concluded his six hours of evidence to the Chilcot inquiry.

12. Or be human
No a regret? Not one? Not a single one? Not even being called Bush's poodle?

9. I have now read two of your posts
and both make that same point. But in neither do you provide any support for your opinion. No link. No quote. Just 'I think'. Twice.

7. No regrets, war criminals rarely do.
There is a pathology involved in being able to kill that many people for no reason at all. Such people are beyond the normal human emotions. Tony Blair changed in a very drastic way. He is an example of how a human being's entire personality can be altered going from relatively normal, to pure evil. I've never seen it before in anyone else. Bush, eg, was always evil. I wonder what did it to him? He is completely unmoved by the pain and suffering he has caused and is even now planning on inflicting more.

It's scary to watch that transformation from decent human being to evil, cruel war-monger.

So, what will they do with him or is this all just for show?

14. Perhaps people who go from good to evil can reverse that path
True evil never does, but someone who is not pure can probably reverse their desires.

16. Where is the public outcry demanding one?
I am all for a complete and thorough investigation but regretfully I don't think us posters at DU demanding one is enough to get the job done.

Just looking at this realistically.

17. public outcry wants a public option too, public outcry was marching against wars
but unless we send huge checks to our elected officials, they ignore us.
public outcry gets us NOwhere anyway. they dont listen.
