Here here what many in the US either forget or maybe do not know Blair in fact dragged his feet initially on the war demanding that we went back to the UN for another resolution which failed.

IMHO Howard would not have done so and gone on 1441 and regime change due to threat to the area surrounding Iraq.

As far as I am concerned (and I got clobbered for saying back then), is that Blair allowed any WMD's that were in Iraq with his feet dragging to disappear into other countries or be buried IMHO. Going back to the UN was a total waste of time and unnecessary but people on here seemed to ignore Blair was behind the move.

I can still remember on his way to meet Pres Bush that he was talking to Bill Clinton about getting his help in the British elections. I often wondered if he was also seeking his advice on his upcoming meeting at the time with Pres Bush.
