Mr. Tony Blair was a participant in the GHWBushSr
Disinformation Program prior to becoming UK prime
minister.
The smirk on his face in the above picture tells the true story.

Give it up Tony. Be the Whistleblower on the Bushies like a good guy. All will be forgiven for your part, well it might be hard considering the fatalities concerned, but it’s the right thing to do. OK, I guess you can’t, but the Queen might Knight you for telling the truth anyway.

The Iraq Inquiry, led by former civil servant John Chilcot, is a hideous camouflage. It is a stage managed show to justify an open aggression and blatant intransigence of international law by the Western powers, particularly the US and UK.
Out of the five members of the inquiry’s committee, Martin Gilbert and Lawrence Freedman, were strong supporters of Tony Blair and the Iraq war. Both Gilbert and Freedman are Jewish, and that Gilbert has a record of active support for Zionism. So what would the Muslim world expect from such Zionists in the Iraq Inquiry Commission.
It is a fact that the campaign to overthrow Saddam Hussein was initiated, well before 9/11, by a group of influential American neo-cons, notably Perle, Feith and Wolfowitz (described by TIME
magazine as “the godfather of the Iraq war”) nearly all of whom were ardent Zionists, in many cases more concerned with preserving the security of Israel than that of the U.S.
And Tony Blair served as a loyal and submissive poodle of President Bush.
Tony Blair’s testimony on 29th January 2010, showed to what extent he would go to deceive the world. He said he had no regrets over the killing of millions of innocent Iraqis. The price was worth. He made a statement at the Inquiry saying that even if Iraq was not possessing WMD, he would have helped Americans to invade Iraq. Look at his racist and colonial arrogance and vain- glory.
One True Almighty God warns through the revelation ( The Quran) as follows:
“HOW MANY A GENERATIONS WE HAVE DESTROYED BEFORE THEM, WHO WERE MORE IMPOSING IN RESPECT OF GEAR AND OUTWARD SEEMING” Sura 19 Mary: Verse 74.
“WE DESTROYED MEN MIGHTIER THAN THESE IN PROWESS” Sura 43: Verse 8
LET POLITICIANS GO AROUND THE WORLD AND SEE FOR THEMSELVES, HOW MANY HUGE, EMPIRES THAT HAD BEEN MORE POWERFUL AND MIGHTIER ( than the present day America) HAD BEEN DESTROYED IN THE PAST BY GOD FOR THEIR ARROGANCE AND INTRASIGENCE.
Report thisWill it take too long for God Almighty to bring UK and USA to rabbles if they persisted in their arrogance and injustice. Are they greater than the Roman Empire or Pharaohs of Egypt? Where are they now?. Greedy politicians hardly learn lessons from history.

Key lines from the BBC report: “The public were not given the “full information” about the extent of division in the government over the issue ...” and ... SNP leader and Scottish first minister Alex Salmond accused Mr Blair of weaving a “tapestry of deceit”.(Brutal nderstatement, that!)
Report thisThe way to “weave a tapestry of deceit” is to keep secret the information people need to wisely influence their (now nominally democratic) governments.
” Tapestries of deceit” don’t wear well, as experience has shown once again. Truth will out, the sooner, the better.
Diplomacy can be more than “weaving tapestries of deceit,” but it will take some changes in habituated diplomatic machinations and a willingness of leaders to wipe those assinine smiles off their faces and work honestly for peace instead of apologizing afterward for tens of thousands of dead bodies and acres of ruined buildings and cluster bombs left behind for kids to step on by mistake.
“So sorry” doesn’t bring anybody any justice, happiness or forgiveness. It’s a band-aid on a cancer. Apologies R Us. George Bush knows it. Rumsfeld knows it, and Tony Blair knows it. Everybody knows it! The point is, don’t fire missiles, don’t drop bombs, don’t, don’t, don’t. Make peace, not war, etc.

So? It’s just more pap to appease the masses.
Tony Blair will go home tonight, take off his fancy wristwatch, and snuggle up to his wife safely and securely in his nice home, no doubt with some security detail standing watch.
Am I really supposed to believe he gives a good Goddam about the Iraqi people?
Next thing he’ll be trying to sell me a bridge.
Only reason Britain signed on to the Iraq fiasco can be summed up with two letters: BP.
All the rest is smoke and mirrors.
