Blair in denial and detatched from reality, continuing his Bliar Liar persona.
Naturally as adherents to the MCH we view material causes and see other actors in the catastrophe but we also accept that a situation can be exacerbated by the decisions of individual culprits….
In due course we will have his deceit dissected by the more objective observers on the web but i do wonder why the so-called respectable press insist in airing Blair's opinions and decline from publishing at the same time rebuttals. He certainly has a direct line to the editors of the BBC,Guardian and the Independent.
I have no trust that the Chilcot Inquiry will point the finger, more likely wag the finger and say naughty naughty. But i suspect that the determination of Blair to put his side of the story is related and he is busy offering his alibis
June 17, 2014 at 7:13 pm #102160james19ParticipantNazi military leader Hermann Göring blamed everybody but himself too, at his trial at the Nuremberg Trials for War crimes.I have seen the images of the killing of Iraqi Government solders, and I watched a video posted on the Web, of a handful of caputured Iraqi soldiers being excuted, by ISIS militia.I know that this video has upset lots of people on social media.

Auto biographies and memoirs are full of confessions and admissions of war crimes committted by otherwise reasonable, rational men.
