manc-mag 1 Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 The very notion that there was ever going to be one view of whether it was legal or not though. It's hardly like it was a fucking PI claim. Blair might as well have gone down the CAB with the question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Yoo was similarly devoid of contrition on The Daily Show recently, depite personally tearing up the Geneva convention.

Park Life 71 Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 "MI6, it transpires, learned of Saddam’s 45-minute capability from – get this – a taxi driver who had two Iraqi military officials in the back of his cab once. Or to more exact, the intelligence came from a bloke who heard it from a taxi driver who had overhead two other blokes some time ago." ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Park Life 71 Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Why Iraq and not Iran is the hook to all of this. He's mentiong Iran quite a lot at the moment. His defence is basically that based against risk of taking no action he couldn't chance it. Using his hands a lot showimg how much pressure he's under. But he is LYING. The Army had already been told to prepare while he was telling Parliament that no descision had been made. America were going in anyway regardless of the UN resolutions.

manc-mag 1 Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 PS Richard Fucking Madeley on Question Time the other week: Blair can't have been lying because he said the same thing when he and Cherie were at a dinner with him and his wide Judy-the bombastic, namedropping bellend. I'm paraphrasing marginally, but basically saying 'of course theres a danger he might lie to you scratters, but if he said the same thing to him and his wife Judy then you can rest assured it's gospel!' Delusional floppy haired granny magnet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won't be going into Iran mate. Way too tricky. I'm guessing Israel will make an air strike using American satellite data. The result will be terrorist backlash in Western cities. The cycle continues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
