Iraq Inquiry Threatens Blair's Legacy

Quentin Letts, Forbes | February 5, 2010

The results of Britain’s inquiry into the legitimacy of the Iraq War threatens to tarnish Tony Blair’s legacy. ++ Evidence suggests that Blair agreed to commit troops to Bush’s war “no matter what happened”. ++ Despite attempts to charm his interrogators and the British people, Blair is viewed as little more than George W. Bush’s lackey. ++ Further damaging testimony accuses Blair of misinforming his cabinet members and essentially duping them into supporting the war. ++ The final report is expected to come out by the end of this year.
