He just had to go ...

In other words, they would have found any excuse (lie) to get rid of him*, American and British lives be damned:

Reporting from London - Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair has said he would have found a justification for invading Iraq even without the now-discredited evidence that Saddam Hussein was trying to produce weapons of mass destruction.

"I would still have thought it right to remove him. I mean, obviously you would have had to use and deploy different arguments about the nature of the threat," Blair told the BBC in an interview to be broadcast this morning.

...


Blair is as big a war criminal as Bush and Cheney.

Update:

Dr. Attaturk with a corollary:

...

In Great Britain, thanks to the fact that investigations actually occur to hold past Administrations accountable...as opposed to here...the shit is hitting the fan. Witness the crazed dancing of Tony Blair coming to terms with the consequences of his actions.

But in this country Dick Cheney and his spawn are allowed to lie without even being challenged in interviews, let alone be accountable for their war mongering.
