This man's whole life is a LIE:
http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5iHNFV4-6i6RRE827rhcNp00A7MwQLONDON — Former British prime minister Tony Blair said he was "desperately sorry" over the deaths in the Iraq war, in extracts released Tuesday from his memoirs.
Blair said he was "sorry for the lives cut short", but maintained it was right to remove dictator Saddam Hussein from power, in extracts from "A Journey", his account of his decade in office.
He said the aftermath of the 2003 invasion was "terrible" and said he wept over the loss of life.
Blair said he still felt a sense of "anguish" for the relatives of those killed in the conflict.
"The anguish arises from a sense of sadness that goes beyond conventional description or the stab of compassion you feel on hearing tragic news," he wrote.
"Tears, though there have been many, do not encompass it.
"I feel desperately sorry for them, sorry for the lives cut short, sorry for the families whose bereavement is made worse by the controversy over why their loved ones died, sorry for the utterly unfair selection that the loss should be theirs."
Blair acknowledges that "we did not anticipate the role of Al-Qaeda or Iran" in post-invasion planning.
Al Queda isn't a real organization. Iran has been on the defensive throughout this whole charade.
One of the symptoms of Asperger's Syndrome is a very "literal" memory. No amount of spin or whitewash can color what I remember; I am relatively resistant to memory editing. I remember CLEARLY that early in the war Tony Blair was BRAGGING about the chance to get his "first blooding". Back then it was openly talked about, but history has since been revised 1984 style. Thankfully, the Internet remembers too:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-362725/Blair-relished-sending-British-forces-war.htmlAn explosive political row erupted last night after Downing Street tried to censor a book by one of Tony Blair's most senior former aides, revealing shocking details of how the Prime Minister runs the country.
Ex-No 10 spin doctor Lance Price has enraged Mr Blair by publishing the first-ever first-hand account of the inner workings of New Labour.
And he has defied the Cabinet Secretary's attempts to prevent the publication of his devastating memoirs, The Spin Doctor's Diary, serialised in The Mail on Sunday today.
They give a blow-by-blow account of endless backbiting, tantrums and rows between senior Ministers and officials and lay bare the cynicism of Blair's team.
But there are further claims which Price was told to remove from the book after intervention by the Government and which we can now reveal, including:
* That Blair appeared privately to "relish" sending British troops to war in Iraq as his "first blooding", while publicly claiming he did it "with a heavy heart".
* That the Government promised media mogul Rupert Murdoch it would not change its policy on Europe without telling him first.
* That the Prime Minister repeatedly bawled out in rage 'f****** Welsh' when an election in the principality was going against Labour.
* Two leaked letters obtained by The Mail on Sunday show how the diaries by respected former BBC journalist Price have thrown the Government into a panic. The first, sent by Cabinet Secretary Sir Gus O'Donnell to Price's publishers nine days ago, angrily accuses him of "betrayal" for refusing to be gagged.
Tony Blair is not who he pretends to be.
Do a Google search on "Tony Blair Operation Ore". It seems to be all over the place in the UK. Peter Mandelson and Tony Blair have a "special relationship" dating back (no pun intended) all the way to the 1970s, and apparently Gordon Brown is involved as well. I became aware of this fact when someone from Blair's old circle spilled the beans on antiwar.com, because he considered him a traitor.
What about Cherie? She has the masseuSE. The Blairs had to pay off a maid to delete that passage from her tell-tale book.
Some people have openly wondered if this makes the UK's ruling mafia subject to blackmail.
