Blair admitted the Iraq War was not popular in England. It was the economy that got Blair's Party reelected with a lot smaller number not the support for the war. Bushies never admit the facts - Both in America and on the other side of the pond in England the majority think the Iraq war was an error! Look at Iraq this week! Over 300 dead!

" Blair admitted the Iraq War was not popular in England."

Tony admitted that many would disagree with the decision he took. It's not the war that people dislike it's the way he went about making that decision. The war has widespread approval.

"Look at Iraq this week! Over 300 dead!"

I am willing to bet that more than 300 people kicked the bucket in Britain this week. Does this mean Britain is unstable? Of course not. These deaths are just natural wastage that any country experiences. These lives will be replaced by births. Besides, more than 300 people per week were being butchered by Saddam, these people are dying for the noble cause of democracy.

The proof will be in the nature of the governmnet that results in Iraq after all foreign forces are out of the country. I do not think the majority (over 50%) of people in America or England agree with the war. We went to war predicated on Saddam being a danger to America. That was untrue! Then it was because he defied the U N and was Evil. Now it is the "spreading democracy" concept of George W. We need to make up our mind and not use the reason du jour.

You lot take yourselves FAR TOO seriously. What heads will roll? It's a fucking low ranking, low-traffic blog site!!!!!!

--I mean that why post it, when SPM knows that others on this site are going to cause a problem because of conflicting views...sure this isn't a big blog site, but still, why incite a conflict that doesn't need to be started...common sense [maybe not too common]

We went to war predicated on Saddam being a danger to America

-I remember hearing that in Bush's State of the Union prior to the Iraq Invasion, he listed the reasons why to invade iraq, and that there were many...[WMD,etc..] Is that true...do you know where i could find a copy or source to find that specific SOU speech?

Bushies never admit the facts

--Not true....i know many 'bushites' [not on this website] who are honest and admit the facts, but the view they have of them are just different than others...including mine...[BTW COL,where would you consider yourself,left,right,center.....Me...not too sure, i think that i am more of a realist,or at least one that relies more on common sense and hard facts...{occasionally } ]

Both in America and on the other side of the pond in England the majority think the Iraq war was an error!

--Now i don't really trust polls, because though they say they have polled a wide grouping, there are those who watch the news,etc... but don't like taking polls,etc... so those who don't view polls kindly...arn't represented...also, these polls can be adjusted accordingly...as can other things...

Tony admitted that many would disagree with the decision he took. It's not the war that people dislike it's the way he went about making that decision. The war has widespread approval.

--Although i am against the Death penalty, yet support war, though as a last resort....i think there comes a time in any leader of a nation when they have to make a tough decision, [Bush->Iraq, Truman->Dropping the A Bomb,etc...] and even though the majority, or minority may oppose the decision, i think that they make it for their respective countries betterment....[fogive my atrocious spelling... ]

unstable?

--Unstable: its all relative....

The proof will be in the nature of the governmnet that results in Iraq after all foreign forces are out of the country.

--I think that one of the major things opposing the new government is the rivalry [like gangs] each have their own goals,beliefs,etc... and creating such a country where they all can live in anytype of peace is going to be a struggle...a lot of egos,etc..are going to be hurt.....

The answer is simple, round up all the Iraqis and gas them all. Then move loads of American and British newly weds to Iraq to populate the now vacant country. If only I were in charge!
