Re: General Sir Michael Rose calls for Tony Blair's Impeachment
Damn
I missed the General this morning. I would have been very interested to hear what he had to say. Maybe I can get a transcript from somewhere or better still maybe someone can post it on this thread.
In my opinion this story is massive a with enormous implications for the nation and the armed forces. We were all duped into war with Iraq and for that the PM is accountable to the nation and its laws.
None of it was right from the very begining with Colin Powell and bogus phone taps played to the UN, plagiarised thesises by MI5, and the 45 minute WMD claim by Straw and Blair to the H of C and the effective rubbishing of Hans Blix's observations.
The general's comments may also have had some influence on Blair's TV appearance yesterday where he name checked his successor twice. Is he about to do a runner?
The plot sickens.
