Re: General Sir Michael Rose calls for Tony Blair's Impeachment
Bliar can be impeached, by the House of Lords, but the motion must be instigated in the House of Commons.
The general's comments are most welcome and are reflective of the changed relationship between the Armed Forces and the government.
If the UK decides to take on Iran/Syria/Iraq again in the limited time he has left, then I believe this changed relationship will be very conspicuous, with resignations of commissions under the following circumstances:
a. if any case for war whatsoever is presented by Bliar;
b. if his successor attempts to go to war without both a parliamentary vote (no lies dressed up as intelligence) and the full disclosure of the legal advice of the Attorney General (and any associated discussions).
I suspect the spooks would revolt as well rather than have their name ruined by association with propaganda dressed up as intelligence and, as the cases of Katherine Gun and the two Labour MPs who leaked information to the Democratic Party demonstrate, the OSA is not the guarantee against embarrassment it once was.
Watch the phoney war in Afghanistan pick up momentum...mission creep ahead!
