The crux of the matter
A comment by Taziq posted on The Guardian election weblog.
The British press make me laugh. The War in Iraq (my own country I shall add) is not a game, it is not a question of whether or not Mr Blair saw the linesman waving his flag or not! Whatever the rules may say - however he and President Bush interpreted them - they have gotten rid of a man who murdered my fellow countrymen (and countrywomen) on an almost daily basis.
Please, would some of you who think that the war was such a bad idea, and who now debate whether or not it was or was not legal, tell me, were it not legal, should we still then have to suffer Hussein?
