Simon Jenkins in the Times on what he thought of Tony's dossier.
"But yesterday’s dossier is not serious. Mr Blair told us yet again yesterday what a nasty person Saddam is. We know that. The task of leadership is not to write tabloid front pages but to judge how far a threat to the nation’s interest is real and, if so, how the nation should respond proportionately. Neither Mr Blair nor George Bush has yet explained what has suddenly led them to abandon containment of Iraq and to demand Saddam’s head on a plate".
What do you guys think? Are we really going to end up in another war in the Gulf?
want more?
