This is a tough one to call. I don't know what we should do as I don't have all the facts. I think that Blair honestly believes that he is doing what is best given the options that he does have. Do nothing and wait for Saddam to drop a chemical bomb on someone, or go to war now and put an end to his reign. How quickly people forget the past. How many remember the thousands of Iranians that were gassed to death by Saddam? Or the other races that have come under attack by him? It's not what he does in his own country that has got us this far, it is what he has done to other countries and what he may do given enough time.
I am not pro war or against it, I just don't know enough to make that decision. If I was in charge, I would send out groups of deligates to talk to all the countries of the middle east, I would find out exactly why they are so angry with the west and what we could do to change all that. The only way to have long lasting peace is to talk and more importantly, listen.
