Liar Liar Pants on Fire

More evidence is appearing reaffirming that Bush wanted to invade Iraq without any compelling reason and was asking Blair for help, and even a justification. Read it here.
The warning, in a leaked Cabinet Office briefing paper, said Tony Blair had already agreed to back military action to get rid of Saddam Hussein at a summit at the Texas ranch of President George W Bush three months earlier.

The briefing paper, for participants at a meeting of Blair'’s inner circle on July 23, 2002, said that since regime change was illegal it was “necessary to create the conditions” which would make it legal.

“It is just possible that an ultimatum could be cast in terms which Saddam would reject,” the document says. But if he accepted it and did not attack the allies, they would be “most unlikely” to obtain the legal justification they needed.
Of course, once again, this is being ignored by the U.S. media.

WWJD?
