Well, Blair's chosen to make this rod for his own back.. IMO the saddest point (for him) is that he really does feel it as a matter of principle, that Saddam is too evil to remain in power, and that was/is why he's so keen on 'influencing' the US to work to remove him... and probably others to follow. I'm not sure if he realised that the neocons and Likudniks are working for not dissimilar ends but completely different rationales...

Surely seven days is not too much for a man who has immolated himself for another man's obsession. Delaying an inevitable war is not going to help anyone. What the world is protesting is the lack of any consideration to anything but war. What is needed is a real and accurate investigation of the question of Saddams's capabilities and intentions. It should be definiative. Once it is done then it will be apparent if Saddam has been undertaking secret hanky-panky or if he is just brooding in the shell of a shattered army. Team Bush wants to avoid the definitive answer. TP
