British prime minister Tony Blair is due to appear before the parliamentary inquiry into legality of the Iraq war today, with public interest so keen that seats in the viewing gallery have been allocated by lottery. The inquiry has already heard from former UK attorney general Lord Goldsmith, who wrote to the prime minister in 2002 that military action in Iraq would be dependent on a UN resolution.

Watching this Chilcott inquiry with some fascination is lawyer Geoffrey Robertson QC, a former UN appeal judge and an occasional adviser to the British government.

  • what about the Neocon Jews, they did not like the info from security services. So Wolfowitz started " the office of special plans

  • Other sources have pointed out that this 911 attack was as inside job.

    John Boncore - Splitting the sky will defend his words as such. It was an inside job.

    Google Splitting the sky or watch him on Utube and make your own conclusions. He also tried do arrest George Bush in Canada.

  • @lyntonio Yes but as he said the Baath party in Iraq was a secular party. Far better than any theocratic government that will emerge there now as a result of the invasion. The "west's foreign policy" as you put it, shot itself in the foot.

  • Geoffrey Robertson... legal or not, I bet you Geoffrey hasn't read the 5 books of Islamic hate of all that is not Islam, that puts the west's Foreign Policy into a new context ....Islam's law is to subjugate the world..not my words but much of the words in the 5 books of Islam

  • Mr. Malikis Dangerous Ambition

    Feb 13, 2010

    The New York Times To resolve a dispute with the Tikrit provincial council,Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki of Iraq did what any good autocrat would do: He sent in the army.

    This is just the most recent example of thuggery by Mr. Maliki, who is determined to do anything he can to win re-election next month.
