If Blair's ministers didn't know war was, they're too dumb to complain now

For Britain to have yet another inquiry into the Iraq war, seven years after the toppling of a genocidal dictator, since replaced by an elected government, seems an attempt to punish Tony Blair with exhaustion and to nag everyone else into submission into the appeasement camp.

How unworldly the debate is may be judged by this question put to the clearly astonished and even amused Blair: did his own Cabinet know that he was planning for war if Saddam Hussein didn't met the UN's final, final ultimata?
