Blair wants Iraq/Middle East War 3

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-29305840

Has not not realised:

1) How many troops have died/suffered since his 2003 quest for glory?

2) That his ME government changing efforts have factored into the UK's poor economic condition?

3) That the armed forces (under him, Brown and the Coalition) have been dramtically reduced so much that there's only the Trident nuclear SLBMs left to strike?

4) That war is against his development efforts?
