We went into Iraq on a lie. The lie being seeking weapons of mass destruction or has everyone forgotten that?

No WMD’s were found and at that point we should have pulled out. Unfortunately by the time that it became obvious that no WMD’s would be found it was too late and civil war was smouldering.

We have to stay and finish the job. However what our government MUST do is provide our troops with the right tools to do the job and protect themselves properly whilst doing it. Otherwise the 100 plus British soldiers and the thousands of Iraqi military and civilians killed would have died in vain.

I’m not quite sure how we managed to get embroiled in the Afghanistan conflict unless it was Tony being order by Bush to go in. I have a feeling that the Yanks poked their nose in because of the poppy industry and the heroin that it produces. I think that we should pull out of Afghanistan and bolster our troops in Iraq.
