Bush and Blair took us to war with Iraq.

Killing a few brown people ain’t that bad, deckers breed like rabbits anyway

It’s when they start having mousey or blonde hair it gets unpalatable

Absolutely. They didn't even declare war on the country so that's a war crime in itself. Bush wanted a scapegoat for 9/11 and Saddam would do because he didn't know where Bin Laden was. Blair trotted along as the yanks pet poodle the same as Thatcher did.
They caused more unrest in the middle east than anything before.
It was terrorists that were responsible for 9/11. Killing Saddam made him a martyr just as Bloody Sunday was the best recruiting drive the IRA could have wished for.
Terrorists are a tiny minority of a countries population.

Yep, Bush junior didn't have the nouse his father had and the 2003 invasion was a deliberate breach of international law which Blair all too willingly got on board with. The whole WMD thing was complete bo llocks and whilst Saddam may have been a tyrant there was no proper plan as to who to replace him with. The links made by Bush between Saddam and Al Qaeda in the wake of 9/11 were also idiotically wrong. How anyone could seriously lump the two together is beyond me. The damage caused by Bush and Blair to Iraq is still very much in evidence today. Both have a lot to answer for.
