Iraq? Tony's things

Gordon Brown, before the commission of investigation of the war of Iraq:

The prime minister has done an exercise of rewriting of the history on having paid little attention to the weapons of mass destruction, the principal reason to invade Iraq, according to Blair. He says that the invasion was “the correct decision taken for the correct reasons”. What were these reasons? “To impose the will of the international community”, in Brown words, on Sadam Hussein, which had refused to fulfill the resolutions of United Nations.

Brown has supported the fiction of which up to the last weekend previous to the invasion it had hopes that the crisis was solved by diplomatic river beds. As Blair, blames of everything to France and his announcement of veto to the second resolution that was justifying the war.

When the commission has reminded to him that the French only wanted more time so that the inspectors were doing his work, Brown has limited himself to answering that he did not know it because he was not the Minister for Foreign Affairs.
