The Iraq War is a Disaster

Tony Blair, the British prime minister, has admitted in an interview with Al Jazeera English that events in Iraq since the US-led invasion have been a "disaster". Blair was speaking exclusively to David Frost.But he insisted that it was right to remove Saddam Hussein, the country's former leader, from power and blamed al-Qaeda, Sunni fighters and Iran-backed forces for the ongoing violence.Responding to a suggestion from Frost that the conflict had been a disaster from the start, Blair replied "it has", before blaming a combination of factors for the crisis.

Holy Cow
Mother of god
spare the child
spoil the rod
Blair opens his heart
to a Frosty God
the Iraq War is a disaster
Atrocities
Destruction
Despoliation
words of an English Toy Poodle
The Silence of his Master
Saddam the Iraqi
Bush the American
Both heads
Of a single monster
a collective guilt
who will take responsibility
unending death roster
created by war criminals
a thought that is a mind blaster


this is an old poem
