BLAIR GUILT MONEY FOR BRITISH LEGION TO PREPARE THEM FOR IRAN WAR

As a witness to the Chilcot Inquiry Blair spent his time not answering the questions put to him but instead laid the foundations for war on Iran by peddling the same Zionazi lies that were used to attack Iraq.

And he now has the cheek to buy off the military by donating his fee from his memoirs to the British Legion!

A war on Iran will lead to many many more deaths and injuries and maimings than those that have resulted since his lying us into war on Iraq.

Tony Blair pledges book proceeds to Royal British Legion

Former PM marks 'enormous sacrifice' of armed forces by donating money from memoirs, including £4.6m advance

Tony Blair, who led the UK into wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, is to donate the proceeds from his forthcoming memoir to the Royal British Legion.

A spokesman for the former prime minister, who is understood to have already received a £4.6m advance for A Journey, said he would hand over all the money he makes – including the advance – "as a way of marking the enormous sacrifice [the armed forces] make for the security of our people and the world".

Blair's spokesman added: "In making this decision, Tony Blair recognises the courage and sacrifice the armed forces demonstrate day in, day out. As prime minister he witnessed that for himself in Iraq, Afghanistan, Northern Ireland, Sierra Leone and Kosovo. This is his way of honouring their courage and sacrifice."
