Okay see the issue is that the information was lies, because the WMDs did not exist I was not aware this was still controversial

The Baroness received information and handed it over to the people tasked with analysing such information. Should she have withheld it?

Okay we're still not getting this She did NOT receive information Because the claims in the dossier were false, and there were no WMDs The "information" from her "sources" was blatant fucking lies Occam's Razor says she made it up, or was aware her "source" made it up

It is the year 2020 and people are out here saying that the "bad intel" about Saddam's WMDs was somehow a big plausible misunderstanding and none of the salesmen of the war did anything shady Good fucking Lord

Oh but you see the person who lied to start a war that primarily killed civilians also hates trans people, so it's ok

The only way out of admitting these people lied is the "We were duped too!" alibi, that there was a very clever and complex conspiracy among Saddam's people to *pretend* to have WMDs and leak the info to the US so we would kill them I do not find this theory plausible

But hell even if that were true that just downgrades her from "malicious liar" to "utterly gullible stupid foolish dumb dumb patsy and pawn who didn't in a million years deserve the job she had" It's not that different It's still her fault all those people died

Should she have withheld information that a hostile country was targeting England with WMDs that she had received from what she believed was a credible source for analysis by experts? The recruiters made the final decision. Not the Baroness.

No, she should not have made up that she had such information in order to start a phony war and finally take down Saddam
