A few days after President Bush's State of the Union Address, Prime Minister Blair spoke to the House of Commons today. I was surprised by what sounded like a roll reversal; Prime Minister Blair sounded more forceful than President Bush did. While Blair didn't exactly provide a full list of reasons why Hussein should be overthrown, he did provide more information about the UN inspections than Bush did.
Is all of this just a prelude to Colin Powell's visit to the UN for a call to military confrontation?

While I hope war is avoidable, I do agree with Prime Minister Blair; we need to enforce the UN resolutions. If they are broken, we must take action. If we fail to enforce these resolutions this time, we will never be taken seriously by any threatening nation.
How do our UK OptiBoarders feel about all of this?
