Here's why...

Time to mount a massive campaign in support of our commitment to Iraqi freedom. We must keep our boys in Iraq for as many years as possible. It would be a disgrace to pull out now. Support our Prime Minister! Write to your local newspaper now! Here's why (Daily Telegraph):

British defence chiefs are concerned that plans for Britain and America to set up a stabilisation force for Iraq without United Nations support will put impossible financial and manpower strains on the Army.

Aware of their grave reservations, Tony Blair tried to persuade Donald Rumsfeld, the US defence secretary, in talks at Chequers on Friday that UN support would bring in other countries and relieve Britain and America of the need to commit large numbers of troops.
