Chilcot, Coulson, corrupt cops and Rupert Murdoch

The Chilcot Inquiry questioning of Blair today was weaker than last years, Sir Lyne especially accepted Blairs narrative that 'AQ' and Iran were to blame and kept asking Blair why he had been so poorly advised? Utter bullshit. Chris Ames was the only journalist to nail Blair tot he cross he made us all bear, and he did it here:

Beyond Ames' article, it should be pointed out that the military families jeered Blair's belated, half-hearted attempt at an apology as 'Too Late'. Good on them.
The BBC and Sky TV acted as one in dumping the Chilcot Inquiry for 'news' that Andy Coulson had publicly announced his resignation, followed by a flurry of media pimps. Andrew Gilligan said this was an own-goal by the Conservative Party as it distracted from the embarrassing news for the Labour Party of Blair's second coming onto Chilcot. That is nonsense in my opinion, this was shit-shovellers Friday, where one Murdoch employ ( David Cameron) distracted from another Murdoch employees ( Blairs) embarrassment. The BBC and Sky knew the Coulson statement was coming and they shelved the Chilcot coverage not only for the anouncement, but for the pre-announcement that there would be an announcement.
And out of the media abusers who were paraded on the TV to distract from Blair, only one said anything of interest. Paul McMullan, the NotW dominatrix who was coincidentally on hand to give Hugh Grant a lift when his car broke down, denigrated Coulson and claimed other 'journalists' denigrated Coulson, for not sticking up for journalists. He said tabloid journalists have a right not just to hack celebrity phones for 'public interest material', ie gossip, but to pay off police-officers for stories of interest. He was the one gimp willing to be indignant in public that they shouldn't be above any laws. And this is the story that no other journalist broke, the fact the media buy police officers regularly and think this is in the public interest. Corrupt cops such as Andy Hayman, who covered up the NotW crimes in exchange for a well-paid post within the Murdoch empire, or the cops who leaked the Sheridan police interviews to the BBC.
Today's coverage is proof perfect. The cops, the corporate journalists, the governing politicians all have a price, and the man who pays that price currently is Rupert Murdoch. Democracy my arse, this is a sicker kleptocracy than Tunisia ever was.

...and it would have been difficult for it to be any weaker - I mean considering how weak it was last time. They get away with it though - everyone in UK inc. has gone to sleep or moved on to phony environmental protests. It is not surprising that Mi5 is able to infiltrate the protests so easily - sharper minds are sorely needed.

Yet again with its everybody else's fault, yet again Blair being free (and still alive) is all part of the global plot by those who apparently govern the world you live in.
Yet again, IMC is smothered by pro-Labour activists pretending they are members of the public offering objective views but actually offering Blair and his minions a defence they can't offer themselves.
Yet again, yet again, yet again.
Tony Blair is a war criminal and his only defence, is that which you offer him free of charge. There is now doubt about it, this so-called analysis you are trying to put forward achieves only one thing...keeping him free and on the streets.
Prosecute him and punish him for the crimes he HAS committed. No one gives a shit about the Chilcott enquiry, it has already been established that the Chilcott enquiry is a put up job with the aim of excusing and whitewashing the most serious crime committed on British soil in the modern era...the waging of an aggressive war without any evidence at all that it posed a threat to the security of this country.
Tony Blair is suspected of criminal adventure and that fact alone is enough to have him in court.
Any publishing of feeble excuses and complaints here at IMC about the way things are help and give aid and succour to this criminal.
Unless of course you are a Labour Party activist, in which case you have a clear reason to want to prevent Tony Blair from going on trial. You have a clear reason to write obscure defensive op ed to help diffuse the public's view about what to do.
Tony Blair must hang for his crimes.
