The BBC and Channel Four television aired the secret March 7, 2003 report on Wednesday, saying it showed Attorney General Lord Goldsmith cast doubt on whether the war was legal just days before Blair ordered British troops to join the invasion.

Mr Grieve, who seems to have decided that he can speak for the Muslim community, thinks that “justified” anger has to do with the war in Iraq, despair over the Islamic world and the decadence of Western society.
