		Ahmed, London, UK Sad to see your unbalanced Panorama debate today with warmongers like Perle and an old British politician using the opportunity to continue their arrogant and destructive attack on the French, who's representative was the voice of reason and good political manners, given all too little time.
		It is indeed shocking to hear all those politicians like Mr Reid and Mr Perle comparing the invasion of Iraq with that of Kosovo, which was also without the UN Security Council support.
		John Reid and Richard Perle have confirmed that the purpose of the invasion of Iraq is the removal of sad dam Hussein and not the legal reasons given in the un resolutions

		G F Fitzgerald (the Trinity physicist best-known for the 'Fitzgerald Contraction' as the explanation for the null result of the Michelson-Morley experiment, which led directly to Einstein's Special Relativity) and the Trinity elite of that generation were Irish to the extent that they fought their corner in the British institutions and looked after Irish interests.
