Is Blair an imbecile or a liar?
Knowing full well that an early draft of the September dossier didn't make the case for war, Blair himself wrote a foreword which highlighted the claim:
[the dossier] discloses that his military planning allows for some of the WMD to be ready within 45 minutes of an order to use them. -- The Butler Report.
But Blair later claimed that he was unaware that this intelligence "referred only to battlefield, as opposed to long-range, arms."
Are we to believe that Blair highlighted this claim without knowing what it referred to? Even though he endorsed the September dossier as "extensive, detailed and authoritative"?
