IT is vital that we get to the truth of whether the dossiers given out by the Government were exaggerated in order to obtain backing for the war in Iraq.

Now the stated aims of the US and UK governments are pre-emptive strikes on countries that are judged to be part of the "Axis of Evil", accurate, honest and up-to-date intelligence is vital.

How can anyone trust the Government, the Intelligence services or even the Media at the moment.They are all sniping at each other.

All these parties should realise that it is their total credibility, not their individual credibility, that is at stake and the sooner they get down to really seeking the truth the better.

As I see it, the only way to get at the truth is by a Judicial Inquiry. I do not care whose neck is on the block. I am fed up with lies, spin, counter-lies and counter-spin.
