Remember the nutcases who believed that the war on Iraq was merely a pretext for a wholesale regime change in the region? Tony Blair, in his new book, says former US vice-president Dick Cheney wanted nothing less. [Cheney] thought the world had to be made anew and … it had to be done by force and with urgency. … He would have worked through the whole lot, Iraq, Syria, Iran, dealing with all their surrogates in the course of it, Hezbollah, Hamas, etc. Oops.
