Here the second part of the historical speech. Full of wisdom, insight and very moving.
First speech ever in the House of Commons to end in a standing ovation.
From March 17, 2003.

2. And within 48 hours of that speech, Bush sent his troops into Iraq

. . . and Tony Blair went forth, wagging his tail behind him.

Rest in peace, Robin Cook.
