Impeach Blair!
The ex-UN commander in Bosnia General Sir Michael Rose said Mr Blair had to take responsibility for his actions. "To go to war on what turns out to be false grounds is something that no one should be allowed to walk away from," he told BBC Radio 4's Today programme.
Hmmm, if Newsnight take this up I suspect the Government may field Eric Joyce to deal with it. He normally gets called up when Blair is attacked on military issues.
A Downing Street spokesman said Sir Michael was entitled to his view but had been retired for some time.
And that could well be what he says too. As Tim Ireland points out, Sir Michael said it was a bad idea before it happened.
