Sir Tony Blair - worthy knight or war criminal?

Hatred of Tony Blair has become a socially acceptable cult that grossly oversimplifies the true causes of the Iraq War. It unites people from the far left (who treat Blair as a heretic), people from the libertarian right inclined towards non-interventionism, radical Islamists who promote Islamic imperialism, and pacifists unwilling to use military force under any circumstances. This unity tends to be informed by a Marxist definition of imperialism, and is essentially opposed to historic Western democracy. Whatever Blair's faults, his present-day detractors are far more dangerous to the West.
