When it became clear that President George W. Bush was intent on invading Iraq and he found a close chum and obedient ally in Britainās former Prime Minister Tony Blair, what struck me was the incongruity of their relationship. How could two people whose only similarity appeared to be their ability to see things that were not there, get on and understand one another so well? Mr. Blair, presumably to impress on us just how chummy they had become, kept saying they were āstanding shoulder-to-shoulderā, even when they were sitting opposite one another. I was lucky to be privileged to learn at first-hand what they talked about when they met and in their frequent telephone conversations. When I was also fortunate to be given an insight into how Mr. Blair reported their exchanges to his wife Cherie, it occurred to me that my notes on what took place might throw some light on how they reached decisions by which we have all, to a greater or lesser extent, been affected.
