    It's all there...

    Some of us knew what he was. Now everyone can see. I think the worst calumny in his whole dodgy career was as a Peace Envoy in the Middle-East. Pity the poor, bloody, occupied Palestinians.

    As somebody once said, it's not the despair that's so hard to take, it's the hope. And, in this respect, Blair does indeed let everybody down. His legacy, if that's what you call it, is still with us today. You can see it in the Parliamentary Labour Party: going to the high court to appeal against allowing Labour Party members a party leadership vote. And using party members' funds for the privilege.

    The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

    Probing, revealing and disturbing

    Everybody in the nation knows that this man is and was corrupt and deserves to be behind bars... the scary thing is that Chilcot or not, absolutely nothing will happen or him... ever! A great documentary that does Galloway great credit as the man whoa always said and is still saying what people seem to be too complacent to hear. Blair has helped to turn the world into a minefield, has destroyed his own party, has destroyed socialism and has ensured that his people are fast approaching a state of penury... he sowed the seeds and prepared the ground for all of Cameron's greed fest... he is a murderer, a thief and a liar... and for this he is still paid in millions by fellow criminals. welcome to the 21st century!

    A Documentary of Importance.

    This is not an impartial or balanced documentary. But is anybody surprised ? After all, it is led by George Galloway a man who was thrown out from the Labour party by Tony Blair- A personal enemy perhaps as well as political. Once you accept this inherent bias the true value of the documentary comes through. This is not a simple tarring and feathering of a politician, but an analysis into Tony Blair's corruption and criminality and an insight into the economic and political systems which fosters and supports such behavior then and still today.

    The warnings and lessons highlighted by this documentary serve as a reminder of the unsolved problems of today and the future.

    Corbyn would approve

    The Killing$ of Tony Blair. A documentary film about the legacy of Blair and how he's personally profited million$ from his own greed and corruption. As might be expected by a film narrated by George Galloway, it is unashamedly one sided, but benefits from the testaments of numerous political commentators, including Clare Short, Will Self, Naom Chomsky and many others. It serves as a timely reminder of the days when the Labour Party lost its core values and how the apparent mess the current party finds itself, as portrayed by the rich and powerful media, is a mere sideshow to protect the status quo of greed, power, inequality and the politics of fear. Corbyn would approve. 8 out of ten.

    A shocking story that everyone needs to hear.

    This is a shocking story of a corrupted prime minister who sold his soul for money. Tony Blair is a war criminal who financially benefited from the Iraq war. This documentary shows him as he is - charming and persuasive but in the same time scruples, greedy, lying politician who can look into his innocent victims eyes and feel no empathy. The political system is so corrupted that not only he is not in prison but enjoying the fortune he made out of allowing to kill millions of innocent victims. Be aware that the documentary shows some brutal images of child victims. Will never look at Tony Blair the same way again. I wonder how can this man look in the mirror every morning.

      In order to fully understand the pain some people have been through at the hands of Western soldiers, George Galloway was waterboarded. The footage never made it into the film as it was too harrowing.
