Underestimated effect of toppling Saddam: Blair
Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair on Tuesday admitted that Britain and America "profoundly underestimated" the chaos that would be caused by toppling Saddam Hussein's government in Iraq. Blair, who led Britain during the 2003 conflict, however, did not apologise for the intervention. The comments come just ahead of the Chilcot inquiry report on UK's role in the Iraq war.
