Blair Profits from Iraq War
11 01 08 - 08:42 Blair accused of taking blood money over £1m job with US bank profiting from Iraq warTony Blair has taken a lucrative job with a U.S. bank which is profiting from the Iraq war.
JPMorgan is expected to pay him £1million a year as a part-time adviser.
It is the first of a series of posts that could see the former prime minister rake in a staggering £40million.
The move brought fierce criticism last night. Reg Keys, whose soldier son Tom was killed in Iraq in 2003, said it was "almost akin to taking blood money".

Blair has a lot of sins to confess to and atone for next time he visits the confessional. (He recently converted to Catholicism). Or perhaps he just has a strange idea of what God wants him to do.
