But on the other hand if Blair can successfully defend himself in the face of these attacks/accusations it'll most likely end up strengthening his position politically.

The gassing and killing of Kurds isn't a UK issue, after-all they didn't supply the chemical weapons (that'd been the US)... however there has been some mention of the Oil for Food scandal - as some contributers to the Labour Party have been implicated.

PS> You might be interested to note that asylum seekers from Darfur where protesting outside of 10 Downing Street asking for more UK support of the peacekeeping efforts in Sudan.
What do you mean by the Queen?
