Waging war requires analysis, not just an act of faith - Campbell

11.30.00pm GMT Fri 3rd Mar 2006

Responding to the Prime Minister's comments in his interview with Michael Parkinson, Sir Menzies Campbell MP, Leader of the Liberal Democrats, said "Going to war isn't just an act of faith; it requires rigorous analysis of the legality of doing so, the likelihood of success, the number of possible casualties, and the long term consequences.

Sir Menzies concluded by saying "My complaint of the Prime Minister is that, while he may have believed what he was doing was right, the prospectus for military action was flawed."
