John Prescott has admitted the Iraq war may have been illegal and warned that Tony Blair�s call for regime change in Iran and Syria is �absolutely bloody crazy�.
As a series of Al Qaeda-linked car bombs and suicide blasts in Baghdad marked the tenth anniversary of the US-led invasion, the Labour peer, who served as deputy prime minister at the time of the war, said he now fears the invasion was legally wrong.
He told CNN International�s Amanpour programme that while �shock and awe may have got rid of Saddam ... it certainly never brought peace�.
