Mick Jagger has criticised Tony Blair over the decision to go to war with Iraq.
The rock legend, who is said to be idolised by the Prime Minister, told a Spanish magazine, "It makes me angry that Blair already knew that arms of mass destruction were simply an excuse and had nothing planned for the day after."
He added, "In Iraq, you have three irreconcilable groups - the Shiites, the Sunnies and the Kurds. Either you establish a very well thought-out system of confederation, or something will break. Only now is the United States discovering the reality of Iraq."
