Not exactly.

Former British PM Tony Blair’s take on the civil war in Syria and the
tenth anniversary of the invasion of Iraq.

Iraqis would have rebelled against Saddam Hussein if there had been no invasion and it would have been “a lot worse than Syria”.
Iraqis previously “rose up in large numbers and were killed in very large numbers”, the former UK PM said. Asked if he had regrets, he said: “How can you regret removing a monster who created enormous carnage.I certainly think that if Saddam had still been in power, it’s true there would have been, probably, an uprising
amongst his people,” he said.
“But I think it would look a lot more like Syria and probably a lot worse than Syria.”

 

Now that‘s spin.
