The Prime Minister paid dearly for sending troops to join what many Britons called "Bush's war." Blair, shown outside his children's room at 10 Downing Street, had to watch hordes march past the residence in protest. His reply? "People say you are doing this because the Americans are telling you to do it. I keep telling them it's worse ... I believe in it." When Saddam was captured, Blair called it a "time for celebration but also a time ... to unify."
