Blair: “Weapons of Mass Destruction Claims Were an April Fools Joke” - April 1st 2004
Prime Minister Tony Blair has today disclosed that the claims regarding Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq have just been part of a long, protracted April Fools joke.
“We certainly fool a lot of people with that prank didn’t we?” Tony Blair chuckled during a press interview, “I mean the press believed us and published the stories, Saddam believed us and denied having weapons of mass destruction – but possibly the funniest part was our armed forces believing us and going ahead with the joke invasion.
“That was just priceless. I mean, I didn’t expect them to go through with the whole dropping bombs thing. I have to say I thought they’d figure out when they couldn’t find any evidence.”
People have criticised Mr Blair’s claims, explaining that the reason that those fooled did not suspect Mr Blair was pulling an April Fools joke was because it did not take place on April 1st.
This had led people to suspect that Mr Blairs claim of an April Fools joke is in itself an April Fools joke.
“A double April Fools joke?” Michael Howard sneered, “I definitely wouldn’t try a trick like that if I was in office.”
