Williams: Iraq War moves were "flawed." Criticizes "short-sighted" policies
Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams, conceding that he wonders whether he should have been more involved in the antiwar movement, in a radio interview attacked the decision by the U.S. and Britain to go to war in Iraq as having “moral and practical flaws.”
To a BBC interviewer December 29, Williams said, “I am wholly prepared to believe that those who made the decisions made them in good faith.” He added: “I think the moral and practical flaws have emerged as time has gone on—very painfully.”
