Whoops! Richard Perle admitted on wednesday that the invasion of Iraq was illegal. He was putting forward the 'international law would have stopped us taking out Saddam, therefore we had to ignore it' thesis, a justification which I'm going to use if at some point in the future I decide to go ram-raiding: "It's the Perle Doctrine officer. British law would have stopped me from stealing that hi-fi and TV/DVD with surround sound system, therefore I had to steal it."
