Bush aides 'double-crossed' Blair
Mr Wilson disputes that Iraq was acquiring nuclear weapon material
The ex-US diplomat at the heart of the political crisis in the White House says Tony Blair was "double-crossed" on the reasons for going to war with Iraq.
Joseph Wilson said he believed the Mr Blair had thought he was getting involved with a "disarmament campaign".
But "he was double crossed by the regime change crowd in Washington" and ultimately had "no choice" but to go along with a regime change war.
Mr Wilson told BBC Radio 4 the White House had "hyped the nuclear case".

After a whole collection of evidence over the last few years it is obvious that Bush "hyped" up the case to go to war with Iraq.
