I also regard Bliar's post war/post PM UN appointment of Middle East Peace Envoy as one of the most bizarre and insulting moves I've ever witnessed and I'm sure that millions of other British citizens viewed that appointment in the same critical manner - absolutely disgraceful and proved again that it's good to have 'friends in high places' for Bliar to continue 'feathering his nest' and building up his elaborate business/property empire! 
I've no doubt it was one of Blair's ambitions to become a 'wartime PM' with a 'war' attached to the megalomaniac's political CV. The only problem is it wasn't justified, he was proved to be a liar, the majority of the protesting UK populace were proved absolutely right and 'slaughtered him' for such a crass deception of the true facts + it destroyed whatever decent a reputation he had left!
