News has reached Prattle Towers (temporary Irish encampment) that Terry Jones has a scoop from Heaven itself—the Lord God Almighty is not pleased at Tony Blair's attempt to blame Him for the Iraq business.
A high-level leak has revealed that God isfuriousat Tony Blair's attempts to implicate him in the bombing of Iraq. Sources close to the archangel Gabriel report him as describing the Almighty ashopping mad ... with sanctimonious yet unscrupulous politicians claiming He would condone their bestial activities when He has no way of going public Himself, owing to the MMW agreement(a reference to the long-established Moving in Mysterious Ways concordat)...
If Tony Blair thinks his friendship with George W Bush is worth rubbing out a couple of hundred thousand Iraqi men, women and children, then that's something he can talk over with me later,said God.But when he starts publicly claiming that's the way I do the arithmetic too, it's time I put my foot down!It is well known that God has a very big foot.

Terry Jones is always amusing. I particularly liked the bit about god having a very big foot.

One can always rely on a comedian to put these things in order. Brilliant reply to Blair’s silly attitude.

Terry Jones has said some rather balmy things of late but when he is spot on he is brilliant.
What Blair thinking when he did his God'll judge me schtick?
