TONY BLAIR: IRAQ WAR A MISTAKE BUT I WILL NOT ADMIT IT

That's not what he said on Fareed Zakaria's show but it is a reasonable conclusion:
"I can say that I apologize for the fact that the intelligence we received was wrong because, even though he had used chemical weapons extensively against his own people, against others, the program in the form that we thought it was did not exist in the way that we thought," Blair said in an exclusive interview on CNN's Fareed Zakaria GPS that airs Sunday.

Blair told Zakaria that besides the flawed Iraq intelligence, he also apologizes "for some of the mistakes in planning and, certainly, our mistake in our understanding of what would happen once you removed the regime."

There was no "planning" which could avoided a multi-pronged insurgency and Blair is either lying or incompetent or both.
I would go with lying since he is quite aware the intelligence was cherrypicked to suit the
already chosen war.
