My husband died in vain
What one British widow will tell Mr Bush this week

President George Bush will be accused this week of lying about Iraq's
weapons of mass destruction in a face-to-face meeting with the
families of British soldiers killed in the war, The Independent on
Sunday can reveal.

Mr Bush announced last week he was prepared to meet a small group of
families of the British war dead. The names have not been officially
revealed but two of the invited families have come forward to talk
exclusively to the IoS, saying they will challenge the US President to
explain why he went to war without a United Nations mandate and why no
chemical and biological weapons have been found.

Lianne Seymour, whose husband, Commando Ian Seymour, was killed in a
helicopter crash at the outbreak of the war, welcomed the chance to
meet Mr Bush. But she dismissed his claim that the 53 Britons killed
so far in Iraq had died in a good cause. She said: "Bush has been
suggesting that he's going to put our minds at rest. He suggests our
husbands' lives weren't lost in vain. However, I'm going to challenge
him on it.
