He died today.
I will remember him for his hinesty regarding the Iraq war, and his courage to walk the walk as well as talk the talk.
He held no prisoners. Just spurted the truth exactly as he saw it.

sad to hear, one of the few MP's left with any respect intact. i somehow doubt any of the Labour bigwigs are bothered
The Lover is ever drunk with love;
He is free, he is mad,
He dances with ecstasy and delight.
Caught by our own thoughts,
We worry about every little thing,
But once we get drunk on that love,
Whatever will be, will be.

However he never claimed to be a muslim.
We must go by what we know.
In the end its what God wills that will happen.

You spelt his name wrong. It's Cook not Cooke.
Give him some respect.

Fixed.
Wasn't he the guy who did the Cook Report?
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
No. That was Roger Cook.

The death of Robin Cook was a shock to many. But for some strange reason some Muslims I’ve encountered believe his death is a conspiracy!
To continue, indeed in his latter stages (i.e. way after his maintenance of UN section over Iraq), he was a good man with good principles.
I respected him a lot when he resigned his prestigious post over the Iraq war unlike muslims like Khalid Mahmood. I think with all the hoo haa before the impending attack on Iraq every one more or less new the British government did not want go to war but because of America it had to (as its foreign interest was in stake).
For him if he did not know the Hujjah (proof) of Islam than truly his final test is with Allah, the King of the Day of Judgment.

I heard that he was killed because of his views on the Trident submarine.
I know it sounds silly.

He was a wonderful man. God bless him.
