Blair: “…come in to the international community and play by the same rules as the rest of us; or be confronted.”The rules being? Invade a country for oil and depose it’s leader?
Bless his puppet figures cotton socks.
The new world order of dictatorism.

Blair: “arc of extremism”Afghanistan (under Taliban), Iran (under Saddam Hussein), Iraq, Syria – What would you call it? A chain of cuddly fluffy bunnies?
Blair’s speech was visionary and I agree with his view that so many people are blind to the reality of the situation and are in denial of the threats that exist against us. Even 7/7 didn’t pull everybody’s heads out of the sand, so it seems.
People ‘buy half way’, as he said, into the fact that we brought about the bad things that are going on now but I think it all goes back to Ayatollah Khomeni and the Iranian revolution of 1979. Why? Because that demonstrated the power of radical islam. Wahabbi Sunnis realised that what their rival Shias could do in Iran, the much more numerous Sunnis could do worldwide. That’s what’s led to the likes of of Al Qaeda.
Sorry, a typographical error! I know Saddam had ambitions to take over part of Iran but…
More a case of minding n’s and q’s than p’s and q’s. If Iraq splits up, like some now forecast, bags name one of the bits Irap!
We should have faced up to them after the Fatwah on Salman Rushdie. :twisted:

Before that, even. The world should have intervened to prevent the Ayatollah Khomeni’s lot gaining power in Iran in 1979. It could have been done then but we can’t turn the clock back. Come to think of it, that’s exactly what Khomeni did do!
