Wednesday at the World Economic Forum, former United Kingdom Prime Minister Tony Blair was asked if the Iraq War was a contributing factor to radical Islamic terrorism he pointed out France did not support the Iraq war and was still attacked.

Blair said, “This extremism has grown up over a long time, over decades, it’s roots are deep within the perversion of a religion the perversion of Islam.”

“At some point we have got to deal with the root problem, which is educating people from a close minded view of the world, if  you’re not like me you’re my enemy. We got to stop making excuses for those people,” he added.

Does it really matter? He is speaking the truth now!
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

Labour.
Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

Labour.

Hmm. Someone on the left speaking truth about Islam?

I have a favorable impression of PM Blair from the Iraq years. Would love to hear how Blair's seen at home now from EC's prospective. If you got an inclination, mate.

Tony's always been a stalwart when it comes to understanding Islam and the danger of Islamic terrorism.

That's made him a pretty much hated entity by his fellow leftists.

More and more of the Left are starting to come around to the truth of Islam. There are too many people in the world, especially Leftists, who think of Islam as just another benign religion, like Christianity or Judaism, or Hindu, et al.
 
They are slowly starting to realize that Muslims are not what the majority of the world would call 'normal'. They are obsessed with death and will kill anyone, anyone at all, their family, their neighbors, Muslims, Infidels, children, old women, anyone, for any reason. They consider intelligence, reason, and mercy, to weaknesses, and a sin.
 
It is refreashing that the Left are catching on to what these people are all about. And I am seeing it much more than ever before lately, with Boko Haram killing everyone they can reach, and the cold blooded murders in Paris.
 
They will do the same thing here in America eventually, as they do all over the world. Wherever there are Muslims all over the world, there is murder, rape, and death. This is the calling card of Islam.
 
The only thing they are waiting for, is to get more soldiers and a better foothold first. Then they will let loose violence on America from the mosque, which are, in their eyes, similar to a military base. They do it everywhere else. They will do it here when they are ready.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

Compared to Margaret Thatcher, Tony Blair is left.  Compared to the left, including the current American president, Tony Blair is a centrist.

Always amused seeing PM Blair and President Bush at a presser. The different styles. Gary Cooper verses Noel Coward.

Nice parallel. 

I LIKE it!

Blair seems to be an honest Centrist. Maybe I'm reading him wrong, it could be the accent, but he doesn't seem to be playing the center for political points but genuine wanting to do what he thinks is right.  Kind of the Zell Miller of the Labour Party. I would buy him a pint.

I'm curious of EC's take on Blair.

Blair is a tremendous speaker, no notes, perfectly formed sentences, no hesitations or ummms.
