Where am I?
Have I somehow slipped through a wormhole and ended up in a paralell universe?
I just saw this on RTÉ
Blair warns Iran and Syria on extremism
WTF?
This is classic
Mr Blair said the international community should tell Syria and Iran that they should either play by the same rules as the rest of the world 'or be confronted'.
It seems that the ferret faced little Weasal (Blair that is) was making a speech to the World Affairs Coucil in LA and was asked afterward if NATO had a role in providing a multi-national force in the Lebanon (why not Israel? They ARE the aggressors after all) His reply?
He said it was too early to be clear what was most helpful for the situation.
Mr Blair added that whatever force was deployed should be capable of ensuring that the Lebanese people 'vote in a democracy without outside interference from Syria or anyone else and without inside interference from armed militias'.
He suggests that a country that is being attacked by belligerent and powerful foreign powers has no right to self-governance because a group takes up arms against the aggressors?
If this logic had been applied throughout history there would be no Britain, America, Ireland, you name it. A nation has the (inalienable) right to decide on its own governance.
This is another example of the continuing use of 'the big lie' by the Axis powers (US, UK, Israel) - the bigger the lie, the easier it is to swallow.
