lol As if West doesn't have a hand in what is happening in the ME and the wider region. Height of the most shameful hypocrisy. Tony like maniacs probably want to police the rest the world eternally and also the cosmos beyond our planet.

His wife's sister is a Muslim.

His wife's sister is a Muslim.

Being Muslim is one thing and being Islamist or Radical Muslim or Political Muslim is another thing.

Besides sister and brother are two different persons each with its own personality and likes dislikes.

Blair is a known liar on scale unknown in modern history, recall the Iraq war. No one believes a single word he utters.

My theory on him is that those hands in neoconservative pockets and in the background of designing that disaster war had something on Tony Blair. For years he had been likened to an English Bill Clinton in his style of governance and mannerisms - meaning he still did bad things abroad but he sort of kept them quiet and focused instead of marching off into multiple stupid conflicts

All of a sudden he threw his lot in with a known coke head from Texas and destroyed his reputation at home and abroad?

The vigor with which he backed that venture was an odd thing to watch. It was apparent to all that were watching his speeches that he was having a hard time selling the war to even those in his own party... it was almost as if he didn't believe himself when talking.

Then of course there is also the known lack of oversight his government had on the Saudi Kings making various military purchases - so his government's empowerment of Maliki also doesn't make much sense.

I wonder if he had some affair or some hidden scandal that was being held over him. The U turn transition to stupidity from his prior governing style made everyone wonder.
