"Blair's alliance with Bush Bombed"

[raysr]

by Robert Fisk
"If you bomb our cities," Osama bin Laden said in a recent videotape, "we will bomb yours."' It was clear Britain would be a target ever since British Prime Minister Tony Blair decided to join President Bush's "war on terror" and his invasion of Iraq. We had, as they say, been warned. The G-8 summit was obviously chosen, well in advance, as Attack Day.

1. Tony Blair has gotten nothing but fucked...

in this relationship. I just don't understand what it is he's getting out of it. Why is he so committed to *. I've been scratching my head because to the casual observer, there was nothing to gain - his people were never in favor of the war. I always respected him before Iraq and I'd really love to know what's going thru his mind.

3. Point well taken...

There's British oil lust as well.
