In an interview published in Time Magazine this week the traitor and war criminal Tony Blair tells of how his faith in God helped him make the really tough decisions that leaders sometimes have to make, like the decision to lie through his teeth to sell an illegal war to parliament because supporting the invasion of Iraq would further his personal ambitions.
Some of you may be wondering what can possibly be hard about deciding to condemn thousands of people to death simply to gain personal advantage but we will skip that question for now and talk about Blair’s Faith Foundation which he is launching “to build bridges between the world’s religious faiths. What purpose will these bridges serve you might well ask. Well a future Coalition Of The Willing might find them handy when invading axis of evil nations that are bordered by big rivers.
Mr. Blair says he wants to spend the rest of his life building bridges. We just don’t know how he will find time between picking up a few million pounds a year from lucrative speaking engagements, earning £500,000 as a consultant for J.P. Morgan, and dodging bullets and IEDs as Middle East peace envoy.
So will he really be building inter-faith bridges or is it just a cynical attempt to get more gigs in the American Bible Belt and the Islamic world as nobody else gives a shit.
You can make up your own minds based on the evidence, but to save you a bit of time, the evidence suggests all those one-on-ones with God have not taught Tony Blair a thing about honesty and integrity.
