Blair: Iran meddling “furiously” in Iraq

British Prime Minister Tony Blair accused Iran on Wednesday of meddling “furiously” in Iraq and said that the ruling theocracy had a terrorist “ideology” at its heart.

Blair also hinted at an Iran-Al-Qaeda axis and said that for them, Britain and “democratic” countries were the enemy.

He was speaking to an audience in London in the first of three speeches on international issues.

“The different aspects of this terrorism are linked. The struggle against terrorism in Madrid or London or Paris is the same as the struggle against the terrorist acts of Hezbollah in Lebanon or the PIJ in Palestine or rejectionist groups in Iraq.

3. Guess that makes us all even then.

We've been 'meddling furiously' for three full years, and the Iraqis have got the dead children to prove it.

10. It is a done deal.

We are going to war with Iran and there is nothing, nothing any of us can do about it. We are butchers and no one has the guts to stop us. The only hope for the world is the complete economic and social collapse of this ugly US Empire. Of course, if that happens we’ll be in the shitter, but you have to admit, we brought it on ourselves…
