Blair blames terror attacks
news.com.au ^ | 7th July 2005

Posted on 07/07/2005 4:29:02 AM PDT by naturalman1975

A SHAKEN British Prime Minister Tony Blair said today that London had been hit by a series of "barbaric" terrorist attacks. Mr Blair said he planned to leave a G8 summit of world leaders in Scotland shortly and return to London, but he said he would fly back to the Gleneagles meeting later on today.

"It's reasonably clear there have been a series of terrorist attacks," a sombre-looking Mr Blair said in his first comment in the wake of blasts which rocked London earlier today.

"Our determination to defend our values and our way of life is greater than their determination to cause death and destruction on innocent people to impose their extremist values on the civilised world," Mr Blair said.

I really hope the Britts follow the Americans, not the Spaniards.

Australia has taken Bali, and an attack on our embassy in Indonesia and has never wavered - and we are of British stock. Britain will not waver - count on it.

God speed Mr. Prime Minister. America stands firmly at Britain's side.

Coming from Blair, it is certain that the explosions were planned and not accidental.

How stupid of the terrorists. Attacking the US, (the world power everyone loves to hate) is one thing. Attacking the premier Western power which has a liberal leader does not make sense. If British public opinion was not fully behind the US/UK war-on-terror, they will be now. (Or else I have the Brits all wrong)

Well, no one ever said that the terrorists had any political savy.

.

Terrorism Expert MONSOOR IJAZ just said on FoX News that Terrorists did not hit London's financial district this time because it is too closed off for its own protection.

MONSOOR IJAZ was the broker of 3 deals with the Sudan during the 1990's to turn over our No. 1 terrorist enemy OSAMA bin LADEN to us on a Silver Platter, before he could hit us hard here at home like he already had abroad.

3 OSAMA Offers that the CLINTONS quickly refused.

The CLINTONS who were on the side of our terrorist enemy, Commumist North Vietnam Dictactor HO CHI MINH, and against us during the Vietnam War.

I pray for all the victims and their families.

I really hope the UK and America are now ready to deal militarily with Syria. They have failed to do anything to rid terrorist pouring out of their country.

In this atmosphere, tolerance for those G-8 protesters needs to be "0"...

...It was MONSOOR IJAZ who was on FoX News the very day after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 telling the American People that the previous attacks could have been stopped ahead of time...

...if only the CLINTONS had not refused the 3 Offers he had brokered with the Sudan during the 1990's to give us OSAMA bin LADEN.

...If only...

...RICK RESCORLA saw Tower 2 come crashing down on him after he had gotten almost everybody else outta there:
