What's up with Blair lately?
He's playing to his Muslim base, unfortunately.
Re Tony Blair. He's doing a little pandering while in California, but his speech during joint press conference with President Bush last Friday was brilliant.

Sample: "But then, as the President was saying a moment or two ago, we've then got to realize what has happened in the past few weeks is not an isolated incident. It is part of a bigger picture. Now, I'm going to say some more things about this in the days to come, but we really will never understand how we deal with this situation unless we understand that there is a big picture out in the Middle East, which is about reactionary and terrorist groups trying to stop what the vast majority of people in the Middle East want, which is progress towards democracy, liberty, human rights, the same as the rest of us.
Now, that's the battle that's going on. And, yes, it is always very difficult when something like this happens, as it has happened over the past few weeks. So we've got to resolve the immediate situation, but we shouldn't be in any doubt at all, that will be a temporary respite unless we put in place the longer-term framework."
But read all his comments.
This is for the EU... and Blair (whom I pray is playing along to keep himself and other countries attacked), if need be:
