Tony Blair Continues Down Road to Dhimmitude

Former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair converted to Catholicism after his stint as Britain's leader, so why does he read the Qur'an every day? Is it to understand what fuels the hatred of our Islamic militant enemies? Uh, not so much. It's to make sure he remains 'faith-literate.' Blair's sister-in-law converted to Islam some time ago so the two now share something else in common. Can you imagine this admission coming out of the mouth of the likes of Sir Winston Churchill? No word in the Daily Mail article about how much time Blair spends reading the Catholic Bible.

Via the Daily Mail:

In an interview with the Observer magazine, published yesterday he said: ‘To be faith-literate is crucial in a globalised world, I believe.

‘I read the Qur’an [Koran] every day. Partly to understand some of the things happening in the world, but mainly just because it is immensely instructive.’

Mr Blair believes that a knowledge of the faith informs his current role as Middle East envoy for the Quartet of the United Nations, United States, European Union and Russia.

The former PM’s work, which has cost British taxpayers more than £2million, aims to help resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.Mr Blair has previously praised the Muslim faith as ‘beautiful’ and said the Prophet Mohammed had been ‘an enormously civilizing force’.

In 2006 he said the Koran was a ‘reforming book, it is inclusive. It extols science and knowledge and abhors superstition. It is practical and way ahead of its time in attitudes to marriage, women and governance’.

But Mr Blair has also faced the devastation wreaked by violent jihadists who interpret the Koran as a call to arms.

Courageous leaders in western civilization are in short supply these days. When cowardice reaches the point of willfully selling out your country, there's usually another term applied to it.

WOW: TONY BLAIR ASSUMES CONVOLUTED POSITION

Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair is officially championing a view that is incoherent. This is what happens when you double down on something as absurd as climategate. As a result of the CRU emails being exposed, Blair has apparently decided that he must concede that the science of man-made global warming is not proven. However, in the same breath, he says the movement to cut back on energy should continue forward.

The TELEGRAPH reported:

Following the ‘climategate scandal’, Mr Blair said the science may not be “as certain as its proponents allege”.

But he said the world should act as a precaution against floods, droughts and mass extinction caused by climate change, in fact it would be “grossly irresponsible” not to.

By calibrating his position like this, Blair is exposing himself as someone willing to perpetuate an agenda based on an unproven set of premises and he is apparently willing to do it at the peril of his own country, which is a developed nation that would have to cut back on its emissions in order to help poorer nations.

What does this reality say about Blair? Does it say he's willing to sell out his country? If he truly believed the world was in trouble as a direct result of man-made global warming and was willing to lead his nation in the "sacrifice" of cutting back on emissions, wouldn't he be using the occasion of climategate to get angry at those who have been perpetuating the fraudulent science?

Instead, he is still siding with them and in doing so, is aligning with a global organization (UN) against his own country. By taking this position on climategate, Blair has portrayed himself in a potentially treasonous light. Blair is quoted as saying:

“It is said that the science around climate change is not as certain as its proponents allege. It doesn’t need to be. What is beyond debate, however, is that there is a huge amount of scientific support for the view that the climate is changing and as a result of human activity.”

Based on what? Where is this "huge amount of scientific support"? If Blair wasn't part of this fraud, wouldn't he be outraged at its being exposed?

Despicable, Tony Blair. Despicable.
