Unrepentant Tony Blair Calls for Iran Attacks (http://news.antiwar.com/2010/09/01/unrepentant-tony-blair-calls-for-iran-attacks/)
Back in the public eye with the release of his memoirs, former British Prime Minister Tony Blair might lead one to believe it is 2003 all over again. Praising George W. Bush as a great leader and one of the most decisive men he had ever met, Blair also lauds the Iraq War.
So great a success in fact that he seems eager to replicate it with a similar war against Iran on similarly false pretenses. How similar? Blair actually cites 9/11 and accuses Iran of “developing nuclear weapons†before concluding that there is “no alternative†to a military attack on them.
