Tony Blair, President of Europe?Posted on Oct 7, 2009
If all goes according to plan, the European Union will soon have a new honcho, and it looks as if the former British prime minister is the front-runner. But the bloom is definitely off the rose, Tony Blair having been such a Bush lappie during the Iraq war. Even in view of the former PM’s pro-war stance, Europe’s conservatives are the ones miffed at the idea of Blair possibly becoming the “president of Europe.” —PS

Now the other shoe drops & Bush 3, the warmonger, get
a peace prize instead of a firing squad or a rope.
The cabal is determined to humanize Bush 3 to
facilitate its NEW WORLD ORDER:ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT.
This certainly shows the reach of the evil tentacles.

While it’s refreshing to see so many trumpets blare @
Tony Blair, let’s not lose sight of the fact that “W”
wasn’t the first miscreant to steal elections, &
won’t
be the last. As the cabal continues to gain strength
the charade of an election will be done away with.
Look
at the reappointment of Bernanke who gave the cabal
$trillions with arrogance & impunity. How much more
blatant than that can Bush 3 be?

Who are the fools that could have suggested Tony blair as President of Europe? Let’s not forget that the UK is mostly “eurosceptic”, was not a “founding member” and does not belong to the “Euro” group. Quite apart from the fact that he beat the drum for US wars and lied to his own people, why is it that a Brit should fill the role? There are far more deserving Europeans than Blair to take on this role; persons who have shown over the years a commitment to uphold human rights, international laws and the courage to act for Europe, not be mouthpieces for US interests.

As a European I can assure you that there is NO public support in Europe for Tony Blair as president. Britain’s political landscape is full of eurosceptics and Blair was no exception in this respect. I dare bet that Mr. Blair will never get the post!

BUGGER BLAIR AND ALL HIS WORKS

> blair belongs in the dock as a war criminal (along with a few others). europeans cannot be so silly as to hand over the title of POE (no matter how symbolic it is) to tony blair…or can they?
Agree.
Were it to occur, it would simultaneously be a stake in the heart of the European project. Because it would prove absolutely that every ‘No’ Vote argument against the new EU onstitution had been _absolutely_correct_.
No representation. No democracy. Decisions taken by an unaccountable, unelected cabal.
With luck, half the countries would leave forthwith. Which is why the Neocons—or whoever controlled Tony Blair’s strings, and ‘fixed’ his election and ‘New Labour’—are probably behind this little wheeze.
‘Margaret Thatcher’s greatest achievement - New Labour and Tony Blair’ and now we know why - because it was Margaret Thatcher’s policies continued.
Was Tony Blair a US/UK intelligence conspiracy?
Was Harold Wilson’s exit as PM a US/UK intelligence conspiracy?

The idea of Blair being the first President of Europe? Do we now realize how lucky we were that our first President was George Washington and not one of the many stuffed shirts that surrounded him? If he becomes the President of Europe, all of Europe will pay his retirement, one way for England to save money. I suppose.

TONY BLAIR’S FUTURE
The only thing Blair has to look forward to is a long drop on a short rope.
Just like some other genocidal murderers from history - Nuremberg Executions of Nazi
Leaders for ‘Crimes Against Humanity’ and ‘Crimes Against the Laws of War -

England is the financial capitol of the world.
The Rothschilds control it.
Tony Blair’s appointment will coincide with the
recolonization of America.
