Tony Blair: Iran extremism like rise of 1930s fascism

So who is BUSH - Mother Teresa??

By Helen Nugent

Islamist extremism is similar to “rising fascism in the 1920s and 1930s”, Tony Blair said last night in his first major speech since leaving office.

At a prestigious charity dinner in New York, the former Prime Minister said that public figures who blamed the rise of fundamentalism on the policies of the West were “mistaken”.

He told the audience, which included New York governor Eliot Spitzer and mayor Michael Bloomberg, that Iran was the biggest exporter of the ideology, and that the Islamic republic was prepared to “back and finance terror” to support it.

“Out there in the Middle East, we’ve seen… the ideology driving this extremism and terror is not exhausted. On the contrary it believes it can and will exhaust us first,” he said.

“Analogies with the past are never properly accurate, and analogies especially with the rising fascism can be easily misleading but, in pure chronology, I sometimes wonder if we’re not in the 1920s or 1930s again.

“This ideology now has a state, Iran, that is prepared to back and finance terror in the pursuit of destabilising countries whose people wish to live in peace.”

He added: “There is a tendency even now, even in some of our own circles, to believe that they are as they are because we have provoked them and if we left them alone they would leave us alone.

“I fear this is mistaken. They have no intention of leaving us alone.

“They have made their choice and leave us with only one to make - to be forced into retreat or to exhibit even greater determination and belief in standing up for our values than they do in standing up for their’s.”

Mr Blair, who represents the Quartet of the US, Europe, Russia and the United Nations on the Middle East, was speaking at the 62nd annual Alfred E Smith Memorial Foundation dinner at the Waldorf Astoria hotel.

Mr Blair went on: “I said straight after the attack of September 2001 that this was not an attack on America but on all of us. That Britain’s duty was to be shoulder to shoulder with you in confronting it. I meant it then and I mean it now.”

He added: “America and Europe should not be divided, we should stand up together.

“The values we share are as vital and true and, above all, needed today as they have been at any time in the last 100 years.”

Mr Blair received three standing ovations during the evening.

Earlier, the former Prime Minister said: “Out of this region the Middle East has been exported a deadly ideology based on a perversion of the proper faith of Islam but nonetheless articulated with demonic skill playing on the fears and grievances of Muslims everywhere.

“It did not originate from the dispute between Israelis and Palestinians, of course, far from it. But this dispute is used to great effect as a means of dividing people, sowing seeds of hatred and sectarianism.

“The impact of this global ideology is now no longer felt simply in the terrorism that afflicts Lebanon or Iran or Palestine. It is there also now in Pakistan, Afghanistan, in India, of course in Europe, in Madrid and London, and in the series of failed attempts to create terror across our continent.

“And here in New York you felt it in the thousands who died and who still mourn their lost ones.”

On several occasions the dinner chairman said he would have liked to see Mr Blair run for US president in 2008.

Referring to the Middle East, Mr Blair said: “The challenge is global, therefore our response must be global.

“Either the argument will be as our enemies want it framed as Islam versus the west. Or it will be as we want it framed as moderates of whatever faith, colour or race against extremism however it manifests itself.”

The dinner, which raises millions of pounds for hospitals, nursing homes and charitable agencies, is held in honour of Al Smith, the former governor of New York who was the first Catholic to be nominated by a major political party to run for US president.

Although unsuccessful, many historians believe the presidential bid paved the way for the candidacy of President John F Kennedy.

Tory B Liar, the ex-Prime Monster of Great Britain, comes back to haunt us with even more unfounded racism towards Persians.

Quote:Islamist extremism is similar to “rising fascism in the 1920s and 1930s”, Tony Blair said last night in his first major speech since leaving office.

Lies. The west unfounded aggression towards the middle east is fascism. Ahem, not "similar to" fascism - IT IS FASCISM. Along with all the hate speech spewed by Bush and the general media in the west telling us Persians are the next big threat.

Quote:At a prestigious charity dinner in New York, the former Prime Minister said that public figures who blamed the rise of fundamentalism on the policies of the West were “mistaken”.

Lies. The world can see the wests aggression towards the middle east and how the middle east hasn't even come within a thousand miles of either the UK or USA mainland, or bombed us, or anything. Its there for all to see.

Quote:He told the audience, which included New York governor Eliot Spitzer and mayor Michael Bloomberg, that Iran was the biggest exporter of the ideology, and that the Islamic republic was prepared to “back and finance terror” to support it.

STOP RIGHT THERE!

"Funding terrorism" is what the west has done for the last 60 years. The CIA gave Osama Bin Laden $3 Billion and even TRAINED HIM. Donald Rumsfeld (US) and David Mellor (UK) met Saddam Hussein in 1983 TO SELL HIM BIOLOGICAL WEAPONS.

What exactly is Tory B Liar's evidence to suggest Iran is the biggest exporter of an evil ideology?

What a fucking retard. We sell weapons to terrorists for 60+ years and then Bliar claims (just claims without evidence) that Persians are the bogey men? And I guess we are expected to believe it too huh?

Quote:“Out there in the Middle East, we’ve seen… the ideology driving this extremism and terror is not exhausted. On the contrary it believes it can and will exhaust us first,” he said.

The UK and USA is terrorizing Iraq right fucking now you DICK!

Where do these guys get off being this openly racist?

Quote:“Analogies with the past are never properly accurate, and analogies especially with the rising fascism can be easily misleading but, in pure chronology, I sometimes wonder if we’re not in the 1920s or 1930s again.

Yeah me too Mr Bliar, me too. <_<

But its not because of Iranians thats for certain.

Quote:“This ideology now has a state, Iran, that is prepared to back and finance terror in the pursuit of destabilising countries whose people wish to live in peace.”

Oh really, what about the ideology that now has a state, Israel, that is prepared to use countries like the US by proxy to invade places like Iraq and Iran and finance terror in the pursuit of destabilising countries whose people wish to live in peace? Look at what Israel did to the Lebanon - wiped the entire fucking country out, just wiped it out.

Quote:He added: “There is a tendency even now, even in some of our own circles, to believe that they are as they are because we have provoked them and if we left them alone they would leave us alone.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiight... and now he is going to tell us Persians are somehow more evil than any other race! HE IS BEING A RACIST FASCIST RIGHT IN FRONT OF ALL OUR EYES AND ACTUALLY HAS THE FUCKING AUDACITY TO STILL CLAIM ITS IRANIANS THAT ARE THE NAZI'S!!!!!!! I can't even believe this shit.

Quote:“I fear this is mistaken. They have no intention of leaving us alone.

But Mr Bliar, WE have never left THEM alone, you see how that works?

Problem is, WE started it in the first Gulf War - check your history you silly fucker and stop trying to pull this shit all the time.

Quote:“They have made their choice and leave us with only one to make - to be forced into retreat or to exhibit even greater determination and belief in standing up for our values than they do in standing up for their’s.”

Get to fuck. If we do attack Iran then we will be attacking them in THEIR own country and you expect us to go along with the bullshit that if they fight back (defending their own country from foreign troops invading them) they are somehow terrorists?

Quote:Mr Blair went on: “I said straight after the attack of September 2001 that this was not an attack on America but on all of us. That Britain’s duty was to be shoulder to shoulder with you in confronting it. I meant it then and I mean it now.”

Confront Larry Silverstein then. Ask him about pulling building seven, eight hours after the first plane hit the forst tower and how its not even possible to rig a 47 storey building in that time.

I am not going through any more of this lying racist bullshit.

Can you believe I live in England and would never vote Conservative over Labour! Its true.

oh Brilliant :pissed:the probable coming king - i mean president, of europe stepping up the rhetoric on the ONLY country in the middle east that could actually facilitate the healing process between islam and christianity/secularism. You know that Bliar knows that the population of Iran is generally considered to have the highest proportion of people sympathetic to western secular ideals of any islamic nation. As if sanctions weren't enough now the twat starts in full throttle with demonisation process. what a satanic lackey he is.
drop dead Tony, a place is being kept warm for you.

I don't know but I'm getting really fucking sick of it. And I'm tired of the all out worship of Jews. Worship. If you're a Jew & that offends you (not you but the people reading this) I'm sorry but it's the truth. I don't hate Jews I just think it's not that unreasonable of a concept to suggest that Jewish people are inherently equal to all people & not superior, including Arabs! Anyone who disagrees with this is sick!

Well to steal a well known phrase "I am not tooting my own horn" (toot toot!) lol, but... I think this is a great way to expose these crooks... by doing what I keep saying, when Tory B Liar, or Gordon Brown, or Dubya are at a conference stirring their couldren of hate speech against Persians... please god, please just let ONE person say this:

"Sir, why are you continually racist towards Persians?"

OR

"Sir, why do you always single out one specific race, namely Persians?"

That right there makes them look like a racist Nazi and they have NO answer to this, no fucking answer!

Spewing more of their garbage wouldn't be an answer... it is a completely direct question that no garbage spewing can cover up.
