Blair's Conversion
Blair claimed that 9/11 changed the world. It did not. It was the response to 9/11, his response, that changed it. The launching of the “war on terror” threatens to change the course of human progress and history. The “war on terror” has ushered in a state of perpetual war, indefinite detention, mass killings and destruction, all of which would have been difficult to imagine at the outset of the new millenium.
The military might of several dozen nations is pitched against a few hundred “terrorists”. Thousands of innocent lives are being lost in the most horrific ways imaginable, and millions displaced. And the only winners in sight seem to be the 'masters of war', the makers of arms and mayhem, and their political servants.
