Quoted on BBC News former world leader said "It is important that the actual things we are trying to do here, the initiatives we are taking, should get as much publicity as what demonstrators are prepared to do in order to get TV pictures," said British Prime Minister Tony Blair.
He urged people to remember that it was the leaders, not the protestors, who had been democratically elected.(<25%)


The BBC's Barney Mason says the death has darkened the mood of the summit and has reawoken questions about whether such meetings can go on being held inside a virtual fortress amid serious violence.

These leader were NOT democratically elected, Blair got elected on the votes of less than a quarter of the UK polpulation, Bush stole his presidential office by deceit and Berlusconi is a media magnate, the richest man in Italy and the Mafia Godfather. These people are illegal, they created world poverty and Aids, and now they plan to use it as a tool to embezzel more money. They are murderes and liars, their henchemen are SS thugs and they can't hide in Maedieval fortresses forever.

Truly
