I don't destroy liberties, I protect them
The Observer has published a series of articles on our disappearing freedoms. Here the prime minister defends his government's record
Tony Blair

The Observer
There is a charge, crafted by parts of the right wing and now taken up by parts of the left, that New Labour is authoritarian, in particular, that I am. We are intent on savaging British liberties, locking up those who dissent and we abhor parliamentary or other accountability.
The reason right wingers are keen on this is clear. New Labour has eschewed traditional forms of leftist statism. So the type of claim they used to make about the Attlee or Wilson governments they can't plausibly make about us. Have we become indifferent to liberty? At one level, the charge is easy to debunk. But on another level, there is a serious debate about the nature of liberty in the modern world. I accept the good faith of our critics. I just believe them to be profoundly mistaken.

Blair can do whatever he wishes now...there is no-one to stop him

Blair's Gestapo forces intercepted them on arrival at Luton airport, and detained them under "anti-terrorism" laws. They were then subject to appalling abuse at the hands of Blair's New Reich goons. Blair had previously ensured a 'lock-down' of the UK press, to ensure that the story reached as few people as possible while still current. Coverage of the story ONLY appeared in the press after it had simmered on the internet for days, and a continued lack of Mass Media interest would seem too suspicious. 'Too little too late' is a standard control strategy in Blair's Mass Media.
Blair is not just the worst monster our island has ever produced, but is now so powerful that he no longer cares to hide the fact. Blair's New Reich party PROUDLY displays its intimate links with the most repulsive right-wing regimes, the most recent examples being the revelation that one of his ministers was the 'fixer' for Silvio Belusconi, the hyper-corrupt new 'Mussolini' of italian politics, and the press releases announcing the partnership between Blair's jewish warlord, Straw, and Bush's new house slave warlord (after Colin Powell was fatally damaged by his UN appearance) Rice.
Hitler's actions in the 1930's (including the use of new laws) were designed to lay the ground for the aftermath of his invasion of Poland. Blair's actions are to the self same end, in so far as they are designed to lay the ground for the aftermath of his genocide of Iran, and the European/US invasion of the Middle East in order to secure the oil production facilities there. In both cases, the immediate military action was/is intended to mark the beginning of a much larger, and vastly more destructive war.
BLAIR IS BRITAIN'S HITLER- the one mind on Earth determined to be the intellectual power behind the THIRD WORLD WAR. His actions in Britain are designed to secure his powerbase, and also to set an example to the world, and in this he parallels Hitler to perfection. Blair's advantage over Hitler lies, ironically, in the fact that Blair's military power exists as proxy forces, so far mostly the army of the United States, and soon to include the armies of the West European nations. Blair doesn't have to raise his own army (that way lies disaster, if the numbers game is against you, as the nazis discovered), but is free to be the controlling mind of the military power of other aligned nations. He simply has to make certain actions seem inevitable when the right circumstances are manipulated into existence.
The world's worst serial killers suceed because of the naive arrogance of those that might have stopped them. People look at these ultra-evil humans, and see a pathetic package of flesh and mannerisms. Acknowledging the danger of such a person is, perversely, seen as acknowledging their strength, and too many males are far to 'macho' to ever allow themselves to do that. There is a very good reason why the most powerful humans almost never look like Hollywoods view of 'alpha' males.
REMEMBER, Blair today is vastly more powerful than he has ever been. If you woke up one morning, a few weeks/months from now, to hear Blair declaring that he had just nuked Iran with US assistance, and that he was arranging a total lock-down of the UK to avoid muslim 'terrorism' reprisal strikes, none of you would be suprised in the least, or expect Blair to stand ANY chance of losing power because of it. If the following weeks bought conscription, and the creation of a European army to secure the life-blood of Western prosperity, the oil fields of the Middle East, near enough every one of you would find this unfortunate, but necessary. How did Hitler get the German people to the point where they were crazy enough to back him, come what may- I think the citizens of the UK could answer that question with ease today.

I fear that twilight is correct about there being no-one to stop Blair (or his government if he goes). The media wll not, which is not their purpose anyway, it is to report on the current events. The anti-war movement (although I consider myself to have been a part of it) I am afraid to say has failed to stop this bloody war. The New Labour party has not even tried to stop him. None of the other parties will do it either. I don't believe Blair is attempting to start a third world war, but this is becoming more of a danger - by accident or rather by the stupidity of the current leaders of the world, for not taking the threat seriously. The current leaders continue sabre rattling towards their enemies (currently with Iran) which will endanger provoking them to pursue a nuclear course which in time will have dire consequences for us all. These leaders are not even pursuing nuclear disarmament and as a result we all have to live in fear which is really terrorism.
