Blair needed to lay down the ground for his plan to use the depraved racists of Israel to be unleashed on defensless muslim people. He had a problem. the EU recognised the right of muslim people in the vicinity of Israel to defend themselves against Israeli terrorism.

The problem was solved by appointing one of the four zionist neocons that keeps around himself at all time (Levy, Mandelson, Goldsmith, and Straw) to Foreign Secretary. Straw was tasked with having the EU declare all significant resistance groups within the surrounding areas around Israel decared terrorist by the EU.

The first concrete result of Straw's action was the banning of various muslim media services within the EU (mostly broadcast by satellite). The first significant result came when the Palestinians, in free elections, elected Hamas into power, and Straw's new rules were used to prepare the occupied territories for Israeli genocide. When the world sat back, and allowed the Jack Straw created destruction and murder within Gaza to continue unimpeded, Blair was able to assume that the time was right to risk taking advantage of Straw's work with the groups in Lebanon.

Blair's people assume you have the memories of a goldfish, and the willingness to do research of a first-year social-sciences student.

'Jack Straw' isn't even a real name, merely a political MASK-NAME like Stalin or Lenin. However, do you think ANYONE would take seriously the psyop that this zionist championed muslim causes with his real name Jacob Stravinski. Muslims in UK politics are (for the most part) out of luck in hoping that people won't know or constantly think about THEIR religious or ethnic backgrounds. But then, I can't think of any muslim politician in the UK that has protected their drug dealing son, and child abusing brother from real punishment, like Straw did for his.

So again, if Straw hadn't done his job perfectly, Blair wouldn't have his holocaust of Gaza and Lebanon today.

because I was with the original poster right up until the point when Jack Straw was referred to as an 'alternative' to Tony Blair.

But Twilight, didn't Straw grass his own son up to the cops when his drug issues were made public? What a family man he is...

I personally have no support for Straw or Nu-Labour but in the present situation he is the only senior member of Nu-Labour who spoke up and said the Israeli response is disproportionate and maybe if I had thought it through more Walter Wolfgang is the man for the job
