...but whatever you do, don't listen to this prick

Blair has now basically accused moderate Muslims and, implicitly, anyone who opposes US, British or Israeli foreign policy, of aiding terrorism. He says that you cannot fight terrorists by sympathizing with or attempting to understand their aims, all of which, he claims, are based on "false grievances" with the West.
Blair should note that there is a massive gap between approving of or sympathising with certain views held by people who kill innocents and approving of the killing of innocents. We may agree with someone who hates council tax but if he went and blew up the town hall we'd be rightly horrified. He should also note that such things as "sympathy" and "agreement" are covered by freedom of speech, thought and belief; something he claims to be defending. He should realise, and I can't believe that he doesn't, that accusing moderate British Muslims of hampering the fight against terrorism is not likely to improve their ever-chilling relationship with the government.
He should stop assuming that he can dictate to people what is right and what is wrong in clear opposition to the facts, he should step the fuck down as PM and settle down into his cushy job with the Carlyle group where, thankfully, we won't have to listen to him any more.

This propaganda is right out of the Bushivek playbook.
