It is indeed remarkable to understand that the Qu'ran is progressive.

Certainly British society is being reformed lately.

These words may be prophetical. I can only say I share Tony's fears.

He added that under the guidance of the Qur’an, the spread of Islam and its dominance over previously Christian or pagan lands was "breathtaking".

Altough Blair is using an euphemism and tries to speak 'politically correct', we have to admit that he's right.

You have taught us the same story in other words...

Nice selection of quotes. The problem with Blair isn't that he has no iintellectual capability, as you have only to see him debate in Parliment to see he's no idiot; rather its that he has no conviction. He's the worst kind of politician because he tries to please everyone. This is impossible, you have to stand for something. That doesn't mean you have to close your mind to everything else and surround yourself with sycophantic yes-men, but you have to have at least enough backbone to call a spade a spade.
I'm amazed that Blair can even stand upright, lacking as he does any spine at all. He is, truly, a yapping poodle.
