Londra, Tony Blair lascia Downing Street, sarà inviato di pace per il Medio Oriente
Blair ha fatto i primi accenni al suo futuro incarico di "diplomatico globale" per il Quartetto e la pace in Medio Oriente (per il quale riceverà circa 180 mila euro all'anno). L'unica soluzione, ha detto, per portare la pace in Medio Oriente è quella dei due Stati, uno israeliano e l'altro palestinese, che convivano fianco a fianco: "E' un'assoluta priorità" sfruttare il consenso internazionale su questo punto per arrivare a un accordo, ha spiegato.

cioè????? Blair inviato di pace in Medio Oriente?

I was in Europe earlier this week speaking with current and former officials, experts and diplomats about the situation in the Middle East, when the news broke of the appointment of former British Prime Minister Tony Blair as special envoy of the Quartet for Arab-Israeli peace-making. It is hard to know if this is was joke, an insult, or a positive new beginning. (...)
Blair's negatives in the Middle East are well known, and are not counter-balanced by his many successes at home or in Europe. His main problem is not only that he has been hypocritical or partial to Israel and the United States rather than truly even-handed; it is also that his policies have contributed directly and abundantly to the Arab-Israeli conflict and associated tensions in the Middle East that he is now going to try and resolve. Appointing Tony Blair as special envoy for Arab-Israeli peace is like appointing the Emperor Nero to be the chief fireman of Rome.
Blair has spoken for years about pushing for peace and two states in Palestine and Israel, yet he has repeatedly come down on the side of the Israelis in demanding that Israel's security should be guaranteed before any progress can occur. Last summer he declined many opportunities to condemn Israel's attacks against Lebanon, and instead went along with the US-driven policy of endorsing them. His speedy support of the Israeli-American boycott of Hamas after its election victory last year was impressive only for its unthinking haste.
