My Life on this planet.

Unfortunately, what was to be expected happened again: another terrorist attack on a newspaper, now in France, because some madmen felt they were insulted by cartoons published in a French newspaper. I say 'again' because in the past years there were already attacks on other news agencies such as in Denmark , all for the same reason that cartoons were published that show the Prophet Muhammad and try to ridicule him and thus a whole religion because, as Muhammad was the founder of Islam, ridicule him equals ridicule Islam equals ridicule its believers and their believes . And don't forget, the extremists from other religions are the worse to ridicule people of other religions although some atheists are also good in making fun of others. I have no right to insult, only a right to inform and discuss things in a polite manner It is very sad innocent people died such as the (Muslim) policeman and others during two attacks the next day. I also feel sad journalists we...

Although I never recognised Tony Blair as a real socialist but more as someone in the middle, he is starting to move too far in the wrong direction because of his worship of the powerful. Ones he saw the ugly head of wealth and power, he started to change and as long as he refuses to acknowledge this he can no t correct himself and may move further in that direction, away from the people who ones admired him. If only he stopped praising those who bankrupted the world and oppress others. Indeed, one can be happy for people who are successful in life but not for people who make 'mistakes' and continue making these 'mistakes' because they benefit from their 'errors' and aren't punished for making them, while they refuse to accept they should change their own behaviour instead of always blaming others who have much less and demand others behave well such as paying taxes or they should be punished. And his job as adviser for what others call dictators is quite ...

During his final years as PM, the 'war-on-terror' started (and still continues) whereby the attacks in New York and Washington were game-changers. Before this tragedy, there were interventions in wars such as in Kosovo and Sierra Leone that were celebrated by many but now PM Blair felt the need to start war to liberate people and remove dictators whereby there was the impression lies were told to justify war and to be important and this changed the mood of the people towards him. He also started to believe that police should be able to detain people for up to 90 days without charge while I think politicians should be able to trust judges so they can see evidence and can determine the length that people are locked up. Even torture was started to be used and although I understand this evolution as politicians tried to protect the general public after the attacks on the USA (09/11/2001) but also Madrid (11/03/2004 in which 191 people died) and London (07/07/2005 in which 52 peo...

Mr Tony Blair , such an imposing figure. Just over twenty years ago he rose to power and became one of the most celebrated politicians in the UK, that is until the Iraq war destroyed his legacy for many people. Here, I list what I remember that were his important achievements but also his present work and why I think people no longer like him and how he could response by becoming a low-key but still important figure. However, some defend his good policies . The past and his achievements After becoming New Labour leader, Tony Blair won three elections and for a good reason: he had good ideas and came after a long period with the Tories in power (and their time in power was so disastrous that even after more than a decade in opposition they still didn't manage to regain a majority and had to form a coalition government). Only because someone wanted his job, PM Blair had to stop being the elected British PM (although maybe there was a secret deal that needed to be honoured)...
