Blair to take lead in Security Council drive against terror
Blair to take lead in Security Council drive against terror
By David Usborne in New York
Published: 13 September 2005

Tony Blair plans to take the lead at the United Nations tomorrow in pushing an important new anti-terror resolution through the Security Council which will oblige governments around the world to take action against anyone found guilty of inciting others to commit acts of terrorism.

Diplomats were confident that the British-sponsored text would be adopted by a special session of the Security Council to be held on the fringes of the UN Summit of more than 175 world leaders, which opens here tomorrow.

Its adoption is likely to be overshadowed, however, by the summit itself, which last night appeared to be heading towards confusion if not outright collapse.

The passing of the resolution will nevertheless be important to the British Government as it presses for tighter counter-terrorism action around the world. The British seat at the Security Council table will be taken by the Prime Minister. Several other leaders will join him, possibly including George Bush.

4. Tony is so noble. As a terrorist and war criminal himself, he is
willing to work against his own interests. What a man! :puke:
