Tony Blair criticizes Occupy Wall Street

Slightly old article but I wanted to post it here because I think it illustrates what a monumental tool Tony Blair is -after a decade of pandering to Bush and Cheney, he's still pandering to the right wing.

Tony Blair Criticizes Occupy Wall Street
This morning, roughly 12 miles from where thousands of Occupy Oakland protestors took to the streets former Prime Minister Tony Blair was questioning the entire Occupy Wall Street movement.

At Charles Schwab‘s conference for financial advisors today in San Francisco the former prime minister was asked about the recent protests that are centered around inequality and Wall Street’s desire of putting profits before public interest.

“What I learned in my time as prime minister is that those that shout loudest don’t necessarily need to be heard the most,” Blair told an audience of roughly 4,000.
<snip?

No, of course not Tony, those who deserve to be heard the most are neo-cons and oil magnates who beat the drums of war and sell out the people you are meant to be representing as the Leader of the Labour Party. That became clearly evident when you were Prime Minister

<snip>
But Blair, who was the keynote speaker at this year’s Schwab conference for its independent investment advisors, says those types of protests won’t necessarily result in substantive change. He said his problem with “the Occupy Wall Street thing” is that “a protest is not the same as a policy. Someone who’s demonstrating will often make demands, but they don’t necessarily have answers.”

Yes, of course you had all the answers when you and Dubya devised the policy of invading Iraq on a false pretext. That's why it turned into such the monumnetal quagmire it did

Go Cheney yourself, Tony. You should be in jail for war crimes

17. War criminals' opinions are of no importance whatsoever.

The fact that he has the nerve to appear in public considering how the world feels about him, shows how far removed he is from reality.

Hopefully one day all of them will be arrested and tried for the crimes they committed against humanity. It took 40 years in some South American countries so there is still hope.
