Some BS there from Blair

On Sunday, Blair was quoted as saying that Arab pro-democracy could complicate peace efforts between Israel and the Palestinians, saying that it "is a great thing that people are wanting democracy, but in the short term there is reduced stability in the region so that can pose problems for Israel and the peace process."

It is the Israeli occupation which is impeding peace and democracy," Erekat was quoted by the Ma'an news agency as saying, adding that the Palestinian side remains committed to all international guidelines and terms of the Quartet's roadmap for peace.

Tony Blair's time as the Quartet envoy is overdue; anyway it was disgraceful and outrageous to get him involved in the Peace Process from the beginning after he had lied and invaded two countries that did not pose a threat against his country, and showed allegiance to Israel.

    I am sure you are here to just manipulate and misrepresent the real facts. The UN gave Israel only 50% of land with requirement of no displacement of people. The wronged both the promises. Occupy more than 90% of the land and made almost 10 millin people refugees.
