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."
