stopwar GB – Tony Blair: We should invade Syria

Tony Blair: We should invade Syria whether the British public wants it or not – Mr Blair reiterated his call for British military intervention in Syria, saying strong opposition to war among British voters did not „invalidate“ the need for action to prevent „terrible“ consequences.

„In my view, it doesn’t invalidate the necessity to intervene because what you’ve got to compare is the fact and the consequences of intervention with the fact and the consequences of non-intervention.

„Now, we have not intervened in Syria. The consequences are, in my view, terrible and will be a huge problem not just for the Middle East region but for us in the years to come.“ http://stopwar.org.uk/news/tony-blair-we-should-invade-syria-whether-the-british-public-wants-it-or-not#.U0NwmVft-Sp
