 | | If you happen to get dumped from your cabinet job and nobody listens to you because they've come to the accurate conclusion that you're a crank, you can always get a bunch of your friends and like-mineded loons together and pretend that you're Parliament. Can't you, Tony? |
Former British Minister Tony Benn criticized the unlimited US support to Israel, calling on the US to reconsider its policy vis-à-vis the Middle East.
| Lemme see, here. There's a reason he's a former minister, isn't there? |
"If the U.S. seriously reviews its Middle Eastern policy through building up right relations with Arab countries and recognizing the international legitimacy resolutions, particularly regarding the Palestinian cause, Israel will abide by the Will of peace based on justice, not occupation," Benn said in an interview with Syrian TV. Benn, who was elected an MP in Britain between 1951- 2001, criticized also British Prime Minister Tony Blair for accepting the US policies, particularly occupying Iraq, adding that the British people strongly oppose war on Iraq and sympathize with the Palestinian people. |
