Rasheed and All:

Britain's Prime Minister can hardly be considered ignorant or fanatically
militant. Here is his view as reported in the London Times:

"Tony Blair gave warning yesterday of nuclear strikes from the next
generation of terrorists as he made plain that the war against terrorism
could be extended to the states that harboured them.

"The Prime Minister and Jack Straw, the Foreign Secretary, said that
the world would be laying itself open to biological, chemical and
nuclear attack if it failed to counter the menace of terrorism now.

"As both Houses of Parliament united behind the Government's
readiness to join a military response to Tuesday's outrages, Mr. Blair
said that the action being prepared might change the present world
order. In a clear warning to countries such as Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan
and Libya, he said that those who harboured or helped terrorists had a
choice: either they could cease their protection of the West's enemies,
or they would be treated as an enemy themselves."
