Full text of Tony Blair's statement on the London blasts. 08/07/2005. ABC News Online. Tony Blair sums up his attitude towards terrorists: It is particularly barbaric that this has happened on a day when people are meeting to try to help the problems of poverty in Africa and the long term problems of climate change and the environment ... It is important, however, that those engaged in terrorism realise that our determination to defend our values and our way of life is greater than their determination to cause death and destruction to innocent people in a desire impose extremism on the world. Although Blair didn't say it, many have observed that you cannot terrorise a nation which has already withstood decades of attacks; as well as surviving the Blitz in WWII.

It's interesting to compare this statement with Dubya's response to September 11, 2001; where he essentially came out and crowed "yeehaw, I'm formin' a posse and we's gonna kill us some towelheads". Blair has a brain and knows how to be a leader. Dubya.... is a moron.
