How amusing. Tony Blair, Uk Prime Minister for another day, is seriously proposed as an international envoy to broker peace in the Middle East. The BBC reports that there's currently a special meeting discussing his future role, involving the UK, US, Russia, EU, and UN. Ominously absent are those whose trust he would need to broker anything, namely the folks fighting each other. No doubt it will help a great deal that he's likely to convert to Catholicism after he leaves office, seeing that the people continuing the carnage in the Middle East are Muslim and Jews.
