Title: Tony Blair denies pitch to be Trump's Middle East envoy Post by: Kemarit on March 05, 2017, 01:44:09 PM The denial comes after the Mail on Sunday reported that the former British prime minister met the president's son-in-law and key adviser, Jared Kushner, at the White House last week.
The paper claims the meetings were to discuss working for Mr Trump. Mr Blair's office said the story was an "invention" and that he continues to work for peace "in a private capacity". After he left Downing Street in 2007, Mr Blair took the role of Middle East envoy for the Quartet Group, made up of the European Union, US, Russia and United Nations. His spokesman said: "Mr Blair has made no such 'pitch' to be the president's Middle East envoy. Another example of media creating a false news. http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-39171814 (http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-39171814) Title: Re: Tony Blair denies pitch to be Trump's Middle East envoy Post by: ValeryBark on March 05, 2017, 02:06:24 PM After Trump made a blockade of all Muslims to enter America, I don't know who will agree to represent its interests in the middle East. It looks like a suicide. You think Tony Blair so stupid?

Gosh I don't get people like you who are just going to say that the ban on 7 countries from entering the U.S. are places of constant warfare and a zones of terror that they'd like to improve the vetting process of coming into the US. It's not a muslim ban, it's a TEMPORARY BAN on these countries which is used to further protect the security of the citizens of the United States. Plus, if Trump really wanted to ban a Muslim majority nations he could've went forth and showed that by banning countries such as Indonesia, Turkey, Bangladesh and so on which all show above an 85% Muslim population within their country. The difference here is that these countries aren't terror prone / war-zones so they aren't being targeted in a ban BECAUSE the ban really isn't against Muslims.
