Oh the conceit of our wonderful leaders.

Yet again I am amazed at the conceit of our Leaders. In this article where Jack Straw is criticising the way the UK is dealing with the affair in the Middle East. Not the one we started the other one with Israel and Lebanon.

There is a statement there where Tony Blair's spokesman says the PM wants to retain influence as he concentrates on solving the problems in Lebanon.

How absolutely wonderful. What planet is he living on? He has not successfully brokered peace in Northern Ireland, he has not successfully done anything in Afghanistan and Iraq. He is making threatening noises towards Iran and Syria. Yet he wants to concentrate on solving the problems in Lebanon. Obviously Bush will give him a pat on the head for implying that the West is looking at doing something but solving the problem may be a teensy weensy bit out of Blair's reach.

Although it does now sound like more of the Labour party are evolving a backbone. Must be the radiation from the papers on Nuclear Weapons and Nuclear Reactors. Read more here. I'm also getting a different feeling from Jack Straw since he was replaced at the FCO. Maybe I will reconsider having him tried for war crimes and executed when I take over the country. It seems to have made Blair change his tune on the conflict, although they did say give it a week or so and that is now up. So it could be the time is right according to Bush's plan.
