Blair vs. UK/US - Egypt Crisis

Guardian: Reports the following on the different perspectives between Tony Blair and the present leaders in the US and UK when it comes to the Egyptian Coup , " Taking a different approach to both President Obama and William Hague, who have expressed reservations over the military takeover  ".

Lets Get Real:

One can argue from a left wing view that you either trust democracy OR NOT, if your from the right you always support the Government that supports your political interest in a region, thus the US supported right wing military dictators in its backyard and looked the other way when they removed threats without a trial, it what had to be done to keep the Communists from taking power, it was nasty and bloody folks, and normally course of events you would be appalled at such actions, but they were your SOBs, thus you supported them, the left of course went bonkers, it is nice to see that TB has gone further to the dark side from the view of the left, from the right he 100% right, one wonders if you had told the TB of 1997 that he would be so RIGHT WING, would he have thrown you out of No 10.   Power can corrupt folks, but it also shows you the real world, you have to get your hands dirty in a political sense, even accept the death of thousands, if at the end of the day your are protecting democracy or the interests of Western democracy for the long term.  Life is a B*tch folks, then you grow up, and become right wing.
