Who In Britain Is Calling For A Hundred Years' War?

May 3, 2010 (LPAC)—Ultimately, the decision of whether or not the British empire will instigate its stooge, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, to launch a military air strike against Iran's nuclear enrichment facilities, thereby triggering a Hundred Years' War, lies with the Queen, her Royal Consort, and a hardline faction in the City of London. This act is under consideration now, given the onrushing systemic collapse of the British imperial monetary system, as a way of ensuring that there is no opposition to this oligarchy's plans for a New Dark Age.

At the political echelon, there has been some support for this move. At least three senior Tory MPs (and the Tories are the closest of the political parties to the current right-wing Zionist government) had called for Israel to attack Iran before the Parliament was dissolved. For political reasons, Tory leader David Cameron has not said anything about Iran.

The Liberal Democrats, who were the only party that voted against the Iraq invasion, would oppose the idea.

The Labour Party is mixed. Prime Minister Gordon Brown called only for sanctions, which Foreign Secretary David Miliband (a "Blairite") has strongly campaigned for internationally.

But former Prime Minister Tony Blair has continually called for war. This is important, because Tony Blair, as Quartet Envoy for Mideast Peace, has become a close friend of Netanyahu, and he is one of the Queen's controllers over British puppet, Obama.

Here are some highlights from Blair's pro-war statements:

* In his Jan. 29, 2010, testimony to the Iraq Inquiry (chaired by Sir John Chilcot), Blair makes about 20 long references to Iran and the need to deal with it. Asked about the postwar planning, and why at least 100,000 Iraqi civilians died in strife after the invasion, Blair said that this and the Sunni/Shi'ite sectarian violence that arose was due to the unexpected, coordinated intervention of Iran and Al-Qaeda working together "to sabotage" and "destabilize" the coalition plans. In the beginning of his testimony, he referenced his April 1999 Chicago speech on changing world governance, which called for an end to the Treaty of Westphalia system and for "regime change" of "dictatorships" in possession of WMD or with links to terrorism. He placed Iran very high on the list of terrorist-linked regimes seeking WMD that needed the Iraq treatment. "The reason why I take, and still take, a very hard line on Iran and nuclear weapons is not just because of nuclear proliferation, it is because the nature of the Iranian regime makes me even more worried about the prospect of them with a nuclear device."

* At the Chicago Council of Global Affairs on April 24, 2009, on the tenth anniversary of his "Doctrine of the International Community" speech (referenced above), Blair stated: "The struggle faced by the world... is posed by an extreme and misguided form of Islam. And there are elements in the leadership of a major country, namely Iran, that can support and succor its practitioners... [We must] expose, too, the delusion of believing that there is any alternative to waging this struggle to its conclusion. It is time to wrench ourselves out of this state of denial." This is a war which is "akin to fighting revolutionary communism... We have to fight where we are being fought against... Where we are called to fight, we have to do it."

* On March 23, 2010, Blair and "Bibi" Netanyahu addressed the American-Israeli Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC). Blair said: "we are not the only external actors in this drama [of Middle East peace]... Iran has a role also; and it is not for peace. ... They are clear in what they seek. We should also be clear. Iran must not be allowed to acquire nuclear weapons capability. They must know that we will do whatever it takes to stop them getting it. The danger is if they suspect for a moment we might allow such a thing .... This is not simply an issue of Israel's security. This is a matter of global security, mine, yours, all of us. Iran's regime is the biggest destabilizing influence in the region. Israel understands that."

It is not just the political echelon and above that is contemplating war against Iran in Britain. The neo-con Henry Jackson Society wrote LPAC: "We subscribe to the view that, for a number of reasons, Iran poses the greatest international security threat in the world at present, with its nuclear program being a particular problem... I am certain that Israel will only act ... once all other options have been exhausted and its sources believe that a nuclear threshold will be crossed soon. Therefore in many ways, an Israeli action is dependent on the international community. We can stop it if we are prepared to get 'serious' about Iran, If we are not, and shirk our own duties, then we should not be surprised if others act."
