tony blair joins me now. welcome.hat day, and the few days after, what was the dominant thing in your mind after that horrible event took place? >> to keep our people safe. this was an event where just in the recent weeks as people have gone back over it again, they've seen the footage and some sense of the immensity of the tragedy and the shock, the trauma of it has come across, i think. but for us in positions of leadership, this was obviously a devastating attack and we thought there could be further attacks. we needed to prepare our countries. the world had stopped, effectively. everything was dominated by this and nothing else. >> and did it also, do you think, bring the world face to face with this phenomenon of radical islam that many experts had paid attention to, and there had been terrorist attacks before in kenya and tanzania, but this was, it seems to me, the first time the whole world said, oh my god, there is a force out there. what was your thinking about it then? >> exactly that. i watched various terr

morgan and blair. that's actually what happened with j. p. morgan and the consortium of other banks did. in fact pro pop the whole iraq economy to the tune of about 2 and a half 1000000000. not 20000000000 other bit nervous that day. then 6 months after he left office, blair from a signed by a j. p. morgan for $5000000.00 every year. i was just trying to enlighten the public that there was corruption involved and not just bad decision making. i'd like to find out how this gentleman managed to access the court. there must be a back door in because they don't go to the t at the time and there was a court room directly underneath the court room. the player was in and it was left on not. so i went through that run up to so as far the fosgate i'm in to the, to the door that called itself, by this time my heart was pounding like, you know, it's really going mad. and i actually lost my courage for the moment i went and sat down in a low and a bathroom. i found the toilet that i did actually ring my mother and said, listen, i'm here. what should i do

and that is a help of— heyday of tony blair and that is a help of a — heyday of tony blair and that on towns — help of a decline. the labour focus is on towns. that is the background and been _ is on towns. that is the background and been a — is on towns. that is the background and been a resident lost the last election— and been a resident lost the last election and it needs to reclaim because — election and it needs to reclaim because labour is dominant in the bil because labour is dominant in the big cities— because labour is dominant in the big cities that does not give enough of a power— big cities that does not give enough of a power base to win in elections ithink— of a power base to win in elections i think the — of a power base to win in elections i think the priority is the towns and not — i think the priority is the towns and not rural areas. we are about to id and not rural areas. we are about to go into— and not rural areas. we are about to go into absolutely crucial labour conference and if kiersten does not make _ conference and if kiersten does not make his _ confere

it turned out that many of these alms deals had been forced through by tony blair personally, he's a dedicated arm salesman with every was a dispute ever in government. he was, the onset of the serious fraud office, got to the brink of uncovering the secret swiss bank accounts by which b a was funnelling, money to the saudi royal family. the swiss said we're going to notify the bank account holders band are flew to london, a bless swung into action. ah, he ordered the series for august that closed down their investigation. prince bandar fits if the investigation continued, they would withdraw national security co operation which would lead in the words of prince bandar to black on the streets of london. the story when been banging away at the more than 5 years, suddenly everybody woke up to it because everybody could see was a huge cover up scandal. the spectacle of british prime minister closing down to criminal investigation, present reasons. were you aware that your governor was approving payments to a friend of president bush's as part of a british aerospace is kicked back system

so he left office blair from a signed by a j. p. morgan for $5000000.00 every year. i was just trying to enlighten the public. there was corruption involved and not just bad decision making. i'd like to find out how this gentleman managed to access the court. there must be a back door in because they don't go out for tea a time. and there was a court directly underneath the court room, the play was in and it was left on not. so i went through that run up 2 floors by the fosgate and then to the, to the door that called itself. by this time my heart was pounding like, you know, really going mad. and i actually lost my courage. for the moment i went and sat down in a low in the bathroom. i found the gens toilet, but i did not. she ring my mother and said, listen, i'm here, what should i do you think i should still go in? my mom said, yeah, go and you will get another chance that say, i mean the augustine said that hope as to beautiful daughters anger and courage, anger the way things are encourage to see that they don't remain the way they are either way, really the way

we have the guest book firm blair house, which is on the page that angela merkel sign and then we have the condolence book, which is turned to. barack and michelle obama and then we also have the program. and from the service and we have the us senate condolence book, which is turned to. mitch mcconnell's signature we have a photo montage of throughout his life. of course. the early life they were married young. he was just baby when they got married and so we have a montage of photos from their life from his career. here at the library. and some photos a nice photo from tomball texas as the up 4141 traveled from houston up here to the library and carried the body with it and then a section of the railroad track. that was cut out by up. but that's a section that the train actually. went over and then one of my favorite cartoons there's this is one of a series of two and mrs. bush died. there was a cartoon of mrs. bush going to heaven and being greed by her daughter. and then when president bush died about six months or eight months later ramsey mcdonald or marshall ramsey. sorry cartoo

and tony blair, making some state my way. it is a man get his hotspur is the wrong word. whereas where does he get his arrogance from that that the power in the world that is bearing down on us again, just like it was 20 years ago. are all these bad islamic people? nothing to do with us? and when you, when you look back on what blair said at the time of, at the time of the invasion of afghanistan, this is a moment to seize. he said, following 911, the kaleidoscope has been shaken. the pieces are in flux. soon they will settle again before they do. let us order reorder this world around us. for me, that is one of the clear a staples of an imperialist, and other words will go into a country, will blow it all up, will change it all around, will undermine its culture, pellets people and will make it a better place when i put that to the former chief, the defense staff here, and ministry of defense. i got one of those rare interviews a few years ago with the, with, as he then was sir david richards general. so david, richard, i put this to him and i actually quoted to him the

did use safe and he's thinking his personality, his history to just political relations with tony blair or with new liberals. several islam was very close to many african leaders. he was very close to our leaders. he had, he visited many countries around the world. he tried to establish peace between libya and the west. but even now he gave an interview to the new york times, not going underground. i believe because he wanted to send particular messages to particular foreign power has unsent house power in the west. this is down to him. he is a man of his own. he has his own philosophy, but she is loved by the vast majority of the people. his respected by even those who had differences with him in the past because they saw what he did and 2011 they. so how he still speaks of libya would love how he wants to find genuine solutions to the country's problems. and they see how he refuses to be controlled by foreign powers, something that no other i repeat, no, as a political figure and libya has done so. so it is, i think safe it is the future of libya, not as a person, not just because he

tony blair here in london, he was fated here in london, a great friend of neoliberalism. why should the why should the libyan people trust someone closely associated with neo liberalism, multinational corporations as he had he changed and become more of a socialist? i've seen you can never did use as he's thinking his berson either to his history, to just political relations with tony blair or with new liberals. civil islam was very close to many african leaders. he was very close to r a bleed or is he, he visited many countries around the world. he tried to establish peace between libya and the west. but even now he gave an interview to the new york times, not going underground. i believe because he wanted to send particular messages to particular foreign power and sentence power in the west. this is, you know, down to him. he's a man of his own. he has his own philosophy, but she's separate as is loved by the vast majority of the people he's respected. but even those who had differences with him in the past because they saw what he did and 2011 they. so how he still spe

officially he said have rebuked angela rayner, that is what the report said, but if you remember, tony blairrried about this, especially as it has diverted elise some attention from some of the rather more significant and larger problems he has going on at labour party conference.— has going on at labour party conference. . , . ~ ., , ., conference. yeah, dick there was a -unch conference. yeah, dick there was a unch u- conference. yeah, dick there was a punch up involved _ conference. yeah, dick there was a punch up involved as _ conference. yeah, dick there was a punch up involved as well - conference. yeah, dick there was a punch up involved as well as some | punch up involved as well as some point, wasn't there? again, that was shrugged off. i want to turn to the front page of the guardian. just double checking of got that? i am auoin to double checking of got that? i am going to find _ double checking of got that? i am going to find it. _ double checking of got that? i am going to find it. i _ double checking of got that? i am going to find it. i am _ double checking of got that? i am g

war, dick cheney is the former c, e o of one of the companies making money from the war. bush and blair didn't invade afghanistan for the sake of women's rights or democracy, stop white washing their imperialist crimes. they started the war and tara, based on lies. did the nation build? no, did counter terrorism work? no. was the taliban defeated? no. did western corporations make lots of money? yes. the telephone is back in power. even including people who are portraits. one dynamo, baby, and we're back to square one except lots of people died and suffered. and so this idea that you can fight terrorism and impose democracy on others by invading them is a lie which falls flat on its face. when confronted with the fact that terrorism and deaths from terrorism increased after 2001, this either indicates extreme malice, or at best, enormous incompetence and abject failure, and other weight. no one should have ever invaded afghanistan. and just because the war and i've got to stand has ended, does not mean the war on terror has the war machine isn't going anywhere. richard med hearst and i

2000, when people say gas, dan is going to become a terror hub, which is all it gets back then tony blair said ok that was destroyed one month after the invasion. literally, we had destroyed virtually all the terrorist training camps of al qaeda. we destroyed an enormous amount of the military infrastructure of the taliban. their power, as far as the existence completely taken out, so of america's war on terror was supposed to beat terrorism. why are there more suicide attacks and more people dying from terrorism? since 2001? just look and how the number of deaths keeps rising and rising and rising. if america lost 3000 people on 911 again, austin has had multiple 9 eleven's since the invasion. and just like the people in new york city had nothing to do with america's foreign policy. neither do the people of gaston have anything to do with al qaeda at all. in fact, the hijackers were mostly from saudi arabia, even brought their passports to prove it. another development on saturday, new york officials revealed at a news conference here in the city that hijackers passport was found blocks

even tony blair, who became his economic advisor, and the foreign french -- former french minister whoelped him win the presidential election, people closed their eyes. they said let's give him a chance. unfortunately, when i met him at the african union, he literally wanted to fight with me physically. alpha conde has become a crazy person. host: i see your point. you don't turn overnight from being a political leader, and opposition leader, to a dictator. do you see them being a key player, particularly in the mining sector? kwesi: the primary challenge is that we didn't know him anymore. several african leaders are chameleons. they have the narrative, the discourse, the language of the rule of law and the respect for human rights. i think alpha conde has demonstrated this and several african leaders have, they get the necessary tools of oppression so the dissent is destroyed and it undermines institutions. for example in guinea, people would be agreeable to behaving in a similar -- it would be disagreeable for people to behave in a similar manner in their countries. but they have tr
