Ariel Sharon: His Sabra and Shatila Legacy
As Israel buried Ariel Sharon amid eulogies from world figures, Tony Blair, a Butcher of Baghdad, paid a tribute to the Butcher of Beirut which included the line that Sharon “didn’t think of peace as a dreamer, but did dream of peace.” Also that “…he sought peace with the same iron determination” as he had fought (read slaughtered) across the Middle East. Re-writing history does not come more blatant, but Blair was ever good at fantasy, think “weapons of mass destruction” and “forty five minutes.”
