"Allah be praised. It is wonderful to know that a great politician like Mr. Blair reads the QURAN. Soon he will convert to the side of the TRUTH. It is like a domino effect.......He did not choose to read the VEDAS or any other so called religious book. And also the Bible did not give him the REAL TRUTH therefore he choose our HOLY QURAN. Why are the rest of the non-believers waiting. What more prove do you people want.

Sorry to burst your bubble of self delusion Mr. Ahmed.

Tony Blair is a consummate politician. He has also adopted the role of a Middle Eastern peace envoy (best of luck, Tony.) He sees the obvious truth that this is the one area of the globe that could set off an absolute tragedy for humanity - primarilly due to the ancient hatreds involved between the warring parties.

Of course he's going to read the Koran - because he HAS to - to get an insight into why Islamists are so pig headed and intransigent in their attitudes, why they hate Jews and everyone else so much etc etc.

It would be like if that other former British PM, Neville Chamberlain had been reading Mein Kampf to get an idea on Hitler's mentality. If he had done that - he wouldn't have accepted Hitler's words of peace so readilyand WW2 would have been more protracted than it actually was.

He's adopting a policy of 'know your (potential) enemy'.

"ISLAM will WIN hands down. I urge you to return to the right path before its late."

The real 'Allah' will show us Islam is not the 'right path' but an unlit path.
