You really can’t make this stuff up: Tony Blair will now teach religion at Yale. So says the Guardian, and the great and good in New Haven confirm it: Blair to teach at Yale University.
Yale’s president, Professor Richard Levin, says the co-perpetrator of the war on aggression against Iraq, which has resulted in the deaths of at least a million innocent people (and counting), will be teaching Yale students “how religious values can be channeled toward reconciliation rather than polarisation.”
At least a million deaths? How can you link to this crap, Susie? It erodes your credibility.
Two British studies have each estimated one million. And of course, over 2 million driven out of their homes and out of Iraq. The American public doesn’t want to face what our country has wrought..
As Dan Ackroyd said, “What the American people don’t know is what makes them the American people.”
I see Yale has renewed its membership in the international “Shoot Yourself in the Foot Club.” So has Wendy Whinner.
Raoul:
At least one of your beloved studies (done by Lancet) has been thoroughly discredited. And btw it was funded by that American-hating George Soros- a fact that Lancet failed to disclose.
Lastly, ask yourself this: if the million was true, that would mean 1 out of every 25 Iraquis was killed! Do you really really believe that?
The latest study has it at “only” about a quarter million. So that’s so much more humane:

Sorry Wendy, that ‘American hating Soros’ crap destroys YOUR credibility for my money. Even taking Susie’s lower figure of 250,000 would be 1 in 100. Still sound far-fetched to you? Of course, we are not counting the wounded and permanently maimed, which could easily be 5 times the fatality figure. It is a horror by any measure.
Yes, let us argue over the kerning, while the jawdropping irony of Blair’s appointment remains undiscussed…

Oh, so that’s why her mouth is so bloody.
