Never one for taking one step at a time, Blair - who appears to have failed to create peace in the Middle East, and whose ambitions to become President of Europe look unlikely to be fulfilled, now wants to spend the rest of his life (he's 55, father still alive, potentially long life ahead) 'uniting' the world's religions. For this he's launching a 'faith foundation' in New York on Friday. He wants it to do things like getting the faiths together to provide bed nets for malaria, that sort of thing. It's probably safer than asking them to provide condoms against AIDS.....
Is he looking for a sainthood? If so, who would he expect to provide it - the Pope, Islam, the Jewish community, the Dalai Lama?
That's three major ideas in less than a year. Wonder how long this interest will last...
I should not let him rattle me, should I? But he's a dangerous person to be near power.
