Hundreds of thousands of people have signed an online petition calling for the removal of knighthood from Tony Blair. The former UK prime minister “should be held accountable for war crimes” instead, it says.
More than 400,000 signatures were left under a Change.org petition urging the UK prime minister to ask the queen to rescind the order in less than a day after it was launched.
Angus Scott, the author of the petition, says the former prime minister “caused irreparable damage to the constitution of the United Kingdom and to the very fabric of the nation’s society,” while he was in power between 1997 and 2007.
The petition specifically accuses Blair of “causing the death of countless innocent, civilian lives and servicemen” by dragging the UK into “various conflicts.”
“For this alone he should be held accountable for war crimes,” it says.
Blair absolutely is a war criminal.
When he was prime minister he helped fake intelligence to drag the UK into the Iraq war.
Meanwhile, Julian Assange who has exposed war crimes and other evils has been in a British prison for almost a decade.
This yet again shows how ridiculous and evil this entire system is. The more evil your deeds, the more honors you will get from the system. On the other hand, people who try to do the right thing are crucified by it.
