Surely you're not talking about the two leaders who committed large military forces to taking on militant Islam. You couldn't possibly be talking about them.
I most certainly am.
Both of them consider Islam a religion of peace and bend over backwards not to confront the fact that the terrorists are religiously motivated. Blair seems to be more clueless than Bush on that subject. Besides the religion of peace nonsense and the religion was hijacked cunard, Blair thinks it is about grievances also.
The thorough misunderstanding of fundamental Muslims is why we had such a difficult time after winning the war and disposing of Saddam and his sons. People at the highest levels of Govt in decision making rolls had no idea of the difference between an Shiite and a Sunni Muslim. They seemed to think of it as a Catholic Protestant thing.
For us, from day one (9-11) this has been a religiously driven terrorist war by fundamental Muslims. It has been going on for 1400 years and only recently have we got involved. - tom
