Tony Blair begins lecturing role

BBC News 20 September 2008

Tony Blair has taught his first seminar of the "faith and globalisation" course he will lead at Yale University.

During the seminar, he said that religious faith inspired some people to do harm but it also had the potential to do great things in the modern world.

The course will explore the public roles of religious faiths in the context of globalisation.

In May Mr Blair launched a faith foundation to tackle poverty, challenge conflict and unite world religions.

Nervous

During the seminar, Mr Blair said: I genuinely believe that the issue to do with faith and globalisation is the single-most determining issue of the 21st century.

"Faith is important because it motivates people...to do harm. But it also has the potential to do good."

In an interview with the university's Yale Daily News, Mr Blair admitted to being nervous about the job.

"I was never a star student, and I'm coming along mixing with a whole lot of people who I'm sure are a whole lot more clever and smarter than I am," he said.

According to the university, hundreds of students applied for places on the course.

However, Yale University president Richard Levin said Mr Blair's arrival on campus had also met with controversy.

He told BBC News: "As is the case in Britain, a lot of young people are opposed to the Iraq war and so I think there are some students that would consider that a serious problem.

"But I also think our students are very excited about having the former prime minister of the United Kingdom here as a figure on campus," he added.

Mr Blair said he was partly drawn to Yale after his son Euan graduated from there earlier this year with a master's degree in international relations.

Mr Blair has also taken up lucrative jobs as an advisor to an international bank and an insurance company.

His other commitments include being the United Nations special envoy on Middle East peace and a campaigner on climate change and African poverty.

UK Lockdown point of view
Arch Traitor and war criminal Tony Blair is in no postion to lecture anybody, by now it should be clear where UK Lockdown stands on the issue of Blair and his role in the Zionist planned destruction of our country so there is no need to repeat the long list of criminal actions committed under his mis-leadership; its also no suprise to see that Blair is now working at an International Bank & Insurance Company that be his reward for loyal service to the global Zionist crime network and betraying his country keeping in mind that all the international banks are either run by Zionists or agents who work on their behalf Blair must feel at home with all the Zionist parasites he has been serving so faithfully during his time in power.
