Tony Blair, the war criminal of Iraq, Afghanistan and the Middle East and former prime minister of the UK, was awarded last night Sept. 13 2010 the “Liberty Medal” at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia by the famous protagonist of many sex scandals in the White House, former President Bill Clinton. the chair of the NCC joined thw president while awarding the disgraceful Bliar in ignorance of the scene of last week when he was pelted with shoes, eggs, and beer bottles during the signing of his miserable first book in Ireland, after he left millions of widows orphans behind him in Iraq. The “medal of freedom” is supposedly given to people in recognition of their effort for peace, NOT for war crimes, genocide, crimes against humanity, corruption and thievery.
