Very eloquently put, HP.
The 'reductio ad absurdam' of Tony's rhetoric is Tomahawks over Kilburn and Dublin. One could almost respect him more if he preached appeasement of Muslim fundamentalism - at least he would then sound consistent. As it is, Tony's oratory is like hearing a Churchill wartime speech read out by Neville Chamberlain.
