British RhetIraq: P.M. John Major
Who: John Major (former British Prime Minister)
Source: Independent UK
Quotes:
"I think what has happened is not that the Iraq war and other policies created that threat, I think it was there and growing, though it was not in full bloom.
"I think it is possibly true that it has made it more potent and more immediate, but having said that, there is absolutely no doubt that we were going to have to confront terrorism at some time. And what I suppose you might say about the events of the Middle East is that they have brought it forward and brought it into focus."
