The Medal of Freedom, which is the highest civil award in the US, is presented to individuals who have made “an especially meritorious contribution to the security or national interests of the United States, or world peace . . .“
Yesterday, US President George W Bush awarded the Medal of Freedom to ex- british Prime Minister, Tony Blair.
‘especially meritorious contribution to . . . world peace’ ???
FFS
Tell that to the thousands of military and civilians that have lost their lives, been injured, lost their homes, and livelihoods in Afghan and Iraq as a result of Bush and Blair’s ‘meritorius contribution . . . to world peace.’
Pair of self-congratulatory, back slapping, arseholes !!!
