In a May 11 article, “Tony Blair Joins Trump Envoy on Gaza Deal,” The Telegraph reported that Sir Tony Blair, British Prime Minister from 1997-2007, who has repeatedly plunged the world into crisis and war, and denounced the Westphalian foundations of Western civilization, has coaxed his way onto the staff of President Trump’s Special Envoy Steve Witkoff.
The Telegraph reports: “Donald Trump’s Middle East envoy has turned to Tony Blair—someone who knows better than anyone how the region can upend political careers and tarnish legacies—for advice.
“Steve Witkoff, a property developer and friend of Mr. Trump’s, has taken the former prime minister on as part of his network of advisers, according to two sources. It comes after the U.S. President expressed frustration at trying to end the war in Gaza.
“‘Mr. Blair is an obvious choice,’ said a Western diplomatic source. ‘He is a natural mediator and talks to both sides.’”
EIR is investigating how Blair became a Witkoff advisor.
