Blair proposes new power to attack rogue states

Tony Blair has proposed giving western democracies "the authority to attack any other sovereign country whose ruler is judged to be inflicting unnecessary suffering on his own people."

"Where a population is suffering serious harm, as a result of internal war, insurgency, repression or state failure, and the state in question is unwilling or unable to halt or avert it, the principle of non-intervention yields to the international responsibility to protect."


Not surprisingly Herr Schroeder does not like this proposal.
