Yesterday Tony Blair declared that he will step down as a PM. Meanwhile in the village of Rakitnica, Kosova, his namesake Tonibler Dajaku is enjoying a happy childhood, which would have not been possible without Tony’s determination to human rights and bringing justice to the world. Had Tony - the PM - simply decided to stand aside and watch Milosevic’s criminal government ethnically cleanse Kosova from its native people, little Tonibler today in most likelihood, would be living in the mud and misery of a refugee camp. Like the experience of many Palestinian children grown up in such camps has shown, he would have most likely had a bitter and hateful life, prone to be thrown at the arms of international terrorism. So, for saving little Tonibler alongside a million other Albanians, from the claws of evil, Mr Tony Blair - a big THANK YOU from my heart. So much for the ridiculing from those little-brained, egotistical, western analysts that were mocking the Western intervention in Kosova as “Madeleine’s or Tony’s war” and were questioning the validity of the humanitarian motives for that intervention.

On a lighter note, the Dajaku last name is funny - in Albanian it means ‘the beating’. It’s advantageous, for it opens up a bunch of creative opportunities in naming children, the range of which you can easily guess. The child Tonibler was born shortly after the Kosova war, and I can imagine his parents contemplating that he was going to be a celebration of Tony Blair’s beating of Milosevic. I can toast to that: for little Tonibler, to have a long, healthy and prosperous life and Tony senior to have a healthy, respectful and serene retirement. Thank you Tony, the world will miss your reasonable and articulate voice.

95. We are waking up and linking to each other. We are watching. But we are not waiting.
