Blair Cancels Trip

Palestinian policemen, lead UN (United Nations) vehicles as they leave the area which was supposed to be visited by the envoy to the Middle East, Tony Blair, on 15 July 2008 in Bait Lahia.

The Middle East envoy and the former British Prime Minister, who had been expected to tour in the northern Gaza Strip, cancelled his trip; because he was refused entrance to Palestine, prior to his arrival.

Blair said, he cancelled his trip due to security fears; which is unfounded.

Blair does have criminal charges pending from previous trips, stemming towards terrorism activities, it was reported; as the UN (United Nations) vehicles were waiting to arrest Blair.
