Blair gets serious:
London - British Prime Minister Tony Blair outlined plans on Friday to "exclude and deport" foreigners deemed to promote violent acts of terror.At his last news conference before going on his summer break, Blair said new grounds for deportation would include fostering hatred, advocating violence to further a person's beliefs or justifying or validating such violence.
He said the Human Rights Act would be amended if necessary to make the deportation of people involved in inciting terrorism more straightforward.
"The rules of the game are changing," the prime minister said.
The new powers, developed in the wake of the London bombings, would make it easier for police to prosecute so-called "preachers of hate" in and around the country's mosques, according to the government.
Blair said that anyone involved in terrorism would be refused asylum in Britain.
The EU's stance on human rights is going to be an obstacle, and in the end Blair may just not mean what he says. We'll see soon enough. He could show his seriousness by tossing Omar Bakri Mohammed out of the UK forthwith.
