Rushes from an interview conducted with Tony Blair in late 2002, shortly after the Bali bombing. In it, the then Prime Minister Blair emphasises once again the threat of an organised global network of terrorism.
After a decade spent coming to terms with the realities of the war on terror, it's easy to forget the shrill nature of the debate at the moment of its inception. This remarkable document perfectly captures the emotional tenor of the discussion in 2002. The Prime Minister's assertions that "the links of Al-Qaeda are virtually everywhere" and that "they will target anyone, anywhere" offer a stark reminder of the hyperbole of the new global reality that emerged in the aftermath of the September 11th attacks.
