Blair, the west’s Mideast envoy, get $1 million from chief party to dispute (guess who?)

John Pilger in the New Statesman:

Protected by the fake sinecure of Middle East envoy for the Quartet
(the US, EU, UN and Russia), [Tony] Blair operates largely from a small
fortress in the American Colony Hotel in Jerusalem, where he is an
apologist for the US in the Middle East and Israel, a difficult task
following the bloodbath in Gaza. To assist his mortgages, he recently
received an Israeli “peace prize” worth $1m.

Gosh I missed this. Announced in Haaretz, February. (Thanks to Eva Smagacz)
