"Of course, these terrorists will use Iraq as an excuse or use Afghanistan. September 11, of course, happened before both of those things and then the excuse was American policy or Israel. They will always have their reasons for acting. But we've got to be very careful of almost giving in to the sort of perverted and twisted logic with which they argue," Blair said.
Yesterday, a leading British research institute, the Royal Institute of International Affairs, released a report saying Blair's support for the U.S.-led Iraq war had made Britain a more high-profile terrorist target.
Karzai, for his part, urged Britain to work to unite people everywhere in the world to fight the menace of terrorism to the end.
