Blair in talks with Tesco over £1m deal - Middle East
It seems strange that a company founded by a very Jewish and clever barrow boy now seeks a market place in the Middle East and there we have this Scottish has been prime minister chuck out in disgrace selling this nice little earner to the Arabs. But of course this Jewish founded corporation already has its teeth elsewhere in Muslim states.
Tony Blair has been in talks with Tesco about helping them open supermarkets in the Middle East - allegedly in return for up to £1million.
It is believed the discussions between the former Prime Minister, now a peace envoy to the region, and the supermarket chain, whose slogan is 'Every little helps', ended after the two sides failed to agree terms.
All about Tesco’s
Tesco plc is a UK-based international grocery and general merchandising retail chain. It is the largest British retailer by both global sales and domestic market share, with profits exceeding £3 billion. It is currently the third largest global retailer based on revenue, behind Wal-Mart and France's Carrefour, but second largest based on profit, ahead of Carrefour. Originally specialising in food and drink, it has diversified into areas such as clothing, consumer electronics, financial services, telecoms, home, health and car insurance, dental plans, retailing and renting DVDs,[4] CDs, music downloads, Internet services and software.
Interesting facts about the hard working clever Jewish founder..
Sometime around 1930 he changed his name by deed poll to John Edward at suggestion of his bank manager whose staff had trouble distinguishing between the many Jacob Cohens banking at the Mare Street branch in Hackney.
Actual I never have believed that story, and jack was known to joke, as many Jewish families changed their names to less Jewish sounding names, frighten of the growing anti-Semitism in London between the two World Wars. In the end he was knighted Sir John Edward Cohen.
I am interested always in Tesco’s as there are links between the founder and my grandfather at one time they were friends.
My mother also knew him I met him ones whilst a very young child. He was in fact very worth of being knighted he was a very good fair and square business man.
My thought on Mr Blair well he is making a lot of money after holding the chair of Prime Minister and of course ended up with a job for the boys. However because of a history of lying and having his hands caught in the candy jar, namely titles for cash, something that would make Jack Cohen roll in his grave.
Tony Blair should never be considered for the President of EU post he has dirty hands blooded also with the lives of soldiers sent to an two un-necessary wars.

Shame mr Cohen's fair mindedness didnt rub of on his granddaughter (westminster housing scandal) . As an anti zionist I dont like the fact that Tesco gives money to Israel, and boycot them along with Mcdonalds, mentioned by you in another story ! Also Starbucks, and Marks and Spencer. Coca Cola has a factory built on stolen Palestinian land, I dont drink that either.

She is a bitch and was total spoiled and corrupted by the system, I do not remember any thing mentioned about Jack being a Zionist I was led to believe he was moderate concerning religion. In fact many polish Jew Immigrants where similar in that respect.
I expected that Tesco's was giving money to Israel which could mean Jack was a Zionist, its not mentioned any where though, well at least i can not find any mention whilst researching.

Many Jewish owned businesses give money to Israel, taking care of the poor (in Russia for example) is one thing, but funding the settlement of some people facilitating the displacement of others, is a whole other story. As well as funding Israel directly Tesco also sell produce grown on stolen and occupied land.
