John Smith was a good politician whose ethos was following a different path to the agenda of the Elite, much like Dominic Strauss Kahn became recently.
Blair actually admitted, during an interview with Andrew Marr this year, that he was told the Labour leadership would fall to him around a month before John Smith 'died'.
There's some telling stuff in one of the Adam Curtis Documentaries.It's either in The Trap, or the Century of the Self, I can't remember which now

Someone knew that John Smith was going to be out of the running just before he died. Because they told Blair that.

Perhaps you're getting confused:
The Sun wrote:Tony Blair revealed last night he predicted Labour leader John Smith would die just weeks before he did. He told BBC interviewer Andrew Marr that he woke one morning "with some sort of strange certainty". Mr Blair, who took over as leader, added: "It's not a premonition or anything weird. Just a sense it was going to fall to me." He also claimed people "overestimated" Gordon Brown's abilities to be PM.
There is not one word from Blair's mouth that mentions either John Smith or his death. All he says is that he had a feeling that the Labour leadership would be his.

Murdering bastard, eh?
Smeggy and Annie live in a world of endless conspiracies. Freud would have had a field day with these two.

Who claim Blair killed Smith?
Blair was responsible for many many murders, but not John Smith

Mealy mouthed excuse from the BBC below.... They obviosuly didn't have any footage of lots of peopel celebrating and the propaganda agenda was collapsing.
Indian flag
Libyan flag
Dear Mr Watson,
Thanks for contacting us regarding ‘Breakfast’ broadcast on 24 August on BBC One.
We understand you were concerned that incorrect footage was shown during a report on the latest developments from Tripoli, and that images from India were broadcast instead.
We forwarded your complaint to ‘Breakfast’ Editors who explained in response that they realised within moments that they were showing the wrong footage and quickly took it down.
They also apologised immediately and pointed to how the problem was caused by confusion over a “feed” coming in to television centre from the international agencies.

The BBC news channel shows a video of Indians waving the Indian flag and tells us it's Libyans protesting in tripoli in green Square.

They simply showed the wrong footage. I watched the broadcast live and they put their hands up to it right away and apologised.
But there are plenty of people who have seen a huge decline in this Countries Basic living standards . I think there is a lot of truths about how the UK turned out after Blair ,to at least consider that his being made Prime Minister benifited the Elite .
"Although some early video did not show much wreckage"
that's becuase there wasn't any ( part from some obvisouly planted small pieces )

Just like Sky News did when they showed footage of Russian troops close to Tbilisi during the Georgian attack on SOuth Ossetia in 2008. Except it was footage of Russian troops a long long way from Tbilisi. Caught out.
Propaganda 101. Images of a huge crowd of people celebrating associated with Libya enters mind of average viewer. In my experience most people haven't much of a clue about geography. Job done

The BBC quickly ended the Have Your Say for their 9/11 conspiracy story - it was one of the shortest-running HYS's i've ever seen. It was just as a lot of comments were being posted that accused the BBC of being the mouthpiece of the government and of peddling propaganda. The HYS was closed to stop people voting up those comments.
911 is going to become a hot topic in a couple of weeks as it reaches it 10th Anniversary

Ha! Maybe that article was really an unofficial censor of sorts; to establish some statistics, ascertain both the scope, and the degree to which ordinary folks are becoming informed about the real truths and falsehoods regarding 9/11?
I guess they got their answer!
