Prime Minister Tony Blair said he will urge next week’s UN summit of world leaders to strongly condemn all those who incited or encouraged terrorism, a move he said was long overdue.

Blair is battling radical Muslim clerics he blames for spreading a violent ideology that led to the July 7 bombings in London.

“We’ve got to take a very strong stand on the part of the international community, saying, we condemn this, we condemn it utterly,” Blair said following an India-EU summit in New Delhi.
