Scratching my head
Nov 30th
I wondered how long it would take mad Mel to jump in head first to tell all and sundry what the Mumbai attacks proves. She says, “It is a war waged in the name of Islam against America, Britain, Hindus, Jews and all who refuse to submit to Islamic conquest.” She laments ‘western commentariat’ for being naïve and yet to understand what all this is about – in her mind “It does not arise from particular grievances. It is not rooted in ‘despair’ over Palestine. It is not a reaction to the war in Iraq.”
Triumphantly she announces, “The atrocities demonstrated with crystal clarity what the Islamist war is all about”. Shamelessly mad Mel felt the need to title her little rant ‘The war against civilisation’ More >
Defeating extremism by promoting balance.
Nov 19th
In a recent interview Huthaifa Azzam said, “If I saw an American or British man wearing a soldier’s uniform inside Iraq I would kill him because that is my obligation. If I found the same soldier over the border in Jordan I wouldn’t touch him. In Iraq he is a fighter and an occupier, here he is not. This is my religion and I respect this as the main instruction in my religion for jihad.”
He is also quoted as saying, “That is the last thing my father would have wanted but he knew the dangers of it. He always warned people to stay away from the extremists, he even put it in his will. What is happening today with Al-Qaeda is not his way.” More >
Save Interpal!
Nov 14th
A little while ago I wrote a blog on the situation in Palestine and how there is a concerted effort to squeeze the life out of the Palestinians. If it’s not the terrorist killing of children, men and women by the occupying Zionist’s army, then it’s the blockade – if that fails they turn off the fuel, the water supply and much more. But every now and again a little trickle of hope gets in whether by the noble efforts of the likes of Lauren Booth and the blockade busting ships.
Sometimes hope is provided by charities, one such charity is Interpal. We know the Zionists have tried to close down Interpal for a while now – one such attempt cost them dearly, but they have not given up. More >
Execution of Bali bombers was right
Nov 11th
No doubt we’ve all seen media images of the bodies of the Bali bombers being greeted as martyrs, whether they are accurate depictions or media exaggerations is a different matter. The real question for me is, should they have been executed for the bombings?
On balance, I think it was right they paid for their crimes in this way More >
Mad Mel and the Great Escape
Nov 11th
Mad Mel is now not only factually incorrect, but also incoherent. Just when you thought Mad Mel couldn’t lower the level of debate – yup, she’s done it again.
Trying to refute the idiocies of a rabid Ziono-fascist is probably doomed to failure. But I couldn’t resist the temptation More >
Two faces of the same coin?
Nov 7th
Although on the other side of the Atlantic, many here in Britain have been inspired by the large number of people who waited hours to vote in the US general election. Men, women, and the youth of all colours and races were inspired by the vision of change which Barack Obama so brilliantly and eloquently advocated. ‘Change has come to America’.
Or has it? More >
