Political Correctness An Insidious Danger

The final Blog of year can be a tricky thing ..... is it optimism, or pessimism, or a mix that is the appropriate tone ... do you look forward or backward?

No PC Views
No PC Views

I have thought a little about this and decided to talk about the subject that concerns me most at the moment .... surprisingly its not the rise of Islam and increasing Dhimmitude of the UK, because if we are too stupid as a society to stop this happening, then maybe we deserve to let our Western civilisation slip away.

Gaza - The Land Of Tears

The Israeli response to the rocket attacks that Hamas has carried out, on a more or less daily basis since Israel withdrew from Gaza, has provoked much world reaction.

Hamas Rockets Range

As you might expect the Arabs have been out on the streets, "Death to Israel" is no doubt the chant from Damascus to Cairo ... not a word condemning Hamas's part in all of this, but then there never is, is there?

The 'Holy Land' burns once again

Sadly, there are reports that Israel has made good on its threats to Hamas and attacked the Gaza strip ..... the 'Holy Land' in flames again. There will one day be an Armageddon there, mark my words...... oh hang on, the 'end of times' gig is already booked for there, and coming sooner than the next millennium or rapture by the look of it.

If Iran ever gets its nuclear weapons, aided by the Russians, Chinese (and no doubt the French), there will likely be a small(ish) but still very nasty nuclear war, leaving some areas of the Middle East largely uninhabitable and with no possible winners. Certainly whats left (if anything) of Israel, the Palestinians, Jordanians and Syrians will have little to be happy about.... Iran will have been laid to nuclear waste.

Hopefully common sense will break out, and there won't be a nuclear war there or anywhere in the world (although India and Pakistan are rattling nuclear sabres at each other again), but there are no signs of this "common sense outbreak" at the moment.

One thing is for sure, there will be at least one nuclear war one day, the slow but inevitable spread of such weapons means that someone will be mad enough to use them, and the chances are that it will be some lunatic who believes that "God or Allah", is waiting to greet the one who uses a nuclear weapon in his name ..... Iran and others in that region have a large number of such thinkers, so .......

If you want to see the effects of one smallish nuclear weapon, and its fallout, go here and select your target of choice e.g Jerusalem. Click on map to place explosion site in region. Only a dozen or so smaller war heads on or near Israel, will end both it and many of the surrounding countries forever.

Of course there are always some people who believe that they can survive a nuclear war, or that at least they can isolate themselves from the consequences of such a conflict ..... the silliness of that idea can be illustrated nicely like this ....

Happy Christmas?

I didn't blog on Christmas Day as I was too busy cooking (for one.... sigh), but I have looked at the news this morning, and sadly the world still spins......

When "Animal Rights" subvert "Human Rights"

Once again an "Animal Rights" type organisation has been found guilty of criminal and terrorist like behaviour ............ they are cowards and scum, who hide behind balaclava's, telephones, and the dead of night, to terrorise people who are not supporters of their extreme views.

How else can you reasonably describe groups who send used female sanitary towels, or used condoms, razor blades, and syringe needles (claimed to be from people who are infected with AIDS), to people and businesses in the post? And what do the used condoms tell you about the type of excitement these 'thrill seekers' get from threatening people?

This blog has pointed out before, that these people are criminals and nothing less, but are all too easily allowed to campaign with supposedly 'legal and law abiding' groups such as the Greens.

There are no excuses in a democracy for attacking people who don't subscribe to your views, but listening to the spokeswoman for Stop Huntingdon Animal Cruelty (SHAC), aka the Animal Liberation Front (According to the police "SHAC and the ALF are one and the same thing, there is no club, no rules of membership." ), on Radio Four, was like listening to a Nazi Lawyer at Nuremberg.

Debbie Vincent, who according to this web site, has a criminal conviction of her own for her behaviours in support of SHAC, (and had been sentenced to a 120-hour community punishment order), squirmed and prevaricated, and could not bring herself to condemn the activities of these scum, whilst just about saying something like 'It's not us, but I can understand why people might take these actions".

I hope they get very, very, long sentences, but expect that our justice system will let them out far too soon. They are profiled here in the crime pages, not as martyrs, not political, just the crime pages, which is where they deserve to be, because thats all they are.

Here are the latest faces of animal lunacy..... of people who have been convicted of blackmail, paedophile smears, criminal damage, bomb hoaxes, and the reason why they hurt their fellow human beings? ............ A rats rights.

Grumpy Old Man - Hands Out Lesson

This story made me laugh, I know I shouldn't have, because it involves violence which resulted in five people being taken to hospital, two of whom were seriously injured ...

PC Reporting By BBC Slants Truth

This story on the BBC Website, about 'youths' having rioted in the southern Swedish city of Malmo, at first glance looks perfectly normal ....

..... and the headline and text hint that the "riots" are in some way similar in nature to the recent events in Greece.

Admittance of the Truth

Gordon Brown, after years of trying to deny any connection between terrorist activities in the UK, or against UK troops around the world, and Pakistani immigrants has been forced to admit that three-quarters of the most serious terror plots being investigated by UK authorities, have links to Pakistan.

No Shit Sherlock! Welcome to the world as the rest of us know it.

This blog has long reported the connection between the Taliban in both Pakistan and Afghanistan, to towns in the UK that have large Pakistani or Bangladeshi populations, so for Brown to suddenly acknowledge the connection is something of a breakthrough.

The truth is that Pakistans badlands and cities are now the launchpads of most of the Islamic terrorist attacks around the world (excluding Iraq), including the Mumbai Outrage. Maybe, just maybe the PC left are beginning to have to admit that all is not well in the pakistan connection to the UK.

Perhaps this signals a recognition that endless islamic immigration is a danger to us all.

A Greek Tragedy II

Greece has been beset by street protests and troubles for the last week, the nature of which are reminiscent of the Paris troubles of 1968.

Greek Unrest 2008
Greek Unrest

The cause of this unrest is ostensibly the death of a teen boy, shot by police after a disturbance but the trouble quickly spread and now seems aimed at the ills of Greek political society.

A Greek Tragedy

This story illustrates the downturn in the economic fortunes of Greece since the country had its heyday, as a funds recipient country in the EU (before enlargement took UK money to other destinations). There has in fact been a small rise in the absolute numbers of UK visitors to Greece, but this is offset by the fact that as the cost of living has reached parity with, and in some cases surpassed, that of the UK, the type of visitors to Greece seems to have changed.

Getting a Hit from AIDS drugs in South Africa

Remember all that fuss about South Africa not giving Anti-retro Viral drugs to HIV sufferers, citing costs and a belief that AIDS came from another source.

Dr Beetroot South Africa
Dr Beetroot In South Africa

The then health minister Manto Tshabalala-Msimang (aka "Dr Beetroot"), suggested traditional treatments like garlic, lemons and beetroot's, instead of championing anti-retroviral drugs. "We should build up immune systems" was her defence against attacks.

The One Eyed Veil proposed for shameless women

This story has done the rounds recently .......

Two Eyes Too Sexy For Her Burqa?

Too Sexy for her Burqa?
 
A Saudi Cleric, Sheikh Muhammad al-Habadan , who is apparently influential (so Allah help the women of his congregation), has said that too many women make up their eyes to inflame men's passions, and that even wearing the normal Saudi woman's attire of, full tent with eye slit (Burqa and Niqab), is lewd and unseemly.

The "Karaoke King" dies

A strange little story, in which a man who refused to hand over the microphone in a Karaoke bar in Sandakan, Malaysia, and sang, and sang, and sang and sang, until finally the other patrons of the bar, killed him!

I have some sympathy for the killers in this instance, as I remember once that a man in a pub in Chorlton-Cum-Hardy I was in, put a huge amount of money into the Juke Box and played "Olivers Army" by Elvis Costello over and over again, but before he could be killed, the landlord evicted him and switched the jukebox on and off so that it reset.

So if these guys are looking for a jury member, just drop me a line!

Cholera stalks Africa

I mentioned in an earlier blog that getting Mugabe out of power would a bit more than problematic, despite votes against him at home and condemnations abroad ..... well here we are some months later and Mugabe is still in power, despite losing an election, reneging on a forced power sharing scheme, and every other cop out that SADC could devise.

Now comes the news that the country has collapsed to the state that the scourge of Cholera now stalks southern Africa, with well over 600 deaths (probably double that or more) in Zimbabwe and outbreaks in other countries, as refugees take the illness with them across the borders. Previously it has only been the ruins that comprise the DR Congo, that have threatened to sink to this level of misery after independence.

How low can a country in Africa sink before other Africa leaders admit that its failed?

They still refuse to depose Mugabe, and even when figures suggest that nearly fifty percent of the population are in exile or heading for refugee camps, they will not condemn the criminal incompetence that has destroyed a whole rich country inside twenty five years.

I will not mince my words here, Black Africans politicians are little more than criminals and semi educated scum ..... they are all thieves and tyrants, and Sub Saharan Africa is a basket case, despite the odd 'good news' story.

Maybe we should just abandon the whole continent and leave them to fall back into the tribalism and barbarism that they appear to want.

There is not one, not one single one of these countries, that I would be happy to live in, and I include South Africa in that, as they are only one dictator away from the joining 'African Model'. I have friends in SA who suggest that corruption is increasingly a problem in SA, even at the top with both Mbeki and Zuma under suspicion of taking bribes.

A Tale of Two Politicians

There has been something of a political scandal going on in the UK, where an opposition MP Damian Green was arrested under anti terrorism legislation, on the apparently non - terrorist charge of 'suspicion of conspiring to commit misconduct in public office' (aka being leaked home office immigration secrets), his offices and homes searched.

This was compounded by the the 'sanctity' of MP's in the Palace of Westminster being abused when the Serjeant-at-Arms, who works for the 'speaker of the house' (who is a government MP appointee), allowed the police in to Parliament with no warrants.

The protection against arrest in Parliament had been one of the MP's arguments with Charles I before the English Civil War, so this was a serious matter, and when former Labour MP Tony Benn said that 'Once the police can interfere with Parliament, we are into the police state', you know it was a serious breach of privileges. As usual all the Government Ministers claimed to have had no knowledge of events.

Then we come to Peter Hain, a man I freely admit to considering nothing more than a political chancer, who flips and flops his opinions to get office (He was famously anti nuclear and then not so when given a ministerial job) ..... he had been under something of a cloud over £103,000 in campaign donations, which were declared 'late'. He has now been investigated and prosecutors said on Friday there was 'insufficient evidence to charge him with anything'.

He has been on TV and Radio and told BBC Radio 5 Live: "I stepped down from the government to clear my name and now I'm pleased I have done so". Now forgive me, but 'insufficient evidence to charge' someone, is not the same as 'clearing' them, and its this sloppy interpretation of events that is a hall mark of this governments spin.

Justice for Nicole Simpson and Ronald Goldman

I have a streaming cold which is driving me insane, but one little bit of good news, was the sentence of OJ Simpson to fifteen years for kidnap and armed robbery .... sadly he will probably be out in six, (if he doesn't appeal), but at least its some time in prison for a murderer who got away with it in public, because a black majority jury wouldn't convict a 'black hero'.

Short of killing her live on TV, the evidence couldn't have been more damning, except apparently if you shout "Racism" over and over again to a poor black jury. The fact that he was ordered to pay $33.5m (£19m) in damages after a civil suit by Mr Goldman's father, shows what a normal jury found to be the true case.

Best line of the Story, Judge Glass also denied defence motions for bail pending appeal, saying 'both defendants posed a risk of fleeing'...... ha ha ha, and they say Americans don't do irony!
