the war on TERRR OOOORRRRRRR..... RRROOOAAAAARRRRR!!!!!

Hey people of this mighty world... it has snowed here in London today and everything looks so beautiful! The snow sitting on the branchs of the trees and roof tops. The world looks like a christmas card today, I really love it!

This morning I had a nice coffee. Actually it was a mocha, I went into the cafe near where I work and bought it, I go in their most days, there is a really gorgeous Hungarian lady in there who hooks me up up with an extra shot of expresso too, also cos it was cold I got a steak bake from greggs... LOVELY. What a marvellous way to start off the morning!

Anyway, on to my blab for this day!

As above its regarding Tito B's "War on terORR" You have to say it like you are advertising a movie, you know that over dramatic voice that is always used, specially for blockbusters. I was reading this morning that Sir Ken Macdonald, the Director of public prosecutions, made a statement about the "war on terORR". it made very interesting reading, look it up if you can. What I liked is that he has actually thought about what he is saying, its not a speech with sound bites in it, just someone stating an honestly held opinion. A blessed relief in these times of spin and deception.

I am going to put a couple of quotes on here and then put my view. But as always please look it up for yourself and see what you think, I liked his words and agree with many of them, so here goes!


Quote.

"It is critical that we understand that this new form of terrorism carries another more subtle, perhaps equally pernicious, risk. Because it might encourage a fear-driven and inappropriate response. By that I mean it can tempt us to abandon our values. I think it important to understand that this is one of its primary purposes."

One of the things that Tito B and Big Gee Wizzle(Blair and Bush) have said is that the terrorists hate our values and way of life and thats why they are attacking the west. While this is not strictly a true statement, cos I think they are attacking the west because the west interfere with THEIR lives, I think thats what they dont like, it is true that the terrorists are now trying to get the west to change its ways through force of violence. The problem is, as aluded to by the DPP, that by changing our laws, by curbing long standing civil liberties and human rights we are in fact changing our values. We are less free now. We can be imprisoned without trial. Our values HAVE changed!

"London is not a battlefield. Those innocents who were murdered on July 7 2005 were not victims of war. And the men who killed them were not, as in their vanity they claimed on their ludicrous videos, 'soldiers'. They were deluded, narcissistic inadequates. They were criminals. They were fantasists. We need to be very clear about this. On the streets of London, there is no such thing as a 'war on terror', just as there can be no such thing as a 'war on drugs'."

If you are engaged in a "war" you have to want to win it, I guess, that would be normal right! So how would you "win" this war? We have to accept that foreign policy has something to do with all this, it is simply idiotic to suggest otherwise. Tony Blair says It is not the fault of the people of Britain, or America for that matter, that terrorist are trying to kill people and he is RIGHT, well its not our fault directly, but our governments over many decades, matter of fact over centuries, have caused havoc around the world by destablising countries to "protect our interests". So it is the fault of successive goverments, they are to blame. But because, after all is said and done, WE elect these people we DO have some culpability.

But back to the point, to win this war, we have to make sure that all people are free, not free to have their own natural resources be exploited by the west, but free to live their own lives without fear, with a fair chance to be happy. Thats all we need to do to achieve victory. Its not a victory for the west though, but a victory for humanity, a victory for regular people not to be exploited by the rich haves! We have the vote, we have the right to stand for parliament, we have to do this. Then ALL of us will be safe from the bad people, the bad people being the Bush's, the Blair's, The Osamas, The Rumsfelds etc of this world.

"The fight against terrorism on the streets of Britain is not a war. It is the prevention of crime, the enforcement of our laws and the winning of justice for those damaged by their infringement."

Yup, this is another true thing to say, these people are criminals, no matter how they term themselves, Martyrs...... COBBLERS. If you kill innocents you are not a Martyr, you are a monkeys scrotum. Simple! Islam does NOT condone the killing of innocents. Anyone who says that it does is also a monkeys scrotum, or sucks them.

I was just glad to see what the DPP had said, he should be applauded for it.

But look it up and see for yourself!

Anyway enjoy your day and remember that Jesus loves us all!
