Does This One Count As “Saved” Or “Created”??

Mohamed Osman Mohamud, 19, a Somali-born U.S. citizen, was arrested at 5:42 p.m., 18 minutes before the tree lighting was to occur, on an accusation of attempting to use a weapon of mass destruction. The felony charge carries a maximum sentence of life in prison and a $250,000 fine.

Mohamed Osman Mohamud, 19, was arrested at 5:40 p.m. Friday just after he dialed a cell phone that he thought would set off the blast but instead brought federal agents and police swooping down on him. Yelling “Allahu Akbar!” — Arabic for “God is great!” — Mohamud tried to kick agents and police after he was taken into custody, according to prosecutors.

“The threat was very real,” said Arthur Balizan, special agent in charge of the FBI in Oregon. “Our investigation shows that Mohamud was absolutely committed to carrying out an attack on a very grand scale,”

Um, except it wasn’t a bomb. And the FBI just didn’t happen upon this guy by chance. Nor were they tipped off at the last second. No, they’d been watching this guy for months. They’d been working with him. It seems that they even assembled his bomb for him, although the bomb they built was not real.

However, the supposed explosive was a dummy that FBI operatives supplied to him, according to an affidavit in support of a criminal complaint signed Friday night by U.S. Magistrate Judge John V. Acosta.
...
The arrest was the culmination of a long-term undercover operation, during which Mohamud had been monitored for months as his alleged bomb plot developed.

“The device was in fact inert, and the public was never in danger,” according to a news release from the U.S. Attorney’s Office.

According to the FBI affidavit, the case began in August 2009 when Mohamud was in e-mail contact with an unindicted associate overseas who was believed to be involved in terrorist activities. In December 2009, while the unindicted associate was in a frontier province of Pakistan, Mohamud and the associate discussed the possibility of Mohamud traveling to Pakistan to participate in violent jihad.

The associate allegedly referred Mohamud to a second associate overseas and provided him with a name and e-mail address. In the months that followed, Mohamud made several unsuccessful attempts to contact the second associate.

Ultimately, an FBI undercover operative contacted Mohamud in a June 2010 e-mail under the guise of being an associate of the first unindicted associate.

So when this kid - who was probably about 17 at the time this started - tries and tries and tries to hook up with the real jihadis, and FAILS every single time, the FBI puts on a digital kaffiyea and makes contact with him. And then leads the kid around by the nose for the next solid year?

Mohamud and the FBI operative agreed to meet in Portland a month later. Mohamud allegedly told the FBI operative that he had written articles that were published in Jihad Recollections, an online magazine that advocated holy war.

Yes, they gave the boy a whole bunch of chances to back out.

The FBI operatives cautioned Mohamud several times about the seriousness of his plan, noting that there would be many people, including children, at the event, and that Mohamud could abandon his plans at any time with no shame.

But he wouldn’t. So they talked him into letting them build the bomb for him. And they even took him on an outing before this to set of a smaller real bomb. To prove their own bona fides?

He allegedly identified a location to place the bomb and mailed bomb components to the FBI operatives, who he believed were assembling the device. He also mailed them passport photos so he could sneak out of the country after the attack, according to the affidavit.

He provided the FBI operatives with a thumbdrive that contained detailed directions to the bomb location and operational instructions for the attack.

On Nov. 4, Mohamud and the FBI operatives traveled to a remote spot in Lincoln County, where they detonated a bomb concealed in a backpack as a trial run for the upcoming attack.

And so on and so on. But what they never did was take the kid by the scruff of his neck, ring the doorbell at his parent’s house, and say, “Look Dad, your kid wants to be a terrorist. And we’ve got the proof. You’d better straighten him out right now, because if we have to do it, he’ll either wind up in a pine box or spend the rest of his life in jail.”

Is there a line in here somewhere? A limit? I have not yet heard that this kid’s arrest has led to an entire terrorist network being rolled up, or that any great new sources of information have been gleaned by interrogating him. What I have read sounds a lot like enabling. I don’t want to say “entrapment”, but the FBI was onto this kid from the beginning. Why not just collect him then and get him some psychiatric treatment? Why bother to let him go all the way to planting a “bomb” and “pushing the button” before arresting him? In which case, why not shoot him?

Meanwhile, there’s that nutjob Serb out in California with so much explosives in his house that stepping on the grass is like jumping on a landmine. And the ONLY way he got found out is when the yard guy got blown up by accident. And notice the part of that story you really, really aren’t hearing about: he’s been back and forth to Mexico a whole bunch of times lately. Wonder if that’s where he got the explosives, and maybe even the training to use them?

So I’m kind of wondering if this was the right approach ... or the right use of resources. Yes, absolutely it’s better to have fed this Somali dingbat a line of poop the whole time, than to have had no contact or awareness of him and then come in with the dustpan and brush and absorbent paper towels when he sets off a REAL bomb. But it sure makes me wonder how many of these “naturalized citizens” from radical muslim lands are in our country plotting bad things. Maybe we shouldn’t have let them in in the first place?

Maybe I’m in one of those “root causes” moods. As a nation we spend so damn much blood and treasure trying to “win hearts and minds” overseas, so why not do it right here? Why aren’t all parents - not just muzzies - not pointing out how stupid, wasteful, and ultimately ineffective, jihad splodeydope-ism is? I don’t see that happening. I don’t see “Your daily message of peace and tolerance, brought to you by CAIR” on the TV or in the newspapers. I don’t see the American Imams on the religious channels preaching any of that Rodney King “Why can’t we all just get along” stuff.

So maybe it is better that the FBI have the “terrorist cells” so heavily infiltrated that only 1 in 1000 of them is actually real. And that all the emails over to sandland are read and perhaps redirected. So all our stupid little children, those angst ridden teens who can’t get laid or who can’t fit in, who “try to get even” and turn to jihad are really almost always just turning themselves over to the feds. We’re safer that way ... but we’d be safer, and the government would spend a whole lot less money, if somehow the parents, schools, and local churches and mosques could get involved when the “roots” have only sent up a small bud or two. And by “a small bud” and “getting involved” I don’t mean doping little kids to the gills with psych meds and expelling them from school when they make stick figure drawings of cowboys and soldiers with guns when they’re 6. That’s an asinine reaction indicative of a pendulum swung way too far the wrong way, and belies any critical reasoning. But somewhere between pulling wings off of flies, setting fire to the neighbor’s cat, and Columbine or Ground Zero there has to be a point where a bit of effort can change the river’s direction.

On the third hand, or is it the fifth or sixth one by now ... I’m sure the FBI wants everyone to believe how close they are watching, and how much of the terrorist underworld they have sewn up. And it seems like they do, as wannabe after wannabe has been caught year after year. Until the next big blast catches everyone by surprise. Like, um, where would we be if that gardener had taken the day off, or stepped onto a different patch of grass?

Smokey this is not ‘Nam, this is bowling. There are rules.

Man cited for using stun gun, pepper spray on opposing bowlers

A league bowler went over the line when he used pepper spray on two opponents after zapping one of them with a stun gun, Lincoln police said.

The man accused of misdemeanor assault told police he was defending himself.

According to police reports, two teams were trash talking during a league match at Sun Valley Lanes on Thursday night.

“But everything was friendly,” one of the bowlers told police, according to the report.

Three of the team members walked outside and, they told police, were followed by opponent Matthew Lafon, 20. According to reports, Lafon and one of the team members, a 30-year-old man, were arguing face-to-face when Lafon pulled out an 80,000-volt stun gun and applied it to the man’s abdomen.

The man hit Lafon in the face and pushed him away. One of the other bowlers, 28, went to break up the confrontation and was pepper sprayed when Lafon pulled a canister from his pocket and aimed it at the man who pushed him.

Lafon drove home and was contacted by police at his apartment at 2820 Jameson North. According to police reports, he said he was “placed in fear of my safety” outside the bowling alley at 321 Victory Lane.

Police said he was the instigator and cited him for misdemeanor assault.

Student, 13, told to remove Stars and Stripes from his bike ..  when will we start killing lefties?

This can only happen in a PC state in a situation with libtards in charge of things.  I really wish there were some way of removing the pc crowd, by any means, who are responsible for teaching and brainwashing a generation into buying into this sort of crap. Jeez I really hate the bastards.

Student, 13, told to remove Stars and Stripes from his bike… to avoid ‘racial tensions’ with other pupils

By Daily Mail Reporter
13th November 2010

A California middle school student was told to remove a U.S. flag from his bike to avoid ‘racial tensions’ with other pupils.

Cody Alicea, 13, was told not to fly the flag from his bike while at Denair Middle School, in Sacramento, after other students made complaints, according to KCRA-TV.

District superintendent Edward Parraz said that racial tensions at the school boiled over during the Cinco de Mayo holiday - a national holiday in Mexico.

Mr Parraz said: ‘The First Amendment is important. We want the kids to respect it, understand it, and with that comes a responsibility.

‘Our Hispanic, you know, kids will, you know, bring their Mexican flags and they’ll display it, and then of course the kids would do the American flag situation, and it does cause kind of a racial tension which we don’t really want.

‘We want them to appreciate the cultures.’

The teenagers parents said he flies the flag from his bike as a tribute to service veterans in his family.

His father Robert Kisner said: ‘He’s got that flag on his bike because he’s proud of where he comes from.’

The student folds the flag up and keeps it in his backpack during classes, the TV station added.

FLAG SOURCE

superintendent Edward Parraz said the following.

‘Our Hispanic, you know, kids will, you know’

Huh? you know, you know?  What’s with this guy? I think we can overlook a wetback accent. But should not a school superintendent be able to string a few words together better then that?
Word is that the flag was reinstated but I’m not pacified.  How could that happen to begin with? Teach the fuckin wetback kiddies that our flag takes precedence.  One right no immigrant motherhumper has, is the right to be ‘offended’ by OUR FLAG. Damn it! What the hell is wrong with ppl today?
If our flag offends you, get the fuck out of my country you stupid assed pile of shit.  And who the hell is teaching school kids that they should be offended in the first damn place?

the eu court says, working fathers in Spain are entitled to take ‘breastfeeding leave.

You just know the world is a very mad place with stuff like this accepted as a matter of normal course. And of course as Spain is an EU member and the rocket scientists at the EU know all things .... well it just follows that what the EU says, Spain must follow.

I mentioned this the other day but didn’t post the story as other things got in the way ....

Remember when I thought I found the Moonbat Award for the whole year believing nothing could be dumber then Sense of humour failure: Council slaps ban on mother-in-law jokes for being ‘offensively sexist’
I was sure that took the prize.  Well not so fast there P.  This one might trump that earlier entry, although that one still deserves to be remembered as Moonbat stupid.  But take a look at this one.

Spanish fathers entitled to breastfeeding leave

Europe’s top court has declared that working fathers in Spain are entitled to take ‘breastfeeding leave’ everyday, even if the mother of the child is not employed.

By Barney Henderson

The new legislation means that both the mother and father are allowed to leave work for an hour during the day or reduce their working day by half an hour during the first nine months following the birth of a child.

The European Union Court of Justice in Luxembourg ruled on Thursday that the Spanish law caused an “unjustified discrimination on grounds of sex” because fathers do not have the same rights as mothers.

Fathers are currently only allowed to apply for breastfeeding leave if the mother is employed full time.
The Spanish man who challenged the law, Pedro Manuel Roca Alvarez, said his request to take breastfeeding leave from his job in Galicia was rejected because the mother of his child was self-employed.

The top court said such a refusal could have the effect of forcing self-employed mothers to limit their work because the father cannot share the burden.
Not giving dads the same right as mums in this case “is liable to ... keep men in a role subsidiary to that of women in relation to the exercise of their parental duties,” the court ruled.

Breastfeeding leave should now be considered as “time purely devoted to the child” in order to reconcile family life and work after maternity leave.

seems like the only things that changes is, the stories get more bizarre and more maddening

See if this doesn’t make ya see red.  Good grief.  How the hell could any authority allow this to happen.

I can’t help but wonder if there’s more we don’t know about but .... after all.  The property is hers.

As for the squatter ... when you see the words ‘council house’ be sure and read it as, “welfare housing.”

Squatters do not need the protection of any law.  They need to be shot.  But hurt em first.  No one shot one kill.  Make em very sorry first, that they made their last mistake and stole their last property. 

Homeless and penniless, the mother-of-two forced to spend £50k to get squatter evicted from her house

By Daily Mail Reporter

A mother-of-two has been left penniless after spending £50,000 fighting a 15-month legal battle to get a squatter evicted from her home.
Dy Maurice, 50, was homeless for a year after a tenant secretly sub-let her house while she was out of the country.
The new tenant then declared squatters rights on the £250,000 property and refused to move out.

She had to hire a lawyer to obtain a civil court order before the bailiffs were called in to evict the squatter, while renting some place to live.
The house, in Cheshire, has sustained £20,000 worth of damage and the property value has been reduced by £80,000 to £170,000.
It is believed the squatter is now living in a three-bedroom council house.

Ms Maurice said: ‘This law on squatters rights is totally and utterly disgraceful and damaging, soul-destroying, and it’s time MPs realised this.
‘I will not stop until this law is removed and the police have every right to remove any squatter who has not got a contract for the property in question.
‘I will commit all my power as long as it takes to rid the country of squatters’ rights. It’s so illegal. It’s ridiculous.’

Ms Maurice had bought her home in 2001 but moved to Dublin in June 2007 to run a beauty salon, renting her house to a local businessman.
But when she called to check everything was alright, she was informed that the man’s business partner was now living in the property instead.
Ms Maurice, who has two sons, immediately flew home but the new tenant refused to let her in her own house.
She called police who told her there was nothing they could do. She then began legal action.

Ms Maurice, who is currently unemployed due to ill health, said: ‘I was furious. I was livid, angry, distraught. I flew back to Dublin extremely upset feeling helpless dealing with the police, solicitors, trying to work at the same time here basically exhausted physically and mentally, but determined to win my home back.
‘It cost me a fortune because eventually my rent contract came up so I had to go to a B&B because I couldn’t come home. I was desperate to come home and get my life in order.
‘Then the squatter told police he was going to move out. I gave up my job and flew home. But he still refused to leave. I was homeless.’
She eventually won a court order at Macclesfield County Court to have the man evicted.
Bailiffs forcibly removed him a month later.

When Ms Dyson returned to the house, she found that wires had been sliced on the alarm system, stains around the fire and ruined soft furnishings.
All the kitchen equipment had been removed.

‘This has been devastating and cost me my life savings. I have even been visited by debt collectors looking for this man,’ Ms Dyson said.
‘They came to collect items to the value of his debts, they thought I was his wife and I had to show them my passport to actually basically say to them you must be joking I’m not this squatters wife. I’m the owner of my property.

‘It’s impacted the value hugely because everyone knows in this area that this place has had a squatter and it’s had debt collectors at the door. It’s put a bad mark on my property.
‘If I would have been five years older I would have had a heart attack.’

Breast-feeding at the Y…M…C…A…

H/T OldCatMan

OCM quotes the article without giving a link. I found a link to an article covering this event here. But go to OCM’s blog. He’s got interesting audio/visual coverage.

Elizabeth Gomez , a mother of three from Medford, said she was told by a Y employee to leave the baby-sitting area of the North Suburban YMCA after starting to breast-feed her three-month old son earlier this week.

“She said there is no eating or drinking within the (babysitting) area,” Gomez, 36, said in an interview Thursday. “She told me I had to go out into the hallway . . . I said ‘I have a lawful right to be here.”

I’m… well, not sure if ‘appalled’ is the right word. ‘Flabbergasted’? Yeah, I’m flabbergasted that:

A) anyone would use that against a breast-feeding mother. This was the baby-sitting area. Would it have been okay to give a baby a bottle? Rules against eating and drinking target unwrapped food and open beverages for sanitary reasons. I’ve never heard such rules used against baby bottles or, in this case, breasts.

B) “I have a lawful right to be here.” True and sad. Massachusetts actually had to pass a law to allow women to breast-feed? That’s sad. Just because breasts have a secondary use as play toys for boys doesn’t mean there’s anything immoral about breast-feeding in a public place.

A state law protects mothers who breast-feed in public. It states that a mother, “may breastfeed her child in any public place which is open to . . . the general public,” and where the mother and child are lawfully present.

A spokeswoman for the Massachusetts Breastfeeding Coalition, which pushed for passage of the state law, said the Y incident is an example of how employers don’t understand the state law, which has been on the books since April, 2009.

“Breastfeeding is not the same as opening up a lunch box with apples, bananas, and crumbs that are going to fall onto the floor,” said Marsha Walker, a board member of the nonprofit coalition based in Weston. “Breastfeeding is nutrition, but it’s a little different because a mother has to provide it.”

Q.E.D. I’m not actually shilling for breast-feeding, but I do wish people wouldn’t go nuts over a natural mother-child interaction.

“NOT the whiteman’s bi#ch”

Unfortunately, it appears that the bi#ch is the whiteman’s burden.

H/T Weasel Zippers:

State elections officials narrowly rejected a Milwaukee Assembly candidate’s attempt to run with the slogan “NOT the ‘whiteman’s bi#ch’ ” under her name on the ballot.

Ieshuh Griffin, a Milwaukee independent running to replace retiring Rep. Annette “Polly” Williams (D-Milwaukee), said in response she would sue the Government Accountability Board for infringing on her freedom of speech.

“I’m not making a derogatory statement toward an ethnic group. I’m stating what I’m not,” Griffin told board members. “It’s my constitutional right to freedom of speech.”

Okay…? Personally, I don’t mind if she uses that on her own campaign materials. But she’s asking the taxpayers to foot the bill to have that printed on ballots. The only thing I’ve ever seen on a ballot was a name and party affiliation. So unless NOT the ‘whiteman’s bi#ch is the name of her party… nyet.

Even Rush Limbaugh commented on this.

The only reason I posted this was because of the comments at Weasel Zippers:

Running Bare says:

So… ummm… this begs the question – whose bitch IS she, then?

9-11 infidel says:
July 21, 2010 at 9:22 PM

‘NOT the ‘whiteman’s bi#ch’ ? Hmmm…interesting slogan. I wonder what she would think if a white chick ran for the same job under the slogan “Not the “ni**er’s ho?” Would she then also be stating what she is not? Would that be her constitutional right too? Nah. Not with your double standard… bee-yatch.

Wiley C. says:
July 21, 2010 at 9:23 PM

But you are a BITCH – right?

Now we know who’s bitch she isn’t. But we’re still haggling over her price.

Colorado Town Takes Style From UK

WHEAT RIDGE, Colo. - Admitted thieves are going free, while an elderly Wheat Ridge man is facing the possibility of spending the rest of his life behind bars, all, he says, for trying to defend his property and his life.

82-year-old Robert Wallace said in February that he looked out his window and saw two men hooking his flatbed trailer up to their pickup. He yelled at them to stop, but they sped away, stealing his trailer. He told police he fired two shots at the pickup.

Minutes later, police say 32-year-old Damacio Torres dropped 28-year-old Alvaro Cardona off at a hospital emergency room with a gunshot wound to the face.

Torres did not stay to talk with police, but they caught up with him later. According to court documents, he admitted he and Cardona stole the trailer.

Wallace did not want to talk on camera, but when we asked him if the two men threatened him he said, “They almost ran me over.”

The Jefferson County DA’s office said that neither Torres nor Cardona have been charged with anything at this point, even though Torres confessed to the crime. However, the homeowner, Wallace is facing twelve felony counts, including four counts of attempted first degree murder. If convicted, he could spend the rest of his life behind bars.

Sources say Torres and Cardona are believed to be in the country illegally and both have an arrest record. Cardona’s record includes public fighting and numerous traffic offenses like driving without a license or insurance. Torres’s record includes agricultural trespassing as well as a 2005 arrest for aggravated motor vehicle theft for which he was given a plea bargain to a lesser crime. Sources say Torres is also under investigation for being part of a major auto theft ring.

I so hope this doesn’t become our new national anthem. Especially since we like to believe we started with it. I don’t want to ironically end with it as well.

The World Turned Upside Down

Without fanfare, the United Nations this week elected Iran to its Commission on the Status of Women, handing a four-year seat on the influential human rights body to a theocratic state in which stoning is enshrined in law and lashings are required for women judged “immodest.”

Just days after Iran abandoned a high-profile bid for a seat on the U.N. Human Rights Council, it began a covert campaign to claim a seat on the Commission on the Status of Women, which is “dedicated exclusively to gender equality and advancement of women,” according to its website.

Buried 2,000 words deep in a U.N. press release distributed Wednesday on the filling of “vacancies in subsidiary bodies,” was the stark announcement: Iran, along with representatives from 10 other nations, was “elected by acclamation,” meaning that no open vote was requested or required by any member states—including the United States.

Iran’s elevation to the commission comes as a black eye just days after the U.S. helped lead a successful effort to keep Iran off the Human Rights Council, which is already dominated by nations that are judged by human rights advocates as chronic violators of essential freedoms. The current membership of the women’s commission is little different.

Though it touts itself as “the principal global policy-making body” on women’s rights, the makeup of the commission is mostly determined by geography and its membership is a hodge-podge of some human rights advocates (including the U.S., Japan, and Germany) and other nations with stark histories of rights violations.

The number of seats on the commission is based on the number of countries in a region, no matter how small their populations or how scant their respect for rights. The commission is currently made up of 13 members from Africa, 11 from Asia, nine from Latin America and the Caribbean, eight from Western Europe and North America, and four from Eastern Europe.

This announcement comes less than 48 hours after Iran’s latest female-woman-hater’s-club idiocy: Flog the evil women who have suntans!!!!!!!!!1111eleventy!!!!11

Wassamatta UN, couldn’t you find a place in your commission for Sudan?


Will we ever be rid of this rat infested bunch of dirtbags?

US out of UN! UN out of US! Jizzlam delenda est!!

BREAKING NEWS: North Korea ‘torpedos and sinks’ South Korean navy ship with 104 sailors on board

The nut jobs running things in the starving north and of course that’s means Kim Jong one dong whoever.  Whatcha thinks folks?  War between the two after all these years?  Prolly not. 

But a Moonbat Award to:  Kim Jong-il of N. Korea.  Jerk.

NORTH KOREAN ATTACK ON SHIP FROM SOUTH

By Mail Foreign Service
Last updated at 4:23 PM on 26th March 2010

A South Korean naval ship with 104 on board was sinking today after a suspected torpedo attack by North Korea.

The 1,500-tonne vessel is going down near Baengnyeong island, with rescue crews fearing many sailors have died.

In apparent retaliation, the South Korean navy shot at an unidentified ship in the direction of North Korea.

The incident is viewed as a potential flashpoint which could plunge the two countries into all-out conflict.

South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said that it is not clear what caused the ship to sink. It is believed 59 sailors have been rescued.

South Korea’s government has convened an emergency meeting of security ministers, according to state television.

Authorities say the ship began sinking around 10:45 pm local time (1.45pm GMT) in the Yellow Sea.

The dramatic escalation between the two countries comes after North Korea has warned that it was bolstering its defences in response to joint South Korean-U.S. military drills that were held this month.

North Korea had already threatened ‘unprecedented nuclear strikes’ against its southern neighbour and the U.S over claims they are planning to topple the communist regime.

I was just going to post on this one but Peiper beat me to it. Lots of links on the story everywhere.

The Winnipeg Sun is reporting that several of the sailors were killed.

http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE62P30E20100326

Reuters is saying that the South Koreans are now saying that they are not sure that the North Koreans were involved. Politics!

Wikipedia says this ship, the Cheonan, named for a city in NW South Korea, was a member of the Pohang class of corvettes. Global Security confirms this. The Pohang class ships are about 290 feet long, armed with one or two 76mm guns, 2 30mm or 40mm rapid fire guns, and a small batch of anti-ship missiles. Mainly they are used for coastal patrol and anti-submarine duty.

These are not large ships, but they are still quite a bit bigger than the 165 foot motor gunboats pictured on South Korean television (see Yahoo News link above) and at the Daily Mail link Peiper sourced.

Stay tuned to this story. My guess is it will all blow over, and that the sinking will be attributed to some sort of accident, even though I think it was a mine that did her in.

UPDATE: That didn’t take long! Now the claim is the ship suffered a wardrobe malfunction accidentally set off some explosives onboard. Uh huh, right. Sure. Right off the Nork’s coast. I’m sure they were set off accidentally. By a torpedo or an anti-ship missile accidentally coming through the side of the ship and blowing up. Politics. Probably got a call from Obama who told them “not now dammit!” It’s such an obvious lie.

ON YOUR KNEES IN AMERICA AND KISS THE GROUND FOR YOUR GOOD FORTUNE. BE THANKFUL EVRY DAY.

They wouldn’t dare try this crap in the USA. Or would they?  I wish the heck they would.  It might be interesting to see what the reaction, and action, would be.
Perhaps it could trigger the final confrontation needed to rid ourselves of this virus in our own back yard. But it won’t.
Meanwhile, DO NOT place the blame on the muzzies. No,no.  They’ll go as far as the powers that be allow them to go. That’s the nature of the beast.  If there’s any fault, it’s with the BS diversity, left wing libtard, muslim apologists and sympathizers.  Do not blame the muslims.

Blame creeps like this bastard, this filthy lying SOB, this traitor and fugitive from a fetid swamp crawling with slime and disease. Blame ppl like this.

‘I’d rather employ a paedophile than a hero’: Company boss compares British troops to child molesters in rant at job agency

RANT SOURCE

I can’t wish enough bad things on that perv. I can’t even come up with swear words that fit the anger. I’d like to feed him to a pack of rabid wild dogs. No, that’s way too easy.  His comments are way beyond freedom of speech and expression.  It’s life forms like that, that in turn allow things like the following.

Defamation case over Prophet Mohammed cartoons ‘to be held’ in Britain

A Saudi Arabian lawyer has threatened to use British courts to overturn a Danish free speech ruling by bringing a defamation case over cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed that depicted Islam’s founder as a terrorist.

By Bruno Waterfield in Brussels

Faisal Yamani, a Jeddah based lawyer, is planning to take a case to London’s libel courts on behalf of over 90,000 descendants of Mohammed who have claimed that the drawings have defamed them and the Islamic faith.

Cartoon caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed were published in Danish newspapers in 2006 triggering violent protests across the Muslim world and riots which claimed the lives of over 50 people.

According to Danish press reports, the case can be heard in the Britain because the images, including a caricature of Mohammed with a bomb shaped turban, have been freely accessible via the internet.

Danish politicians and publishers are furious that European Union rules reward “libel tourism” by enforcing British defamation rulings across Europe.

Ebbe Dal, managing director of Danske Dagblades Forening, the Danish national newspaper association, is concerned that Britain’s tough libel laws could be used to restrict free speech in liberal countries such as Denmark.

“The Danish courts have decided that the case is not actionable and that we are allowed to print the drawings in Danish newspapers and websites,” he said.

“It would be very odd if a civilised country like Britain could go against that. If this succeeded we would have to pay a lot of money to Saudi Arabians misusing the British courts to make it difficult for freedom of speech.”

Mr Yamani demanded last year that 11 Danish newspapers remove all cartoon images of Mohammed from their websites and issue front page apologies along with promises that the images would never be printed again.

Only one newspaper, Politiken, agreed to the demand leading to the new threat of an expensive British court action backed by wealthy Saudi Muslims.

Lars Barfoed, the Danish justice minister, has complained to the European Commission that EU rules forcing Denmark to enact British court rulings would damage freedom of expression.

“It’s fundamentally reasonable that judgments in the EU can often be exercised across borders. But it would be taking it to the extreme if a UK court could rule against the Danish media and then require compensation and court costs to be paid,” he said.

EU officials have acknowledged that libel judgements in the British courts have become a major issue since “Rome II” rules on mutual recognition of European court rulings entered into force last year.

“We are well aware that there is a problem with libel and defamation tourism involving Britain, where judges can be sympathetic and damages awards are high. There will be a review next year,” said an official.

A British Ministry of Justice working group on libel law is expected to publish a report calling for reform later this month.

“The government is concerned about any potential chilling effect that our libel laws are having on freedom of speech,” said a spokesman.

RIGHTS OF A SERIAL KILLER AND THOSE WHO LOVE THE CREEP. IDIOT WHACK JOBS ALL!

With NO disrespect or insult directed at the ladies, I really do have to ask.

Why are so many women so crazy? Or are they only stupid? What little quirk or loose screw compels a woman to write love letters to a convicted serial killer of 13. That the authorities know of.

We guys know you glorious creatures laugh at our often times odd ball thinking.  We go off the deep end and make ourselves look foolish, often while trying to impress you.  You have favorite men jokes you exchange with each other and compare notes.  That’s due to us giving you the ammunition to start with.  However, it seems to be women or mostly so, who fall in love with killers.  I really believe that men no matter how macho in actual fact, might be frightened off by a women who it was found, really enjoyed stabbing ppl with screwdrivers and using hammers as an extra added touch.  Macho or not, men can be frightened with no loss of masculinity by a crazed person looking for a blood/kill thrill. But the ladies (some of them) seem to be aroused by psycopathic killers and want to marry them. I just don’t understand that. Especially when the killer in question has only women as his target.

The bastard I’m posting about here was (is) known as the Yorkshire Ripper with very good reason. A few of his victims survived with one now age 80, in a wheelchair since her attack many years ago.  We even heard about this creep in the USA.

Happily I can report that he himself has been attacked in prison and been stabbed in the eye and face on more then one occassion.  Good.  It’s fitting that he should have some idea of what it feels like.  Which brings us to the present where he now claims he is close to being cured and wants his freedom under some sort of human rights bs. Read the story.  It is very doubtful this slime ball will be free but his appeal is being funded by ... you get ten guesses coz this is a hard one.

But wait, that’s not all.  There is this from today’s Daily Mail.

He would have to convince a Mental Health Tribunal that he was sane enough to be moved from Broadmoor Hospital back into the prison system, then persuade the Parole Board he was safe to release.

Now guys and girls, how hard has it been in the past to convince the shrinks who are crazier or at least far less clever then the perps they let free to do harm again. And again. And again.

HUMAN RIGHTS OF A SERIAL KILLER

Sutcliffe is seeking to exploit a change in the law ordered by the House of Lords and the European Court of Human Rights.

Before 2002, the decision on the length of the ‘tariff’ to be served by a killer serving life rested with the Home Secretary. But in 2000, David Blunkett lost a court case brought on behalf of the killers of James Bulger, stripping him of the power to set the tariff of juvenile killers.

Two years later, the House of Lords ruled that adult killers had a human right to be sentenced by an ‘ independent and impartial tribunal’ - a judgment upheld in Strasbourg.

I’m sure you folks caught that. Right?  A judgment upheld in a place OUTSIDE of England.  And oh yeah ... things here must be in compliance with the European court of silly justice.  Damn fools. 

As a result, the tariff has been fixed by courts alone since 2003. Any killer convicted before this date has since been sent before the courts to have a minimum sentence fixed. Factors which can lead to a wholelife tariff include multiple victims and a sexual motive.

The fact that the Ripper was convicted of killing 13 women - and that his motive was sexual - ought to make him a near-certainty to join the 36 criminals in British jails told they will die behind bars.

Should the court opt for a 30-year tariff, then his sentence would be effectively served but this would not make him eligible for immediate freedom.

He would have to convince a Mental Health Tribunal that he was sane enough to be moved from Broadmoor Hospital back into the prison system, then persuade the Parole Board he was safe to release.

So now I come back to where I started. With women, both as lovers and victims. His former wife still visits him. And there’s this.

His wife Sonia divorced him in 1994. She went on to marry for a second time, although that relationship collapsed after seven years. Bizarrely she ended up moving back into the house in Bradford she once shared with the Ripper.

She has stayed on good terms with Sutcliffe and has visited him a number of times in Broadmoor.

Other women whom Sutcliffe did not know personally wrote him hundreds of letters. His cell is said to be festooned with pictures and cuddly toys send by his admirers. Women have been regular visitors and he has reportedly suggested marriage to several.

Artist Sandra Lester believed she had found love with Sutcliffe and moved house to be near him only for the killer to deny her visiting rights, telling the authorities he wanted to have many female friends and not just the one.

So then, due to his “human rights” he gets to make the calls while on vacation in hell.  I hope he ends up back in the prison system again as opposed to the hospital, where it is further hoped that someone else uses a screwdriver on him and removes his worthless being from those above ground.

PS:  We well know there are ppl who might respond to this post even though they have nothing at all to say. They just feel compelled to say something even if it’s nothing. Sad to see such desperate and lonely people here but if it helps in those hours of solitude to lighten the awful and painful burden of being alone and unloved and unappreciated and unwanted by the many, well.  I guess you can be our charity case so post away you poor thing.

justified killing of British troops in Iraq, believes al Qaeda is a “myth. not a problem lets talk

Up until a couple of years ago, or was it only last year? I forgot. No matter because the then top dog at the MET, the metropolitan police, was a man who claimed to be quite “proud” of being “politically correct.” When the new consrv. mayor of London took over after ousting a self confessed communist mayor, he threw the bum out. Hmm. Wait. This is England and generally they are somewhat more polite. The new mayor didn’t throw out Sir Ian Blair but he did allow him to quit the post.  That man was probably the very worst thing that has ever happened to the police of this country, and they still have not recovered.
When I took the morning papers off the chair on the front porch, about the first story that caught my eye today was this.

Sir Ian Blair signed a formal agreement with an Islamic extremist to treat him as the Metropolitan Police’s “principal” representative of the Muslim community, it can be disclosed.

By Andrew Gilligan

The activist, Azad Ali, was accepted by the Met as a trusted interlocutor. The force also agreed to give him information on forthcoming anti-terror raids. – Mr Ali has previously justified the killing of British troops in Iraq, believes al Qaeda is a “myth,” and has praised a key mentor of Osama bin Laden.

Mr Ali signed the deal, a copy of which has been seen by the Daily Telegraph, in his capacity as the then chairman of the Muslim Safety Forum – a body closely linked to the fundamentalist Islamic Forum of Europe (IFE).

The Muslim Safety Forum was set up, in its own words, to challenge the “unfair focus on the Muslim community when it came to policing activities and enforcement of anti- terror policing legislation.”

It was accepted by the police as a legitimate body. The agreement, dated December 2006 and personally signed by Mr Ali and Sir Ian, who was Commissioner of the Met at the time, states: “The Commissioner will recognise the MSF as the principal body in relation to Muslim community safety and security.”

Sir Ian or his deputy committed to meet Mr Ali and the MSF at least twice a year and to hold monthly meetings with the MSF at “New Scotland Yard or other suitable premises.”

The agreement says that the Met and MSF will “use the MSF as a consultation body to help formulate policy or practice.” and “progress an annual plan of work through agreed priority workstreams,” jointly led by Met and MSF representatives.

The Met also agreed to set up a four-strong panel with the MSF to offer the Muslim community a chance to comment on whether the information police had on a suspect was too flimsy and the consequences of a raid for community relations.

Mr Ali, one of the panel members, said at the time: “This will allow independent scrutiny of intelligence.”

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere
