Online This Morning
Bits of fluff and stuff from the ‘net
- Santorum Takes 3 Red States. Good. At least they can spot the closest thing to an actual Conservative.
- The future of the military? Obama’s favorite weapon system is a pneumatic marshmallow shooter.
- California, crazy as ever. Court to decide if SeaWorld critters are slaves. After this, all the chickens will be issued Che Gueverra berets and we’ll have a poultry revolution.
- Don’t you hate it when folks adhere to their stereotype? If only she’d been driving an Escalade and was named LaShanda it would have been 100%. Toddler with gun, Mom busted.
- No evidence, no favoritism, no rape charges. Charges dropped against Fox News anchor who is NYPD Commissioner’s son.
- “Halftime in America” ad controversy deepens? Gosh, I guess I have more in common with Karl Rove than just the hair style and the weight problem. Turns out the Superbowl ad was put together by Obama supporters. I didn’t see Obama’s pre-game speech, and I didn’t even know of the controversy until yesterday afternoon, but I saw the ad at halftime and said “damn, this is a push to re-elect Obama isn’t it? After all, the government owns Chrsyler, and I refuse to believe Detroit is on much of a comeback. They may have slowed their vertical descent into Hell, but that’s all.” I didn’t know that O’s minions seized the ad theme either, until this morning. And now we find out a bit about the art team behind things. OTOH, a) what artsy types aren’t Obama supporters, and b) is their work really all that good? Here’s two of their “famous” Obama creations, which I had never seen before this morning:
top:
a) Obama the Great Uniter, or a pointy headed geek who’s half this and half that?
b) Also, the image looks too much like a famous credit card, and look at how the public debt has been run up. Priceless!bottom:
a) Think this one through: the Obama sneakers say “A black man runs and nothing is behind him.” We know all about Obama’s record before his election, and no truer words were ever imprinted on oursoulssoles!
b) Given that a huge part of the population thinks this guy is at least a maybe-muslim, and what we know about them and shoes, isn’t it a major insult to be slapping his face to the pavement with a sneaker at every step?
looks like a double double backfire to me
Update: Looking at a larger picture of those sneakers I realize that the one says “A black man runs and a nation is behind him”. Which brings to mind images of angry villagers with torches and pitchforks, doesn’t it?

The BBC (radio) I became familiar with as a kid in CT., USA, sure isn’t the BBC of today. Of course, nothing is the same as it was in late 40s and 50s.
But this descent into madness and pc is a mindblower.
I only have minutes to spare and being rushed as we have to go into town very early.
I HAD to boot and pass this on as soon as I brought in the paper. The headline screamed insanity at me and I knew this must be shared.
No doubt LyndonB has seen this and may even as I type, be pulling out what hair he has left if he has any. Along with lots of others here.
You will recall a post with this vermin only yesterday.
Well take a look at this from the morning paper.
BBC tells its staff: don’t call Qatada extremist
The BBC has told its journalists not to call Abu Qatada, the al-Qaeda preacher, an “extremist”.
By Neil Midgley and James Kirkup
In order to avoid making a “value judgment”, the corporation’s managers have ruled that he can only be described as “radical”.
Journalists were also cautioned against using images suggesting the preacher is overweight.A judge ruled this week that the Muslim preacher, once described as “Osama bin Laden’s right-hand man in Europe”, should be released from a British jail, angering ministers and MPs.
Adding to the row, Kenneth Clarke, the Justice Secretary, yesterday insisted that Qatada “has not committed any crime” and said his release has nothing to do with the European Court of Human Rights.
A British court has called Qatada a “truly dangerous individual” and even his defence team has suggested he poses a “grave risk” to national security.
My wife is pulling out her own hair and having a serious temper tantrum.
I am out of time, car in driveway and engine running. Later.

RCOB Moment
Give me a little while to write this post. In the meantime, dig the One World Socialist claptrap at this link. Maybe the Constitution isn’t as popular around the world as it once was because of the global rise of tyranny and theological despotism? That the rest of the world is sliding away from freedom even faster than we are? But no, let’s not look at that. Let’s regurgitate the Obama “fundamentally flawed” horse apples line.
‘We the People’ Loses Appeal With People Around the World
[some academic study was done comparing every constitution written from 1946 to 2006 with ours. Most were really close to ours until 1980, but it all went to hell after 2000.]
“The turn of the twenty-first century, however, saw the beginning of a steep plunge that continues through the most recent years for which we have data, to the point that the constitutions of the world’s democracies are, on average, less similar to the U.S. Constitution now than they were at the end of World War II.”
There are lots of possible reasons. The United States Constitution is terse and old, and it guarantees relatively few rights. The commitment of some members of the Supreme Court to interpreting the Constitution according to its original meaning in the 18th century may send the signal that it is of little current use to, say, a new African nation. And the Constitution’s waning influence may be part of a general decline in American power and prestige.
Gee, that’s just peachy. We’re losing all our power and prestige ... by never letting our military achieve decisive victory, weak-willed foreign policy, and apologists for leaders? Heck, who needs enemies when we’ve got our own Supreme Court?
In a television interview during a visit to Egypt last week, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg of the Supreme Court seemed to agree. “I would not look to the United States Constitution if I were drafting a constitution in the year 2012,” she said. She recommended, instead, the South African Constitution, the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms or the European Convention on Human Rights.
Is this shriveled up old eugenicist commie still with us? Can’t we fire her for this kind of attitude?
But the Constitution is out of step with the rest of the world in failing to protect, at least in so many words, a right to travel, the presumption of innocence and entitlement to food, education and health care.
It has its idiosyncrasies. Only 2 percent of the world’s constitutions protect, as the Second Amendment does, a right to bear arms. (Its brothers in arms are Guatemala and Mexico.)
Now we come down to it! The universal red agenda, and the media’s permanent unwillingness to understand the 10th Amendment. Or the 1st for that matter. Or the 2nd. Or the 3rd, 4th, 5th, ... . “the right of the people peaceably to assemble” does not say where does it? Because it can be anywhere, which means you can go anywhere to do that. Ipso facto, the right to travel.
Presumption of innocence? The 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th Amendments are all about citizen’s rights before, during, and after trials. Half the Bill of Rights focuses on that one aspect, that most of us will never have to contend with. The 5th utterly puts paid to that “missing a presumption of innocence statement” for anyone who can actually understand what they are reading. No, it isn’t spelled out in those exact words, but you can’t get Due Process, no self-incrimination, the necessity of a Grand Jury, etc - in other words, the whole damn 5th - without it. Perhaps the world needs Reading Comprehension 101 instead of Our Annual Constitution 3.12.b? Nor should we forget that this document was written by white people descended from those who came here from England. English Common Law, The Age of Reason, and all that Natural Philosophy stuff. All of it common knowledge at that time. And that right is enshrined there, which any literate person then knew, or any literate person could know now if they made a bit of effort to learn ... because the socialists that run the state run, unconstitutionally federally funded school systems aren’t telling you.
Entitlement to food, education, and health care? Crivens. No, you’re NOT ENTITLED to any such thing in this country, at the federal level. See the catch? These are States issues. Moreover, in a truly free country, it is your right to starve, your right to be stupid, and your right to die of whatever disease you wish. The free citizen is a responsible one, not a line shuffling drone of the state looking for yet another handout.
So, if ours sucks so much, and is so out of step with the times, and so irrelevant, who’s is the model to follow? Why, Canada’s! That great socialist going-nowhere nation to the north. Holy cats.
Can we get a single lick of common sense in this article please?? Please???
… there is more to a constitution than its words, as Justice Antonin Scalia told the Senate Judiciary Committee in October. “Every banana republic in the world has a bill of rights,” he said.
...
“Of course,” Justice Scalia continued, “it’s just words on paper, what our framers would have called a ‘parchment guarantee.’ ”
Antonin Scalia, FTW, gold medal. Cut through all the BS and get at the truth, John Bolton style.
If you would like more refutations against this kind of leftist drivel, read this page that covers all these “missing” parts and more. They also have a pocket Constitution for $5, in case you lent yours out. I bought one because I had to stop and look up a couple of Amendments to verify that I had the wording right. I ought to be able to quote it all, chapter and verse, and rail on by the hour on what each and every part means.
This post is for you Mr. Woods, wherever you are. (he was my 11th grade teacher for Constitutional Law, the hardest class in my high school. And just about the only one that really mattered in the long run)

Not that anyone is surprised.
H/T Stonegate
British Muslims Try to Ban Negative Reporting of IslamHudson New York 7 February 2012
By Soeren KernA Muslim activist group with links to the Muslim Brotherhood has asked the British government to restrict the way the British media reports about Muslims and Islam. The effort to silence criticism of Islam comes amid an ongoing public inquiry into British press standards following a phone-hacking scandal involving the News of the World and other British newspapers.
The Leveson Inquiry, established by British Prime Minister David Cameron in July 2011, is currently considering how to increase government oversight of the British media.
But in a move that many worry will result in government regulation of the Internet, Lord Justice Leveson, a British judge who serves as Chairman of the inquiry, now says he wants to include Internet bloggers into any system of press regulation that he proposes.
Observers say the Leveson Inquiry’s effort to regulate blogging, combined with the Muslim attempt to ban negative reporting about Islam, poses a clear threat to free speech in Britain.
Appearing before the Leveson Inquiry on January 24, Muslim activist Inayat Bunglawala said the amount of negative stories about Muslims in Britain is “demonizing” Islam and fuelling a “false narrative.” He called on the government to do all it can to “ensure a fairer portrayal, a more balanced portrayal of the faith of Islam” in the British media.
In a separate written submission, Bunglawala complained about the “enormous impact of coverage that is proven to be inaccurate, inflammatory, prejudicial and detrimental” to the representation of Islam in Britain.
He continued: “British Muslims as a social group collectively suffer from poor media practices, whether this be the excessive attention granted to fringe Muslim groups, like Muslims Against Crusades, by the media or poor fact-checking prior to publication. Improving media practices and media responsibility on portraying and reporting fairly on Islam and British Muslims, without bias or discrimination or intent to incite anti-Muslim prejudice, is an urgent concern.”
British Muslims as a social group collectively suffer from poor media practices
Oh right. No bout adoubt it.
Like when some grizzly bearded scummy creeps carry signs saying, “Behead those who mock islam.” Or that by now brilliant classic, “To hell with democracy.”
Or issuing death threats to writers of books that most muzzies never even read for themselves. Death threats against cartoonists. Threats against the very culture and countries where they settle and accept benefits. Poor media practices. Right. Like reporting on the ban on Rushdie just recently in India, which prevented him from attending a book fair due only to fear of muslim reaction. With good cause one might say because his life was threatened if he tried to attend. Yeah, all that bad press is unfair. Why, those mean and nasty Brit newspapers reporting on the muslim gangs targeting white girls for forced prostitution. (Eastern European mostly gypos do the same and recently have been found to be taking homeless off streets and shippling them to eastern europe and placed in forced servitude.)
Forget that what they do produces the kind of coverage given the vermin.
Anyway, it’s all Bush’s fault. Or the Jews and their Christian friends.
Meanwhile, most ppl have already given up on the hope (misplaced) that there might be a large moderate muslim protest rally against the terrorists.
There could be hope of course as it’s rumored that one moderate muzzie was found hiding under a bed. The location is secret as death threats have already been reported and protest posters being prepared in the event this moderate is found. Alive.
OH! And let us not forget the twisted thinking that produces ‘honor killings’ as a normal way of dealing with family issues. Or in fact, sees honor in murder.
Lets not report all that as it might create the correct impression of a stone age religion and way of life that militant islamists will force on the globe if allowed.

Permalink • A POLITICALLY CORRECT MILITARY ?
This article shows you what a politically correct culture will lead to.
Living here as I do, and with an army training base hidden behind many trees and high hedges and a chain link fence just at the end of our road, and often seeing young fellows (and some not so young) running up a steep hill in the summer in full uniform, sometimes with packs on their backs, and having read Brit history and still do, and having military news in our papers all the time, it might be fair to say that I am quite pro military and always have been impressed with their history.
What I see happening here as you will read below, is I am sure taking place in the USA as well. Damn shame that.
And no Thatcher or Churchill to save the day. No Truman to authorize the use of the bomb. No Teddy wielding a large stick or a Reagan to unite most of us.
Tell the truth.
Do any of you see things getting any better in your lifetime?
Hero Para faces £250,000 court martial for punching Taliban PoW as he fledLegal experts believe there is no chance of conviction
Friends of unidentified soldier slam case as ‘absurd’
‘Waste of time’ says Tory MP Patrick MercerBy IAN DRURY
A paratrooper with an unblemished service record is being hauled through the military courts for punching a Taliban member who was trying to escape.
Astonishingly, the case is going ahead even though the Afghan captive has refused to make a formal complaint, and there are no other witnesses to the incident.
The case is estimated to have cost the taxpayer £250,000 already and threatens to plunge the Forces into a new row over political correctness.
The soldier, known for legal reasons as Corporal C, hit the insurgent once in the face believing he was trying to flee during a firefight in the badlands of Helmand Province.
British military prosecutors admit that the captive, Ahmed Wali, has provided evidence that is ‘unreliable’.
But the Service Prosecuting Authority refuses to drop the case and has charged Cpl C – described as a man of ‘impeccable character’ – with assault. He is due to appear at a court martial later this month.
But his legal team has made an application to the High Court for judicial review of the decision to prosecute him in an attempt to have the case thrown out.
Last year three judges, who were asked to review the evidence at the Court Martial Appeal Court in London, expressed concern about the case and branded it ‘unfortunate’ saying it was a ‘large hammer [to deal] with a relatively minor matter’.
Legal experts believe there is no realistic chance of Cpl C, 31, from Glasgow being convicted because of holes in the SPA’s case.
The soldier risked his life serving with distinction in Iraq and Afghanistan with the elite Parachute Regiment.
His name is being kept secret because he served alongside special forces.
Cpl C, who quit the forces in disgust at his treatment, was a qualified tactical questioner with the Paras when the incident happened in March 2010.
He was commanding a joint British and Afghan patrol which set up a vehicle checkpoint in Nahr-e Saraj, a Taliban stronghold strewn with deadly roadside bombs.
The patrol stopped a motorbike carrying two Afghan men who were acting suspiciously.
As an Afghan National Army soldier approached the men, the rider pulled out a pistol and pointed it at him. The gun-wielding insurgent was shot dead, while his pillion passenger, Wali, was taken to a nearby compound.
Cpl C began to interrogate Wali – who denied he was a Taliban member – despite the ‘real threat by small arms and improvised explosive devices (IEDs) to the patrol’.

Permalink • The Midnight Sun Scenario…
The Coming of the New Ice Age.
I know, those of us who where around in the late ‘70s know that global cooling was the culpritl The point that Zombie at PJ Media makes is that the left’s solution is the same:
The fact that the media and popular culture and academia have veered from one panic-inducing disaster scenario to another one which completely contradicts the first one is funny enough in its own right. But reading The Weather Conspiracy: The Coming of the New Ice Age opened my eyes to an even more significant aspect of this serial crisis-mongering:
The “solutions” prescribed to solve both Global Warming and the looming Ice Age are exactly the same.
In both cases, proponents of the theory-du-jour say that in order to stave off disaster, we must reverse the march of civilization, stop our profligate use of carbon-based fuels, cede power and money from the First World to the Third World, and wherever possible revert to a Luddite pre-industrial lifestyle.
If you want to voluntarily be a Luddite, fine. I’m actually trying to do the same thing. PERSONALLY. I’m not advocating that anyone follow my example… I just want to have a garden, cook my own fresh breads, and, if there weren’t actual laws against it, have a few chickens in the backyard. That probably screws the Luddite goal because more people baking their own bread, more people using their own ovens, oh dear, we can’t have that!
Oh, wait, do current Luddites like Al Gore follow their own teachings? I doubt Al Gore could cook pancakes from scratch,. Just had to throw that in…
No, I’m just trying to simplify my own life and cut household expenses. What YOU do is your choice. And it certainlhy should not be the government’s business.
Zombie goes on to cite an old 1961 Twilight Zone episode, The Midnight Sun:
The scenario we’re in reminds me of the classic Twilight Zone episode called “The Midnight Sun”: At first we see the characters sweltering in increasingly unbearable heat as the Earth, knocked out of its orbit, slowly plummets into the sun. Just as they are all about to burn to death, in typical Twilight Zone fashion, the lead character wakes up — she had in fact merely been having a fever dream about the world getting hotter; in reality, the Earth had been knocked away from the sun, and they’re all going to freeze to death. Ha ha — gotcha!
Just for fun, I found that 1/2-hour episode and I’m posting it in full.

Damascus? Don’t Ask Us!
Will the last one out please turn off the lights and lock the door?
Not a good sign boys and girls.
The United States has whisked its remaining diplomats out of Syria and suspended operations at its embassy in Damascus as violence there continues to increase, U.S. officials told ABC News. The skeletal staff, including Ambassador Robert Ford, departed quietly despite in some cases being denied exit visas by Syrian authorities, the officials said.
“The recent surge in violence, including bombings in Damascus on Dec. 23 and Jan. 6, has raised serious concerns that our Embassy is not sufficiently protected from armed attack,” State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said today. “We, along with several other diplomatic missions, conveyed our security concerns to the Syrian government but the regime failed to respond adequately.”
Today’s move comes after the Obama administration says its requests to Syrian authorities for increased security around the American embassy and its diplomats fell on deaf ears. The embassy is situated on a busy intersection in Damascus and officials say they feared al Qaeda elements, which are believed to be behind a string of car bombs in the Syrian capital, could target the Americans next. They had requested that the street the embassy is on be closed, but nothing was done.
The embassy had already been targeted by a pro-Assad mob last July after Ambassador Ford defied restrictions on his travel outside the capital and visited the restive city of Hama. Some in the crowd scaled the outer walls of the embassy and defaced the exterior, including the American flag, before being chased away by embassy guards.
The U.S. embassy, like other diplomatic facilities there, is guarded by Syrian security forces. U.S. officials say they were slow to respond and accused the government of sponsoring the protest.
The Syrian government’s crackdown on the movement to oust President Assad has become increasingly bloody in recent months. The United Nations stopped counting the dead late last month, saying it was too hard to keep up with and verify the body counts. At the time it placed the death toll at more than 5,400. Since then there have been reports of hundreds more killed.
Opposition elements have also stepped up efforts to fight back, raising fears that the once peaceful movement could evolve into a civil war.
“could evolve into a civil war”?? If you make a bit of effort to look just a little beneath the headlines it is pretty obvious that it already is a civil war. Or at least a religious one.
Against Syrian anger, Assad’s Alawite Muslim sect feels fear
Opposition leaders, some of whom have taken up arms in an increasingly violent confrontation that has killed more than 5,000 people in 11 months, mostly dismiss suggestions the revolt is destined to divide Syrians along ethnic and religious lines.But millions are incensed by the killing, arrests and torture unleashed last year by the Alawite-led authorities against demonstrators, including women and children, who confronted them in mainly Sunni cities like Deraa.
In a country which has seen refugees stream in from the sectarian blood-letting in Iraq in recent years, and where Assad and his late father are widely perceived by much of the 75-percent Sunni majority to have heavily favoured the once scorned Alawites, the language of religious hatred is growing louder. Stories of reciprocal atrocity are gaining currency.
For the Alawites, who identify their faith as a variant of the Shi’ite Islam practised in Iran, long a close ally of Assad, the rise in the ranks of the opposition of the Sunni Islamist movement the Muslim Brotherhood and other conservative Sunnis who accuse Alawites of heresy is a particular cause of anxiety.
And we all know just how tolerant and forgiving Islam can be, right? As in, Not One Jot. Not Ever.
If you’re having trouble keeping the players straight without a scorecard, just know that the mad mullahs in Iran are supporting Assad and his sect, while Al Qaeda is supporting the Sunni sect. Isn’t that great? Two terrorist groups at odds with other in somebody else’s country. I’m certain that will have a peaceful resolution, right? Once again it looks like the seeds planted in the Arab Spring are only growing a crop of thistles.
Communal support for Assad invokes not only the fear of reprisal, but the historic marginalisation of Alawites from the centuries of Sunni Ottoman rule down to the emergence of Assad’s father, Hafez al-Assad. He took power in 1970 and died in 2000.
Before the Assads, Alawites say, they were treated routinely as second-class citizens, discriminated against and deprived of holding senior posts in the government.
Looks to me like they hate each other just as much as they hate us. Jizzlam comes in several distasteful varieties, and it seems that each of those has a few variations within it. And nobody gets along, and they all hate each other, and will all jump at the chance to kill each other off.
“So before I was nine I had learned the basic canon of Arab life.” says Ishmael, “It was me against my brother; me and my brother against our father; my family against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe; and the tribe against the world. And all of us against the infidel. “
Leon Uris, The Haj
PS - at first I thought it was a bit odd to name a religious sect after a fish. Just a little mental dyslexia there. “Alawhite” not ”Alewife”. Guess that one was a red herring.
PPS - Oh, and should [when] the long knives come out and Assad topple and the ethnic cleansing begin, guess who will be taking in the wretched refuse refugees, even though they are their mortal enemies with whom a state of war still exists? Israel of course!
Israel is making preparations to house refugees from Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s minority Alawite sect should his government fall, Israel’s military chief told a parliamentary committee today.
“On the day that the regime falls, it is expected to result in a blow to the Alawite sect. We are preparing to take in Alawite refugees on the Golan Heights,” a committee spokesman quoted Lieutenant-General Benny Gantz as saying.
Assad has faced 10 months of popular revolt in which more than 5,000 people have been killed, according to United Nations figures. Israeli officials have said they do not expect his government to last more than a few months.
How do you say “brain fart” in Hebrew??

Permalink • some vermin, their history and their human (?) rights
The links are provided should anyone want to read the full stories. You’d think we’d all be tired of this kind of thing by now. Well, yes. It is about the same old same old. But ..... it’s happening right here and it’s on going. Emotions run the gamut from concern to fright to downright anger. And of course frustration.
Lots and lots of that. Seem Europa and it’s union and too many Brit lawyers and civil rights types, are very concerned about the rights of the vermin shown here and less about the right to life of the many victims these bastards would enjoy taking away. And in the most horrific manner they could arrange.
Terrorists may be mad dogs, they may want to return to the dark ages, they are filthy, grubby and unwashed looking creeps.
But they most certainly are not stupid. Well not all of them are. But even the dumbest among them doesn’t require a degree to turn himself into a flaming bomb at the behest of these scum. They know how the west works (and doesn’t work) and how to use the western system against itself. They are smart enough for that. And those who aren’t have smart lawyers clearing a path for them. And not only that. How’s this strike you?
Here’s a story regarding a group of MPs (Members of Parliament).
MPs visit Abu Hamza at Belmarsh to canvass his views for a report. He is referred to respectfully throughout as ‘Mr Abu Hamza’ Here’s a guy who says that it’s perfectly okay to kill anyone for no other reason then they aren’t muslims.
These animals shouldn’t be given refuge anywhere and when caught should be deleted with extreme prejudice. And fuck the ass-wipes at the Euro-pee-on court of human rights. Deleting them might not be a bad idea either.
Here’s some quick snaps for you to look at and think about. You should you know. After all, you are all on their murder list. And these vermin are only three.
SubHuman Vermin #1 for your consideration.
Abu Hamza
It took years to jail him, but now MPs visit Abu Hamza at Belmarsh to canvass his views· Al Qaeda is trying to recruit female suicide bombers in Britain, MPs warn
· Internet often to blame for radicalising extremists, report warns
· Select committee blasted by family of 7/7 victim for interviewing hate preacher Abu Hamza
By JACK DOYLE
A group of MPs who visited hate-preacher Abu Hamza in his jail cell have published his views in an official report.
Members of the home affairs select committee went to high-security Belmarsh prison to interview the cleric who was jailed after telling his followers that the murder of non-Muslims was justified ‘even if there is no reason’.
Their report on violent radicalism is published today and includes an uncritical summary of Hamza’s comments. He is referred to respectfully throughout as ‘Mr Abu Hamza’.Families of terror attack victims condemned the committee and its chairman, Labour MP Keith Vaz. Graham Foulkes, whose 22-year-old son David was murdered in the Edgware Road bombing on July 7, 2005, said the visit was ‘deeply inappropriate’.
He said: ‘I think what they are doing by visiting him in jail is legitimising his claims and his beliefs, which are to kill and maim men and women and to destroy our society.
‘The worrying thing is that as a result Hamza will tell his followers, “Look, they are taking me seriously”.’‘A substantial number of terrorist attacks at home and abroad have happened because of Abu Hamza.

Saajid Badat
‘Shoe-bomb’ terrorist to be released from jail on opening day of the Olympic GamesBy EMMA REYNOLDS
The notorious terrorist who plotted a shoe-bomb attack on a plane is to be freed from jail just hours before the Olympic Games begin.
Saajid Badat’s release will only add to security fears at the high-profile event in London, which opens on July 27.
The 32-year-old was jailed for 13 years in 2005 after conspiring with two other radical Muslims to blow up a passenger jet - but he will be released after serving just eight years and eight months.
The religious teacher from Gloucester admitted to conspiring with Brit Richard Reid and Belgian terrorist Nizar Trabelsi to blow up flights to the U.S. in 2001.
But now he is due to be freed two-thirds of the way through his sentenceon the official opening day of the biggest sporting event in the world, according to the Daily Mirror.
People are furious this guy is being released on that day but it’s just a quirk of fate,’ said a security source.He had even booked a ticket for a flight from Amsterdam to the U.S., but he had a last-minute change of heart and never boarded the plane.
His fellow plotter Reid was overpowered by fellow passengers on a flight from Paris to Miami while trying to detonate the bomb in his shoes, and is now serving a life sentence in America.
and our last subhuman of this group.

Abu Qatada
Osama Bin Laden’s ‘right-hand man in Europe’ Abu Qatada could walk from prison today despite being ‘extraordinarily dangerous’
Lawyers are arguing he should be released on bail after being held for six and a half years
By CHARLES WALFORD
Hate preacher Abu Qatada could today walk free from prison to a life on benefits with his wife and five children.
Qatada, who has cost the UK taxpayer more than £1million in benefits, prison and legal fees, is currently being held at Long Lartin high security prison in Worcestershire after breaching previous bail terms.
British diplomats continue to seek assurances from the Jordanian authorities that evidence gained through torture would not be used against him.
The issue was the key reason why Qatada won an appeal to the European Court of Human Rights last month.
The judges ruled that sending Qatada back to face terror charges without such assurances would deny him his right to a fair trial and be a ‘flagrant denial of justice’.
Mrs May vowed that Qatada, who has been held for six and a half years, would be kept behind bars while she considered all legal options to send him back and the Home Office said he ‘poses a real risk to national security’.
But Qatada’s defence team convinced an immigration judge to release him at a hearing in central London.

Superbowl
Woo hoo!!!!! This was not your daddy’s boring old Stupor Bowl.
Guess I’m not the only one looking up intentional grounding. The ever-helpful Google brings it up as choice #4 as soon as you type “inten”; by “intent” it’s #2. The rule makes sense - duffing the ball isn’t going to save you in a pinch - although the various exceptions are a little hard to follow. Football has so darn many rules and they change every year. Makes it difficult sometimes for all but the most dedicated fans.
Dirty tricks as strategy? In a possibly brilliant move, with just seconds on the clock, the Giants “accidentally” had an extra guy on the field. The penalty forces the failed play to get a do-over, but doesn’t reset the game clock, and thus the Patriots got screwed out of nearly a dozen valuable seconds. Naughty! Look for that one to change next year perhaps? The time should be put back on.
This was my first Superbowl with an HD TV. Lots more to see than what they show on regular TV, but I came away with the feeling that the viewing experience was being intensely managed. This was a very rough game, a grudge match. You noticed how many injuries there were? But with HD I saw the eye pokes, the punches, the kicks, the extra knee kick to the head on the tackle, and all the other nasty details you can’t see on plain TV. I noticed at least 3 times a bit of a fight start up after a tackle, and the camera cuts away just as the refs start to run in to break it up. Late in the 4th Q there was a quarter second shot of one of the linesmen sucking down oxygen for all he was worth. Oops, shouldn’t show that either. Instant cutaway. And never a single cheerleader. Phooey.
On the advertisement front, my wife sees the Adriana Lima Kia spot and goes “H*** S***!! I want that outfit!!” I kinda just sat there drooling, but told her to get the shoes too. I think that’s my pick for best ad. It was such an over the top guy fantasy it could’ve been an Old Spice commercial. On second thought though, watching the extended Lima only version above, I’d choose better shoes.
Sorry, I had to pull the video. It was making the page load too slow. Google up “Kia Adrian Lima” and you’ll find it everywhere else.
Overall? Probably one of the best football games I’ve seen in a decade, from the opening sacks right through to the last chance win-or-die Hail Mary pass as the clock ran out.

Silly me, I thought this had something to do with new muzzie converts going all Sudden Jihad Syndrome. Nope, that’s another psychotic ailment entirely.
It seems that a dozen or more girls at Le Roy High School out in western New York (Genesee County) all developed some kind of neurological tic this fall. CDC looked into it, and found no disease vector, allergen, toxic, drug, insect, or pollutant cause. And thus we have a new ailment. Can’t wait until it gets used as an excuse for murder or mayhem in a court of law. Oh come on, that was just me being sarcas-tic.
Conversion disorder made the headlines Friday as the New York State Health Department released its preliminary findings regarding 12 girls in LeRoy who have been diagnosed with the disorder beginning late last year. It was also announced the doctor treating the 12 cases had potentially identified at least four more in the last two days.
What is conversion disorder?
According to the Mayo Clinic, the diagnosis of “conversion disorder” was originally conceived as a term to describe a physical health problem that has its roots in a mental or emotional crisis. A person who is diagnosed with a conversion disorder typically cannot control the physical manifestation of the mental or emotional crisis in question, and cannot control the physical symptoms that result.
Conversion disorders are usually fairly temporary, although while the person is suffering from one it can cause severe difficulties and distress. Symptoms typically include sudden limitations or changes in either a person’s physical movement or one or more of their senses.
How is it treated?
CNN reports there are a range of treatments available. Because the root causes are stress-related, treatments often center on counseling of some kind. Anti-stress or anti-anxiety medications might also be temporarily given. In cases where the physical manifestations of the disorder are particularly troublesome or limiting, physical therapy may also be prescribed, and hypnosis and even magnetic stimulation of the brain may be attempted as therapy to aid an afflicted person.
Significant life stressors were identified in 11 of the cases. Eight of the cases were diagnosed as conversion disorder by the primary treating physicians and pediatric neurologist; three cases had preceding medical illness associated with tics, and one case did not seek medical attention.
Which is really saying that being a high school girl can be stressful. Yeah, and?
Maybe we should call this Mean Girls Syndrome, and find out if the 12 in question had been subject to bullying or excessive social pressures. But it’s good to know the government sprang into action, tested anything and everything, ruled out all sorts of toxins, bad food, local superfund sites, drug abuse, and so on. A+ for effort; they gave it a big Dr. House try. And came up with nothing.
Western NY is an unusual place. Lots of odd and unique things have happened there in the past. Mountains and lakes that used to be the seashore, long ages ago. Salt mines. Deep beds of natural gas and frakking. This is the land of Joeseph Smith and the Second Great Awakening (19th century Religious Revival). It’s the land where Free Love and Communes were first tried 150 years ago. It’s where the Women’s Suffrage movement started out, and where the Underground Railroad had its terminus. It’s where modern camera film was invented, and the propane torch. And Genesee Cream Ale, one of the thinnest beers going, that keeps on selling decade after decade. I’m not at all surprised that something new and mysterious has come up there. I’d like to say it’s something in the water, but CDC has ruled that out.

Today’s Day By Day cartoon over on the side bar is really great. Pretty subtle (aka like a brick upside the head) but things become clear once you see the bumper stick at the end.
But for all you old guys, or you students of comic strip history, the 2nd panel looks awfully familiar.
Some memes are just too good to let go of. Nice work Muir.

Some of you may not keep track of things of this nature and normally I don’t either.
It just so happens however, that for some odd reason I remembered Hitler’s birthday.
Not mind you that I celebrate the date.
The other birthday (my wife aside) that I have always remembered is the birthday of a woman who I had the longest crush on and used to call her Your Highness whenever we met. That would be Loretta Lynn, April 14th. I used to celebrate that date.
When I was a DJ, I hosted a large party at a local restaurant in Paducah, Ky., even though Loretta wasn’t in attendance. But her record company gave me lots of help with free give aways etc. So anyway …. this post isn’t about her and I don’t mean to use her noble self on the same page as AH and hope is does her no harm.
I’m only saying those are the dates I remember with no prompting
The Hitler date has a bit of a story and while I suppose I can understand the folks who questioned having a concert to celebrate Wagner on the same date as the birthday of AH, I think to cancel a concert just because he liked Wagner and a concert was scheduled on that date, is just plain silly. And pc I think.
I am not a fan of opera. I don’t understand it and had to put up with a lot of it as a kid, as my mother was a huge fan. So I heard it a lot and never much liked what I heard.
I belonged heart and sole to Benny Goodman and Artie Shaw and Bix and the Firehouse Five etc.
But who am I? If even Hitler loved Wagner …. ???
Well, as it happens, Berlin’s biggest opera house, the Deutsche Oper, has been forced to backtrack on plans to stage a re-launched version of Adolf Hitler’s favourite Wagner opera on the Nazi leader’s birthday. April 20. I honestly think we can be sure, in light of present day German laws, that the director of the opera house had no intention of celebrating that date. He’d have risked jail were it intentional. The date was pencilled in far in advance, the director says. With no thought to the date as anything other then just that. A date on a calendar. But because AH was a very large fan of Wagner and especially of the one scheduled to be performed on the 100th anniversary of the opera house, it was decided to change the date least the wrong people see it as something else. And of course, in case anyone might become offended.
OK, so what other events in any other part of the world might be considered a no show day in case the date should fall on the birth date of some infamous historical and criminal character?
Jeesh.
Cheers and enjoy what’s left of your wkend. I’m off but decided to leave you with this bit of unrelated to anything except the appeal. And nope. Don’t know her b. day. Does it matter? Didn’t think so.

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:
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
- Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
- Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
- Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
- Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

Oh, and here's some kind of visitor flag counter thingy. Hey, all the cool blogs have one, so I should too. The Visitors Online thingy up at the top doesn't count anything, but it looks neat. It had better, since I paid actual money for it.
