Who’s Surprised???

I saw three of these this morning and the other two a couple of days ago.  The title just popped into my head and seems so appropriate.  Hey, really, who’s surprised to hear about this?

Let’s start with this little gem: investigations notwithstanding, UN peacekeepers are STILL abusing women and girls in the Congo. Yessirree, Bob, the agency the rest of the world insists we trust with money to help tsunami victims still has employees raping and abusing victims of life’s tragedies.  Pray tell, with that sort of track record, what assurances do we have this is not occurring in Indonesia, India, and other countries slammed by that wall of water?

Our next nugget is this one:  in typical bureaucratic fashion, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention is blaming a computer error for overstating a nationwide obesity problem.  So, for readers like Tubino who love our social government systems so much, are you beginning to get a clue as to why I do not trust government figures for social security?  I do not give a flying fuck if it is not broke yet, that there are enough workers paying in to support those taking out, that no changes need to be made.  I do not trust anything I get from entrenched bureaucrats and their lackeys in the media who kiss their ass and carry their water.  I want my money to be MINE!  Then if the systems falls apart, it’s no sweat off my brow.  If it does not, then I will still have more money then those who were too scared or incapable of handling their own finances.

Moving right along: I’d have never guessed!  Not in a million years!!  The United Nations funds terror! **GASP!!  NO!!! Not the UN!!”

donations of between $4,000 and $10,000 went to the Tulkarm Charity Committee and the Jenin District Committee for Charitable Funds.

Of course, since this is being alleged by a former Israeli ambassador to the United Nations the media will portray it as nothing more than a Zionist plot to suppress “freedom fighters.”

It gets better: The colonel who gave Clinton a deferment is dead. This is not what we should be surprised about.  We all die, after all.  But I wonder how many newspapers will carry what Colonel Holmes said about Clinton’s motives:

``I believe that he purposely deceived me, using the possibility of joining the ROTC as a ploy to work with the draft board to delay his induction and get a new draft classification.’

Lastly I give you this offering: A Palestinian movie producer admitted that a film made in which Israeli troops are portrayed as committing war crimes in a refugee camp were untrue.  He went on to say that:

his documentary, which was screened in theaters around the world, was financed in part by the Palestinian Authority.

So, who’s surprised?  Go ahead, raise your hands.

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

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.
