Story finishes off by saying the guy is on 20 thousand pounds per year in benefits. That would be 30 plus in salary pre tax

WTF!!!

No wonder the country is in such a sorry state - we must be the only country in the world who pay our terrorists a living wage, while they plan their outrages.

Sounds like typical anti-Islamic pro-Imperialist propaganda to me.

1. For calling anyone who is against us "extremists".

2. For not calling people like George Bush "extremists".

3. For not pointing out the Billions that George Bush & his friends & family will get in "Benefits" once US hegemony is assured in the middle east & Western Business interests are served.

what really shocks me, is that most of the bears on this forum understand how the media uses weird slanting, poor facts, or just outright misdirection to ramp housing, but they totally fall into the "BBC WOULDN'T LIE" camp when it's any other topic.

we are at war to a degree, you can expect a lot of demonization.

Judging by recent threads about the unemployed and those on benefits, there are some posters on here that seem happy that folk like him aren't forced to work. Wouldn't want him to be a slave now would we?

Now if he was a Public sector worker, they'd hate him with a passion.

At least the last time we were engaged in a war where the mainland UK was threatened, we had the sense not to import more of them during proceedings.

The figure quoted isn't unrealistic, especially when compared to the amount paid to our own particular brand of workshy scum. Perhaps of more interest was his status as an 'unemployed charity worker' - it'd be enlightening to find out who he was working for.

Also, wasn't the brainwashing of his five-year-old interesting? Worth remembering that whilst you're convincing your kids that Santa exists there are people in the world who are teaching theirs to hate you.

It reminds me of the words to a R&H song from 'South Pacific'.

Cable:
You've got to be taught
To hate and fear,
You've got to be taught
From year to year,
It's got to be drummed
In your dear little ear
You've got to be carefully taught.

You've got to be taught to be afraid
Of people whose eyes are oddly made,
And people whose skin is a diff'rent shade,
You've got to be carefully taught.

You've got to be taught before it's too late,
Before you are six or seven or eight,
To hate all the people your relatives hate,
You've got to be carefully taught!

Actually its not. Its conspiracy to commit murder. If they carried it out it was premeditated murder - or whatever we call that here. By justifying it as 'war' you put yourself in an odd position... if its war then their actions are morally justified, just as us lobbing a 500lb bomb into a market place is justified. Far better that its not war, and we treat them as simple criminals. By recent historical showing, particularly simple.

It's part of a far greater ideological struggle. Their actions are not justified as they carry out their actions whilst not in uniform which makes them spies and subject to summary execution in my book.

The idea of kidnapping a soldier and then executing him on video is also contrary to the established rules of war. Captured soldiers are entitled to POW status.

Deliberately lobbing a 500lb bomb into a market place with the intention of killing civillians is not acceptable whether we do it or they do it.

You know what they say don't you; Ask the experienced rather than the learned!

I think we could expand on the saying and state that experience is better than someone which theorises or doesn't actually have experience of the situation they are commenting on.

But how can someone be an 'idiot' if they have experience of the situation or issue under discussion? unsure.gif

Surely you are contradicting yourself with those comments?

Hi Claw,

I got a leaflet through my door from the BNP regarding the coming local mayoral elections in May.

Its literature is quite graphic you know! Islam does seem to feature quite heavily in the leaflet. What's your take the leaflet Claw (If you've seen it of course)?

RichB, This is a forum for debate, you were asked a simple non confrontational question!!! Apart from calling everyone Idiots your only other contribution to this thread is to imply that "We" bomb innocent people on a daily basis.

Don`t just coward away as this will prove the point correct in that you are a leftie who only chucks in shi11y comments on the sly.

I've not seen it. Upload it lets have a look.

IMHO Islam is a very dangerous alien ideology. I say ideology as opposed to religion because it provides a comprehensive explanation for the world and a prescribes a complete system of governance, taxation, jurisprudence, warfare etc etc

I suspect the BNP are targetting Islam because it is such a massive threat and because it is something the electorate can relate to. Also the anti free speech race relations laws makes it very difficult to speak plainly about mass immigration. Banging on about "darkies nicking our jobs, raping our women and spreading aids" is likely to get you locked up.

Actually it was a response to a personal attack in the previous post.

Once the situation deteriorates into attacks on personal politics theres sod all point in trying rational debate. These discussions have been gone through many times on these boards, and it always ends up with rabid ad hominem attacks that simply make the whole board look a bit silly.

I suppose that was aimed at me because I called you a leftie?

If your stance is left of centre then that is what your view is referred to surely? As I know that I hold Neo Con views hence I would be referred to as a Neo Con on certain issues.

Also it was YOU which called people 'idiots' (which you then expanded on), erm, not me. dry.gif

Living on edge of greenbelt now but when I do go back for the football I do get a pang of nostalgia, soon evaporates when I realise all my old boozers have gone.
Also, like planes trains and automobiles just getting there now and usually find some twit as offed himself on the district line which delays me even more. Very late 30`s for me, actually tipped into 40. Still large pockets of England outside London, but for how long sad.gif ..... I am just gonna keep moving down the line.

Just out of interest, why do people of left-wing persuasion use the word "rabid" to describe " the other side". I have seen it so often on internet forums, it just makes me wonder why they feel justified in doing this.

The picture is of a foaming-mouthed, crazed dog, yet the most vitriolic attacks I have received from I/N posters, have come from left- wing supporters, usually when I have differed in some way to them, and not necessarily about politics.

It do make one wonder, why those who rejoice in the title 'liberals' are a bit too liberal when it comes to abuse.

then also give you around 60pw pocket money.

you can also scam travel fares and bits and bobs.
not sure if its 20k, but it beats a lot of non jobs./
