Recent events in Iraq, Denmark, Paris and many other countries demonstrate the power of conviction as a motivator for action. When that conviction lacks the mollifying factor of “perspective” it can motivate actions that are destructive for the person and the community at large. read full story / add a comment

Just when you thought the idiot President (Americans please note) couldn’t top his previous efforts at pure imbecility, he does it again! Bush, responding to the verdict handed down to small fry terrorist, Moussaoui, stated that, “Moussaoui got a life sentence, that means he will spend the rest of his life in jail.” [Doh!] Would the real leaders of the United States please show your faces because hiding behind this cretin is becoming tedious. We would all like to know who really is determining the course of the nation since the Zionists, Wolfowitz and Perle, have jumped ship. [Remember their (now failed) plan to safeguard Israel by duping the US into invading Iraq and eliminating Saddam after the missile attacks on Tel Aviv). Israel now faces a more horrendous nightmare as a direct result of the failures in Iraq. ‘O, what tangled webs’!] read full story / add a comment

The recent controversy concerning names not included on the voting register prompted me to ask how democratic are our elected representatives?
!. People can personate and vote more than once.
2.People who believe themselves to be registered are turned away from the polling booths or told their vote is in Tipperary or whatever and who go away without casting their vote.
Since fewer and fewer people vote and Governments are elected with smaller and smaller majorities then how many of us vote or more importantly don't vote for them.
Remember they make descisions that affect our lives from everything from how much you pay to get rid of your rubbish to how long you spend on a plastic chair in a hospital A & E not directly mind but by not providing enough money for those services.
So Don't whinge and decide I won't vote because they're all crooks (I'm sure a lot of them are) But then VOTE AGAINST rather than for.
If you are dissillusioned with a particular party or individual politician don't just not bother to vote VOTE AGAINST them.
Vote for any independent candidate or party standing agaimst them.
Vote for the guy standing on the pot holes or the lDog poo on the street ticket, vote for the person in the Gorilla suit but VOTE otherwise the people who want the current policies of Look after the Rich (Mainly the Rich themselves and some poor fools who think being able to put a deposit on a crumbling pile on the Costa Brava puts them in the Bill Gates bracket) They will romp home again for another constipated five years of more of the same so
Get Registered and VOTE AGAINST. Try it it's more fun than you think. read full story / add a comment

Its not just Gerry Adams who gets inconvenienced by No Fly notices. As you can see below many Military officers and officials with top level clearance are also getting caught by the US No Fly list. Great to know that intelligence is an alien concept in Washington DC.
