David Cameron - Right or wrong to blame Pakistan?

David Cameron - Right or wrong to blame Pakistan?

Another good question to debate.


Lets look at the facts.

Most Pakistanis are Muslims and believe the Quran, their Islamic holy book similar to the bible in many aspects, states it a sin to kill.

Many Pakistanis abhor the likes of terrorists, fighting as al Qaeda. It's all down to religious teachings and interpretations, of course. This is the problem.


Jesus said "He who is with out sin, cast the first stone"; after all!
Yet Christianity had 9 crusades to kill anyone who wasn't a Christian and stamp its will on other religions.

Muslims too, did the same, and Jihad was born. Mohammad conquered Arabia and North Africa with the same intent.

Jihad meaning a few things.
1)Islam. An individual striving for spiritual self-perfection.
2)Islam. A Muslim holy war or spiritual struggle against infidels.

So you can see where the confusion comes from.
Spiritual learning, or a fight to oppress others not of your religion to bend them to your religion.


We both came to the conclusion that having one god was better than multiple gods as in ancient antiquity. The funny thing is they are basically the same doctoring; live peaceful, good lives being kind and social to one and other.


Now David Camerons comments have caused a bit of a brouhaha in political circles.

IE, Pakistan isn't doing enough to control this terrorism and seems to be turning a blind eye to it, as many of the terrorists are trained in the mountains inside the Pakistan borders.

It is a true statement, but misguided as it is only a "small" minority who are turning this blind eye.


Pakistan fought on the British side in World War Two, out of a sense of loyalty.
Christians and Muslims on the same side this time, fighting for good against evil, and freedom from oppression.
We are treating a majority of people the same as the minority here and that's wrong.
Pakistan forces fighting against this terrorism have lost twice as many men as Britain in this fight, and all life is precious as I believe we only get one good go at living it.


So come on David wake up. Think about what you are saying, and then double check and then say things tactfully! Being a politician, you have now opened yourself up to attack from the "sensitive" egos in the Pakistan government, who are out to score cheap points.


Does this mean you will now think about cutting the aid to these people who really need it, especially after the monsoon rains have caused disease and desolation for so many, just to punish a few? Just to put pressure back on them? Questions questions - It's all political intrigue . . .

Raoul Moat - Hero or Villain?

Raoul Moat - Hero or Villain?

A very good question.
The vast outpouring of sympathy for this man and all the people coming out of the woodwork to say what a great guy he was - after he was dead though - makes me sick.

Here is a guy who, with malice in his heart, shot his ex-girlfriend deliberately with a less powerful shotgun charge so as to maim her so she would get compensation from the victims support!
He shoots her boyfriend three times. Once when he checks out if Moat was outside.
The boyfriend manages to stagger inside and call the police on his mobile and is then shot in the chest, and then Moat walks up to him as he is almost lifeless on the floor, and shoots the boyfriend in the head for the third and final killing blow.
No open casket for this victims mother to grieve over!!
Then, Moat drives about town shooting anyone he thinks wronged him, and any other bystanders who just happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time!

His brother who has been estranged for the last 20 odd years, then has the gall to blame the police for supposedly pushing his brother to suicide after hours of armed standoff !?! Made up bunkum.

Moats history before was he was a violent thug who beat up men and women, and had a raging temper due to substance abuse.

It was his own body building excess and his own choice to take the drugs, so lets not feel sorry for this blot on society!

Wake up and smell the roses, please!

He is only a hero to the blinkered narrow minded idiots of society who cant judge whats obviously right and wrong in the world. A man who cant settle his grievance with his fellow men with out the need to use physical violence is better off not being in society.

Society - what does it mean then hey?
1)a body of individuals living as members of a community; community.
2)the body of human beings generally, associated or viewed as members of a community: the evolution of human society

Moat never fitted in with this at all in my book and I find it offensive that anyone can take his side in this matter after what he did.

Two Muslim Mothers. . . Joke

I know its a joke, but what with all the suicide bombers in the press recently and the misery it caused.
It would be funny if it wasn't a waste of lives. Their own, and the others, and the damage they cause their fellow man.
Religion created more dead bodies than all the world wars!

Anyway here is the joke:-

Two Middle East mothers are sitting in a cafe chatting over a
plate of tabbouleh and a pint of goat's milk.
The older of the mothers pulls a bag out of her purse and starts
flipping through photos, and they start reminiscing.

'This is my oldest son Mohamed. He would be 24 years old now.'
'Yes, I remember him as a baby', says the other mother cheerfully.

He's a martyr now though' mum confides.
'Oh, so sad dear' says the other.
'And this is my second son Khalid. He would be 21.'
''Oh, I remember him,' says the other happily,
'He had such curly hair when he was born'.

'He's a martyr too' says mum quietly.
'Oh, gracious me ...' Says the other.

'And this is my third son. My baby. My beautiful Ahmed.He would be 18', she whispers.
'Yes' says the friend enthusiastically.
'I remember when he first started school'

'He's a martyr also,' says mum, with tears in her eyes.

After a pause and a deep sigh, the second Muslim mother looks wistfully
at the photographs and says...

'They blow up so fast, don't they?'

The Pope hides kiddie fiddling

Well I haven't been around much the last year so missed out on ranting about the various Government crisis/Bank melt down/Government expense scandals etc.

But thought I would start off with a good one to get everyone agitated and thinking about stuff again.

The church. What does it stand for? Well its obvious it doesn't stand for morals and justice and protection of the young and innocent.

How so, you say? Whats our ranting nutter on about this time, you ask?

Well its come to light there is yet another sex scandal in the Catholic church.
Yep we had the Irish church fiasco a while back where the old fathers went off to happy retirement after all the child sex abuse and paedophilia. Well I say happy retirement, but I hope they burn in hell for what they did.
They were eventually found out and made to take the consequences (well the church was) as a lot of the perverted old duffers were long dead.

They cant suppress this sort of thing coming to light again, and it has done so with a vengeance with consequences that will affect the Pope this time.

Seems "His Holiness" and I say this very tongue in cheek here, led an investigation of an American priest involved in sexual acts with his congregation. He was only a Cardinal at the time, but appears that the whole thing was hushed up and glossed over like they always do.

Now "if the Meek are to inherit the earth" right, surely they need someone strong and just and righteous to protect them and help them along? Surely these meek people cant be calling on the Church then, as they want to hide all this stuff?

So much hypocrisy and so little time to write about it.
The Catholic church has shown less than a liberal attitude to homosexuality, but seems to want to hide abusing choir boys. This is Paedophilia which means the child has not reached a sexual age of maturity!

This seems okay in the churches eye, as they want to cover it up then? Retire the priest off and hush it all up. "Lets not tar ourself with his brush"; "it will affect the congregation and they will stop putting their cash on the plate"; "bad for business" etc etc

Guess they don't believe in right and wrong anymore. Protect the weak and the innocent is fine unless it reflects badly on us, then cover it up.

Bloody hell, the Church seems to be taking a leaf out of the UK Government these days! Or is it the Government taking a leaf out of the Church?

Islamic protest at the home coming of Britsh Soldiers.

My rant of the moment is the gallant return of the Anglian regiment to Luton and the disgusting abuse the Islamic extremists hurled at them.


The regiment has had a hellish time, being shot at and bombed, all to protect a population from tyrants and despotic leaders who although a minority party in Iraq, led the country and oppressed the other 60% of the population.

The Anglians lost quite a few men to aide this country. Our government sent them to a war zone and they went because it was their job, not because they believed it was the right or wrong decision of our government.


As a democratically run country with the freedom of speech we have, it is the protesters right to protest. But what really got my goat was the women all dressed up in their black sacks and veils participating. Burkas they may be called, but I say they are oppression sacks! Perhaps they should look to their own before casting the first stone. How hypocritical for these people to slander the British Army as murderers of women and children and rapists of infant girls! They still oppress their women, and in my opinion, more than likely brain washed and force them to participate in rallies like these.


The army is split into battalions and then further down into units of men of about 20 or 30 to go on patrols. These men all swear to protect and serve the nation when they enlist. The army instills discipline in their soldiers. It roots out hot heads so 99.99% are descent people who follow the rules. The rest go to the Glasshouse and are discharged.

We follow a predominantly christian religion and it is incredible to me that these small intimate units of men would knowingly rape and kill when there is no need to kill. I am pretty sure that there is no cover up here. The reason you ask?
Ever told a secret to someone? How long before it came out? Yes. If there was any raping of 4 year old girls, out of disgust to the fellow who would do such an evil thing, this would never be tolerated and swept under a carpet. It is all lies and propaganda to besmirch a regiments reputation.


Now lets go back to the swearing an allegiance when these men and women enlist in the army.
Now I have been lucky in my time to see friends of mine be sworn in as British Citizens. They all swore an oath to protect and serve the UK and to follow the rules of the land. Yes they went through the legal channels to become legitimate British Citizens.

Where is this loyalty to the UK now from the extremists, I ask you? Did they leave it on the bus after they became a citizens of the UK?

Oh. So they were born here?
Okay. If they were born here, why are they protesting about a country they never intend on going to visit? Take the protest up with the Government. Stand outside the Houses of Parliament. It's their right. Protest to Brown and his cronies, not to a regiment that is just relieved to come home to see their loved ones.




In the country their mothers and fathers and grand parents were born, there was no tolerance for such dissent. They have a right to protest but have done this to the wrong people. These extremists only want is to antagonise and be seen on the TV and national papers. Why waste the column inches on these people when that's what they want?

VAT Cuts

Gordon Brown has decided to drop VAT to 15%.
He wants you to spend your money to help get his badly situated economy out of the mire.
How? Haven't we all borrowed to excess in the last decade and run up enough debt?
2.5% Vat cut. Big deal. Food, children's clothes, books, newspapers etc are mostly exempt or zero rated. You will only save a little on the Fuel bills you pay. Now has anyone noticed the catch? Unless you spend a vast amount, ie you have money to spare, you will benefit, but if you have little money to spare, your Xmas presents will cost a little less, but will you be tempted to spend?
The aim is to stimulate the economy just enough to keep us all employed and paying tax.
Well it's Tax what will go up when he decides to up the VAT again and then repay the GBP12 billion he would have to borrow extra, to pay for the initial VAT drop.
Gordon then gets a double whammy of tax. Your Income tax will have risen and the VAT is up to boot.

Well it seems the plebeian majority are finally listening to their conscience.
They now seem worried the economy may actually already be up "Canal De Merde" and don't want to get their hands dirty on the smelly end of the paddle. They are starting to save their money. Sorry Gordon. Not quite what you envisaged.

As the numpty Mr Darling has already borrowed GBP 70+Billion to prop up the banks and the salaries of the incompetents,spin doctors and the muppets of the Department of Stupidity and Red Tape, I can only envisage a massive rise in income tax. Next year he intends to borrow a further GBP110 Billion. He will do this by issuing Government Bonds and Securities and pay interest to the people who take up these issues. It will mean that he will be taxing you to pay for the interest payments to the pay back to the Bond holders, or he will forever be issuing new bonds to cover the old.

What a prudent Chancellor should have done Gordon, would be to save some funds. Put it away for a rainy day. But he didn't. Well the rainy day is the global recession brought about due to Sub Prime greedy bankers, who lost the plot and forgot that some people just cant afford houses.
Now they have no interest from the mortgagees to pay on to the bond holders of the bonds the bankers issued, to get more money to lend to more poor people to buy more houses.
It's a vicious circle.

The Bankers forgot what would happen if people couldn't repay the initial interest. People/Pension Plans/Other Banks pull out of the bond, eventually causing panic and creating a run on the banks. That's why the governments of Europe and the USA are guaranteeing banks now, as they cant afford to have a recession like the 1930's.

The UK Government are so desperate that interest rates could soon be cut to zero. Then there will be competition to sell goods as shop keepers try to tempt custom just to stay afloat. People will always hold off for a better price, and this creates negative inflation ie things get progressively cheaper, in the fight for custom. This will mean that the global economy actually will be like it was in the 1930's, the thing they are trying to avoid.

The UK isn't in the best position to prevent this. It's Government has borrowed way to much in the past. It is suffering from already low interest rates. It has said it will increase it's big projects to stimulate jobs, and will spend its way out of the recession. Well it's hands are tied as the normal tools to cut a recession are to cut interest rates, and borrow to spend on economic projects. As I say, it has to issue Government bonds to pay for this. It has technically borrowed so much, and has had to prop up the banks it cant let fail, I cant see who the hell can afford to buy these bonds. The interest rates on these bonds will probably be better than you or I can get for our cash sitting in our current and deposit accounts in our banks.

If it was yours or my company that was doing the same, we would already be bankrupt and living in a cardboard box under Blackfriars Bridge.

Somewhere along the line someone will realise that you cant spend what you haven't got.
We will then be stuffed with increasing interest rates to prevent spending, and higher taxes to balance the books and then it will all come around again in another 30 odd years.

Knife Crime.

When I was a lad a penknife was used to cut names in trees, peel and core apples, or to sharpen pencils. Yep that's right we used it as a tool. It didn't even enter our heads to walk up to someone, pick a fight and stab them with it.

It seems this day and age a penknife carrier is a criminal. But surely it's the man or woman behind the knife and how he uses it that makes the criminal?

There have been 20+ knife stabbing/killing crimes in the last few months.
So I say this. All the politicians on the TV who try to show the stabber the damage done to the stabbed in hospital, it's a bloody joke, pardon the pun.
A victim is never going to want to see them! They may want to take some revenge too, so who ever thought, I know, lets bring them together again, is plain stupid.

Now I bash the Americans and their stupidity quite a lot, as they seem to do stuff that only suits themselves. But the mayor of New York which at the time was quite a nasty area, brought about a zero tolerance plan. Three strikes and you get locked up for ever. That was just for minor petty crime! You get life and sometimes death for the bigger crimes.

So to the idiots Hazel Blears the one time Secretary of State for Communities and now Deputy Leader of Labour, and Jacquie Smith the Home Secretary come on TV stating there is a knife problem and it isn't easily fixed. COMPLETE CRAP!

They both "don't want to walk the streets at night because they feel unsafe", yet they have a police escort and bodyguard. So if they don't want to walk about with guards as protection, is it any wonder youths carry weapons to protect themselves?

Whats the solution? Zero tolerance. Carry a weapon with intent, and I mean here if you belong to a known gang culture, you get 5 years minimum prison sentence. Lets not pussy foot around.
If you are walking home at night and you have a knife on you and you aren't camping, that also means to me you intend to use it as protection or for force and you also get the sentence.

Killers whether using guns or knives should be hung.
There is an exception here. Sexual abuse and prolonged bullying in marriage or relationships where you snap and kill does not fall under this category.
Where there is unequivocal evidence and eyewitnesses, then hanging must take place to be a deterrent.

Victims have lost their rights in favour of the criminal.
So Blears and Smith, it is easy. Stop bullshitting the journalists and trying to become little media Divas. Amend the legal statutes for quick convictions when there is overwelming evidence. Lock people up for longer. Bring back Hanging. Set up a Zero Tolerance policy and stick to it.

GET SOME DECENT JUDGES THAT ARE IN TOUCH WITH THE EVERYDAY PEOPLE - NOT FROM CLOUD CUCKOOLAND - as an example, why lock up a shop lifter for two years, when you can kill a family while being on your mobile, whilst driving a car, and yet get a smaller sentance? Sentances dont seem at all comparable for the crimes caused. For one, say you took a pair of socks. The other is blatant negligence when in charge of what can be a lethal weapon in a poor drivers hands.

You may even want to use the dreaded common sense approach, which we seemed to be losing in this day and age.

I say a victim has the rights and the criminal loses theirs! If a criminal breaks into my home or vandalises my property, I should be allowed to defend it and myself with as much force as I deem fit to use, because the criminal should not be there in the first place! If I stab him, I am with in my rights to, only because he was doing something he shouldn't be doing.

Of course any out of normal hours calling at a house, with reputable people, they will knock at the door, and, or telephone you. So don't attack the postman just for giving you your gas bill. . .
