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?
