Can you spot the difference? Cause I sure can’t
just in case you had any illusions that America was actually a democratic country which supports “human rights”
America can now imprison, torture and shoot American citizens at will:
http://www.counterpunch.org/roberts02102010.html
As our Founding Fathers and a long list of scholars warned, once civil liberties are breached, they are breached for all. Soon U.S. citizens were being held indefinitely in violation of their habeas corpus rights. Dr. Aafia Siddiqui an American citizen of Pakistani origin might have been the first.
Dr. Siddiqui, a scientist educated at MIT and Brandeis University, was seized in Pakistan for no known reason, sent to Afghanistan, and was held secretly for five years in the U.S. military’s notorious Bagram prison in Afghanistan. Her three young children were with her at the time she was abducted, one an eight-month old baby. She has no idea what has become of her two youngest children. Her oldest child, 7 years old, was also incarcerated in Bagram and subjected to similar abuse and horrors.
Siddiqui has never been charged with any terrorism-related offense. A British journalist, hearing her piercing screams as she was being tortured, disclosed her presence. An embarrassed U.S. government responded to the disclosure by sending Siddiqui to the U.S. for trial on the trumped-up charge that while a captive, she grabbed a U.S. soldier’s rifle and fired two shots attempting to shoot him. The charge apparently originated as a U.S. soldier’s excuse for shooting Dr. Siddiqui twice in the stomach resulting in her near death.
On February 4, Dr. Siddiqui was convicted by a New York jury for attempted murder. The only evidence presented against her was the charge itself and an unsubstantiated claim that she had once taken a pistol-firing course at an American firing range. No evidence was presented of her fingerprints on the rifle that this frail and broken 100-pound woman had allegedly seized from an American soldier. No evidence was presented that a weapon was fired, no bullets, no shell casings, no bullet holes. Just an accusation.

oh and read this about how the American army just shoots unarmed students ( of course they make a fuss when Iran just arrests students,) the incident is called the kent state massacre
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kent_State_shootings
Jeffrey Miller transferred to Kent State University from Michigan State in 1970. He was a smart kid and had many friends. When first arriving at Kent State Miller pledged Phi Kappa Tau fraternity and became a member. On May 4, 1970 he was shot and killed by an Ohio National Guardsmen in the Kent State shootings. Miller was part of a large group of unarmed students who gathered on the Kent State campus to protest the U.S. war efforts, especially the recently announced invasion of Cambodia. At some point the guardsmen became agitated and fired 67 rounds over a period of 13 seconds, killing four students and wounding nine others. There was a significant national response to the incident and many students all over the U.S. conducted a walk out and strike. Jeffrey Millers last photograph is truly a sad site. John Filo was on campus the day of the shooting and took some iconic images. One of them was the Pulitzer Prize-winning picture of a young girl screaming while leaning over the dead body of Jeffrey Miller. It is one of the most famous pictures in U.S. history and shows the realism of the event. Jeffrey Miller was a kind hearted passionate man who was murdered at a young age. I strongly feel that the final picture of Jeffrey is a fitting tribute to his life and has helped teach a generation about an important cause.

STOP F*****G BOMBING MY COUNTRY YOU F#####G BASTARDS!
I’m not a racist. I hate all the peoples of the world equally.
I hate the annoying Americans and the bloody British, the crappy Canadians and the dumb Danish, the effluent Estonians and the foul French, the grotesque Germans and the horrible Hungarians, the idiotic Italians and the jerk off Jamaicans, the knuckleheaded Koreans and the Ludicrous Lithuanians, the moronic Moroccans and the nitwit Nepalese, the oafish Omanis and the preposterous Portuguese, the quack Qataris and the rubbish Romanians, the silly Spanish and the twisted Turks, the ugly Ukrainians and the vulgar Vietnamese, the warty Welsh and the (there’s no country that begins with X, wtf? Xylophone?), the yucky Yemenis and the zitty Zambians.
Yes, I despise everyone regardless of race color or creed!
Obama is not black, he’s just a darker shade of white…
There was a time when the Arab world, and indeed the whole world was transfixed by a black man running for president. It was quite a novelty, a historical first. Could this really be happening? Had America finally changed? Had it buried the hatchet of a violent past and transcended it’s deep rooted, just under the surface racism? I’ll admit, I was taken aback by all this too, the cynic in me receded for a while and I was beginning to see a glimmer of distant light. All that changed of course, when I discovered that Barack Obama was white, yes white ….
As white as John McCain’s hair infact . So what gave him away? was it the utterly pathetic protestations he made every time a neo con alleged that he was a closet Muslim? well yes, that was a start, being offended at being called by your own middle name “Hussein”, and going out of your way at every opportunity to prove that you weren’t a no good terrorist moslem was a definite put off. But the straw that broke the democratic donkey’s back wasn’t that, it was something far more sinister. Seeing Obama assume the ass kissing poodle position, kneeling n’all at Aipac and in the Israeli Knesset, pledging his eternal obedience and loyalty to his Israeli masters and fervently denouncing the Palestinians they are oppressing, really drove home the point that Obama is no different than any other politician America has had over the last 60 years. The only change Obama is bringing into the WASP club of elitist American politics is a darker shade of white. That’s what Obama is, just a darker shade of white. And that’s only on the outside, on the inside he’s just as corrupt, power hungry and hypocritical as the next Washington hopeful.
You see black color is only skin deep. To be truly black you have to share in the collective culture, history and aspirations and ideals of the black community, and It’s very obvious that Obama does not. I’m not saying that you have to be radical, and I’m not saying that Black culture in America has an actual coherent political movement. What I’m saying is that the essence of Black American culture is the struggle for equality and rights, the struggle to overcome oppression and degradation, that’s the soul of the black American movement, and it certainly does not go well with supporting a fascist state, and denying an oppressed people their basic human rights. Oh but that doesn’t bother our miracle boy very much, he’s got way too many starry eyed naive college students willing to believe his crap about change we can be deluded into right now….. but the novelty will wear off soon when they discover that he’s just another puppet, then the buzz will turn to a low, and Barack Obama will become Barack Obummer.
It’s not a question of the lesser of two evils, It’s just as South Park puts it, American elections are always a race between a turd and a douche. I’m hoping the douche will win, at least he’s honest about being a war mongering geriatric Israeli tool.
You must have seen it on the news lately, white Australians protesting with not too well hidden racism against the building of a Muslim religious school.
Apparently they don’t want terrorists or “moslems” in their country. You can’t help but be impressed by the irony here. The descendants of murderers, rapists and thieves “don’t take kindly to your types round here”.
I don’t think the Aborigines took too kindly to white criminals being dumped on their land either, but that was before they colonized their country, confined them to “reservations”, and took away their children to teach them how to be “civilized”.
Indeed after decades of white criminal rule, the Aborigines became “really civilized”, having the highest crime, poverty, alcoholism, murder and child abuse rates of just about any group in any country in the world….
Bloody hell, the Aussies have almost knocked out the Americans for the number one spot in the hotly contested “Bastards of the year Award”…. stay tuned to find out who the winners are….
The prestigious “white bastards” award
Dunno, it’s not exactly a shocking revelation when we hear about a popular American cultural idol , in this case a Hollywood movie star, making a no no. Mainly because we have such low expectations of them in the first place, goes with the job doesn’ t it?
To be a Hollywood actor you’re expected to be extremely egotistical and out of touch with the rest of humanity. Add to that a compulsory IQ of 2 digits, and you’ve got the next big paris hilton/britney/crusie /(insert overpaid spoiled idiot here) kidnapping African kids/showing private bits/dancing on couches/(insert despicable act here).
Watching this video actually made me feel sorry for the guy. He’s so delusionaly pathetic, so childishly ignorant, that I wanted to pat him on the back and say “there there, of course the tooth fairy is an ancient sentient alien being, and mission impossible 3 wasn’t a huge flop”. Then I remembered how rich he was, and the string of gorgeous women he had married, and I stopped feeling sorry for him and started feeling sorry for myself.
Of course, I prefer being rational and having sound mental health to being very rich and hanging around awesome chicks…..still…..
anyways, here are the vids:
“May I taser him?”……. Then shortly after, 40 year old Robert Dziekanski was dead…
The video is quite disturbing, and you just can’t help but feel a mixture of anger, revulsion and sadness……
Sadness because this death was so unnecessary, and anger because this happened in a supposedly civilized country, at Vancouver International Airport, with a whiny ass Mounty asking his superior for permission to pass 50 thousand volts of electricity through an obviously distressed man, with the same childish attitude as a kid asking his mom for a new puppy.
The fact that Canadian police, being the unfacist, disciplined and modern professional police force that they are, added insult to injury and immediately put a spin on the incident, saying that the guy had attempted to attack them…….so they felt that the incident was justified self defense…
Of course, when the video of the whole thing was released, they quickly scurried off into a little hole, hid their heads up their asses, and stated that the matter was “under investigation”
Seems truly amazing to me, that in this day and age, in a supposedly civilized part of the world, there can be so little compassion, understanding, and just down right simple common sense and decency. I mean, the guy was a Polish immigrant who was flying for the first time, knew no English and had been stuck in an Airport terminal for 10 hours waiting for his mother to pick him up, with no one, not even airport staff or cops, offering to help. Wouldn’t you expect him to get a little frustrated? wouldn’t you expect him to try and draw some attention to himself?…. well the only way he could do that was by picking up some chairs and throwing them around….as obviously, no one at the airport had the intelligence to get a translator and find out what was going on……. much easier just to taser the bugger………….
Brilliant, half a dozen brave Candian Mounties, wet their pants and get scared shitless by a middleaged Polish man brandishing a “deadly” coffee table…..so they electrocute the poor bastard to death….
in the end, its:
Fascits: 1
Poor immigrants : nill

Blair announced that he’ll be buggering off this summer. Good riddance I hear you say…ah yes, but hold yer horses a minute, who’s going to stop Bush from bombing media stations? Especially a certain Aljazeera in Qatar, a country allied to the U.S.
No one? not even Gordon brown? A shame really, I liked Aljazeera, especially all the Jerry Springer stlye fights and verbal abuse in the debates programmes.
Oh well, it seems to be another case of “you never miss it till it’s gone away”. Bye bye Mr. Blair, we’ll miss how you steadfastly supported the U.S while it bombed people and invaded countries. Who can forget all the good times we had together? Iraq, Guantanamo, AbuGhreb, the C.I.A abductions and tortures….oh those were the times, we had so much fun. And now forever shall they be assigned to history, as part of your legacy to the world. A legacy of a shriveled pathetic man, who pursued his religious ideology with Machavelian zeal, to the point of murder and destruction, disregarding the wishes of his own people, and readily sacrificing their sons in a pointless war. Your average run of the mill despot I’d say, but chillingly reminiscent of his own sworn enemy, AlQaeda.
“Blair” ponder that word carefully…..say it again slowly, relishing all the sylables…. Bbbb-Laaaayy-rrrr …. what does it remind you of? don’t know? clueless? Here’s an interesting fun experiment you can try, turn on your tape recorder, and record the previous Bbbb-Laaaayy-rrrr. Now play it back to your grandma, or favourite relative, which ever happens to be closer, ask them what they think that sound is…..
9 out of 10 times the answer will be: ” sounds like a sick dog vomiting a turd it’s just eaten”…(the other 1 time your chosen relative would have been too deaf to hear it, repeat experiment and change relative).

Don’t bomb us please, Aljazeera staff say
