A lovely, thought-provoking post by Ol’ Remus, over at Eternity Road

Just spoke to him and apparently he’s being released from hell any day now. I know I’m not alone when I say it’ll be good to have the grumpy bastard back with us!

‘…During the EDL counter-protest at the US Embassy (where the poppy-burning ‘Muslims Against Crusades’ were mourning the death of the world’s most notorious terrorist), an EDL division leader held aloft an effigy of Bin Laden.

Opposite the contingent of EDL supporters, hundreds of radical Muslims were promising that Islam will one day dominate the world and that the freedoms we enjoy today will be a thing of the past. Their confidence in their cause, and the knowledge that the government remains clueless about how to tackle this threat, was no doubt a powerful recruitment tool for the next generation of radical Muslims and potential homegrown terrorists.
What was the police’s response to the protests? You guessed it, they arrested the EDL supporter and charged him with a section 5 for causing ‘offence’.

Celebrating the death of a man who was responsible for the deaths of thousands of innocent people, and whose name exists as a rallying call for anti-Western radical Muslims worldwide, is offensive, but calling for the downfall of freedom and democracy, and mourning the death of such a monster is not!?..’   source

Is there any doubt at all that the Brit police are acting to protect muslims- at the expense of traditional freedoms?

‘PUBLIC schools across Sydney are experiencing a “white flight” of students.
Anglo-Australian parents are choosing to enrol their children in private schools over public because there are less children from migrant backgrounds, a new report by the University of Technology Sydney, based on data from the My School website, claims.
The western suburbs has the lowest number of Anglo-Australian students, accounting for as little as 2 per cent of enrolments in some schools.
Dr Christina Ho, a UTS researcher in multiculturalism, said public schools had become increasingly viewed as being “ghettoes” by many Anglo-Australian families.
“If you have a school that is 98 per cent or 97 per cent migrant-background kids, and hardly any background Anglo-Australians there, then that is a ghetto that doesn’t reflect the diversity of the society we live in,” Dr Ho said.’

This is how a culture commits suicide. And I just love the “less children from migrant backgrounds” line….that’s code for “less muslim assholes who make life miserable for the Aussie kids”.

‘A Tucson, Ariz., SWAT team defends shooting an Iraq War veteran 60 times during a drug raid, although it declines to say whether it found any drugs in the house and has had to retract its claim that the veteran shot first.
And the Pima County sheriff scolded the media for “questioning the legality” of the shooting…’
UPDATE: (thanks Darin)
‘….The sheriff said the decision to use SWAT team force was justified because the father was a “self-proclaimed constitutionalist” and had made threats and “comments” over the years…’

‘Lawmakers largely silent on war powers authority in Libya
By Mike Lillis and John T. Bennett – 05/20/11 05:58 AM ET
U.S. operations in Libya hit the 60-day mark Friday, but Congress has grown largely silent on the administration’s unilateral intervention into the war-torn North African nation.
The 1973 War Powers Act (WPA) — the statute President Obama invoked when he launched forces in March — requires presidents to secure congressional approval for military operations within 60 days, or withdraw forces within the next 30.
Congress did not authorize the mission — which includes a no-fly zone, bombing raids, a sea blockade and civilian-protection operations — but the deadline has stirred little sense of urgency on Capitol Hill. ‘

A perfect demonstration of the arrogance of the Chosen One and the supine cowardice of Congress. Is there now any limit to the Kenyan’s power?

‘..And, I would add, in the final analysis territorial imperative is first and foremost a survival trait that is hard wired into our genes. It has been dormant here for several decades but it is stirring, and it is a ferocious beast when roused. We are long in these parts, they have been purchased for us with the blood and sweat of all our generations, the same blood that binds us now and makes this land our land, a land the muslim barbarians must never have but as a grave…’
