An interesting suggested compromise to the “Palestinian question” came out during the week past. It would be to recognize the Palestinian state without granting it a seat at the United Nations General Assembly. The quirk would b…

Harper Valley: Stephen Harper’s Police State
Doesn’t HE look grand? From the first throws of holding office , Steve’s done nothing but a series of playing dress-up and enacting the game….only, in real life. So he’s made Canada a police state. My what fun, for him! Bullies don’t really have any concern about the people they’re hurting, the toxic […]
Blast Furnace Canada Blog: Unfunded mandate galore, courtesy the Fed Cons
No surprise that the Cons reintroduced, yet again, their “omnibus” crime bill. And no surprise, again, that the Cons refused to say how much it will cost to implement — much less if there will be any commensurate transfers to the provinces…

Yesterday morning’s explosive (pardon the expression) allegations by a former Mountie that the Swiss Air 111 crash in 1998 may have been a terrorist act and not an entertainment system gone haywire is something that absolutely has to be taken seriously…

So, exactly what kind of expertise are these ‘experts’ bringing to the FBI?”Mainstream Muslims are terrorist sympathizers’ and ‘prophet Muhammed was a cult leader’.That’ll enamor Muslims to the west! No wonder counter terrorism forces are so …

… waiting to get into my building. PSAC was having one of those controlled entry “job actions” to protest against a lack of progress at the negotiating tables. One of my ADMs was going up and down the line with Tim Bits telling us to relax and we’d be in the building soon. The Union […]

Today we stop and think of the people who dies 10 years ago in the terrorist attack done by 19 people that killed more than 3000 people, and also the people who stooped a plane from killing thousands more by trying to take control away from t…

Hmmm? Or someone trying to take the wind out of Obama’s big speech in a few minutes? Good luck with that. The President apparently plans to reveal his his package on nationwide TV, and according to Tim Geithner, it’s “substantial“. Could be a hard act to follow. (And people wonder why I find their politics […]
Red Tory v.3.0.3: The Terror Industrial Complex
Great story from CBC’s The National about the insane amount of money that has been spent post-9/11 on the secretive intelligence and policing apparatus to make America safe from demented cave-dwellers in Afghanistan, inept lunatics with explosive underwear, and suchlike … Continue reading →
Hellberta: Another sleepless night
It’s 3:45am. For the past week I’ve had a churning in my stomach I can’t shake, and with it I can’t sleep. So much is on my mind, but so much is always on my mind — why should this week be any different? So I’m going to just sit

10 years and 3 wars later with Osama Bin Laden apparently buried in the ocean many questions still remain about 9/11. For instance, if even 1% of the questions presented in the following presentations cannot be answered, then there is something the U.S. government has lied about. By the way, the

Just as former Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty — probably the only guy who’s close enough to the centre that he could actually beat Barack Obama in next year’s presidential race — withdrew his candidacy, current Texas governor Rick Perry announced he…

If what happened last weekend in Norway — the murders of 70+ people — were to happen here in Canada, what would our reaction be? Would we retrench and abandon our decades-old open door policy on immigration and adhere instead to a “Nativi…

just like how Love is blind so is extremism. Love is blind to race and gender, and Extremism is blind to race and religion The last tragedy that happened in Norway showed us that anyone can be an extremist and do many terrible things. Muslim…

At a simple ceremony at Oslo’s cathedral, a characteristically austere building surrounded by flowers and candles left by mourners, Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg seemed to express the country’s mood of defiant grief. “You should know that we’re crying with you. We feel for you… I am proud of living in a country that has managed […]

My condolences to the families of the 92 people killed in the Norway attacks. It is a horrible thing to kill children and terrible to kill fellow human beings in the first place.
News has come out that the killer belonged to party promoting intoleranc…

Now this is interesting … the “Canadian Transit Company,” which sounds like a coalition of the urban public transit providers in Canada but is in fact the Canadian face of the American-owned Ambassador Bridge connecting Windsor, Ontario with Detroit,…

The Republican Party is holding the United States specifically and the world economy in general, hostage. Obama, if he had any stones at all, should never have negotiated with them at all. He should have labeled them what they are, terrorists, and ref…
