Fox: 'We're not going to leave' Afghanistan in 2015

Defence Secretary Liam Fox says large numbers of UK forces "may or may not stay in Afghanistan" after the end of "official" combat operations.

Liam Foxes message is what is called "mixed signals" showing infirmity of purpose, self-doubt while hinting at ultimate defeat and national humiliation, which he wishes to deny until it is in fact practically impossible to do so.

If I were the Taliban I would be insisting on unconditional withdrawal while staring fixedly at the British invader.

It is only a matter of time before the British look down, burst into tears, and run away with their tails between their legs.

They can't take any more of dying for Israel, Bush, Blair, Brown and Cameron in a cause that is clearly against their national interest, can they surely?

They are not that strong anyway but are they really that stupid to keep taking the casualties for such a dubious cause as Neo-Connery?

Neo-Conservatism is nothing more than the US going around behaving like a bull in a china shop, with the British poodling along while the rest of the world vows terrible vengeance.

If only the British would realise that such blind adherence to an ignoble tradition of canine servility is not in their best interests, particularly when the Americans will soon run out of credit and goodwill.

In the meantime the war radicalises its significant Muslim population who are doubtless plotting more 7/7s, driving the police into a frenzy of over-surveillance, racial antagonism and the passing of liberty-killing laws that will affect non-Muslims too.

The trouble too is that the non-Muslims who hate the war hate Muslims more than they hate the war.

They are also very sentimental and treat Remembrance Sunday like a sacred national ritual when it is in fact nothing more than a dreary annual act of remembering death and defeat, while refusing to deal with present realities. It would appear that the British are keener to remember their dead soldiers than strive to prevent further pointless sacrifices of life and limb in their currently live soldiers.

Such is the sentimentality, mawkishness and irrationality of the typical Briton that there is no reasoning with him.

We should not underestimate the stupidity of the people or indeed of our government. Against stupidity the gods themselves contend in vain.

Americans wising up to the Israel lobby and their Neo-Conning?

Spelling and grammar a little uncertain and many placards with many grocer's apostrophes, but it is certainly a rainbow coalition.

Neo-Conservatism = how to behave like a bull in a China shop

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neoconservatism

the "main characteristics of neoconservatism":

• "a tendency to see the world in binary good/evil terms
• low tolerance for diplomacy
• readiness to use military force
• emphasis on US unilateral action
• disdain for multilateral organizations
• focus on the Middle East
• an us versus them mentality".

Here are mine:

1. How to Lose Friends and Alienate People
2. How to Behave Like a Bull in a China Shop
3. How to make 9/11 happen
4. How to embark on the 21st century equivalent of the Peloponnesian War that ruined Athens
5. How to bankrupt yourself while making everyone hate you
6. How to threaten to nuke people at the drop of a hat. Neo-Cons constantly talk about Muslim extremism but amongst their recommendations were that NATO should be prepared to launch a pre-emptive nuclear attack in order to prevent the use of weapons of mass destruction (like the ones that weren't found in Iraq). (Even Osama bin Laden himself does not talk of nuking people so casually. All he says is stop supporting Israel, withdraw from "Afraq", butt out of our lives and we'll leave you alone.)
   

The last straw that broke the back of Western Civilisation: Neo-Conservatism

Will future historians attribute the fall of Western civilisation to Neo-Conservatism, the last straw that broke the camel's back?

The other straws are:

1) the welfare state
2) indiscriminate universal suffrage
3) feminism
4) Political Correctness
5) female promiscuity
6) Quantitative Easing
7) the West's stubborn policy of robbing Peter Palestinian to pay Paul Zionist as regards the State of Israel

What the Prophet Muhammad might have done if he were Anjem Choudary

I like to imagine that the Prophet Muhammad if he were alive and living in this country would turn up at Wootton Bassett and express sympathy and sorrow at the unnecessary deaths of the white working classes who are cannon fodder to the dishonourable and disastrous war that even the nitwit NeoCons now wish they hadn't started.

He might have made a speech suggesting that those who are still alive with the full number of limbs they were born with should consider going AWOL if they are about to be sent to Afghanistan and feeling uneasy about the war, and he might have suggested that those already there mutiny and down tools.

He might have suggested that the parents of soldiers still alive and not wishing to attend the funeral of their children persuade their children to do the same.

The penalty for going AWOL and mutiny is a court martial and 3 years' imprisonment, I think, but at least after that you would be alive, and still have the full number of limbs you were born with.

What would the Prophet Muhammad himself do is always a good question to ask oneself or suggest that the Muslims ask themselves, I would have thought.
