WHOOPS! Looks like Britain's joined America and Spain as a target....

Well, it had to happen, didn't it. I was selling a few shares, as it happened, from my "ISA", on the day... wish I'd done it the day before!! (Though the guy at Royal Bank of Scotland said he didn't think I'd lost too much... the market was nicely up before that day.)

Poor fucking London. I'm glad I don't live there any more. My (now late) mother was glad that I came back to live with her in Cornwall towards the end of 1990, largely because of the (IRA) terrorist attacks and (privatization-caused) rail disasters that bedevilled London and South-East Britain throughout the rest of the 90s... (It was pretty fatal for any career I might have had, mind you!)

Yes, everybody, and you DO notice, that as with ALL such attacks... it is never some big banquet or junket of the upper class that is hit by the terrorist attack. NEVER the Bohemian Grove party, or the Bilderbergers' meetings, or the London Lord Mayor's Banquet... OR the G8 summit... OR anything like that... NO-ONE's tried anything like that, since the IRA bomb attack on the Grand Hotel in Brighton at the Conservative Party Conference in October 1984... that - nearly - got quite a few of 'em!!! The ruling elite, I mean!

Yes, and even on BBC news, it was said how "cunning" this putative al-Quaeda splinter group was supposed to have been, by aiming to attack London AT the time of the G8 summit, WHEN most of the police and security service resources were diverted 500 miles away in Scotland... MAY be...

Although I PERSONALLY just think that's cowardly; because I personally think that NO revolutionary group, religious, Islamic or otherwise, should ever aim at soft targets; it should use all its resources, particularly if it has people prepared to suicide themselves, at evading ALL security precautions by hook or by crook; and by getting a few people through to strike directly at "the head of the snake". I know that's what I'D DO IF I were a terrorist; no soft targets for me. And that's how at least 2 of India's leaders from their ruling dynasty were dispatched, in recent years.

Of course... if you just want to panic the populace: maybe that means you're in some way funded by the ruling elite (for they love panic!) or maybe that means you're a MI5/CIA operation yourself, "Secret Al-Qaeda Jihad in Europe", or whatever you like to call yourself - hopelessly compromised.

Anyway, according to what these Brits who came on the below-mentioned radio show said, confidence in Blair and ALL his stupid schemes - Like these "identity cards" are at an all time low. Even Michael Portillo said something like that on British late-night current affairs TV. NOBODY believes I.D. cards are any protection from terrorists.

The ONE good thing about the grisly affair is that it seems to have wiped that thoroughly irritating smirk off Blair's face for a while. And the bombings do seem to have given him a genuine shock; or maybe acting was just one of his favourite classes at his public school, Fettes College.

But he might have been as genuinely surprised as George Bush (who spends his G8 holidays in Scotland falling off his bike!). Because who's to say the frontmen are ever really kept "in the loop"??

Yes... I clicked onto Yahoo News Message Boards yesterday, the day of the bus and subway (Underground) attacks. Most of the messages posted on there by the great British/American - mainly American - public were just the usual thing, ie: "sand niggers suck" vs. "Libs rule - President Clinton had a much better record on fighting terrorism" and examples to prove it.

But one guy posting on there recommended this radio site, and posted a link to it, which I HEARTILY recommend you click, even if you don't agree with the ideas of the Christian nonconformist radical right, or wherever Jones thinks he finds himself... I never know with all those "fringey" types, but they do talk sense sometimes * * * * IE, THAT THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS "ISLAMIC TERRORISM" PER SE - IT IS ALL STATE-SPONSORED: IN BRITAIN SUCH INCIDENTS HAVE A LOT TO DO WITH THE DRIVE TO COMPULSORILY INTRODUCE "IDENTITY CARDS", AND OTHER METHODS TO KEEP TRACK OF THE POPULATION 24/7, EG. SATELLITE TRACKING OF CARS (which they intend to make part of the car insurance legislation), WHICH IS VERY POSSIBLE IN A GEOGRAPHICALLY SMALL NATION LIKE BRITAIN. http://66.160.133.226:8020 ******

Have a listen to the link above! It plays very well in a player such as Musicmatch Jukebox. It seems to be (now that I've listened to it twice - a repeat of a several-hour-long broadcast put out by Alex Jones' radio station yesterday, on the day of the attacks. I don't know how long it will be available at that link; maybe indefinitely.)

He doesn't buy at all the idea that it was "Secret Al-Quaeda Jihad in Europe" that "dun it"; as he mockingly points out, the "information" for this only came from ONE Arabic-language website; rather like that info about WMDs in Iraq came from one rather amateurish "thesis" selected at random from the Web, is the comparison he uses.

Looks like the mainstream news organisations are forever grasping at straws to find an "immediate, unassailable, all-explaining" explanation as to WHO is behind this or that"... with very little evidence for it, because nobody ever heard of that particular Islamic organisation before; it's not known to anybody.

Anyway, on that broadcast (which is ALSO full of radio commercials for all sorts of health extracts and links to such product websites which I CANNOT resist... hope one of them gets rid of my high blood pressure, Alex Jones!! It SOUNDS good!)..

On that cached broadcast, Mr Jones invites all kinds of interesting Brits onto his show... Including a British MI5 ex-operative whose name I cannot remember at the time... David Shayler, that is the one!

Paul Thomas, and Joseph Skelton, webmaster of http://www.cremationofcare.com, a new site, as he says: worth a look if you are interested in "The New World Order"!

Alex Jones... that guy with the gruff, fairly "bombastic", carnival barker's voice... who took the video footage of our elite dancing around under a stone owl and doing a mock human sacrifice, as they do every year, in the ceremony known as "The Cremation of Care", at Bohemian Grove, the elite all-male resort for Skull-and-Boners (that sounds good, that description!) and friends among the redwoods of California....

Anyway, it was quite funny footage (though Jones obviously takes it very seriously) and all kudos to Jones and his friends who infiltrated the annoying event to get it, including British journalist and humourist Jon Ronson... the whole story can be read in the latter's book "Them", and a number of other interesting anecdotes about Islamic fundamentalists, Bilderbergers etc, all in Jon's own inimitable style. He's a wonderfully entertaining journalist, in a sophisticated way.

No-one on the Left I know has much good - or indifferent - to say about Skull and Bones OR Bohemian Grove, BTW. The Marxists have STOPPED just "ignoring" such junkets or simply calling them "decadent"; the World Socialist Web finds it all pretty sinister too. http://www.wsws.org/articles/2000/dec2000/bohe-d27.shtml "The Bohemian Grove Club: America's elite at work and at play."

http://www.wsws.org/articles/testdir/feb2004/elec-f21.shtml "Kerry’s social background is similar to that of George W. Bush. They even share membership in the Yale secret society Skull and Bones." See! Socialists know it!!

But remember to tune out of the Alex Jones broadcast once he starts inviting guests on who talk about Hillary Clinton.... yawn!!

And to THINK that the posts I have been preparing to put on here for days have been MUCH more staid: eg, my impressions of the American Democratic party and its current relevance; and my embryonic ideas for blogger thinktanks to be funded by George Soros (or someone!) which will grow to be a feared and influential opponent to the dreary right-wing "thinktanks" which make your heart sink every time you hear about them and their shenanigans, viz. the Manhattan Institute.

WHY should not lefty intellectuals be paid handsome sums and employed in sinecures (as they are in academia) to promote LEFT-wing ideals??

It might not be REALLY revolutionary; but it would be fun - and lucrative for those involved, fellow bloggers. I'm serious. More later!

Sayonara for right now!
