Inconvenient Truth: 10 Times More Hate Crimes Against Jews Than Muslims

<span>from NewsBusters.org - Exposing Liberal Media Bias <span>by <span>Noel Sheppard

Australia has a new Government. Julia Gillard is on her way to Govt. House to be sworn in as our PM. We have a Labour Government and now you will see the ROT really set in over here :(.
Probably as in the past Labour will send the country into massive debt and we will all suffer for it.
Ce sera, sera ...I guess

Bernice: politicians never seem to learn. Republicans here better get it right or they will be out next too!

From Forbes:

"The GOP’s constant kneejerk rejection of economic ideas simply for the sake of Saying No has as much to do with our current malaise as anything being done wrong in the White House. The newly-minted fiscal conservatives on the Republican side of the aisle, many of whom are themselves responsible for the $3 trillion and counting Iraq War, are like the old men in the Muppet Show who heckle from the balcony.

It’s naysaying for naysaying’s sake at this point and I hope voters will remember that their favorite Republican All-Stars are equally complicit in the crime that is 15 million unemployed 3 years into a recession"

Artful Dodger: He has lots of time to rebound, St Ronny didn't become popular until the assassination attempt

Artful Dodger: Historically speaking, losing ground in both the senate and congress is typical for the political party in power.They will lose seats, but two months is enough time to close the gap

The Col: Same over here in the UK.. It's usual that the party (or parties) voted in lose popularity after the election. After all.. no-one really likes politicians.. just we haven't got a better system at the moment.

.. but the pastor does not care.

A small minority church in the USA plans to burn 200 Qur'ans on the anniversary of 9/11 in a stand against Islam. The top US commander in Afghanistan warned troops' lives would be in danger if the Dove World Outreach Center in Florida went ahead.

... I think the church with only an attendance of about 50 wants to boost it's congregation through this action...... sad.

vote green america!

when clinton was pres...they had bin laden in the crosshairs,but because laden was with arab emissaries,,he didnt order to execute ....should we blame 911 on clinton?

Tuesday: Nope.. I've heard of sadder.

Bwild: A new system of generating green power has just been announced in the UK. It's a form of wave where salt water is pumped into a reservoir which allows it to be used in a hydro electric means.

.. A new type of nanotec for solar which makes them self repairing. Also that soon we might be able to top up batteries with a sugary liquid.

(V): Solar powered robot soldiers would please both the neo cons and the tree huggers

The Col: I think the neo cons will have to settle for solar powered spy planes at the mo.. but soon maybe they can have coca cola powered No. 5's!!

(V):Actually, you have made a good point.Sponsorship could help defray the costs of war.Imagine missiles with company logos, or strategic undertakings such as " the surge" being brought to you by American Express

The Col: .... "That's McDonalds... and then some!!"

A radio commentator here said the following, in a rather sarcastic tone:

"Since when has anything bad happened when people decide it is OK to burn books."

If the idiots in Florida go ahead, the following will happen:

1. Moslems in many countries will make big bonfires and burn copies of the New Testament.

2. There will be massive protests in Islamic countries, and they will put a price on the head of that pastor, just like they did with Salman Rushdie.

3. Al Qaida will come out and say "we told you so", referring to how "American imperialists hate Islam".

3. There will be an increase in terrorist attacks against both military and civilian targets both in the Middle East and elsewhere.

In the mantime that pastor will get more people into his church, which means more notoriety and more money for him. I doubt that his motives are fuelled by a "Christian" sentiment, or any real sense of loss after the tragedy of 911.

I wonder how Christian would feel if somebody did the same with the Bible. Say, a bunch of Communists decided to commemorate the birth of Karl Marx by burning the New Testament. The man who is trying to burn the Koran is either too selfish and too stupid to even realize what he is doing, or he is too destructive and wants to provoke Moslems.

(V): Burger King would be able add a whole new meaning to The Whopper

According to the news the powers that be can't do anything about this Pastor burning the Koran.....I would lay money on - if he was burning the American flag they would soon do something about it. Why antagonise the Muslims - aren't they doing enough to make people miserable without making it worse?

Bernice: How many members are there in that church? 50? I suggest protestors set up a printing press nearby, and for every Koran burned, print two more.

Übergeek 바둑이: The Nazi's burned books.....

The Col: ... Incendiaries can be renamed "fries".

The Col: If it wasn't for the fact he's already been told the fire itself is illegal.. I'd go along and burn 4 Bibles for every one Qur'an he burns.

... see who cracks first.

(V): I liked it better when they just burned bra's!

The Col: there are now 20 members...the rest left....

(V) who's talking of the NAzi's

now how clever is that?

Bwild: They'd have to be cheap ones these days for any woman to want to burn!!

Bernice: I remembered the Nazi's burned books... it's a history thing.

As to burning Bibles... Just a book. as The Col. said... you can just print more.

Speaking of fries.. an clip from an old film...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sx7XNb3Q9Ek&feature=related

(V): that is sick....fries...women and children being burnt/killed. If that were your wife and children you wouldnt be too happy...

an old film or not, it isnt to be associated with "fries"

Bwild: The downside to that, is that the ones most willing to do it are usually the ones least in demand

Bwild:

Artful Dodger: oh, an argument is what you want, sorry

Artful Dodger: thanks for the suggestion,I'm comfortable with what I have posted

Artful Dodger: Thank you for your opinion

Tuesday: What's that "let God sort them out" quote? I probably have it wrong

Tuesday: thanks

Bernice: There is in the telling of history and of current events, something called being satirical .. from "satire"

Satire is primarily a literary genre or form, although in practice it can also be found in the graphic and performing arts. In satire, vices, follies, abuses, and shortcomings are held up to ridicule, ideally with the intent of shaming individuals, and society itself, into improvement.[1] Although satire is usually meant to be funny, its greater purpose is constructive social criticism, using wit as a weapon.

Blame the BBC and their wonderful programs such as "QI" and "Have I got news for you".. I'd like to also thank C4, ITV.

Heard of Oscar Wilde??

Artful Dodger: ROFl, but you got the wrong face on it hahahahahaha

Artful Dodger: did you get censored or did you delete your posts?

The Col: you can guarantee that AD wouldn't delete his own posts, unlike some I could name but won't because people don't seem to like that.
