Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

This is funny to me. A left-leaning bud just sent me a link from a christian wing-nut that declares that homosexual behaviour causes earthquakes. Of course,it is bullshit,but his point is that if you are politically incorrect,you subscribe to all the weird shit and probably think that muslims actually are evil. It is easy to preach from atop a high moral horse. This got me thinking,again. If 50 large lesbians were to march enmasse towards that “lil pussy bitch”Darcey’s house, would that not ‘spook’ the animals and cause small structures to collapse,just like a frigging earthquake.Maybe the evangelist knows of what he speaks.Maybe not. The imagery is amusing,50 large lesbians,disembarking from 5 short buses, rodeo buckles flashing in the moonlight,marching lockstep to rid the world of intolerance.

Kate, were you aware that “WARREN HAS THE MOST POPULAR BLOG IN CANADA”?
In fact it is so popular that there are hundreds … wait thousands … ok one comment on his blog. True, each comment is subject to “moderation” but just imagine what courage this must have required of him!
All this time we thought that he didn’t allow comments because he was trying to censor criticism. Well there’s that, but another reason indubitably is that he would be embarrassed by the paucity of comments his lawyer buddies would find on his goofy backwater blog.

—October 1983: suicide attackers carry out near simultaneous truck bombings against barracks of French and U.S. peacekeeping forces in Beirut, killing 241 American Marines and 58 French paratroopers.

One has to wonder how things would be with al Qaeda, Hizbalah and other Iran backed gangs like Muqtada al Sadr today if Secretary Wineberger had not reversed Reagan*s order to slam down Hizbalah for the 241 Marines and 58 French paratroopers killed in Oct. 1983.

Robert Jacq – Warren is not ever been noted for exageration. I believe Steyn or Ezra calls him the head “Smoke Blower” and for good reason
If he uses “site hits” then that is silly as I always look at his site to see what silliness, propaganda or spin he has manufactured.
So it is now KKKate? Will Kate be invited to his imaginary “War Room” and what video games will he be linked up to?
Is that not defamation? Reminds me of Steyn’s post the Nazis are coming” – guess they and KKK, Nazis plus racists are everywhere?
How come none of us noticed it? Too busy shopping at Wal Mart?
Warren must be desperate as his blag is now open for comments. I can picture him up late at night, doing reverse IP lookups, plotting, always plotting…..
“It may sound suprising, but according to a 2007 report by Harry Snook, a barrister for the Centre for Policy Studies, there are 266 powers allowing officials to enter your home, and not all require a warrant. Those who can break in include firefighters, in an emergency, and police arresting a suspect. The Environment Agency can gain access without a warrant where there is danger of pollution or damage to public health.
…
Then there are the more unusual Acts. Under the Bees Act, officers can enter to search for foreign bees. Under the Hypnotism Act, the police can enter a property where they suspect offences related to stage hypnotism are taking place.”

I’d be interested in seeing that “link from a christian wing-nut”. Please share it.
Because there is similar story out there about another fellow blaming homosexuality for earthquakes. His name is Shlomo Benizri, a member of the Shaz party in the Israeli Knesset and an orthodox Jew.
Either there are two loons making the same claim, or someone, somewhere, has decided that anyone making a silly statement about homosexuals MUST be a “christian wing-nut”.
Please clarify.

“Muslim leaders write ‘harmony’ letter to Jews”
By Jonathan Petre, Religion Correspondent
telegraph.co.uk
An international group of Muslim leaders have sent a letter to the world’s Jewish community appealing for better relationships between the faiths.
The unprecedented letter, which is being seen as a significant gesture of reconciliation, said: “Many Jews and Muslims today stand apart from each other due to feelings of anger, which in some parts of the world, translate into violence.
“It is our contention that we are faced today not with ‘a clash of civilizations’ but with ‘a clash of ill-informed misunderstandings’.”
Signatories of the letter include Professor Akbar Ahmed, a former High Commissioner of Pakistan to Great Britain, who also signed a similar statement earlier this year from Muslim scholars to Christian leaders around the world.
The new letter said: “Deep-seated stereotypes and prejudices have resulted in a distancing of the communities and even a dehumanizing of the ‘Other’. We urgently need to address this situation. We must strive towards turning ignorance into knowledge, intolerance into understanding, and pain into courage and sensitivity for the ‘Other’.”
——————
“Dehumanizing of the other?”
Like the Quran calling the Jews sons of apes and pigs? That kind of dehumanizing?
Or, “Believers, take neither Jews nor Christians for your friends.” Quran 5:51
Or, “Allah’s Apostle said, “You (i.e. Muslims) will fight with the Jews till some of them will hide behind stones. The stones will (betray them) saying, ‘O ‘Abdullah (i.e. slave of Allah)! There is a Jew hiding behind me; so kill him.’ ” HADITH Sahih Bukhari [4:52:176]
Perhaps if they want reconciliation they might, I don’t know, start with their ‘holy’ texts and their children’s school text books?
Human rights trump common sense again.
I didn’t find this anywhere on SDA and I’m sure some of you have seen it but words fail me.
David Gelernter, Feminism and the English Language
How can I teach my students to write decently when the English language has become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Academic-Industrial Complex? Our language used to belong to all its speakers and readers and writers. But in the 1970s and ’80s, arrogant ideologues began recasting English into heavy artillery to defend the borders of the New Feminist state. In consequence we have all got used to sentences where puffed-up words like “chairperson” and “humankind” strut and preen, where he-or-she’s keep bashing into surrounding phrases like bumper cars and related deformities blossom like blisters; they are all markers of an epoch-making victory of propaganda over common sense…
(Via CSP) U.S. to expand ‘eyes and ears’ in Pakistani tribal areas
U.S. officials are quietly planning to expand their presence in and around the lawless tribal areas of Pakistan by creating special coordination centers on the Afghan side of the border where U.S., Afghan and Pakistani officials can share intelligence about Qaeda and Taliban militants, according to State Department and Pentagon officials.
The Bush administration is also seeking to expand its influence in the tribal areas through a new economic support initiative that would initially focus on school and road construction projects. Officials recently asked Congress for $453 million to initiate the effort – a larger request for economic support funds than for any country except Afghanistan…

If there ain’t no human rights angle here,why is the guy taking the bar owner to the OHRC?
I guess that’s what surprises me. The guy can smoke pot legally. No problem. The owner tells him not to do it in the front door of the bar the guy was drinking in. No problem. The guy says you’ve violated my human rights. Problem.

15 Years@War
The WTC bombing was radical Islam’s declaration of war against the United States.
On the morning of February 26, 1993, Islamic militants steered a nondescript Ryder van through the winding darkness of the parking garage under the World Trade Center. They had spent years planning this moment in secret meetings at mosques and jailhouses, in rural outposts that served as paramilitary camps, and in safehouses where explosive compounds were mixed in makeshift labs.
Loaded into the van’s rear compartment was a 1,400-pound chemical bomb. http://tinyurl.com/37awf4 (NRO)
