A criminal in the UK gets a helping hand...

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/essex/7280939.stm

Here's an article from yesterday's National Post by Father De Souza on the new crime bill:

http://www.nationalpost.com/opinion/columnists/story.html?id=356604&p=1

Interesting, because no one seems to be following this stuff.

Great article by Conrade Black. I hope he is granted an appeal, wins that appeal and then tars and feathers his accusers (esp the Puffins in this country who hated him ).

Re the Fr De Souza article, which is critical of the crime bill, there'e a rebuttal in today's Post by someone called Jerry Amernic.

CNN is still covering Canada and the nafta leak. Today they mentioned it come from the Clinton camp, but she said NO. Also someone stopped at the border recently appears to be connected with the bombing in Times Square yesterday.

(Via Melanie Phillips) Christopher Booker, Beware the politician posing as a scientist

One of the fond delusions of our age is that scientists are a breed apart from ordinary mortals, white-coated custodians of a mystery with authority to pronounce on any scientific issue, however remote it may be from their own field of expertise. A shining example was the status given to Sir David King, who has just retired after seven years as the government Chief Scientist. In 2001, when he was appointed by Tony Blair at the height of the foot-and-mouth crisis, Professor King’s speciality was ‘surface chemistry’. Yet immediately top of his agenda was the need to fight an animal disease...

The next big issue to put King in the headlines was global warming, which in 2004 he described as ‘a far greater threat to the world than international terrorism’. At a press conference with Blair, he claimed that global temperatures were higher than they had been for 60 million years, predicting that by the end of the 21st century Antarctica would be the only habitable continent left on earth.

(Via CSP) Ralph Peters, Lessons from the General

What did Iraq teach Odierno as a soldier? What professional tenets were reinforced by his multiple combat tours?

"First, you have to empower your subordinates. That means you have to underwrite the risks involved," to take the heat when they make mistakes. The general sees this as crucial to our 21st-century Army.

"Second, as a senior leader, you have to trust your instincts . . . you never stop learning and you have to adapt to the changing situation . . . but trust your instincts."

"Third, you have to get out and touch it, feel it, see it." You can't manage a war or a counterinsurgency effort from an office. Nothing substitutes for the sense of reality you get from walking the streets with soldiers and Marines.

Terrorists beat the Shin Bet defense system in Jerusalem for the first time since 2006

Under the guidance of Iran, Syria and Hizballah, terror planners have learned how to bypass the universally-acclaimed Shin Bet counter-terror system by dispensing with large operational teams which include accomplices who drive the suicide killer to target. The Israeli security service found this set-up highly susceptible to penetration for advance tip-offs of attacks in store.

Thursday’s attack was carried out single-handed by a lone gunman, a local man and Israeli citizen who could move around Jerusalem unnoticed. As a delivery-man, he could conduct his own surveillance and choose his method of attack and its timing. The Kalashnikov assault rifle he used is available for cash in most Israeli towns.

Akey Breaky NAFTA-Gate?
Eyes and ears on the Hill today are squarely focused and tuned into any developments surrounding a senior journalist's future over a NAFTA-Gate leak.

Yesterday, Kady O'Malley asked in her blog if anyone else heard a wild rumour about a CTV reporter being fired for allegedly confirming that it was Ian Brodie behind the original NAFTA leak. She later updated her blog with "DEBUNKED." HERE....

But that hasn't quelled the rumours that a head may roll.

Sources say a CTV reporter confirmed to the CBC's Susan Boner that Brodie was the source of the leak. Boner later went to air with confirmation from CTV reporter, without naming him.

I mean, what kind of network would allow one of its own reporters to be made the scapegoat for what would be an appalling lack of judgment by a senior government official? I look forward to debunking this ridiculous claim just as soon as I can confirm that it's no more than a very unfunny joke. ...-

Unveiled: The new supergun weapon against the Taliban can kill from over a mile away

It is the latest weapon on the front line against the Taliban - the British Army's most powerful-ever sniper rifle, capable of killing with pinpoint accuracy from more than a mile away.

Yesterday the Army showed off its new Long Range Rifle, which has just entered service with combat units in Afghanistan to replace smaller and less powerful weapons.

The £11million upgrade programme is part of a "renaissance" of the sniper tradition - which during the Cold War was largely relegated to the sidelines - as modern commanders rediscover the huge value of pinpoint fire from sharpshooters.

"Arbour may be 'coming home to run for Fed.Libs in Que" -- if she does, I consider it a clear indication that our justice system is a travesty.

This would have Arbour revealing her hand as a partisan and I think it makes a mockery of her whole career. But given the knee-jerk hypocracy of the Liberals they would would probably see nothing problematical about this.

I agree with Black that this was really a factional dispute at a public company and that incarceration is unjust.
And here's where I might sound like a liberal: regardless of your feelings about Black, putting him in jail seems cruel and unusual punishment and unnecessary. Maybe a payback order to the company and "community service", e.g. tutoring young people on business formation, jouranlism?

"To decentralize power is to reduce the absolute amount of power, and the competitive system is the only system designed to minimize the power exercised by man over man."

THE ROAD TO SERFDOM
FRIEDRICH A. HAYEK

"Few recognize that the rise of fascism and Marxism was not a reaction against the socialist trends of the preceding period but a necessary outcome of those tendencies.
Yet it is significant that many of the leaders of these movements, from Mussolini down (and including Laval and Quisling) began as socialists and ended as fascists or Nazis. In the democracies at present, many who sincerely hate all of Nazism 's manifestations are working for ideals whose realization would lead straight to the abhorred tyranny.
Most of the people whose views influence developments are in some measure socialists. They believe that our economic life should be 'consciously directed ' that we should substitute 'economic planning ' for the competitive system. Yet is there a greater tragedy imaginable than that, in our endeavour consciously to shape our future in accordance with high ideals, we should in fact unwittingly produce the very opposite of what we have been striving for? Planning and power. In order to achieve their ends the planners must create power power over men wielded by other men - of a magnitude never be-fore known. Their success will depend on the extent to which they achieve such power.

Democracy is an obstacle to this suppression of freedom which the centralized direction of economic activity requires.
Hence arises the clash between planning and democracy. Many socialists have the tragic illusion that by depriving private individuals of the power they possess in an individualist system, and transferring this power to society, they thereby extinguish power. What they overlook is that by concentrating power so that it can be used in the service of a single plan, it is not merely transformed, but infinitely heightened. By uniting in the hands of some single body power formerly exercised independently by many, an amount of power is created infinitely greater than any that existed before, so much more far-reaching as almost to be different in kind. It is entirely fallacious to argue that the great power exercised by a central planning board would be 'no greater than the power collectively exercised by private boards of directors'.

There is, in a competitive society, nobody who can exercise even a fraction of the power which a socialist planning board would posses. To decentralize power is to reduce the absolute amount of power, and the competitive system is the only system designed to minimize the power exercised by man over man. ...-

"Obama’s criticism of the trade deal reflects either a willful disregard of the facts or a poor command of economics."

(Via AEI) Philip I. Levy, Doing a Job on NAFTA

...Here’s one popular trick: see how many people work in export-related industries; use that number to say that every $1 billion of exports is associated with a certain number of jobs; then say that a trade surplus equates with jobs gained and a deficit with jobs lost.

This is, in fact, the basis for the largest estimates of NAFTA-related job losses. The U.S. trade deficit ballooned after NAFTA. That change occurred broadly, not just with NAFTA countries, and it was accompanied by a drop in the unemployment rate and significant job creation. But if one ignores these broader lessons, ignores the pre-existing free trade agreement with Canada, and ignores everything else that happened, one can come up with the number of 1 million jobs lost. And apparently this number strikes some people as plausible (or at least useful).

Djavad Salehi-Isfahani, Are Iranian Women Overeducated?

Last month a brief note published on the website of Iran's Parliamentary (Majles) Research Center raised a stir. It reported on the results of a study done by the Center on the rising enrollment of women in universities, but its tone was alarm instead of praise. The closing of the gender gap in education has been hailed as one of the Islamic Republic's important achievements... but inside Iran there are concerns about women taking up precious spaces in universities...

Bruce Riedel, Assassinating Terrorists: The bin Laden Case

So killing senior terrorist leaders in some cases can profoundly change the course of events. Leadership matters in terrorist organizations like everywhere else. Democratic leaders should always weigh the pluses and minuses, the costs and risks, of any operation to kill the enemy on a case-by-case basis with great care. The objective should be to stop a murderer before he strikes; not revenge, but preemption. The attacks on bin Laden in 1998 and Mugniyeh in 2008 fit that requirement in my view.

Maz2, I'll try. A link to the video may be problematic: AEI's event materials often have the video and slides playing simultaneously, so I assume at least two applications are involved.

Despite all of the bull that the CPC has put out on the concept of personal freedom and responsibility (eg.: a non-intrusive nanny-state, ala conservative policy), it's a shame to see the health minister Tony Clement, use his $64 million drug policy wasted through mis-information and pandering to big pharma.

Worse, his article in the National Post establishing the reasons for the policy include the ever-so-liberal statement: "In the absence of clear advice from government, young people often receive their information from the worst sources:....."

Curiously, no parents, teachers, or responsible peers exist in this world of government.

This is how national policy gets made: by pandering to votes from a bunch of passing puritans from the 905.

Way to go Ontario - you set the national agenda. Again. And again.

Please government, give me a clear message so I'll know what to type next.

I'm a little late getting here, but did anyone else catch The Agenda last night on the CPC's supposed "censorship" of Canadian films?

What a whitewash. I tried to comment on their site but had to go through the rigmarole of registering, so I said the heck with it.

Of four panelists, one being Jonathan Kay of the National Post, Charles McVety, an evangelical Christian pastor, gave the most spirited (no pun intended), informed, and informative opinion on why the bill being proposed isn't censorship. Kay started out well but petered out in the end.

The Agenda obviously wanted to frame the CPC's support of this bill--first proposed by the Liberals years ago, as McVety pointed out, at which time there was no hue and cry from the MSM--as a response to the "far right Christian" voice in Canada.

Just a load of hogwash and such a devious ploy to make it seem as though PMSH has "a hidden, far-right agenda." I'm weary of this game.

It seemed that Jonathan Kay might have liked to back up some of what Pastor McVety was saying, as opposed to the other two panelists who were out-and-out "this is censorship" cheerleaders, but he left the poor pastor hanging out to dry.

'Intersting how The Agenda put Pastor McVety "against" three other panel members, the usual tactic on this program and so many others: one lone, small-c conservative voice crying in the wilderness with the majority of the panel on the opposite side of the issue, or sitting on the fence.

Given the stacking of this particular deck, McVety did an admirable job, and each time the "moderator," Steve Pakin, smugly tried to put words into McVety's mouth, I wanted to wring his neck.

You know I don't mean that. ;-)

It seems Obama and Layton do no understand modern economic realities. They both bleat about job losses (funny how both countries have "lost" jobs). The reality is that unemployment is lower in both countries than before NAFTA. Again, there are many reasons for this, and one of them is the emergence of the high tech service industry, where most of job creation happening.

In Canada, Layton cries about job losses in one sector (heavily unionized BTW), and ignores tremendous growth and prosperity overall.

Oh, and Dion; what a joke. His party introduces a motion condemning the NDP and Bloc for defeating his Liberals, thus putting Tories in power. Of course he ignores Grit corruption and incompetence, and the fact that it is his party that is running away from confidence votes, and keeping PMSH and Tories in power. He should shut his mouth and go to an election, where he will have to open his mouth.

The Yukon does not have any real producing mines at this time because the greenies and imported Dippers ran all the mines out of business. The Feds have been shoveling big $$$$ into the Yukon Territory to pay gument payrolls, treaties, Aboriginal DEMANDS, Yukon Health Care etc. ever since John Cretchen told his wife that she could have the YT as 'her' token park.

The Yukon Premier is of the same ilk as Taliban Jack so why has Taliban Jack not told the Yukon Premier his thoughts and expressed OUTRAGE over the idea that Canada allow China to plunder precious metals (gold and silver) out of the Yukon using Chinese labour? China wants to corner the market on Gold and Silver; the Yukon has massive gold and silver deposits - the people in southern Canada are paying all the bills up here - why isn't anyone (from both left and right political spectrum's) squawking??
