I don’t know anybody who actually takes the time to speak to Progs/Commies/Marxists or whatever they are calling themselves these days.

Most I know are too busy sighting in their rifles as they believe the time for talking is quickly coming to an end. 😎

See porn king has started to get personal trying to secure leadership of his party of perverts. This disgusting outburst really pisses me off because, as taxpayers, we are paying for these foul outbursts that show just how shallow and evil these three mongrels are.

@ IanMck

Christ – over reaction much?

Whilst I do not support the tax payer paying for MP’s to watch porn movies, his actions hardly make him a pervert. I think you will find he is not the only MP who has watched porn – including all parties.

You seriously need to get hold of ‘Peaches does Las Vegas’ – and chill!

Griff, the current world leader of you commie progs is the Mad Mullah – Barry Obeyme – and you Griff are swirling round the plug hole towards oblivian as an individual because you are to scared to be a true progressive; see that you are wrong, and turn around and take another direction. – That’s being a ‘true’ progressive Griff!

You follow Obeyme like children follow circus clowns! 😎

Moira Coatsworth and Tim Barnett are spinning like tops trying to deny that Helen Clark had anything to do with David Shearer’s “resignation”. We can see the Tui billboard already;

Helen had nothing to do with it. Yeah right

Goodness Harriet – you think we are going to have civil war?

Will it be the north vs the south (after all the south island has had a fair amount of attention recently)
Or perhaps the Rest Vs Auckland?
Maybe the Right vs the Left – but it’s a bit difficult to define the lines on that one

Really interested to know how we will define which side we are on.
For example, Red calls me progressive, when in fact I’d like to revert back to times when people actually knew their neighbours and cared about them.

So which team would I be on, and although I can load a weapon, my aim is terrible – would I be better in the front row or the back?

Still obsessed with Helen huh?

I find sitting in the swing here rather hilarious. My national supporting friends hate Helen with passion, and my leftie friends are hoping for an asteroid to strike John Key.

I think I’ll vote for the party that is all about love – do we have one?

Labour are hypocrats.

Watching porn and having a wank is his sexuality – or at least part of it – and no one came to his defence. He didn’t ‘hurt’ anybody, spread disease, – or parade himself in front of children in Queen St.

Labour uses the gays as much as the gays use Labour. And that is the truth!

Having a wank over porn on the internet is a normal work day for cubical monkeys harryit. http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2013/sep/03/parliamentary-network-pornography-websites-figures

Nearly 300,000 “attempts to access websites categorised as pornography” were made from computers within parliament in the past year, official records show.

The figure, which averages more than 800 per day, was released by IT chiefs at the Palace of Westminster in response to a freedom of information request.

Can someone please define “porn” in 2013 ????

I asked my 16 year old grandson the other day and he told me things it took me years to know, long after his 16 years.

But seriously, I know that the only one of The Three Mouseketeers that would cause National any second thoughts, is JONES.

The rainbow and minus T, will be easily put away. The porn label wont wash come 2014, especially after “blowjob” Tolley’s red face in The House yesterday.

@ stigie

Not into deluded love stigie!

Actually what I really meant was, I’d love to see a party who could campaign on what they can do for me/the country, rather than on the negative attributes of the others.

I am disgusted with the name-calling, smug snide remarks, the historical crap (this party did this way back then stuff) and so on.

It used to be about ‘vote for me because I can offer you this’ not ‘vote for me because the other persons teeth are crooked’, or ‘vote for me because 15 years ago that other party did this’.

For the first time in my life, and I’ve been voting for more than 30 years, I will be placing my next vote against a party, rather than a belief in one. I find that pretty appalling that the state of politics in this country has deteriorated to the sort of behaviour one expects in a childrens playground.

So perhaps you can explain to me, how it matters? Why is it so important who Ms Clark supports?

This country is facing some huge issues from all sorts of natural and international aspects (earthquakes, GW, social inequality, potential international conflict, and so on), and here we are concerned because Ms Clark might have given her backing to Jones not Cunnliffe or whatever.

As long as people continue to make what Ms Clark thinks important by making an issue of it, she will continue to have influence. People fade very quickly if they are never mentioned.

“”Decades of development and sprawl are rightfully blamed for the degradation of our quality of life, and for our near unbearable congestion. This has turned many Angelenos against development and into NIMBY activists ready to object anytime to anything. But contrary to NIMBY creed, we cannot do nothing. The path we are on is really an economic fiasco in waiting,” writes Mayer.

“In greater Los Angeles, we are using more than 60 percent of our land for our automobiles (roads, parking lots, landscaped buffers, traffic islands, etc.).” This, he says, is a recipe for economic disaster because a smaller proportion of the city creates value. He offers a vision of a new Los Angeles where the millions of dollars currently wasted in traffic can be diverted to a vibrant local economy and where quality of life is excellent.

“Imagine our city with bustling pedestrian zones, coffee shops, and corner stores, markets, plazas, and lots of housing options surrounding our public transit hubs. Then imagine those hubs separated by low-density areas filled with picturesque narrow residential streets, bicycle networks, community gardens, and parks. All could be connected with public transit, and all of this in our near-perfect climate, and you could still drive, if you chose to.”

“But we cannot achieve this by only making minor adjustments to our land-use laws based on the popular consensus of people who want to continue to drive yet want all the other people to get off the road. We need to change much more rapidly and radically and we must get people mobilized toward change. We must create grass roots “YIMBY” (Yes, in my yard!) movements that demand different solutions; that is really the challenge of our time.”

It’s been said in the election campaign here in Aus that, young people today don’t all have the responsabilities that other generations had when they were 20ylds – like children, non-income wife, mortgage, bills, shopping, schooling ect and so the young vote for the non-boring stuff like the national broadband cable, carbon tax, gay marriage, legalising drugs – all the ‘free stuff’ !

National is incapable of representing all of us.

enhance living standards for all New Zealanders through sustainable economic growth and international competitiveness;
enhance choice and diversity, and raise standards of achievement in education;
ensure that all New Zealanders have access to quality health care and have security in retirement;

The hate merchants have done all they can to smear Abbott.
I can’t help but compare how the “progressive ” commentariat and media seem to think it’s OK to bomb Syria when bombing Afghanistan and Iraq was so immoral.
The difference is because it’s not a Bush in the White House.

It seems Obama can do no wrong.He got his Nobel Prize not for the cause of peace but for being not a Bush.

Times are very different now. People can only vote on what is important to their values (those that have values that is)

Say, while we discuss matters irrelevant, has anyone noticed that Australia will elect a new Government tomorrow?

Fairfax splits its support – Sydney for Abbott, Melbourne for Krudd.
News Corp backs Abbott.
The polls back Abbott.

Meantime billionaire Gina Reinhart, owner of most Fairfax stock, has this message for all Australians (and the rest of the thinking world 🙂 ), according to the Sun Herald this morning:
***

SEMI-reclusive billionaire Gina Rinehart says politicians should sell all taxpayer-funded art and decor, reject clean energy programs, and let nonviolent criminals pay to stay out of jail.

She also called for a national day to celebrate mining.

Mrs Rinehart declined an interview with News Corp Australia on the eve of the election, but her executive assistant forwarded her latest article from Australian Resources Investment magazine, which carried her views.

In the article, “Learning from my Europe trip”, Mrs Rinehart told of a driver she encountered in Amsterdam, who claimed the Dutch people regretted going down the path of clean energy, such as wind power farms.

“He said people in Holland now wished they hadn’t incurred these cleaner power burdens, and wished they’d stayed with the old,” she wrote.

The driver complained clean energy meant higher taxes and the loss of old-industry jobs.

Mrs Rinehart said the same thing could happen in Australia.

“Shouldn’t we be letting people know there is no money falling from heaven?” she wrote.

Mrs Rinehart, who did not overtly back an Abbott government in the article, said she admired Ireland’s 12.5 per cent company tax rate (compared to Australia’s 30 per cent rate, or 28.5 per cent under Mr Abbott) and wrote favourably of Hong Kong’s 15 per cent top personal tax rate.

She wrote of the “madness of a coal-exporting country like ours charging itself the most expensive power in the developed world, thanks in part to taxes and renewable energy targets”.

Mrs Rinehart said Australians did not want ministers and government departments buying artwork with public money, and asked: “How much could be raised to go toward essential services if all the taxpayer-funded art and decor in government offices was sold?”

She also said Australians did not want new prisons and noted new “humane” prison programs in Texas, saying they could work here.

“Let them pay to get out of prison or not enter prison (a new source of revenue), and let them be part of the taxpaying workforce,” she wrote.

She wrote if criminals could not afford this, they could pay in other ways.

They could “agree to give up their votes” or surrender their passports, though what this would achieve was not made clear.

Mrs Rinehart also called for a “national mining and related industries day” so Australians better understood the contribution of these industries.

She did not suggest it should be a national holiday.

Ok pig lady the rich can go free and the poor ….

Did you consider that the reason is Australia is reliant on coal an expensive disgusting habit left over from the nineteenth century, is because coal doesn’t pay for its costs for damage to the environment.

I note that Obama really is absolutely tops at one thing, blaming other people ! Now it isn’t his “red line” any more,, no indeed, it wasn’t him that set that deadline, it was “I didn’t set a red line. The world set a red line”

It is often said that it is in adversity that a person’s true character shows through, and if so, this is NOT an endearing trait, is it ?

And I wonder where the anti-war groups are. Only one person/grouping seems consistently opposed to war, Rand Paul. For the others, it seems that it is just pure partisanship using the anti-war tag as a cover, because they all seem very quiet right now. For example, where’s “The Boss”, Springstein, very vocal about “George Bush’s warmongering”, but strangely quiet on the current situation. It seems that war is not the objection, the enemy is Republicans.

From yesterday’s GD, Kea said:

Lucy, so would that be your position if we were invaded by a overwhelming force of Muslims ? Remember they are only trying to install morality and save your soul, in their view. How about if the Muslims took over Israel with overwhelming force ?

You reckon Muslims are deluded for thinking that blowing stuff up improves anything. I agree. But explain why you think the US has improved anything by blowing stuff up in Afghanistan ? When it comes to blowing stuff up, I am pretty sure the US is way way ahead of the Muslims.

You apply constant double standards. It is not a lack of intelligence or consideration, it is because your world view is seen through the lens of religious bias. You attempt to apply scripture where it does not fit, in a way that invariably sides with Jews and Christians regardless of the actual facts before you. In short, it is people like you, on both sides, that cause these conflicts. I think you are decent person who means well, but you need to take a step back and look at these things with a clear head. I do not reckon JC would approve of your approach to resolving conflict back in his homeland. You are talking about his ancestors here, though I know you will struggle with that fact.

I am not a moral relativist. (see this link for a transcript of a refutation of moral relativism by philosopher Peter Kreeft). Therefore I don’t think every situation is morally the same. So every situation needs to be evaluated far more deeply than just going, oh look, it’s the same as X-Y, just turned on it’s head to Y-X. Which is what you are trying to do with taking my examples and turning them around, implying that they are the same in some way.

Invasions by Muslims have always been detrimental, you only have to be a rudimentary student of history to see that. Obviously I would feel very different about an overwhelming force of Muslims, just like I would feel different about Nazis or Soviets, all of which need to be vigorously resisted because to not do so results in a worse outcome. How Muslims or Nazis or Soviets feel or think about what they are doing is therefore irrelevant.

With regards to the US blowing stuff up in Afghanistan, they have been very careful with what they have blown up. They could have by now just blown the whole place to smitereens and then gone that’s fixed it. But no, they’re in there trying to build the place up and trying to get it self-governing (without the Islamists). I think they are going to fail, personally, because that part of the world needs to be ruled in the way that the Crusader ruled barbaric territories. Anything less will mean that the crazies will get back into power sooner or later, because Islam breeds crazies.

As for your last paragraph, see my first.

Kea #

“…..In short, it is people like you [Lucia], on both sides, that cause these conflicts….”

That’s crap Kea. The paradigm that you see the world through is one of religious hatred – a religion within itself. 😎

“……Trinity graduates have amassed 32 Nobel prizes, the entire Muslim world a mere ten. If you remove Yasser Arafat, Mohamed ElBaradei, and the other winners of the Nobel Peace Prize, Islam can claim just four laureates against Trinity’s 31 (the college’s only peace-prize recipient was Austen Chamberlain, brother of Neville).

Ten years back, even the United Nations Human Development Program was happy to sound off like an incendiary Dawkins Tweet: Its famous 2002 report blandly noted that more books are translated by Spain in a single year than have been translated into Arabic in the last thousand years.

Whatever its virtues, Islam is not a culture of inquiry, of innovation. You can coast for a while on the accumulated inheritance of a pre-Muslim past — as, indeed, much of the Dar al-Islam did in those Middle Ages Dawkins so admires — but it’s not unreasonable to posit that the more Muslim a society becomes the smaller a role Nobel prizes and translated books will play in its future…….” -Mark Steyn.

There is no reason what so-ever that religion[christian in this case] needs to be displaced from the West as it doesn’t cause conflicts, if anything, it speaks out against them. It’s you progs who tolerate and promote the backward behaviour of Muslims in western society.

You treat Christianity the SAME as you treat Islam – just like the ignorant western governments do!

McCain and Kerry have worked
together before on “war” issues…

And you will never believe what
they did.

John McCain ran in 2008 as a war hero and now he poses as an expert on military affairs.

There are just a few problems with that.

McCain is despised by fellow Vets, especially fellow POWs, not only for cooperating with the enemy, but also for blocking every effort to make sure all American POWs were returned after the war.

Interestingly enough, the other veteran who obstructed truth on the matter was JOHN KERRY, the fake candidate and Skull and Bones member who ran against Bush in 2004 and stepped aside in spite of massive and obvious electoral fraud in Ohio.

Kerry’s family got a massive pay off from the Communist Vietnam government for his “service” on their behalf helping kill off POW investigations. – See more at: http://www.brasschecktv.com/videos/government-corruption-1/the-last-time-mccain-and-kerry-partnered-up.html#sthash.Z0PTUvFO.dpuf

Why is it “news” when John McCain
visits the White House to push for
acts of war against Syria?

How does this obvious crook and liar
have any credibility at all about anything?

A trip down memory lane and a look
at some of McCain’s financial “antics.”

Video:

http://www.brasschecktv.com/page/24438.html

Who is John McCain?

He passes himself off as a war hero even though fellow POWs in Vietnam say he collaborated with his captors.

So what else does he do?

He’s a US Senator who is good at raising money…from anyone one and that included financial criminals who needed him to run interference in Washington DC for them.

He did it during the Saving and Loan crisis of the 1980s and he did it during the Sub Prime Meltdown of the 2008. – See more at: http://www.brasschecktv.com/videos/government-corruption-1/john-mccain-professional-crook.html#sthash.p9saiHUs.dpuf

On Gina Rinehart: I’m waiting for the next bit of the story…

In the article, “Learning from my Europe trip”, Mrs Rinehart told of a driver she encountered in Amsterdam, who claimed the Dutch people regretted going down the path of electronic banking.

“He said people in Holland now wished they hadn’t taken on the new easier systems and wished they’d stayed with the old,” she wrote.

The driver complained about the loss of old-industry jobs.

Mrs Rinehart said the same thing could happen in Australia. “Imagine all the people we’d have working as bank tellers if we got rid of ITM machines and electronic banking. Small towns could have branch offices of banks so staff, including cleaners would be employed. The impact on communities would be profound. This would be one of the most radical, progressive economic moves any where in the world.

When I’ve used my power to get this done, another bold move will be to ensure those bank offices created have coal burning fires for heating. That will employ even more people. God, I’m so brilliant, I don’t know why I’m the only one who has all the answers.”

The world did not set a red line, Obama’s red line only has meaning for the parties that agreed to it, and Syria is not one of those parties.

Obama should be impeached for attempting to conspire to commit an act of terrorism against Syria.

A 35 year old woman wrote to Pope Francis because she got pregnant and the father told her he was married already and to go get an abortion. The Pope gave her a quick ring and told her not to let anyone “rob her of hope” and said that if she couldn’t find a priest to baptize the child, that he would come and do it himself.

These are the people Obama is supporting –

The Syrian rebels posed casually, standing over their prisoners with firearms pointed down at the shirtless and terrified men.

The prisoners, seven in all, were captured Syrian soldiers. Five were trussed, their backs marked with red welts. They kept their faces pressed to the dirt as the rebels’ commander recited a bitter revolutionary verse.

“For fifty years, they are companions to corruption,” he said. “We swear to the Lord of the Throne, that this is our oath: We will take revenge.”

The moment the poem ended, the commander, known as “the Uncle,” fired a bullet into the back of the first prisoner’s head. His gunmen followed suit, promptly killing all the men at their feet.

This scene, documented in a video smuggled out of Syria a few days ago by a former rebel who grew disgusted by the killings, offers a dark insight into how many rebels have adopted some of the same brutal and ruthless tactics as the regime they are trying to overthrow.

The video is available to see on the site.

Wikiriwhis – so 30% earn over $43000. Are they the rich pricks that Labour keeps talking about? Is that where Labours new super income tax is going to start cutting in? What tax rate do you think they have in mind? Or will it start at the 50% level -$24000. So many promises made by the three amigos, somebody has to pay for it.

Will Radio NZ’s new chief executive, Paul Thompson, be able to shift the State broadcaster to the political centre after he takes over as chief executive on Monday?

He rose to the top in what was to become Fairfax New Zealand when it was controlled by Murdoch, but perhaps we expect too much from him if we want a broadcasting niche even remotely like Murdoch’s Fox News.

In fact, under Thompson’s leadership, Fairfucked NZ’s newspapers IMHO continued their drift to the Left. Older Kiwiblog followers can make their own judgements on whether the Christchurch Press, Dominion-Post, Waikato Times etc are further Left now than they were 10 to 15 years ago.

It’s interesting that ahead of Thompson’s takeover, Joanna Norris, the editor of the Christchurch Press (likely a Thompson appointee) will be interviewed on Kim Hill’s programme tomorrow morning.

It’s likely that Thompson will encourage Radio NZ to push further into digital services. Norris is a former digital editor of the Dominion Post, and Sinead Boucher, who has been in charge of Fairfucked NZ’s online arms for the last six years, was a week or two ago appointed group executive editor.

All of this doesn’t affect two questions: first, why, a century after the discovery of radio, does NZ need an internal State radio service (a shortwave service for propaganda to the Islands may be a different matter); and second, why does the State need to be in digital news/entertainment?

Fletch, Congress has delayed a Syrian strike for 60 days with a possible 30 further days.

But the 60 days coincides with Ison. This comet could be the sign of the son of man in the heavens.

Nasa says the comet is travelling at 200 million mph and may reach up to 500 million mph

I’m leaving you a link so you can see for yourself what the sign looks like inside the comet.

There’s a very graphic image 3/4 thru the vid. No one else has picked up the phenomenon as this vid explains and illustrates.

These are the people Obama is supporting –

Fletch, the people on KB crying for war and death in the holly lands are not concerned about all that. They see the worlds as Christian/ Jew = Good, Muslim = Bad.

The fact it is Muslim extremists being supported by Obama in their quest to destroy religious tolerance and install Sharia law is way too complex for them. Even with the persecution of Christians, Jews and Atheists in Egypt, by the Obama backed Morsi, does not drive it home to them. They only know hate.

Pope Francis has called for a day of prayer and fasting tomorrow for Syria, and has called together many of the world’s diplomats in the Vatican to actively discourage an attack: Pope rejects military solution in Syria:

I’m at the Vatican this week, where Syria is the number one topic of discussion and concern.

We just learned that in a letter sent yesterday to Russian President Vladimir Putin, Pope Francis urged international leaders to “lay aside the futile pursuit of a military solution” in Syria.

It was the latest in a series of Vatican statements signaling opposition to President Obama’s planned attack on Syrian government forces and urging instead a renewed international-backed effort at diplomacy and negotiation.

The pope wrote to Putin because the Russian leader is chairing a G20 summit that Obama is attending, but also perhaps because Russia has been a supporter of the Syrian regime headed by Bashar Hafez al-Assad, and therefore may have some influence with the Syrian leader.

Francis condemned the “senseless massacre now unfolding” in Syria, and said the international community cannot remain indifferent to the suffering of the country’s civilian population. But he said the path to follow was dialogue, because “violence never begets peace.”

The pope’s letter was made public today after a meeting of ambassadors summoned by the Vatican for an urgent discussion of the Syrian situation. Addressing the diplomats, the Vatican’s foreign affairs minister, Archbishop Dominique Mamberti, expressed outrage at the recent chemical weapons attack in Syria that left more than 1,400 people dead and called for clarification in identifying those responsible.

He cited Pope Francis’ recent condemnation of the attack: “There is a judgment of God and of history upon our actions which are inescapable!” The Obama administration has blamed the Syrian regime for the attack.

Mamberti said the short-term priority in Syria is to stop the violence, and he warned of “unforeseeable consequences” if the fighting continues. He then listed several essential principles that need to be part of a just solution in Syria:

— Renewal of dialogue between all parties in Syria.

— Preservation of Syria’s unity and territorial integrity.

— Protection of all minorities, including Christians, in the future Syria, as well as respect for religious freedom.

Mamberti also expressed the Vatican’s growing concern about the presence of “extremist groups” in Syria, often from other countries, and said opposition forces should keep their distance from such extremists and openly reject terrorism. This was a point also raised by several of the 71 ambassadors present for the discussion that followed, according to a Vatican spokesman.

When it comes to the issue of a U.S. attack on Syrian government forces, there isn’t much debate going on at the Vatican: everyone here seems to think it would be a very bad idea.

The message from the pope and others is that a U.S. bombing of Syria would not bring peace any closer, would increase suffering in the country, would worsen the flow of refugees, would risk sparking a wider war and could further endanger the Christian community and other religious minorities in Syria.

Pope Francis has called for a universal day of prayer and fasting for peace on Saturday, an appeal that’s struck a chord among other religious leaders, including Muslims in the Middle East.

But it’s clear the pope also wants to make sure the Vatican’s diplomatic voice is heard, and thus his letter to Putin and the convocation of ambassadors.

Sorry Ave, I’m not sure that gets him off the hook, although perhaps the old boy had assumed that nobody would be opening Obama’s mail while he was away. It’s possible that he sent it to Putin asking him to hand it on to Big Ears, but I’ll stick with my theory because all these Presidents look the same to me as well (oops, 😳 of course I should add that some of my best friends are Presidents and nobody should read anything untoward into that comment).

There’d be also the assumption that anything from the pope would be binned, unopened. Somehow I don’t think Obama is at all interested in anything the pope has to say. Putin was the right man to talk to, in my opinion, even though I find him completely untrustworthy.

Cute, calling me “Ave”.

On a brighter note, it is great to see the Pope speaking out for temperance and peace. I commend him for that. Interesting that we now have the Pope doing the same thing Kea the Christian hating, Muslim loving, atheist prog troll creature has been doing since this situation began.

Both the Pope and I do not want more war in the holly land. Surely we have some common ground here Lucy ?

I’ve been against the potential strike on Syria from the beginning, it’s just that I’ve not talked about that particular situation there on GD until today. There is a bit on my blog on it however.

I’ve been generalising here. Hopefully you appreciate the irony of that!

When I argue something, I try and stick very closely to the point, as to deviate is to be lead all over the place and that is a waste of energy.

Lucy, for me the principle is more important than the specifics. Possibly that is why common ground is overlooked in our exchanges.

The choices are not war or do nothing. That is a failure of imagination, not a failure of options. Obama seems to think he can do what he has always done and get a different result. He is very wrong and people have had a guts full of this carry on. The only ones I hear wanting war are the extremists on both sides and they are a minority. Americans are decent people and they deserve better from their leaders.

In New York, the US Ambassador to the United Nations, Samantha Power, left no doubt that Washington had given up trying to work with the UN Security Council over the attack.

She said there was “no viable path forward in this Security Council” and accused Russia of holding it hostage.

Beyond convincing Russia, Obama has a tough sell ahead elsewhere. China – another veto-wielding Security Council member – has already expressed its “grave concerns” over unilateral military strikes.

A political solution is the only way to end the Syria crisis, a senior Chinese official said on Thursday, warning world powers to be “highly prudent”.

“War cannot solve the problem in Syria,” Chinese delegation spokesman Qin Gang told reporters at the G20.

So Obama has “given up” trying to convince others to support his lust for war and conquest, but will just do it anyway ! And Russia is “holding it hostage” by not agreeing to Obama’s demands for death and destruction. What incredible arrogance and narcissism. Even traditional allies and the American people do not support his warmongering. I feel sorry for other black people, with political aspirations, standing in the shadow of this power crazied idiot. The first black president is also the worse president of any colour.

Ugly, the same shit works even now. We have learnt nothing. A few days ago we had David Farrar pulling out the “think of the children” bullshit.

He actually believes that Syria allowed UN inspectors into the country and then chose that exact moment to use Sarin gas on civilians AND specifically targeted “children”

Remember this came from David, a guy who is considerably better informed than the general population. All this against a chorus of anti Muslim sentiment, oblivious to the fact it is fundamentalist Muslims Assad is fighting and Obama is supporting. It is fucking madness and I am appalled by peoples stupidity.

” Addressing the diplomats, the Vatican’s foreign affairs minister, Archbishop Dominique Mamberti, expressed outrage at the recent chemical weapons attack in Syria that left more than 1,400 people dead and called for clarification in identifying those responsible.”

A word of caution to the Americans, the statement above from Archbishop Mamberti expresses the sentiments of the international community. There are many mercenary groups operating within this conflict with diametrically opposing views and there remains some uncertainty as to who ordered the use of those weapons. It may well be a time to seek a cessation of military activities from those involved in the conflict as opposed to intervention.

Can Iran, Victim of Chemical Weapons, Help Fix the Syria Crisis?

As it happens, circumstances are something near ideal for drawing Iran into a diplomatic process. The key is the Islamic Republic’s horrific experience with chemical weapons in its 1980–88 war with Iraq. Saddam Hussein’s unchecked use of mustard gas, cyanide and other chemical weapons against Iranian front lines left Tehran with both a deep abhorrence of chemical weapons and a deep skepticism of the international community that did nothing to enforce the treaties banning their use

Read more: http://world.time.com/2013/09/04/can-iran-victim-of-chemical-weapons-help-fix-the-syria-crisis/#ixzz2e6En4EAp

Of course they forgot to mention Saddam Hussein was backed by the USA in that war. The US not only failed to enforce the ban, they supported the offender who started the war and used chemical weapons.

Breathtaking U.S. Hypocrisy on Chemical Weapons

The U.S. has Repeatedly Violated the “Red Line” on Chemical Weapons

The U.S. encouraged Saddam Hussein’s use of chemical weapons against Iran … which was the largest use of chemical weapons in history. While the number of people killed in the August 21st chemical weapons attack has been estimated at between 350 and 1,429, 20,000 Iranians and 5,000 Kurds were killed by Saddam’s chemical weapons attacks with full U.S. support and backing.
