woolybanana Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 This article made me boil as it is totally ignorant. One of the conditions of asylum is that the grantee will not indulge in political activity, but the author seems to forget that. Frankly, the detainee should have been put on the plane to Jordan years ago and the same for his friends. He is, after all a convicetd terrorist in Jordan.http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/libertycentral/2009/feb/18/civil-liberties-law-abu-qatada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woolybanana Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 Mandela was convicted by a racist regime, not this boyo whose whole aim is to encourage kids etc to blow up women and childfren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gluestick Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 And he arrived in the UK on a forged passport: and until banged up in Bellmarsh, was claiming £800/month benefits 'cos he couldn't "Work" due to the old catch-all, a bad back.Meanwhile his wife and umpteen kids live in West London in a house reputed to be worth circa £670K.No doubt the resident bleeding hearts will be on here soon, telling us we're racists.....................

Frederick Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Somewhere in the past I recall Nelson Mandela connected with a bomb that went off in cape Town ? I dont think it was just his political beliefs that sent him to Riobin Island Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gluestick Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Mandella was a prime member of ANC (African National Congress) and an activist.Like so many, he was elevated to sainthood by a groundswell of left wing and liberal myopia.The total mess that South Africa is in, only shadows what happened to the rest of Africa post McMillan's "Wind of Change" speech in 1957.Mugabe epitomises a process which has destroyed so many African states post independance.The main worry concerning South Africa should be the gold, diamonds (which as "Inventory Stones" are an asset class) and perhaps most critical of all, Uranium Yellow Cake. The first two act as a stability fulcrum to the whole global financial system: and the last a target for pariah states.http://www.miningweekly.com/article/first-uranium-expects-first-yellowcake-from-ezulwini-by-endmarch-2009-02-10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dog Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 [quote user="woolybanana"]Justify this statement[/quote]I cannot currently find reference to it on the web. I am sure I read somewhere that there wanted posters for him stating he was a terrorist- it was in Palestine I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolybanana Posted February 20, 2009 Author Share Posted February 20, 2009 I wonder if it was because he stood up to the early Israeli terrorists. Was it the Stern gang? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolybanana Posted February 20, 2009 Author Share Posted February 20, 2009 He did write an article about the threat of Zionist terrorism as a threat to order, I think. I'll have a look too after Food and Thalassa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dog Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 It could well be - likewise the English had wanted posters for the Israeli terrorists that later went on to be politicians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woolybanana Posted February 20, 2009 Author Share Posted February 20, 2009 David Ben Gurion who was effectively the first and wisest Israeli president warned that the Palestinians whould be treated properly or there would be trouble. How wise he was. Most Israeli politicians since are not fit to be shoeshine boys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quillan Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Back to the OP. Personally, but I suspect there are many that will disagree, anyone who is so inhuman as to incite others to do their dirty work for them and in particular talk people in to killing innocent members of the public loose their human rights immediately and should be treated as the scum that they are. The world would be a far better place without them irrigardless of their nationality, colour or religion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most Israeli politicians since are not fit to be shoeshine boys.[/quote]Sorry to be picky, Woolly: I meant to revert on this before however events overcame me!As they are wont to do........The First president of Israel was in fact Chaim Wiezmann: the First PM was David Ben-Gurion.Ben-Gurion was never President.Interestingly, over New Year I read a most interesting book, "The Peacemakers" writtten by an eminent Prof. of History, Margaret McMillan, which is all about the 1919 Paris peace Conference and the horse trading and political expediencies which led to most of the Middle East's modern problems.I would commend this tome to anyone wishing to enjoy a much wider knowledge of the post WWI era and the problems surrounding the Treaty of Versailles.
