If Denmark were to launch daily rocket attacks on the U.K., would the U.K. sit back, do nothing and comply with do-gooder charitable organizations' requests to take a humanitarian view of the loveable rocket launchers?What if the rockets, far from being stuffed with high explosive designed to "simply" kill instead filled the warheads with ball bearings designed to indiscriminately maim the civilian population but when Britain pointed this out, learned world experts pronounced that it "probably was not so" and was the aggressive Britain's attempt to justify its outrageous attacks on little Denmark?
What if the U.K. were to then blockade Denmark and conduct attacks on military targets where there were known mobile military units using weaponry and technology from another European power equal to the U.K. in strength and using human shields to create a humanitarian outcry every time the U.K. struck back?
What if the tiny group who'd seized control in Denmark had vowed that the U.K. was a 'festering sore' which should be wiped off the map and that G-d was directing them to destroy every man, woman and child in those fair isles which were historically theirs by right?
What if the U.K. were then to expostulate that history clearly showed that the land belonged to the Anglo-Saxons but the international community got behind Denmark's version of history instead and ordered the U.K. to desist from these "unprovoked attacks on a sovereign nation", whilst conveniently ignoring the daily rocket attacks?
What if the U.K. launched an offensive which was inconclusive because the Danish military units simply faded back behind the mischievous European power's borders where they denied this was happening?
What if the humanitarian situation in Denmark, as a result of the blockade, meant that people were sleeping rough in their own faeces, dying in the streets of malnutrition and the malcontents who had a stranglehold on Denmark were to hoodwink the people into believing how evil the the U.K. truly was and that all this human misery should be laid at the U.K.'s door?
Meanwhile they continue to rain rockets on Britain and the people in France, over their daily coffee and croissants, shake their heads at the aggressive Brits because the French media, which they all slavishly believe would never tell a lie, has assured them it is so, showing only the results of British "atrocities" on state television?What if the U.K. was to turn, with open enquiring hands, to the world and ask, "Why does everyone hate us so?"
Problem with this version is that when you tell it like it really is no-one believes you or goes off in a snit because it's "obvious" who the real guilty party is because the media say so.
ReplyDeleteLeaving aside this particular issue for a moment - why can't the truth on any issue be told? Why always lies, lies, lies? I'm still an idealist after all these years.
ReplyDeleteExcellent analogy.
ReplyDeleteYes, you are an idealist in many ways and I admire you for it.
You don't have to be an idealist to expect to hear the truth.
ReplyDeleteIt's a normal pre-requisite for a functional society.
Something, (I would hope) every parent teaches their child, from the cradle onwards.
I am sure that human beings are basically "honest".
The problem arises with the selection processes and hoop jumping required for a politician to reach "the top". (Some would call it the bottom)
Since Britain's fall began, immediately post industrial revolution, from being basically militarily overstretched, the ethos of successive governments has been "managed decline".
The populace don't want to hear that, so the practice, art, and then science of lying evolved.
Fine when all media can be controlled, but impossible currently, hence we are aware of lies, which flow contrary to our expectations of those we elect, and indeed the image deliberately projected by those who seek election. And that becomes their first lie.
After that it becomes easier. More-so with a supine electorate, dumbed down in education, dumbed down by food additives and general survival pressures. Assaulted daily by pseudo science belched out by quangos and a compliant MSM that gives it airtime and therefor credence.
Those in the immediate circles of the politicians observe the winning formula of lies and corruption, and so it spreads.
Some are deliberately brought into the web, - some seek it after observing the gains.........
Oh my, I'm depressing myself.
Time to go.
The thing that stretches my incredulity is that the party being attacked is still providing electricity, and food convoys.
ReplyDeleteThe last food convoy was fired on, so had to return home.
The media portrayed that as the fault of the nation providing the food.
So they got the land, infrastructure, functioning industries, and ruined it, then power, and food, and still they attack.
Even the Egyptians were shocked by the ermmm, scratch, scratch, "tactics" of the "breakaways" just a few weeks ago.
BTW, did you see Zbigniew Brezhinsky, President Jimmy Carter’s national security adviser, who now advises Democratic Senator Barack Obama on foreign policy, and the Iranian-American Hassan Nemazee, one of Hillary Rodham Clinton’s principal donors visit to Assad in Syria lately?
They were part of a RAND Corporation delegation.(smirk) While Nemazee was tight-lipped on his talks with President Bashar Assad, Obama’s adviser stated: “The conversation dealt with recent regional developments, affirming that both sides have a common desire to achieve stability in the region, which would benefit both its people and the USA.”
Yeah, right!
You need to add a bit to your story where America gives Britain billions of dollars worth of high-precision state of the art weapons yet still manages to kill three times more civilians and children than perpetrators.
ReplyDeleteYou can conjure your own explanation for that because I don’t have one.
Zbigniew Brzezinski [who later became President Jimmy Carter's National Security Advisor] writes a book entitled "Between Two Ages." He has nothing but praise for Marxism: "Marxism represents a further vital and creative stage in the maturing of man's universal vision...Marxism is simultaneously a victory of the external, active man over the inner, passive man and a victory of reason over belief...Marxism, disseminated on the popular level in the form of communism, represents a major advance in man's ability to conceptualize his relationship to the world."
ReplyDeleteHe also describes how war can be waged against a nation without its citizens even realizing they are under attack: "Technology will make available to the leaders of major nations a variety of techniques for conducting secret warfare, of which only a bare minimum of security forces need be appraised. One nation may attack a competitor covertly...techniques of weather modification could be employed to produce prolonged periods of drought or storm, thereby weakening a nation's capacity and forcing it to accept the demands of the competitor."
I recently read Naomi Kliens book - Disaster Capitalism. What a thoroughly chilling account it gave of the Chicago boys and the the type of people the CIA props up.
ReplyDeleteWell worth a read.
I think we have reached a very crucial stage in our countries future and the next few months are going to be a very trying time for whats left of democracy in England.
Interesting analogy,but as usual there nothing is simple.

To true.
The focal point was that POS Clegg.
If Lab dissenters had known that Clegg was to be at all honest, more would have rebelled and voted for a ref.
They knew they would get a bollocking either way, but if they could have carried the vote, it would have been worth the bollocking.
POS Clegg is the bastard of the day.
We've come to expect gorgon to be a bare faced liar, and can factor it in.
JMB.
everything "there" is abundantly, obviously simple.
"Third, and Fourth generation refugees" - - that says it all.
They've had it on a plate so many times.
They have foregone the opportunity of their own state in favour of the opportunity to keep fighting Israel.
The hundreds of billions$ over the years, from the EU and the US, to name 2 donors has achieved nothing. NOTHING. - Other than to encourage more fighting and posturing to a fucking stupid world press, and an equally stupid populace that believes it.
Gazoo-ians, in particular, are prime examples of sheeple thoroughly pavlovian-sheepled by their ruling sheeplers. aka muslim brotherhood.
I didn't know that detail about ball-bearings. Awful.
ReplyDelete"You need to add a bit to your story where America gives Britain billions of dollars worth of high-precision state of the art weapons yet still manages to kill three times more civilians and children than perpetrators."
ReplyDeleteIf you fire rockets from childrens schools and hide 'perpetrators' amongst the civilians, what exactly do you expect?
Great analogy. I quite agree.
ReplyDeleteThank you Verlin for regurgitating that bog standard piece of propaganda. Most edifying.
ReplyDeleteI bet you don't chew your food before swallowing it either. I'll remember not to dine with you.
just because you agree with terrorists wolfie doesn't mean you should be a rude idiot no?
