Crafty Cameron dodges difficult questions

“The leader of genius must have the ability to make different opponents

appear as if they belonged to one category.” – Adolf Hitler.


Those words appear in Alan Bullock’s biography, as he describes Hitler’s formative years. The current British PM David Cameron has been a career politician for many years now. Following the recent riots in England, Cameron has shown the British public that he has a sound grasp of the power principle laid down by Hitler in Landsberg in 1924.

We’ve all sat aghast as those riots have engulfed England’s major cities. The latest incident the media has presented us with is footage of someone running down two police officers. A man has now been arrested in connection with this, and Detective Inspector Cliff Haines has said that the incident will be treated as attempted murder. (Link 1.) (Link 2.)

David Cameron has said that “Pockets of our society are not just broken but are frankly sick.” (See link.) One can’t help wondering what pockets of society Mr. Cameron is referring to, given the privileged social status of some of the rioters. (See link.) In addition, Mr. Cameron has said that “I have described some parts of our society as sick, and there is none sicker than the EDL.” (See link.)

The perpetrators of the crimes we have seen in our streets, whatever their social status, are children of the state. They have been brought up to believe what the state has been preaching for years now. If you’ve ever had to walk down the other side of the street from a bunch of ‘hoodies’, then you’ve seen the vacant arrogance in their eyes as they slouch on past. Visit any city centre on a Saturday night, and you’ll see young people whose reason for living is to attack their own consciousness with alcohol and other drugs, and who will not hesitate to employ physical violence against each other, or anyone else who gets in their way. Ask any experienced teacher, and they’ll tell you that there are children in our schools, and walking our streets today, who have no respect for anyone, or anything – not even themselves. Our country is no longer what it was.

For years, the state in Britain has undermined the concept of personal responsibility. Only in Great Britain, for example, is a local council able to order someone to take down barbed wire around their own property in case any burglars get hurt. (See link.) The philosophical position behind that is so empty of morality, so intellectually corrupt, that it's difficult for anyone from my generation to believe it can even happen. But throughout recent years the state has taken - and enforced - the position that the perpetrator of a crime must not be seen as a lawbreaker who deserves what's coming to him. No, the perpetrator must be seen as a victim. Small wonder that fifteen year old kids now see nothing wrong in criminal behaviour.

The MP for North West Leicestershire Andrew Bridgen has asked David Cameron whether he agrees that the riots are "symptomatic of the no-blame, no-responsibility culture that has undermined our society and led us to this sorry state." (See link.) The Prime Minister dodged the question, and said that the rioters were acting criminally. We all know that we have been witnessing criminal acts. But restating the symptoms does not address the underlying cause of Britain's current sickness.

The EDL only exist because the traditional British values which our country fought to defend in World War II have been abandoned by our political leaders. We all know that the traditional values we were brought up with have been undermined by the state. And we all know that the symptoms we see Great Britain presenting with now are not the same thing as the underlying sickness. Anyone visiting their GP with a set of symptoms that indicated a serious illness would, of course, be treated for the illness. If you were to sit in your health centre and explain your symptoms to your GP, and they simply read them back to you and concluded that you were ill, that would be completely unacceptable. If our society is indeed sick, then the Prime Minister's reponse to Andrew Bridgen is just as unacceptable.

The EDL knows, just as any morally sane person who's been living in Britain for the last twenty years or so knows, that the politicians who have deliberately undermined their own country, abandoned its values, and betrayed the very people they were elected to represent have brought about the sickness which we now see the patient presenting with. David Cameron doesn't want to hear that though. He doesn't even want it said.

Another symptom of the sick country which we now live in is the unreality of political correctness, an imaginary state of affairs that does not, and never will, actually exist. In that counterfeit existence, no one is permitted to introduce reality, for to do so would be to expose the evil demon behind the deceit. To acknowledge reality is to admit that the politically correct world is not real.

As the writer Melanie Phillips has said, those who have invested in the cultural deceit of PC cannot respond to rational criticism because their position is not based in factual reality. They must necessarily respond to criticism by engaging in unfounded, logically irrelevant, ad hominem attacks. That's all they have. (See link.)

David Cameron's efforts to smear the English Defence League at a time when England needs to be defended are therefore no more surprising than the riots we have just witnessed. Those with eyes to see understand very well just what the British Prime Minister is doing when he employs a strategy taken straight from the pages of Mein Kampf in order to avoid having to listen to some hard truths. By doing so, David Cameron has shown the world that despite having a first from Oxford, he is no genius.

The Daily Catch Videos for 1-26-2011: The possible revolution in Egypt

These are from Vlad Tepes and there are several to view. Wondering who is responsible for these riots and demonstrations turning violent? My pick is the muslim brotherhood which has been very active inside egypt for decades. This is the same muslim brotherhood that was spawned from the bowels of hell by the grand mufti who was in 'love' with hitler for what he wanted to do to the Jews, and hitler was in 'love' with the grand mufti because it was the mufti's idea to kill off the Jews in Europe. Please share these and help make them spread like far and wide. There are a few more over on VT site that I did not post here.


If this completely blows up we already know on whose side the muslim in the White House will support, just like he did with the those who were fighting for freedom in iran.

Egypt protests: Eyewitness accounts

Thousands of people took part in rare anti-government protests in Egypt after an internet campaign inspired by the uprising in Tunisia.

In Cairo, where the biggest rallies were held, police used tear gas and water cannons in an attempt to disperse the crowds. At least three people have been killed, reports say.


Here, eyewitnesses describe the atmosphere during the day’s events


Abd-Allah, Cairo resident
I saw the riot with my own eyes. We were out in the morning, we didn’t intend to protest, but we were caught up in it. I saw the police arresting everybody in a restaurant. Shortly afterwards we went home as it was too dangerous to stay out.


Now we are watching from the window what is happening outside. I hear people chanting: “Down with the president.” I’ve seen the police using tear gas against protesters, though I haven’t seen any violence. People are behaving as if they are ready to die. They keep pushing forwards.


Some people say that they won’t stop until Mubarak is gone. The noise from the street is increasing not decreasing even though it is 2230 (2030 GMT). There are more people now than during the day. There are people gathered downtown where the parliament building is located. I have friends among the crowd and they tell me what is happening. The atmosphere is very tense, it feels like a revolution. I see people who are determined, people who have nothing to lose, people who want a better future.


This protest is different. Previous protests would last about an hour, this seems to be much larger, much longer. I think this could bring only violence. Mubarak is so power hungry, he would do anything to hang on to power. If people keep on pushing, many will end up in jail.


Hussein, protester, Cairo I participated in the protests today. I have to say I was surprised by the number of people who attended. These high numbers are unusual in Egypt. People are afraid to speak out, but it seems that what happened in Tunisia encouraged many to protest in Egypt.


On the streets it seemed that the police were trying to avoid confrontation with the protesters, at least at the beginning of the day. Many of the senior officers were ordering the soldiers not to make any contact. They were only trying to form a cordon around the demonstrators, that was in Shobra.


But when our protest broke the cordon and joined with the major protest in El Tahrir, we found that it was more violent there. Although it was a peaceful protest, the police threw tear gas and fired/sprayed water canons.

Some protesters threw rocks at the police, which the police threw back. Most protesters however were trying not to be violent and many people were discouraging any acts of violence against the police.


I got the feeling in the end that the police were trying to make the protest go violent – that would give them an excuse to beat and arrest the protesters


Courtney Graves, American living in Giza
I went alone to Tahrir square today – my Egyptian friends seemed to think that the demonstration wouldn’t live up to the hype.


But news of the incredible turnout had reached my friend Gehad and she was fervently trying to find someone to accompany her into the city. She never made it to the demonstration but she at least let me know what to expect. I surfaced from the Metro station into a scene of happy panic. Riot police were lined up along every street and it was almost impossible to move at first. From afar, I could hear a roar of human voices coming from one side of the square.


I managed to find higher ground to stand on and I saw an immense mass of people making their way towards where I was standing. I saw as they managed to get past the authorities restraining them and they were finally able to express the anger so evident in their faces.


As the group passed me I joined them. Emotions were so high and passions so great it was almost tangible. I’ve never seen men so angry, yet so happy to be expressing their anger.


I walked next to girls in hijabs (Islamic headscarves) screaming for the downfall of Hosni Mubarak. I walked behind men begging God for freedom. In the middle of the tumult, I spotted two Muslim men praying in the middle of the sidewalk.


I soon heard screams from behind me and realised that the police had sent tear gas canisters flying into the air. Everyone began to run away from the source.


Fortunately, I avoided the full force of the gas but my fellow protesters were not so lucky. Screams for water filled the air as men dropped to their knees, covering their faces. I saw one little girl furiously rubbing her eyes as tears streamed down her face.


I stayed for another hour, on the sidelines. I felt different about Egypt as I walked away, like the political stagnancy had finally come to an end. As I walked across a bridge to Zamalek I could still hear chants coming from Tahrir, “Horreyya, Horreyya, Horreyya!” – “Freedom, freedom, freedom!”
