The war on terror is a marketing campaign

for a certain type of politics

We are being sold a threat that doesn't exist

It is the equivalent of those ads which preach

the existence of nasty germs in the kitchen

hoping to sell you disinfectants

I'm 100 times more scared of the corporate

controlled media and the police state of Britain

than any two-bit "terrorist" with

a can of petrol and a bag of nails

They'll be locking up "Asian looking men"

for fun providing even more cause than the million+

Iraqis we've helped murder since 2003 Great!

TWAT [The Wat Against Terror]

So here we go - the BIG SELL, Forget the fact that the jeep drove into bollards outside the airport (which shows what a professional lot they were- couldn't even do a recce) or that the petrol was in neatly labelled tins.

Or that the nails and such in the Merc were all on the floor where it wouldn't be of any use to anyone or that the propane was in canisters that may well not have even exploded.

Forget all that - this doesn't prove that the so called terrorists are rank amateurs and that the whole ' threat' is barely existent and utterly overblown.

No, no, no. this proves it's more dangerous, this proves we require more legislation taking away our liberties, this crass incompetence proves we're more at risk.

SPIN SPIN SPIN - last year we were subjected to a load of nonsense about people mixing bombs in airplane toilets (where incidentally its often quite difficult to even stand up).

And suitcases found in the woods and letter of suicide bombers and so on AND IT ALL PROVED TO BE UTTER NONSENSE.

Repeat after me, no one was charged or tried, half the people didn't even have tickets or passports.

The war against terror is a marketing campaign for a certain type of politics.

We are being sold a threat that doesn't exist - it is the equivalent of those ads which preach the existence of nasty germs in the kitchen hoping to sell you disinfectants.

NO more no less and once again the media have gone along with it - hyped it even more actually and once again everyone is being suckered and fleeced.

I hope all these people putting out this sort of nonsense sleep well at night.

The reason why the latest attempts seem so amateur is because they are just that.

Initial events perpetrated by Al-Qaeda, an organisation that evolved from the CIA funded mujahadeen movement during the Afghan war we very slick, using high technology as they were co-ordinated by certain entities within security service structures, both in the west and East.

Now the western reaction t these false flag attacks has been so Islamophobic, the latest events are carried out by radicalised home grown talent, teaching themselves rather than being militarily trained.

I know this sounds nuts, but I truly believe this to be the case.

I am a firm believer in certain segments of society, be they western or eastern, requiring disruption in oil markets in order to maintain price and to engineer hostilities in order to maintain the arms industries and associated support industries.

BBC breakfast news this morning was a disgusting play of fear mongering and imperial propaganda.

They were talking to the counter-terrorist expert (the one who's eaten all the pies) and framed the debate beautifully with a slick "so when are you bringing in the 90 days" detention of suspects].

No qualification, no alternative just when is it coming, cause we obviously need it.

I'm 100 times more scared of the corporate controlled media and the police state of Britain than any two-bit "terrorist" with a can of petrol and a bag of nails.

They'll be locking up "Asian looking men" for fun providing even more cause than the million+ Iraqis we've helped murder since 2003. Great!

The point is that the government could have chosen any number of responses to these clumsy attacks - the government choose the most overblown.

The one most calculated to terrify people, the one most inclined to magnify the threat, the one most likely to inflame the situation.

And the one which exaggerated the threat the most.

Why - the comparison with the 80's and 90's Northern Ireland situation when the IRA was bombing London regularly - real bombs with real deaths - is crucial here because in that instance the government ( Thatcher's govt) and the media underplayed the threat.

Now they over play it. Why?

And what a coincidence. The attacks came the day after Mr Brown came into office and none of the people involved are UK citizens - Thus the alarm bells should start ringing, as they should have done after 9/11.

Secondly (for those who do the research) Al-Qaeda's objective is to establish a single caliphate and using that mandate to reform the arab world , nothing more nothing less.

Contrary to popular neo-con opinion, they do not want to rule the world!

They have asked the occupying powers to leave Iraq and Afganistan many times before resorting to violence.

The colonial borders established after WW2 are no longer acceptable to Al-Qaeda philosophy, nor is any form of corrupt Kingoms (eg Saudi), hence they want internal reform. And to be honest given the corrupt Arab governments, who could blame them?

Thirdly, Mr Blair only the other day stated that he doesnt understand the gripes of the muslim community in the UK and that they are not "hard done by" - and further continues to deny a link between UK attacks and Iraq.

What a stupid, STUPID man. Anybody who cannot grasp that basic link and says that muslims in the UK are not affected when the UK US is blowing the arms and legs of their religious brethren in Iraq is not intelligent enough for a high tower inner-city chav, never mind a PM.

Every Friday up and down England masses of people congregate on a Friday at Mosque to pray for the children who have had their limbs blown off by UK and US radioactive bombs et al.

This causes hatred and consequence. There is a saying about glass houses and that is certainly true in this case. Collated by Ed Stong
