We really have been a disappointment to the Freepers over the last week.
... as witness the concern here about the BBC.

What failures we are. We've coped with the Bombings. We're getting on with the investigation to arrest anyone concerned who wasn't killed on the day. We're not demonizing the muslim community. Goddam it, we're not even INVADING anywhere!!

Terrible.

BTW Can we get "The American Thinker" under the Trades Description Act?

1. That site -
all muted, tasteful colours and all, has the look of a sober and sensible online journal...

...until you actually read the damn thing and see what codswallop it is!

Aaaarrrgghh. Too many crazy people. My brain hurts.

2. Those Brits aren't rounding-up Muslims into internment camps
It's liberal Political Correctness gone mad!!

Maybe these Freepnuts should read some history of the British Empire. We trashed India and Ireland in the way they want to trash the Middle East, I can't say either of those worked-out.

3. What I will never, ever forgive the Freepers for after last week ...
... is their pure ENJOYMENT of the situation. They really are glad that it happened to give Shrub a boost when he was flagging in the polls and, through the crocodile tears, they're using it to criticise all that's best in British and European society.

The memory of how we regarded 9/11 is surely long faded.

When their downfall comes, I hope it hurts llike hell.

4. If Karma exists I hope it gets them
I just can't comprehend how such people are devoid of any human feeling.

15. They fucking loved it.
What a well-respected and valued ally we are to them. They see us as walking targets, cannon fodder - both politically and literally - and they fully expect us to be grateful for the role.

Fucking vermin. 'Scuse my French.

5. And long may we continue to be so.
This fucker obviously got that one from Fox News - the report that the Head of BBC News said was "beneath contempt".

6. After the head of BBC News said that, Fox came out with another
They decided that reporting fears of a backlash against Muslims was 'political correctness'. Yes, according to them, when a Muslim gets killed and it might be a hate crime, the media should keep quiet; they slagged off the BBC and NPR in the USA for daring to mention it. The airwaves should be wall-to-wall "it was Muslims that did it".

Isn't this what lynching was all about - people saying that it's no-one else's business is a bunch of bigots decide to kill minorities?

7. Makes sense. Neoconnery and the Christian Taliban were brought to you ...
... by those wonderful people who brought you slavery, lynching, the Klu Klux Klan, McCarthyism and Iced Tea with Too Much Bloody Sugar In It.

8. We must be doing something right.
Good old BBC. I thought they did a brilliant job of containing popular feeling and keeping argument within rational grounds.

9. I was looking for somewhere to answer or comment on that rabid lunacy
but couldn't find it. That really fucks me off. What a fucking insulting prick. Saying we are weak cos we don't immediately condemn Islam and set about murdering thousands of Muslims. And them pointing to our high point as being the control of India.

What a clueless cunt. Sorry for the language but he seemed to be salivating at the fact that 60 of our countrymen and women have been slaughtered.

Fuck him and fuck all those clueless right wing racist fucks who would bring hell to this planet if it wasn't for us keeping them in check. fuck em all

12. Another piece of freeper nuttiness here.
I don't know whether to laugh at them for being so thick or just :puke: at all the bigotry.

http://americandaily.com/article/8162

Apparently the ‘stiff upper lip’ British resolve of the days of Germany’s Blitz has metastasized into a laissez fair “life goes on” myopia. Maybe if it had been the French who bombed the plaque off the teeth of London in pique for having lost the 2012 Olympics the UK would be more annoyed? Islamist terrorists don’t apparently merit antipathy comparable to centuries old Franco-British feuds.

London was not targeted because Tony Blair supports George Bush in Iraq or in the war on terror. London was hit because they are ‘western’ and do not subscribe to the perverted gospel according to al Qaida and their ilk.

Three sophisticated bombs were detonated in the London Underground within a minute of each other. It was classic al Qaida style. Although the al Qaida connection has not been verified, what occurred July 7th in London IS what they do…and HOW they do it.
Even the casual observer can comprehend the detonations were by synchronized timers and not martyrdom wannabe suicide bombers. A double-decker bus (a virtual tourism symbol for London) blew up an hour after the initial synchronized explosions
The explosions were so destructive authorities have been unable to identify a single body. Analysts are examining fingerprints, dental records and shredded flesh for DNA analysis.
Rather than righteous indignation and annoyance at the inconvenience to their commute, Londoners have every justification to go sling-blade on the bastards:

· Issue a Brigade of double-0 licenses to kill
· Unleash the SAS
· Militarize soccer fans….

14. The Sterling Times nutcases were drooling over that one yesterday.
Most of them are BNP fellow-travellers and were excited by the reports of Neo-Nazi soccer fans doing a spot of muslim-bashing.

17. Interesting ideas....
· Issue a Brigade of double-0 licenses to kill
I've mentioned before that Bin Laden is nothing more than a Bond villain, he fits all the requirements (rich, private army, untouchable, etc.). Send in Sean Connery (or his son Jason Connery, would that be neoconnery?) alone, with a crap pistol. We either get rid of an annoying Scot's nationalist who lives anywhere but Scotland or he finds Bin Laden, perfect.
· Unleash the SAS
Until Sean Connery finds Bin Laden there's nowhere to unleash them to.
· Militarize soccer fans….
We're too busy trying to find pubs that show obscure pay-per-view sports channels (Setanta Sports) in an attempt to get our footy fix.

Here's an alternative, we get together with the rest of the Commonwealth and persuade them that the country really responsible for the bombings was the US. The combined armies of countless nations mobilize in Canada and the West Indies to prepare for a two-pronged assault on the US. France would probably join up too, just for the hell of it.

19. Perhaps they cannot stand the relative maturity and courage of our society
"Three sophisticated bombs were detonated in the London Underground "

I don't know about "sophisticated". I think that it is tonight's Evening Standard that says that homemade explosive remains effective for only about three weeks, and so the bombers were in a hurry to use it - but even by yesterday it had "gone off" (or whatever one says about explosives). And, thank God, gave the police a "forensic bonanza" to work on.

And the authorities have identified the bodies.
