Pommie Twit sez "Skyscrapers Suck!!"
Another load
of bilge in The Independent, brought to us by the very silly
Janet Street-Porter, as she recoils in horror from the prospect of constructing
more large buildings at the WTC site. You really should read the whole
thing, but I had the highlight the conclusion.
If the anti-globalisation
movement means anything at all, it is that commerce has to be conducted
differently in the future. A 90-storey building, like a Big Mac, sends
out all the wrong messages. Surely it's time to go back to the drawing
board.
No further commentary
required.

The deep thoughts of The Independent readers: "Americans are
Wimps"
Check out this
thread at The Independent's discussion boards;
I
keep hearing this talk about how brave and courageous Americans are,
whereas Arabs are said to be these huge cowards. Let's face the facts,
America has revealed itself to be the biggest coward in the world.
Think
about it:
Saudi
Arabia is where all the terrorists have come from. Not Iraq.
North Korea looks like it is on the verge of having nukes. Not Iraq.
Iran is in the process of getting nukes - not Iraq.
But
who is America choosing to attack? They choose to attack the country
that they have spent the last ten years disarming. They choose to attack
the country that has no significant weapons, communications, economy
or infrastructure. They choose to attack the country to which they have
complete knowledge of its defenses and capabilites gained in the last
ten years.
That
is who America picks as its enemy. Recruit the 'brave' pilots that bombed
the fleeing IRaqis during the gulf war.
Shoot
them down out of their 1975 jeeps with your three billion dollar planes.
Use your ten thousand dollar guns with your infrared binoculars. Then
come back to the US and tell the world what heroes you are.
There
was a three times greater chance of dying in Washington DC, then there
was of dying in the gulf war and most of that was from 'friendly' fire
What
a laugh.
Courage
is comitting yourself to die for a cause that you believe in. Courage
is when a tiny island nation stands up to American intervention despite
constant assasination attempts and American terrorism. Courage is standing
up to organized military with sticks and rocks.
Americans
know nothing about courage now. They were once a proud and brave country
but no longer. Now they are filled with imperialists seeking out pretenses
to declare war on the weakest opponent they can locate.
(well the weakest
opponent would be Tuvalu, but why quibble with a writer of such intellectual
depth?)

What I want for Christmas
I'm not particularly
interested in guns, but I want one of these....
The Barrett M99 .50
Cal single-shot bolt-action sniper rifle. The price? A paltry
US$3,300
I wouldn't mind one
of these either....
The Barrett M82A1
- a larger, heavier semi-automatic version of the above. All mine for
a mere US$7,300
The ultimate politically
incorrect toy. Mwahahaha.
