Al Qaeda Nerve Gas Attack on UK Parliament Foiled, Turkish ship jumpers, RCMP/Gov. Personnel to Kandahar, Why is Top Sniper Leaving the Military? &

"RCMP officers and government development personnel are arriving in Kandahar this week to bolster an experimental force that mixes civilians, the police and military." -- "an integrated approach." threatened, however, by the instability




So why is he leaving the military?

Tarred with ugly brush -- Top Canadian sniper quits in frustration -- "he shot an al-Qaida fighter in Afghanistan from 2,430 metres, a world record." Jeremy Loome, Edmonton Sun, Aug. 21, 05 via Jack's Newswatch

[. . . . ] His unit was so effective that their American counterparts wanted to work with them whenever possible, and some observers have credited them with almost single-handedly getting Canada onto the list of countries targeted for al-Qaida revenge.

Perry said he just has a natural talent for gathering intelligence and killing from distance. There's not much call for that in Canada so he is looking abroad for work.

"My passion is the military and what I was doing. I would want to carry on with that kind of role somewhere in the world, maybe in security or mercenary work," he said.

Link for why he is leaving. What do you think? One ex-military man (John Davis, I think) who knows something about mercenaries and who was interviewed by Ann Medina after the film, "The Dogs of War" reported that the film is a fairly accurate portrayal of the lives of a group of mercenaries, who in the film staged a coup in a small, vicious, dictator-controlled African country. I hate violence and normally I would have turned it off but I'm glad that I didn't. I actually became interested in it. As Davis--I think it was--remarked, mercenaries do the work that legitimate governments need to have done but don't want to be seen to do. So, Master Cpl. Arron Perry will become a mercenary.

[. . . . Perry] was accused of discreditable conduct

[. . . . ] The investigation was eventually dropped and no charges were ever laid, but Perry's reputation was left in tatters.

Put yourself in the place of one who has seen what he has seen of death, blood and dismemberment; then ask yourself what you would have felt, perhaps done. Dispassionate killing? No human emotions, perhaps even 'actions unbecoming'? Perhaps we do not want to know what is unleashed when societies "cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war".



Nothing will happen here?

Turkish ship jumpers

Hunt on in Quebec for five Turkish ship jumpers -- potential "refugees"? -- No problem. Get in that line for benefits and $$$ to help you survive, compliments of Canadians who keep voting in the Lieberal/Librano$ -- party of diversity, multiculturalism, and terrorist enablers. Being polite Canadians, we won't even ask about possible terrorist connections. Step right up and WELCOME!


350 Bombs in an Hour – A Vision of the Terrible Future? August 18, 2005

Admittedly, the bombs were small affairs and Bangladesh is a country few outside its region pay much attention to. But still – as reported by Shafiq Alam and Helen Rowe in the Australian – the bombing campaign on August 17 was extraordinary and presumably without precedent:...

Al-Qaeda eyes a 9/11 for satellites

Experts are warning that al-Qaeda has the desire -- and the knowledge -- to take out satellites. Dawn Rae Downton reports on the devastating impact such an attack would have on business, communications -- and the American military. [. . . . ]

'Major al-Qaeda attack foiled' BBC, January 24, 2003

"[The police] have broken up a major terrorist network... linked in this case to the Algerian Salafist group, a splinter of the Armed Islamic Group (GIA), which has clear connections with the criminal organisation of Bin Laden," he said.

Interior Minister Angel Acebes said suspicious resins, fuels and other chemicals were being examined, along with electronic equipment, detonators and remote controls for use in bomb-making.

Mr Acebes said the suspects were divided into two groups, both led by Algerians.

A suspect named as Mohamad Tahraqui was said to be in charge of the Barcelona-based group, while the other operated out of Banolas in neighbouring Gerona province under the leadership of a man named as Bard Eddin Ferdji. [. . . . ]

"Russia's Turning Muslim, Says Mufti" August 6, 2005

That's the startling headline in the Times of London today. Ravil Gaynutdin, head of the Council of Muftis of Russia, announced that Russia's population of 144 million contains 23 million ethnic Muslims – and not, as the census indicates, 14.5 million, or, as the Orthodox Church estimates, nearer to 20 million. An estimated 3-4 million Muslims... [. . . . ]

Haven't I heard of the revenge of the cradle somewhere else? Unfortunately, with the advent of feminism, the demise of "the church" and its control of behaviour through a believing community's disapproval, and the allure of freedom from the traditional job of mothering in favour of work and consuming, it is now necessary to import people who will breed. Be careful what you wish for.
