Breakdown of law and order ...

Obeying the law — Dalton’s going to think about it , By Arthur Weinreb, Associate Editor, Thursday, August 10, 2006
www.canadafreepress.com/2006/weinreb081006.htm


On Tuesday, Justice David Marshall of the Ontario Superior Court issued his latest ruling concerning the land dispute in Caledonia. Marshall ordered that negotiations between the province and the natives cease and that the natives who are illegally occupying the land be removed. (The province has just announced that they will be appealing Judge Marshall’s ruling).

The natives, to no one’s surprise, refused to comply with the order, saying in effect that white man’s laws don’t apply to them. But what did Dear Fearful Leader,otherwise known as Dalton McGuinty, have to say about the lawful order of one of Her Majesty’s justices? [....]




Inadequate security


RCMP unable to pursue organized crime -- report: Lacking manpower ,

OTTAWA - The RCMP squad that tracks down dirty money and goods obtained through crime cannot pursue the majority of cases it knows about due to lack of manpower, internal documents reveal.

According to an internal evaluation obtained by CanWest News Service, for each case the Mounties' Integrated Proceeds of Crime (IPOC) unit chooses to tackle, "at least four or five others" are ignored because the manpower isn't there.

[....] significant organized crime figures [....]

outlaw motorcycle gangs and Italian, Russian and Asian organized crime.

Although the Conservative government announced in its spring budget $37-million to expand the RCMP's training facilities in Regina and $161-million for prosecutors and 1,000 officers, it is unclear exactly where that money will go. In addition, the Commissioner's testimony revealed the amount likely won't be nearly enough to fulfill the promise.

Malone said the fact IPOC hasn't had a boost since 1996 means numerous cutbacks have been made to operations.

[....] You’re banned from bringing a bottle of water on board because it could be a bomb in disguise. So instead you’ll buy one on the plane. No biggie.
But where does that bottle of water come from?

“It comes from a caterer’s truck that is driven through a gate where it isn’t inspected — and it gets put on the plane,” says Kenny. Banning liquids “would be fine if the stuff being brought on the plane was being inspected — but it’s not.”

Kenny’s committee has been warning for nearly five years that our airports are plagued by organized crime — criminal gangs involved in thievery, drugs, smuggling. It’s only a matter of time, he argues, before they form an alliance with an Islamist terror group wanting to place weapons or bomb components aboard a plane. (His committee heard evidence that Pearson alone may have been infiltrated by five to seven gangs.) Screening — and training — of these workers is vastly inadequate. [....]

Kenny reminds us that terrorist bombs have already been placed on planes in Canada — twice. [....]


And what has been and still is the mainstream media's big story? The Prime Minister is in the North; he did not attend the command performance of collective hand wringing, the AIDS Conference in Toronto.




The AIDS conference--a few questions not asked

While I would wish AIDS on nobody, I have to shake my head at the hoo-ha that has characterized the opening of the AIDS' conference in Toronto. It did not take the opening speaker long to single out PM Harper as callous and (the secret that does not dare speak its name) homophobic. The fact that he sent his Health Minister does not count. Enough. Here are the questions not being asked, and therefore, not answered, as far as media reports go.

a) Why after 25 years of AIDS being identified in Uganda and the Congo does the continent still suffer from this preventable disease? One that has blown out of control in southern Africa?

b) Why was Prime Minister Harper singled out, when South Africa's President Mbeki has gone on record as refuting the HIV as precursor to AIDS? He holds the novel idea that poverty is the real culprit. Or Mugabe, who gives some treatment only to his loyal followers?

c) Why does the gay community of Canada have so many new cases, when the education on it has been deafening for decades?

d) Who exactly is paying for this extravagant conference?

e) Why does Stephen Lewis insist on demanding retroviral drugs for millions of Africans, when most of that money should go to preventive measures? It worked in Southeast Asia. Is he admitting that the sexual promiscuity which afflicts all of southern Africa is so engrained as to be a permanent feature?

f) Why have the new treatments not been the focus, rather than the plea to empty our wallets for another failed scheme?

g) Why has CBC zeroed in on, and repeatedly mentioned, the 100 African grandmothers--brought at government expense--rather than question why some of them are caretakers for four of their children's children? What caused those four to die? Their own behaviour?

h) Finally, when does the concept of some individual responsiblity for becoming infected kick in?

Bud Talkinghorn--Prime Minister Harper sends his Health Minister, Tony Clement, who is heralded as a man deeply involved in stopping AIDS; yet, Min. Clement is roundly booed by the crowd. His real crime was not being left-wing enough, I gather.


My comment: a timesaver

At least seven times over a two hour period, at a conservative estimate, CBC railed against PM Harper over not attending the AIDS conference. It will be the same all day. The coalition of Liberals, MSM, NDP, assorted leftist groups and the usual hangers on, combined with an international group flown to Toronto to badmouth our PM and try to get money will be reported on ad nauseam today. Enjoy the sun. You know what they're going to say. PM Harper didn't attend the AIDS love-in and bitch session. Oh, woe. The fact that the Minister of Health, Tony Clement was there made absolutely NO DIFFERENCE. The object is to malign the Conservative government. Stephen Lewis makes great sport of it. Who appointed this man? A fool?




Memory Lane: Previous AIDS conference news

How much did it cost to fly 20,000 people in for an AIDS talkfest? Could that money have been better spent? There could have been communication via the internet and telephone. Maybe these people simply wanted a conference and a trip? But Canadians are so 'nice' and they wouldn't say that, would they?

Is enough being done to prevent Aids? , 17 July, 2002, 10:47 GMT 11:47 UK
news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi
/talking_point/2082351.stm

There are comments on both sides; I happen to agree with these. Except for children born with AIDS and those who have been infected via blood transfusion, it is a behavioural disease.


[....] I've got a good father dying of prostate cancer and a friend with lung cancer. Ask me if I'm willing to pay more to stop a behaviourally-induced disease in Africa or one that kills people in the USA at a ratio of probably 50:1. It's my tax money and if you don't mind, I'd rather it go towards stopping cancer in the world. Is that saying I don't think Aids is a terrible disease? Of course I do. But you can't give me a valid reason why I should be more worried about Zimbabweans and those from Botswana than my own people. You say it should be because of the turmoil it will cause - Rwanda had 1,000,000 killed just a few years ago. Turmoil is already alive and well there! I pray for the Aids sufferers, but my hand is going out to my own people first. [....]

The US taxpayers should not have to bear the burden of paying for drugs for Aids sufferers all over the world. Aids/HIV is a behavioural disease (except for the case of transfusion victims). Those who CHOOSE abstinence before marriage and faithfulness in marriage have no need to fear. Those who CHOOSE to engage in sexual promiscuity and intravenous drug use have plenty of reasons to fear. People still have not admitted to themselves that sexual promiscuity and intravenous drug use is [sic] the over-riding cause of Aids/HIV. [....]

Husky, to everyone's surprise, lunged to surpass stalwart Shell Canada Ltd. as Canada's third-largest integrated oil-and-gas company by market capitalization.

The value of Husky in the stock market is now around $34.5-billion, trailing Imperial Oil Ltd. at $43.8-billion and Suncor Energy Inc. at $43.3-billion, but ahead of Shell at $32.8-billion and with a huge lead on Petro-Canada, at $25.8-billion. [....]

Not bad for an investment of just over $800-million by Li Ka-shing, Asia's richest man, who controls 70% of Husky's stock either directly or through his company, Hutchison Whampoa Ltd.

Sensible appointment -- re: Khan , Aug. 13, 06, Ezra Levant
calsun.canoe.ca/News/Columnists
/Levant_Ezra/2006/08/14/1753561.html


[....] He is a true Muslim moderate, and one of the few Canadian Muslims willing to say so publicly, even at risk to himself.

[....] That is, he shows better and more discriminating judgment than the rest of his party, who, under Jean Chretien and Paul Martin, would consort with even the most radical Muslim elements. Even now, the Liberal party has allowed its other Muslim MP from Mississauga, Omar Alghabra, to issue extreme statements to the press, whitewashing Hezbollah terrorism and claiming Israel deliberately hurts civilians.

Khan's agreement to work for Harper is a minor political victory. But it is actually an important step in strengthening moderate Islam in Canada. The Liberals have agreed to tolerate Alghabra and his ilk.

Perhaps that's another reason why Khan felt more at home with Harper and his.

In Canada, we reject the idea of authorities tapping phones or checking e-mails, etc.

But the reality is that we have to sacrifice some rights to privacy for the greater security of the country.

And we have to trust our security forces — CSIS, RCMP, provincial and local police intelligence, even military intelligence — more than we usually do, and certainly more than editorialists, commentators, political activists and civil liberty buffs would prefer.

[....]In fact, a case can be made that Canada’s security, as well as Britain’s and perhaps America’s, depends on Muslims who know better than anyone where extremism is being fomented, what’s being said in the mosques, and perhaps what’s being planned.

Hamas Columnist: Hizbullah's Victory in Lebanon Opens the Door for a Third Intifada , August 13, 2006, Special Dispatch Series - No. 1246, via newsbeat1
memri.org/bin/latestnews.cgi?ID=SD124606


In his August 7, 2006 column in the Hamas semiweekly Al-Risala, under the title "Victory in Lebanon – Towards a Third Intifada," Ibrahim Abu Heija' encourages Hamas to use what he sees as Hizbullah's victory as a springboard for a third Palestinian intifada.

The following are excerpts from the article:(1)

"The Greatest Beneficiary [of the Victory in Lebanon] Will Ultimately Be the Palestinian Resistance"

"What has become evident from the ongoing battles in the proud and resistant south of Lebanon is the confirmation of Israel's failure in achieving its goals and the confirmation of the decline in its deterrence capability in comparison with what it was before it got embroiled in the Lebanese quagmire – despite the bloody slaughters that Israel committed against unarmed civilians...

"What is noteworthy here is not only the collapse of the Israeli defense doctrine in the face of a well-organized community possessed of faith and will, such as Hizbullah, but what is more important in the Israeli loss is to examine the consequences of the victory and its implications on additional levels.

"Hizbullah, which achieved the victory, will be the least of those who benefit from this victory, due to certain considerations relevant to the Lebanese arena, which is based on sectarian division. This does not mean that it will not gain greater strength and legitimacy than it had before, particularly since the Israeli aggression, as is evident, proceeds without direction and without any reckoning of consequences, and therefore gets itself entangled in guerilla warfare, in which Hizbullah is unsurpassed in its skill, and has a Syrian and Iranian backing that denies it nothing in terms of arms, money, support, and protection.

[....] Scotland Yard police are questioning a husband and wife who allegedly planned to hide a liquid bomb in their baby's bottle to bring down an airliner, newspaper reports said.

They are among the 23 suspects arrested over the plot to blow up airliners headed for the United States in mid-flight.

Mr Keelty today expressed dismay at the alleged plan to use a child in a suicide mission.

"The phenomena of suicide bombings as a new way of taking part in terror attacks is in itself concerning, but to think or imagine that anybody would use an innocent child to join them is even more disconcerting," he told the Nine Network. [....]

Plans Destroyed -- A terror plot foiled; experts react., by Daniel Pipes, National Review Online, August 11, 2006
www.danielpipes.org/article/3846


[....] (2) Airplanes represent an outdated target because passenger screening techniques quickly adapt to threats. As soon as terrorists implement new techniques (box-cutters, shoe-bombs, liquid components), security promptly blocks them. (One cannot but wonder, however, why creatively, cops invariably lag behind criminals.) Conversely, trains, subways, and buses, as shown by attacks in Madrid, London, and Bombay, offer far richer opportunities for terrorists, for access to them can never be so strictly controlled as to aircraft.

(3) Massive terror plots of this sort (another example: the "Toronto 17" arrested in June) are unwieldy and more easily uncovered than small-scale terror that involves only one or two persons. The Beltway Snipers, who in October 2002 terrorized the Washington, D.C., area, offer a prime counterexample. [....]

Border Patrol Agents Railroaded by OIG & U.S. Attorney - 08-06-06 If you think the Federal government won't go after you with everything they have for doing your job, you need to read this story. As we all know, it's usually the hardest working agents who get into the most "trouble". Ms. Kanof, the AUSA who went after these two agents said this, in support of her case: "It is a violation of Border Patrol regulations to go after someone who is fleeing" and "The Border Patrol pursuit policy prohibits the pursuit of someone." Yes, Ms. Kanof, that's why we refer to it as the "Border Patrol Non-Pursuit Policy". Any smuggler worth his salt knows that he should run like hell when he sees the red and blue lights come on, and that we generally aren't supposed to chase him. OIG, the AUSA, and some local agencies have no higher glory than going after a Border Patrol agent. These two agents obviously made a few mistakes (not reporting that you fired your weapon is usually a 5-day suspension), but twenty years in prison? Read the entire story here

Years ago, parents did not leave teenagers home alone, for any reason. They knew. Tempus fugit ... and along with it, common sense.

Surely, that should tell parents that teens have a problem with balancing being liked, friends, the home and their own safety.
