A truely sad day for all Dutch
Today movie maker, columnist and chain-smoker Theo van Gogh was murdered He was known and feared for his strong critizism and his blunt and harsh statements that he spewed when ever he got the chance. Often shocking his "opponenents" Van Gogh had a very stong opinion about the way muslims-funtamentalists suppress women and how they condem gays. In an ultimate attempt to shut him up, he was brutally excecuted in Amsterdam this morning. He was shot 6 times and then a letter was pinned to his dead body with 2 knives The killer was captured after a shoot-out with the police. He is an immigrant from Marocco and aparently a muslim-extremist. Van Gogh paid the ultimate price for what he believed in the most: the freedom of speech |

Geez....politics.....
Ok....Bush Senior was an out of touch idjut...BUT....he was smart enuff to spank Saddam and then get the FUCK out of Dodge. Winning a war is the easy part....occupation and control in a foreign land ....well look what's happening NOW....look at the American Revolution....Viet Nam...both the French and the US got spanked over there... Oil....if controlling Iraqi oil was the goal...well "W" screwed that up...prices at the pump are the highest we have ever seen. OPEC....c'mon....whenever one of the oil sheiks needs a new airplane he pumps over his quota and the price goes down a bit and then they bitch at each other things get adjusted again.... The whole thing sucks.... Civil war in Iraq....well....say what ya want about Saddam...he did control the rival factions....now that his corrupt, brutal, iron fisted control is gone...they are free to fight among themselves and the controlling entity...which now is the US. Hey, even Hitler got the trains to run on time and turned a bankrupt country around....not that his way of doing it was the right way....but German citizens voted HIM in....loved him until he was exposed for the monster he was.... Nothing has really changed....Somalia, Afganistan, Iraq and any other backwater POS country our idjut leaders think need to be invaded. I'm just glad that the friends, relatives and ME are either back here after serving or too old/young to go..... Now back to your regularly scheduled channel.... |
