| Protestors clash with riot police at anti-war rally |
| 2009-01-10 |
| Protestors clashed with hundreds of riot police in central London as an anti-war demonstration turned violent. I have gotten over the fact that I will probably not be able to visit Egypt in my lifetime. But ENGLAND?? WTF??? One officer was knocked unconscious and two others received facial injuries as the mood turned sour at what had been a mainly peaceful protest. SOUR?? In the US, that would be a shooting offense. A small group of protestors turned on mounted police and riot officers on foot, throwing missiles and smashing windows in Kensington, close to the Israeli Embassy. Oh, Jooooos. That explains it. A crash barrier set up to help control the crowds was hurled through the large windows of a Starbucks Coffee shop. I don't like to insult my ancestral country. But the UK is going to HAVE to get its sh*t together. FAST |

| #3 That's her. I have no problem destroying all the tunnels. Then let the Egyptians and Euros run the Rafah crossing as a business. No military stuff comes through, everything gets inspected, and there is a 'state' price for everything (the Euros will be particularly good at this; I'd get Brussels in charge). The UN no longer is allowed to put cash into Gaza; the 'refugees' [cough] get vouchers for use at the Euro store in Rafah. And then let the Euros work on building some basic infrastructure and business so that Gazookians can be employed. Maybe Nike could put a sneaker factory in there. And one more thing: anyone fires a rocket at Israel, the Euro station at Rafah closes for a time: one day per rocket. You fire 30 rockets, you figure out how you're going to eat for a month. Now if the Gazooks really want peace [hah], over time they'll figure out how to be peaceful. |

| #1 Speaking at the rally Ms Booth criticised brother-in-law Tony Blair over his attempts to bring about a successful ceasefire. “Tony Blair’s only comment regarding the ceasefire has been to say that it can only take place after the tunnels in Gaza are destroyed," she said. “What he is suggesting means that after the massacre people will have no access to food, kerosene and medicines that came through those tunnels. That is not a ceasefire that is a slow agonising death.” Wasn't she one of the Boat People shown trying to buy up every Snickers bar in a well stocked Gaza food store when the Israelis wouldn't let her out? |
