Gordon Brown Gaffe?

I am not a fan of Gordon Brown, especially when his predecessor Tony Blair took the Labour Party of Britain and turned it into a Thatcherite party. Then of course Blair became the famous poodle of George W. Bush and ultimately resigned because the poodle was not as popular with the Labour Party as he was with George W. Bush.

I am not sure how much Gordon Brown has succeeded to take Labour Party back to its roots of being a people's party. However, he refused to be Bush's poodle.

As the above video shows, he called this woman a "bigot". Maybe he should have said that right on her face and gotten over with it instead of back in his car and then not knowing the microphone was on. Why there is such a big deal? He apologized later on a radio show, and then he called Gillian Duffy herself to apologize. Was that not enough? Then he went to her home and had a 40 minute meeting with her. Is he not overdoing it? On and on it goes.

Politicians do make gaffes, why in his case it has become such a big deal. Remember Reagan said he has declared war on Russia and bombing will start in 10 minutes not knowing that the microphone was on. He did not lose the election over that. However, the Labour Party is not currently that popular in Britain and it was losing anyway. Up and coming star it looks is the leader of the Liberal Democrat Party, Nick Clegg. It is going to be an interesting election.

Aliens and Ketchup

Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy

Bad news is that according to Stephen Hawking if aliens ever reach earth they will eat us alive or treat as badly as Columbus did the natives. The good news is that if we get rid of all the ketchup on the globe we might be safe, as we taste pretty bland without ketchup. And there is no rush to start throwing away ketchup away as we have a few hundred million years before aliens visit us. By then we will be either extinct or gone to another planet anyway.

Also don't forget we can ask our politicians to deal with them. They will get them so utterly confused as to whom to vote for that they will forget to eat us. Moreover we will put our Wall Street guys/gals to work and they will sell them many ponzy schemes. The aliens will be so worried about themselves that they won't bother eating us.

Finally Teabaggers may be right that British healthcare is not as good as we thought. Hawking is not receiving proper treatment and it is messing up his judgement as a scientist. Maybe he should be sent to the US for better care – surely he should have a lot of money to pay for such a treatment as he has been such a prominent scientist for so long.

Making of an Extremist

Watch CBS News Videos Online

Last night, April 25, 2010 there was a fascinating story by Lesley Stahl of 60 minutes on Islamic extremists and what makes them extremists. A former member of a Muslim extremist group in Britain told Stahl that the narrative used to lure people is that the US and the West invaded Afghanistan and Iraq to destroy Islam; and that this narrative works. In other words, these two wars provided all the fodder for feeding extremism and a fertile ground for such extremism.

I don't know about Bush because he has not evolved from a primate and stated once that God spoke to him to invade Iraq. However Cheney was the main architect of starting these wars and there is no doubt that the motive was oil and money - Cheney put a trance on Bush, using religion as his tool. We know quite well about the oil reserves in Iraq. In the case of Afghanistan it is strategically located for a natural gas pipline from the former neighbouring Soviet states, bringing that gas to the Persian Gulf, exporting to China, the US and other countries to make a lot of money.

We know that the Iraq invasion was justified by some imaginary WMDs. In the case of Afghanistan, the government at the time was willing to negotiate and put Osama Bin Laden on trial and maybe ultimately hand him over. But that was not Cheney's interest as it was about resources. As far as Taliban and women's rights is concerned, that is as big a bull as WMDs. Women are more oppressed today than they were before the invasion and there are a lot more cases of rape, molestation of little girls for sex and especially little boys. These are stories coming from Afghan women themselves including Malalai Joya. Karzai himself is a Taliban or not any different at all, so much for that baloney of Karzai "the reformer".

The problem is that both are badly botched wars and both countries have been destroyed and engulfed in civil wars. You cannot win the hearts and minds of local people in that kind of environment. Afghanistan is an un-winnable war and is a real quagmire and graveyard for empires. As long as these botched up wars continue and looting of local resources continues, these areas will be prime breeding grounds for extremism. The only way out is to end these wars through negotiations or the US will have no choice but to leave in a manner not much different than Vietnam.

By the same token should not the Muslim women not be given their right to cover their bodies? This is their belief system and it is their right. It is not hurting anyone? Why not give them their freedom of expression? Why the double standard? Is this not repression by Sarkozy government if such legislation is implemented?

Humans and Desire

Once in a while Andy Rooney provides a great commentary towards the end of CBS's 60 Minutes program. Last night, April 18, 2010, was one of those commentaries. He talked about out of control human desire and a need for an anti-desire pill or kill-the-desire pill. It could be one of the great advances in modern medicine.

Imagine what it can do. A desire kill pill can control the likes of Tiger Woods, John Edwards, and Eric Massa. It can be a miracle pill for many political leaders and leaders of all kinds.

If there was such a pill Osama Bin Laden could have been given it to kill his desire to conquer the US. It would have controlled the desire of Bush to be a great conqueror of Afghanistan and Iraq. Imagine how many lives could have been saved and how many billions of dollars could have been saved. Today we would have no economic crisis especially if Wall Street bigwigs had been given the same pill.

Imagine the desires of Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Sarah Palin and many of their ilk; their desire to talk bull could have been controlled just by a desire killing pill.

We could have saved the world of a lot of unnecessary wars and tragedies.

Maybe Obama should amend his healthcare plan and include the desire-killing pill when it becomes available. Instead of death panels, which Sarah Palin talks about non-stop, there could be desire killing panels.

Imagine how kids could have been saved from predator priests and bishops. Maybe Cardinal Ratzinger would have not needed to change his identity to Pope Benedict XVI. Look at the Catholic Church and the mess it is in. All because of the uninhibited sexual desires of some predators. You may watch on Catholic Church misdeeds here and judge for yourself.

If Peter Mackay says he did not know about it then he is lying.

He also said that an innocent young Afghan man was shot in the head by Canadian soldiers and then efforts were made to cover up this incident. Maybe Pasha will be next on Harper's hit list as he is embarrassing to his government. Will Harper deport him?

Israel and Nuclear Security

Is Israel a rogue state?

I do admire Obama for organizing an unprecedented Nuclear Security conference of 48 countries, including the US. He gave a great speech at the conclusion of the conference and answered questions from the media. However, it was very disappointing when a question was asked about Israel. Obama was mum, dodged the question and started talking about what the US was going to do with its own nuclear stockpile.

The question was asked by the Washington Post reporter regarding Israel's role as it is a nuclear power, and the need for Israel to reveal to the world how much nuclear stockpile it has, how it secures it, and why it has not signed the Nuclear Non-proliferation treaty. Obama was dumbfounded. It is amazing that 48 countries with the most powerful countries like China, Russia, and the US present and no definitive answer was there when it came to Israel.

Obama basically implied that Israel can speak for itself and did not want to talk about it, yet he liberally talked about India, Pakistan, Iran and North Korea. THe US talks about sanctions against Iran, but would China whole-heartedly support such sanctions when it is fully aware of the US's duplicity when it comes to Israel.

Israel is truly a rogue state when it comes to nuclear stockpile. According to some estimates it has 250 nuclear warheads. For a relatively very small countries, less than half the size of the Province of Nova Scotia area wise (Nova Scotia: 20,599 sq miles and Israel 8,019 sq miles) with a population slightly more than Metro Toronto, Ontario, this is a very large number of warheads. It is a terrible unbalance of power in the Middle East especially when the US and Israel want that all the countries surrounding Israel to disarm and it states that it will invade Iran if it tries to develop nuclear weapons. Does the US or Israel have the moral authority to tell the rest of the Middle East to disarm and remain nuclear free when Israel continues to increase its stockpile of nuclear arsenal?

It is a dangerous situation in the Middle East and for the world. As long as Israel continues to build up its nuclear weaponry some Middle Eastern country is bound to get a nuclear arsenal to bring some balance to the region. In case of a war break out it will be a catastrophe simply because the US continues to ignore Israeli policy and looks the other way. Israel is the true rogue state and a powder keg for peace in the Middle East and the world.

China has strong trade ties with Iran and may never fully support US sanction especially given American hypocrisy on Israel. If world needs peace then Israel must be made accountable. It has to shed its nuclear arsenal in order to earn the trust of its neighbours and secure much needed peace in that region.

Stephen Harper’s Tiger Woods moment

Stephen Harper is hearing from the world beyond, like Tiger Woods. He can get a new ad for his Conservative Party like Tiger Woods for Nike. What is amazing is that in the case of Bernier the situation seems much more serious. Bernier, when he was Minister of Foreign Affairs, had left some very sensitive papers related to defence at his then girlfriend Julie Couillard's apartment. Not only that, Couillard was involved with a biker gang who were known for illegal activities. You would think his case was very serious. But he was only fired from the cabinet but not from the caucus. Also, there have been rumours about him rejoining cabinet.

In case of Helena Guergis, it did not look that serious yet she was not only fired from the cabinet but also was kicked out from caucus. It did not stop there. Harper contacted the RCMP and Commissioner of Ethics for further investigations. Yet the public does not know why. The only excuse given so far is that some third party has made serious allegations. It happened on a Thursday night and Harper took those extraordinary measures within 24 hours on a Friday. It is baffling. Why would he not reveal the allegations? The plot thickens.

Barack Obama: Reducing Nuclear Stockpiles

Ronald Reagan said that he aimed for a World without nuclear weapons and negotiated an arms reduction treaty with the Soviet Union that reduced America's nuclear arsenal by one-third.

Now, Barack Obama is proposing something very similar vis a vis Russia... and the tea partiers, Sarah Palin, and Glenn Beck (and other Faux News acolytes) are yelling at the top of their lungs that Obama is disarming America.

So when Reagan does it, it's okay, but when Obama does it...

Nuclear weapons are horrific, while I do not think we will see their elimination in our lifetimes, to reduce stockpiles is a step in the right direction - plus it sends a strong message to nuclear wannabees such as Iran and North Korea that America is willing to practice what it preaches in the way of reducing the spread of nuclear weapons.

In an age of terrorism, nuclear weapons are not an effective deterrant. They potentially wreak great destruction. That is why we must strive for their reduction and ultimately their elimination. Obama's Nuclear Security Summit is also a step in the right direction in this regard.

We brag about what we do in Africa and other poor countries to help people there and reprimand other nations for violating the rights of their citizens. Helping people is good and necessary but this violation of human rights is in our own backyard. A Japanese doctor is helping these folks here. This is a prime example of business and industry gone wild in order to make money – especially there is the underlying theme that natives' lives don't matter. One commentator in the CBC story said that this comes closest to genocide in recent years in Canada. People who preach deregulation and unbridled capitalism may learn something from this tragedy.

In other words they own these women's bodies - a new kind of slavery in the making. This case is before the courts and it is hoped that Myriad and other such companies lose.

After watching the video above you will get the picture.

The minute the profit motive enters the healthcare system, forget about healthcare itself, it is no longer about the patient, it is all about profit. Healthcare must not be in private hands. The rich benefit from such healthcare and the rest of the public just subsides as the general public is denied treatment on all kinds of grounds.
