People On Our Side

from Le Monde [roughly translated] -
A group of angry Muslims today killed six Christians, including a child, and wounded ten others whom they accused of having profaned the Koran. The agressors also burned forty houses and a church in a village in the west of Pakistan, according to an official source.
...
[The Minister of Minorities said] "I have been told that they were burned alive."
...
Pakistani television showed the police using tear gas to disperse the angry crowd.
Note that the police attempted to disperse the crowd, not to arrest anyone.

These are our allies, the people we hope will remain in power lest Al Qaeda and the Taliban take power.

    Why would you want to associate yourself with an artificial state like this that appears to be full of nothing but scum.

    You know how the Irish, unemployed drunks. Damien more than likely is drunk. For sure poorly educated.

    I'm neither unemployed, poorly educated or drunk, in fact I'm incredibly successful and highly articulate, but thanks for the analysis anyway anon ;)

  6. Damnien, have you ever considered that you may be so drunk that you just think you successful and articulate?

    Nah Harvery, I wouldn't be that naive. Its more to do with all the trophies on my wall for excelling in academics, they bore me at that stage.

  9. It is one of the tragedies of life that people like Damien who are failures and blithering idiots are too stupid and ashamed to admit it. So his delusions of adequacy never get addressed and he continues to think that because society is unwilling to pay to institutionalize him, that other people accept him. Other people no more than tolerate you, Damien. And not always that.

  11. Don't condemn Damien too severely. Anybody whose country can make a nationwide practice of sexually abusing tens of thousands of children with impunity for decades has to live in a world of denial and delusion. After all, what is bum-witness testimony of buggering and beating a few thousand children for decades compared to rumors of a politician having diverted money to the wrong public account?

  12. 'Prequel to Hamlet' a) isn't finished, and b) is not for sale. Again don't condemn Christy too severely. A drunken illiterate can't be expected to know much about literature. And an Irishman can't know much about not being for sale.

  13. And I think we can all be thankful for Ireland being so short of even remotely competent people that even people as low caliber as Damien can be given make-work jobs.

    But let's face it, Irish stables DO have to be shoveled out.

    Damien works at a bank actually. But you are right about me - I am a drunken illiterate. Though I can think about a good Jew joke including 'for sale', but I better not. Us damn bog Irishmen have to keep our anti-semitism to ourselves you know!

    And 3 replies? Must have really winded you up then.

  15. 'Prequel to Hamlet' is not for sale???? Please, Jack, everything is for sale. I'll give you six cans of soup for it.

    I'll donate a few coins out of pity for a struggling old writer. A really struggling old writer.

    For the love of God man, why try to write in 'Faux Elizabethan Style'? Do you not understand how tacky and predictable that invariably is?
