Another Must-Read from Rich……..
JFM suggests that you will be missing out on much background material about Saddam Hussein that needs to be spread round loudly if you do not read this Mullings column for Friday, -2 July !! Follow the internal link, too. This is information that will NOT be featured, as it ought to be, in the ‘mass media’ outlets.
The ‘media’ needs a good spanking and a good ‘shaking up’ !!

Occult paranoia going on this time in the SW of England. Pagan Prattle has the scoop in this case of the occult, knives, and swords in Cornwall. Of course, it is not like we are talking satanism, just a bunch of druids.
And for a more extreme example of anti-pagan bigotry, check out this death-threat recieved by a Pagan Conservatives list member.

After onstage anti-George Bush rhetoric by BLAZE BAILEY (he began a song by saying “Kill & Destroy George Bush!”), the singer from CAGE (Sean Peck) asked him what was up with slagging Bush and the USA. Both participants had finished their sets and were drunk. Words exchanged, Blaze reportedly asked, “Do you want to have a go at me?” and lunged towards Peck, who clocked him. As the former IRON MAIDEN singer was (ironically) falling down, Peck grabbed his collar and in best hockey fight fashion, pummeled Bailey a few more times. The result a quickly swollen and discolored eye.

3 commentsAraya on WWII
Tom Araya, the ever-so-blunt frontman of the band Slayer, made a rather interesting comment at a recent European gig.
Apparently, at their recent Dynamo festival appearance in Netherlands, which coincided with the same weekend of international celebrations remembering the 60th Anniversary of the D-Day invasion, SLAYER was preparing to play ‘War Ensemble’. Tom Araya (paraphrased): “Are you ready for war? (crowd goes wild). Well you weren’t 60 years ago!”

There were titters from Iraqi officials in court as the judge informed him that this would not be possible.
“He is the justice minister,” he said.
As long as he stays Justice Minister and isn’t tempted by what will no doubt be exhorbitant legal fees, albeit defending one of Saddam’s former henchmen, then there is hope.
May I remind everyone that it is the French who are defending HVD-1

Traffic’s been sluggish all day, and I just now figured it out. People have better things to do, because it’s not Read This Blog Day, it’s Canada Day!
Ugh. Formerly Dominion Day, it was changed in 1982 to the clunky, tongue-stumbling Canada Day or more euphoniously in French, Fte du Canada. (Not that Quebecers really care about it—you could fire a cannon off in most of Quebec today and not worry about hitting any crazed collection of Canada Day revellers. Quebec’s main holiday is St. Jean Baptiste, on June 24.)
I suppose we should be grateful that those tin-eared bureaucrats didn’t change it to something like DayCan. Give them time, give them time.
Bruce at Autonomous Source shares my disdain:
It was as if you took the worst of Can-con schmaltz and distilled it to a lethal concentration. Soaring, painfully earnest lyrics, sung by a precisely-constructed, multi-cultural choir, mixed with shots of people in canoes, staning next to totem poles, and assorted other ‘Canadiana’. About a minute of it was all I could take, but it just kept going. I was forced to change channels while we waited for Zooboomafoo to start to preserve my sanity.Canada day for me is like that video. It tries too hard. It’s insecure. It’s embarrassing. All that government-sponsered flag-waving is flat-out Orwellian. It gives me the creeps.
Mark Steyn as usual cuts to the ersatz heart of the matter:
The symbols of our national identity are banal and evasive, beginning with the federally funded cardboard hats emblazoned La fete du Canada, affichez votre sourire! a message from Patrimoine Canadien which, roughly translated, means Smile! Youre in non-candid Canada!
Canada Day? Humbug!
I do sort of like the idea of Read This Blog Day, though. Let the meme begin!
