Blatter: Clueless nitwit
He actually compared the situation of a footballer, called Ronaldo, with Manchester United with being a slave. This moron player gets payed $100k a week. Yet another example of what a bunch of clueless fools professional sportsmen and their enablers are.
I am sure modern slaves in Sudan feel for Ronaldo’s plight.

Billy Ray Cyrus, Ted Nugent and some Battleroar in the same column? Well, of course, what’s wrong with that?
Harry’s Place Being Sued By Hamas UK
Last Friday, in the wake of a closely argued debate about whether Mohammed Sawalha, the President of the British Muslim Initiative, had used the phrase “Evil Jew†or “Jewish Lobby†in a speech, Harry’s Place received a letter. The letter is from Dean and Dean, a firm of solicitors who are acting for Mr Sawalha.
No doubt this is the opening gambit in a campaign of legal intimidation by Islamists in the UK. We need to support Harry’s Place as the first line of defence against this sort of bullying.
Update: There is a blogburst started in support of Harry’s Place.
The Iconoclast is on side not surprisingly.
The Jerusalem Post has picked up on this reports Z-Word.
2 commentsQuestioning David Davis MP at the wrong time
Conservative Home has chosen the very day of the by-election in Haltemprice & Howden to wonder aloud whether David Davis’ decision to resign and fight a by-election on the issue was worth it. Quite why this couldn’t have been discussed tomorrow - rather than on polling day - is beyond me.
Read Geldof’s rather sober piece on the subject. How he managed so many words without swearing is beyond me. The last time I heard him speak on the subject it was not so tame.
Harry Place is being sued? for daring to state that Hamas is a vile organisation. I hope readers of this blog will be generous in their support of such a great site.

Scapegoating Speculators
You would want to sell as much oil now and OPEC’s collective efforts to do so would put downward pressures on current oil prices. Right now the U.S. Congress is OPEC’s staunchest ally.
