- Steiner62
- Warm & erudite autodidactic Dubliner. Standard Male Homo Sapien Carbon Based Disposable Somatic Unit. Eyes Blue. Still has own hair. Chronic short term memory loss only obvious malfunction. Heart of gold. Easy going to a fault. My main ambition in work is to help others fulfill thier potential. In life in general, my ambition is to try & be a good person, live in the moment, defeat worry, learn as much as I can, gain wisdom, be free & pass as much love & knowledge on to my kids as I can. I'd also like to make as many people whom I meet as we make our way through this VALE OF TEARS smile, even laugh occasionally, because life is TOO IMPORTANT & TOO SHORT TO TAKE TOO SERIOUSLY. This is my hope, before my memory completely...eh, before my....er
I can't believe this is happening. Whatever about the rights, (& mostly wrongs) of the Iraqi Invasion/occupation/debacle/tragedy/hell disaster - when I read in The Independent about the fundamentalists inflicting Sharia in Basra or Baghdad, I think - "well the US led invasion opened that particular Pandora's Box, the fools, what can we expect?"
In Afghanistan though, after 9/11, the Taleban hosting Bin Laden, etc...UN Resolutions, a "just" war against the real murderers of 9/11 & thier Allies, etc...the Pandora's Box of Jihadist/Islamic Fundamentalist intolerance & perverted beliefs was quite rightly been kept shut by military force, or at least the miscreants were being put back in thier hate filled & intolerant box by the UN led force in Afghanistan, & for what?
So "Sharia Lite" can now be imposed under the noses of the very Government that was "saved" by this UN led & morally justifiable military intervention?
I mean, HELLO!!!
If this outrageous sentence is not commuted, & indeed if these idiots from within are not stripped of all authority asap by President Karzi - what the hell are British Soldiers (among others) dying for exactly in Helmand Province right now?
What?
