Farage is certainly a thorn in the side of these grasping globalists and their “grand soviet”. No doubt he is now at risk of meeting with an accident as do most populist leaders who speak truth to power in the new European soviet.

We should not be too smug in poking fun at Europe’s fall into the hands of an elitist soviet control system. We in North America are being conditioned to accept the authoritarian police state – we see the signs daily ( been in an airport lately?) but close our eyes to it. Probably the most corrupt politicized policing in North America exists in this province. Caledonia was a glimpse into the control of police by corrupt pathocratic politicos with agendas at cross purposes to constitutional rule of law. Unfortunately we do not have a Canadian “Farage” in our government speaking truth to power.

As to no “Farage” here — that’s because the lot of them in gov’t are equally hypocritical. It’s hard to tell the difference often between the CPC and the LPC — or the NDP, for that matter.

If you look, you can find Paul Martin, Medvedev, Cameron, Condi Rice, etc…

They’ve all been playing footsie with Qaddafi, as they did with Mubarak, and Saddam before him, all in the interest of realpolitik.

Stop treating despots, tyrants and dictators as equals on the world stage, that should be step one in any change to moral or ethical politics. Step one should not be getting the boys and girls at the sharp end in harms way just because you can muster up the UN votes to do it, which took abstainers from Russia, China, Germany, Brazil and India to accomplish.

Russia and China both treat their own citizens as disposable, how are they any different than Qaddafi?

True — I saw one pic of Tony Blair with a huge smile on his face, shaking hands with the bastard.

I do like to see people point out the hypocrisy as often as possible.

Nice catch on this one, Natasha.
On a lightly different tack, over on the right of this screen are some posted “Love Notes”
I got a chuckle from your admirer, abdulloh.
“wait for retaliation from the gods.” Gods?! I’m pretty sure that’s blasphemy, requiring his immediate extinguishment!
