Cassandra 115
The NDP Want to Debate While Rome Burns

The decision to install full body scanners at Canadian airports should have been
debated in the federal Parliament, a New Democrat claimed. He somehow sees the
installations of full body scanner as the reason parliament ought not to have been
prorogued. He wanted the issue debated in the Commons transport committee. Keep
Canada safe.

Mr. Bevington doesn't want profiling either. "I think it speaks volumes about
prorogation," Dennis Bevington, the MP for Western Arctic said, referring to the
fact the House of Commons has been suspended by the Conservative government until
after the Vancouver Olympics.

"This sort of issue should actually be coming in front of the Transport committee.
We should have witnesses there describing the pros and cons of this very intrusive
system."

At least John Baird who Cass has no use for is sticking to his guns and they are
being installed. I would have more respect for Mr. Baird if he fired all the guards
who cannot pass muster of profiling characters who might be terrorists and use the
Israeli technique.

To make you feel safe, John Baird's office has confirmed the scanners will be
installed at Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton and Halifax. The report
did not name other cities that could also get the devices, which can see through
clothing.

Listen Up Fantino

Cass hasn't read the good Commissioners email but I do know that two tiered policing
Is a fact of life for the residences who are bullied, threatened, held hostage and
otherwise deprived of their right to have a peaceful life among the natives in
Caledonia. Cass thinks it is time for the troops...now.

As for the bully boy who spent $500,000.00 defending his actions against someone he
thinks was disloyal ( a name all senior OPP like to use it means disagree with in
OPP talk) It is time for him to go and time for the government of Ontario to wish
him well and time to call a spade a spade. Back off Fantino, your first is too
close to my nose and I do not like it. Asses are everywhere but it is outrages when
they are paid by the province to intimidate and bully those who serve beside them on
the front line. Mistakes are one thing, intimidation another.

Superior Court judge has ruled OPP Commissioner Julian Fantino must face allegations
of trying to influence municipal officials by means of threats.
Judge David Crane's decision overturns a ruling several months ago by a justice of
the peace, who argued Caledonia activist Gary McHale's attempt to lay a private
charge against Fantino did not meet all the elements required for the charge.

McHale received the court ruling Thursday afternoon.

"We have set the standard for private citizens' rights to lay criminal charges
against government officials," he told The Canadian Press.

McHale has led a number of rallies decrying what he calls two-tier justice in the
policing of an aboriginal land occupation in Caledonia.

In September 2008, McHale filed an order of mandamus stating Fantino should be
charged under Section 123 (2) of the Criminal Code of Canada, which constitutes
"influencing or attempting to influence a municipal official ... by means of
threats" as an offence. This was in response to an email Fantino sent in April 2007
to Haldimand County Council telling the mayor and councillors not to attend McHale's
rallies.

OPP corporate communications Sgt. Pierre Chamberland said he could not comment
Thursday night because he hadn't seen the ruling.

Note: This Case Smells

At one time when Fantino was a no nonsense cop without an agenda, most of us
respected the work he did in making our streets and highways safe in Ontario. Now,
he is one of the many who stayed too long and has not only lost his luster buy= but
he has lost the respect of the people of the province as as said above, time for him
to exit. From the point of view of all of us, the law the lawyers, the police and
the courts have failed to do what they should do: simple and clear up hold the law.

From Dave Brown's and Dana Chatwell's perspective, settling their lawsuit against
the Ontario Provincial Police and provincial government, as they did Wednesday,
makes sense Chatwell and Dave Brown took on the thugs in OPP uniforms, sued the
province and the OPP and Fantino and found on their side gallant young men and women
who wore the OPP uniform with pride and refused to be silenced and refused to deny
the undeniable about their not protect these two citizens.

They had on their side the late David Marshall and Supreme Court Justice, medical
doctor and honourary chief of the Iroquois first nation confederacy. I say on their
side because Justice Marshall an advocate for the underdog and an equal rights
advocate knew the occupation and lawlessness was wrong and issued orders to the OPP
to protect these two and others but the OPP refused to obey his order and appealed
it to the high court which reversed the ruling.

We'll never hear the testimony or know how much money the government paid these two
deserving fighters, We just know it will be added on to the 64 million and counting
already spent and the lack of respect the OPP has from the people they police in
this area.

We just hope those going to testify against the Commissioner are never held back
because they are the real men and women of the force and the real leaders of to-day
and tomorrow,

The Butcher Bill and Afghanistan

We have paid a lot so far but trust Cass, and I wish I were wrong here, the butcher
bill will get higher and the costs of incidentals liked warped minds broken
marriages, beaten spouses and abused children will get higher and higher. It will
not get better. The "bums" you and I saw after WW1-11 will reappear. Those bums, we
didn't know it, were those who could not forget the carnage, the horror, the
brutality and the smell of death so they opted out of society and lived away from
their loved ones on the road. They were beaten and scorned after giving up their
youth and their values so we could live in peace.

There are already signs of renewed fighting and dying in that god forsaken place,
Our allies are wavering and we are leaving the battleground soon. It will be like
WW1. No real peace, no progress and the country will remain what it has always been:
a lawless tragedy pretending to be a country.

More Global Warming
Across Florida, oranges and strawberries are freezing, icicles are hanging off palm
fronds, and iguanas paralyzed by the cold are falling out of trees.

Temperatures have plunged as low as the 20s in recent days, forcing people used to
wearing flip-flops year-round to put on earmuffs. Tree huggers beware, that is
called global warming temperatures in the rest of the state are running at least 20
degrees below normal.

By God and By Allah

Heresy or Hersey's if you will. Someone worshiping your god and calling it Allah.
Any red blooded terrorists knows that the 72 virgins are for the storm troopers of
Allah and apparently Allah cannot distinguish between those Christians who use the
ubiquitous term and those who say Lord or God or Holy Spirit. At least the Christian
God knows that they are called many things sometimes not nice.

There were angry protests at mosques in Malaysia after four arson attacks on
Christian churches, apparently provoked by a controversy over the use by Christians
of the word Allah.

Police patrolled of areas around churches and Christian communities were hiring
security guards, after gasoline was thrown at four churches in and around the
capital Kuala Lumpur, partially destroying one of them. Hours later, Muslim
preachers used Friday prayers to object to a court decision that would allow use of
"Allah" as the Malaysian language term for the Christian God.

"We will not allow the word Allah to be inscribed in your churches," said one
speaker at the Kampung Bahru mosque in central Kuala Lumpur. Protesters carried
posters reading "Heresy arises from words wrongly used" and "Allah is only for us".
Now Allah hasn't been heard to comment on this but we all know the Red Lady in Rome
claims to represent Jesus on Earth and the former Nazi Anti Aircraft gunner
(deserter) is his appointed spokesman. So maybe Allah has the same kind of person
dealing with him in the grand Ayatollah style

The word has been used for centuries in Malaysia, as well as by Christians in Egypt,
Syria, Lebanon and Indonesia as the equivalent of the English word God. But many
Malaysian Muslims, who make up 60 per cent of the population, say that Allah should
be reserved to refer exclusively to the Muslim deity and that use of it in a
Biblical context encourages conversion to Christianity, a crime under the country's
Islamic laws By doing so, are they saying there is another deity? Hope not, that
would get their head loped off.

Still on Allah and his people... 36 people died and more were injured after the
minaret of a historic 18th century mosque collapsed in the central Moroccan city of
Meknes during FRIDAY Prayers...What better time to strike if you are mad and Allah
certainly had His reasons.

The mosque was packed as it would be any Friday with faithful if illiterate
adherents to Islam at the time of the collapse and local officials warned the toll
could mount from the tragedy many blamed on heavy rains that lashed the region in
the previous days. Note the blame was put on rain not Allah.

This Isn't Racist

In the shadow of Montreal, a native community is being torn apart by a plan to evict
non-natives from the Mohawk reserve well actually not torn apart, most agree with
throwing out whitey even if he married your sister. Not racist at all say the
Indian, just your average not in my neighbourhood law. Remember Alabama where a
Negro couldn't sit beside you in a drug store having a milkshake, That sort of not
racist we just do want Negros going out with our daughters type law. Iroquois want
the same not racist law on reserves..

On one side is a crusading weekly newspaper making money fanning the fire calling
the move racist and on the other side the jelly donut and beer band council that
says it has every right to protect Mohawk culture and chart a course for the
community's future. Wow, AH would be proud of them. In the far corner is the Federal
government and the Premier's office in Quebec not wanting to antagonize these home
grown men and women.

Eviction notices that went to 26 non-native partners of Mohawk residents are causing
lots of comments all over the world. They screamed racism and once word leaked off
the reserve, the move was branded as racism and made headlines.

"We know we are not racists and to be labelled as such is hurtful," said Joe
Delaronde, a spokesperson for the Mohawk Council of Kahnawake. Delaronde said it is
a matter of survival for a reserve squeezed onto 5 hectares by French-speaking
Quebec.

Every single person in this community knows (from a band rule adopted in 1981) that
... we have the right to determine who lives here says a spokesman for the council.
Now Cass will point out the southerners said they were not racist either. Separate
and equal if a few lynching's happened they were not racist either just law and
order reminders don't know why people think it has anything to do with racism ...
our law says (non natives (not racist non natives) cannot live here.

Isn't it fun. Now Cass has said for years we want immigration but only those

I think our Indians brothers are wrong. Kick out the malcontents but do not rule on
race when someone marries your brother or sister.

That's this week.

Cass
