Swansea vigil against the war

SWANSEA VIGIL AGAINST THE WAR

Around 50 anti war people joined a vigil yesterday evening to remember the dead in Iraq and to commemorate the death of the one hundredth british serviceman since Iraq was invaded almost three years ago.

The event was organised by the Swansea Coalition Against the War and it received prominent coverage in the mass circulation Evening Post and on the late night BBC Wales News.

The Swansea Coalition Against The War will be sending a large delegation to march in London on the 18th March to demand the ending of the occupation and troops home.

Laying the ground for a World War

03.02.2006 01:25

More glorification of war on the day when Blair's true actions in preparing for the invasion of Iraq were revealed to the sheep. Of course, the sheep were NOT reminded that the mass of phoney evidence used to justify the invasion was produced by the British, and NOT the Americans. There was only ONE puppet at that meeting between Bush and Blair, and it certainly wasn't Blair.

Likewise, in the States, the protests against the war are, for the most part, genuine. In the UK, it is essential for Blair that his people call the shots. Thus we have his crude psy-op "honour the fallen heroes" where all across the country, the usual fairtrade-buying, guardian-reading dribblers happily allow themselves to be led into significant sychronised pro-war vigils. It is laughable that the justification given by such people is that they 'wish' their actions to be anti-war. Well 'wishing' doesn't make it so, and Blair has scored a tremendous victory across these last few days.

So Blair's power continues to grow. While said dribblers focus on non-successful disposable 'over-reach' clauses within Blair's new laws, more sensible people watch as Blair easily gathers another mass of new powers. Blair is now nearly at the end of the current road to war with Iran. Europe is, at last, but another one of his puppets, with his vicious psychopathic goon Merkel solving the last of his problems there.

While the 'useful idiots' are paying close attention to the suggestions of Blair's agents, and are happily participating in THE CULT OF THE WARRIOR up and down the country, few are thinking about the immediate consequences of their choices. When Blair attacks Iran, the oil production of three of the major oil nations are completely disrupted- namely Iran, Iraq, and Kuwait. These three lands will burn as one. One might just think that this creates somewhat of a problem.

Blair's coming project is vastly greater than almost anybody considers. The genocide of Iran is a given. The follow-up, however, is the 'taking' of the whole of the oil-producing Middle-East. Don't, however, think that this brings Blair into early conflict with China or Russia. Indeed, the very opposite will be true, for once Iran has been destroyed, the action to take control of the complete oil production of the region will be presented as a neccessity to keep the oil flowing for the use of Russia and China, as well as the West. While the economies of the West remain healthy, so do those of China and Russia.

It is often forgotten that Germany AND Russia invaded Poland TOGETHER. World Wars begin when the great powers divvy up other people's lands. Blair knows that all (though this small word alludes to the largest of tasks) he has to do to kickstart WW3 is to begin this process. So, destroying Iran sets the region alight. When the Middle East burns, the West loses all stability in its oil supplies (remember, you couldn't have a more compliant bunch of people handing over their oil than the Arabs). When the oil supplies are disrupted, morality goes straight out the window, and all the West will cheer as Blair, and his proxy US army sweeps into the whole of the oil producing Middle East, taking control of the oil fields, and suppressing the surviving locals with tactics that would have made the SS throw up in disgust.

Now, perhaps, you will begin to understand why demonising muslims is so crucial to Blair's plans. These people, including sooner rather than later those in Saudi, are to be exterminated like ants.

Soldiers ARE going to be needed, and an ever growing number of them. Their duties WILL NOT include paying mock lip-service to any concept of Human Rights, or Human decency. Their duties will be extermination, mopping up (after massive airstrikes), and facility protection. To these ends, it is paramount for Blair to further the CULT OF THE WARRIOR. Every nation preparing for massive AGGRESSIVE WARFARE must do as much honouring of soldiers, alive or dead, as possible. Each vigil has played a small, but very very useful part.
