Mad Dogs and Scotsmen.

Postby Floda » Sat Jul 11, 2009 12:03 am

There is a well known song entitled "Mad Dogs and Englishmen" and the title of that song sprang to mind when I read the latest news, I will elucidate.

The Prime Minister, Gordon Brown (Scotsman) has apparently been lick-arsing the Libyan Leader Muammar Abu Minyar al-Gadaffi in connection with some infringement of a human rights situation.

Nothing wrong with the attempt to rectify what may (or may not be) such an infringement and I hasten to add that that is of little consequence to what I am about to mention.

Colonel Gadaffi ( as he is generally referred to) has long been pilloried as "The Mad Dog" by British Politicians generally, it strikes me as quite amusing to note the geniality of Gordon Brown towards the Libyan Leader when he must be fully aware of the verbal abuse the man has suffered in the past, as has been said so many times before, "Politics is a filthy business".

At the same time, the G.8. summit has been discussing matters relating to the starvation and deprivation of several African states, it is also quite amusing to note that the sources most strongly advocating the alleviation of the problems, are the very same that have created them.

In Afghanistan, several more young (boy soldiers) have paid with their lives at the behest of their country's leader ( and predecessor & co) gulled into believing that they were engaged in doing a worthwhile job, in fact, as with the unlawful and murderous attack on Iraq, the TRUTH of the matter is that they are actually in the process of forcing yet another nation to accept the tenets of democracy.

Strangely enough, there has been no mention of 'Taliban' fighters hurling young babies up in the air and catching them on the ends of their bayonets, but then, times have changed and the general public have heard that one so many times before, it probably would not have the desired effect.

Far better to call them "Mad Dogs" and be done with it.

Realizing that the above has little to do with the 'Cyprus Situation' I think it is worth remembering that the same 'Political Machinations' are operating in precisely the same manner as those aforementioned situations, personally, I would rather take note of that which I may determine with my own thoughts than that which is relayed to me through the well oiled cogs of deception which poses as 'The News'. :idea:

Actually miltiades, you are probably the least well equipped person on the forum to make any comment in respect of an other's capacity to think.

You should read a particular 'Fable' (one of Aesop's) in which the birds and the beasts are at war one with the other.

The 'BAT', watching the progress of each encounter, flits from side to side and joins the throng of whoever has the ascendancy at any given time, sometimes proclaiming himself to be a beast and at other times a bird.

When a truce was called and the affrays ceased, neither of the two sides would entertain the presence of the 'BAT' since neither could be sure of just where it's allegiance lay.

Thus it is with YOU miltiades, you are a loud mutant and your home is with the original enemies of the country you now hail to be your own.

Cyprus does not need such 'Patriots' as you, perhaps you would do better among the Turks, you certainly have an enormous amount of respect for those powers which inflict hardship upon the innocent.

May I suggest you change your nick to 'Batman' ?, it certainly has a ring of truth about it. IMHO of course. :lol: :lol:

I am afraid you would lose your bet (as usual). :lol:

Incidentally, since you are such an advocate of all that the USA deems to be acceptable, there is another interesting little story which seems to fit your pistol nicely.

During the American war of independence, there was a particular soldier who (being son of a Jewish tailor) had a special uniform created for him. the one side was Blue and the other Grey.

In such apparel, he was able to join forces with whichever side was superior at any given time (similar to the 'BAT' in the previous story).

Unfortunately, due to the lack of (or over indulgence of) battlefield rations, the soldier (if one could attach such title to such scum) developed a large boil on his buttocks which required lancing.

The Surgeon, discovering the fact that his uniform was NOT of regulation to either side of the conflict, reported the matter to the Officer in command and he was dealt with in a manner not even worthy of a spy (who would usually be shot) rather, hanged from a tree with his uniform in tatters exposing his deception.

Around his neck was hung a sign declaring "This man is a Turncoat".

I do believe that THAT is the origin of the word now commonly used for those who attempt to don the attire or countenance of the 'BAT'.

No amount of collections for the needy, could ever erase the shame of that unspeakable treacherous treasonous dog, nor will it ever serve to increase the standing of ANY who would wish to adopt the same (or similar) principles. IMHO as ever. :lol: :lol:

My last 'Session' was absolutely delightful miltiades, though I doubt very much that we are referring to the same thing !. :wink:

Further to the above account of one man's treasonous conduct, having researched the matter further I came across more information which I would like to share with you all.

In the matter of the 'Execution', it would appear that the Officer in Command ( General Floyd Daniel Muldoon of the Confederacy) son of Immigrants from both Ireland and a Mediterranean island, decided that an ordinary hanging would not be sufficient punishment for the offence of the 'Turncoat'.

He therefore ordered that the the treacherous scum should be strung up from the bough of a tree and hanged by securing fencing wire around his genitals, (I do beg your pardon ladies but the fact is that the 'Turncoat' was literally "Hung by the Bollocks!")

The horse upon which he was seated in order to effect the hanging, received a good slap on the rump and naturally bolted leaving the screaming scum dangling.........momentarily.

Unfortunately, the wire became so taught under the weight of the 'Turncoat' that it severed his goolies and he tumbled to the ground in agony.

General Muldoon, looking down upon the screaming wretch, drew his sword and with one thrust, pinioned the scum to the ground ordering that the carcass should be left to the discretion of the Buzzards and Coyotes.

Turning to the young subaltern (also of Irish descent) in charge of the execution (and attachment of the wire) the General uttered the immortal phrase, " Ah Paddy, sure you made a right Bollocks of THAT job!".

The purpose of my drawing your attention to these extra details is quite simply that TWO adages or expressions were forthcoming from the same incident which is quite rare in the sphere of such well known sayings.

I do hope the Ladies will forgive my crudeness (if it be seen as such) but could see no other way to explain the situation without the required wording.

NOW, let that be a lesson to any other person contemplating the offence of offering their allegiance to both sides of any dispute. :lol: :wink:

The recent controversy surrounding the release (on compassionate grounds) of alleged Lockerbie bomber Abdul Baset Ali al-Megrahi, would appear to offer a small glimpse of what REALLY goes on in the world of politics, how delightfully co-incidental that his release also happens to be granted just prior to the onset of the 'Holy Time'.

Perhaps the title of this thread is not so far off after all, the very fact that the whole issue is now being howled down by the US and UK hierarchy in a (not so well) veiled attempt to once again FOOL the electorate of both nations into thinking that the outcome was a shock, reveals a very interesting legal point.

The fact that the al-Megrahi withdrew his pending appeal against his conviction and relied on the (probably well prearranged) process of making an application for leniency on account of a ( supposed ? possible ? factual ? ) life threatening illness, coupled with the fact that his release on such grounds was granted, MEANS, that 'No Public Enquiry' into just who was responsible is now possible.

Therefore, the 'TRUTH' will never be known...................................How convenient.

The suggestion that the deal was done in order to secure the Mineral, Gas and Oil rights of Libya are dismissed by ALL of those who are in a position to enlighten those who have suffered most as a result of both the initial and subsequent incidents, with condemnation as well orchestrated as any one of Amadeus Mozart's operatic masterpieces.

I submit that such united condemnation of such a proposal is 'The Clincher' in raising the point that THAT is exactly what the whole scenario is about.

It is not possible that such persons as Obama, Hilary Clinton, Brown and Straw (to mention but a few) would not be privy to such 'Deals' and the fact that they are now so vociferous is proof enough. (IMHO).

Blood is thicker than Water BUT, it would appear that Oil is thicker (and a fair exchange) for Blood, a vivid testimony to any who have the capacity to THINK, as to just how much value these deceptive bastards place on 'The Sanctity of Life'.

It would appear that 'The Mad Dog' has now also been reprieved, perhaps he is truly a 'REPRIEVER' rather than a 'RETRIEVER' :lol: 8)
