8 Nil to the Predator

[Dedworth]

At least eight al-Qaeda militants - some of whom were German nationals - have been killed in a drone attack in Pakistan, officials have told the BBC.

The suspected US drone fired two missiles at a house owned by a local tribesman in the Pakistani region of North Waziristan, the officials said.

At least three of the dead were said to be German, of Arab or Turkish origin.

There have been 26 such strikes in the area in the past month, killing several high-profile militants.

Analysts have linked the increasing frequency of US drone attacks with current reports of an alleged al-Qaeda plot to attack European cities.

Several countries have issued travel warnings to their citizens, and US intelligence sources have linked the plot to militants in Pakistan.

Wonder if London and other major cities are protected from Drone attacks. I know our air ways are heavily monitored and very busy but surely if they on one way missions they take risks the average stray light plane or helicopter wouldn't with altitude

The IRA are terrorists, likewise Baader Meinhof, PLO, ETA, Abu Sayyaf ,NPA etc along with the vile scum who murdered 52 people and maimed untold others in London on 7/7/2005. It is music to my ears when I hear of missiles being launched at these vermin in their Pakistan hidey holes - the more the merrier

I feel that this way of thinking will only cause more innocent deaths

[bornatbirth]

nothing wrong with killing terrorists

Maybe you should kill the British for brutally colonizing also, and while you're at it, the Americans for allowing the persecution of the Palestinians.

Encouraging start to the week another 14 extremists sent to their maker

Two American drone strikes killed 14 suspected militants in north-western Pakistan on Sunday, local intelligence officials said, in the latest attacks against al-Qaida and Taliban militants.

In the first strike, nine insurgents were killed when two missiles were fired on the town of Ghulam Khan in North Waziristan.

An hour later, another pair of missiles struck a vehicle in the nearby town of Datta Khel, killing five suspected militants.

I have not posted on these subjects for a while to keep the piece but I'm totally with Dedworth reguarding extremists em

Also this colonial crap I keep hearing Yes we took some liberties but we were a dominant power,are you trying to tell me that if some of these smaller countries were in our position then they would not have done the same

We colonised lots of countries and educated them too,don't see as many africans boiled in a pan these days.

Most Indians I have ever spoke to are proud of their links with Britain and have class unlike the bloody Pakistanis who encourage terrorism and are one of the biggest bunch of racits you will ever meet.

The IRA were "supposed to be" terrorists and we would never negotiate with them.
Hey ho, we did.

The Islamic world will negotiate when they are in a position of power also.
Or at least will keep on going until we lose the will to continue in Afghanistan for example.

People who fight for their own land will find willpower beyond belief.

Keep on reading the "Sun" those who beg to differ

As I've said before the frequent and incorrect use of the racist jibe is socialist sop to any critiscism by the indigenous UK population of multiculturalism, islamic extremism, immigration policy, foreign criminals and prisoners etc.

During the dying months of the last failed Labour Government it fell out of use somewhat as they realised they were losing supporters with Joe Public strongly feeling that mass uncontrolled immigration was wrong and that muslim extremists shouldn't be kow-towed to.

immigration as always been around together with joining the EU it seems worse than it really is, i can understand how people feel when you read the headlines, why do you think immigrants want to come to the uk?

isnt it because were a nation that cares and gives people a chance of a better life, so can we have less of this over reacting

So, if the IRA are/were terrorists as you say, why did the UK government negotiate with them?

They hold seats in Nothern Ireland now.

Everything changes, in time.
One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter.

There are always two sides to every story.
I would like to know if people who are happy with muslims being killed have ever sat down with any British muslims and had a discussion about anything.
I would love to see them putting some of these anti-muslim points to people around the country.

It is easy to "shout" on a forum about hating this and that, do people ever make time to talk to their fellow British people of other political or racial types to find out more?

I do - I try to find out more wherever I go, even with people from other countries.

I am anti-racist and an atheist and I defend these always.

bornatbirth, many people had forthright views about religion previously not just me, and yes I am really happy religion is off the forum.

Can't we stop all of this political nonsense now?

I was listening to a debate on Radio 5 a few years ago, they were discussing Yasser Arafat and the Isreali's negotiating with terrorists, but something got lost in translation and they referred to Arafat as Hitch-hiker, not a hijacker

[stevewool]

hi all each to there own i have said and who ever is right or wrong who really cares , we all have views and many are wrong many are right but we live in a society that we all can have that view,
anyway i am here writting tghis after what i saw in london on sunday at speakers corner.
myself and emma was walking through and there was about 5 speakers there shouting there wares , politics, god, some other i could not understand, another one who was rambling and about 30 people that were praying, and yes muslins or who ever they were,
anyway just stopping and listening to them, these 2 people and my view here is thugs, prats and w---kers, got out this flag and started shouting at these people praying, get a job we pay your money the usualy stuff, and there where a few others with them looking for a fight, how i wished i could have comfronted these idiots made me so angry and so wished to tell them what i thought, most proberly these did not work too but being white they thought they where better i think, pushing became more and more and its the white people doing it all,the others just tried to calm everyone down, the police were called but we had gone before then, just makes me wonder who and what is right, all i know is there are better ways to act when trying to say something to others

[Dedworth]

Maybe the blokes shouting "get a job - we pay your money" were making reference to Mohammed Shamsuddin one of the grubs who stood outside the Old Bailey the other day waving placards saying "British soldiers must die" & "Stephen Timms – go to hell" - it is widely reported that this chap is happy enough to collect taxpayer funded benefits from a country he loathes, but can afford to send his children to private schools

I'm not sure if they have a Speakers Corner in Riyadh but they certainly have Chop Square

Something about this makes me hark back to my school days and reminds me of the few kids who used to run squealing to the Teacher

Where they Muslim children being chased by racists?
Racist views would get children expelled by the way

As it should

No there weren't any Muslims at my primary school - the squealers were consistently unpopular halfwits

[stevewool]

indeed i for one did not like being there listening to this person shouting and swearing to many that did nothing to warrant it, not so long ago i thought you could be arrested for public offence, its wrong who ever says it but many seem to be able to get away with it, maybe you should get the cops on camera to arrest them , they tell you if you swear they arrest you or call names to people also , so whats the differance when others do it, just a thought
