I found this chestnut on SIOE. It shows where the UK was a year or so ago. Some of the more preposterous speculation in this video has already come to pass. Thats the problem with making sarcastic jokes on this issue. It just provides data points on how far we can bend over.

5 suspects arrested for terrorism in the UK and British TV.
I post a story here I found on gates of Vienna, a must read blog for anyone not familiar with it. I would like to add a few thoughts of my own on a seemingly unrelated topic.
In the 70s the BBC had a series called ‘The Sandbaggers’ which many call ‘The best TV no one ever heard of’. It is a spectacularly good series which lasted only 3 seasons until the creator, a former British navy captain mysteriously disappeared in a plane off the coast of Newfoundland scouting locations for season 4.
A spy series so close to reality that their scripts had to be submitted to MI5 for clearance and one was actually rejected for violating the official secrets act of the UK. Close examination of this series shows people in the background writing things on chalk boards or filing documents of things which didn’t become known as issues till decades later.
Flash forward to today and we see the Brits have created a new series loosely based on it called Spooks MI5 where they attempt to capture the genius of The Sandbaggers but while the former accurately showed the nature of Soviet tactics and thinking and exposed the enemy of the day for exactly what it was, Spooks laughably makes the current threat facing the UK, groups like ‘American religious anti abortionists’ and rarely if ever points a finger at Islam.
This illustrates well I think why and how the UK has slipped so far in defending its own interests, people culture and even history. They who refuse to see the enemy cannot possibly defend against it.

Birmingham, 21 Oct. (AKI) – Five terror suspects were arrested by British police in the central city of Birmingham on Tuesday. The five men, aged between 29 and 26, were arrested under anti-terrorism laws on suspicion of being involved “in the commission, preparation or instigation of an act of terrorism,” police said in a brief statement.
Police raided five homes and two businesses early on Tuesday but stressed that the raids were not in response to an immediate threat to the public. Police released no information about the nationality or identity of the arrested men.
Britain’s domestic intelligence service MI5 says on its website that the current terror threat level is ‘severe’. It said there is a strong likelihood of future terrorist attacks and a continuing high threat level to the United Kingdom.
Blaming Israel. a British documentary about Islamic hatred of Jews
In typical British fashion this makes no attempt to draw a conclusion that might favor one side of an issue. While at times this is admirable and at others repugnant this is well done and deserves to be seen.
What is clear, is that one group of people foster hatred through clear fabrication and another attempts to understand why.

Travolta film victim of violence in French project
By PIERRE-YVES ROGER, Associated Press Writer Tue Oct 14, 4:42 PM ET
PARIS – A John Travolta movie has suspended plans to film in one of the Paris area’s toughest housing projects after 10 cars to be used in the movie were burned, the production company and local officials said Tuesday.

Filming of the action movie “From Paris With Love” has been in progress for around two weeks. The filming set in the project known as Les Bosquets was scheduled to start this week. Around 90 residents were cast in roles as extras.
Cars are regularly burned in French housing projects, most famously during rioting that raged for three weeks in 2005 in poor neighborhoods across the country.
It was not immediately known who was responsible for setting alight the eight cars parked at a local stadium and two nearby early Monday, said Timm Rigal, aide to Mayor Xavier Lemoine of Montfermeil, where the housing project is located.
The Europacorp production company refused to confirm the mayor’s claim that the project scenes were being definitively canceled.
A production official said Europacorp chief Luc Besson, the French director, writer and producer, was reviewing the situation. The official was not authorized to speak publicly on the matter and asked not to be named.
The filming of the English-language movie, directed by Pierre Morel and also starring Jonathan Rhys Meyers, continues with indoor scenes programmed this week, according to the production official.
New film, The Third Jihad.
I have posted a link to the trailers in another article but here is a 30 minute version of the film. The clips looked fantastic so I bought this movie as it appears not only to be up to date but detailed and courageous. It is very satisfying to see so many films coming out which are such excellent vehicles for warning the west about the truly immanent dangers of Islam.

CAIR very upset about Obsession. This film should have them doing somersaults
Movie review. ABC’s The Path to 911
I mention this because there is a disturbing trend I cannot help but notice.
Many otherwise reasonable people, people who for example, would scoff at the idea that the Queen of England was actually a reptile or that the moon landing was faked and never took place (as if Russian astronomers wouldn’t have busted that 10 minutes afterwards not to mention the Royal Physicians) have bought into ‘alternative theories’ on what took place the morning of September 11 2001. It’s sad that anyone had to make this movie but its so damn good I’m glad they did.
It’s important to get the version with the scenes that Bill Clinton forced ABC to remove, put back in. You will know which scenes they are I’m certain without having to compare versions. This 3 disc dramatized documentary pulls no punches. ABC is not known for being friendly to the Bush admin. but they cast Clinton in a very poor light and show Bush and Condi as taking the terrorist threat very seriously.
As to it’s accuracy its exact on all important points. Having read Fred Burton’s most excellent book ‘Ghost’ (a must read for all spy novel fans and geopolitical enthusiasts) an autobiography of Fred’s decades with the DSS I can take issue with some very small details such as the walk in who supplied the information which allowed the DSS and one Pakistani Colonel to capture Ramsey Yussef, the man responsible for the 1993 attack on the WTC (remember that one?) was not to the US Embassy but in fact to the home of a US embassy staffer.
Also it was the DSS not the FBI/CIA who captured Yussef. All the rest of the details are bang on to the facts and are easily verified.
In this dramatized recreation of the events you will see exactly how 911 was planned, carried out, and how the US could have stopped it had Clinton signed the act which ultimately was signed by Bush and renamed, ‘The Patriot Act’. Its also very enertaining and the time flies by.
The propaganda is so thick that Al Queda itself published a condemnation of Iran for promoting the idea that ‘The Jews’ carried out 911 and therefore took credit away from Al Queda’s one major act of terror.

If you can find this documentary anywhere really take the trouble to get it.

More on ‘Little Mosque on the Prairie’
At least one Canadian journalist has the stones to write something about this CBC travesty called ‘Little Mosque on The Prairie’ a patently absurd show which demonstrates just how much wishcraft is present in the Canadian political and media elite I say wichcraft because their seems to be a sentiment that if we wish that Islam was a nice fuzzy warm thing and depict it as such it will be.
From the above linked article…
“A Muslim lawyer from the big city moves to the prairie to become an imam, an Islamic priest. Hilarity ensues as his congregation attends services in a mosque in the basement of a Christian church; alas it’s all they can afford, the poor dears. Never mind that Islam is a well-funded religion and the Canadian prairie city of Calgary is now home to North America’s largest mosque with a floor space of over 46,000 square feet, capable of housing over 1,500 worshippers at a time. The premise of this show is that little ol’ Islam can barely make ends meet.
In any case, where are the Jews? I have asked our nation’s public broadcaster this question but have not received an answer. Shouldn’t a show that aims to cast modern Muslims as cosmopolitan, open-minded, friendly folk, seek to show Muslims in contact with Jews? It’s arguably the single most important issue when it comes to casting Islam in a favorable light.”
At least this fellow did his homework and shows some of the brutal deliberate spin of the CBC and its attempt to make Islam look like a bunch of simple goat herds who decided to leave a thriving law practice in Toronto and become humble preachers of the religion of peace.
Here is a previous article we did on Vlad some time ago on this preposterous abuse of taxpayer money making propaganda for those who call themselves “our enemies”

New film on Islam and Jihad. Looks excellent from the clips!
Check this site for 6 clips on a new movie called ‘The Third Jihad’ which looks really well done and features interviews from high ranking CIA operatives as well as well known apostates such as Ayaan Hirsi Ali author of the most ecellent autobiography ‘Infidel’.
Its interesting that the clip on CAIR is not available on the site and I can’t help but wonder if it’s in any way connected to the disappearance of www.cairbaby.com which was a website who watched CAIR closely and published evidence of its duplicity and real agenda.
I’m waiting for my copy in the mail now

Run don’t walk to rent the movie “The Kingdom”
For a solid insight into the problem of Islamic terrorism and its tactics and mentality ‘The Kingdom’ is remarkably frank for a Hollywood movie. Many books made to movies where the villains are Islamic often change them to neonazis or something equally acceptable to the politically correct where fact and likelyhood are far less important than avoiding offending the most violent and conservative of all the worlds people at this time, Muslims.
In fact, the tiny bit of moral equivalence at the end is even mitigatable by a moments thought about what these 2 people/groups meant by identical statements. (caution possible plot spoiler ahead)
