Yet, you posted a link to their website, and nobody here has said they can't read the link. Does that tell you anything about the reliability of Jihadwatch? |

I think the biggest problem will be the blocking of unintended sites. I look
forward to the legal actions with interest. Before you create a genie best check your bottles. Brian -- ----- - This newsgroup posting comes to you directly from... The Sofa of Brian Gaff...

Harry doesn't read the BBC -- If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.

There are few or no restrictions on watching people being killed. I am told our allies fill youtube with videos of them slaughtering various foreign people from the air. Personally I don't lke to watch people being killed or raped, but Hollywood seems to think this is fine as long as no genitalia are visible. Looked at objectively, the restrictions are bizarre. Even though such things do not appeal to me I can't see a legal basis for preventing people watching them, except perhaps the privacy of the people portrayed, which the law is largely interested in. -- Roger Hayter |

I am told our allies fill youtube with videos of them slaughtering various foreign people from the air. But as harry would say they are foreign people so who cares. But there;'s no eveidence that those killings are illegal and have already happened before they get put on youtube. Personally I don't lke to watch people being killed or raped, but Hollywood seems to think this is fine as long as no genitalia are visible. No they are actors , star trek isn't real either or so I've been told. Looked at objectively, the restrictions are bizarre. Even though such things do not appeal to me I can't see a legal basis for preventing people watching them, except perhaps the privacy of the people portrayed, which the law is largely interested in. Maybe it's something to do with cause and effect, I mean lots of people are intrested in watching football so that's why it gets on TV which in turn makes more people watch it, it may even make more people want to play it becausxe they can earn money at it and get on TV, would uo really want this to apply to child rape and Pedophilia, and that it's OK provided you pay them or give them sweeties, drugs or alcohol. -- Roger Hayter |
