#1 Only a Lefty would argue that the USA and its Allies that appeasing and getting out of Muslim lands will stop the Burqua Boyz from working to accomplish their Global Islamist/Jihadist State, where Britain somehow does not fall under the definition or precept of "GLOBAL" or "GLOBAL STATE" * "I have a document signed by Mr. Hitler .... PEACE REIGNS IN OUR TIME"!?

#3 Livingstone is expectedly pathetic ; his appeasenik delusion is viscerally compulsive.

#4  The family Every British solider who is injured or killed in Iraq can thank Red Ken for aiding in their loved ones death. Red Ken abettor of terrorism and islamo-fascist repression everywhere. I'd call him a pig, but that's a insult to swine.

#5 Red Ken's Will to Live Quotient: -9.9

Someone should take up a collection to grant this not so secret desire.

#7 TGA - Yep, like most lefties in the UK, they've failed to realise they're under threat from an ideology akin to Nazism. I think we've shown the Muslim communities in the UK too much respect in recent years - the thanks we get? 7/7.

#8 The speech of Livingstone and Galloway is that of the vilest treason against the west. How can any Englishman allow these pigs to continue to speak as they do while British soilders put their lives at risk to protect them? They have sided with those who would kill you as soon as look at you. Not one person seems to speak against them or even attempts to silence them. These two blame the the bombers victims for their own deaths.

The English are becoming unreliable. So be it if we have to go it alone. It's getting where I can't bear to even read the UK press since it's full of lies and propaganda. Shortly Livingstone will get his way and the UK will cut and run. Sad crap.

#9 Britons should also treat all members of the community equally to shrink the pool of the alienated that bombers draw upon.

Hey! I got an idea! Why not convert to islam! that'll help keep the terrorists away.

for a while.

till we're not the right kind of muslim.

#10 Sock, I watched Tony Blair this morning and if his deeds match his words the Brits are taking a big step. They still have to overcome such nonsense as the directives for police when raiding Moslem homes but I'm not ready to write them off yet. We've got our share of surrender monkeys here, too. A reporter asked Blair to respond to Galloways attack on him and he refused. he said he wasn't going to get into a debate with Galloway because that is exactly waht he wanted and his statements didn't warrent a reply.

#12 This reminds me of when Guliani said we should all grow beards, memorize the Koran, and changed the name from New York to Bin Laden City after 9/11, right? Oh, wait...
When's the next mayoral election in London? If you vote him back in, you deserve to get blown up.

#13 How about all the al-Q killing before Iraq?
How about the US financing Israeli terrorism for the last 50 years?
Ken's quite right in what he's written and as for the British being appeasers, I seem to remember that it was the USA that took nearly 3 years to join the fight against the Nazis and even then it was after both Germany and Japan declared war on them. Now that's real appeasement.

#14 Tell me again about the 1939 US-UK mutual defence treaty? But I do seem to remember a UK pledge to defend Poland. I also remember the French and British doing fuck all and sitting on their asses in France until the Germans drove panzers down their collective throats. And Socialtist trash like you in Britain were rooting for Stalin's buddy, Hitler, right up to the day German forces crossed Soviet lines.

Nothing ever changes with you narcissistic supporters of tyrants, except the name and flavor of the tyrany.

#15 On Sept 1st 1939 the Nazis invaded Poland, on Sept 3rd 1939, Britain, France, Australia and New Zealand declared war on Germany.
While you guys were wearing your yellow ribbons Britain and France were faced by the world's strongest military power, the Nazis were in much the same position as the USA are today, indeed there are many similarities not just Hitler/Bush.
I find it quite often Ed that Americans seem to have little factual knowledge of WW11, what they do have is based on what comes out of Hollywood. The USA of course continued to trade with the Nazis before and actually during the war. War for Americans even then was a matter of economics.

#16 Nice little European war you got yourselves in. Wasn't any US business. Tell me again how Britain, France, Australia and New Zealand came to the rescue of the Poles? Did one British soldier fight in defence of the Poles? Was one Wehrmacht soldier fired on in anger? Did your "antiwar" granddaddy also march in support of Hitler until Adolf broke the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact and drove for Moscow? Save me from your hypocracy. Chamberlain lied, Six million Poles died.

#17 Ms Thriper would be having to translate from German if it wasn't for the States' intervention in either World War - take your choice. Ken's an arse - inviting suicide bombers round for tea and now suggesting appeasement - I guess he's lost a whole lot of votes. I get the tube every day and won't be cowed by muslim scum.

#18 We waited 2 days to declare war on Germany, your yellow bellies waited nearly 3 years. It was a world war, not restricted to Europe, even you should know that. What did you expect the British to do, march through Germany to get to Poland? I don't think I've ever heard anything quite as stupid in my life before.
Anyway if I continue to blow away your stupidity I will simply get censored from this extreme right wing board, so I leave the stage to you and your fantasies and ignorance.

#19 Finally, Ken would be or will be re-elected when the time comes round again, there's no doubt about that. British people are far more knowledgeable of world affairs than Americans and distrustful of Blair's collusion with dumbo Bush.

#20 How come Blair won the last election? You have a vote in this country and throwing bombs around where innocent people are concerned cannot be allowed to achieve any political outcome. Ken should be intelligent enough to realise this.

#22 BFD. Your war, your neighborhood, your promises to come to the aid of allies. When did the mightiest forces in the world come to the rescue of Poland?

What the US should have learned from 1939 was that mutual defence treaties with Europe aren't worth the paper they are printed on. Never fear, this time Americans are paying attention. Be sure to count us out when the muslim conquest of Europe gets underway sometime between 2025 and 2035. I'm sure the Caliphate is counting on you to do what you always do, wait to be rolled over.

#23 Now-now, children.

Remember that the Hindenburg burned up because the USA refused to sell Helium to the Germans. When the war started, the USA said it would sell weapons to both sides on a "cash and carry" basis: you paid up front and used your own ships to transport it. While legally "equal," the facts of course were that the Allies could take advantage of this while the Germans couldn't. After the fall of France, British ships could be repaired in American shipyards. The USA had a "military exclusion zone" which we tried to patrol and keep all "belligerant submarines" out. Again, legally British submarines were equally forbidden, but who cared? Of course, there was FDR's Destroyers-for-bases deal, which didn't go through the Senate and thus was impeachment material.

Now, as for Poland, the problem was that way the German army did its waves, it was quicker to mobilize (plus, having started it, they had a head start). France did in fact launch an "attack" on the West Wall, but it was very timid. France did send a bomber unit to Poland, where it was destroyed in the fighting. Britain was far worse in preparedness and could only send 4-5 measely infantry divisions over to the continent. They bomb some German ships and tried a raid on Wilhelmshaven which got their bombers decimated.

#26 In light of Fred's comments about this becoming a hate site I'd like to qualify what I said about muslim scum. I meant it in the same way as the Phalangists in Beirut who massacred Palestinians were Christian scum. Just like football hooligans are English scum. Ok? Got to stop poking trolls.

#28 SOB! Rafael you're right! He's talking about WW Deuce, The Big One! Dad's War. Has you know it was fought mainly in the Pacific North and NW of Australia, tho Ima told there was a bloody great battle along Queen St. in Auckland (that in New Zealand.... an island). The war ended almost 60 years ago to this date when Nixon dropped the bomb on Kent State.

#29 Blair can say all he wants to, he is a politician and gets paid for that. Facts are Livingstone is Mayor of a city of 7,421,209 souls (12,415,310 in the metropolitan area), those people elected and are happy to have him. To me London is England (screw this PC UK crap) If Englishmen are happy to have him that tells me where they are a a whole. It is ready to cut and run I say.

Call me when Blair tells Livingstone to shut up publicly. Tell me when someone punches Galloway in the face. If you think Britain is going to be with us in a year if it's needed good luck. As far as they are concerned we do it all wrong and are worse than the terrorists. Bush is more evil than Osama, read their press. Go to the BBC web site and read the comments left in their “Have Your Say” comments section. The comments reflect hate for the US as almost and subject they feature will have at least one comment blaming the US for the problem even if it's totally unrelated to the subject.

#30 So, thriper, we are cowards for not fighting your war for you any sooner? Tell me, then, what kept the Soviet Union from intervening against Hitler before he attacked them?
Oh, yeah, they were on his side, as were all of Red Ken's predecessors and their American counterparts.
For that matter, what kept Iraq and the Palestinian Arabs from joining the war?
In fact, they did, but on Hitler's side.

#32 It's ironic that today's peace movement, represented here by the cowardly clairvoyant thriper, would fault us for a situation to which their direct, lineal predecessors, the peace movement of the 1930s contributed.
In the 1960s, the US guaranteed the independence of South Vietnam, as Britain did that of Poland in 1939. Where did that get us with the Brit left?
These vermin will be extinct by the time this war is over, it cannot end any other way.

#33 I'm gratified to hear you say that, AC. I consider the internal "ists" to be far more dangerous than the external threat posed by the sum of Islamofascists. We cannot be defeated. Wounded, yes, but not defeated. The true danger we face is surrender. I would welcome our Second Civil War - and to be utterly blunt, the sooner the better. What is being wasted, from limited time to lost focus to precious resources, dithering with these insane elements, simply boggles. The distractions retard the process of coalescing on important issues, such as border security. It will probably lead to our being hit, again. Were that not the case, just imagine what we could accomplish sans that 25% hardcore Moonbat segment and their Soros-type money-men scamming the 20% that are gullible, but well-intentioned... No Pelosis or Kennedys or Leahys or Dodds or Rangels or Voinovichs or Moores or KosKiddies... I do not pretend to know what will happen elsewhere, but I hope the moment of truth arrives soon here.

#36 what's up with these trolls and never-heard-of-before-posters who have been coming in here and purposely try to find issues between American and Britian? They've been at it for a week now. First one tried to get it going with the American Revolution and since that effort bombed, another effort was made and now another. Maybe we should all just start messing with our little divide and conquerer's mind. I know that I for one am still smoldering over the British policy of taxation without representation!
