Wednesday July 02, 2008 When is a Sunni fundamentalist terrorist not a terrorist?
.... Why, when they're Baluchistani 'dissidents' agitating against the Iranian regime, of course! One could perhaps predict that in 20 odd years time Baluchistanis will be identified as being behind some terrible terrorist attrocity committed in the west, but then one would need a basic sense of history!
In other news, Nelson Mandela and other ANC members have been taken off the US terrorist watch lists. ANC terrorism of course was not terrorism, but instead the noble, indiscriminate maiming and killing of people who would have gladly volunteered to have died for freedom had they been offered a chance (and those who wouldn't have must have been apartheid lovers). Anyway, it seems the only way off the terrorist watch-list (besides being a US Senator or buddies with the head of the US DHS) is to be a successful terrorist..
In other news, scientists have discovered a new shade. Said to be neither white, nor black, it has tentatively been named 'grey' and even may possibly form a continuum. It is speculated the world may in fact be full of it...
