Omagh bomb intelligence cover up
March 16th, 2010After reviewing the edited summary, committee members agreed with Sir Peter’s claim that information obtained by GCHQ was not monitored in ‘real time’ and therefore could not have prevented the bombing.
via news.bbc.co.uk
that is the view of the The Northern Ireland Affairs Committee report published today, looks like they swallowed the Gibson Report too. I find the report to be super simplistic and technically wrong. My review of the report is here http://url.ie/5e13
No one was ever convicted of the bombing and GCQH and the unpublished parts of the Gibson Report holds information needed to discover who did bomb Omagh. Why is Gordon Brown defending the refusal to share this info. Who bombed Omagh? & why can’t they convict the accused.

God save us from experts
March 14th, 2010The problem comes when reality proves the professionals to be as clueless as the rest of us — as it frequently does. Patients’ X-rays go unread. Swabs are left inside mothers after childbirth. Vulnerable children like Tracey Fay are abandoned to a lonely death. Criminals walk free because warrants are incorrectly worded. Property prices drop through the floor in defiance of the predictions of the financial gurus. Last week, the report into the collapse of the viaduct at Malahide revealed engineers had been maintaining the structure for years without realising the supports rested on rocks, rather than being driven into the sea bed.

I won a court case, I had more expert witnesses than the other side. The problem there is that courts give credence to expert-ism. “In My Opinion” said the expert! and the ground open up and believed it, because it was expert.

that’s no way to treat an expensive musical instrument
March 13th, 2010
I remember everything!
I remember every little thing
As if it happened only yesterday
I was barely seventeen,
And I once killed a boy with a Fender guitar
I don't remember if it was a telecaster or a stratocaster
But I do remember that it had a heart of chrome
And a voice like a horny angel
I don't remember if it was a telecaster or a stratocaster
But I do remember that it wasn't at all easy
It required the perfect combination of the right power chords
And the precise angle from which to strike
The guitar bled for about a week afterward
And the blood was so dark and rich, like wild berries
The blood of the guitar was Chuck Berry red
The guitar bled for about a week afterward,
But it rung out beautifully
And I was able to play notes
That I had never even heard before
So I took my guitar,
And I smashed it against the wall
I smashed it against the floor
I smashed it against the body of a varsity cheerleader
Smashed it against the hood of a car
Smashed it against a 1981 Harley Davidson
The Harley howled in pain,
The guitar howled in heat
And I ran up the stairs to my parents' bedroom
Mommy and Daddy were sleeping in the moonlight
Slowly I opened the door, creeping in the shadows
Right up to the foot of their bed
I raised the guitar high above my head
And just as I was about to bring the guitar
Crashing down upon the center of the bed,
My father woke up, screaming "Stop!"
"Wait a minute! Stop it boy!
What do ya think you're doin'?
That's no way to treat an expensive musical instrument!"
And I said: "God Dammit Daddy!
You know I love you,
But you got a hell of a lot to learn about Rock 'n Roll"
