The British government is claiming up to 1500 white people have converted to Islam and are now part of al-Qaeda.

To the people of Britain:

Soon it won’t be just “those dodgy brown people” getting locked up without charge and tortured. This is the next logical step towards the creation of a fascist state in which all citizens live in fear of the secret police, and neighbour reports neighbour for crimes real or imagined, and thought crime is punishable by torture and death.

To the government of Britain:

If 1500 white people really are engaged in a secret war against you, has it occurred to you that maybe it’s because they don’t like having their freedoms taken away from them? Ignore a terrorist and he will fade away. Fight a terrorist and he grows powerful. If this report is really true then it’s your own bloody fault, and you get what you deserve.

Bizarre story of a Perth girl invited to spend Christmas in Colombia and winds up getting kidnapped.

Could be true. The paramilitary protection racket in Santa Marta makes productive employment fairly pointless, leaving thuggery the most profitable way to get ahead.
