Befri Tibet flag - made in China

Somme tider falder man over en historie, hvor ironien er så tyk, at den kan skæres ud blokke og sælges på det lokale loppemarked.

Således denne sag fra BBC:
Police in southern China have discovered a factory manufacturing Free Tibet flags, media reports say.

The factory in Guangdong had been completing overseas orders for the flag of the Tibetan government-in-exile.

Workers said they thought they were just making colourful flags and did not realise their meaning.

But then some of them saw TV images of protesters holding the emblem and they alerted the authorities, according to Hong Kong's Ming Pao newspaper.

The factory owner reportedly told police the emblems had been ordered from outside China, and he did not know that they stood for an independent Tibet.

Workers who had grown suspicious checked the meaning of the flag by going online.

Thousands of flags had already been packed for shipping.


Stakkels fabriksejer. Døden ved nakkeskud er nok den mildeste straf han kan forvente for sin uvidenhed. Og hvad med arbejderne? Jeg troede Kina opretholdt en benhård censur på internettet, men det lykkedes dem alligevel at finde noget så u-kinesisk som et tibetansk flag. Det er nok slut med at lave flag for deres vedkommende. Måske de får fast arbejde de næste ti år på en legetøjs-"fabrik" i det Ydre Mongoli? Så ka' de lære det, ka' de!

Dagens Citat

Kommer - jeg havde nær sagt selvfølgelig - fra Mark Steyn:
On April 15, the Independent, the impeccably progressive British newspaper, editorialized: “The production of biofuel is devastating huge swathes of the world’s environment. So why on earth is the Government forcing us to use more of it?

You want the short answer? Because the government made the mistake of listening to fellows like you.

'Nuff said!

Og det var ganske vist...

Nu, hvor Earth Day har passeret kunne det måske være interessant at se på de grunde og forudsigelser som lagde grunden til den første Earth day. Dommedagsprofetier forudsigelser som nogle af verdens bedste hjerner gladeligt tilsluttede sig. For det var altsammen u-undgåeligt. Ingen grund til mere snak. Videnskaben havde nået konsensus:
• “...civilization will end within 15 or 30 years unless immediate action is taken against problems facing mankind,” biologist George Wald, Harvard University, April 19, 1970.

• By 1995, “...somewhere between 75 and 85 percent of all the species of living animals will be extinct.” Sen. Gaylord Nelson, quoting Dr. S. Dillon Ripley, Look magazine, April 1970.

• Because of increased dust, cloud cover and water vapor “...the planet will cool, the water vapor will fall and freeze, and a new Ice Age will be born,” Newsweek magazine, January 26, 1970.

• The world will be “...eleven degrees colder in the year 2000. This is about twice what it would take to put us into an ice age,” Kenneth Watt, speaking at Swarthmore University, April 19, 1970.

• “We are in an environmental crisis which threatens the survival of this nation, and of the world as a suitable place of human habitation,” biologist Barry Commoner, University of Washington, writing in the journal Environment, April 1970.

• “Man must stop pollution and conserve his resources, not merely to enhance existence but to save the race from the intolerable deteriorations and possible extinction,” The New York Times editorial, April 20, 1970.

• “By 1985, air pollution will have reduced the amount of sunlight reaching earth by one half...” Life magazine, January 1970.

• “Population will inevitably and completely outstrip whatever small increases in food supplies we make,” Paul Ehrlich, interview in Mademoiselle magazine, April 1970.

• “...air pollution...is certainly going to take hundreds of thousands of lives in the next few years alone,” Paul Ehrlich, interview in Mademoiselle magazine, April 1970.

• Ehrlich also predicted that in 1973, 200,000 Americans would die from air pollution, and that by 1980 the life expectancy of Americans would be 42 years.

• “It is already too late to avoid mass starvation,” Earth Day organizer Denis Hayes, The Living Wilderness, Spring 1970.

• “By the year 2000...the entire world, with the exception of Western Europe, North America and Australia, will be in famine,” Peter Gunter, North Texas State University, The Living Wilderness, Spring 1970.

En liste, der kan være rar at have i baghovedet, ikke mindst når den store klimakonference går i gang næste år, og vi skal høre på den nyeste gendigtning af Johannes Åbenbaring.

Gore busted

ABC News kan bringe den delikate nyhed, at Al Gores Oscarbelønnede "dokumentar" An Inconvenient Truth har snuppet et computergeneret klip fra fremtidsthrilleren The Day After Tomorrow.

En scene, der angiveligt skal vise den antarktiske skrøbelige skønhed viser i virkeligheden et landskab, der er blevet skåret ud af styrofoam, også kaldet flamingo, fotograferet og derefter behandlet i en special-effects computer.



Al Gore's "traveling global warming show," the award-winning documentary "An Inconvenient Truth," includes a long flyover shot of majestic Antarctic ice shelves. But this shot was first seen in the 2004 blockbuster "The Day After Tomorrow." Sculpted from Styrofoam and later scanned into a computer, the ice shelf "flyover" looks real.

Karen Goulekas, the special effects supervisor for "The Day After Tomorrow" said the shot is a digital image. She was glad Al Gore used it in the documentary since "It is one hell of a shot." Both movies use the shot to convincingly portray global warming, but it is left to the audience to decide if this created image can both entertain and educate us about our changing planet.




Men hvad betyder lidt snyd hér og lidt fifleri dér, så længe det er i den gode sags tjeneste?

Update: Denne video er fra Small Dead Animals:

Badebukser eller termotøj ?

Ja, hvad skal man investere i? Nu er vi blevet tudet ørerne fulde i årevis om, at vores uansvarlige omgang med firehjulstrækkere og charterferier til Mallorca uomgængeligt vil føre til Global Opvarmning™ eller i det mindste til det lidt mere uforpligtende Klimaforandringer.

Men nu advarer den australskfødte geofysiker og sol-ekspert Phil Chapman om, at manglende solplet-aktivitet nemt kan føre til en lille istid:
THE scariest photo I have seen on the internet is www.spaceweather.com, where you will find a real-time image of the sun from the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory, located in deep space at the equilibrium point between solar and terrestrial gravity.




What is scary about the picture is that there is only one tiny sunspot.


All four agencies that track Earth's temperature (the Hadley Climate Research Unit in Britain, the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York, the Christy group at the University of Alabama, and Remote Sensing Systems Inc in California) report that it cooled by about 0.7C in 2007. This is the fastest temperature change in the instrumental record and it puts us back where we were in 1930. If the temperature does not soon recover, we will have to conclude that global warming is over.

There is also plenty of anecdotal evidence that 2007 was exceptionally cold. It snowed in Baghdad for the first time in centuries, the winter in China was simply terrible and the extent of Antarctic sea ice in the austral winter was the greatest on record since James Cook discovered the place in 1770.

This is where SOHO comes in. The sunspot number follows a cycle of somewhat variable length, averaging 11 years. The most recent minimum was in March last year. The new cycle, No.24, was supposed to start soon after that, with a gradual build-up in sunspot numbers.

It didn't happen. The first sunspot appeared in January this year and lasted only two days. A tiny spot appeared last Monday but vanished within 24 hours. Another little spot appeared this Monday. Pray that there will be many more, and soon.

The next descent into an ice age is inevitable but may not happen for another 1000 years. On the other hand, it must be noted that the cooling in 2007 was even faster than in typical glacial transitions. If it continued for 20 years, the temperature would be 14C cooler in 2027.

We cannot really know, but my guess is that the odds are at least 50-50 that we will see significant cooling rather than warming in coming decades.

Desværre vil han næppe blive taget alvorligt, for, som han selv nævner:
It will be difficult for people to face the truth when their reputations, careers, government grants or hopes for social change depend on global warming.

Måske er det tid til at skifte sparepæren ud med en ordentlig motherf*cker af en 1000 watt'er.

Mere Pallywood ?

En palæstinensisk kameramand, som arbejdede for Reuters i Gaza blev dræbt i går tilsyneladende af en granat fra en israelsk kampvogn. Og der var andre ofre, et par unge knægte, der var på cykeltur ude ved fronten blev også dræbt.

Eller gjorde de? The Beeb har lagt et klip på nettet der viser blandt andet de to døde drenge og kameramandens bil.

00:28 ser man den første dreng ligge på jorden, han er ejendommeligt fredfyldt med den ene arm over ansigtet. 00:34 ser man den anden (i en hvid t-shirt). Han er tilsynladende ramt i maven, hans trøje er blodig men der er ingen blod på jorden omring ham.

00:40 inde i filmen ser man første gang bilen. Efter et krydsklip er den pludseligt et brændende inferno 00:58.

Da kameraet forlader drengen i den hvide t-shirt kan man se, at der mindst 100 meter hen til den bil, der blev ramt. Kameraet rykker nærmere og man ser en cykel henslængt i vejkanten nogle få meter fra vognen.

Det skulle vel aldrig være denne cykel?



Og drengene? Tjae, de ser ikke helt så døde ud som de gjorde i filmen. I bagrunden ses bilen, den er tydeligt ramt, men cyklen er ikke engang punkteret.

Jeg er ikke i tvivl om, at den palæstinensiske kameramand blev dræbt, højst muligt af den israelske kampvogn. Men resten af klippet - som udelukkende er lavet af palier har et umiskendeligt præg af en typisk Pallywood productions.

Total ytringsfrihed er ikke farlig, total magt er


Vise ord fra Joseph C. Ben-Ami, direktør for den canadiske tænketank Canadian Centre for Policy Studies.

Aylden, som han referer til er tidligere ambassadør, og menneskerettghedskommizar. Han har åbenbart begået et indlæg til støtte for begrænsninger af ytringsfriheden, som jeg ikke har kunnet finde. Men det er også ligemeget, for Ben-Amis ord kunne være rettet til enhver af de hjemlige tilhængere af det - i virkeligheden totalitære ønske, fra Siedenfaden og Ellemand og nedad i rækkerne.
Yalden finally waded into the debate by drawing a connection between historical events and what he calls “unfettered” free speech in a column published by the National Post. “After two disastrous world wars and the horrors of the holocaust,” he writes, “we are surely obliged to judge rather differently the anything-goes theory of free speech”. In other words, if only there had been laws limiting free speech, creatures like the Nazis might never have come to power and there might never have been a Holocaust.

This is a popular and seductive theme that proponents of hate speech laws return to again and again to justify their positions.

It’s also wrong.

Yalden wants readers to believe the Nazis were able to come to power and perpetrate the Holocaust in part because of “unfettered” free speech when in fact the opposite is true. Suppression of civil liberties in Germany, especially free speech, was essential to the Nazi’s successful acquisition and consolidation of power.

It’s a myth that Weimar Germany was a bastion of freedom and civil rights before being taken over by the Nazis. The Weimar Republic was no respecter of civil liberties and the rule of law – at least not consistently. Weimar “liberals” shut down newspapers when it suited them, they spied on political parties, they used plainclothes police or other surrogates to break up political meetings, they outlawed political parties – including the Nazis for a time, and they not only tolerated armed militias but in many instances encouraged their existence and activity while the judiciary turned a blind eye.

There is a lesson to be learned here, but it’s not the lesson that Yalden and his ideological compatriots are teaching. National Socialist Germany is not an example of what happens when hate is tolerated – it’s an example of what happens when hate is empowered. The uncomfortable fact is that the Nazis didn’t invent the apparatus of power or culture of repression in Germany, they merely took control of, and perfected, an apparatus and culture that had already been created and used by “liberals” to combat extremism.

Canada: Menneskeret ikke at vaske hænder

Mine damer og herrer, det bliver værre og værre.

I Canada har de noget, de kalder menneskerettigheds-tribunaler i de forskellige delstater. Disse tribunaler og domstole opererer så godt som egenrådigt og kan sende snart sagt en hvilken som helst person i retten ved den mindste klage. Klageren får automatisk fri proces, hvorimod den anklagede selv må til lommerne for at betale for sit eget forsvar. Advokatregningerne kan løbe op i flere hundredetusinde kroner, og endnu er ingen blevet frikendt.

Mark Steyn, som selv er havnet i den sorte gryde for "islamofobi" sammen med f.eks redaktøren Ezra Levant, har skrevet en lang række artikler omkring fænomenet. (Levant blev anklaget for den åbenlyst isamofobiske og racistiske handling at optrykke Jyllands-Postens Muhammedtegninger. Han blev prompte stedt for Pontius Pilatus og forhørt, som det kan ses her i en stribe Youtube film.)


Men tilbage til historien:

Nu skal man ikke tro, at tribunalerne kun tager sig af islamo- marihuana- eller transseksualitets-fobi.

Nej, ingen sag er for lille til dette Vogternes Råd. Således er er en filial af McDonald's blevet dømt til at betale en kvindelig tidligere ansat 55,000 dollars, heraf 25,000 (rundt regnet 110,000 kroner) for hvad der vel må kunne oversættes til liv, ære og velfærd, fordi hun havde udviklet en sæbeallergi, der gjorde at hun ikke kunne vaske hænder.

Hendes chef var forståeligt nok lidt utryg ved at have en ansat med snavsede fingre og sorte negle i køkkenet på sin familierestaurant, og efter flere længere sygeperioder endte det med, at kvinden blev fyret. Chefens argumenter om hensyntagen til sine kunder faldt imidlertid på stengrund i British Columbia Human Rights Tribunal.

Et af de afgørende punkter som kommisionen hæftede sig ved var følgende:
There was no evidence of:
* the relationship between food contamination and hand-washing;
Sådan! Mere end 100 års medicinsk videnskab slettet med et pennestrøg af en jurist. Hvad bliver det næste de tager fat i? Tyngdeloven? Jeg tror jeg går på Burger King en anden gang. Personligt synes jeg det burde være en menneskeret ikke at risikere en maveforgiftning fordi en ansat ikke kan vaske hænder efter hun har været på lokum, men sådan er vi jo så forskellige.

Global opvarming vil føre til mord på hekse

Det er ikke småting Den Globale Opvarmning™ efterhånden vil få på samvittigheden. I New York Times skriver Nicolas D. Cristof således at varmen vil øge antallet af mord på hekse i Afrika.
Here’s a forecast for a particularly bizarre consequence of climate change: more executions of witches.

In rural Tanzania, murders of elderly women accused of witchcraft are a very common form of homicide. And when Tanzania suffers unusual rainfall — either drought or flooding — witch-killings double, according to research by Edward Miguel, an economist at the University of California, Berkeley.

“In bad years, the killings explode,” Professor Miguel said. He believes that if climate change causes more drought years in Tanzania, the result will be more elderly women executed there and in other poor countries that still commonly attack supposed witches.


Som bevis på sin påstand bruger Cristof endnu en økonom:
There is evidence that European witch-burnings in past centuries may also have resulted from climate variations and the resulting crop failures, economic distress and search for scapegoats. Emily Oster, a University of Chicago economist, tracked witchcraft trials and weather in Western Europe between 1520 and 1770 and found a close correlation: colder weather led to more crackdowns on witches.

In particular, Europe’s “little ice age” led to a sharp cooling in the late 1500s, and that corresponds to a renewal in witchcraft trials after a long lull. And there’s also micro-evidence: in one area, a brutally cold May in 1626 led outraged peasants to call for punishment of witches thought responsible.

Den lille istid, I ved den, der sluttede da en global opvarmning satte ind, utvivlsomt på grund af røgen fra alle de hekseafbrændinger.

Hvorfor bliver arabere terrorister?

Glem alt om diverse "forskeres" (bort)forklaringer på, hvorfor næsten alle terrorister er muslimer.

Nej, John Laws har den rigtige forklaring. Det skyldes alt det forbandede sand!
Man får den fulde fornøjelse ved samtidig at høre ham her.

"Ever wonder why Middle Eastern Muslim terrorists are so quick to volunteer on a mission to commit suicide, this document says.

Just take a closer look at their lifestyle, this document says.

No premarital sex, no booze, none, never.
Sand, f*****g sand everywhere.
No TV, no cable TV, no satellite TV, no Spice channel.
No Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition.
Sand, f*****g sand everywhere.
No organized sport of any kind. That's right no sports.
Women are to be completely covered and wear veils. No thongs, no Victoria's Secret.
Very, very few cars.
Camels, lots of camels. Stinking, filthy camels.
Sand, f*****g sand everywhere. Ever try to fish in an oasis?
Sandstorms, more f*****g sand everywhere.
Rags for clothes and hats.
Camel and goat burgers cooked out of burning camel tongue chips.
Toilet tissue's unknown.
Sand, f*****g sand everywhere.
No golf, just sand traps.
Constant wailing nextdoor. No, wait a minute, that's music.
Praying five times a day, for what? More of this life?
Oh, and did I mention the f*****g sand?
And when you die it's supposed to get better.
No wonder they volunteer for suicide missions."

Kvindelig Kunstner KIA

Jeg er kynisk nok til at synes, at denne historie er en lille smule morsom - omend på en tragisk baggrund. Men et eller andet sted illustrerer historien meget godt den totale mangel på realitetssans som så mange "kunstnere" på venstrefløjen synes at lide under.
An Italian woman artist who was hitch-hiking to the Middle East dressed as a bride to promote world peace has been found murdered in Turkey.

She had said she wanted to show that she could put her trust in the kindness of local people.


Ms di Marineo was hitch-hiking from Milan to Israel and the Palestinian Territories with a fellow artist on their "Brides on Tour" project.

They had separated in Istanbul, planning to reunite in Beirut.

Klædt ud som en brud, blaffende sig vej gennem Mellemøsten for at promovere Verdensfreden®. Ak ja, kunst på højt plan. Den arme "kunstner" havde en overlevelseschance på niveau med en guldfisk i en blender.

I det mindste synes hendes søster at have en smule fornuft i behold:
"Her travels were for an artistic performance and to give a message of peace and of trust, but not everyone deserves trust," another sister, Maria, told the Italian news agency, Ansa.
Så sandt, så sandt.

Update: Politiken har også fundet historien. Klokket 12.22. Nogen må åbenbart læse denne blog. :-)

Indsamlingen er slut - et flertal blev ikke opnået

Så måtte den radikale Flemming Narkinge Nielsen bide i græsset med sin fjollede underskriftsindsamling. (Læs mere på Urias)

Narkinge havde forsøgt sig med en indsamling i det forfængelige håb at få "et flertal af danskere" til at protestere mod Wilders film Fitna samt Dansk Folkepartis tilstedeværelse.
Jeg vil gerne undskylde. Som dansker skammer jeg mig over Dansk Folkepartis udtalelser vedrørende den Hollandske film Fitna, lavet af den nationalistiske islamfobiske Wilders.

Det er pinligt, at DF ikke har så meget anstændighed, at de kan sige nok er nok. Ja flere fremtrædende medlemmer roser ligefrem filmen - som virkelighed!

Undskyldningen er for, at der findes så fremmedfjendsk et parti i blandt os dansker!

Prominente personligheder såsom Josef Stalin, Goebbels og Wahid Pedersen havde ellers beæret ham med deres signaturer ligesom det var lykkedes de 19 flykaprere fra 9/11 at give deres besyv med, på trods af arbejdet med hver især at holde 72 jomfruer tilfredsstillet.

Sidst jeg tjekkede var der omkring 38 signaturer, alt inklusive. Det kunne have været flere, men Narkinge havde en vis mani med slette kritiske kommentarer. Der ville dog trods alt nok være svært at skaffe de yderligere 2.737.877 underskrifter der skulle til for at nå målet.

Men nu er det altså slut efter blot en uge. Det var ellers lige så sjovt. :-)

Hans Gorehed er nu officielt en Profet



Så skete det endeligt. Al Gore har modtaget den Hellige Grønne Ånd og er nu en Sand Profet på linje med de andre Profeter i biblen.

In an introduction of Gore, Robert Parham, executive director of the Baptist Center for Ethics, called the former Democratic presidential nominee a "Baptist prophet"


Gore har set ind i fremtiden, og Han har set, at den er dyster:
"This is not a political issue," Gore told a crowd of approximately 2,500 paying attendees. "It is a moral issue. It is an ethical issue. It is a spiritual issue."

Gore, citing Luke 12:54-57 for scriptural support, argued that it is dishonest for anyone to claim that global warming is merely a theory rather than a scientific fact.

Og som en Sand Profet advarer Han mod kommende ulykker medmindre vi vender os mod Gaia:
"The evidence is there," he said. "The signal is on the mountain. The trumpet has blown. The scientists are screaming from the rooftops. The ice is melting. The land is parched. The seas are rising. The storms are getting stronger. Why do we not judge what is right?
Stærk tale, men dog endnu ikke helt på linje med Johannes Åbenbaring kapitel seks:
Lammet brød nu det fjerde segl, og jeg hørte det fjerde levende væsen råbe: »Kom!« Og ud kom en gustengul fhv. præsidentkandidat, og dens rytter hed »CO2«, og den Globale Opvarmning fulgte lige efter ham. De fik magt til at dræbe over en fjerdedel af jordens befolkning med krig og sult, med sygdom og vilde dyr.
Dog, Han skal nok komme efter det. (Altså Gore, ikke Johannes) Det kræver blot lidt flere betalende tilhørere så Han (altså Gore) kan betale sin el-regning og dermed få ro til at nedskrive sine Åbenbaringer fra Moder Gaia.

(Ok, jeg snød lidt i ovenstående bibelcitat. Herren (altså Gore) vil forhåbentligt tilgive mig.)

Kritisk dialog - på socialdemokratisk

Så prøver S igen at bringe regeringen i fedtefadet efter Brian Mikkelsens overvejelser om ikke at møde op til OLs åbningsceremoni i Beijing til sommer.

TV2 News bragte i dag et interview med en stærkt opbragt Helle Thorning Schmidt, oppositionens efterhånden nummer tre efter Tøger Seidenfaden og Villy Søvndal.



Den gode Thorning sagde bl.a. "Det er topmålet af hykleri. Ministerne har ikke fået en instruks med, at de skal indgå i en kritisk dialog med kineserne. Det var der i den gamle regering. Det har været fuldstændigt fraværende hos denne regering!"

Idet jeg her går ud fra, at hun med den gamle regering sigter til Regeringen Nyrup, der sad fra 1993 til 2001 er det en smule ejendommeligt, at hun mener regeringen dengang førte kritisk dialog med værtslandene.

Lad os tage dem i rækkefølge:

Første OL, som regeringen Nyrup var involveret i var vinterlegene i Lillehammer, Norge i 1994. Så fulgte sommer OL i Atlanta, USA.
Næste OL i skidrop foregik i Nagano, Japan fulgt af Sydney, Australien og endeligt overlevede regeringen længe nok til at sende en minister til Salt Lake City, igen i USA.

USA, Norge, Japan og Australien. Vitterlig lande med hvem man bør føre kritisk dialog. Sandelig godt vi blev regeret af Socialkammeraterne i 90'erne. Hvis ikke de havde ført kritisk dialog dengang, hvem ved hvordan verden så ville have set ud i dag.

Man gyser ved tanken.

Støt Geert Wilders

Normalt giver jeg ikke meget for on-line underskriftsindsamlinger, men denne lyder ganske fornuftig:
To: The Dutch Government

WHEREAS Geert Wilders has exercised his fundamental human right of freedom of expression and spoken out, with facts and evidence, of the threat posed by radical Islam;

WHEREAS certain elements within Islamic communities have threatened a boycott of Dutch goods if Geert Wilders is not punished by the Dutch government for exercising his freedom of expression; and

WHEREAS certain elements in Dutch industry and the Dutch government are suggesting that Geert Wilders be prosecuted civilly or criminally, in order to prevent such a boycott;

IT IS RESOLVED that, in the event that the Dutch government attempts, in any way, to punish or prosecute Geert Wilders, civilly or criminally, for exercising his freedom of expression, the undersigned will initiate a boycott of any and all Dutch goods.

Sincerely,


Skriv under her.
