(What, more fear than terrorism itself?) She says people in Britain feel as if they are living “under a police state because of the fear being spread by ministers.” (She must have said that before she saw last night’s Panorama.) So, what about the fear being spread by extremist Islam? What about fear being spread by the government’s delusion, heavily promoted by the BBC, that a moderate version of Islam can be set against an extreme version to bring about a multicultural paradise? Frank Gardner now says Stella Rimmington rang the BBC to say that she had been slightly misreported. (Surely not!) Frank Gardner thinks she meant something about winning hearts and minds. Maybe, if we adopt some Sharia law as recommended by the Archbish, cover up our wimmin and confine them indoors, keep gays underground, wipe Israel off the map, and eradicate those annoying Jews, that would do the trick. Maybe those measures would win hearts and minds. Someone very clever indeed or very stupid might be able to argue that it would bring our civil liberties back. But would it stop all that violence and terror? It didn’t do Frank (Help me I’m a Muslim) all that much good, did it. Comments: 77 (unread) - Biased BBC Home David Vance # BEATIFYING ROBERT. I listened to quite a bizarre exchange on the BBC Today this morning concerning the shambles that is Zimbabwean politics. The new line being peddled is that "perhaps" Mugabe himself is not responsible for the arrest of MDC nominee Roy Bennett and indeed he may not even be responsible for the detention of dozens of MDC supporters in recent times. The suggestion is that unspecified "hard-liners" in the military are now calling the shots and Mugabe could be their victim. Remarkable! Is this the beginning of the BBC's beatification of Marxist thug Mugabe.

I listened to an item on Today early this morning circa 6.40am and essentially the discussion instantly turned away from what Cameron proposes to do and focused instead on Margaret Thatcher taking power away from "loony left" councils, the poll tax and monkeys getting elected as Mayor in Rochdale. I know that Caroline Spelman will be on later, I don't fancy her chances! Expect to hear the BBC interviewer blurt out "Thatcher - poll tax" before the interview is concluded.

First, terrorism and violence. They Don't like it. Second, the new one they they’ve just noticed. In a slight shift from the diversity agenda where ‘there’s no right or wrong, only different’ - now they’ve noticed that preaching against western values is not such a good idea either. Even our good friend Lord Ahmed is on board. In a sudden reversal of policy he now says: "We need to empower the mainstream Muslim leadership and the scholars so they can actually hold the arguments and debates within the Muslim society." Just keep Geert Wilders out of the way, though, eh. As per interview on Today it seems new Muslim thinking is: Good Muslims oppose terrorism. Although they believe man-made laws cannot be supreme, they must put immutable words of the Koran on one side and disregard God’s law while living in countries that practice man’s law. I assume they must just be content to introduce Koranic ideologies gradually, by democratic means, such as those of great philosopher Sheikh Khalid Yassin "If you prefer the clothing of the Kaffirs [non-believers] other than the clothing of the Muslims - most of those names on most of that clothing is faggots, homosexuals and lesbians." Watch out Beeboids! Oh yes, and don’t forget, it’s all because of Gaza, and this country’s foreign policy. Comments: 79 (unread) - Biased BBC Home
