Britain has travelled steadily towards the edge of the cliff in the years since 9/11

The ‘diversity that makes us strong’ from the RoP:

• Report: Britain Paying Salaries of Palestinian Terrorists…
• Pakistani Illegal Enjoys ‘Free’ Hospital Stay in the UK…
• Iraqi Asylum Seeker to Britain Goes on a Gang-Raping Spree…

The tenth anniversary of 9/11 has been marked by a fresh outbreak in Britain of the political equivalent of auto-immune disease: treating the mortal enemies of the west as the victims of the west, while treating the west’s defenders as its mortal enemies.

One thing al Qaeda got right about Britain and Europe (but not about the patriotic heartlands of the US) was that they no longer had the will to fight and die for their beliefs because they no longer knew what they were.

Surely, however, even al Qaeda could not have envisaged quite how stunningly incapable the western intelligentsia and political class would be of grasping the difference between civilisation and its would-be destroyers, and how comprehensively they would therefore play into the Islamists’ hands – even now, ten years on.

For the chattering classes seem determined to give al Qaeda a helping hand in reducing the west to a state of paralysis and impotence. According to liberal opinion, every single thing America did after 9/11 was wrong.

Breeding Surrender Monkeys:

The new head of Britain’s armed forces, Gen Sir David Richards, has warned that the West cannot defeat al-Qaeda and militant Islam.

Richards said the threat posed by ‘al-Qaeda and its affiliates’ meant Britain’s national security would be at risk for at least 30 years (Telegraph UK)

It must be something in the water: former British spy chief Manningham-Buller makes equally dumb statements: ‘Iraq War Turned British Muslims Against Britain’ and “Britain would have been safer if it had not been invaded first“

UK: leading “human rights organization” gave $322,000 to jihadist cleric al-Awlaki

Moazzam Begg of Cageprisoners wrote about al-Awlaki that it “was evident that he commanded a large following and great respect amongst many Muslims.” Indeed so. “Top charities give £200,000 to group which supported al-Qaeda cleric,” by Jason Lewis for the Telegraph, November 6 (thanks to JW)

Clintoon:  Hoping for  “CHANGE” (or pissing in the wind) in Pakistan?

Pakistan supported jihad outfits as hedge against India and Afghanistan?

Ms. Clinton said now things are “changing”, but she cannot confirm whether Pakistan has stopped the use of terror against India and Afghanistan. “That is changing… Now, I cannot sit here and tell you that it has changed, but that is changing,”

“Pakistan used terror as a hedge against India: Clinton,” from the PTI
