Sunday Telegraph

The Sunday Telegraph makes a excellent point we have been lucky so far but luck has a way of running out when you really need it, thus again the need for the government to take firm action against those that wish to destroy our Liberal Democracy. Time is running Out.

Views recalls getting up late on 9/11, he switched on the TV, he though we was watching a movie, planes in to buildings, it was like something out of 24. It is from that date that VIEWS supported the plans for the War in Iraq. That day changed the World, VIEWS does not want to wake up to something like that happening again in England, Scotland or Wales. Thus again VIEWS calls for Internment for the security of the UK.

Age of Terror

The past two days has reminded us that we live in the Age of Terror, 9/11 was the start for the USA, in the UK we had 7/7. The attempted and actual attacks of the past two days has not caused any loss of life to the general public, but reading reports it seems that those that planned both attacks where not on the radar screen of the security services, thus I will throw out a tough question, we live in a Liberal Democracy, but at what time do you ask a simple question, what is more important civil liberaties or the saftey of the public. Thus it can be argued that the government should bring back internment for those that it considers to be threat to National Security. Although we have signed up to the European Human Rights Act, this is not a reason for the government to defend the security of the people. If you don't have enough evidence to arrest an individual but enough to make you very worried about the safety of the public there is only one option, Internment.

There will be those that will argue that we ended up talking to the Terrorists in Norther Ireland, and that is true, but we can never talk to UBL or Al - Qaeda , they are opposed to Liberal Democracy in all its aspects, there can only be one winner in this War on Terror. As in 1939 we in the West can not afford to lose, no talks no meetings mid way, Al - Aaeda has to be destroyed. This War on Terror will out last those here present, the difference from the past it can be argued is that UBL and Al Qaeda will use Weapons of Mass Destruction should they get their hands on them, 9/11 and 7/7 showed that human life means nothing to these Terrorists. They would like to kill hundrerds, thousdans or even the millions. Thus VIEWS TODAY CALLS FOR INTERNMENT.

Internment has not worked in the past, USA and UK have both taken this action, but letting people off the hook because there is not enough evidence is not a good enough reason. If you cant bring people to trial but you have enough evidence to be worried it is better to place these people in a place where you can look after them but also investigate their case more without the pressure of having to let them go after 28 or 90 days. It should be noted that although VIEWS is a Neo Con in a real way VIEWS is a Classic Liberal, Limited Government but the role of Government is to protect the people. Thus it is time for serious people to think outside the box, security of all the people of the UK must come first and last.

Executive Privilege

The DEMOCRATS smell another Watergate over the firing of US Attorney's, thus the demand for documents. This is attempt to try and find anything illegal and Bush is right to state that he has Executive Privilege when it comes to internal discussions within the White House.

Blair Questioned 3rd Time

Tony Blair was questioned for a third time by the police in the cash for honours investigation. This is time for the new Prime Minister and the Attorney General to close down the investigation. All those involved have denied any wrong doing, it is time to finish this business. The new administration has Iraq to deal with, we have lost three soldiers today, time to move on from the past and deal with pressing problems that face the UK today.

CIA Secrets

The CIA has released its past secrets, depending on your point of view a great idea or a very bad idea. But if you take that away, a must read if you have an interest in the CIA ( PDF Required )

The above is all those operations that the Liberals go on about, Castro etc. The really interesting stuff is what the the CIA thought about the USSR ( Russia ) and China between 1953 and 1973.

Republican Poll - Iowa 2008

On the Republican side we have the following results. Strategic Vision Poll RCP Poll of Polls

Mitt Romney 23 %

Fred Thompson 17%

Rudy Giuliani 14 %

On Iraq we have a majority that want to get out but the there is a huge difference in the level between the Republicans and the Democrats. Here are the results: Yes 56% - No 38%. Also on the Republican side looking at the figures over 65% want a Reagan type figure to lead the Republicans. Thus Fred Thompson just might be the next " Reagan ".

New Polls for 2008 - Democrats

A new Poll is Iowa Strategic Vision Poll

Edwards 26 %

Obama 21 %

Clinton 20 %

It is interesting when you go in to the Poll how Iraq plays a Part in the process. Asked should the USA get out of Iraq in Six moths, Yes = 83% - No = 6%. Thus we have Edwards ahead in Iowa. Al Gore could of course still come in to the race.
