I am happy to have found this site, with it's wealth of information and opinion. I also appreciate that there are probably as many theories as there
are people to have them. I admit that as I get older I grow more cynical about the media and the establishment (in many ways I know the two to be
indistinguishable). I joined the SWP a couple of years ago because I was heartily sick of the lies told by Bliar and his cronies. Unfortunately the
SWP are hopelessly naive and sadly do not represent a viable political alternative...
It seems to me that here in the UK we are under a constant barrage of catastrophe, from insane swarthy bombers to global warming and imminent attack
from virulent super viruses. I'm not clear about who said it but I remember some educated chap making a comment about ruling with fear - and boy is
that ringing some alarm bells now!
I did some ad-hoc googling about Foot and Mouth the same evening I looked up Global Warming, and I must say some of the things I found gave me
pause.
Two thirds of the cattle infected with F&M survive. The virus isn't transferable in the meat or the milk. Only one incidence of F&M has been recorded
in a human and that 'victim' developed mild flu-like symptoms that they recovered from in a short time. So why is the Government slaughtering every
cow they suspect of having it?
I don't believe people are paranoid without cause in contemporary society. I also don't believe we in the UK are at any greater a risk from
terrorists today than when the IRA were at their peak operations in Mainland Britain in the 1970s and 80s.
I also believe the US establishment were implicit in the events of 9/11, and that like all cover-ups the truth may never be released. Just because
you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you!
Thank whichever deity you believe in for the Internet and some form of freedom of speech...
