CounterPunch article saying Queen should behead Blair

This article says 9 out of 10 Britons regard Blair as a liar and a fraud. He lays the truth on the situation and he actually calls for the Queen to behead Blair. In his words- "off with the traitor's head; after a fair trial of course."

Edit to add- I cannot believe I forgot the link- http://www.counterpunch.org/hastings03192005.html The article is titled "Why the Queen Should Chop Off Blair's Head-Treason on Downing Street."

remember only 4 paragraphs w/ linky...

duh...thanks for posting article

On the matter of the dead and maimed British servicemen. The armed forces swear allegiance to Queen and country, not the government of the day. Implicit in that oath is the assumption that their lives will not be misspent in a war launched on a raft of lies. The dead are asking the monarch why they were slaughtered in the service of the Washington neo-conservatives and their Israeli friends.

On the matter of the established church. Mr Blair likes to advertise his active Christianity and is a regular churchgoer. His partner, President Bush, thinks Jesus is talking to him and directing his next action. It would be prudent for the CofE to convene an ecclesiastical court to examine Mr Blair as to the extent to which he thinks his actions are being directed by Jesus. I am quite sure that it is established doctrine that if the Messiah returns he will advertise his presence in a more objective manner than via Mr Blair.

On the matter of the coming Parliamentary elections. Mr Blair wilfully misled Parliament and public alike. He breached the UN charter and the prohibition of aggressive war. He is probably both a war criminal and a traitor. When criminals are detected in high office it is not the electorate's job to pass judgement, it is a job for the police and the courts. In a democracy the likes of Mr Blair should be removed from office before they can stand again. If that is not possible then we may as well dispense with Parliamentary democracy and have another system instead.

One of his major policy planks for the coming election is a compulsory identity card scheme. The card and the possible compulsion to carry it is a red herring; what we are really looking at is a compulsory registration exercise, the output being various unchanging identifications and a registration number for life, as indelible as a concentration camp tattoo. Given Mr Blair's record thus far, this is a very dangerous step indeed.

Much of what he says does not sound authentic and/or just silly ("the dead are asking the monarch" etc - what a twit, the relatives of the dead are asking the Government, more like). I live here (in London), and I have not heard anyone say that they are not going to bother to vote in the upcoming general election. People are mad as hell about having been lied to about WMD in Iraq. The Government is doing its darndest to make the election be about education, pensions, small businesses, but people want to talk about the war.

Capital punishment is not lawful here now, either; it is possible that it is still the ultimate penalty for treason but "Warren Hastings" does not say anything about treason.

And "Warren Hastings" has not read the Bible, otherwise he would not talk such tosh about the Second Coming "advertising" the Messiah's presence.

Finally, the new identity card scheme legislation is likely to be lost before the election. And just how is a registration number (which everyone already has, their National Insurance number or their National Health number) like a tattoo?

"Warren Hastings" has a personal agenda, that is evident, but as he is so illiterate I can't be bothered to work out what it is.

Thanks for the input. I thought the least the guy could have done was tell when the election is scheduled. I do hope Blair takes a thumping, like Bush deserved. I wanted to see the Liberal Democrats improve in the current mess, but they do not seem to have gained anything.

In other words, a pretty transparent pseudonym.

It makes you wonder if he is afraid of the PTB in Britain because there is no information at the bottom of the article. It is the first time I have ever noticed that and I read CounterPunch everyday.

Maybe he is afraid of ending up in a torture chamber. Really.

...Off with his head!!!!
