Foreign Stormtroopers Invade London

 

How welcome do you think a pack of Nazi Stormtroopers (SA, aka “Brownshirts”) would have been in London in, say the summer of 1939, a few months after Kristallnacht, when all the world knew of Germany’s escalating purges, disenfranchisement and mass murders of Jews and other political and ethnic minorities?

Not very welcome, one would imagine. So can someone please explain why Gordon Brown and the London Police have kow-towed to these alien thugs in blue costumes, the Police force of a non-allied foreign nation?

I’ll have more to say about those Chinese stormtroopers and their parallels with the Nazi Sturmabteilung in the coming weeks. Let’s see if the French have the cojones to give them a harder time than the craven, sniveling, simpering, slavish British government has done.

UPDATE

 From The Guardian:

 

The Metropolitan police and the Chinese embassy have declined to discuss who employs the attendants or their diplomatic status, but the Metropolitan police commander Bob Broadhurst stressed before the event that they have no executive power while in the UK.

 

In other words, they were exercising physical force IN UNIFORM AND UNDER IMPLIED COLOUR OF THE AUTHORITY OF THE PRC, outside the rule of law of the United Kingdom. When you cut through the Orwellian doublespeak, this means they, and China, were conducting an act of war, however small, against the United Kingdom – an act of war to which the British government has surrendered.

 

China’s Flaming Bag of Poo on Britain’s Doorstep

The Torch will visit London today.   At least among the civilians, its arrival will not be especially welcome.

An American friend of ours once told us about a bizarre American custom of filling a paper bag with poop, setting it on fire and dropping it on a disliked neighbour’s doorstep.  Apparently it’s something they do on Halloween.

Doesn’t that sound like the Olympic Torch relay through all the countries China doesn’t like?  (China doesn’t have the slightest respect for any countries other than itself, but that’s beside the point.)

So here’s your cartoon-of-the-day, “Flaming Bag of Poo“:  Londoners, get out your fire extinguishers!

UPDATE

 

Two activists were taken away by police after attempting to put out the torch with fire extinguishers.  Martin Wyness and Ashley Darby were waiting with their equipment on the corner of Holland Park Avenue and Ladbroke Grove.  In a statement, the pair said the relay was a propaganda campaign by China to cover its “appalling human rights record”.
