Dear alt.sailing.asa and uk.rec.sailing

McDiarmid wrote this letter to the London
Daily Telegraph:

"Dear Editor,

"The whole world rings with Christmas joy
and love as the capture of the indescribable
Saddam Hussein is announced. But, forgive
my ignorance, what has he done?

"It is true there are rumours of mass graves and
other nasties but the Security Industries of the
West churn these out routinely and it is said on
the Continent, where I live, that only the Brits
believe their media.

"All I see is a man who likes animals and children,
became the beloved elected leader of his people,
was falsely accused of creating weapons of mass
destruction and had his country invaded as a
consequence. So,what has he done?

"Dr Trevor Artingstoll"

***************************

My reply to him is as follows:

Now, there's old McDiarmid rearing his feisty head . . .

I must ask the dear man why would I wish to republish that
which should not have been published in the first place other
than in the name of a belief in freedom of speech?

Asking what has Saddam Hussein done to deserve being
dragged out of his hidey hole is tantamount to asking
what has Hitler done to deserve infamy? Some claim there
was no holocaust in the face of the overwhelming reality.
These same defective minds live on in those who deny the
reality of Saddam Hussein.

Even if "All I see is a man who likes animals and children,
became the beloved elected leader of his people, was falsely
accused of creating weapons of mass destruction and had
his country invaded as a consequence" was meant to be parody
or sarcasm the statement still does a disservice because it feeds
the ignorance of the chronically uniformed, supports the dogma
of the average leftist and, most dangerously, encourages the
enmity of the Islamic radical, stoking furnace fires of Jihad.


Respectfully,

Good troll.

And here is a copy of my letter on the subject published in The Times
on16/12/03:

"Dear Sir,
Finding Saddam Hussein is irrelevant to the justification for the war. We
went to war because we were told there was a real threat from Weapons of
Mass Destruction. None have been found. This should not be forgotten amid
the euphoria of politicians trying to move the goalposts.
Yours faithfully,
Duncan Heenan"

Well Simple Simon, when the UN weapons inspectors asked for more time, Bush
refused and instead declared war, killing thousands and ruining the country.
When we asked 'where are the WMD's' he asked for more time. Why should we
give it? He should resign if he has any trace of honour. He hasn't, of
course, so the American people should kick him out at the next election if
they want the world to think they have any trace of honour.

Simple Trollman.

Listen to President Bush's many speeches and even a closed-
minded individual such as yourself will be forced to conclude
that WMDs were only one of the several reasons we included
Iraq in our larger war against terrorists. Americans are aware
of this and it is one of the main reasons Mr. Bush has the
support of close to 60% of Americans polled in this matter.
Americans don't give a hoot what a bunch of European
socialists have to say. What do they know about it? What
right do any such pacifists have to tell the United States
of America how to prosecute the war against terrorism?
We will do what is in our best interest and to Hell with
all you busybodies sticking your snotty noses where they
don't belong.

Evidence of WMD programs has been found. Read David
Kay's report. It is only a matter of time before actual WMDs
are located and displayed just like it was only a matter of
time before Saddam Hussein was found and just like it's
only a matter time before bin Laden is found and it's
just a matter of time before terrorists are crushed.

But, people like you will not believe the actual evidence any
more than you believe Saddam Hussein tortured and butchered
up hundreds of thousands of his own people. Rather than waiting
for evidence of WMDs you'd rather side with a murderous
dictator and do everything you can to allow his activities to
continue.

Shame on you!

Which poll? I thought the latest polls show around 50% of americans aren't
willing to suffer the moron for another term. Mr. Bush is stumbling left
and right, and just watch what happens when he opens his stupid mouth
endorsing that bill banning homosexuals from marriage. The Bush
administration is a sinking ship, and you Simon, are a sinking troll.

Currently two-thirds of Americans support the military action taken in Iraq, up two points since September but down from a high of
81 percent in early April when major combat was still underway.

"The poll found that in the two days after Saddam's capture, Bush's overall approval rating rose six points to 58 percent, the
highest level since last July, and up from 52 percent in the four days before the former Iraqi leader's arrest. "

Lovely. I thought you said his rating was 60%.
