(Is the land of the Magna Carta really as finished as this article contends? Anyone who is more up-to-date on Old Blighty than the rest of us might want to comment -- I am guessing Mr James is being extreme to make his point. I could be wrong.)
[B]What Hutton Is Really Saying [/B]
By Michael James
[url]http://www.rense.com/general48/huttue.htm[/url]
There can now be little doubt in the minds of independent and free-thinking men and women that the British ruling elite has all but abandoned any pretence of observing the democratic niceties of the post-Cold War era and are now steeling themselves for the next phase of conquest and repression. [B]The ongoing coup d'état, which started with the assassination of the antiwar Princess Diana and which continues in the militarization of British domestic and foreign policy under the calculating auspices of the proven war criminal Tony Blair, saw its most recent manifestation in a brilliant diversionary sideshow, the Hutton Inquiry.[/B]
The inquiry itself, headed by an intellectually decrepit "Lord" whose hands had already been bloodied in the handing down of imperial British "justice" to Irish Patriots in the 1970s, exposed a manipulative and deceitful Blair administration intent on crafting lies to sell an unpopular war. Yet the final report, shocking in its gratuitous homage to the naked power of the state, absolved the "Prime Minister" of any blame in the circumstances leading to the suicide - some are saying murder - of arms expert David Kelly.
The dispute is notable for four main reasons. Firstly, it provided Blair with a political theatre, refocusing public attention away from the illegality of the invasion and occupation of Iraq. Secondly, it provided him with the means by which he could finally bring to heel those factions of the establishment too "liberal" in their critique of government policy. Thirdly, it gave the Murdoch media empire a green light on the government's continued fealty and its desire to dismantle the BBC in favour of Murdoch's indefatigable predatory ambitions. Fourthly, [B]it allowed him to send an unmistakable message to opponents of the phoney "war on terror": Think very carefully about what you say and write, for I have the will and the power to crush you, to humiliate you and to destroy your careers and livelihoods.[/B]
[B]The governing British Parliamentary Labour Party, itself an emerging corporate front-end for the arms industry, is now breathing more easily in its other newly found collective persona - a special elite of executive murderers and child killers.[/B] Its traditionally pacifist old guard and younger idealists uncomfortable with the new (albeit politically-correct) National Socialism, will continue to raise unsettling questions before they are sidelined and eventually retired or deselected. Like the antiwar and pro-Palestinian George Galloway, they will be deemed irrelevant or marked out as dangerous fringe lunatics out of step with the new order of corporate-military realities.
[B]American readers should be reminded that all this is happening in a country where subject-citizens have no constitutional right to bear arms,[/B] indeed have no written constitution at all. Life in the British state has always been a trade-off of personal liberties against fancy welfare benefits and the spurious promise of protection under the common law of the land. [B]In survey after survey the vast majority of the British people, already by means of CCTV the most closely watched in the western world, have indicated that they are only too happy to carry biometric identity cards and surrender most of their residual freedoms in return for greater "security" and progress in the ever-widening and perpetually insurmountable "war on crime".[/B] That their own ruling elite, which history has shown to be ruthless in the brutal suppression of dissent in former colonies and in Ireland, might one day square them through the barrel of a gun and slaughter them as surplus to requirement is an urgent consideration naively absent in their minds.
In stark contrast to America and Ireland, there is no culture of resistance abroad in the British state. Even those in a position to fight and make a stand - such as BBC General Director Greg Dyke - capitulate like frightened puppy dogs at the crack of the master's whip. [B]Such genuflection before one's perceived social "superiors" or complete surrender of self-worth and personal dignity in the face of state authority is deeply ingrained in the psyche of every Briton, particularly in the English.[/B] Yet the speed with which draconian "anti-terror" laws have been slammed through parliament and the brazen Huttonian clampdown on free speech and dissent, even within the outer circle of the establishment itself, suggests that this is not enough to gird the ruling elite against the fearful consequences of the coming social emergency.
It is therefore hardly surprising to learn that [B]President Bush and John Ashcroft, mindful that their own munchkins are tugging at the Wizard's obscuring curtain of lies, are now studying the brilliant coup d'état that spawned the Hutton Report.[/B] American citizens, however, may reassure themselves that when the Big Hit comes, and the goon squad begins its killing spree, they at least have the firepower to defend themselves.
In Britain, it will all be over in a day.

Ragnar, I stopped reading this hokum at the line: ââ¬Åââ¬Â¦the assassination of the antiwar Princess Dianaââ¬Â
On the Hutton report, the general consensus is that the whole thing was a whitewash; opinion polls showing that a majority of the population believe this is the case. One good thing about the inquiry is that evidence was taken in public, so any fool can see that the conclusions donââ¬â¢t follow from the evidence.

Just because for the last 200 years, or in the case of Great Britain,what you say Magna Carta .. look, the Magna Carta is a Roman invention. The English have no claim toward it nor the basis of Constitutional govt. So wake up. Its a Roman document during the years under ROMAN rule. DO YOU UNDERSTAND ? That being said, I wholly believe in monarchy. I truly believe that Charles is fit to rule, and that after his mother passes, he should assume the rule of England, and would like for him to bring America under the umbrella of his control. Call me a now 21st century Whig. It is total insanity to think that every woman, mexican, laotian, whoever is there to vote, and black/negro community with its false representation through the Jew media, so tack on Jews, and their wives and 18 year old daughters.. are you kidding me ? And their One equals my One ? The lie is that I live in a Republic. Not a Democracy.. Democracy is an ANCIENT Greek term which was only mentioned in the discourses of Socrates and his buds because at the same time they knew, through divine feed, that their scrolls and words would get to Noah. Because Noah lived at the SAME TIME and Babylon was destroyed AFTER .... the FLOOD WHICH KILLED ALL INFILTRATED BY ANGELIC POWER ( all evil angels ) because no Good angel would ever interfere with God's Plan their offspring were washed into the bowels of the Earth but their evil gorging spirit lives in the heart of Mankind as Mankind made it so. Only through the NEW INCARNATION of GODS MERCY HIS SON who rose others and Himself FROM THE DEAD can you come to ANY understanding of your own five senses.. I have SO MUCH MORE to say I can CHALLENGE ANY before me through the WORD. Media is all touchy feely.. I am not touchy feely when my friends DIE IN IRAQ to KILL INNOCENT CIVILIANS and the LIE OF 911 is not yet revealed..

Most interesting replies! My thanks.
I suspected Mr James' piece was over-the-top on purpose, at the same time the puzzling business over Diana's martyrization (picked up by Leveller) concerns me also.
Whether the fact that the English have a constitutional "right to bear arms" strikes me as a bit beside the point. Assuming there is some communitarianism left, it'll go back to "all for one and one for all." When people stick up for kin, they'll get the guns even if they have to throw a little junta party. I doubt if it's anywhere near that point anyway.
It would be enjoyable to see both Bush and Blair pushed out of office at the same time. Both seem to be a pair of empty suits to me. Scandals will do as well as anything else.

thats right, Rag Man. Its fairly obvious to anyone with a good mind based on true history and the nature of current events that the MOB RULES LOWEST COMMON DENOMINATOR quality of leaders but Britain and the US have had and continue to suffer under is most inadequate and sadly laughable while at the same time being utterly repulsive and unbearable. The yoke , the burden, of free men , yes MEN ONLY electing leaders was well done for the first 70 years of the American EXPERIMENT, then it began to fall apart for many reasons you are well aware of. As my previous posts said, there is no doubt in MY MIND that England would be BETTER OFF and more a REAL England if Charles could be King in DEED, and as far as the Un-United States are concerned, we have to let it change. We've got two Skull and Bones members vying for the de-facto leaders of the WORLD here... doesn't this scare any thinking man ? I know John Kerry denounced it years ago, but he's still a BONESMAN TIL DEATH. Continuance of this FALSE DICHOTOMY between Republicrats and Demopublicans as they are, the voting rights of every criminal, retard, fool, money grubbing welfare mother, assisted living parasite, alien to the state, Communist conspirator, anti-Christian anti-moral degenerate, blinded Christian Zionists who are IGNORANT of fact, and your idiotic little cousin who just turned 18 after going through a chilhood of miscegnation and demoralizing public schooling which encouranges him to perform homosexual acts, their ONE is MY ONE. AND IT INFURIATES ME TO NO END.
