London mayor says PM is a "war criminal" whose place is in prison By Israel Insider staff and partners March 4, 2005

London mayor Ken Livingstone denounced Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon as a war criminal, accused Israel of carrying out ethnic cleansing, and rejected accusations of anti-Semitism, and brushed off fresh calls to apologize for his comparison of a Jewish reporter to a concentration camp guard. [/QUOTE] Uh oh! A European official had the “chutzpah” to criticize the top Jew?

Things are looking up!

Red Ken was in the national televised news media for two or three days due his concentration camp comments. Anyway, it’s leading edge (and ultimately safe) to criticise Israel in many European countries these days because Israel is (apparently) a White racist colonial state oppressing peoples o’ colour.

This part of his statement is intriguing: [QUOTE]The Mayor went so far as to say that Israeli policies were endangering people in London. "They are also fueling anger and violence across the world. For a mayor of London not to speak out against such injustice would not only be wrong -- but would also ignore the threat it poses to the security of all Londoners." [/QUOTE] Ken mate, if the Pakis are misbehaving sort it through domestic - not foreign - policy.

Strange is it not - that this Mayor of London supports a terrorist organization that bombed London (the IRA). But is elected?

That indicates something of Londoners.

And London remains the terrorist capital of Europe. They are still welcome there. Every terrorist group has an office in London. The Liberal supported Crime-Capital of Europe.

President Bush has told Minister Blair to eradicate them. But it is so multi-layered and established it is a house-by-house search for vermin. However, he is trying very hard to deal with it.

It is lucky for Blair that he is British. Otherwise he would be in a cell awaiting trial.

[QUOTE=Mentzer]Strange is it not - that this Mayor of London supports a terrorist organization that bombed London (the IRA). But is elected?[/QUOTE] No, that's how Ken got elected in the first place. He specialises in appealing to interest groups outside the Labour mainstream, which is exactly what Livingstone is doing with his Sharon commentary.

Which interest groups was he trying to appeal to?

[QUOTE=Walter Yannis]Which interest groups was he trying to appeal to?[/QUOTE] In this recent instance: London's substantial Muslim population. Ken has good political instincts and is thus an early adopter of issues that, sooner or later, become cause célèbres on the mainstream left. Plus it must be difficult for a canny political survivor like Livingstone not to notice the demographic writing on the wall.

[/QUOTE] Zhid oligarchs are very welcome there. The UK, Isreal (and now Ukraine) are the countries they prefer to hide in, sure as hell they won't be extradited. Also, Chechen "freedom fighters" are headquartered in London.

Did the UK earn the title Churkestan West?
