For once, I've actually decided to vent my disgust at the world rather than just bottle it all up and wait to explode at some unsuspecting person when they cut in front of me in a queue. Today, I am mostly pissed off with the American secret service, and not because of Wikileaks (although I really do hope that case falls though and they release the poor guy). No, I am am pissed off with them because they have decided to start another Crusade.
It was apparently not enough for the US to self appoint itself as the police force of the whole freaking world. Now they seem to feel the need to hire convicts, pay them in excess of £100,000 and have them attempt to incite acts of violence from the Muslim community so they can then point the finger of blame and label them all terrorists. I actually cannot quite express enough just how disgusted I am with this course of action, nor how relieved I am that in this latest case it failed so abysmally. Not only did the insurgent fail to incite anyone to blow anything up, he freaked out his intended target so much that they actually filed for a restraining order on him, saying that they were worried he might be a terrorist and a bad influence on the community.
Once again, the 'War on Terror' has become a terrorist attack in itself, creating fear amongst those who are innocent. It is completely unacceptable that a government feels it can spy on and abuse it's citizens in this way just because they practice a certain belief system. It really makes me wonder, just what is America so terrified of Wikileaks exposing?
