War criminal Blair's attack on the alternative media.

Let's just quickly look at this: Blair's recent attack effectively on blogs like this. I guess that means we have won the arguments then.

The speech contains the usual obvious soundbytes to set the tone like 'changing context' and '21st century' (see this) and so on.

Although Blair starts with the mainstream media, naturally, none of this is aimed at the BBC, or the Daily Mail, or the 'Independent' (who Blair duplicitously pretends to complain about) all of whom by far on balance, carry out the will of the same consituency Blair represents pretty much most of the time.

The mainstream media is either so utterly impotent or so totally complicit that it poses no threat at all and can usually be relied upon to comformatably blindly report spin from the government as news or fudge the issues of the day into crap like 'Germans put bugs in our wheelie bins'. It can be relied upon to be pro ID-cards (BBC), pro CCTV (BBC), pro European world government (BBC) and so on, pro 'War on Terror' (Telegraph, BBC) etc. It can't quite be too overtly pro- Iraq war these days, although privately, with the exception of ITN and perhaps one or 2 other outlets, the integrity of the MSM's 'anti-warness' has to be questioned.

So this whole stream of waffle by Blair is aimed squarely at the alternative media, and what Blair is trying to do is blame everyone else for the correctly appalled response to his vile crimes, the crimes of his party and supporters and backers.
Blair says:

"The damage saps the country's confidence and self-belief; it undermines its assessment of itself, its institutions; and above all, it reduces our capacity to take the right decisions, in the right spirit for our future.''

Sure, so you can get a nice compliant green light to drop bombs on Iran ? So you can get guillable British citizens to line up to join the quantized human pleb grid. So no one questions what happens when a 'terrorist event' occurs and all dotingly rally behind the government and start worshipping it again ?

But it is the country, not some nebulous desirable 'relationship between media and public life' that is wholly damaged, and it is Blair and his vile supporters that have willfully and with enormous and giddy glee caused that damage to the country and to its institutions. None of that is an accident, or some misunderstanding, on the contrary it's all quite deliberate.

It's not the alternative media that decided to declare War on Iraq, and it feverishly trying to create a conflict with Iran. It is not the alternative media that is obsessed with enslaving its population into a quantized grid, or uploading medical records and then sharing them council workers, installing CCTV netwoeks in every nook and crannie and putting bugs in wheelie bins, or trying to use the mini world government of the EU to collect people's private internet data. It's not the alternative media that gave a thumbs up to the bombing of Lebanon, or to the torture of people in Uzbekistan.

The alternative media is an appropriate response to that damage that Blair, Brown, Clarke, Reid, Milliband, Falconer, Hoon, Levy, Campbell, Mandelson and many others have caused.

And the only remedy for this terrible damage is in the alternative media, not in the ghoulish grotesque ambition of the stained Gordon Brown ever sweatily fumbling for power and trying to distance himself from the attrocities in Iraq when it is politically expedient to do so, or the outgoing speeches of a vile disgraced sociopath like Blair, or the hopeless projection of worthless ideas from various pro-regime Guardian columnists onto the rotting goverment.

The country is badly badly damaged as I've said here for a long time now, there's no point arguing about it, or denying it. It's just the reality, and a dangerously reality where it is becoming altogether undesirable to live here at all or even be associated with this country.

It is a really serious situation. The rule of law is badly damaged, the meaning of the state is enormously damaged, and the governement is irrepairrably damaged because of its own horrendous actions and it is so seriously compromised as an entity now, that quite honestly it is difficult to see what point there is in contributing to this mess anymore.

It should come as no surprise that such a rotting demonic monster, this conduit of global evil Mr Blair (with the approval of Mr Murdoch and buddies) instead still has the sheer audacity to try to spin it all around and blame everyone else for his own sickening behaviour and crimes against the world and this country. And again this should serve as an another reminder of why Blair is either so corrupted personally by forces acting on him, or who's own judgement is so monstrously flawed and distorted that he is basically incapable of making a judgement at all.

Therefore the only other thing that 'saps the country's confidence and self-belief... and...reduces our capacity to take the right decisions' is the attrocious fact that Blair and his cabinet, and large swathes of his party and financial supporters and supporters in the media have been permitted to carry on as long as they have by everyone else, when they should have been forcibly removed if neccessary long ago.
