" Those Who Live In Glasshouses, Shouldn't Throw Stones "

...............................................................................................

 

Are you like me these days

as the press seeks to portray

Americans and British soldiers as beasts

I am sick and tired of their charades and devices

their devious tactics to divide and inflame

focussing on one single issue

confined to one small group

so they can paint us all as savages

when the vast majority of us

respect the rule of law

they conveniently forget

our armed forces on a day to day basis

are facing an implacable Satanic brigade

who murder, rape, pillage, and behead for fun

who abide by neither the Geneva Convention

or any other statute known to man

the media conveniently forget

our cowardly enemy

blow up our boys and girls with impunity

and then dance on their corpses

and drag their dead bodies through the streets

to mutilate them even further

their lackey human rights lawyers

remained silent when the tyrant was in power

quick they are to point the accusing finger

and ignore the grievous sins of those they purport to defend

a race that labels all outsiders as unbelievers and kaffirs

who would liquidate us if given a chance

just because we don't worship their prophet

whose law allows stoning of women to death

and turns a blind eye to forced marriages

where young girls are forcibly circumcised

and inter breeding is the name of the game

well listen brother I'm making a stand

I'll defend our Union Jack and Stars and Stripes

and too hell with your pious criticism

for God's sake we're fighting the Legions of Hell

so here's to the boys and girls

who bravely defend our land

this writer stands four square with you

Sometimes we have to draw the line of other cultures' practices and I draw the line on Africa's female circumcision. I have posted in my den Maraca on this subject. As I see fit, the machete as a viable tool in castration to anyone who beheads any body part, murders, rapes, and pillages. For all the vile, there is equally the good. We just have to look harder for it, because media focuses on the bad and ugly. Have a beautiful day, Peter.

Clever artwork... made up of the living and the dead, I take it. I admire anyone who has the guts to make a stand for what they vehemently believe to be the Truth. And you have certainly done so here. I am not temperamentally someone who can express or feel things in quite such black and white. Guess some might therefore term me yellow... LOL Kate xx

Bravo!!! I'll stand next to you! I'm so sick of the ultra liberal cry babies that want this country to go socialist so badly that they will support our enemy to help defeat us! Too much complacency here! God Bless you Peter!

Love,

Give me Liberty or give me death. Patriots will stand the test of time. Hurray for the Union Jack and the Stars and Stripes that will last forever if we stand united. Well said brave brother Peter.

Absolutely! And I am there with you Peter!
The press makes me sick to death of their one-sided, blind-sided bull, to make us not only look bad but stir the stink for those that are putting their lives on the line so they can write and spout their crap without fear of fall out.
You've got me stirred up for sure...and I think this should be read by every reporter and news agency in the business!

You go Peter Paton!

Peter,

Thank you for being a patriot; I am one, too, and support our friends who have stuck with us through good times and bad. Especially bad, such a Britins have. As an American, I thank you.

An excellent, thought provoking write--very well done.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
