The Independent: Britain gives approval to torture, claims Amnesty

The Independent: Britain gives approval to torture, claims Amnesty
Blair… told MPs: “We do not agree with the use of torture.” Pressed over whether that was an absolute rule, Mr Blair added: “I mean absolute in this sense, that you say ‘Look, it is simply the civil liberties of the suspect, or simply the liberties of freedom from terrorism’. You have to balance those two things.”

I fucking hate the way he say ‘look’ and the way you know what he really wants to say he ‘look - you dumb fuck i’m much cleverer then you, i’m TONY FUCKING BLAIR’ you know?

As for that quote. I fail to see how my freedom can be maintained at the expense of the torture of someone. I can’t decide whether to just ignore it or to get really angry.

    Basically, all my links are going > here now, just because there’s an context menu extension that makes it nice ‘n easy. When i say links i mean, anything and mostly everything. Though, i’m not wholly bothered for the tagging malarky to be honest. More for the sake of here’s what i found interesting. Though i know it’s a pain, well not if you use the feeds but still. For the sake of convinience like, just subscribe to the feed already! Though, if you want that and my photos and this subscribe to my Suprglu feed. Check that shit out right there. So that will make this, for more measured things, hopefully. One day maybe :/

    The consequences of love.

    with one comment

    The film was just strange. The ending was, i don’t know, we all sat and went, pardon. I thought i was bored, that the pace was too sedentry but in the end i don’t think it was. Some of the shots were amazing though and she was beautiful.

    The Sigur Rós gig is sold-out. And i have my hotel room booked. It’s all good! :)
