The Brits stood strong and tall during WWII. Will Cameron stand tall and use the words that 0bama has omitted from his lexicon? I say yes he will. It's time to clean and remove these bas-tards from the face of the earth.


David Haines's 'evil murder' condemned by PM

The murder of David Haines was an "act of pure evil", David Cameron has said after the release of a video purporting to show the UK hostage's beheading.
The PM vowed to do "everything in our power to hunt down" the killers of the 44-year-old aid worker, from Perth, who was kidnapped last year in Syria.
Islamic State militants have already beheaded two Americans, saying it was in response to US air strikes in Iraq.
The latest video also includes a threat to kill a second British hostage.
Mr Cameron said the murder of an innocent aid worker was "despicable and appalling".
"It is an act of pure evil. My heart goes out to the family of David Haines who have shown extraordinary courage and fortitude throughout this ordeal.
"We will do everything in our power to hunt down these murderers and ensure they face justice, however long it takes," he added.
A Downing Street spokesperson said the prime minister would chair an emergency Cobra committee meeting later.
US air strikes
The video, which was released on Saturday night, begins with a clip of Mr Cameron and then features a man who appears to be Mr Haines dressed in orange overalls, kneeling in front of a masked man holding a knife.
The victim says: "My name is Daivd Cawthorne Haines. I would like to declare that I hold you, David Cameron, entirely responsible for my execution."
He says the UK had entered into a coalition with the US against the Islamic State "just as your predecessor Tony Blair did".
"Unfortunately it is we the British public that in the end will pay the price for our parliament's selfish decisions," he said.
The militant, who appears to have a British accent, is then recorded as saying: "This British man has to the pay the price for your promise, Cameron, to arm the Peshmerga against the Islamic State."
Heavy machine guns and ammunition have been donated to authorities in Iraq by the UK government to help fight Islamic State (IS) militants, the Ministry of Defence said.
Kurdish forces, known as the Peshmerga, have been involved in heavy fighting with IS.
The militants had previously threatened to kill Mr Haines if US air strikes in Iraq were not halted.
Family appeal
Mr Haines, a father-of-two, was taken hostage in the village of Atmeh, in the Idlib province of Syria, in March 2013.
He had been helping French agency Acted deliver humanitarian aid, having previously helped local people in Libya and South Sudan.
The release of the video comes hours after his family had made a direct appeal to IS to contact them on Friday.
The family statement, which was released by the UK Foreign Office and addressed the militants directly, said: "We are the family of David Haines.
"We have sent messages to you to which we have not received a reply. We are asking those holding David to make contact with us."
IS has seized large swathes of territory in Iraq and Syria and declared a new caliphate - or Islamic state - and killed the two US hostages in recent weeks, posting video evidence on the internet.
The threat to kill Mr Haines was made during a video posted online showing the killing of US journalist Steven Sotloff earlier this month.
The extremist group also killed fellow US journalist, James Foley, last month.
BBC security correspondent Gordon Corera said the Foreign Office was attempting to verify the video.
"There is a process they undertake to authenticate these videos, the US also does the same.
"The will look to study it very carefully but it does follow this pattern we have seen recently from IS," he said.

Which world leader has the backbone and character to admit they listened to evil voices about showing more tolerance to radical Islam?

THE MULTICULTURAL DELUSION
The problem at the core of the failure is that newcomers "find it hard to identify with Britain" because "we have allowed the weakening of our collective identity." More from Cameron:
Under the doctrine of state multiculturalism, we have encouraged different cultures to live separate lives.… We have failed to provide a vision of society to which they feel they want to belong. We have even tolerated these segregated communities behaving in ways that run counter to our values.
Multiculturalism: What Happened to Responsibility?

Far too many interfaith cultural dialogue sessions have focused on the appeasement of immigrant groups while ignoring human rights abuses from their foreign countries of origin; abuses which many immigrants have accepted as the norm and often seek to protect in an effort to sustain the dignity of their group identity.
"This loathsome term [islamophobia] is nothing more than a thought-terminating cliché, conceived in the bowels of Muslim think tanks for the purpose of beating down critics." — Abdur-Rahan Muhammed, former member of the International Institute for Islamic Thought.
The real answer lies in the recognition that multiculturalism to promote equality was enshrined in the UN Declaration of Human Rights ... it has provided a sound definition of values, which Western nations need to be unapologetic in advancing.
.........
McLaughlin's words need to be examined closely as a model for the evolution of multiculturalism in Canada as well as in societies where multiculturalism is legislated. German Chancellor Angela Merkel, British PM David Cameron and former French President Nicholas Sarkozy have already declared multiculturalism a failure in recognition of the extent to which it encourages group segregation and a lack of a strong national identity.

Crack Down On Radical Preachers – I Hope So!
It was reported Saturday that David Cameron the Prime Minister is to introduce an initiative to crack down on radical Muslim preachers that are sowing the seeds of hate and radicalism among Muslims in Britain. It is a bold stroke, and way past time such a thing was introduced, but will it be effective? That remains to be seen.

It is without doubt the biggest problem facing the UK today, and I applaud David Cameron for at least trying to get on top of it. Because the government must always tread carefully and cannot act in the way we ordinary individuals would, it will be an uphill struggle, but at least he is trying, and that is one hell of a lot more than Tony Blair and his band of acolytes did. They put us in this mess in the first place, so I for one am glad that we at last have a government that is trying to address the issue of radicalism in Britain, for it is long overdue.

Will David Cameron grow a spine and stand taller than the pathetic leader of the US? It's important to have something more to say than, "Up your hole with a jelly role!" For example, knocking on the radical's family door and delivering a candygram, courtesy the land shark.


UPDATE 7:35 p.m.: British Prime Minister David Cameron tweeted that “the murder of David Haines” an “act of pure evil,” CNN reported.
“We will do everything in our power to hunt down these murderers and ensure they face justice, however long it takes,” Cameron added, according to CNN.
