Anniversary Time Kite Flying.

category international | rights, freedoms and repression | other press author Saturday September 10, 2005 14:44author by benjamin franklin Report this post to the editors

Check your calendar. Tomorrow is a big day.
Its marks the date that modern history began.
Michael Moore got his oscar, Iraqis got their freedom, and Haliburton made over a billion because of that day.
And just in time, "the ones you keep your eye on" next door in Engurland have flown the big kite.

Eliza Manningham-Buller is a woman who is not familiar to most of you, and if at all, only familiar to the "4 green fields" lobby.

For the purpose of this article, I'm not talking about the historic problem of Ireland & Britian. I'm talking about "Rights". Those "rights" which some of us feel will get you - "ordinary Irish" and "ordinary Britons" through any apocalypse, even if you had the bad luck not to notice you lived right on top of the dragons' lair or the good longterm sense to move to another land.

here's her wiki biog:-

She's the woman in charge of the people who will bring DNA into the Dragon's Lair.

Here's the kite:-

The answer is a simple No!

The "magna carta" of rights established in the 14th century feudal baronial england evolved into the legal system you enjoy now. They were only slightly effected by Liberalism in the form of the French revolution. No adjustment of these rights is justifiable under any of the present longterm circumstances which face the people of the UK and by effect Ireland. This is not the first time "this kite has been flown". The Blair regime have talked and talked about new laws, new restrictions, and they will go on.
As much as you can not allow them to erode one more civil right. This is important.

lovely sites. Unless you have constant wind conditions you will not be able to fly person on a kite, it is not advisable either, it was indeed an ancient chinese way of killing looters. But you can put a fun antenna on your kite, and also a camera! Play with your webcam and a lot of cable and do satelite photos of your area.
