9/11 is coming!

I am scared. I hear you ask: "Why"? Well....I tell you. There was (or is) a big demonstration planned in Brussels on the 11th of September against the Islamisation of Europe.
The major of Brussels has forbidden this demonstration, for the fear of insulting certain members of the Belgian population (read: muslims). He fears that there will be riots between the demonstrants and muslims (Islam was peace, right?). There is an online petition to protest against this decision of the major.
This is already scary to hear that people are not allowed to demonstrate, just to please a small minority of the population. We have in Europe something that is called freedom of speech, which is insulted by this decision.
The organisation therfore declared that therefore it will take place anyway, but then it will be more of a remembrance of the victims of the WTC-attacks.

And now I just read, that the AEL (Arab European League) is now planning a demonstration on (yes, you guessed it right) the 11th of September in Brussels against Islamophobia and racism.
For those who don't know the AEL, this is a very scary muslim organization, who's goal it is to convert everyone in Europe to muslim, either the easy way or the hard way.
Now, the major of Brussels has a problem. If he forbids this demonstration too, then the whole muslim world will be shouting that this is racism, bla bla bla..... If he doesn't forbid this, then it will be war. Why forbid one demonstration, and allow the other?

Meanwhile, it is so clearly a provocation of the AEL towards the western world. Why isn't this organization not on the European black list? It sure as hell is on the one from USA.

Anyway, I don't know what scares me most: The major allowing the demonstration of the AEL, or a confrontation between the 2 groups?
Either way, I fear that the WTC won't be the only thing we will remember on 9/11 in the future.

Privacy? What is that?

Bush had recently a small success by passing a law, that allows the CIA and other "Big Brother"-organisations to listen in on phone calls made outside USA (as long as they go through a US-based network). All in the name of his war on terrorism. Well, congratulations, mr. Bush!
I am sooo happy for you.

I don't know how things are in other countries, but here in Holland immediately everyone was against this law, being afraid of their privacy. PRIVACY???
HELLLLLOOOOOOO!!! THIS IS YOUR WAKE UP CALL!!! THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS PRIVACY ANYMORE.

We gave up our privacy the moment internet became popular. Sure, you can respond anonymous to an article in the newspaper. But, ask any wizz kid, they are able to track you down in the blink of an eye. I only have to type "Osama Bin Laden", and this blog goes straight to the CIA for evaluation, where some nittwit will judge that this blog is not dangerous (well, probably he will classify it as dangerous now, since I called him/her a nittwit). And if I really wanna live dangerous and wanna have a squad-car in front of my house, I only need to write that "Saddam Hussain was my hero" (just for argument's sake).
There is not a piece of info on the net that can't be found. Just type in your own name in any search engine.

I read somewhere that in USA (where else?) there are companies that will search the entire internet for traces and remove them (if negative). (reputationdefender.com/, Defendmyname.com)
When you apply for a job, your future employer could turn you down, because you have written 3 years ago in some kind of forum, of which you don't even remember having registered for anymore, that you have smoked some weed in your childhood.

People here are making such a fuzz about the loss of their privacy. First of all, like I mentioned above, there is no such thing as privacy anymore. Second, those who are screaming the loudest against it, are also the ones with the most skeletons in their closet. Third, do you really think that the CIA is interested in a goofball like me? If they ever gonna dig in my past (which they will, after my comment about Saddam Hussain :) ), the worst thing they will find are some speeding tickets. Well, in Holland that is a more serious offence than murder, so maybe the next blog I will be writing from jail.
But seriously, do people really think that the CIA or NSA or whatever is going to listen in on your conversation with your mother-in-law about how to bake a carrot cake? Or when you are whining to your best friend that your boyfriend isn't able to raise the flag anymore? Would the CIA really be listening when you are having phone-sex with your mistress? Come on, get real! The CIA has better things to do, like.............like,..........Somebody? Help me please?

So, let George W. Bush enjoy his one and only success in a long time. He needed it!
