The Cluster 'You-Know-What' in Iraq in Conversations, Part One: My Reply to British Foreign Secretary William Hague's Announcement over Facebook to Reopen the British Embassy in Tehran

Topic: The Cluster 'You-Know-What' in Iraq in Conversations, Part One

To my fellow readers, once again, life got in the way and I was unable to dedicate as much or hardly any time I wanted to with regards to the two latest Obama cluster-"you-know-what's" over the current deluge of illegal immigrants pouring over our borders to the point where so far as I have read, there are no known or concrete figures having been provided in my subscribed news feeds globally, and do know that I have nearly two dozen from all over the world I have saved over my Bookmarks or that I receive in my Facebook feed.

This will be the first of two conversations in the form of replies to two very different forums. The one you are about read in my reply is to British Foreign Secretary William Hague of the Conservative Party (aka. "Tory, or Tories"). The Right Honourable William Hague serves in the same capacity as our De Gaulle-esque looking Secretary of State John Kerry, but in terms of doing a credible job, Hague is far more competent even in this very poor choice since Sec. Kerry seems more concerned about being Al Gore's unspoken representative on the issue of climate change, which apparently has had its title altered likely for more absurd politically-correct purposes. As data indicates that not only is there not enough evidence to warrant a major series of global regulations on climate control akin to the Kyoto Treaty to which President George W. Bush severed our ties, but Kerry has engaged in stating that climate change is responsible for the violence in the Middle East and our crime rate. As a stereotype rarely ignored in practice by socialists, he did read at least one book that did not entail he recite poetry at a Summit regarding the Russian occupation of the Crimean Peninsula and threat to invade Ukraine proper. But for now, I will segue into my immediate topic, having nothing to do directly with climate change because frankly, no human being is the X-Men mutant known as Storm, nor do most women who read this look as gorgeous as the actress portraying the character, Halle Berry.


I will do little in explain the crux of this conversation since you each will easily locate what the topic of the actual post by Hague at the topic of his Facebook update. For now, do enjoy my very objective perspective as a person with academic backgrounds in both History and Political Science, from which as usual I lent nearly all my positions in convincing some while piquing the interests particularly of the Tories who replied. If a Labour Party or Liberal Democrat chose to make stirring accusations to be brainwashed by the media into acquiring my own framework of thought or, like most socialists revel in the endeavor, telling me how I am an "idiot," I dealt with them accordingly, but as usual, not by cursing them out, but through witty, whimsical comment making them look like the "moron(s)" they claimed me to be.

I have decided the circumstances are right to reopen our embassy in Tehran. There are a range of practical issues that we will need to resolve first. However, it is our intention to reopen the embassy in Tehran with a small initial presence 
as soon as these practical arrangements have been made. I expect the Iranian Government will similarly choose to take steps to reopen its embassy in London. Read my written statement to Parliament.

  • Jonathan Henderson As an American who is a Reaganite and in my utmost love and respect for the Iron Lady, a Thatcherite, I vehemently oppose any further talks or general relations with Iran for the fact they not only are still funding terrorists, but now have embarked upon its ambitions for a nuclear future and will be the major military presence in a potential invasion of Iraq amid the ISIS being poised to topple the still fledgling government. We current have an Iranian-born Christian pastor in captivity being tortured regularly simply for being an American and infidel. 

    As I suspect President Obama is intent upon creating a new caliphate, or a pan-Islamic superstate, I fear for the future. I am very disappointed in the Cameron Government for implementing such a poorly-conceived and still worse idea to appease the Tehran government and the nation's president, Hassan Rouhani.

In Iraq it was understood that we didn't have enough resources to control both sides so we staged terrorist attacks to get the Sunni and Shia to fight themselves. There is no point being too high minded about Iran because they are not ideal allies in every way.

    • Jonathan Henderson Willie-So-Silly and Martin "Bashir-Moe" Howard, it is rather nice to read how well-adjusted you are in reading the English language. Of course, if you find yourself having to tell others you are intelligent by way of condescendingly declaring him or her to be "a total idiot," well, you forgot an old cliche: you are the pot calling the kettle black. And since I am apparently a black kettle, I must be on par with you since your are the same color as myself as well as in material. I am also sure that you are like Jared and eat at your local Subway restaurant, dining upon the mandatory halal on the menu.

      I suspect that as you are both expert linguists and in Willie's case, I am not to be taken seriously based upon my contention that there perhaps is a shift by President Obama to unite the Arab World while he is intent upon destroying Israel either through Sec. of State John Kerry or by funding Hamas and the Palestinian Authority; or for the latter to simply state that I even watch any news on television since at best I would be borne witness to political hyperbole and forced to choose the means for which I would rather view or listen, keeping in mind that The Blaze is a very popular right-wing news source, but is being blocked by cable and satellite carriers who are known donors to liberal organizations and the Democratic Party; that we currently are witnessing the House of Representatives investigating the IRS for targeting conservative, libertarian and religious tax exempt organizations, not to mention Benghazi and now the swap for a derelict U.S. Army sergeant whose father has trails via Twitter connecting him to Islamic organizations which support the Taliban; and just today it was announced rather conveniently that the mastermind behind the Benghazi attacks Abu Khattallah was arrested with no resistance; and that the leader of the ISIS faction about to topple the Iraqi government, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, had been released by the Obama administration in 2009 when Obama was sworn in that February, who then stated to Col. King upon escorting him out of his confinement: "I'll see you in New York." 

      Willie, I am sure you were here at my house when I "typed" that President Obama is intent upon creating a new caliphate, and that through typography, you were able to depict this within your mind as you were sipping your tea a shit-eating grin and a hearty chuckle. I also am sure that you know that the president is funding Hamas and al-Qaeda fighters in Syria, including ISIS in Syria, has supported and has ties to the Muslim Brotherhood and has had generals and figures of authority within the Pentagon state that the president has key figures from within the party working within his administration, one of which is Huma Abedin, the wife of the sexting fiend Anthony Weiner. Obama is supporting the Taliban and as you may have read in your newspapers, just negotiated a swap for one Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, a deserter, in exchange for five Taliban authority figures who were taken captive during combat over the past 12 years using Qatar's government as the mediator and halfway house for incarcerating the Taliban figures for one year; instead, the five terrorists were treated to heroes' welcomes. Obama is leading the way for Iran to go nuclear, but I am sure that since I am a total idiot and the Labour Party and Liberal Democrats are still as much of an anti-nuclear deterrent pair of political parties within the British government as they were during the Thatcher ministry, you might actually display some concern over that nation's military buildup (there have been Iranian warships sailing in our maritime waters) inclusive of nuclear weapons. Also, it has come to light that the president had funded and armed the al-Qaeda linked cell which attacked Benghazi, killing four of our people within the Embassy, including Amb. Chris Stevens. Today, we are facing Obama's willful breach of federal law of not enforcing at all our border with Mexico, and to date, untold thousands have crossed over with no resistance by the Border Patrol since they are hopeless outnumbered; there are also camps set up for refugee children from Mexico to be housed by the president's order, also illegal, and akin to what he did with the swap as well as dozens of other decisions of late, he is completely bypassing Congress on many of his initiatives using executive orders - or what he call his having a phone and pen in his hands. 

      Martin, I will let you know that between including the BBC, The Guardian and The Daily Mail within my regimen of global media outlets I check frequently alongside our Fox News, The Washington Post, The New York Times, The Associated Press, CNN and USA Today; the Japanese services The Japan Times and The Kyodo News; France's Agence France Presse; Xinhua, The South China Morning Post and China Daily USA from ours and the world's creditor in Beijing; RT in Russia; The Financial Times; The Times of Israel; Al Jazeera; Asia Times Online; South Atlantic Media Services; The Korea Herald; Iran's Fars News Agency, and the list is even longer, but since I am sure you never believe anything from within the BBC nor The Guardian which supports socialism in Britain. 

      And since you do not seem to believe that there is a very strong possibility the Obama administration is funding the ISIS as is known that he has done within the Syrian theatre of the Arab Spring, watch this video and allow yourself to avoid listening to the Arabic tongue spoken and reading the English subtexts, left to right.

    • Jonathan Henderson You are correct Stuart, and we have been engaged in that method of proxy warfare for more than 30 years. We first funded Saddam Hussein during the Iran-Iraq War (1980-88) not because we were allies with Baghdad, but with our diplomatic ties with the Islamic Republic of Iran being severed in 1979 and due to our opposition to the Ayatollah Khomeini post the Iran Hostage Crisis, the enemy of our enemy was our friend. This has been a commonplace policy with every major world power for centuries; for example, France provided the necessary naval strength to aid George Washington at the siege of Yorktown, Virginia in 1781, which forced the surrender of Lord Cornwallis and ended armed conflict during the American Revolution two years later with the Treaty of Paris; ironically, it was this alliance that inspired as catalyst for the Parisian sans culottes to storm the Bastille on July 14, 1789, beginning the French Revolution's and leading to our first political party system with Jefferson supporting France until the Reign of Terror commenced versus his greatest political rival, Alexander Hamilton, who was pro-British, in 1793. President Franklin D. Roosevelt (FDR) turned his attention to Europe following his New Deal initiatives collapsing an already depressed economy stateside, and in this switch in policy direction, funded the British, French and Soviet forces through our Lend-Lease Act. The Soviet Union indeed won their Great Patriotic War of the Eastern Theatre at the cost of between 20 and 30 million military lives and untold numbers of Soviet citizens, only upon liberating each state in Eastern Europe (except for Tito's Yugoslavia) to install friendly governments operated under communism, and ergo, the initiation of the Cold War. Beginning with the Carter administration in 1979, the U.S. funded the Osama bin Laden-run Mujahideen in repelling the Soviet invaders of Afghanistan, and three years after the Red Army retreated (February 1989), the virtually-anarchical Afghan state fell to the Taliban due to our failure to rebuild the state infrastructure as we did under the Marshall Plan in Europe. 

      In rehashing your correct observation regarding the U.S. and British funding sectarian wars, we have done so for years with the Kurds near the ethnic borders comprising of Kurdistan in what today is northern Iraq and the southernmost portion of Turkey. Not only did Saddam Hussein gas and kill thousands of ethnic Kurds during his dictatorship, but the Turks also repressed them. The fact that why we have been funding the Ukrainian resistance for the past year can be attested to what you will read here regarding our vice president Joe Biden's son, Hunter, serving on the executive board of the largest oil corporation in Ukraine called Burisma Holdings.

    • Ken Flagg It seems you endorse duplicity Jonathan evident to those in know in your predilection for Reagan who presided over drugging America to illegally fund the Contras and illegally negotiated with Iran to delay the release of hostages to throw an election. We are living in a tangled web spun by these sorts people who have grown in power. Until we have governments who out right condemn and punish such crimes they will grow in atrocity.

    • Jonathan Henderson I do not endorse any sort of behavior. When I said what I did, Mr. Flagg, I referred to past trends geopolitically; it was purely an objective observation and analysis from my perspective as a person with degrees in History and Political Science. 

      Afghanistan was not the lone source of historical blunder that did not become readily apparent for nearly 20 years following the Oliver North brokerage of the arms-for-hostages deals which Reagan took full responsibility for his administration's involvement, whether or not he himself signed the order(s) to engage in these transactions with the Ayatollah's government. With regards to Britain, I understand through reading that Prime Minister Thatcher had a business relationship with Augusto Pinochet of Chile for his role in aiding the Royal Navy in taking down the Argentine military during the Falklands conflict. The coup de gras regarding this was her advocating during the late 1990s for Spain to release him from his incarcerated state and to have him extradited to London, where your Home Secretary Jack Straw housed him and did not force Pinochet to stand trial, citing the reason being on medical grounds. 

      I try as a historian to read into historical issues with two thoughts in place. The first is to of course compare the standards of the past to those of today followed by the attempt to analyze the changing trends in mood, culture, what the catalysts behind the movement for change were, and finally why it affected who (all) initiated these major changes in the social and cultural dynamics which then alter governments' roles in how it implements polity while being mindful that in this endeavor, how the spirit of the laws will impact the general will who granted the state its role as the sovereign - a very Rousseauan philosophy espoused in his landmark 1762 treatise "The Social Contract." By comparing what once was to the present standards, researching followed by answering why addresses the second step as the integral ingredient of the former. 

      In the end, do keep in mind that in terms of reading what did happen as it was recorded via as little as a simple consensus among our historians and archivists, history will always be read through a perfect 20/20 lense. Then again afterwards, you find that scholars will diverge in how these events are interpreted. Objectivists in the mold of Ayn Rand are like myself, more prone to read verbatim as we would the legal codes the events as they occurred and then track a chain reaction akin to what I like to refer to a the pebble effect, where a person might skip a pebble across a pond and as it bounces atop of the water to the opposite end, taking pains to carefully observe, to note how one ripple engages in a chain reaction representative to those of the same throughout time. A revisionist will simply adjust details through alterations in language or dissociative of a clear account of what actually occurred due to a great deal of interpretation and conjecture stifling the capacity just to differentiate empirical data from what is tantamount to psychoanalysis. Revisionism is the subject of change in harmony with the definition of the broad philosophy of empiricism; epistemology deals strictly with what a historian is taught by way of propositional knowledge's acquisition via recorded experiences.

Regarding Mrs Thatcher, I am aware our whole political system and media here in the UK is also fully geared to deceiving the public about their motives. Unlike you I do not feel I can take a dispassionate clinical view of this Having read the memoirs of quite a few former CIA officers, some from very high ranks,I feel we have to expose the rank hypocrisy to which we are subjected which is why I come to places like this to post articles fromwww.globalresearch.ca

    • Jonathan Henderson Oh, no problem, Mr. Flagg. I do admit to being a regular voter for Republican Party candidates here, but when someone asks me what my political ideology is, I state that I am a conservative-libertarian. You know at least through your Tories what your brand of conservatism is as it appears more consistent perhaps with Edmund Burke, but ours tend to lean almost in perfect harmony with John Locke's classical liberalism principles within his Second Treatise of Civil Government (1689) which influenced the authoring of your Bill of Rights which transferred the role of lawmaking from the monarchy to Parliament in closing the Glorious Revolution, the forced abdication of the last Stuart monarch (James II) and the coronation of William and Mary of Orange. He also inspired many of Thomas Jefferson's more Americanized concepts within such landmark documents as the Declaration of Independence (July 4, 1776; our Independence Day) or his insistence before rendering support for the Constitution that there be a bill of rights, his authoring the Statute for Religious Freedom for the State of Virginia (1782?) which disestablished the Church of England in Virginia and granted all faiths their right to worship as they so chose, and the very controversial concept behind what we call nullification within his Kentucky Resolutions (1798) which were in response to his assertion that President John Adams' signing the Alien and Sedition Acts (1798, in response to stifle public demonstrations or seditious speech against the federal government during the Quasi War with France) to repress anti-government speech or writing in newspapers and pamphlets and since this was true, the states had the right to nullify laws that were unconstitutional or could secede from the union. (In other words, Jefferson's idea behind nullification led to the heated debates over the slavery controversy and ultimately, civil war. 

      To give you an idea, for example, I believe that paraphrased, Locke stated that the social compact a people enter into with a government is solely for the it to protect their rights to "life, liberty... and property." Jefferson, however, wrote within the body of the Declaration the following:

      "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator certain unalienable rights, that among these are the rights to Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

Another opinion I would like to tender is that to post views along the lines of Steven and Dee if you live in the US is inviting a swat team of multifarious federal agencies to batter your door down, charge in with dogs and guns and drag you away on trumped up charges so if I was Mr Henderson I would present myself as he does. Not to say that is that he may not be perfectly honest in what he says. I would like to see this discussion carried on in a more prominent area of this site if we can do that. The chances of people happening on it here are somewhat slim I think. Just posting comments on original post might do it rather than replying to comments on posts.

    • Jonathan Henderson Dee, I know you are correct about intelligence, because we are experiencing the Obama administration here stonewalling Congress constantly in ascertaining evidence to investigate the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). In fact, if you have read any media reports at all about the IRS hearings, their representative at its congressional hearing informed our committee chairman, Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA), that they had "lost" more than two years worth of former IRS director Lois Lerner's logged E-mails which contained vital information about what had occurred during that time when the majority of the most egregious abuses of Obama's opposition within the conservative, libertarian and religious non-profit ranks occurred; and as I am speaking to you about this, there are still reports of more organizations being audited, their tax-exempt statuses being revoked due to alleged violations or dangers to the democratic processes. We also have the Benghazi investigation too, where the head of that committee, the popular up and coming GOP Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) has received death threats from pro-Obama figures and organizations if he continues digging for facts regarding why we were funding Benghazi militants and why just two days ago the mastermind of that cell who engaged in that attack was just apprehended suddenly during the hearings out of the blue when this could have happened in theory at any prior moment to avoid detracting attention from the actual investigation into why as Obama and Hillary Clinton were listening to reports of this occurring at the exact time it transpired that there was no order for reinforcements made; furthermore, why did Obama as well as Sec. Clinton and their staff(s) start sending E-mails to create talking points about the affair prior to the actual attack at the Libyan Embassy?

      We also are experiencing tens of thousands of illegal immigrants flooding across our borders that were order to be almost completely unmanned by Obama. There are figures who upon being arrested in Texas were found to be gang members, members of deadly drug cartels, and even Syrian civilians and other suspicious Middle Eastern peoples of origin who are being observed, detained and interrogated. Texas Gov. Rick Perry (R-TX) has order a crackdown at the border by state law enforcement since Obama has refused to send reinforcement to enforce federal laws at the border along the Rio Grande. With thousands of refugee children, also from across the border, being trucked to in some cases, schools that are out for summer, the president did not wait to send the proposed bill to Congress to have it debated and voted upon because he knew it would be trashed in the House and never make it to his Democrat-controlled Senate. He has already made it known that he does not respect congressional authority and that he will simply sign bills into law and not enforce them, or just issue an indefinite number of executive orders if he cannot get what he wants out of Congress. In other words, we have become a police state governed by a tyrannical dictator.

    • Jonathan Henderson (This is a reply I wrote to a retired attorney and History professor named Tara Ross. There are a few minor revisions in the form of additions to this version, but it will give you an abstract to consider since I am attempting to restore the draft to this with cited sources which were started in the weeks leading to the Russian invasion of the Crimean Peninsula.)

      Tara, this is no coincidence, and I do not mean why Sgt. Bergdahl sought asylum with the Taliban. President Obama has a pro-Islamic agenda, and we know his policies are so heavily in favor of the Arab League and Iran that it is rumored that he is still reportedly considering ordering a covert operation to throw a coup d'etat of the Netanyahu government in Israel. Considering the president is arming Islamic fundamentalists which are subsidiaries of, and directly to, al Qaeda in the Syrian theatre of the Arab Spring that have slaughtered entire villages of Christians which the mainstream media chose to ignore, that the president chose to throw his support behind the Erdogan government in Turkey despite mass rioting in such cities as the capital of Ankara and the largest city of Istanbul (Constantinople), has opted to bail out of Iraq not because too many of our troops were still dying - when President Bush left the White House, those figures were at their lowest points - but because the potential for a reprisal of anarchical chaos would serve to initiate a serious state of unrest in Iran - which was amid a regime change where Hassan Rouhani now holds Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's position as president would lend itself to a potential invasion of the newly-formed Iraqi national government just learning to embrace democracy; and all the while in Syria, President Rouhani has engaged in funding the training and provisions of arms and manpower to multiple factions within the conflict that are killing Christians are intent upon forcing the abdication of the Assad government in Damascus in order to implement another Islamic republic government under Sharia.

    • Jonathan Henderson (Cont'd)

      Why did Barack Obama so vehemently oppose the second regime change just a year after the toppling of the Mubarak dictatorship in Egypt but not the first? Because of his close association with the Muslim Brotherhood, in which there are rumors of several key officials within that party are now employed by the Obama White House (some claim the wife of Anthony Weiner, Huma Abedin, is one official within the party), and that the president is funding so heavily the Syrian rebels who as mentioned are subsidiaries of al Qaeda because as part of the recent revolution in Syria, the Muslim Brotherhood figures in Damascus were swept out of government. When you consider that each of these entities are linked to the Taliban - recall that since the 1980s, al Qaeda has operated most of its initiatives within the Afghan state under the Taliban - then there is indeed an agenda; what you are watching here including with the unraveling of the Benghazi scandal's details is in fact no coincidence. Boko Haram has been linked to al Qaeda; and while the president paid lip service to "bringing back our girls" with hashtags and his usual bellicose rhetoric, he has ordered no publicly-acknowledged military operation or presence, no known intervention nor have we read of a covert initiative to take down the organization via proxy warfare. And if the leftist media have not acknowledged this as so, why would the vast majority of them choose to ignore an Obama presidential military directive when it its primary agenda in the cases of MSNBC and CNN is to glorify him? The Nigerian government in Lagos has launched a full-scale assault on Boko Haram and has pledged to fight an eternal war on terror. They are taking action. Obama, though, is choosing to sit on his hands for all the above reasons.

      President Obama calls his foreign policy methods publicly "calculus." To me, they are highly selective foreign policy initiatives that on the surface do not appear to exemplify any links to one another except for his very obvious shift favoring the Islamic states of the Near East. The fact that we still have essences of the Arab Spring transpiring in both Syria and in my opinion, Turkey, predicates what I fear is about to ensue: with each state having transferred via revolution from a virtual secular dictatorship in all by name only to one where the citizens who toppled the old regimes created an Islamic republic of theocratic absolutist rulers which were nearly all funded in some capacity by the Obama State Department during the Clinton years, I believe that the eventual formation of the first caliphate in an official capacity since the Ottoman Empire collapsed in 1924 is to occur at some point, and not a matter of "if." Considering the Ottoman Turks were responsible for the world's first acknowledged genocide of between 1 and 2 million Armenian Orthodox Christians guilty of apostasy against the Sharia rule of law, this is a dangerous possibility. The president not only has done nothing to object to these patterns continuing to occur as if its own version of the Cold War-era Domino Theory, he has encouraged it. We are not only in danger as are our NATO allies since these nations are closely tied to Moscow and Beijing, but Israel stands to be wiped out by a caliphate or any combination of one or more alliances as the actual Arab League at present is populated by approximately 400 million Muslims. This all ties to oil, not merely within the Middle East and Russia's ties to the Iranian national oil company, but with the disputed Russian/Ukrainian pipelines that extend into Eastern Europe which Vice President Joe Biden's son Hunter Biden, director of the Burisma Oil Holdings, into northern Turkey, through the former Soviet republics of Uzbekistan and into Siberia, before finally reaching northern China, which just signed a trade pact with Russia in a protectionist endeavor to control those oil pipelines with its nationalized oil company Chinese National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) and the Russian firm Gazprom. China is already on the brink of war with Japan over the disputed Senkaku/Diaoyu islands, which on the surface appears to be just a fishing settlement in the East China Sea, but what others do not know is how it is a hub for oil. China continues to expand its maritime boundaries and invading islands in the South China Sea, and there are now threats for military armed conflict with the Philippines and now Vietnam over oil. Let us not forget too how the Iranian oil pipeline crosses Afghanistan through Pakistan and India, and there is a great deal of jockeying in attempting to finalize a protectionist deal with one or more of those states. It might be how we determine whether India or Pakistan will be our friend or foe.

    • Jonathan Henderson The U.S. legally is obligated to defend South Korea from the North as Seoul is still at war with Pyongyang since the ceasefire is based upon an armistice; Japan as part of the Unconditional Surrender terms from World War II although Tokyo has the right today to vote in parliament to fully militarize; and in 1979 under the Carter administration, Congress passed a law called the Taiwan Relations Act, which recognized the People's Republic of China as the one true China and welcomed Beijing into the UN, but also pledged our role to protect Taipei's interests in the case of foreign aggression. This shift in Pacific foreign and military objectives comes on the heels of these conflicts, while Russia and China are now each shifting their sights for trade and, ultimately, military influence to Latin America, which is why they are so fervidly supporting the Maduro regime's efforts to remain in power in Venezuela while some suggest that the U.S. has been funding the rebel alliance to topple the regime in Caracas. Venezuela is an OPEC state; Russia and China would stand to gain substantially with a foothold in our sphere of influence within the Western Hemisphere, which we too are obliged to protect under both the Monroe Doctrine and the Roosevelt Corollary. Let us not forget in Europe, too, our NATO obligations and the Budapest Memorandum of 1994 signed by President Clinton, British Prime Minister John Major, Russia's Boris Yeltsin and the president of Ukraine which legally binds the U.S. and Britain to defend Ukraine in the event of an invasion by Russia.

      There too is the issue regarding the instability in Thailand as it now is governed by a military junta following the recent deposition of its parliament and prime minister. As the government in Bangkok is part of the Golden Triangle alongside Myanmar (Burma) and Laos, the epicenter is the Myanmar Oil and Gas Enterprise, "the main channel for laundering the revenues of heroin produced and exported under the control of the Myanmar army." According to a confidential MOGE file reviewed by the investigators, funds exceeding $60 million and originating from Myanmar's most renowned drug lord, Khun Sa, were channeled through the company. "Drug money is irrigating every economic activity in Myanmar, and big foreign partners are also seen by the SLORC as big shields for money laundering." Banks in Rangoon offered money laundering for a 40% commission. The information about the Golden Triangle may be procured in its Wikipedia article.http://en.wikipedia.org/.../Golden_Triangle_(Southeast_Asia)

British politicians are no friend of the British people. I would sooner trust the Iranian people than any despot politician from the three main political parties. Go UKIP!

We need new thinking in Government and we need to get rid of all the toffs that haven't a clue about reality. By the way Mr, Hague you and your friends will all need to get jobs after the next election.

  • Peter Khoury Although I appreciate that talking between nations is a far better avenue for peace then war, I am very sceptical to the timing. This will be seen for what it is; a hypocritical and cynical move by the UK government pandering to the US. I'm in favour and supportive of the achievements of this government over the past 4 years but this decision is distasteful and with it goes the moral high ground that this government seeks to maintain.

  • Billy Orafferrty In the main these comments can be classified as ill informed Tosh. William Hague is a professional politician who long ago realised that scruples morals and ethics have little to do with the world of real politique which we all inhabit whether we like it or not. Persia is an ancient seat of learning and civilization whom after the last election has demonstrated a more liberal manner of governance in particular in its attitude to womens rights with the president having the temerity and confidence to stand firm in the face of opposition from The ayatollah designated supreme and all powerful leader. This warrants acknowledgment and if Britain sees fit to reopen its Embassy in Tehran this has to be a step in the right direction!

    What we are witnessing in Iraq and Syria today is indeed largely theater, designed and performed by psychopaths for the purpose of terrifying the masses of humanity into accepting the rule of the same psychopaths. While the action plays out in real life in cities and towns, and with real people suffering and dying, the underlying philosophy is similar to ....http://www.sott.net/.../280559-Psycho-Reality-Creators...
