Cooper: Don’t bother looking for root causes of terrorism
I do not agree with Cooper's nonsense position!
Terrorists operate in groups and we are further ahead now in understanding motivation, but a lot has to do with tragic impact of badly designed foreign policies such as in the case of the Irish, Quebec, Algeria, Chechnya, or Palestine.
Canada has badly designed foreign policies and should expect terrorists to be actively operating against Canada.
Terrorists always have root issues and to deal with the probability of a terrorist attack it is necessary to deal with the facts, not stupid or vacant attitudes from people like Cooper!

Victoria News - Oil tankers a low risk for coast : (NOT in my opinion)
Clap trap!
Pollution risk is pollution risk.
Next the writer will tell us that there is no insurance cost?
Do people think tankers will get smaller?
If you can have a breakup of a really large tanker, you can have a really, really, large disaster.
The risk is very real. Sunamis are very real!

LEVANT: Khadr doesn't deserve any extra PR | Column | Opinion | The London Free Press
What's wrong With PR if the justice system actually works!
Or, is there a bias that says terrorists can never be reformed?
I suppose the writer of this piece has his opinion that any publicity for terrorists is wrong?
I guess the world has changed because the terrorist population at large has grown so large Khadr would get them all stirred up to do terrorist acts!
Reporters like interviewing terrorists for the publicity this gives them!
Being smart on terror is not the same thing as being soft on terror.
Knowing that terrorists will have an influence does not forecast that what they say will be helpful or provoking.
A bad terrorist saying he has new ideas about terrorism and how he was mislead in this thinking could do more to end evil than his silence?
If you think the man has nothing but bad to say that is a one thing, but it does take a very clever analyst to predict what the potential response might be for the budding or potential terrorist, the one that might be persuaded only by his own camp and statements to the effect that terror is not the answer when dialogue gets more results.
The journalist is thus a bit of a forecaster!

Thomas Mulcair is a great leader for the NDP and Quebec responds
Perhaps, that is a very good thing! Fact is that Harper's policies really don't work well for anyone other than those engaged in making money from pollution! Sure asbestos exporting made money, but it was pollution, Mr Paradis, and Conservative policy.
Do I need to go down the list of ways the present Conservative party is damaging the global environment!
Vive Le Quebec!

Zekulin: Harper is right on terrorism, and so is Trudeau
No! Harper is definitely wrong, in my opinion! My rant ....
We might begin by saying, it's not who is right or wrong! It's who and whose answer appeals more to a male hunter killer instinctive approach and who and whose opinion appeals to women's protective sense, missing in some males, and the nurturing instinct in their subconscious response to terrorism that wants good answers in an increasingly complex social mix!
Women I think want real understandable answers more than results, but the Harper led men and women want too much the quick result. = Relax guys, we killed the bastards! Harper's reaction shows his low social intelligence relative to requirements for leadership, and short term analysis of long term economic and social issues.
He is in my humble opinion, a real failure as a leader and needs to be sidelined by better people in our Conservative party that can see the forest from the trees, the long term implications of knee jerk action on the long term dynamics of a complex evolving society.
Harper like Bush is a disaster for the globe. His wanting everything now! Now! Now! Ignore the Native peoples at the expense of the long term sociological development of Canada. Take away their rights and lands because it is opportune. That is no way to lead a thinking and feeling country which is hurting inside because of his intolerant and downright short term society less analytics! He gives Canada away to help his moneyed friends because he does not feel for the larger dynamics.
I think Harper made a major mistake of judgement based on his biases and will pay for it in elections to come in Canada!
Women are much more aware of the many alienation contributors to terror because of their own historic exclusion from the political process. Call it sociology, but it is important in political processes, and no Murdoch based media machine pulling the other way will offset that.
In the case of Muslim young men emerging in a free society, they are not thinking for themselves enough, have not experienced the 'positive' political freedom American liberalism can offer, and probably leave too much to religious dogma that captivates and exploits hidden messages / prejudices about the dominant male role in Muslim or any society.
It's only my international Canadian opinion!

YOU HAVE REACHED WOOH'S STREAM
The Internet User's Best Kept Secret
Sketches from scratches is a provocative blogspot that has grown out of the Wuh Lax experience. It is eclectic, which means that it might consider just about anything from the simple to the extremely difficult. A scratch can be something that is troubling me or a short line on paper. From a scratch comes a verbal sketch or image sketch of the issue or subject. Other sites have other stuff that should really be of interest to the broad reader. I try to develop themes, but variety often comes before depth.
