In The Know Syria has fired into Turkish territory - refugees are not safe even when they have fled the Country !

Appeasing tyrants never works, JK - it shows weakness and emboldens the tyrant ... we should have had him executed months ago.
JK2006 And read in today's Times Law Report details of the failed appeal attempt by Mohammed Gul.

It involves the definition of terrorism.

Gul complained that videos of attacks on the coalition forces in Iraq and Afghanistan were not terrorism; that the international forces were invasion forces and protest against them was therefore not terrorism.

The Judge said they were and gave Gul 5 years.

The judge involved, incidentally, was David Paget; the judge in my case.
JK2006 Any regime worth its salt claims "legitimacy" (we "elected" the coalition).
Our regime doesn't KILL people (too unsubtle - lock them up and let them die without the meejah noticing or caring).
Believe me, if "outside forces" (after our oil?) wanted to crush our democratic regime, the meejah would find a way of blackening its reputation (pictures of starving kids and abused women) and turning our "rebels" (rioters) into heros and champions fighting for freedom (like those nice Libyans and those sweet Iranians expelling the Shah).

You're assuming the tabloids tell the truth ITK.

Ah, yes, ITK; my point is - many of the regimes mentioned would describe the "rebels" as we choose to describe the rioters.

Ah, but, those regimes have no legitimacy in their claims do they?
Any regime forced to kill it own people surely know its on a path to extinction.

And where would we be if our "rioters" claimed genuine grievances (such as locking up people falsely accused and convicted by the bent judicial system)?

Although the system is not perfect - far from it - ALL people who have a genuine (and proveable!) grievance have a form of redress.
