James Redknapp: Good and Evil Made Crystal Clear

John W Howard, George W Bush and Tony Blair are the arbiters of ''Good'' and ''Evil'' in the new world created by them, with their powerful weaponry. They eagerly showed the world their pre-emptive strike doctrine, once regarded as having been mouthed only by the Mussolinis, Hitlers and Bin Ladens of this world.

In the new era, that the trio proudly project with their High-Tech Military Might, the definitions of “Good” and “Evil” have gradually been made clear to the “ordinary people” of the world.

Here are some areas, where crystal clear clarity has now been established.

The simple folk around the world are now awakened to the absolute truths expounded by the triumvirate, and are grateful for edification. No doubt, more truths will come out of the subjugation of peoples, dispossession of their natural wealth, and taking over of countries by multi-national companies.

Hail to the new Caesars, the new Pharaohs – you blend military might so easily with “religion”! You distribute death to all people, as only Gods can!

You play into the hands of terrorists by feeding them an unending supply of followers, who are blinded by hate for everything you stand for – Deceit and Hypocrisy!
