Funding the Cluster Bombs

[Ian Warren]

Oh boy ... when i first read this post (and well done Charl ) i thought , this is a time bomb ...tick tick tick.
And sure enough , a deletion and only up to page one .

Tick tick tick

Really! why is such a problem .. If New Zealand has the BALLS to stand up and change things and other things in outside and diff areas , nothing offensive here, other stuff , its readily available everywhere , ya all know me .. straight to the point !

[Ian Warren]

It was a twelve letter word

Oh, that would have been Mr Clutterbuck, then?

If you must have war, you need weapons; but you are fighting the enemy army, not non-combatants. Land mines and cluster bombs are indiscriminate, they are just as likely to kill your own people as your enemies. That's why the first world don't like them, but they like the profits to be made from supplying these weapons to second or third world countries, who don't care about such distinctions.
I just don't know how we can identify and eliminate at an early age, the sort of people who dream up these weapons.

Mike .. You as a One day visitor , and a bloody great chin wag in all targets and .. lets add extra ... I'm sure Clint did not say
"Mr Clutterbuck" ,

Mike .. Weapons .. as I pointed out in earlier post ... everyone uses them , today is another to build and make them better.

But his first name is Klaus, so the surveillance mics at your place may have picked it up wrong ...

[Ian Warren]

Clint must have visited the place ... maybe General Cluster Klaus ... name did sound familiar

"Really!" yes really ... your place 1200hrs on monday ? (I'll bring lunch) Im still not a 100% for work , but I am 100% ok to thrash this out with you .

[Ian Warren]

That's a Wodger Really.

Paid a visit to the Warren place today .... i went prepared , i was packing an ankle piece , one under my jacket , and another tucked into the back of my belt.
Anyway ... i knock ... the door opens , and there he is ..... Mr cluster, ....i tell him "the forum sent me ... take a seat " which he did .
I saw him reach under his jacket , so put him in head lock , disarmed him .... slapped his face twice , and told him "bombs are bad Ian " "got it ? "

He got it , then i told him "i was never here " ... he agreed
Situation neutralized .

Nuh .... that never happened ..... i arrived at noon with some lunch , he made coffees and we talked ... and talked , watched plane stuff on youtube .
Then he had a turn .... scary stuff , i offered to stay but he said he was ok.
Spoke with him tonight , hes not 100% but getting there .
Ian has a great neighbor / family/ police support group , so he will be fine.

I did have his permission to post this.

Something in the water, in Christchurch...

[Splitpin]

Must be ... cant think of anything else Charl

[cowpatz]

As long as it's not that same thing in the water as Havelock North!

[Charl]

Probably: they're full of ...t!

[Splitpin]

Just spoke to Ian ...hes about 70% right.
Seems to be taking a bit longer to recover from whatever it was he had ... buts he doing fine.

[cowpatz]

Glad to read he is on the mend.

[emfrat]

Good news about Ian, thanks Marty.

There's something in the water at Loch Ness, too

[Fozzer]

Paul.... ....!

[Splitpin]

Then I thought further: Wait a minute! isn't Lockheed Martin the purveyor of a flightsim which takes money by way of "Licence Fees"?

It does bother me to be honest. I'm a civilian sim flyer usually and a fan of Boeing airliners, but as we all know they're just as involved/guilty of feeding the military machine.

[Ian Warren]

Thanks the lot of you, least it happened at home, it worst when i'm out on the street and try to home , four time now been dropped after the funky chicken, now been six years almost exactly on the date since first through in hospital , the handy one was collapsing in the doctors office five/six months later... Ooooo there is something wrong , back to hospital further X-rays find my right lung is semi inflated ... and other broken bits ..

Back at work General Cable, were is old Ian , on the floor again Management did not like my job as a judder for the speeding forklifts .. So my job today is Aviation Art in Action.

You can say the same for for brands of electronics ... for the un-educated , Westinghouse company make washing machines, oven and other house hold appliance's and weaponry and been making Shhh Nuclear Reactors since they were invented ... every has a finger into weapons and a lot of New Zealand companies also added to the list.
