is there no higher purpose...

<<...to this list than the backbiting and
pettifogging, pretentious pedantry on display every
day from the malignant magpie and his ilk? Truly
tedious stuff.  And deeply embarrassing to all of us. 
It gives new meaning to spam.>>

Not sure I possess an "ilk," but I do like that
alliteration.

I'm trying to picture you there at home at your desk,
cringing in embarrassment.

Harold Pinter, by the way, invited Bush and Blair to
another cup of blood, also wrote this:

One of the more nauseating images of the year 2002 is
that of our Prime Minister kneeling in the church on
Christmas Day praying for peace on earth and good will
towards all men while simultaneously preparing to
assist in the murder of thousands of totally innocent
people in Iraq.

I've been taken to task recently by the American
Ambassador to Britain for calling the US
Administration a blood thirsty wild animal. All I can
say is: take a look at Donald Rumsfeld's face and the
case is made.

I believe that not only is this contemplated act
criminal, malevolent and barbaric, it also contains
within itself a palpable joy in destruction. Power, as
has often been remarked, is the great aphrodisiac, and
so, it would seem, is the death of others.

"The Americans have the ostensible support of the
'international community' through various sure-fire
modes of intimidation; bullying, bribery, blackmail
and bullshit. The 'international community' becomes a
degraded entity bludgeoned into the service of a
brutal military force out of control. The most
despicable position is that of course of this country
which pretends to stand shoulder to shoulder with its
great ally while in fact being more of a whipped dog
than anyone else. We are demeaned, undermined and
dishonoured by our government's contemptible
subservience to the United States."

Agree with him or not, no fear of sliming for Harold.
