Air flights versus flights of fancy

With characteristic childishness, Brussels foams with faux indignation over something they didn’t just consented to, but concealed: flight that carried the hardcore badasses off to the crowbar hotel.

Today’s Telegraph (UK) reports:

«The EU agreed to give America access to facilities - presumably airports - in confidential talks in Athens during which the war on terror was discussed, the original minutes show. But all references to the agreement were deleted from the record before it was published.

The document, entitled New Transatlantic Agenda, EU-US meeting on Justice and Home Affairs, details the subjects discussed by the 31 people present. The agenda included the fight against terrorism, drug trafficking and extradition agreements.

According to the full version, "Both sides agreed on areas where co-operation could be improved [inter alia] the exchange of data between border management services, increased use of European transit facilities to support the return of criminal/ inadmissible aliens, co-ordination with regard to false documents training and improving the co-operation in removals."

But this section, and others referring to US policy, were deleted - as a "courtesy" to Washington, according to a spokesman for the EU Council of Ministers.»
They weren’t deleted out of politesse, they were struck out because of the schizoid inability for the EU to admit to the positive and effective nature of any policy out there other than their own. If provide successful, they might have their feelings hurt.

To do this they have to make themselves believe that one must quibble over arbitrary categories of where a killer might fall into the Geneva Convention before detaining him, regardless of whether or not their conspiring to murder or already have.

In the mean time, they and their zombie-like ideological backer continue with the usual business – wasting years and billions on ineffectual “feel-good” programs and conferences, signing treaties they’ll never conform with, and perniciously criticizing cultures with enough self-esteem to take it sitting down.

Hey, maybe if the whole nutty trazi cabal could be convinced that terrorists cause pollution, they might think differently. What am I thinking? Agent Orange sprayed 40 years ago still matters more to these idiots than bio-terrorism.
