I try to stay away from politics because I’ve come to the simple understanding that change comes from within oneself and not through useless/endless political discussions. Although, when it comes to exposing, I’m all for it, baby.
As we all well know, these leaders tout peace and prosperity in front of cameras, but they hide behind the cloak of hypocrisy. Another poor victim/bystander of all this useless war & hatred recently pleaded to Mr. Tony Blair,
“I need you to help me now, Mr. Blair, because you are the only person on God’s earth who can help,” Bigley, 62, said in a video on the Internet and aired by broadcasters. “Please, please help me see my wife who cannot go on without me — and my son.” The engineer at Gulf Supplies and Commercial Services also asked for the release of female prisoners in Iraq, his captors’ main demand.
Where was Tony Blair, you ask?

A new video of Ken Bigley was released today. The 62 year old appears to have now given up hope with the following comment:
["Tony Blair is a liar. He doesn't care about me. I'm just one person," said Bigley, whose two American colleagues were beheaded on video last week by the al Qaeda-linked group which snatched them from their Baghdad home two weeks ago.
"My captors don't want to kill me," he added. ]
How does the government respond? Of course, through the use of a robotic spokesperson:
[A spokesman for the British Foreign Office said officials have seen the tape. ``It's positive to the extent that it does appear to prove, as we'd hoped, that Ken is alive. It's undated, so that's not 100 percent,'' the spokesman said, but he refused to comment about Bigley's remarks about Blair.]
At least they could fucking lie & say they are hard at work in trying to find this poor, old man. Talk about being heartless bastards!
