Tigress Power: My Mission
Who is Tigress?
I
am known as Tigress and I have made it "my mission to take on my Goliath,
"The North Atlantic Treaty Organization
and its allies". I am a Canadian freelance writer, activist and
international politics analyst with 49 years of self taught experience under my
claws.
One thing you
must understand about Tigress is that she has a heart of gold, but make her
angry and "Voila" a march
behind the barn is in order and sharp claws leave their marks on
deserving rumps.
Tigress flexing her razor sharp claws emits a loud rumbling purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr as she makes the big pronouncement. "And the winner of the RUMP AWARD for March 14, 2014 is Prime Minister Harper.
Coalition Government: Five Stars
Coalition is not a stinky word in today's world for it is representative of true democracy, which is the voice of the people airing their concerns and protesting in a non violent way for their rights such as housing, fair wages, access to education, medical care, a greener world, and most important of all the right to live in a world free from militarization.

Canadian Diplomat Alleges Troops in Afghanistan Were Complicit in Torture
Twas the season of approaching Christmas when not a mouse was stirring in the Canadian House of Parliament, but a single brave Canadian Diplomat stopped Canadians dead in their tracks. Allegations of Canadian Troops involved in the complicity of the torture of Afghani detainees shocked the Canadian public. Disbelief registered on their faces and in their voices as they sounded off on radio and television. How could this happen?
Richard Colvin, who was second in command at Canada's Kabul embassy in 2006 and 2007, said that Afghans swept up in security sweeps by Canadian troops during that time were routinely handed over to Afghan intelligence services.
"According to our information, the likelihood is that all Afghans we handed over were tortured," Colvin told Canada's parliament.
"For interrogators in Kandahar, it was standard procedure."
In other words we detained and handed over for severe torture, a lot of innocent people.
Needless to say, the Generals, Defense Minister Peter Mackay and his tory elves led the fray to deny the alleged charges. Whips cracked.
Colvin was intimidated and threatened and prevented from testifiying.Labels: Afghan detainees, Canada, Conservatives, Peter Mackay, torture
Canadian Values Under Attack by Conservative Government
A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murder is less to fear.
- Cicero Marcus Tullius, 106-43 BC
This is how "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion" describe the situation:The masses are "accustomed to listen to us only who pay it for obedience and attention. In this way, we shall create a blind mighty force which will never be in a position to move in any direction without the guidance of our agents...The people will submit to this regime because it will know that upon these leaders will depend its earnings, gratification and the receipt of all kinds of benefits." ("Protocols of Zion" 10)
As a conscientious objector, I Sandra Petrich (Fatima Zohar) object through the power of "free speech" and the "sword of the pen" the shameful antics of the Conservative Party in the House of Parliament (February 24, 09).I was sickened by these members who take it upon themselves to practice intimidation, to punish and to censor Canadian citizens who speak out against Israel. Shame on you! It reminded me of Austria in the 1930's.
My hero today is Khalad Mouammar and the Canadian Arab Federation. I thank you for your protest in support of Gaza and for your courage in speaking out against Israeli atrocities.
