Oh I'm not denying his livestyle allowed him to preach to the converted righteously
I'm just saying we all really like it here in the West, with our flat screen televisions and drinks on a Friday.

But to shout about caring about strangers 2,000 miles away in a war-torn shithole from the comfort of Parliament Square?

Right.

YES, WELL SAID
because only an idiot would protest outside the very place the decision to go to war was taken rather than to do it 2,000 miles away. Well said.

Sorry not to conform to fashionable opinion.
Vive la difference, etc.

au contraire
ill thought out logic and lazy cynicism is VERY fashionable at the moment I hear. go for it.

Ill thought-out? If he were that cross about it all he'd do something constructive like donate his fag money to Al Q'aida or something.
Cynical, yes. Because he's doing it for recognition, not for the Iraqis.

A bit like that Assange fellow. Or anyone at all who shouts their claims to want to change the status quo significantly from the comfort of say, Parliament Square, or behind their expensive computer screen.

Thank you - I'm happy I can count on your support.

Quite so.
I can think of literally no difference between opposing the war and supporting terrorist organisations.

I can think of loads.
But if you want to get down to it, both you and I know that you're deliberately obfuscating, and that I didn't even imply such a thing, let alone suggest it.

But at the end of the day, if Brian Haw gave a toss he'd do something more than wandering about Westminster shouting at buildings.
