He requested the plate but was denied by the Michigan Secretary of State’s office, which called the lettering offensive.<br /><br />In court, the state clarified its position by suggesting the move was made with the best interest of children at heart.<br /><br />“Many young children of reading age ride in vehicles and are unwillingly exposed to license plates on other vehicles,” reads the motion to dismiss the suit. “They sometimes amuse themselves by reading or playing games with license plates. And because vehicles often travel in residential neighborhoods, youth may be exposed to license plates from their yards or driveways” [...]<br /><br />http://rt.com/usa/michigan-war-sux-plate-096/Under Mattan Blogghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09082653955713688872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-141878910793686547.post-79924012963285303112014-01-02T22:35:35.789+01:002014-01-02T22:35:35.789+01:00How Zionist Extremists Helped Create Britain’s Sur...How Zionist Extremists Helped Create Britain’s Surveillance State<br /><br />January 1, 2014<br /><br />Source: FP<br /><br />In World War II's aftermath, MI5 turned to fight a new threat. It wasn't the Soviets. It was bombers from Jerusalem.<br /><br />The years after World War II were not kind to Britain's intelligence services -- especially MI5, its domestic counterintelligence and security agency. In the name of austerity, funding of the nation's intelligence services was slashed, their emergency wartime powers removed, and their staff numbers drastically reduced. MI5's ranks were reduced from 350 officers at its height in 1943, to just a hundred in 1946. Its administrative records reveal that it was forced to start buying cheaper ink and paper, and its officers were instructed to type reports on both sides of paper to save money. And there were some serious discussions within the government, as there had been after World War I, about shutting MI5 down altogether. Unfortunately for MI5, in the post-war years it faced the worst possible combination of circumstances: reduced resources, but increased responsibilities. After the war Britain had more territories under its control than at any point in its history, and MI5 was responsible for security intelligence in all British territories.<br /><br />But MI5's most urgent threat lay not in its diminished resources, nor from its new Soviet enemy. Recently declassified intelligence records reveal that at the end of the war the main priority for MI5 was the threat of terrorism emanating from the Middle East, specifically from the two main Zionist terrorist groups operating in the Mandate of Palestine, which had been placed under British control in 1921.
