Why are the Metropolitan Police not feeling Tory Lord Sebastian Coe’s collar and trawling his hard drives? I blogged recently about his involvement in awarding the World Athletics Championships without a vote to the hometown of his long term paymasters and sponsors, Nike. Plus the £12 million his promotions company made from VIP hospitality packages for the Olympics, the VIP tickets for which were allocated by the Organising Committee of which he was the £600,000 pa chairman.
Now we have this, from the person Coe works closest with in the IAAF and who he has now promoted to head the President’s office since Coe assumed that title:
« Dear Papa,
Following our discussion earlier I have already had some thoughts and believe that we need to do the following, in the strict confidence and control within a small circle of senior IAAF staff only. This must be very secret.
(…)4. Finally, as soon as possible, and ‘unofficially’ PR campaign to ensure that we avoid international media scandals related to the Moscow Championships especially in the British press, where the worst of the articles is coming from. This will require specialist PR skills (working only with me directly) from London, but I believe that if we consider using CSM we can also benefit from Seb’s political influence in the UK. It is in his personal interest to ensure that the Moscow World Champs is a success and that people do not think that the media of his own country are trying to destroy it. We can work extremely hard in stopping any planed ‘attack’ on Russia from the British press in the coming weeks.
5. Finally, I need to be able to sit down with the Anti-doping department and understand exactly what Russian ‘skeleton’ we have still in the cupboard regarding doping. I think that the time to have unveiled the various athletes was a long time ago and that now we need to be smart. These athletes, of course, should NOT be part of any Russian team for these World Championships and Valentin should be pressurised to make sure this is the case. If the guilty ones are not competing then we might as well wait until the event is over to announce them. Or we announce one or two BUT AT THE SAME TIME as athletes from other countries. Also we can prepare a special dossier on IAAF testing which will show that one of the reasons why these Russian athletes come up positive is that they get tested a lot !!! In the same way, we can make the point that the WADA laboratory is the responsibility of WADA not IAAF and that if WADA decides there really is a problem, we have a plan B to do the tests in Lausanne instead (Gabriel confirmed this to me yesterday).
Papa, as soon as I have an idea of the price of this unofficial PR campaign I will let you know, but I will do everything in my power to protect the IAAF and the President.
All the best Nick »
So what does the Establishment now wish us to believe?
a) As long-term Vice President of the IAAF, Coe had no idea the organisation was massively corrupt and the President was taking huge bribes to cover-up doping scandals.
b) Coe had no idea his close associate and now head of his office Nick Davies was writing to the son of the President proposing that Coe’s company and Coe’s “political influence” be used to keep doping scandals out of the British media.
c) Coe’s meeting, while Vice President of the IAAF, with executives of his sponsor Nike, to discuss awarding the World Athletics Championships to Eugene, had no bearing at all on the decision of the President of IAAF to award the games to Eugene without a vote.
All that is even less convincing than Sepp Blatter’s declarations of innocence. Yet there is an utter difference in the British media’s treatment of Blatter and of “Lord” Coe.
I wonder why?
Superficial as ever, Alcyone.
Highly recommended by The Guardian, Evening Standard, Time Out, Rough Guide and Herbie’s taste buds.
I’d trust you on this as much as I’d trust your political judgement.
That is. Not at all.
Israel is the greatest threat to world peace today.
That is a fact.
And JFK knew it!
And increasingly opinion polls are of the same view.
“Anon1
Everyone deplores these crimes but there’s nothing like the systemised brutality of Israel.”
—————-
Well you certainly don’t, “Aidworker1”. You are an irregular contributor here but I have seen you comment on nothing else but Israel/Zionism/J**s.
It throws into doubt somewhat your “aidworker” credentials.
“Curry house”, Herbie, “curry house”. They need you. I don’t, nor your ‘trust’.
Alcyone
I don’t normally troll but you are the lowest hasbara I’ve seen for ages!
What time is it in Israel??
What do you get paid?
Your only saving grace, Alcyone, that you’re so illiterate few can work out what the hell you’re trying to say.
Alcyone
It will be a long time before you hear a single criticism of Islam on this blog. The far-left seem to have decided it is the best thing since sliced head.
Herbie
Very good!!
But Herbie
The hasbara are collating comments here – it’s really organised!
Plenty of criticism of the Wahhabs and Muslim Brotherhood and those others who pervert Islam to Western interests.
Complexity, however, doesn’t suit simple propagandists such as yourself.
“The hasbara are collating comments here – it’s really organised!”
Ultimately it’s pretty much fruitless now.
They’re just for fun now.
The game’s up.
There’s little further utility in radicalising muslims, now that Russia, China and India are onto them.
No doubt it’ll linger for a while.
But, the inflection point is passed.
“Your only saving grace, Alcyone, that you’re so illiterate few can work out what the hell you’re trying to say.”
Your only saving grace, Alcyone, that you’re so literate few can work out what the hell you’re trying to say.
There you are you pompous lost oaf, fixed it. I don’t address you or pedestrian bigots like Aidstricken1. You are lost causes.
Bury yourself with academics like Chomsky and your corbettreports while we deal with real human issues with objectivity and Universal Intelligence.
“But Herbie”, look Uncle Herbie what they’re doing! Can I hide behind your balls, Uncle herbie?
You pipsqueak.
Anon, I think I more or less agree with what this guy says, as much as I’m averse to violence:
” · Editor’s position on Muslims A Twitter note asks us: you criticize Muslims but what is the solution? First, to be clear, the nonsense currently going on has nothing to do with Muslims but everything to do with Islamists. Yes, Islamists are Muslims by self-declaration, but they are a tiny minority who come up with sick, murderous formulations of what Islam is. Islam does not have a central authority, and every cleric is free to interpret things as he likes. The Islamists are the apostates.
· Yes, Editor is aware there are 109 verses in the Koran/Hadiths sanctioning violence, but without getting too Marxist about it, religion comes from politics and politics comes from economics. The Prophet got his stuff from 20-years of revelations made to him by the Archangel Gabriel; the same gentleman who sits at God’s right hand. Is it beyond belief that the Prophet heard/saw what he wanted to? Is it beyond belief that he interpreted what he heard/said to further political purposes? Is it beyond belief that his followers wrote down/modified his words to suit the political/economic purpose of the day?
· It shouldn’t be, because the Old Testament has a lot of violence. Yahweh not only said it was okay to eliminate nations, but promised to do it himself. So once upon a time Christians merrily slaughtered non-Christians and each other. But Christians grew out of this habit. What Yahweh said was mandatory 3-6,000 years ago doesn’t apply now. Anyone claiming he has to right to kill others in the name of the Christian God would quickly up against today’s God, the state, which says you don’t have the right to kill anyone. Yes, Editor does see the irony here because the new God, the state, says it’s perfectly okay to slaughter those the state nominates as non-believers.
· In all this please not to forget Communism, a peculiar religion because it removed God from supremacy and instituted its ideological formulators as replacements. Horrible as the deeds of Islamists are, they are not a patch on the deeds of communists. Just as one example, we have a very long way to go before Islamists can even think of equaling the killings of Stalin and Mao. Cambodia had a population of 7-million in 1975; between 20-40% of the population was eliminated in four years. Hitler, Stalin, Mao should be ashamed of themselves for their lack of zeal. And the Cambodians did not have German efficiency.
· Okay, okay, our readers plead. Enough already. We get it. Just as you cannot blame the majority of Christians for the excesses of the past, you cannot blame the majority of Muslims for the excesses today. We agree that the Shia Muslims, to take an example, are as much victims of Sunni Muslims as are Christians and other minorities. So what is it Editor is saying?
· Simple. Editor did criticize American Muslims for failing to sufficiently stand up and condemn the enemies of America, just because they happen to share parts of the beliefs that allegedly motivate the Islamists. “We can’t be seen to be criticizing our religion when it is under attack.” Here is the thing, people. If you refuse to stand up, you are anti-American, and Editor could care less what religion you are.
· Please also to note that the Editor has repeatedly criticized the American leadership, which is composed of Christian and Jews, for standing indifferent to the genocide of Christians in the Middle East. Instead of standing up, our leadership tells us, in effect, that we should be ashamed of ourselves for demanding action on behalf of Christians. Our Noble Leader tells us he cannot advocate for Christians in preference to others because this is not who we are, and these are not our values.
· Oh, please Noble Leader. Put a large sock in it, better still, put a dozen unwashed stinky socks. Who are you to tell me who Americans are and what my values should be? It is okay to be at war to save Muslims of Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria from brutal Islamists but not okay to fight for Christians? It’s okay for us to promise to kill those who harm Jews but not defend Christians?
· Talk about discrimination! Any man who would save others rather than his own is not an exemplar of American values. Of course, Noble Leader can get away with his stand because Americans are not standing up for non-American Christians. These are our values? If so, the majority of Americans will permanently buy the farm once the Second Coming arrives.
· As for us not suggesting solutions as our Twitter reader accuses: please, people. Editor has suggested the solution many, many times. You don’t try and cure and redeem rabid dogs, you kill them. Kill the Islamists until we reach the point that people say, okay, we give up this Islamist thing because we’d rather live. Sure, many will say we’d rather die. In which case it is our American duty to give them what they want.”

Anon, back to moderation. Else I’ve posted from another blog that deals with the subject of ISIS and Muslims etc.
His conclusion:

Why are the Palestinians not being helped by their rich and powerful Arab brethren?
You’re even less literate when you’re angry, Alcyone.
Did you know that.
It’s quite amusing.
Must wind you up a bt more.
Re : flooding
My home has been unaffected, but I have knowledge of two areas where there has been worse flooding than ever known before. In both cases locals blame it on lack of maintenance of ditches and drains rather than unprecedented rainfall.
As I’ve just recently stated, the handful of Pro-Establishment Trolls here are basically just little filthy racists; It’s no co-incidence that Alcyone/Villager has just linked to a Race Hate Site, Anon1 has also previously done so, but learnt his lesson so now just cuts & pastes, and of course Resident Dissident “just happened” to be perusing another Race Hate Site, where he “just happened” to find a Post purportedly from Mary, and not forgetting Jemand’s many links to such Sites also.
Alcyone/Villager has not just linked to a Race Hate site, but actually quoted a passage where “Islamists” which is code for all Muslims, are compared to rabid dogs, and that the solution is for “us” to do “our duty” by giving them want they want, which is death. Imagine if the link had been to an Anti-Semitic site, and J__s were being compared to rabid dogs asking for death, would not that Poster had been banned straight away ?
Oh Macky your lack of education, which you try very hard indeed to cover up, is showing. You’re still reeling from not being included in Habby’s list of Eminences. But, as he said, and with which I concur not for lack of trying; just lack of basic intellectual ability.
Now have your wet dreams about race-hate sites and don’t let your impaired comprehension ability get in the way.
Tonight the flood is dragging trolls out from behind their stones and craggy structures.
Habby is playing Kabuki, with Alcy anyone clapping in unison, thrashing at Muslims, the poor haunted middle class fascist she is, its got to be Muslim, somebody here has to support Trumps trumps.
How dare you denigrate other religions, being a slave of some charlatan mystic cultist who has fried your two braincells, not that you wish all religious twaddle here erased, including your own, no, you have to be by partisan, specific neocon and…yawn….boooooring.
And off course you are turni9ng off others from the blog with your petty attacks, pack hounds trying to outfox wolves.
piss on you
Nevermind, I couldn’t even be bothered pissing on the trolls.
They are all going to be put up against a wall and shot.
Maybe Obama ain’t so bad after all. Let’s remember the military-industrial complex is now the deep state out front – so Prez Howdy Doody has only got the cracks to work in. Maybe he should have moved sooner. He didn’t. It is what it is.
Iran’s now a player and Russia has upset the game plan in Syria. Get used to it, Bibi, and all you neocon AZ psychopaths. They’re the fucks who’d burn the world rather than put their dicks away and, you know, compromise. It’s what adults do.

Haha. So good I posted twice ! Apologies: gremlins.
Anon1 : Has anyone else noticed that when you disagree with a retard like Node, they just hose you with ‘links’, none of which you are ever going to read?

Hope this is the last troll jamboree for 2015.
On my motorcycle training course we covered inspection and maintenance of our vehicles. One day our instructor asked us which was the most hazardous fastener to overlook during maintenance. Suggestions were numerous; the wheel spindle? Not necessarily. The brake caliper bolt? Not necessarily. The handlebar clamp? Not necessarily. Which then?
The one that’s loose.
Almost everyone here, Clark, is loose.
“Has anyone else noticed that when you disagree with a retard like Node, they just hose you with ‘links’, none of which you are ever going to read?”
Judging from his contributions Anon1 is hardly capable of reading anything but what he’s fed from his race masters of the master race, Kempe has commented twice today arguing against articles he never read because it fits his prescribed beliefs, and Noddy, dear friend, I’ve heard has progressed to adventures of the Famous Five. Well done, boy!
