Conservative Party Leader Repeats Labour’s Afghanistan Lie
Conservative Party leader David Cameron’s latest statement on Afghanistan repeats word for word Labour’s lies over that conflict, showing once again that there is no discernible difference between the Tory and Labour parties.
In a mass email sent out today, and posted up on the Tory website shortly afterwards, Mr Cameron justified the war by saying it was necessary to “stop terrorism in Britain” — the identical phrase used by Gordon Brown only a few weeks ago.
In his statement Mr Cameron said, “We need to make it clear to the British people why we’re in Afghanistan. It’s simple — to stop terrorism here in Britain.”
The Tory leader also called indirectly for even more money to be spent in that conflict to “help the Afghans to stop their country from once again hosting the world’s most dangerous terrorists.”
Mr Cameron said it was Britain’s job to “train and equip the Afghan army to root out terrorists, and to support them until they can do this for themselves.”
“This is a new kind of war; it’s a necessary war, and we need strong leadership and relentless focus to explain that to people in Britain.
“I’m confident we can see success in Afghanistan,” Mr Cameron continued, in effect committing Britain to continuing that conflict on an open-ended basis.
These words are identical to the unmitigated pile of lies told by the Labour Party earlier when questioned about the British death toll in Afghanistan.
In reality, the British presence in Afghanistan does nothing to stop terrorism in Britain. Both Mr Cameron and Mr Brown are bare-faced liars.
The true facts about terrorism in Britain are:
- Official figures show that two thirds of all terrorist plots uncovered in this country are hatched in Pakistan;
- Those carrying out Islamist terror attacks in Britain have all been ‘asylum seekers’, recent Third World immigrants or second generation descendants of such immigrants — all of whom have been let into this county by immigration policies developed by successive Tory and Labour governments; and
- The illegal, immoral and totally unjustified invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq, which were launched by the Labour Party with the explicit support and backing of the Tory Party, are the primary cause of the current terrorist threat in Britain.
No amount of perfidious fabrications by Mr Tweedledee Cameron, who has now been reduced to repeating the idiotic explanations spouted by Mr Tweedledum Brown, can get around these facts.
The British National Party was the first political party in Britain to oppose these conflicts, and has held firm to this position ever since.
Britain has nothing to gain from involvement in those wars, and all our troops should be brought back immediately. Rather than dying in Helmland province for a local population who neither support nor appreciate their sacrifice, they can be far better deployed securing our own borders from the masses of would-be invaders who seek to occupy Britain.
