Sperm Shortage in Holland
Cause he’s got his finger in the dyke? BBC A new Dutch law preventing sperm donors from remaining anonymous has resulted in a shortage of donations. It has forced an increasing number of Dutch women to cross the border to clinics in Belgium, where anonymity for sperm donors is the norm. The new legislation has been 10 years in the making. Dutch sperm centres can no longer accept anonymous donations and children born from a donation can obtain their father’s identity when they are 16. But ahead of the new regulations the number of men willing to donate their sperm has declined. Women are facing a waiting list of up to two years at a Dutch sperm bank. It is not known how many Dutch women are applying for sperm donations in Belgium, asking … Read entire article »
Belgians Charge Everyone with Crimes
but themselves Story here BRUSSELS (AFX) – Lawsuits filed in Belgium against US officials for alleged war crimes are “very serious” and could impact on travel arrangements of US officials, the chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff said. Responding to a lawsit expected to be filed tomorrow against the US commander in Iraq, General Tommy Franks, General Richard Myers said it would be up to diplomats to work out the exact consequences. But he said: “It’s looked upon by the US government as a very very serious situation… It is serious and it could clearly have an impact on where we gather.” A group of plaintiffs, mostly Iraqis, will file the suit tomorrow under a disputed Belgian “universal competence” law which allows charges to be brought regardless of where the alleged crimes took … Read entire article »

The Congo, Belgium’s Eternal Shame
Orgy of killing as Congo teeters on brink of genocide From the Telegraph Wielding machetes and rocket-launchers, hordes of tribal warriors and drug-crazed children marauded through the Congolese town of Bunia yesterday, unleashing an orgy of killing and forcing tens of thousands of terrified refugees across the Ugandan border. United Nations officials warned the Security Council that the crisis was potentially a genocide in the making, drawing parallels with Rwanda, where between 500,000 and one million people, mainly Tutsis, were killed by Hutus in 1994. “Bunia is on the verge of a humanitarian catastrophe,” UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan’s spokesman, Fred Eckhard, said. As the situation spiralled out of control, international humanitarian organisations evacuated 50 aid workers and their families from the town. There are 600 United Nations troops in Bunia, and they can’t do anything! Give … Read entire article »

Belgium, Redux
Washington Times Belgium, the only country that will be going straight to Hell, is considering whether or not to charge General Tommy Franks and other officers for war crimes in Iraq. Belgium, a country full of Phlegms and Loons, raped and sodomized (and not in a good way) the Congo for centuries and never once managed to feel any guilt. In fact, the country is crawling with people who participated in that particular crime against humanity and have never been charged. Nor have the tens of thousands of Belgians who fought with Hitler’s SS in World War II. I blogged this here. And now they may feel superior enough to the United States to try to charge our officers with war crimes. Time to leave Belgium, move NATO HQ out. Budapest is a lovely … Read entire article »

Belgium
I’ve avoided talking about Belgium, well… because it’s a pissant, unimportant speck of a country. But, the powers compel me… sonorous organ music Belgium is a country divided between the Flemish and the Waloons. The Phlegms are Dutch that are too good for the Netherlands and would rather be German and the Loons are French wannabes. About 38,000 Belgians served in Hitler’s Waffen SS. See HERE. Based upon population records, that aproximates two percent of the adult male population of military age. Now, the Belgians have decided that their own national courts have the authority to try “international criminals” for crimes committed in other countries. They would like to try Arial Sharon, for example. I wonder how many Belgians they’re going to try for their criminal colonial acts in the Congo before, during … Read entire article »
