Jonesy Has a Crack
Many of you would have heard of the recent sacking of Sir Dean Jones from his Dubai based broadcasting position after he labelled South African cricket Hashim Amla, a terrorist. Jones was heard to say "and the terrorist takes another wicket" after Amla took a catch to dismiss Kumar Sangakkara on the fourth day of the Test Match, in some fucking pov country somewhere.

Let me start by clarifying a couple of things. I'm not a racist person. I promise. I embrace multicultralism, I just have a hard time swallowing some issues in today's world. For instance, the problems in Lebanon and Israel. The plethora of people who blame Johnny H and his cronies for not getting them out of war-torn Lebanon, despite the fact that they have lived there for the past 5 years.

Memo to Australians living in Lebanon - you are not our problem. You chose to live there, and whether or not 5 years ago you lived in Lakemba for 2 weeks is irrelevant. Either learn to run for your fucking lives, or learn to swim. Capiche?

Ok, so I'm getting off topic a little bit. Back to Jonesy. In all honesty, he only said what everyone was thinking. Look at the bloke. He looks like a terrorist. He worships like a terrorist. His name is that of a terrorist. He even sounds like a terrorist. He takes a catch in the outfield, and you can hear him scream the infidel death cry at high pitch. I mean, the bloke screams terrorist.
I'm fairly confident I saw him packing explosives in his cricket kit, as well as strapping them to his body. Word of warning.

Truth be told, if the various US Airport staff or "The Tube" staff had the same sort of awareness Jonesy had, we may have managed to avert 2 of the world's most devastating terrorist attacks. If everyone was like Jonesy, we'd have a safer world and a more even playing field in the sport of Cricket. If everyone was more like Jonesy, Pakistan wouldn't have a cricket team.

The fact is, Jonesy was right. His comments may have been considered harsh, but when Amla blows up a stadium filled with Derka Derkastanians in southern Derka Derkastan, screaming "Derka Derka Mohammed Sherpa Jihad", you'll know he was right.

Don't hang a man for speaking the truth.

I was on a tram with a friend of mine & I laughed out loud when he told me what DJ said.

I got quite a few greaseys. I think someone may have put a jihad on me.

Funny, none the less.

I think I summed it up best earlier, when I said...

"Unless you're my friend, you're probably a terrorist"

Go terrorism...seriously. In a few years the terrorists will no longer be terrorists and the tides will have turned.

Everyone hates war...I think it's exciting. God, everyone will die, why does it matter when? I'd rather go out in a blaze of youthful glory than waste away until I'm old and useless and no longer hot.

I don't plan to live past 55.
