ANOTHER Christmas approaches with the Baby Jesus buried under the rubble in yet another country. We know how the new Conservative leader can do it, because you can not be a Conservative unless you are bombing and terrorising innocent civilians. But how can a Labour government do it?

How many more hospitals, refugee camps and schools, are the Israeli occupation force going to be permitted to exterminate? How many more refugees are going to be bombed with the illegal white phosphorous? How many more will be burnt alive? How much longer are MY taxes going to be used to annihilate women, children, old and disabled innocents? Do not forget there will be a day of judgement, and the people who are in doing this will have to answer to God. In Buddhist terms everybody will have to face their Karma, or the consequences of their murderous actions. Nobody can escape their Karma.
I expect Christmas to be cancelled this year. Do not spend a penny on celebrating death. I do not expect to receive an acknowledgement from ANY democratically elected representative, as they are too busy with their faces in the trough to bother about dead babies. SHAME ON YOU.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
