War Criminal Jack Straw arrives in Cyprus with Avian Flu Alert

Bad news all round. Famous War Criminal lands to continue with partition of Cyprus in which (watched by the US 6th Fleet and the UK forces who stayed in their SOVEREIGN Bases) Turkey in 1974 grabbed 60% of the land produced 200K refugees and imported 200K destitute Turks) the EU now want to formalise.

Similiarly they want to usher in Croatia, whose Ustashe forces (Fascist in WW2)cleansed Kranje Luka of Serbs, with the aid of overflights and data obtained from USAF Predator aircraft.

Meanwhile suspicious bits of a dead Turkey (The edible sort) and a chicken from avillage only a few miles from Dhekelia (The East Sovereign Base Area ESBA). UK troops from Lancs 2nd Battalion Fusiliers (of Daily Mail hocus pocus photo fame)are manning border checkpoints and (probably illegally) searching vehicles entering Cyprus and Cyprus Government Vets are disinfecting vehicles.

The Cyprus Greek Government appear well up to speed on precautions and planning , having banned duck shooting (reported here before .. which seems to be being obeyed). Two local ornithologists report dead uneaten sparrows found which is remarkable as they are rarely roadkill due to small size.

If proven to be the appropriate R2D2 virus is this a portent of the visit from Bush's washroom assistants friend to carve the island up to hurry along the Turks into Europe ?
