The Independent is reporting that Italian police have admitted to planting Molotov cocktails to frame G8 protesters.

Ethel the Blog has this to say:



Today's quiz question: Name three other countries wherein, if such a thing happened, it would be held up as necessary and sufficient evidence to forcibly overthrow the government. Of course, given that this is Italy, the government will be changing in a couple of weeks anyway.


and, while you're there, scroll down to read this post about our favorite columnist from Planet K-Peg:


And speaking of the Pegster, I quiveringly await her inevitable column along the same lines, wherein she implies how much more she'd rather pull a train with The Nine (well, at least as soon as she's finished with every fire and police department in the country) than with any namby-pamby pack of commie liberals. I'll bet she even finds a tasteful way to work in how magical dolphins (touched by the hand of Bog, of course) swam around in the mine to ensure that Arab terrorists wouldn't sneak up on The Nine while they were being rescued from the failed liberal social policies of the 60s.
