The mine warning use is clearly exploitative, thus the canary was replaced with signs and placards designating the mines as toxic gas free zones. Miners deaths will now be reported/justified/apologized for as partially blamed on the miners themselves. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/san-bernardino-bloodbath-born-bigots-article-1.2456491</p>Garnel Ironheart commented on 'Canary in the Coal Mine'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c581e53ef01b8d17f8602970c2015-12-06T10:10:53Z2016-01-11T07:10:46ZGarnel Ironhearthttp://garnelironheart.blogspot.comA stabbing attack in London means the British will blame Israel.<p>A stabbing attack in London means the British will blame Israel.</p>Ed commented on 'Canary in the Coal Mine'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c581e53ef01bb0899e7f5970d2015-12-06T08:14:37Z2016-01-11T07:10:46ZEdObama is giving a national TV address Sun evening.

I wonder if the stabbings experienced in Israel and now the UK will come to the US. Sort of doubt it,as combat rifles and homemade bombs seem to be the weapons of choice.I hope the West wakes up before many more innocents are killed. </p>Lioness commented on 'Canary in the Coal Mine'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c581e53ef01bb0899e4b4970d2015-12-06T06:58:17Z2016-01-11T07:10:46ZLionessI couldn't agree more.

However, l don't think the Western world will be able to face the truth until thousands more die and we reach the same state of constant peril Israel has been coping with for decades now. The other countries would be better prepared by now if they'd started taking steps ages ago, this shouldn't have been a surprise to anyone truly paying attention, but PC, anti-semitism and denial have been a powerful, deadly combo. Not that they're minding learning from Israel now, even as mainstream media continue to do their splendid job.</p>treppenwitz commented on 'Canary in the Coal Mine'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c581e53ef01b7c7f5db2f970b2015-12-06T06:29:12Z2016-01-11T07:10:46Ztreppenwitzhttp://www.treppenwitz.comRobin ...

The primary responsibility of governments is to protect their citizens against threats, both foreign and domestic. The societies that are coming under attack in Europe and the US are ostensibly under the same kind of governmental protection as we enjoy. Whether those governments have the wit or resolve to use the tools at their disposal to protect their citizens is another story. Just don't confuse 'unable' with 'unwilling' when it comes to fighting this threat.</p>Robin commented on 'Canary in the Coal Mine'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c581e53ef01bb0899e351970d2015-12-06T06:24:09Z2016-01-11T07:10:46ZRobin There is a problem with using the canary in the coal mine analogy....
