Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts says the city will review the status of the annual Sikh Vaisakhi parade after a controversial float was included in the event Saturday.Very catchy. Almost ranks right up there with "jihad is the way, sharia is the goal," don't you think?

The float featured the flag of Khalistan, the independent Sikh state that separatists want to carve out of India's Punjab state.

Surrey (maybe even Watts) have threatened to pull the permit on this terrorfest in the past. They do not have the political balls to do it. They don't want the vote Sikhed against them. I predict more of the same.

Another 'stan'?
The idea makes one howl.
Can't think of a plan that's more foul.
There's Kazakh and Uzbeki
And--what's that one?
Wait a sec'y--
Oh yeah, Kyrghyz.
Please buy it a vowel.
That's the plan Stan.
It's two, two, two 'stans' in one: http://www.cbc.ca/world/story/2010/04/19/kyrgyzstan-deposed-president.html
