27.Aug.2004 Im Bundesamt für Justiz in Bern (BJ) plagt die Beamten das schlechte Gewissen angesichts des "offensichtlich kriminellen Ursprungs" des Geldes.
Klagen nigerianischer Behörden, die dem ehemaligen Staatschef vorwerfen, das Land + vor allem die Zentralbank jahrelang systematisch geplündert zu haben, stießen auf Gehör.
Mit den rund 500.000.000 $ möchte die Regierung im hoch verschuldeten Nigeria künftig Entwicklungsprojekte finanzieren. URL: https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-314583,00.html
Nichtregierungsorganisationen (NGO) sind jedoch misstrauisch gegenüber dem beschlossenen Transfer. Die Erklärung von Bern (EvB), eine Koalition von sieben NGOs, hat die Bedingungen der Schweiz für die Rückgabe des Geldes an Nigeria kritisiert.
Christine Eberlein, Programmleiterin für internationale Finanzbeziehungen bei der EvB, fürchtet, dass die Millionen $ in Nigeria versickern.
Es sei nicht gewährleistet, dass das Geld wirklich den Opfern der Diktatur zugute kommt oder den Menschen, die in den Erdölfördergebieten leben + heute unter Umweltschäden leiden.
Es müsse eine "zielgerichtete Rückgabe" geben, sagt sie auf Anfrage von SPIEGEL ONLINE.
Dazu müssen laut Eberlein nicht nur Regierung + Schweizer Botschaft den Vorgang überwachen, sondern auch eine NGO vor Ort. URL: https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-314583,00.html
27.Aug.2004 Vor wenigen Tagen hat die Schweiz 500.000.000 $ des ehemaligen Diktators von Nigeria, Sani Abacha, herausgegeben.
Mehrere Schweizer Organisationen kritisieren nun die Bedingungen der Freigabe des bislang blockierten Vermögens. Sie fürchten, dass das Geld nicht bei den Opfern der Diktatur ankommt.

06.Aug.2004 According to the latest Zogby polling data, Mr. Bush [BGW968]'s job approval rating has dipped to 44 %. Quite dismal for a sitting president, with only three months before election.
However, it is still high enough to make me wonder, just how in the world can 44 % of the public actually believe Mr. Bush [BGW968] is doing a good job?

27.Aug.2004 -this morning at a farm in Smithville, Missouri- Kerry [KJF966] spoke about the desperate need to create a REAL alternative fuel program when Kerry [KJF966] becomes president.
Kerry [KJF966] plans to commit 20.000.000.000 $ for starters to create a viable biofuel + alternative energy program, to wean ourselves away from the stranglehold that foreign oil has on this country.
It is my hope that when he becomes the commander-in-chief, he will take a serious look at industrial hemp for a real energy source. It just makes plain good sense. It's a win-win situation for everyone.

Die israelischen Justizbehörden sehen sich mit einem massenhaften Hungerstreik von palästinensischen Häftlingen konfrontiert.

Eiskalt reagierte der israelische Minister für Innere Sicherheit:
„...meinetwegen können sie sich zu Tode hungern.“
27.Aug.2004 Am meisten aber wird der Reformprozess in einem Land beflügelt WO DAS LEID besonders hoch ist.
In Schweden beispielsweise war vor knapp zehn Jahren für jeden offenkundig, dass der Staat vor dem Offenbarungseid stand:
die Inflation bei 10 %, die Zinsen astronomisch hoch - es musste etwas geschehen.
So akzeptierten die Bürger selbst harte Einschnitte: Das
Arbeitslosengeld wurde gesenkt, das Kindergeld reduziert, ebenso das Wohngeld + das Krankengeld.
Schonungslos hatte Ministerpräsident Göran Persson den Schweden die Lage geschildert:
"Sei rüde, sei ehrlich, mach es schnell" lautete damals seine Devise.
In Deutschland dagegen hat sich die Arbeitslosigkeit über Jahre hinweg aufgebaut,
ein schleichender Prozess, wie die Autoren der Benchmarking-Studie bemerken:
"Damit hat in Deutschland eine gewisse Gewöhnung an hohe Arbeitslosigkeit stattgefunden." URL: https://www.spiegel.de/spiegel/0,1518,313283,00.html
27.Aug.2004 Dass es auch anders geht, zeigen die Beispiele von Ländern, die ihre Arbeitslosenquoten verringern, zum Teil sogar halbieren konnten.
Jedes Land ging dabei einen ganz eigenen Weg,
sie unterscheiden sich vor allem darin, wie viel die Behörden den Arbeitslosen zumuten.
Die USA beispielsweise fahren die harte Tour. Dort erhalten erwerbsfähige Arbeitslose in manchen Bundesstaaten nur ein halbes Jahr lang Unterstützung, im US-Schnitt machen die staatlichen Hilfen gerade 58 % des letzten Nettolohns aus;
laut einer OECD-Studie sinkt nach dem 60. Monat der Arbeitslosigkeit diese so genannte Nettolohnersatzrate sogar auf gerade noch 7 %. URL: https://www.spiegel.de/spiegel/0,1518,313283,00.html
27.Aug.2004 "Sei rüde, sei ehrlich, mach es schnell"
Viele Industriestaaten haben ihr Sozialsystem bereits grundlegend umgebaut.
Was den Deutschen an schmerzhaften Veränderungen noch bevorsteht, ist für UK Briten + USA Amerikaner + Dänen + Schweden + Schweizer + Österreicher schon ein Stück Sozialgeschichte.
Mehr als zehn Jahre liegt es teilweise bereits zurück, dass sie ihre Arbeitsmärkte reformiert haben - schnell, konsequent + nahezu geräuschlos.
Seitdem konzentrieren sich dort die Arbeitsverwaltungen auf die aktive Vermittlung von Jobs statt auf die passive Versorgung Arbeitsloser.
Sie haben das Prinzip des Förderns + Forderns durchgesetzt + den Leistungsbezug an den Willen des Einzelnen geknüpft, eine angebotene Stelle anzunehmen, selbst wenn sie der Qualifikation nicht entspricht.
"Jetzt ernten diese Länder die Früchte ihrer Politik", sagt Eric Thode von der Bertelsmann Stiftung.
Thode gehört zu einem Team von Wissenschaftlern, die gerade eine neue, so genannte Benchmarking-Studie vorgelegt haben, die zweite nach 2001.
Ihr Ergebnis ernüchtert: Deutschland ist in Sachen Beschäftigungsentwicklung im Vergleich mit 19 anderen OECD-Staaten weiter zurückgefallen,

26.Aug.2004 Campaign Laws + Slime -Let's cut the charade. Bush [BGW968]'s "Bart Simpson" approach to campaigning
didn't do it, man. You can't prove a thing) is as transparent as cellophane.
No matter how many times he uses soap + water, his hands still won't come clean.
26.Aug.2004 -This week- Ginsberg, Ben, one of the Bush [BGW968]/Cheney campaign's top legal advisors, (you may remember Ginsberg, Ben from the
00.Nov.2000 Florida recount fiasco) admitted to advising the Swift Boat Veterans For (Truth?) 527 organization.
That action, we have since learned is not illegal, since attorneys are allowed to play both sides of the same coin.
But if Bush [BGW968] hasn't yet gotten caught red-handed violating the letter of the law,
Bush [BGW968] sure as hell has violated the spirit of it.
It is nearly impossible now, with so many connections to the Swift Boat Veterans group to continue the Bart Simpson defense.
Yet the emphatic denials continue.
Do we need to have phone records + memos from president Bush [BGW968] that prove a connection ? Hardly.
Bush [BGW968]'s campaign tactics are some of the most unseemly that I can ever recall.
But you know the old saying - like father, like son.
Bush [BGHW948] smeared Dukakis, Michael with the Willie Horton ads.
Bush [BGW968] The son has the swift boat vets.
00.000.2004 This year we are witnessing an endless stream of distortions + lies,
which are being stretched + pulled like saltwater taffy.
It would be all too easy to say that the Bushies don't realize that
freedom of speech doesn't equate with a freedom to lie.
They know exactly what they are doing by taking the campaign directly into the mud.

26.Aug.2004-00-000.1980 -Ever since Reagan, Ronald campaigned for USA president :
More Living In Poverty Permanent Link URL: https://www.roaringbird.com/blog/_archives/2004/8/8-1.htm
26.Aug.2004-00-000.1980 every four yearthe question asked of voters s has been:
"Are you better off now, than you were four years ago?"
During this Bush [BGW968] presidential election cycle,
that is an easy question to answer + it is a resounding NO!
According to a Census Bureau report that came out 26.Aug.2004 there are
26.Aug.2004 1.3 million more USA Americans living in poverty than there were 26.Aug.2003
Also, 1.4 million more USA Americanss lost their health insurance benefits, although a million other USA Americans became insured, for a net loss of 400,000 people.
The report, which usually comes out in late September, was moved up, most probably because the Bush [BGW968] administration wanted to put as much distance between it and election day. They deny that politics was involved in the decision to move the report up a month.
26.Aug.2004
"If the head of a department had to resign every time someone below him did something wrong, it'd be a very empty cabinet table,'' said Harold Brown, defense secretary under President Jimmy Carter and a panel member. Indeed, members of the panel went out of their way to praise Mr. Rumsfeld for having tried to avert abuses by directing his staff beginning in late 2002 to draw up rules for interrogation at the USA Americans detention facility in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba.
But they said confusion about those rules, which were rewritten several times as part of a fierce Pentagon debate, ultimately added to problems in Afghanistan and Iraq as the procedures were put into force there, without adequate supervision, by military intelligence units that were moved from Cuba to the Middle East.
Mr. Rumsfeld, who was briefed on the findings by video conference on Tuesday morning, responded later in the day only with a brief statement, saying that the panel had provided "important information and recommendations.''
"We have said from the beginning that we would see that these incidents were fully investigated, make findings, make the appropriate corrections, and make them public,'' Mr. Rumsfeld said.
As described by Tillie K. Fowler, another member of the group and a former Republican congresswoman from Florida, the panel's mission was to find out "how this happened and who let it happen,'' a reference to the abuses that came to public attention in April with the publication of what have now become infamous photographs. URL: https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,315064,00.html
26.Aug.2004 The panel sidestepped the broader, even more contentious, question of whether Mr. Rumsfeld had sent enough troops to Iraq. It focused instead on what it described as short staffing among the military police, who were outnumbered by prisoners by a ratio of 75 to 1 at Abu Ghraib + at the headquarters of Lt. Gen. Ricardo S. Sanchez, whose 495-member staff numbered only about one-third of the authorized total. URL: https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,315064,00.html
26.Aug.2004 Beginning in late 2002, the panel said, Mr. Rumsfeld and his staff set the stage for an environment in which abuses later became widespread. They did this first by sowing confusion about what kinds of interrogation techniques would be permitted, then by failing to plan for the intensity of the post-invasion insurgency, and finally by delaying for months in dispatching reinforcements to help the USA Americans guards at Abu Ghraib contend with the swelling number of prisoners.URL: https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,315064,00.html
26.Aug.2004 NEWS ANALYSIS - A Trail of 'Major Failures' Leads to Defense Secretary's Office
In tracing responsibility for the abuses at Abu Ghraib prison, a panel drew a line that extended to Donald H. Rumsfeld. By DOUGLAS JEHL
Washington, Aug. 24 - For Donald H. Rumsfeld to resign over the prison abuses at Abu Ghraib would be a mistake, the four-member panel headed by James M. Schlesinger asserted Tuesday. But in tracing responsibility for what went wrong at Abu Ghraib, it drew a line that extended to the defense secretary's office.
The panel cited what it called major failures on the part of Mr. Rumsfeld and his aides in not anticipating and responding swiftly to the post-invasion insurgency in Iraq. On the eve of the Republican convention, that verdict could not have been welcome at the White House, where postwar problems in Iraq represent perhaps President Bush [BGW968]'s greatest political liability.
The report rarely mentions Mr. Rumsfeld by name, referring most often instead to the "office of the secretary of defense.'' But as a sharp criticism of postwar planning for Iraq, it represents the most explicit official indictment to date of an operation that was very much the province of Mr. Rumsfeld and his top deputies.
"Any defense establishment should adapt quickly to new conditions as they arise + in this case, we were slow, at least in the judgment of the members of this panel, to adapt accordingly after the insurgency started in the summer of 2003,'' Mr. Schlesinger, a former defense secretary himself, said in presenting the panel's findings at the Pentagon on Tuesday.URL: https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,315064,00.html
