-After Madrid: a strange
sort of solidarity -The bombings in Madrid have understandably set
off a huge wave of human solidarity across Spain + around Europe.
Yet in these uncertain times, it is a strange sort of solidarity.
Since nobody knows who planted the bombs, we are not certain who or what we are uniting and demonstrating against.
As Brendan O'Neill explains elsewhere on spiked, whoever is responsible, the bombings fit into a new pattern of terror for terror's sake,
where terrorism becomes an end in itself rather than a means to a political goal (see Terror for terror's sake).
The terrorists have no political cause against which we can all take a stand. There is no 'pro-bombing movement' to oppose;
no
sooner had the Basque separatist
movement Eta been blamed than the Basque people were staging protests
against the Madrid atrocities.Reprinted from :

The New Labour government is now pointing to Madrid as
'proof' that those of us who protest about governments exaggerating
the threat from terrorism are wrong. Of course terrorists can always
stage a spectacular attack. Where Blair and co exaggerate the threat
is in describing these attacks as a threat to the British and Western
way of life - part of a final 'Armageddon'-scale battle between Good
and Evil, as the prime minister put it last
week. But while bombers can blow up trains, they cannot
bring down civilisations - those tend to crumble from within.
The
best lasting memorial to the dead of Madrid will be to get on with
life.Reprinted

Korruptionsverdacht gegen Siemens-Manager -Bei ihrem

The NYT piece today reflects
continued efforts at the Pentagon to paint Franklin as a low-level
desk grunt with little access to Paul Wolfowitz.
This last is just a lie.
In
a conversation with me, Franklin indicated that he was in very close
contact with Wolfowitz + Franklin offered to get me an audience. I
said, "You don't read my web log, do you?"
CNN reports
that AIPAC,
which passed confidential Pentagon documents and information from
Franklin to the Israelis, holds 2000
meetings a year with US Senators and
Congressmen, leading to the passage of an average of 100 pro-Israel
pieces of legislation every year!
Some readers have suggested that
I have exaggerated AIPAC's
hold on the US Congress.
But I have direct knowledge of senators + congressmen being afraid to speak out on Israeli issues because of AIPAC's reputation for targetting representatives for un-election if they dare do so.
And, it is easy to check. Look in the Congressional record.
Is there ever any speech given on the floor critical of Israeli policy, given by a senator or representative who goes on to win the next election?
And look at the debates in every other parliament in the world; there are such criticisms elsewhere.
The US Congress is being held hostage by a single-issue lobbying organization that often puts Israeli interests above US interests, as the spying scandal +
the
attempts to thwart the prisoner exchange by Iran of high al-Qaeda
operatives for Mujahedin-e Khalq terrorists demonstrate.
Indeed,
you would expect the revelation of the FBI case to provoke
congressional investigations of AIPAC.
There won't be any, for obvious reasons.
Again, I underline that
the USA Jewish community does not support most AIPAC
positions (a majority are much closer to USA for Peace Now) +
that
this issue has to do with a small fanatical leadership of a specific
lobbying organization, nothing
more.URL: http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article6818.htm

Laura quite a reveal. Take a look at this article by Julian Borger at The Guardian. Perhaps there's a connection of the Israeli agent with what your reporting.
17.Jul.2003 -The Guardian-The spies who pushed for war http://www.guardian.co.uk/Iraq/Story/0,2763,999737,00.html
Julian Borger reports on the shadow rightwing intelligence network set up in Washington to second-guess the CIA + deliver a justification for toppling Saddam Hussein by force.
17.Jul.2003 -The Guardian-Excerpts: Office of Special Plans (OSP), was set up by USA defence secretary, Donald Rumsfeld + run by Doug Feith + Wolfowitz has a key role in coordinating.
USA OSP was an open + largely unfiltered conduit to the White House not only for the Iraqi opposition.
OSP also forged close ties to a parallel, ad hoc intelligence operation inside Sharon, Ariel's office in Israel specifically to bypass Mossad +
provide the Bush administration with more alarmist reports on Saddam's Iraq than Mossad was prepared to authorise.
"None of the Israelis who came were cleared into the Pentagon through normal channels," said one source familiar with the visits.
Instead, they were waved in on Mr Feith's authority without having to fill in the usual forms.
The
exchange of information continued
a long-standing relationship
Mr Feith
+ other
USA
Washington neo-conservatives
had with Israel's
Likud party.

investigation . For
months, I have been working
with my colleagues Paul Glastris + Josh Marshall on a story for the
Washington
Monthly about
pre-war intelligence.
In
particular, the component I have been focusing on involves a
particular series of meetings involving
officials from the office of the
undersecretary of defense for Policy Feith,
Doug
+ Iranian
dissidents.
As part of our reporting, I have
come into possession of information that points to
an official who is the most likely target of the FBI
investigation into who allegedly passed intelligence
on deliberations on USA
foreign policy to Iran
to officials with the pro-Israeli
lobby group, AIPAC,
as alleged by the CBS
report.
That individual is Franklin,
Larry a veteran DIA
Iran
analyst seconded to Feith’s
OSP.

One senior USA
intelligence
source told {EIR} that, were it not for Colin Powell pitching a fit,
the Irangate
II schemes would have gone a lot further. The extent to which this
descent into Hell actually gripped the Bush-Cheney
Administration is now a question for Federal investigators to ferret
out.URL: http://www.rense.com/general56/supreb.htm
First published June, 2004
00.000.19---00.000.19--
Reagan-Bush
[BGHW948]
USA
National Security Council NSC staffer North,
Oliver
used
Ghorbanifar
as the intermediary
between the Iranian
government + Israel.
00.000.19---00.000.19-- -then- Reagan-Bush [BGHW948] USA National Security Council NSC consultant Led een, a to the National Security Council NSC , had promoted Ghorbanifar as a trustworthy asset.
As part of an elaborate scheme to win the release of USA hostages in Lebanon, Ghorbanifar had brokered the secret sale of 508 TOW missiles to Iran.
Proceeds from the missile sales were illegally funneled to the Contra rebels, waging a USA and Israeli-backed insurgency against the Sandinista regime in Nicaragua.
00.Oct.1986 A plane carrying arms to the Contras was shot down over Nicaragua + an USA crew member was captured, along with documents and other evidence of the USA covert backing for the rebels.
This began what became the ``Iran-Contra scandal.''
00.000.2001-00.000.2003 -When in- word of the Ledeen-Ghorbanifar – USA Pentagon machinations surfaced, Powell also accused Feith of running an illegal channel to the Iranian regime, undercutting his own sanctioned, but secret diplomacy with Iranian officials in Geneva, Switzerland.
00.Aug.2003 -But as late as- Ledeen and Ghorbanifar were at it again, pressing their allies in Feith's office to open up contacts with the USA occupation forces in Iraq.
This
time, Ghorbanifar
claimed he had Iraqi Shi'ite contacts who could lead USA
weapons inspectors to Iraqi weapons grade nuclear material, which had
been smuggled into Iran.
He claimed that his sources had ``saved USA
lives'' by providing details of Iranian
terror plots against USA
GIs in Afghanistan. When the so-called source insisted on a
$250,000 payoff before he would reveal where the nuclear material was
hidden, the deal fell through. Ledeen
still insists that Ghorbanifar's
information was solid.

01.Sep.2004
Indeed, the very same USA
+ Israeli
+ Iranian
neo-con liars + shady arms dealers who brought you the Ollie North
Irangate
saga, have been caught, engaged in the same dirty dealings, all over
again. Chief among the Iran-Contra
veterans, who are up to their eyeballs in the present Irangate
II caper, is Ledeen,
Michael
the
self-professed
„universal fascist“, who is
also, according to several USA
intelligence
community sources, a prime suspect in the scheme to forge Niger
government documents, purporting that Iraq was seeking uranium
precursor to build nuclear bombs.
A USA Federal grand jury is probing the forgery scheme.
00.Dec.2001 Ledeen first moved to revive the Reagan-Bush era Iran connection, setting up a meeting between two Pentagon civilian neo-cons + Manucher Ghorbanifar, an Iranian arms dealer, whom the CIA denounced as a criminal and a liar. Three days of meetings took place in Rome, involving Harold Rhode, Larry Franklin, Ghorbanifar + two still-unidentified officials of the Iranian regime. According to an Aug. 9, 2003 {Washington Post} account, the Iranians were offering to help the United States in the war on terror. Citing an official Pentagon statement the previous day, the Post reported, ``The first contact, in late 2001, had been formally sanctioned by the USA government in response to an Iranian government offer to provide information relevant to the war on terrorism.'' Rhode and Ledeen go back 20 years, according to Ledeen's own acknowledgements, in a recent book. Both are proteges of leading British intelligence operative Bernard Lewis. And both are also prime boosters of Chalabi.
23.Mar.2003
-Following the USA
invasion of Iraq- Rhode
was dispatched from Washington to Baghdad, to be the contact point
between the Office of Special Plans and the INC chief.
Franklin,
a Defense Intelligence Agency officer, was assigned to the Near
East/South Asia shop at the Pentagon, where he served as the Iran
desk officer, reporting to Bill Luti.

01.Sep.2004
One particularly bizarre item surfaced, as this
particular neo-con group scrambled to defend their longtime Iraqi
asset. Following the raid on Chalabi's
home and offices, two attorneys, John Markham and Colette Goodman,
fired off an angry letter of protest to the Bush
Administration. Goodman, with the international law firm of Shea and
Gardner, is the official registered lobbyist for the INC, according
to papers on file with the Department of Justice. A leading attorney
at Shea and Gardner is R. James Woolsey, the Clinton era CIA
Director, who, as a member of the Bush
Administration's Defense Policy Board, has been one of the biggest
promoters of the urban legend that Saddam Hussein was behind the
Sept. 11, 2001
attacks on Washington and New York. Lawyer John
Markham, a longtime leading member of the overtly Satanic cult known
as the Process Church, was later a Justice Department attorney,
responsible for railroad prosecutions of Lyndon LaRouche. Markham, at
the Boston USA
Attorney's office, was a leading protege of William Weld, the Boston
Brahmin who ran the ``Get LaRouche'' drive + was later defeated by
John Kerry in a bid to enter the USA
Senate. - It Didn't Stop With Iran-Contra

01.Sep.2004
Among the leading candidates to join convicted Israeli
spy Jonathan Jay Pollard in the hoosegow, or at least, in the hall of
shame, are: Assistant Secretary of Defense for Policy Douglas Feith;
Near East South Asia/Office of Special Plans head William Luti; Feith
deputies Harold Rhode,
Abram Shulsky and Michael Rubin; Office of Special Plans staffer Col.
Bill Brunner; and Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz.
All have been known to maintain intimate ties to Chalabi.
Another Irangate
``veteran'' and Chalabi
booster, Elliott Abrams, who was convicted of perjury (and later
pardoned by President George H.W. Bush),
was named the top NSC
official on the Middle East in late 2002, a post he still holds.
The authoritative Republican Party insiders newsletter, {The Big
Picture}, reported on May 24, that, following the raids, an angry
Chalabi
phoned the Pentagon + demanded to speak to his longtime friend and
patron Wolfowitz.
Wolfowitz
refused to take the call. Wolfowitz's
snub mirrored the actions of other neo-cons,
who are desperately clinging to their positions in the corridors of
power at the Defense Department + the Office of the Vice President -
+ are, therefore, anxious to cleanse themselves of links to the now
thoroughly discredited Chalabi.
Even Mark Zell, the longtime law partner of Doug Feith, announced his break with Chalabi, accusing the INC chief of reneging on his vow to seize power in Baghdad, recognize the government of Israel, and reopen the oil pipeline between the Iraqi fields and the Israeli port of Haifa. Following the USA invasion and occupation of Iraq, Zell, a West Bank-based lawyer, had formed a Baghdad business partnership with Salem Chalabi, Ahmed's nephew and business front man, which reportedly arranged contracts for Israeli security firms for postwar ``reconstruction'' and security missions in ``liberated Iraq.'' Several well-placed USA + Israeli sources have claimed that the Chalabi-Zell firm arranged subcontracts, that allowed as many as 50 Israeli interrogators to work in Iraq. In January 2004, ``Jack'' London, the CEO of CACI--a northern Virginia-based company that provided interrogators at Abu Ghraib prison--traveled to Israel on a business junket, to drum up joint-venture business with Israeli security firms. According to a former top USA national security official, both CACI and Titan, the two USA firms implicated in the Abu Ghraib torture scandal, have had longstanding business dealings with Israeli high-tech companies. The Feith and Zell international law firm recently established a Washington-based front, FIST, dedicated to pairing up Israeli + USA high-tech companies for joint venture contracts on homeland security and Defense Department outsourcing. Other neo-cons outside of government, including Michael Ledeen, Richard Perle, Kenneth Timmerman and Laurie Mylroie, are equally hysterical, defending Chalabi, and even touting his work with the Iranians as being in the interests of the United States.

Hartz-IV-Protest - SPD-Spitze fürchtet
Zerreißprobe für Deutschland
Die Wut im Osten wächst,
radikale Parteien legen in den Umfragen zu, im Westen lässt der
Solidargedanke nach. Im Streit über die Sozialreformen zerfasert
das, was eigentlich zusammengehört.
Zahlreiche Regierungspolitiker warnen vor einer Eskalation, die eine neue politische Spaltung Deutschlands nach sich ziehen könnte.
01.Sep.2004
Berlin - Der nordrhein-westfälische
Ministerpräsident Peer Steinbrück warb an die Ostdeutschen
gerichtet um Verständnis dafür, dass es auch im Westen
Regionen mit sozialen Problemen gibt. Viele Kommunen in seinem
Bundesland seien zum Teil auch wegen der Finanzleistungen für
den Osten verschuldet.
Auch NRW-SPD-Chef Harald Schartau schlägt
in diese Kerbe. Er warnt vor schwer wiegenden Risiken der Tiraden im
Osten. Die Menschen dort sollten die Lage nicht weiter eskalieren
lassen, mahnte er die Ostgenossen im SPD-Präsidium diese Woche.
Auch im Westen sei die Stimmung inzwischen explosiv.

New York - Mehr als 5000 Radler hatten sich nach
offiziellen Angaben an der Demo beteiligt. Sie verlangten im
Sprechchor ein Ende der Bush-Regierung
und versuchten, mit Autofahrern ins Gespräch zu kommen. 250
Teilnehmer nahm die Polizei am Freitagabend (Ortszeit) fest.
New
Yorks stellvertretender Polizeikommissar Paul Browne begründete
die Festnahmen mit Ruhestörung und der massiven
Verkehrsbehinderung durch die Demonstranten. Sie seien mehrfach
gewarnt worden, hätten aber nicht darauf reagiert, erklärte
Browne. Dagegen nannten Teilnehmer die Demo friedlich und das
Vorgehen der Polizei absolut unnötig.
Bereits am Donnerstag
hatte die Polizei 22 Demonstranten beim Protest gegen die regierenden
Republikaner abgeführt. Das allein war das Dreifache aller
Festnahmen, die die Polizei in Boston während des Parteitages
der Demokraten von Bushs Herausforderer John Kerry vorgenommen hatte,
berichtete die "New York Times" am Samstag
01.Sep.2004
18 Vor dem Wahlparteitag
Hunderte Bush-Gegner
festgenommen
Der Wahlparteitag der Republikaner in New York
beginnt zwar erst in zwei Tagen. Aber die Polizei ist sichtbar
nervös: Sie verhaftete bereits zahlreiche Bush-Gegner
- unter ihnen die Teilnehmer einer Fahrraddemonstration.

White House spokesman Scott McClellan said President Bush had been briefed on the attack.
"We USA condemn these kind of terrorist attacks in the strongest possible terms. There's simply no justification for the killing of innocent civilians," McClellan said.
The State Department said Hamas must be put out of business. Spokesman Richard Boucher said action, not words, was needed as he again denounced Hamas as a terrorist organization. Unlike after some previous attacks, he did not call on Israel to be restrained in its response.

Featuring
Ted Galen Carpenter, Vice President for Defense and Foreign Policy
Studies, Cato Institute. The USA must take a sober look at its
interests and its commitments in the Taiwan dispute.
There is a growing possibility that China will someday attempt to forcibly reincorporate Taiwan if the Taiwanese do not agree to reunification voluntarily.
USA Washington has made an implicit pledge to defend the island.
This commitment puts the USA at the mercy of decisions made in Taipei + Beijing + is likely to result in nothing but bad options for the USA down the road.

Protesters in oversize Bush [BGW968] masks + wild costumes harassed convention-goers as they left their hotels.
"Corporate orgy in Iraq (news - web sites)," they chanted, a reference to accusations that firms friendly to the White House are making money on reconstruction contracts there.
Outside the Plaza Hotel, protesters in pink wigs stood at the door with plastic cups of champagne, toasting "to tax cuts and the rich" as the conventioneers walked out.
Police formed lines between the protesters, some of whom wore giant papier-mache masks of Bush [BGW968], Vice President Dick Cheney (news - web sites) + National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice (news - web sites).
The group that organized Sunday's enormous demonstration, United for Peace and Justice, found its headquarters a target of protest on Monday — by pro-Bush [BGW968] demonstrators from a group called ProtestWarrior.
About 15 members, chanting "Four more years!" + "U SA ! U SA !", targeted the anti-Bush [BGW968] group.

after 9/11, he went to New York + proclaimed, "those who aren't
with us are against us." Until he ordered those forces to attack
Afghanistan on Oct. 7, it wasn't clear what he would do to avenge the
3,000 people who lost their lives.
One reason for the Oct. 7
attack could have been that the reclusive Taliban had just signed
accords with China for developmental projects, as reported by John
Pomfret in the Washington Post. Bush
[BGW968] had only been in office for less than nine
months and was inclined toward the "China threat."
According
to neo-con theory, China should have disintegrated some time in the
1990s, following the Soviet Union. But already on 9/11 it was clear
to the Washington think-tank analysts that China was getting stronger
and stronger. That meant China could sooner or later catch up with
and or even surpass America.
Fear once again triumphed over
faith. And the USA
empire once again expanded outward as if that would abate the fears
that were growing among Americans.
As
to democracies, the future is not bright.
