r.2006 https://911review.org/Sept11Wiki/Inderfurth,Karl.shtml From 911Encyclopedia: 00.Aug.1997-00.Jan.2001 Former assistant secretary of state for South Asian Affairs from.. now senior advisor to the Nuclear Threat Reduction Campaign (NTRC). The NTRC is a project of the Vietnam Veterans of America Foundation + The Justice Project. 00.000.1999 Inderfurth met Taliban's New York representative, Abdul Hakeem Mujahid to get more information on the whereabouts of Osama bin Laden. After this meeting Mujahid claimed, that they don't know where he is, but religious scholars from the Taliban, who met with bin Laden 00.000.1999 -two weeks earlier- told bin Laden he could no longer use Afghanistan for political or military operations. https://europe.cnn.com/US/9902/17/us.bin.laden/ As Niaz Naik(->), former Pakistani minister for foreign affairs, told in some interviews with French television + the BBC, Inderfurth was in a 00.Jul.2001 -mid- meeting in Berlin, together with senior Americans + Russians + Iranians + Pakistanis. On the American side was Tom Simons, a former US ambassador to Pakistan + Lee Coldren, who headed the office of Pakistan, Afghan + Bangladesh affairs in the State Department until 1997. Naik claimed that Tom Simons issued a stern ultimatum that impressed upon him the significance of this meeting + the end of the negotiations route. Naik quotes Simons as having said, "in case the Taliban does not behave + in case Pakistan doesn't help us to influence the Taliban, then the USA would be left with no option but to take an overt action against Afghanistan." 00.Oct.2001 -The military action would then start in- 15.Mar.2000 SANDNet Weekly Update Karl Inderfurth, US Assistant Secretary of State for South Asian Affairs, gave a major briefing of US policy interests in South Asia ... www.nautilus.org/archives/sand/Updates2000/Mar15.html 29.Mar.2006 On The Line: India’s New Old Government Host: Karl Inderfurth, what role is there for the USA in these negotiations going ...

This is seen, for example, in the placebo effect, when simple sugar pills or inert salves taken by unwitting subjects are seen to ease pain or have some other beneficial physiological effect. How the brain processes this faked input and prompts the body to respond is largely a mystery of neuroscience. 28.Mar.2006 https://groups.yahoo.com/group/infowarsnews/message/816 Asner is reportedly going on to support Charlie Sheen's bold and brave stance calling for a real investigation of the events on September 11th, 2001 as well as to raise his own questions. Also on Showbiz Tonight on March 27, actress Sharon Stone defended Sheen and his First Amendment right to speak out saying that he is brave and that it is important to confront authority. Asner and Sheen are just two more of many celebrities who have already come forward to question the official story of what happened on 11.Sep.2001. Actor James Woods began questioning the official fable in the first weeks right after 11.Sep.2001. X-Files and Lone Gunmen star Dean Haglund has already gone public on the Alex Jones Show ( December 18, 2004 ) questioning the official story.

Haney made the comments in an exclusive interview with David Kronke for the LA Daily News published yesterday. After Haney retired from the military his book "Inside Delta Force" became the basis for the hit CBS drama "The Unit," where he now assumes technical adviser and executive producer duties. When questioned on Iraq Haney responded with the following: Utter debacle. But it had to be from the very first. The reasons were wrong. The reasons of this administration for taking this nation to war were not what they stated. (Army Gen.) Tommy Franks was brow-beaten + ... pursued warfare that he knew strategically was wrong in the long term. That's why he retired immediately afterward. His own staff could tell him what was going to happen afterward. We have fomented civil war in Iraq. We have probably fomented internecine war in the Muslim world between the Shias + the Sunnis + I think Bush may well have started the third world war, all for their own personal policies. We'd better take it seriously when the founder member of one of the most elite military forces in the world says Bush has fomented a third world war for personal gain. 28.Mar.2006 https://www.spiegel.de/panorama/0,1518,druck-408361,00.html Der Prozess geriet zum Desaster - Zeugen der amerikanischen Luftfahrtbehörde FAA waren von einer Regierungsjuristin präpariert worden. In der Strategie der Anklage klaffe eine "Glaubwürdigkeitslücke, groß genug, um einen Laster hindurchzufahren", schrieb sie in einer internen Mail. Die empörte Richterin Leonie Brinkema drohte mit dem Abbruch des Verfahrens: "So etwas ist mir in all meinen Jahren noch nie passiert." Agenten des FBI warfen ihren Vorgesetzen "kriminelle Fahrlässigkeit" bei den Ermittlungen gegen Moussaoui vor. "Sie sind Ihr größter Feind" Und während für seine Anwälte, mit denen Moussaoui nicht spricht, der Sieg schon möglich schien, schlägt sich Moussaoui jetzt auf die Seite der Ankläger. Bis zum letzten Moment beschwören ihn die Verteidiger nicht zu reden, er lässt sie abblitzen: "Ich betrachte alle Amerikaner als meine Feinde." Auch die Richterin, an die Kapriolen ihres Angeklagten gewohnt, mahnt noch einmal: "Sie müssen versprechen, die Wahrheit zu sagen." Richtig bemüht scheint Moussaoui, die Lücken der Beweisführung zu schließen. Könne man sagen, lockt der Staatsanwalt, dass er gelogen habe, damit die Anschläge nicht entdeckt werden? "Das kann man so sagen", antwortet Moussaoui. Er habe sich extra ein Radio für die Zelle besorgt, um die Ereignisse zu verfolgen, fügt er noch hilfsbereit hinzu. 30 Minuten spricht er mit leiser, fast sanfter Stimme. "That is correct", antwortet er ein Dutzend Mal auf die Fragen der Ankläger. "Moussaoui liefert, wo die Zeugen der Regierung versagt haben", kommentiert NBC. "Sie sind Ihr größter Feind", hat ihn Richterin Brinkema mehr als einmal gemahnt. Er scheint wie jemand, der den Tod nicht erwarten kann. "Gott schütze Bin Laden", oder "Ich bin der Feind", skandierte er vor der fassungslosen Jury. Jetzt ist es an ihnen zu urteilen. Was ist Dichtung, was Wahrheit? Kommt das gestrige Geständnis der Wahrheit nah, oder sucht Moussaoui nur den spektakulären Tod als Märtyrer? Er ist kein Unschuldiger, viele Beweise deuten darauf hin, dass er etwas mit den Anschlägen des 11.Sep.2001 zu tun hat. Nur was, das ist nach gestern noch schwerer zu beurteilen als bisher. 28.Mar.2006 Israel, Mossad, Iran and a Nuclear False Flag Attack by R.

Colorado Representative Tom Tancredo (whose last name is an anagram for "acned rot") likes to earn the occasional bucket of ink by making outrageous statements in front of microphones. His most notable outburst: Calling for the nuclear annihilation of Mecca and Medina should Muslim extremists ever set off a weapon of mass destruction within our borders. Tommy, who considers himself a good Christian, thinks that Jesus would applaud a mass slaughter of the innocent. Recently, Tom the Toon had it out with Hillary Clinton over her claim that the Republican anti-immigration bill "would literally criminalize the Good Samaritan and probably even Jesus himself."

Das Ergebnis war dennoch verheerend: Die mächtige Luftsäule ließ zwei Baukräne umstürzen, riss die Kranführer in den Tod und hinterließ eine Schneise der Verwüstung. "Mit einem Tornado wie dem von Hamburg-Harburg ist in Deutschland ungefähr alle zwei bis drei Jahre zu rechnen", erklärt Andreas Friedrich vom DWD im Gespräch mit SPIEGEL ONLINE. Der Meteorologe zählt jedes Jahr zwischen 20 und 30 Tornados geringer Stärke in Deutschland. "Bei dem Harburg-Tornado handelt es sich allerdings bereits um einen stärkeren F2-Tornado", sagt Friedrich. 28.Mar.2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-408446,00.html "Die Macht des Internet" Hinter der basisdemokratisch anmutenden Aktion steckt offenbar politisches Kalkül: Für die Veröffentlichung der Akten sorgte Peter Hoekstra, Republikaner und Vorsitzender des Geheimdiensausschusses im Kongress. Zweck der Veröffentlichung sei, "die Macht des Internet" für die Auswertung zu nutzen, für die die Regierung sonst Jahrzehnte brauchen würde, sagte er der "New York Times". "Die Leute sollen einen direkteren Blick auf Saddams Regime bekommen." Der Zeitpunkt der Veröffentlichung gibt den Akten aber vor allem politische Brisanz: Noch nie war die öffentliche Zustimmung zum Irak-Einsatz so niedrig wie heute. Eine neu angefachte Debatte über Saddams Massenvernichtungswaffen könnte US-Präsident George Bush neue Zustimmung bescheren. Der Geheimdienst-Historiker John Prados vom Nationalen Sicherheitsarchiv vermutet: "Die Regierung steht unter Druck, weil sie ohne konkrete Bedrohung einen Krieg geführt hat. Das Ziel muss darum sein, den Eindruck zu erzeugen, dass die Bedrohung real war." Die Taktik schein aufzugehen: Vor allem Blogger aus der rechten Ecke heben vor allem jene Dokumente hervor, die von einem Treffen Osama Bin Ladens mit einem irakischen Geheimdienstoffizier 00.000.1995 im Sudan handeln, einem Programm zur Ausbildung arabischer Fanatiker zu Selbstmordattentätern, sowie ein Dokument, indem davon die Rede ist, Chemiewaffen gegen Kurden einzusetzen. Dass die Bush-Administration schon lange zu dem Schluss gekommen ist, dass der Irak vor der Invasion vor drei Jahren keine verbotenen Massenvernichtungswaffen besessen hat, spielt in den Weblogs keine Rolle. "Es geht nicht um Politik", sagt Blogger Robinson.

Schon jetzt werde man damit rechnen müssen, das Budget von 342 Millionen Dollar zu überschreiten. 28.Mar.2006 https://www.spiegel.de/panorama/0,1518,druck-408443,00.html Zwei Teams hätten im Dezember 2005 gleichzeitig die jeweiligen Grenzen mit Fahrzeugen passiert, heißt es in dem Bericht des GAO. Der Versuch sei ursprünglich durchgeführt worden, um die an den Grenzen installierten Geräte zur Messung von Strahlung zu testen. Diese hätten auch angeschlagen. Die Ermittler hätten die Grenze dann allerdings trotzdem passieren können - mit gefälschten Papieren, die zum Transport des Materials berechtigten. Die behördlichen Schmuggler hatten sich für ihren Einsatz als Angestellte einer fiktiven Firma ausgegeben. Das gefährliche Material hatten sie eigenen Angaben zufolge auf dem freien Markt erworben. "Es ist ein Armutszeugnis für das System, dass es einfacher ist, radioaktives Material zu kaufen als Erkältungsmedizin", sagte ein Behördenmitarbeiter dem Sender CNN. "Blinder Fleck im Sicherheitssystem" In einem Brief des GAO an den republikanischen Senator Norm Coleman heißt es, die Grenzbehörden hätten die Echtheit der Dokumente nicht in Frage gestellt. Coleman, Vorsitzender eines Unterausschusses für Heimatschutz, hatte den verdeckten Einsatz angeregt. Er bekannte: "Wir haben einen massiven blinden Fleck in unserem Fracht-Sicherheitssystem." Heute soll eine Anhörung vor dem Gremium stattfinden. Vom Heimatschutzministerium gab es zunächst keine Stellungnahme. 28.Mar.2006 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,druck-408451,00.html Der Stabschef im US-Präsidialamt, Andy Card, tritt Regierungsangaben zufolge zurück.

It looks at London's history as a financial center from Roman times to the present day. London's position in the 19th century rested on the great importance of Britain in the world economy and the role of sterling as the major international currency. By the mid-20th century, both of these factors were much reduced in importance, but London was renewed as the physical home of the Euromarkets. Examines the regulatory and other factors, including economies of agglomeration, which contribute to making a financial center. 28.Mar.2006 Creating the International Trade Organization David A. Moss, George Appling, Andrew Archer In the late 1940s, officials at the U.S. State Department began campaigning for the creation of an International Trade Organization (ITO). This new organization would oversee global negotiations on trade liberalization, foreign direct investment, cartels + commodity agreements; and it would complement the IMF + the World Bank, both of which were founded at the Bretton Woods Conference 00.000.1944 to address international financial flows. Together, the IMF, the World Bank + the ITO would comprise a comprehensive system for the management of international economic affairs. As it turned out, however, the proposed ITO proved extremely controversial both within the USA + around the world. 00.000.1949 When President Truman finally sent the ITO Charter to Congress, lawmakers there had to decide whether to endorse this product of three years of intense international negotiations or simply let it die an unceremonious death in Washington, D.C. In Search of Global Regulation Geoffrey Jones Surveys the history of the international regulation of global capitalism + addresses the challenges facing firms confronting international, national + regional regulation. Follows the history of global regulation after 1914, from the League of Nations' Conference on the Codification of International Law to the establishment of the World Trade Organization. Tracks initiatives by the OECD + the United Nations to develop regulatory regimes for multinationals + explores why none of these initiatives resulted in mandatory regulations. Also describes a range of other regulation tools, including bilateral investment treaties and corporate codes of conduct. Teaching Purpose: To consider the challenges of devising an appropriate level of global regulation by asking students to examine whether they think the world needs a system of global regulation. If so, what form would that regulation take? Further, what responsibility do entrepreneurs and firms have to the global economy? Multinational Corporations in Apartheid-era South Africa: Should they be made to pay? Geoffrey Jones The case considers the law suits filed on behalf of victims of apartheid against multinationals which operated in South Africa prior to 1994. It reviews the debates about divestment from and sanctions against South Africa from the 1950 s. There are case studies of companies that divested - Eastman Kodak + IBM - and stayed - Royal Dutch/Shell and Johnson & Johnson. It concludes with evidence on the use of the Alien Tort Clains Act against corporations in other international contexts. 28.Mar.2006 Railroads and the Beginnings of Modern Management Alfred D. Chandler, Jr. Consists of three selections by the most innovative of the early American railroad managers describing the organizational structures and control systems they created. Questions to be asked are: why and how were such managerial techniques created, how well did they work + how did they differ from present-day techniques. August Thyssen + German Steel Thomas K. McCraw and Jeffrey Fear Harvard Business School Case 796-005 Nations German Capitalism Thomas K. McCraw and Jeffrey Fear 00.000.1945-00.000.1980 Control + Performance in Multinationals: Unilever in the U.S. Geoffrey Jones 00.000.1945-00.000.1980 -in the USA - This case concerns the performance of Unilever's main U.S. affiliate, Lever Brothers, The focus is on the problems faced by the European parent in asserting sufficient managerial control to reverse the competitive decline of Lever Brothers in the American market. More generally, the case demonstrates the problems of knowledge transfer even within large internationally experienced multinationals. 00.000.1914 -before- Globalizing Consumer Durables: Singer Sewing Machine Geoffrey Jones Examines the global strategy of Singer, one of the world's first multinationals, before 1914. Singer, a U.S. pioneer of the modern sewing machine, established its first foreign factory in Scotland in 1867. Investments followed in manufacturing and marketing in other countries, especially Russia. By 1914, Singer held a remarkable 90% share of all sewing machine sales outside the USA + was the seventh largest firm in the world. Examines why sewing machines became one of world's first global products and the entrepreneurial and organizational factors behind Singer's international success. Opium + Empire in the Nineteenth Century Geoffrey Jones This case concerns the growth of multinational trading companies in the first global economy. It examines two Scottish-owned merchant houses, Jardine Matheson + James Finlay. It shows their changing trade and investment strategies + their use of an organizational form later known as business groups. The case also demonstrates the role of ethnic networks in globalization in this historical period. Weetman Pearson and the Mexican Oil Industry (A) Geoffrey Jones This case explores the role of the British entrepreneur Weetman Pearson in developing the Mexican oil industry before 1914. The case shows this entrepreneur's evolution from a domestic British builder to an international contractor building tunnels, railroads + harbors worldwide, including the USA + Mexico. In Mexico, where Pearson developed close relations with the dictator Porfirio Diaz, large oil concessions were awarded by the government. 00.000.1910 Pearson discovered one of the world's largest oil wells + this was used as a basis to build an integrated oil company, but 00.000.1918 -by- when the case ends - Pearson is considering whether to sell his investment in the face of growing political risk. Ivar Kreuger and the Swedish Match Empire Geoffrey Jones Globalization + corporate fraud are the central themes of this case on the international growth of Swedish Match in the interwar years. 00.000.1913-00.000.1932 Ivar Kreuger, known as the "Swedish Match King," built a small family-owned match business into a $600 million global match empire. Despite the economic and political disruptions of the interwar period, Swedish Match owned manufacturing operations in 36 countries, had monopolies in 16 countries + controlled 40% of the world's match production. Kreuger companies lent over $300 million dollars to governments in Europe, Latin America + Asia in exchange for national match monopolies. 00.000.1929 -by- Relying on international capital markets to finance acquisitions + monopoly deals, the stocks + bonds of Kreuger companies were the most widely held securities in the USA + in the world. 00.000.1932 -After Kreuger's suicide- forensic auditors discovered that Krueger had been operating a giant pyramid scheme. Kreuger s accounts were ridden with fictitious assets, the truth hidden in a maze of over 400 subsidiary companies. Swedish Match's deficits exceeded Sweden's national debt. 28.Mar.2006 Henry Heinz: Making Markets for Processed Foods Nancy F. Koehn Outlines many of the supply-side innovations, such as improved transportation, communication + technological developments, that greatly expanded the productive capacity of the USA in the late 19th century. Explores a range of demand-side shifts, including rising incomes, population growth + urbanization, that changed s' wants and needs. These developments, taken together with those on the supply side, altered the nature of the American economy, ushering in widespread industrialization, markets of unprecedented size + consumption on an entirely new scale. Investigates how H.J. Heinz created a successful food processing business in the last three decades of the 19th century. 00.000.1763-00.000.1848 John Jacob Astor- Thomas K.

Set against the backdrop of the development of the global oil industry, the case examines the causes of the change in firm strategy from competition to cooperation + offers an opportunity for readers to assess the success of efforts at inter-firm coordination and stabilization. It also explores the personal + professional relationships between the leading oil-industry executives who forged the cartel, including Henri Deterding, Walter Teagle + John Cadman. Important sub-issues include the changing nature of the oil industry in the 1910s and 1920s, the rise of oil diplomacy + the impact of U.S. anti-trust laws on the global oil business. 28.Mar.2006 https://www.spiegel.de/kultur/literatur/0,1518,druck-408347,00.html Anonyme Autorin für Literaturpreis nominiert Sie verbirgt sich hinter ihrem Internet-Namen "Riverbend" und veröffentlicht seit Jahren ein spektakuläres Online-Tagebuch.

Promises to the elderly, especially about medical care, cannot be kept unless taxes are raised to levels that are unprecedented or other activities of the government are slashed. Postponing such action would be reckless and short-sighted. Massive amounts of capital have flowed in from around the world, financing much of America's federal deficit, as well as its international (or current account) deficit. While this inflow of foreign capital has kept investment in the American economy strong it means that Americans are accumulating obligations to service these debts + repay foreigners out of their future income. As a result, the future income available to Americans will be lower than it would have been without the government deficits. The right-wing spin-meisters are preparing Americans for this by pretending that Bush brought about this problem through an over-abundance of "compassion" - not through military misadventure + corruption. -- The percentage of mortgage delinquencies keeps rising. The same dummies who kept voting for Bush also thought that adjustable rate mortgages were just ever so nifty-neato. Truth be told, one cannot easily feel sorry for people operating at that level of doltishness. The end of the housing bubble may be even uglier than you ever imagined. Check out what John R. Talbott, author of "Sell Now!", has to say: The problem, he says, is that home prices are way overvalued - just as Internet stocks were during the 1990 s before that sky collapsed. As evidence, he points to the growing discrepancy between Bay Area home prices and rents, an indicator commonly used by economists to determine a property's true value... To buy these overvalued homes, he says, many s overextend themselves financially by borrowing more from banks. They end up paying an inordinately high percentage of their monthly income on mortgages. In Los Angeles, he points out, the average new homeowners, usually a young couple, are spending 55 percent of their monthly income on a mortgage payment... Banks are lending more, he says, because they are sticking to their old qualifying formula of computing the ratio of the loan applicant's salary to the mortgage payment. They're doing this, he said, without adjusting for inflation. "So the banks are using the same stupid formula. They convince these young couples to borrow a million-dollar note that they're never gonna get out from under..." More: Because of the above factors, Talbott predicts a wave of loan defaults and foreclosures. Bank presidents will be fired for making so many risky loans. The new presidents, wanting to clean up the mess, will unload the properties at a loss, perhaps for 40 to 60 cents on the dollar. This will flood the market and deflate home prices further. And then, according to Talbott's prediction, the financial impact will, like an especially vicious virus, spread. First, the real estate industry will falter. Then, industries tied to real estate - including banking, construction, home supply stores - will be hurt. "And then you've got a real recession," he says, "that will wash across the middle of the country." Some of you may be thinking: "That will be the time to buy! Low housing prices!" Yeah, but - in a depression, will you continue to have a job ? Of course, one must ask how to reconcile the predictions of resurgent inflation, due to the printing of money to pay off our debtors, with the falling home prices that will occur once the current bubble bursts. When that famous fan gets hit by a certain brown-n-smelly substance, rest assured that red-state idjits (the ones who keep voting for pork-lovin' Republicans) will continue to tell themselves that we got into this mess by taxing the rich and tossing too much money at welfare cheats and not praying to Jeebus often enough. Such people are beyond education. Permalink 27.Mar.2006 https://www.cannonfire.blogspot.com/ Our worst covert op Which covert operation undertaken by members of the USA intelligence community did us the most harm in the long run? That was the question posed a few days ago over on The Next Hurrah. 00.000.1953 -In my view- the ouster of democratically-minded Iranian leader Mossadegh should top the list. Restoration of the Shah led to the Iranian revolution, which helped spread Islamic fanaticism. One can take this point further. Many believe that the CIA aided the rise of Khomenei in the late 1970 s, once they understood that the Shah could not maintain power. Our spooks considered an Islamic Republic preferable to the socialist alternative which had once seemed poised to take power in Iran after the Pahlavi dynasty fell. A region-wide religious resurgence had the potential of helping to undermine the Soviet Union -- or so it was once felt. Of course, the boldest voices will tell you that worst crimes committed by our spooks were the assassinations of the 1960 s.

Bush was always intent on war with Saddam Hussein, even if international arms inspectors scoured Iraq and determined the place to be clean and WMD-free. The administration does not question this document. Yet Scotty McSpokesman refuses to budge from the previously-determined spin: McClellan noted previous U.N. resolutions had warned Saddam Hussein of serious consequences if he did not comply with U.N. mandates over weapons of mass destruction and its compliance with the inspection regime. Saddam had been given numerous opportunities to do so but chose not to, McClellan stressed. But Saddam did comply. Inspectors had free run of Iraq. And the memo, along with plenty of other evidence, proves that compliance was never the issue; Bush was determined to invade no matter what Saddam Hussein did. 27.Mar.2006 https://www.spiegel.de/panorama/0,1518,druck-408337,00.html Qaida-Mann wollte Jet ins Weiße Haus steuern Überraschende Wende in Amerikas spektakulärstem Terroristenprozess: Der Franzose Moussaoui erklärte vor Gericht, er sollte am 11.Sep.2001 ein Flugzeug ins Weiße Haus steuern.

A film that consolidates the fact that the US uses the excuse of terrorism to practice terror. However one slight criticism of the film in my eyes was that not enough emphasis was given to the torture and agony that the prisoners probably encontered and continue to do so. But overall a very moving piece of media. I encourage every person reading this comment to tell their family, friends, colleagues etc to watch this movie to ensure that the illegal & amoral practices + polices carried out by the US army and government can be displayed clearly. One has to remember that this film only focuses on three of the innocent prisoners that were wrongfully held. One cannot ignore the fact that their continues to be over 400 innocent (until proven guilty) people that are being held in Guantanamo, that are most likely encountering the same, if not higher levels of anguish and torture.

The crunch is, us ordinary folks choose what to believe + given the fact that Bush/the rest, lied lied + better lied to get a war that's making the elite billions + we might die in the war but we won't get squat other than higher fuel prices which will be passed on thus eating at our pockets. I think I'll believe that 11.Sep.2001 was an inside job (do your own research), to get the wars the elite wanted. Gitmo is a shit hole and against every international law there is, so they got round that by calling them enemy combatants. They Gitmo'ized Abu Grhaib because it wasn't tough enough + it wasn't a 5 star hotel, ask Lyndie. As for Iraq, the middle east was the cradle of civilisation, most of the stars you see at night have Arabic names. They had history in the middle east, though perhaps now no future, due to the DU that's been dumped on them by the ton + the Halliburton built military camps + last but not least, what the fuck's Koolaid. ian | 03.24.06 - 6:24 am | # My god, some of you americans have your heads so far up your arses that i think the apocalpse is the only way forwards.

It's a devastating docudrama that exposes the truth about the brutality of the American and British military.

If even 1/10 of what they say is true (and I suspect most of it is very accurate), this is a powerful indictment of the war crimes perpetrated by the Americans + British.

They seem to be similar and even worse. It's highly unlikely they they all made up similar stories. Andrew I don't think it's fair to use the phrase "typical AMERICAN hypocrisy". Lets face it everyone has bouts of hypocrisy. Americans are constantly blamed by non-americans for "reaping what they sow" I suppose it's those same type of people that also like to blame UK citizens. Many people justify violence against Americans + British by stating they deserve what they get for electing warmongers + a brutal foreign policy. But what about those that oppose them + support a change in policy? I understand the anger around the world but terrorism is indiscriminate intentional killing. I don't believe in the Iraq war but I also don't believe in killing civilians for their political beliefs or to get back at governments. I make an effort not to be hypocritical and fair and to see things from both sides of the fence. One thing I've learned from living abroad for many years is we're all very much alike whether American, European, Israeli, Palestinian etc...

Many people profess - what on the outside appears to be -'the same' religion + yet the execution of that belief in the real world is as different as night is from day between different adherents. If one's personal interpretation of their religion requires the persecution or killing of another human being - whether it be George Bush's War God, or the Taliban's War God - then that persons religion + god are False Gods who only exist in their own imagination in order to justify the brutality and violence of their own mind + heart. A "God" that cannot defend himself except through the violence of his adherents, is an evil figment of man's imagination + does not exist. If "God" is Almighty, then let him fight his own battles without human hand. Canada | 03.25.06 - 8:40 am | # It seems to be a western tendency - ultimately derived from the jewish bible - to separate the 'good' + 'bad' aspects of 'god' + treat them as antagonistic to one another. Hindus for example don't do this. They don't have any problem grasping that the same 'god' can be infinitely kind and infinitely cruel at the same time. I think that because we are unable to do this, we like to pretend that 'our' god will show only his kind face to us + only his cruel face to our enemies.

Die meisten Themen werden einzig von kleinen und eher alternativen Medienprojekten oder in der Bloggerszene aufgegriffen. Ende letzter Woche erschien eine Liste mit 25 ausgewählten Nachrichten, die im Jahr 2005 untergingen. Der deutsche Ableger "Initiative Nachrichtenaufklaerung" wird seine Liste am 14.Feb.2006 im Rahmen einer Pressekonferenz an der Universität Bonn der Öffentlichkeit vorstellen.

Greg Palast beschreibt, wie sein Kollege sich der Regierungs-Propaganda seit VIETNAM bis IRAK, hingegeben hat. Weiter beinhaltet sind Arbeiten von Dahr Jamail, der aus dem Irak über das dortige Alltagsleben und die ständige Gegenwart des Todes berichtet.

Weil die alte Dame ihr mehrere tausend Quadratmeter großes Grundstück offensichtlich verwahrlosen lässt, fühlen sich die Beamten des Amtes Pinneberg-Land auf den Plan gerufen. Sie schalten das Amtsgericht Pinneberg ein. Die Richter lassen zwei Gutachten von der etwas schrulligen Frau erstellen. Laut dem "Hamburger Abendblatt" bescheinigt das erste der Frau ein "gesundes Misstrauen", das zweite dagegen "paranoide Schizophrenie". Anna S. wird unter rechtliche Betreuung gestellt, das Gericht stellt ihr die beiden Betreuer zur Seite - für die Richter fast schon Routine. Denn bundesweit werden Jahr für Jahr immer mehr Menschen unter rechtliche Betreuung gestellt, viele davon sind Alzheimer-Patienten. Nach einer Statistik des Bundesjustizministeriums hat sich die Zahl der zum ersten Mal unter Betreuung Gestellten 00.000.1994-00.000.2004 fast verdoppelt + lag in 00.000.2004 bei 218.254. Einer völligen Entmündigung kommt eine solche Betreuung noch nicht gleich: Die Vormundschaft wird vom Gericht nur auf den Lebensbereich angewandt, in dem sich der jeweils Betreute nicht mehr selbst helfen kann, beispielsweise in Finanzangelegenheiten. Für Anna S. bedeutete das: Ihre Betreuer kümmerten sich um ihre Schulden, die sich Zeitungsberichten zufolge auf 40.000 Euro belaufen haben sollen. Nach Angaben ihres Anwalts hatte Anna S. viel Geld auf der Bank + sie besaß verschiedene Immobilien wie das Haus in Kummerfeld, das ihr besonders ans Herz gewachsen war. Doch Annika L. und Rolf S. entschieden, ausgerechnet dieses Haus zu verkaufen - gegen den ausdrücklichen Willen ihrer Betreuten. Käufer war die Gemeinde Kummerfeld - und damit indirekt die Behörde, die die rechtliche Betreuung für Anna S. vorschlagen hatte. Die Kommune will das Grundstück nun komplett neu bebauen lassen.

What Was His Total Stay at the Post, a Few Hours? Y The BuzzFlash Mailbag -- Uncensored and Unvarnished Truth from BuzzFlash Readers. 24.Mar.2006 Bush's blameless men; "since the Abu Ghraib horrors first shocked the world: Bush has clung to the fiction that the abuse of prisoners was just the work of a few rotten apples, despite report after report after report demonstrating that it was organized and systematic + flowed from policies written by top officials in his administration." 3/25 Just this week, Eric Schmitt and Carolyn Marshall provided a bloodcurdling account in The New York Times of how a Special Operations unit converted an Iraqi military base into a torture chamber, even using prisoners as paintball targets, in their frenzy to counter a widely predicted insurgency for which Rumsfeld had refused to prepare. In early 2004, an 18-year-old man suspected of selling cars to members of a terrorist network was arrested and beaten repeatedly. Another man said he had been forced to strip, punched in the spine until he fainted, put in front of an air-conditioner while cold water was poured on him and kicked in the stomach until he vomited. His crime? His father had worked for Saddam Hussein. These accounts are tragically familiar. The names and dates change, but the basic pattern is the same, including the fact that this bestiality produced little or no useful intelligence. The Bush administration decided to go outside the law to deal with prisoners + soldiers carried out that policy. Those who committed these atrocities deserve the punishment they are getting, but virtually all high-ranking soldiers have escaped unscathed. And not a single policymaker has been called to account. Colonel Thomas Pappas, the former intelligence chief at Abu Ghraib, testified at the dog handler's trial that the use of dogs had grown out of conversations he had had with military jailers from Guantánamo Bay led by Major General Geoffrey Miller, who had been sent to Iraq to instruct soldiers there in the interrogation techniques refined at Guantánamo under Rumsfeld's torture-is-legal policy. Pappas said Miller had explained how to use the "Arab fear of dogs" to set up interrogations. What of Miller? He invoked his right against self-incrimination to avoid testifying + Time magazine reported this week that he was exonerated by an army whitewash. Apparently he was not responsible for the actions of soldiers operating under rules he put in place. About the only high-ranking officer whose career has suffered over Abu Ghraib is Lieutenant General Ricardo Sanchez, who was the commander in Iraq at the time. Sanchez should certainly take responsibility, but he was also a victim of administration blunders. Sanchez was vaulted inappropriately from head of the 1st Armored Division to overall commander because Bush declared "mission accomplished": The war's over. He was then denied the staff, soldiers and equipment he needed to deal with the insurgency that quickly broke out and produced thousands of prisoners. Bush has refused to hold himself or any of his top political appointees accountable for those catastrophic errors. Indeed, he has promoted many of them. And this is not an isolated problem. It's just one example, among many, of how this president's men run no risk of being blamed for anything that happens, not matter how egregious. The contrast could not have been more stark, nor the message more clear. On the day that a court-martial imposed justice on a 24-year-old U.S. Army sergeant for tormenting detainees at Abu Ghraib with his dog, President George W. Bush said once again that Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, whose benighted policies and managerial incompetence led to the prisoner abuse scandal, was doing a "fine job" and should stay at his post. We've seen this sorry pattern for nearly two years now, since the Abu Ghraib horrors first shocked the world: Bush has clung to the fiction that the abuse of prisoners was just the work of a few rotten apples, despite report after report after report demonstrating that it was organized and systematic + flowed from policies written by top officials in his administration." 24.Mar.2006 https://www.cannonfire.blogspot.com/Oh + while the administration’s claim renders the USAPATRIOT Act irrelevant, it does bail out the airlines who are being sued by 11.Sep.2001 families.

Researchers at the European Space Agency believe so. "Small acceleration sensors placed at different locations close to the spinning superconductor, which has to be accelerated for the effect to be noticeable, recorded an acceleration field outside the superconductor that appears to be produced by gravitomagnetism. This experiment is the gravitational analogue of Faraday's electromagnetic induction experiment in 1831." The effect is very small, so don't expect to see it used in spacecraft any time soon. But the effect is still many times larger than the predictions of Einstein's theories. "If confirmed, this would be a major breakthrough," says [Austrian researcher Martin] Tajmar.

Die Neokonservativen haben gedacht, dass Amerika moralischer sei als andere Länder + dass andere Leute verstehen, dass unsere Hegemonie so viel wohlwollender ist als die von vergangenen Imperien. Das haben sie falsch eingeschätzt. SPIEGEL ONLINE: Der Irak-Krieg hat eine Welle des Anti-Amerikanismus in Europa ausgelöst. Ist das vielleicht der größte Schaden, den er angerichtet hat? Fukuyama: Der Irak-Krieg hat natürlich eine ganze Menge Schaden in allen möglichen Bereichen angerichtet. Es wird mindestens eine Generation dauern, um die vorherige Modellrolle Amerikas und den Respekt, den es genossen hat, in der Welt wieder herzustellen.

Sollten sich solche Zellen auch aus menschlichen Hoden isolieren lassen, könnten sie eine ethisch unbedenkliche Alternative zur Gewinnung von Stammzellen aus menschlichen Embryos werden, schreiben die Forscher in ihrer Studie, die kommende Woche in der Online-Ausgabe der Fachzeitschrift "Nature" veröffentlicht werden soll. 24.Mar.2006 Maue Bilanz: EU-Energiegipfel spart Top-Themen aus 24.Mar.2006 Gewandelter Wortführer: "Die Neocons zogen die falschen Schlüsse" 24.Mar.2006 Möglicher Durchbruch: Forscher gewinnen Stammzellen aus Mäusehoden 24.Mar.2006 Trotz Vogelgrippe: Führungen zu Ringelgans und Austernfischer finden statt 24.Mar.2006 Mülhausen: Professor stirbt bei Explosion in Chemie-Labor 24.Mar.2006 Frankreich: Villepin lässt Gewerkschafter auflaufen 24.Mar.2006 Florida: Jahrhundertealtes Schiff an Land entdeckt 24.Mar.2006 Elektroschrott: Wegwerfen ab sofort verboten 24.Mar.2006 Urheberrecht: "Wir machen aus Kindern keine Kriminellen" 24.Mar.2006 Einbürgerung international: Wie werde ich...? 24.Mar.2006 Frankreichs Streikbrecher: "Lasst uns rein, wir wollen wieder studieren" 24.Mar.2006 Frankreich: Ein Toter und Verletzte bei Explosion in Hochschule 24.Mar.2006 Spanien: Eta-Waffenstillstand in Geheimverhandlungen vorbereitet 24.Mar.2006 Rügen: Eine Insel kämpft um ihre Zukunft 24.Mar.2006 Netzwelt-Ticker: Explorer mit Löchern 24.Mar.2006 Berlusconis Ex-Berater: "Ich erkenne ihn nicht wieder" |
