=== News Update === End this chorus of intolerance : It is uncivilised to demand that Muslims abandon their way of life http://www.guardian.co.uk/comment/story/0,3604,1547594,00.html http://snipurl.com/gwui === Able Danger disabled THE report of the 9/11 commission, once a best seller and hailed by the news media as the definitive word on the subject, must now be moved to the fiction shelves. The commission concluded, you'll recall, that the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon couldn't have been prevented, and that if there was negligence, it was as much the fault of the Bush Administration (for moving slowly on the recommendations of Clinton counterterrorism chief Richard Clarke) as of the Clinton administration. Able Danger has changed all of that. http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article9755.htm http://snipurl.com/gx9i === 9/11 Revisionism, Revisited : The mystery of 'Able Danger' Why is there no mention, Mr. Speaker, of a recommendation in September of 2000 to take out Mohammed Atta's cell which would have detained three of the terrorists who struck us?" http://antiwar.com/justin/?articleid=6923 http://snipurl.com/gx9j === 9/11: The Secret Service at Booker Elementary: The Dog That Did Not Bark The release of the new 9-11 tapes appears to be an attempt to revive the feelings of the terror attack,possibly as a prelude to another staged terror attack. That being the case, I am relinking this story, which is the one aspect of 9-11 that proves Bush and his Secret Service knew what the targets were ahead of time and represents one aspect of the hoax none of the Bush supporters have been able to explain away. http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/9-11secretservice.html === 9/11: Key General fired as nuke terror drill set for Aug 17 News is flying in regard to the nuclear terror drill set for this month. It is feared by informed researchers that an actual nuclear detonation may be piggybacked on the drill, as was the modus operandi in the 9/11 and 7/7 inside jobs. http://www.globalnewsmatrix.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=2159 === Moral indifference as the form of modern evil: In an essay on the challenges posed by the Holocaust to philosophy, the German sociologist Rainer C. Baum described moral indifference as the definitive form of modern evil http://www.thehindu.com/2005/08/12/stories/2005081201511000.htm http://snipurl.com/gxah === Newspaper editor charged under anti-racism laws following article : THE editor of a Scottish weekly newspaper is facing possible prosecution under Britain's anti-racism laws, following the publication of an article claiming that a massive refugee camp could be built in Scotland. http://thescotsman.scotsman.com/index.cfm?id=1755302005 http://snipurl.com/gxai === Blaming the Mosques for the Sins of Governments The deadly terror attacks in Egypt's Sharm el-Sheik Red Sea resort in July and the earlier October 2004 bombings at two other Red Sea resorts seem to have disrupted the consistency of the rationale that links the current terrorism upsurge in the Middle East to the US war effort in Iraq. Published August 6, 2005 - www.antiwar.com http://www.antiwar.com/orig/baroud.php?articleid=6897 === 'There is No Enemy Greater Than Ourselves': In this open letter to President Bush, the wife of a soldier imprisoned for objecting to the war makes the case for peace. http://www.alternet.org/waroniraq/24010/ http://snipurl.com/gx9r === It is not only Iraq that is occupied. America is too My country is in the grip of a president surrounded by thugs in suits More Americans are beginning to feel, like the soldiers in Iraq, that something is terribly wrong. More and more every day the lies are being exposed. And then there is the largest lie, that everything the US does is to be pardoned because we are engaged in a "war on terrorism", ignoring the fact that war is itself terrorism, that barging into homes and taking away people and subjecting them to torture is terrorism, that invading and bombing other countries does not give us more security but less. http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article9747.htm http://snipurl.com/gwtq === Blair's New Authoritarianism Terror and Democracy In the face of terror attacks Anglo-Saxon politicians mouth the same rhetoric. One sentence in particular--shrouded in layers of untruth--is constantly repeated: 'We shall not permit these attacks to change our way of life.' It is a multi-purpose mantra. The first aim is to convince the public that the terrorists are crazed Muslims who are bombing modernity/democracy/freedom/ 'our values', etc. http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article9748.htm http://snipurl.com/gwts === Myers: Release of Abu Ghraib prison photos could cause riots Don't worry General.

Witnesses claim that the detainees some as young as 10 are also being subjected to rape and torture http://www.sundayherald.com/43796 === The flag won't protect you; it's in the wrong hands Americans are convinced they are the emissaries of peace and good will. Pretty staggering delusion all things consideredpathological, one might say. What is the cause of this megalomania? Perhaps it's that radical branch of Protestantism called Puritanism? A kind of Anglo equivalent of Wahabbism? http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article9754.htm http://snipurl.com/gx9e === Iraqis say 15 dead after U.S. military shooting : The director of Ramadi General Hospital, said 15 people were killed, including eight children, and 17 wounded. http://snipurl.com/gx9k === "Quick Strike" causes civilian casualties in western Iraq : "What is happening in Haqlaniyam, Browana and Haditha is a disaster. Bodies are in the streets or buried under the rubble for days, but US forces do not allow people to move and claim the bodies.
