9/11: WHAT DID HAPPEN TO FLIGHT 93?
The unmarked military-style jet swooped down at high speed through the valley, twice circled the smouldering black scar where Flight 93 had careered into the ground just seconds earlier and then hurtled off over the horizon.
At least six eyewitnesses saw the mysterious aircraft on the morning of September 11 last year. But the US authorities deny it ever existed.

9/11: How Did Human Remains End Up Miles From Flight 93's Crash Site?
Are we supposed to believe that hijackers armed with only box cutters forced an angry mob to jump from the plane seconds before the crash? Or are we supposed to believe that people simply felt compelled to jump from the plane? If the official story is true then people jumping from the plane is the only way human remains could have been found miles from Flight 93's crash site.
A more logical explanation is that people inside the plane were sucked out because of a sudden depressurisation.

9/11: How to spot a terrorist
I really had no idea how to spot a terrorist until I studied the manuals published by the Phoenix FBI, the state employees of Virginia, and the Texas Department of Public Safety. Now that I have absorbed these manuals, I not only know how to spot a terrorist, but I have discovered that I probably am a terrorist.

Interest in Islamic, Arabic studies rising
Colleges offer more classes on Middle Eastern culture. Although Joyce Haikal was raised Catholic, the Lebanese-American was curious about the Islamic roots of her parents home country.
This semester, the 22-year-old22- year - old 22-yearold Dalton, Ga., resident signed up for a University of Tennessee at Chattanooga course on Islam.
"I just found it very interesting," the sociology major said. "(Americans should be) more educated in knowing that not all Muslims are bad and not all Muslims are Arab."
Ms. Haikal is one of a growing number of students taking courses on Islam or Arabic at colleges across the country, a trend that emerged after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, educators said. As the war on terror grows more complicated, students are looking for a better understanding of the Middle East, and companies are looking for experts in Arabic and Islam, educators said.

"Save Darfur": Evangelicals and Establishment Jews
It's embarrassing that America -- and the world -- will be witnessing a PRO-WAR rally in Washington, D.C. on April 30 (a project of SaveDarfur.org) that is far more highly publicized than an anti-war one (that appears to be poorly organized) in New York City on April 29, even while Washington is still soldiering on in Afghanistan and Iraq and gunning for sanctions or war on Iran.
Who is behind this astonishing pro-war rally in war-weary America (war-weary as far as the Iraq War is concerned, that is)? A rag-tag coalition of evangelicals and establishment Jews (those whom the corporate media designate as official leaders of Jewish communities):
Keeping the peace within the diverse Save Darfur Coalition has not been easy. Tensions have arisen, in particular, between evangelical Christians and immigrants from Darfur, whose population is almost entirely Muslim and deeply suspicious of missionary activity.
Organizers rushed this week to invite two Darfurians to address the rally after Sudanese immigrants objected that the original list of speakers included eight Western Christians, seven Jews, four politicians and assorted celebrities -- but no Muslims and no one from Darfur.

The "New Totalitarianism" now defines a desperate neo-con end game
As the Bush/neo-con kleptocracy disintegrates in a toxic cloud of military defeat, economic bankruptcy, environmental disaster and escalating mega-scandal, its attack on basic American freedoms---its "New Totalitarianism"---has escalated to a desperate new level, including brutal Soviet-style prosecutions against non-violent dissidents and an all-out offensive for state secrecy, including an attack on the internet.
In obvious panic and disarray, the GOP right has turned to a time-honored strategy---kill the messengers. While it slaughters Americans and Iraqis to "bring democracy" to the Middle East, it has made democracy itself public enemy Number One here at home.

Doing the Unthinkable -- Comparing Bush and Hitler; Part I of five parts
Protestors sign confiscated by German police during Bushs Feb. 2005, visit:
"We had our Hitler, now you have yours."
What follows is a comparison between Hitlers rise to dictatorial power in 1930s Germany and the Bush administrations rise to dictatorial power in America today, focusing on the role religion and patriotism played in both. It is based largely on the psychological study of Hitler commissioned by the United States government during WWII and undertaken by a team of people including psychologist Walter C. Langer in 1942-43. It was published in 1972 as a book titled The Mind of Adolph Hitler by Walter C. Langer. (L.) indicates Langers words, (H.) indicates Hitlers words.

How Big Is Bush's Big Government?
We, in the United States, live under the rule of the largest civil government, measured in budgetary terms, in history. Federal spending alone in fiscal year 2006 is expected to be over $2.7 trillion, which means the federal government spends $7.4 billion a day or $5.1 million in every minute of the year. This is 815 times the level of federal spending in 1930.
Things have been getting worse recently. In the first five years of the Bush regime, federal spending increased 45 percent. Readers of Mises.org may remember that they were warned about Bush's fiscal irresponsibility before he took office. For comparison's sake, during the eight Clinton years nominal federal spending increased 32 percent, and under Bush I federal spending increased 23 percent in four years. In the 2000 election, Bush II promised to shovel money into all sorts of programs and hes kept that promise.

Ferment Over 'The Israel Lobby'
Intellectuals can only dream of having the impact that John Mearsheimer and Stephen Walt have had this spring. Within hours of their publishing a critique of the Israel lobby in The London Review of Books for March 23, the article was zinging around the world, soon to show up on the front pages of newspapers and stir heated discussion on cable-TV shows. Virtually overnight, two balding professors in their 50s had become public intellectuals, ducking hundreds of e-mails, phone messages and challenges to debate.

The media's missing links
Not that I'd suggest the British, or indeed the US, media is involved in government conspiracies. That's barely necessary - they need only be lazy, broke and scared. Even if media outlets aspire to be something beyond a kind of sophisticated Xeroxing service for PR handouts and spin, they often don't have the money, or the staff, to be effective.
BULL BISCUITS!!!
If the blogs operating on spare change can be effective at exposing government lies, then so can the mainstream media. If they are not doing it, it is by conscious choice.

'unknown Americans' are provoking civil war in Iraq
The Americans, my interlocutor suspected, are trying to provoke an Iraqi civil war so that Sunni Muslim insurgents spend their energies killing their Shia co-religionists rather than soldiers of the Western occupation forces. "I swear to you that we have very good information," my source says, finger stabbing the air in front of him. "One young Iraqi man told us that he was trained by the Americans as a policeman in Baghdad and he spent 70 per cent of his time learning to drive and 30 per cent in weapons training. They said to him: 'Come back in a week.' When he went back, they gave him a mobile phone and told him to drive into a crowded area near a mosque and phone them. He waited in the car but couldn't get the right mobile signal. So he got out of the car to where he received a better signal. Then his car blew up."
Another common trick being used is for US soldiers to stop an Iraqi driver for a "security check". The Iraqi is asked to surrender his driver's license and then sit inside a nearby building while his car is "searched". He is then told he is free to go, but that he has to go the the nearby police station to reclaim his driver's license. Iraqi drivers have felt their car was handling differently after leaving the checkpoint and checked their cars only to find them wired with explosives.

The ministry said in a statement that the Israeli forces stationed at Beit hanoun in north Gaza banned today three Palestinian children, their mothers as well as cancer patients to continue their medication in Israeli hospitals.
Ah, the (lack of) humanity. This is ethnic cleansing though barring medical care to those who are not threats to Israel. And we're talking about kids here, plus cancer patients.

Soldiers reportedly claimed that they thought the girl was 16. Investigators are expected to file charges soon.
