The ugly face of West Media
The other kind of terror - christian busted for trying to blow up
congress- gets 30 years- no media coverage
Imagine, for a moment, what would have happened if a Muslim extremist
with an apparent hatred of the American government had been apprehended
in, say, Tennessee, and charged with plotting to blow up Congress with a
briefcase bomb.
Do you suppose that the case would then be relegated to the back pages
of the local papers? Do you suppose it would go unmentioned by the 101st
Keyboard Kommandos in their ever-vigilant search for proof that the War
on Terror is right here in our midst?
Of course not. You can be certain Fox News would have splashed the case
across its broadcasts, and Michelle Malkin and Little Green Footballs
would have been all over it.
Now consider the case of Demetrius "Van" Crocker, who just happens to be
a white right-wing extremist.
Of course, this story is not even on the front page of the Jackson
paper, so I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for any Fox coverage,
either.

DICTATORSHIP : Travel only if you don't mind being seen NAKED
For people who HAVE to travel, get used to it; you WILL be seen naked by
some anonymous pervert at the TSA.
But the real damage will be to tourism. What family on vacation will
want to come to the US now, knowing that at every airport, they are
electronically forced to strip before the eyes of strangers.
And what investors will come to the US to start a business here, when
they have to be so humiliated at the airports?

The Lessons of Iraq, Gates-style
So, let's see if we can get this straight: With hindsight, his lesson
would be that, in the next Iraq-style invasion and occupation, we should
focus more on that “post-major combat phase” - a nice phrase that
resonates with our President's famed “mission accomplished” moment on
May 1, 2003 aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln, when he announced that
“major combat operations in Iraq have ended.”

Is President Bush Sane?
Bush's astonishing determination to deny Iraq reality was made the same
day that the US-installed Iraqi Prime Minister Maliki and US puppet King
Abdullah II of Jordan abruptly cancelled a meeting with Bush after Bush
was already in route to Jordan on Air Force One. Bush could not meet
with Maliki in Iraq, because violence in Baghdad is out of control. For
security reasons, the US Secret Service would not allow President Bush
to go to Iraq, where he is "building a stable democracy."
Bush made his astonishing statement in the face of news leaks of the
Iraq Study Group's call for a withdrawal of all US combat forces from
Iraq.

Repeating The Mistake, Intentionally!
If a civil war were to happen in Iraq, "our Sunni brothers will be the
ones to lose the most." That's what Abdul Aziz al-Hakim, leader of the
most powerful criminal group in Iraq, The Supreme Council for the
Islamic Revolution in Iraq, said last week. What a powerful, full of
hidden and obvious meaning sentence that was. I wonder how many hours or
days he had to think about it to make it as smooth as it sounded when he
said it. Now we turned into a new era in Iraq. It is time to go public
and threaten each other. Because you know what, the Unite States is,
again, backing this up (...) Why when the poisonous turbaned snake,
Hakim, publicly threatened his "brothers" the Sunnis, the government did
not oppose? Why did not the devil-Mullah's speech get enough publicity
in Iraq to give an idea what one of the country's most powerful
terrorist wants to turn Iraq into? What was a total strange coincidence
is that what Hakim said came just a few days before the White House
leaked information about what the administration intended to do next:
Back the Shiites and Kurds, who make about 80% of Iraq's population,
because that's who you should care about. And leave the Sunnis to
themselves and to the mercy of the Shiites...

Maliki's tools
George Bush is being widely quoted as having said after meeting Iraqi
Primi Minister Maliki yesterday. "One of his frustrations with me is
that he believes we've been slow about giving him the tools necessary to
protect the Iraqi people." Bush didn't elaborate on what those "tools"
might be, nor has any of the news coverage I've watched so far, but
surely it isn't merely "training" which A) doesn't qualify as a "tool",
and B) has been the alleged centerpiece of the U.S. "exit strategy" for
several years now. No, as I've been writing for a year and a half, I'm
guessing the "tools" that Maliki was referring to are the planes and
tanks he really needs to emulate the American "success" against the
resistance, tools that the U.S. has not only been "slow" about giving
the Iraqis, but tools that there isn't a chance in hell they're ever
going to give to them. Heck, as we just learned a few weeks ago, the
U.S. isn't even supplying armored Humvees to the Iraqi forces, much less
tanks and planes...

Time is on the Taliban's side Time is on the Taliban's side
US President George W Bush failed to achieve twin objectives of fewer
restrictions and more troops for Afghanistan at the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization (NATO) summit in Riga this week, shifting focus back
to Iraq, where he refuses to draw down military forces. The implicit
message to Taliban insurgents and their backers: time can erode an
already faltering alliance in the long run.
You cannot control the battlefield (read: the entire country) from the
air if you cannot control it from the ground, which NATO troops are
proving increasingly incapable of doing.
And one possible approach here is for the Taliban to be recognized as a
legitimate force in the country, and included politically.

UN suggests israel PAY for its crimes
A United Nations human rights inquiry said on Friday that Israel should
be made to pay compensation for damage caused by its month-long war in
Lebanon, especially losses incurred by civilians.
It suggested setting up an international compensation programme similar
to the one which has paid out billions of dollars to cover losses due to
Iraq's 1990-91 invasion and occupation of Kuwait.

Nike+ IPod = Surveillance
A report from four University of Washington researchers to be released
Thursday reveals that security flaws in the new RFID-powered device from
Nike and Apple make it easy for tech-savvy stalkers, thieves and
corporations to track your movements. With just a few hundred dollars
and a little know-how, someone could even plot your running routes on a
Google map without your knowledge.
