Islam thrives as Russia's population falls
Russia is in the midst of startling transformation. Islamic faith is
thriving across the country. If current trends continue, experts say, more
than half of Russia's population will be Muslim by mid-century.
Spurring on the mob was Alexander Belov, charismatic head of the Movement
Against Illegal Immigration, an increasingly powerful lobby group that has
staged dozens of rallies in recent months. In an interview at a Czech
restaurant in central Moscow, Belov railed against what he called the
growing "Islamification" of Russia.
"Russia is historically a Slavic, Orthodox Christian land and we need to
make sure it stays that way," he said, adding that Orthodox Christianity
should be enshrined as Russia's official religion and efforts made to
convert Muslims. Islam is currently recognized as one of Russia's official
religions, along with Orthodox Christianity, Judaism and Buddhism.
Like many nationalists, Belov makes no distinction between Muslim
immigrants and Russian citizens of Islamic faith. He says Muslims, no
matter what their citizenship, should be restricted from living in
"traditional Russian lands."

U.S. tracks Canadians for terror traits
Monitoring system stores data on flights, licence plates, credit cards,
addresses
WASHINGTONThe U.S. government knows where you sat on your last
cross-border flight, how you paid for your ticket, your email address, your
phone number, even your special meal requests in the past.
They won't let you look at the information but they can share it with law
enforcement agencies, foreign governments, even public health agencies and
they can keep the dossiers compiled on millions of Canadian travellers for
up to 40 years.

9/11 : Close-Up of WTC-7 Collapse Footage Shows Unmistakable Demolition Charges
I had stayed away from the issue of puffs of smoke and debris coming out of
the World Trade Center buildings up until now because most of them could be
explained as air being forced out through windows as ceilings collapsed
onto the floors.

The U.S. Has a History of Using Torture
Mr. McCoy is J.R.W. Smail Professor of History at the University of
Wisconsin-Madison and the author of A Question of Torture: CIA
Interrogation, from the Cold War to the War on Terror (New York:
Metropolitan Books, 2006).
In April 2004, Americans were stunned when CBS broadcast those
now-notorious photographs from Iraq's Abu Ghraib prison, showing hooded
Iraqis stripped naked while U.S. soldiers stood by smiling. As this
scandal grabbed headlines around the globe, Defense Secretary Donald
Rumsfeld insisted that the abuses were "perpetrated by a small number of
U.S. military," whom New York Times columnist William Safire soon branded
"creeps"--a line that few in the press had reason to challenge.

End is near in Babylon
Iraqs prime minister, Nuri Al Maliki, governs only over Baghdads
US-protected Green Zone. The US controls what passes for Iraqs police and
armed forces. Maliki has no army of his own; his Shia supporters are
divided and feuding. How can Bush expect a powerless prime minister to do
what the mighty US cannot? Continue

Weve witnessed the troubling behavior of a president who isnt merely in a

The US and the Middle East: A Grand Settlement Versus the Jewish Lobby

Iraq - Lantos: "We'll be rid of the bastard soon enough. And in his place
we'll install a pro-Western dictator"
"My dear Colette, don't worry," said Tom Lantos, the California
congressman, as he tried to calm MK Colette Avital of the Labor Party, who
was visiting Capitol Hill last week as part of a delegation of the Peace
Coalition. "You won't have any problem with Saddam," the Jewish congressman
continued. "We'll be rid of the bastard soon enough. And in his place we'll
install a pro-Western dictator, who will be good for us and for you."

Mister Death Squad Goes to Washington
Welcome to the final Byzantine round of the Machiavellian Iraqi war games
in Washington. Making his triumphant appearance today is none other than
Abdelaziz Al-Hakim the wise one. Hes a veteran player who survived four
years of preliminary elimination rounds to qualify for the final phase of
what is turning out to be a truly Olympian imperial project.

Afghanistan.
