Subject: Good ole Bin Laden! Always there to fall back on! These "
Head-Bangers" need to look in a mirror to see how " Stupid" they act! / The
Nazis did the exact same thing. Has our Society become that "Gullible?"
Whenever they need a war, they resurrect
the elusive, probably dead Osama Bin Laden!!
any excuse is needed according to Cheney, any
attack made by him, will give the USA apparently the go ahead to attack Iran
because now OBL ,supposedly a devout Sunni ARAB Muslim, is working
alongside non Arab Shia Iranian Muslims.
I wonder whether USRAEL's attack will occur on
the vengeance month of Purim for world Jewry when they are encouraged
by their Rabbis to seek revenge on Gentiles!
Do a search on Purim to understand their
motives and revengeful ideology
Subject: Here he is again Pure sensationalism by the media, to scare the people into accepting more restriction of civil

The Nazis did the exact same thing.
It is the sort of invitation any poverty-stricken
student would find hard to resist. "Do you have a professor who just can't stop
talking about President Bush, about the war in Iraq, about the Republican party,
or any other ideological issue that has nothing to do with the class subject
matter? If you help ... expose the professor, we'll pay you for your work."

beating the war drums for Iran
Al-Ahram Weekly Online : Located at: http://weekly.ahram.org.eg/2006/778/re6.htm "Pro-Israel groups and organisations have been particularly vociferous in
their lobbying for a more hard-line US position against Tehran. The American
Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), which had only a month ago criticised
the US position towards Iran as too lenient when the administration accepted a
Russian proposal to defuse the crisis with Iran, has called for renewed effort
to stop Tehran gaining nuclear technology. The group now fronts a special file
on Iran entitled "Decades of Deception: Iran's Pursuit of Nuclear Weapons" on
its Web site. Visitors are greeted with the lobbying group's pledge: "Iran must
be stopped before it develops nuclear weapons."
AIPAC is credited for pushing Congress and the administration towards a number of legislative initiatives hostile to Iran and for placing Tehran's nuclear programme at the top of the international agenda. Another pro-Israel group, the American Jewish Congress (AJC), says it too is intensifying efforts to convince the international community of the need to stand up against Iran. "The resumption of their nuclear programme is an affront to the international community, and a threat to Israel, and to every other nation in the range of their missiles," AJC President Paul Miller, said in a statement. "The international community must take the steps necessary to prevent Iran form developing nuclear weapons," he added. The American Jewish Committee, a third group, launched a new campaign this year to push world leaders to adopt a set of measures penalising Iran, some of them borrowed from policies buttressed by Israel and the United States on Saddam Hussein's regime for years under UN sanctions. These include convincing countries to recall diplomatic envoys to Tehran, expelling Iranian diplomats, suspending Iran from a range of international organisations, and imposing economic sanctions. Like the Iraq invasion scenario, a number of think tanks whose experts flood television stations and newspaper columns back this lobbying-cum-professional political activism sold to the US public as analysis. The Brookings Institution, for example -- an integral part of the intellectual padding of US foreign policy and whose Middle East programme is now increasingly pro-Israel -- devoted its email alert on Monday to what it calls "Iran's defiance". Some of the Washington-based institution's media-savvy activists, who had previously preached a military invasion of Iraq, have now urged Washington to consider military strikes against Iran. Kenneth M Pollack ( http://www.itszone.co.uk/zone0/viewtopic.php?p=185814#185814 ), director of research at the Saban Centre on Middle East Policy told a Congressional hearing in September that the US should study the possibility of waging a targeted air campaign aimed at Iran's nuclear facilities as a last resort.

Iraq is out of control. This is the conclusion of a US government report which contradicts in every detail George Bushs public optimism about great progress. The deeper Iraq sinks into death, destruction and chaos, the more likely is an attack on Iran by Bush, to try and divert attention from what is now widely considered to be one of the worst foreign policy blunders in US history. The hypocrisy of the current phoney crisis being orchestrated from Washington is too obvious to state here. Suffice to say that, unlike the demonstrable war crimes committed by Bush and Blair, Iran is not doing anything illegal in planning to develop nuclear power stations. Those who took us into an illegal and unjustified war in March 2003 are now planning to extend the Iraq catastrophe into Iran, with unknown consequences, not just the Middle East, but for the security of the whole world. The anti-war movement is already responding to the threat and Dont Attack Iran will be one of the slogans for the international day of protest on March 18/19. What we do is particularly significant because Bush and Blair have learned from the Iraq experience. This time they are being much more careful this in preparing a consensus among what they call the international community for action against Iran. Much of Europe is already falling into line behind Bush and Blair. According to Alan Watkins in The Observer, Tony Blair and his ministers, "see Iraq disappearing over the hill and becoming merged in the general nightmare of Middle Eastern politics." Blair certainly hopes that the anti-war movement will fade from view. On March 18 we can show him how mistaken he is. We will continue campaigning for as long as the occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan continue and the best antidote to Bush and Blairs missile rattling over Iran will be to make the March 18 national demonstration in London as big as we can, reflecting the anti-war views of the vast majority of British people. You can help make sure that no one can say after 18 March they werent on the demonstration because they didnt know about it. Leaflets are available from the Stop the War Office.

Last year, the U.S. Army fell 6,600 recruits short of its goal to enlist 80,000 new soldiers It is not military service that is being rejected, but rather military service in support of a cause not deemed worthy of the sacrifice expected. The military today has degenerated into an entity that is viewed by many in the American public as no longer serving the larger interests of the American people, but rather the play toy of a political elite who use the U.S. military as a tool to impose their ideology on others around the world, as opposed to upholding and defending the Constitution of the United States, the mission assumed when one is sworn into military service America went to war in Iraq on the basis of false premises. Our troops fight and die for a cause most Americans cannot identify with. And the U.S. military is engaged in domestic spying operations against the very citizens it is sworn to defend.
