G20 must produce the goods, says EU
ANDREW WILLIS Today APR 1,09 @ 06:45 CET

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - Prominent figures within the European Union have upped the ante with increasingly tough rhetoric as they prepare to negotiate solutions to the economic crisis at a meeting in London this Thursday (2 April).We are there for results,European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso told journalists in Brussels on Tuesday. It is a question of now or never.Someone said a crisis is a terrible thing to waste,and I think it is a very good expression. This is a crisis, so we should use it to change what is wrong.On the same day, French finance minister Christine Lagarde told British radio that France would walk away from the negotiations if the deliverables are not there.Her comments echo those of French President Nicholas Sarkozy who recently told French ministers: If things don't move forward in London, it will be the empty chair. I will get up and leave,reports French daily Le Figaro. French fears that the leaders from the Group of 20 industrial nations will backtrack on verbal commitments to improve global financial regulation are shared by Mr Barroso. Some of those who speak very often about the need for more effective regulation, afterwards when they have to agree on a precise proposal, they are not so ambitious,he said in reference to a recently agreed EU deal on regulation of the insurance sector. He said the package agreed by EU ministers, known as Solvency II, had been significantly watered down from the original commission proposal.However, Mr Barroso declined to say whether he would walk out with Mr Sarkozy if the debate turns into a talking shop while admitting that Thursday's meeting was unlikely to be the last of its kind.

G20 to become dominant forum?

I think it would be useful to have another [G20] summit this year, said Mr Barroso. I think the London summit should produce concrete results, but obviously it will be an ongoing process.Already, leaders are jockeying to succeed Britain's Gordon Brown as the host of the next G20 meeting as they seek to boost their statesman-like credentials and portray themselves as international deal-brokers. The inaugural G20 meeting of finance ministers took place in 1999 and has worked on a rotating basis since then. South Korea is due to hold the chair in 2010. Upgrading the meeting to the level of heads of state and government appears to have thrown the cat amongst the pigeons however, with Italy, France, Japan and South Korea amongst countries reportedly vying to take over the chair of the next meeting.Asked on Monday what the UK prime minister's reaction was regarding a suggestion that the Sardinian G8 summit in July could effectively become a G20 meeting, his spokesperson said that No.10 would see merit in further meetings of the G20.The response underlines the increasingly strong feeling in political circles that the G20 is the natural forum to resolve the world's problems as its members represent 80 percent of the world's GNP and two thirds of the world's population.

With so many disparate voices around the table however and an EU-US tug-of-war over whether economic stimulus or financial regulation should take preference still rumbling in the background, Mr Brown is likely to have his work cut out as he strives to secure a meaningful deal on Thursday. Aware of this, Mr Barroso said his top priority for the meeting is unity,stressing that G20 leaders needed to tackle a range of issues and not simply concentrate on one or the other. As well as stimulus spending and financial regulation, global governance structures such as the International Monetary Fund and the Financial Stability Forum should be strengthened, he said.Likewise, leaders must focus on rejecting protectionism and continuing the development agenda by meeting the United Nations Millennium Development Goals, a set of targets to improve the life of people in the world's poorest nations by 2015.

IN THEIR OWN WORDS AT G-20
http://www.londonsummit.gov.uk/en/summit-aims/summit-progress/quotes-leaders/

Quotations from world leaders in the days before the London Summit:

Barack Obama, President, United States
30 March. Interview with the Financial Times. 'The most important task for all of us is to deliver a strong message of unity in the face of crisis. All the participating countries recognise that in the face a severe global contraction we have to each take steps to promote economic growth and trade; that means a robust approach to stimulus, fighting off protectionism.'

Gordon Brown, Prime Minister, United Kingdom. Chair, London Summit
24 March. European Parliament. Starting at our debate today as we prepare for the London summit next week, I propose that we as Europe take a central role replacing what was called the old Washington consensus with a new consensus for our times. I am confident that at the London summit we can build on the action that the European Council and G20 ministers agreed a few days ago: that we will do whatever it takes to create the growth and the jobs we need.

Hu Jintao, President , China
7 March. Beijing. Challenge and opportunity always come together. Under certain conditions, one could be transformed into the other.

Manmohan Singh, Prime Minister, India
31 March. New Delhi. The G20 has an important role to play in addressing the global economic and financial slowdown by taking coordinated and purposeful action. It is important and necessary for the Summit to take credible decisions which will help to halt and reverse the current slowdown and to instil a sense of confidence in the global economy.

Nicolas Sarkozy, President, France
24 March. The London summit should not be purely mechanical, moreover it should be a political summit where we question whether to reform capitalism or leave the field clear for those who want to destroy it. We know where anti-capitalism leads. Surely we do not want to recreate the dramas of the past? Now let us not delay any longer. The current attitude of excess and drifting along must come to an end.

Angela Merkel, Chancellor, Germany
27 March. Interview with the Financial Times. We are coming together to make joint decisions, not to compete against each other,she said. We all want the same thing: to put the world economy back on its feet as fast as possible and to prevent such a crisis from happening again.

Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, President, Argentina
18 February. Buenos Aires. We are going to discuss how to address the globalisation avalanche which has led to the collapse of sacred icons and totems which had been enshrined and about which nobody could discuss or question without the risk of being considered a heretic.

Kevin Rudd, Prime Minister, Australia
29 March. The Andrew Marr Show, BBC TV. Given that this is a global economic challenge, only the G20 has the global economic reach to provide the response necessary to begin to mend this global economic recession and to support the restoration of jobs around the world.

Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, President, Brazil
16 March. New York. Protectionism at this point would, in my opinion, make the economic crisis worse. If we shut off international commerce it would be like taking a fish out of water, it's going to lack air.

Jan Peter Balkenende, Prime Minister, The Netherlands
30 March. Fighting the current economic and financial crisis demands resolve and commitment. We need to act, and we need to act together.

José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, Prime Minister, Spain
30 March. The G20 Summit must represent a new stage in the international community's efforts to overcome the financial and economic crises… The key challenge of the G20 is to link the short-term response to the crisis with the task of fundamental reform. We need to build a robust institutional framework to underpin, not only globalisation, but also to address market failures.

Taro Aso, Prime Minister, Japan
22 January. Tokyo. I have renewed confidence that the world's largest and the second-largest economies can work together by joining hands.

Felipe Calderon, President, Mexico
12 March. Mexico City. We always believe that, particularly in difficult times, protectionism is not the correct answer is the wrong answer. If something can be learned from the crisis of the mid-30 is that the imposition of protectionist measures and encouraging slows the recovery of the Mexican economy.

Dmitry Medvedev, President, Russia
15 March. Russian Government website. If you ask what we are proposing, it is simply a more equitable international financial system. In principle all states are talking about this. The issue is where to put the emphasis and whether we want to move forward or simply remain stuck in the situation we have today. Our position is that we need to move forward. I hope that this position will be well-received by our partners during my visit to London for the G20 summit.

Lee Myung-bak, President, Republic of Korea
4 March. Interview with The Australian. The recovery of the global economy will depend on actions the US Government takes. It's very important for us to strengthen international co-operation so that global economies can co-ordinate large fiscal stimulus packages and we can recover together.

King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz Al Saud, Saudi Arabia
29 November. Interview with Al-Siyassah. What they are in need, as they say, is the restoration of confidence. I think that if the big world economies get acquainted with means of cooperation among them, then they will become capable of surpassing the crisis as they surpassed previous crises.

Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Prime Minister, Turkey
27 March on CNN Turk.I will meet with the managing director of the Fund during the G-20 Summit in London on April 1-2. After completing the talks process, we will sign an agreement. If we cannot agree with IMF officials, then we keep on preserving current conjuncture.

Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, President, Indonesia
5 March. Bandar Lampung. I attend the G-20 meeting in order to discuss leaders of major countries on how to jointly overcome the global crisis [and] voice Indonesia's interest, so that our economy could be managed and our people could be protected, though there are obstacles.

Kgalema Motlanthe, President, South Africa
11 March. Johannesburg. No country can respond to the global financial crisis in isolation. South Africa's banking system will play a key role in ensuring that we come out of the global economic recession. We have what it takes to ensure we pull out of this difficult pattern.

Key achievements ahead of the London Summit APR 1,09

The objective of the London Summit is to bring the world's biggest economies together to help restore global economic growth through enhanced international coordination. To achieve this requires three commitments by world leaders:

First, to take whatever action is necessary to stabilise financial markets and enable families and businesses to get through the recession.
Second, to reform and strengthen the global financial and economic system in order to restore confidence and trust.
Third, to put the global economy on track for sustainable growth, high levels of employment and poverty reduction.
In the four months since the Washington Summit, international events such as the World Economic Forum in Davos have provided forums for discussion of possible solutions to the global economic crisis. Countries and regional groups from around the world have also been working closely together to find practical policies to meet all three commitments. Several governments – including Spain and Russia – have set out their own agendas following publication by the UK of its plan for recovery – The Road to the London Summit.

In the run-up to the London Summit, several preparatory meetings have made considerable progress in reaching agreement on some of the key issues. At the recent meeting of G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors, the following were agreed:

A commitment to fight all forms of protectionism and maintain open trade
A pledge to deliver the scale of sustained effort necessary to restore growth
A promise that central banks will maintain expansionary policies as long as is needed
A recognition of the urgent need to increase the resources of the International Monetary Fund
Action to restore bank lending through measures such as liquidity support, recapitalisation and dealing with impaired assets
Appropriate regulation and oversight of all systemically important financial institutions, markets and instruments – and registration of hedge funds or their managers
Stronger regulation reinforced by macro-prudential oversight to prevent the build-up of systemic risk
Changes to international banking regulations to ensure they dampen rather than amplify economic cycles
Supervisory colleges, with strengthened international cooperation to prevent and resolve crises
Regulatory oversight of all credit rating agencies whose ratings are used for regulatory purposes
Identification of non-cooperative jurisdictions – and a tool-box of effective counter-measures
Sound practice principles for compensation
Enhancement of the governance of international financial institutions to strengthen their effectiveness and legitimacy - including open, merit-based selection processes for their heads.
Ahead of the G20 preparatory meeting, the Financial Stability Forum agreed to increase its membership to include all the G20 countries, in order to enhance its ability to contribute to improving the international financial system. At the same meeting in London, the FSF also agreed on action to improve banking regulation, get rid of bankers' bonuses that encourage excessive risk-taking and strengthen cross-border crisis management.

A number of countries have also taken independent policy that helps to deliver London Summit aims. These actions include:banking recapitalisation - for example the US has injected $236bn into banks fiscal stimulus policies - among many others, China has implemented discretionary measures which the IMF estimates amount to 2 per cent of GDP this year expansionary monetary policy - for example, the ECB has significantly lowered the benchmark interest rate to 1.5 per cent, a record low.Japan has agreed to lend the IMF $100bn, even before agreement is reached on a figure for the increase in its resources. Europe’s leaders agreed to provide an extra €75bn to the IMF at the meeting of the European Council on 19th and 20th March. The IMF has approved an overhaul of its lending framework that should make it easier and more attractive for emerging market economies to seek the Fund’s support during the global crisis. Switzerland, Austria and Luxembourg have followed Hong Kong, Singapore, Andorra and Liechtenstein in taking steps to improve the exchange of tax information with other countries in line with international standards drawn up by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development.Others will follow suit in the days ahead, as the final measures needed to complete the global deal to be reached in London on 2nd April are agreed.

26 Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.

More blizzard woes in Dakotas; hailstorm in Texas Tuesday AccuWeather Tue Mar 31, 3:32pm ET

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. – A huge weather system stretching from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico piled more deep snow on parts of the Dakotas on Tuesday and battered parts of Texas with damaging hail.The second major storm in a week dumped more than a foot of snow on sections of South Dakota.By early afternoon, the state Department of Public Safety had reopened Interstate 90 from the Wyoming border to Murdo. But the route remained closed from Murdo to Mitchell. A small section of I-90 remained closed in Wyoming. Parts of Interstate 29, which runs north-south along the eastern edge of the Dakotas, also were closed because of ice and blowing snow.In North Dakota, 17 inches of new snow fell in Bismarck. That puts the central North Dakota city an inch shy of its record season total of 101.6 inches set in 1996-1997.Blowing snow created whiteout conditions in the Nebraska Panhandle, and some roads and schools closed across the northern part of the state.The storm's stiff wind threatened to create high waves that could batter levees along the swollen Red River at Fargo, N.D. The dikes were holding but authorities were concerned about runoff that will result when the latest snowfall melts in the weeks ahead.On the southern Plains, hail damaged roofs and cars in suburbs of Dallas late Monday. No injuries were reported. The National Weather Service warned of the potential for severe storms later in the day Tuesday in southern Mississippi, which was struck by tornadoes last week.

Storms roll again over flooded, soggy Southeast AccuWeather By JAY REEVES, Associated Press Writer MAR 31,09

GENEVA, Ala. – Thunderstorms accompanied by the threat of tornadoes rolled across the already soaked Southeast on Tuesday, raising new worries for residents still recovering from a weekend deluge that flooded hundreds of homes, washed out roads and forced evacuations.Tornado warnings were issued for points in southeast Alabama, the Florida Panhandle and Georgia, and the National Weather Service forecast more thunderstorms in the region Wednesday and Thursday.Southern Mississippi residents were still cleaning up from tornadoes and flooding as disaster officials warned them to brace for another round of potentially severe storms that could fatten swollen rivers. In southeast Alabama, volunteers and Houston County jail inmates filled more than 2,500 sandbags for people to place in front of their homes to keep out water.

We've had more than 300 houses flooded countywide,sheriff's Lt. Jeff Carlisle said. It's everywhere, even in places where it's never flooded before. Every low-lying area in the county is flooded.Schools were closed in one Mississippi county and more than a dozen residents in Alabama were staying at a motel. The problems could worsen.In their 40-plus years running Stinson's Grocery in Geneva, Ann and Lloyd Stinson said they've never seen so much rain in such a short time. Their store is on a small hill across from the Pea River, which overflowed its banks and washed out a road that runs next to it.Their son's photography studio downtown was soaked with about a foot of flood waters over the weekend.Saturday afternoon people were pulling out carpets and cleaning up all over downtown,Ann Stinson said.What's so frustrating is to think they're going to have to do it all over again.The area could receive about a foot of rain by this weekend.The National Weather Service called Tuesday for as much as three to five inches across south Alabama, the Florida Panhandle and Georgia. Those amounts are expected to increase with new storms spreading rain throughout the area later in the week.Parts of the Southeast have seen rainfall between five and 11 inches in recent days, and some isolated areas had upward of 17 inches.Water is going down in some areas, but the forecast has emergency officials on alert.We're seeing estimates of 6 to 12 inches more by the end of the weekend,Carlisle said.

At least 30 people were forced from their homes over the weekend in Houston County, Ala. Dothan Red Cross executive director Susan Holmes said 14 evacuees remained in city motels Tuesday.In Mobile, Red Cross executive director Leisle Mims said her agency helped find temporary shelter for 29 families, or about 60 people, displaced by flooding in Mobile and Baldwin counties, but most had returned to their homes by Tuesday.The weekend thunderstorms caused an estimated $1.25 million in flood damage in Houston County, one of 11 counties Gov. Bob Riley declared in a state of emergency.

In Geneva County, Emergency Management Agency Director Margaret Mixon said the reinforced levee protecting the city of Geneva from the rising Pea and Choctawhatchee rivers was holding. But Mixon said three retention ponds are near capacity.With about 4,300 residents, the city of Geneva is dry, but it is surrounded by floodwaters that are expected to rise against the levee, she said.We're in for a lot more rain. We're just giving out sandbags and hoping for the best,she said. Mixon said about 300 homes in the rural county on the Florida line were flooded by the weekend storms and a number still have water. We've got tarps ready in case people need them, said Baldwin County EMA Director Leigh Ann Ryals.The severe weather has killed one person in Florida and injured 30 in Mississippi. In Florida, the Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office reported the death of an Alabama man whose pickup truck washed off a roadway and sank in floodwaters on Sunday.

New Israeli PM says extremist Islam trying to destroy his MAR 31,09

JERUSALEM (CNN) -- Incoming Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned Tuesday that extremist Islam is trying to bring us down through terrorism from north and south as his Cabinet prepared to take office.Benjamin Netanyahu, top left, presents his government in the Israeli parliament Tuesday in Jerusalem.Netanyahu and his Cabinet were sworn in later in the day, after the Israeli parliament confirmed his new government in a 69-45 vote.The prime minister offered an olive branch of sorts to Palestinians but did not hold out the promise of their own state.In order for there to be peace, our Palestinian allies and partners also have to fight terrorism, he said.They must bring up their children in the spirit of tolerance and peace. In the last two decades, six heads of government in Israel have failed to achieve a peace settlement, but they were not at fault. I say to the leaders of the Palestinian Authority: If you really want peace, then peace can be achieved.We don't want to control another people, Netanyahu said of Israel's military control of Palestinian territory, which dates to the 1967 Arab-Israeli war.We don't want to control the Palestinians. In a final a settlement, the Palestinians will have all the rights to rule themselves except those which threaten Israel's ability to protect itself.

A senior Palestinian official immediately responded that Israel must end its occupation of Palestinian land if it wants peace.I hope that Mr. Netanyahu will openly accept the two-state solution, negotiation on all core issues without exception, and stop the settlement activity, including natural growth, so we can have a partner in peace-making,said Saeb Erekat, chief negotiator for the Palestinian Authority.Netanyahu described Israel's neighbors as moderate, but, like Israel, threatened by radical Islam.

Netanyahu reaches out to Palestinians
Labor votes to join Netanyahu's coalition
Israel strives to achieve full peace with the Arab and Islamic world, and this is entirely the case today as the Arab and Islamic world -- which is moderate -- faces extremist Islam,he said.Netanyahu, leader of the center-right Likud Party, will lead a mostly right-leaning coalition that includes the hardline Yisrael Beytenu Party and the center-left Labor Party.His Cabinet is the largest in Israeli history, with 30 ministers and deputy ministers.Opposition leader Tzipi Livni ridiculed the size of the government.The Israeli public is a skinny person who today has had the swollen, overweight government placed on its head. It has ministers for nothing with all sorts of ridiculous titles,said Livni, the Kadima Party leader and former foreign minister who refused to join the Netanyahu coalition. CNN's Kevin Flower and Shira Medding contributed to this report.

Gaza Terrorists Greet Netanyahu’s Government with Rocket Fire
Nisan 6, 5769, 31 March 09 04:40by Avraham Zuroff

(IsraelNN.com) Terrorists fired a Kassam rocket, which exploded in an open field near a kibbutz (agricultural settlement) within the Shaar HaNegev region shortly after 3:30p.m. Tuesday. No injuries or damage were reported in the attack.It was the fourth rocket fired at the western Negev during the day. One of the other rockets came down in another part of the Sha'ar Hanegev region. Two others exploded in unpopulated areas of Sdot Hanegev. No injuries or damage from the rockets were reported. However, a 55-year-old woman who was alarmed by the Color Red early warning alert system that sounded in Sderot fell and broke her hip. In addition, a girl suffered emotional trauma from the alert. The two were evacuated for treatment.The attack followed Israel's elimination of two terrorists and the wounding of three others along the Gaza security fence near Kissufim earlier Tuesday after they tried to plant an explosive device there. Two heavily armed terrorists were eliminated and three more wounded when a Golani patrol unit spotted them trying to plant the explosives. The patrol summoned a helicopter, which fired on the terrorists. An Israeli soldier suffered light to moderate wounds in the ensuing clash. The soldier, who was hit by shrapnel, was airlifted to Soroka Medical Center in Be'er Sheva.

Responding to a question about this morning's elimination of the two terrorists, Defense Minister Ehud Barak said that it was good the IDF stood prepared and alert to defend the border.The Hamas terrorist organization that rules Gaza did not claim responsibility for the terrorist cell; however, the group did claim that its operatives had fired 18 mortar shells at the IDF unit during the confrontation.
In the past seven days, there have been at least two days in which there were rocket attacks launched from Gaza on communities in southern Israel. There were no reports of physical injuries or damage in any of the attacks.IsraelNationalNews.com

Arab States: Ultimatum to Israel Nisan 5, 5769, 30 March 09 01:41by Nissan Ratzlav-Katz

(IsraelNN.com) The Arab League is formulating an ultimatum to be issued Monday warning Israel that it must accept the League's terms for an Arab-Israel agreement. If Israel refuses, the Arab League statement indicates, the offer will be off the table. Meanwhile, the Arab League is hosting a leader charged with racist massacres of non-Arabs in his own country.If approved by the Arab leaders attending the Arab League meeting in Qatar on Monday, the statement will declare that the proposed agreement, credited to Saudi Arabia, will soon be rescinded if Israel fails to accept it. The draft was composed by Arab foreign ministers meeting ahead of the summit.
The 2002 Saudi Initiative, as it has come to be known, calls for: 1) full Israeli withdrawal from all lands under Jewish sovereignty since 1967, including Jerusalem, the Golan Heights and all of Judea and Samaria; 2) Israeli agreement to accept Arab war refugees; 3) Israeli acceptance of a Palestinian Arab state in Judea, Samaria and Gaza, with Jerusalem as its capital. In exchange, the Arab states would agree to enter into a peace agreement with Israel, and consider the Arab-Israeli conflict ended.

Knesset Member Ahmed Tibi, head of the Arab Renewal Movement faction, will be attending some Arab League meetings. According to the Hebrew-language Ha'aretz newspaper, Tibi is pushing for the Arab League to call on the international community to force Israel to accept the creation of a Palestinian state.Aside from the ultimatum, the Arab leaders will be discussing a roster of 26 items. Of these, a separate agenda item is devoted to Syria's claims on the Golan Heights. The League will also hold sessions on the incoming Israeli government and the situation in southern Lebanon, as well as the issue of Hamas-Fatah clashes in the Palestinian Authority. Other topics include the international financial crisis, the situation in Iraq and Somalia, as well as the International Criminal Court's arrest warrant for Sudan's leader Omar al-Bashir - who will be at the Qatar meeting despite the warrant. Bashir is charged with facilitating the mass killings of Sudanese non-Arabs in Darfur.
A key Arab leader, Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, will not be attending the Arab League Summit, according to the Arabic media, because of what he sees as Qatar's interference in negotiations over the return of abducted IDF soldier Gilad Shalit. In addition, Egypt is incensed at Qatar's intention to host Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad at the Arab League Summit, as well as what Mubarak sees as ongoing criticism of Egypt on the Al-Jazeera network, hosted in Qatar.IsraelNationalNews.com.

EU: Summit with Israel unlikely soon Mar. 31, 2009
JPost.com Staff , THE JERUSALEM POST

The EU has said it is unlikely to hold a summit with Israel in the near future as planned due to its dissatisfaction with Israeli construction in east Jerusalem and the continued blockade on the Gaza Strip, , Reuters reported Tuesday.Czech Foreign Minister Karel Schwarzenberg, whose nation currently holds the rotating EU presidency, told his country's Lidove Noviny newspaper that the union was not happy with some of the steps of the Israeli government, namely construction works close to Jerusalem but also access to Gaza, which is today very limited.The new Israeli government has not raised much excitement either,he added.The EU's foreign ministers in December approved a significant upgrade in the union's diplomatic relationship with Israel, despite Palestinian opposition and some calls in Europe that this should be linked to developments on the ground.The decision called for ad hoc summit meetings between Israel's prime minister and all EU heads of government, something that has never taken place before.It also called for Israel's foreign minister to meet with all 27 EU foreign ministers three times a year. It called for a strategic dialogue to discuss issues such as Iran, the diplomatic process and Syria. It also called for the inclusion of Israel in EU peacekeeping forces, and for an EU commitment to help Israel better integrate into UN agencies.

Meanwhile in Prague, President Shimon Peres met with Czech Prime Minister Mirek Topolanek Tuesday and warned him that it would be a mistake on the EU's part to give Israel the cold shoulder and delay the planned upgrade of EU-Israel relations due to our war on terror.Israel is at the forefront of the war on terror,he said.This is a war that we fight not only for our people, but for the entire world. Today terror is in Israel and tomorrow terror will be in Europe.In response, Topolanek said the Czech Republic would continue to take a friendly and supportive stance with Israel.During my visit to Israel with European leaders at the end of [Operation Cast Lead], we maintained a strong and resolute stance against Hamas and terrorism, and I plan to continue leading this position,he said.Herb Keinon contributed to this report.

1 Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.
2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.
3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.

17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,
19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

EZEKIEL 7:19
19 They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels: because it is the stumblingblock of their iniquity.

Chavez promotes petro-currency over dollar By BRIAN MURPHY, Associated Press Writer – Tue Mar 31, 2:59 pm ET

DOHA, Qatar – Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez tried Tuesday to court Arab support for another swipe at America as its economy stumbles: a proposal for a new, oil-backed currency to challenge the global prominence of the dollar.The idea never reached the full agenda of a summit of leaders from South America and the Arab League — and has little hope of gaining any momentum among the U.S. allies in the Middle East. But it managed to reflect broader sentiments at the gathering: That Western financial leadership has been deeply eroded by the economic meltdown.Chavez set the tone moments after arriving in Qatar, proposing a petro-currency that would have the backing of oil-rich nations such as Venezuela and its Arab partners in OPEC. Chavez has tried before, with little success, to undercut the dollar's role as the world's leading commercial currency.

The dollar, however, is facing real pressures elsewhere.

China has struck deals — most recently this week with Argentina — to conduct trade in currencies other than the dollar, and Beijing's central bank governor has proposed creating a new reserve currency comprising a basket of global currencies controlled by the International Monetary Fund.Iran has proposed replacing the dollar with the euro or other currencies to set worldwide oil prices, and other nations are swapping some foreign currency reserves in favor of the euro.Venezuela supports ... efforts to find an alternative reserve currency,Chavez told the summit.Chavez plans stops in both Iran and China — in addition to Japan — after the one-day gathering, which focused heavily on trade issues but also touched on Arab worries about rival Iran's growing influence in Latin America.The global economic crisis erupted outside our regions, but nevertheless effect our economies, said a statement by business envoys from the two regions, who called for a new international financial system that includes greater influence from outside the West.OPEC members — including Venezuela and many Arab Leagues states — have been hit hard by falling oil prices, which dipped below $48 a barrel on Tuesday.Chavez predicted oil prices to rise and called $80 a barrel a fair level, according to a government statement. On Monday, Qatar's oil minister, Abdullah bin Hamad al-Attiyah, said his nation was OK with crude oil at $50 a barrel this year.Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva told the gathering that the economic crisis is having deep repercussions on all economies, but it offers an opportunity to correct the financial system and restore balance to global trade.

Delegates also encouraged expanding technology exchanges, including nuclear engineering. Argentina helped build one of Egypt's nuclear reactors and hopes to continue civil nuclear cooperation.The summit's closing statement demanded that all countries of the region, without exception join the Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty and open unclear facilities to U.N. inspection. It also appealed for nuclear weapons to be banned from the Middle East.The message cited no specific nation, but many Arab leaders share Western worries that Iran could uses it nuclear program to develop atomic weapons, setting off a regional arms race. Iran says it only seeks reactors to produce electricity.Meanwhile, Israel has two nuclear reactors — ostensibly for research and scientific purposes — but is widely believed to have developed nuclear weapons. Israel does not comment on its arms capabilities.For Arab leaders, commercial ties are a direct way to counter Iran's increasing footholds in Latin America, particularly Tehran's connections to Chavez and Bolivian President Evo Morales. The estimated $21 billion trade includes oil and gas from the Middle East and steel and agricultural products from South America.The final statement from the summit gave no mention of the Arab League's declaration Monday rejecting the International Criminal Court's charges against Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir for alleged war crimes in Darfur.Chile's President, Michelle Bachelet, gave no details the South American refusal to join the Arab denunciation but suggested it reflected the need to acknowledge the rights of the ethnic African rebels fighting the Arab-led government in Khartoum.We, in South America, especially after suffering from several political dictatorships, understand very well that the struggle of people for their rights,she said.Associated Press Writer Ian James in Caracas, Venezuela, contributed to this report.

Argentina, China sign tentative currency swap deal By JEANNETTE NEUMANN, Associated Press Writer – Mon Mar 30, 10:23 pm ET

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina – Argentina and China have tentatively agreed to swap $10 billion worth of their currencies to enable South America's second-largest economy to avoid using dollars in trade between the nations, banking officials said Monday.It is the first such swap between China and a Latin American country, and allows Argentine businesses to buy Chinese imports directly in yuans. The move aims to help Argentina by cutting trading costs, giving it access to hard currency and strengthening its financial position as it is battered by the global financial crisis, analysts say.

China — which has been pushing to end the dollar's international dominance as a currency — has stuck similar deals to bypass the U.S. currency with South Korea, Malaysia, Belarus and Indonesia, the Xinhua News Agency reported.The Argentina deal was announced by Zhou Xiaochuan, governor of the People's Bank of China, at the Inter-American Development Bank meeting in Medellin, Colombia. A source with the Argentine Central Bank confirmed it Monday, speaking on condition of anonymity because the announcement was not yet official.Analysts said the swap could be an example of China's growing economic influence in Latin America.China may be trying to exert and deepen their global influence,said Win Thin, senior currency strategist at Brown Brothers Harriman in New York.They've been investing in countries no one else really wants to touch — such as mineral-rich countries in Africa and now Argentina.

Argentina primarily imports electronics, computers and chemical products from China, while the South American country exports agricultural commodities such as wheat, soy and corn, said Ernesto Fernandez Taboada, executive director of the Argentine Chinese Chamber of Production, Industry and Trade.While the tentative deal could signal increasing Chinese interest in Argentina, its trade is far greater with neighboring Brazil. Brazil, the region's largest economy, represents 42 percent of Latin America's trade with China, while Argentina represents only 12 percent, Taboada said.

Argentine officials presented the tentative currency swap between the countries as a contingency plan to be turned to when necessary in order to shore up liquidity.The swap would help Argentina by eliminating intermediate administrative steps required to exchange Argentine pesos for dollars and by shoring up liquidity in an indebted nation.It's the first time that China is helping liquidity here in Latin America, said Marcos Mollica, a Latin America fixed income strategist with UBS AG in San Pablo, Brazil said.It could be the first of other, broader roles for China.

Hannity, Morris Agree with Conspiracy People About New World Order
Kurt Nimmo Infowars March 31, 2009

In the video here, the former Clintonite Dick Morris, who is now a darling of Fox News, tells Sean Hannity the globalists will put the American economy under international regulation and those people who have been yelling, oh, the UN is going to take over… they’ve been crazy, but now they’re right.Former Clintonite Dick Morris declares those people who have been yelling, oh, the UN is going to take over… they’ve been crazy, but now they’re right.Those conspiracy people, Sean Hannity interjects, had suggested that for years… you’re not wrong.It’s the international regulation of the financial institutions we have to worry about, warns Dick Morris. It will happen under IMF control… Remember, the IMF is run by the Europeans and backed by Americans.It’s too bad Mr. Morris didn’t give us the rest of the story. The IMF is a loan sharking operation created by the bankers under the Bretton Woods scheme and its primary purpose to date has been to get third world nations into hock so they can be more effectively looted. It is now poised, as Morris eludes, to embark on a far more ambitious bankster scam — to initiate something called global quantitative easing by printing billions of dollars worth of a global super-currency, deceptively billed as a way to address the economic crisis manufactured by the global elite.

Alistair Darling and senior figures in the US Treasury have been encouraging the Fund to issue hundreds of billions of dollars worth of so-called Special Drawing Rights (SDRs) in the coming months as part of its campaign to prevent the recession from turning into a global depression,the Telegraph reported on March 16.SDRs are now based on four currencies — the US dollar, the Japanese yen, the euro and the British pound. They are used largely as a unit of account by the IMF and other international organizations.Read between the lines and you get to the bottom of the real reason for the issuance of SDRs — to push for a world currency. Recall a few days ago Zhou Xiaochuan, China’s central bank’s governor, calling for the IMF to forge a new world reserve currency.China demands a settlement system between the SDRs and other currencies so that they can be used in international trade and financial transactions. The IMF would manage these SDRs and they would gradually replace existing reserve currencies.As envisioned by our rulers, a world super-currency will ultimately require a world government. Morris blames the Europeans for this and he is only partially right — it is a scam long ago devised by international bankers primarily based in Europe and Britain and backed, as Morris admits, by the American financial elite.The issuance of paper SDRs would please the plutocratic international bankers to no end, writes Robert Bradshaw, and this move would allow them a golden opportunity to print fiat paper money in huge quantities to flood the world. We can be sure that the fat cats [the bankers] would love to have a new paper world currency in their greedy little hands. Since they already control the IMF and most world central banks, such a new global currency would definitely fit into their plans for world rule.It is hardly surprising that SDRs and world currency will be on the agenda at the G20 this week. The globalist George Soros has urged Obama to push the SDR agenda and has warned that if a world currency is not established and the global economy collapses (as planned) the United States shall cease to be the dominant financial power and China is liable to come up ahead.” Soros is merely running a time-tested shell game in an effort to get the U.S. to pony up for what will ultimately be its demise, again as planned. China is the model to be used for our totalitarian future.Dick Morris and the disinfo operative Sean Hannity may indeed be alarmed by this obvious push for world government. It is interesting to note that Hannity has only lately come around to the existence of the New World Order — formerly in the realm of crazy conspiracy theories — now that Obama is in the White House and the Democrats in control of Congress. Hannity and Morris are simply reading from a provided script.Point is, the New World Order wants you to know what they have in mind for you. It tickles them to give you a preview of things to come now that the New Savior is in office and enjoying high popularity — a one world government with a high-tech control grid overlay designed to usher in a brave new world of hellish serfdom and eventually the dream of our eugenicist rulers: a mass culling of the herd who are considered little more than useless eaters.

EU welcomes US move on CO2 amid climate change worries
ANDREW RETTMAN Today APR 1,09 @ 16:32 CET

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - A new US bill on cutting CO2 emissions will help clinch a global deal in Copenhagen later this year, the European Commission said on Wednesday (1 April), while proposing to use money from CO2 cap-and-trade to finance Europe's response to climate change. Democrat congressmen Henry Waxman and Ed Markey on Tuesday put forward a new legal initiative to cut US emissions by 20 percent by 2020 compared to 2005 levels, in a sign that the Obama administration plans to make good on election campaign promises on the environment.The Waxman-Markey bill is less ambitious than the EU's existing promise to cut CO2 by 20 percent by 2020 compared to 1990 levels.The EU and US initiatives come ahead of a major UN conference in Copenhagen in December on global emissions targets after the current worldwide Kyoto Protocol deal expires in 2012.We welcome this. It's very encouraging, EU environment commissioner Stavros Dimas said on the draft US law. It's not exactly what we have in the EU and what science is saying is necessary ...[but] this will send a very strong message to Copenhagen and facilitate an agreement.A UN scientific panel in March updated predictions that on present trends global sea levels will rise by up to 59 cm by 2100, saying the increase could exceed 1 metre. EU research indicates that the most climate-change vulnerable areas in the EU are in southern Europe, the Mediterranean basin, the Arctic region and the Alps, densely-populated floodplains, islands and coastal regions. Extreme weather events are likely to cause crop failures as well as human tragedy. Unseasonal heatwaves are to impact the energy industry. Rural irrigation will need to be restructured. Lack of snow could see ski-related tourism collapse in Alpine areas.

Mr Dimas in a white paper on Wednesday unveiled commission proposals to find out more about how the EU needs to adapt to climate change in future.The commission wants to create by 2012 a new data base to co-ordinate member states' information on climate change-related risks and to set up a climate change adaptation steering group composed of EU and member state officials.The group will present its first report in spring 2010 in preparation for a comprehensive climate change adaptation strategy to kick in after 2013.Brussels is yet to calculate how much it will cost to bail out climate-affected industries, renovate buildings and infrastructure and support new social schemes for people fleeing the worst effects of the coming changes.

Show me the money

A report by UK economist Lord Stern in 2006 indicated that investment in new buildings and infrastructure alone will cost the combined EU27 countries between €6 billion and €58 billion in the coming years. For the cost, we don't yet have the data,Mr Dimas said.The white paper suggests that the bloc may in future need to launch EU-level insurance schemes for buildings or businesses located in flood-risk zones that the private insurance sector refuses to touch.It also indicates that post-2013, up to 50 percent of EU states' income from the Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) - the EU's CO2 cap-and-trade programme - will need to be channelled into climate adaptation measures.When we have a recession, the ETS reflects the economic circumstances and the installations covered pay a lower price. When there is an upturn, they pay more,he said on the ETS' capacity to generate climate change adaptation funding.I hope the recession will be gone in a few months or a year or so.

EU pushes male all-body shaving as response to crisis
LEIGH PHILLIPS Today APR 1,09 @ 08:02 CET

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - The European Commission will on Wednesday (1 April) propose to spend €80 million to encourage European men to purchase all-body electric shavers.
The funds form a fresh stimulus move to encourage development of what the commission is calling an innovative and green new product market.Market research shows that in tough times, disposable razors appeal to consumers, European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso told EUobserver in advance of the announcement. There is a real danger that such a shift could exacerbate Europe's land-fill problem. As I have said over and over, we cannot let the economic crisis undermine our environmental targets.

At the same time, we need to be smart in where we apply stimulus funds, encouraging new, green innovation that can help Europe exit the crisis while making the shift to a low-carbon, low-resource-intensive economy,he added.Given the accusations of protectionism that appeared following member state announcements for support for domestic car industries made earlier this year, the commission is keen that the funds, which will come from unspent sheep-shearing subsidies, be distributed at EU level.The Netherlands, home to electrical goods manufacturer Philips - the owner of the Philishave brand, and Germany, home to Braun, are believed to be highly supportive of the commission's proposed scheme.The shaving industry for its part believes men to be a virtually untapped but rapidly expanding new market for depilatory equipment, and says that the EU plan could create upwards of 12,000 new jobs.According to Philips, male grooming is one of the fastest growing segments within the personal care market - up 24 percent in 2008, while male all-body electric shavers grew a startling 53 percent year-on-year.Under the plan, male European citizens between the ages of 25 and 49 would be offered a €23 coupon to trade in their disposable razors for any EU-produced electric body shaver. The funds target this particular age bracket because the commission believes all younger men are already in the habit of shaving their back, chest and legs.

Bob Geldof

The inspiration for the move came when Mr Barroso was sharing a pint of Guinness in Kitty O'Shea's, an Irish pub opposite the commission's Brussels headquarters, with pop star Bob Geldof on St. Patrick's Day earlier in the month to discuss market-friendly solutions to poverty in Africa.I was in the gents, because you know these large half-litre-glasses, er, pints, go straight through you, and I noticed that the young men in the Philishave advertisements above the urinals had no hair under their armpits or on their legs,said the president.And then there's the one with the clean-shaven kiwi fruit.So when I came back to the bar, I asked my dear friend Bob what this was all about, he continued, and he told me: The lads are shaving just about every thing these days - armpits, legs, everything.Meanwhile, according to manufacturers, older men already prefer electric shavers to disposable razors, and so those that have face-oriented shavers as well as those 50 and older are instead to be offered a €5 coupon for an adapter that enables their existing devices to trim other parts.US shaving giants Gillette and Remington have immediately attacked the scheme, saying that the EU is engaging in protectionist, Buy EU beggar-thy-neighbour policies and that they are considering levelling a complaint over the matter with the WTO.However, a source close to the American manufacturers said that no decision on such action had yet been taken, and that, privately, senior executives thought that the EU move could yet do a lot to boost the overall market and even give them an opening to pressure their own government for similar subsidies.Luxembourgeois Green MEP Claude Turmes, a keen cyclist, cautiously welcomed the new monies.

I had not initially thought of the men's grooming product market as a potential recipient of stimulus funds, and we certainly didn't include it alongside energy efficiency and public transport spending in the launch of our Green New Deal manifesto for the June elections, but perhaps we should have done,he said.So long as the electricity used to power the shavers comes from genuinely renewable sources such as wind and solar power and not nuclear or biofuels, there's almost no environmental downside. Barroso makes a compelling point.I'm not about to shave off my ponytail, however,he warned.

High-level expert group

Lobbying transparency activists nevertheless were scathing about the announcement, and accused the commission of caving in to heavy lobbying from the shaving industry.
It's no coincidence that the announcement is made on the same day as the corporate-financed International Day for the Prevention of Hairy Backs,said Olivier Hoedeman of Alter-EU, a transparency pressure group.In the lead-up to the announcement, Alter-EU found that a commission high-level expert group on New Directions in Male Grooming Habits was stacked with representatives of Philishave, Braun, a Hungarian animal clipper firm and Speedo.And only a single representative from the non-shaving community,which he defined as: You know, hippies.

Air Canada stock sinks as restructuring weighed By Jeffrey Jones MAR 31,09

CALGARY, Alberta (Reuters) – Air Canada shares sank 22 percent on Tuesday as analysts speculated that the resignation of its CEO, and the naming of a replacement known for his restructuring expertise, may signal the airline's second filing for creditor protection in six years.Montie Brewer, who has led the airline through the industry downturn and has had to scramble to raise cash while competing with rival WestJet Airlines Ltd, will be replaced as chief executive on Wednesday by Calin Rovinescu, a key figure in Air Canada's last corporate revamp under bankruptcy protection.Air Canada's class B shares fell 26 Canadian cents to 89 Canadian cents on the Toronto Stock Exchange, representing a drop of more than 90 percent in the past year. Its class A shares fell 24 Canadian cents to 84 Canadian cents.Rovinescu is a lawyer who was Air Canada's vice-president of corporate development and strategy from 2000 to 2004, a period that included the airline's last restructuring and emergence from creditor protection. He subsequently co-founded Genuity Capital Markets, a Canadian investment bank.While the challenges in front of us are large, we will continue to build upon the successes of the airline to date and deliver a quality product for our customers, employees and shareholders,Rovinescu said in a statement.There were more changes in the executive suite on Tuesday, as Chief Operating Officer Bill Bredt announced he too is stepping down, to be replaced by Duncan Dee.Air Canada shares have tumbled as the industry downturn that first took hold in the United States spilled into Canada.The airline has cut capacity by 7 percent, which meant 2,000 layoffs, and has been feverishly working to raise capital to shore up its balance sheet.It also faces a pension deficit and brisk competition on fares and routes from Calgary-based WestJet.Analyst Jacques Kavafian said Rovinescu's appointment signals another restructuring because of his legal experience and his unpopularity with the carrier's unions.

In fact, we believe that his resignation from Air Canada in 2004 was a condition for union acceptance of wage concessions,Kavafian said in a note.Bringing him on just as new labor agreements are to be negotiated does not square with the unions' historical sentiments.Kavafian also took note that Rovinescu will take up his post six years to the day after Air Canada last filed for creditor protection.Airline spokeswoman Angela Mah declined to comment on what might be in the cards for Air Canada, beyond what was in the statement issued late on Monday.

It made no mention of plans to seek creditor protection.

Suddenly and dramatically, bringing in someone like Mr. Rovinescu ... speaks to the extreme turmoil currently taking place at Air Canada,Ben Cherniavsky, an analyst at Raymond James, wrote in a research note.Cherniavsky has pegged the chances of Air Canada's survival at 50/50, at best.Transport Minister John Baird said he is concerned with the mounting financial problems at the flagship carrier.So it has my active attention,Baird told reporters in Ottawa.I met with one of the unions this morning. I was in touch with management last evening, and we'll be watching the issue very closely.The Canadian Auto Workers union, which represents more than 5,000 Air Canada employees, called Rovinescu's re-entry into the airline disturbing.The union said it feared its members would be threatened with cuts to pension benefits under another restructuring effort. It had opposed parent company ACE Aviation Holdings Inc's sale in recent years of Air Canada's affiliates, such as its frequent flier program and regional feeder carrier.(Additional reporting by Scott Haggett and Randall Palmer; editing by Rob Wilson)

42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.
44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.
45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?
46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.
48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;
49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;
50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,
51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Expert: NKorea has several nuclear warheads By PAUL ALEXANDER, Associated Press Writer – Tue Mar 31, 10:42 am ET

SEOUL, South Korea – Nuclear-armed North Korea warned Japan on Tuesday that intervening in Pyongyang's impending rocket launch would be considered an act of war.

North Korea says it will send a communications satellite into orbit on a multi-stage rocket between April 4 and 8. The U.S., South Korea and Japan think the communist regime is using the launch to test long-range missile technology, and they warn Pyongyang would face sanctions under a U.N. Security Council resolution banning the country from ballistic activity.Japan has deployed battleships and Patriot missile interceptors off its northern coast to shoot down any rocket debris that the North has said might fall over the area.Tokyo has said it is only protecting its territory and has no intention of trying to shoot down the rocket itself, but North Korea said it is not convinced and accused Japan of inciting militarism at home to justify developing a nuclear weapons program of its own.If Japan tries to intercept the satellite, the North's army will consider this as the start of Japan's war of re-invasion more than six decades after the Second World War and mercilessly destroy all its interceptor means and citadels with the most powerful military means,the North's official Korean Central News Agency said Tuesday.China, North Korea's neighbor and often-estranged ally, continued to appeal for all the powers in the region to show restraint and refrain from any action that would further complicate the situation, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang told reporters in Beijing.But Japanese Prime Minister Taro Aso said he is ready to pursue punishment by the Security Council if North Korea fires the rocket, which already is on the launch pad.It would be crucial for the international community to make concerted action, Aso told a news conference after both houses of Japan's parliament passed a resolution strongly urging the North to forego the launch.

Daniel Pinkston — a Seoul-based expert for the International Crisis Group think tank, which provides detailed analysis about North Korea — said the communist nation has two underground nuclear warhead storage facilities near bases for its medium-range Rodong missiles, which are capable of striking Japan. The North is believed to have five to eight warheads, he said.But he stressed it is unclear if the communist nation has mastered the technology necessary to miniaturize the warheads and put them on Rodong missiles, which have a range of 620 to 930 miles (1,000 to 1,500 kilometers).

The National Intelligence Service, South Korea's main spy agency, said it could not confirm Pinkston's claims.Pinkston said he obtained the information from intelligence officials from a country or countries that he wouldn't identify.Their assessment is that North Korea has deployed and assembled nuclear warheads for Rodong missiles, Pinkston told The Associated Press.Kim Tae-woo, a missile expert at the state-run Korea Institute for Defense Analyses in Seoul, said the North has been focusing on efforts to mount nuclear warheads on the Rodongs because the long-range Taepodong series has not been fully deployed yet.Rodong is the most likely weapon to be mounted with nuclear warheads,Kim said. He said it's also natural for the North to try to put a nuclear warhead on a missile with a longer range.Two U.S. destroyers are believed to have departed from South Korea to monitor the rocket launch. South Korea is also dispatching its Aegis-equipped destroyer, according to a Seoul military official who asked not to be named, citing department policy.North Korea claimed Tuesday that the U.S. and South Korea have conducted about 190 spy flights over its territory in March, including over the sea off the launch site on its northeast coast.Further fueling tensions, hundreds of U.S. and South Korean troops conducted an air assault exercise Tuesday that the two countries have claimed is unrelated to the rocket launch. Pyongyang has strongly condemned similar joint drills in the South as preparations to invade the North. The two allies conducted large-scale annual exercises for 12 days in March, prompting angry reaction from Pyongyang, including threats to South Korean passenger planes and repeated halts in cross-border traffic.

Adding to the complexity of the situation, the North announced Tuesday it will indict and try two American journalists accused of crossing the border illegally from China on March 17 and engaging in hostile acts.The North may try to use the detentions as a bargaining tool after the rocket launch, said Yang Moo-jin, an analyst at Seoul's University of North Korean Studies.Associated Press writers Jae-soon Chang and Hyung-jin Kim in Seoul, and Shino Yuasa in Tokyo, contributed to this report.

G20 Terrorist Plot Exposed As Teenagers With Plastic Guns And Fireworks
Steve Watson Infowars.net Tuesday, March 31, 2009

Yesterday’s reports of a foiled terrorist plot in relation to the G20 protests in London have been scaled back after it was revealed that the house raided by police contained only plastic guns and fireworks.The three men, aged 25, 19 and 16, and two women, both 20, all live in Plymouth and the surrounding area,reported The Guardian.

They are political activists unaffiliated to any terrorist organisation, and were arrested at addresses in Plymouth. They are being held under terrorism legislation. The explosive devices were made from simple fireworks, police said.Nevertheless, police have called in Royal Navy bomb disposal experts to deal with the weapons.The police have also said that they recovered allegedly extremist materials, without further expanding on what they might be.At a press conference at Crownhill police station in Plymouth, Assistant Chief Constable Paul Netherton said the investigation was sparked when a 25-year-old man was arrested for spray-painting on a wall in Plymouth city centre - but would not comment on the nature of the graffiti,reported the Press Association.It has since come to light that the graffiti read Antifa which is the name of an anti-racist movement that advocates the use of violence against extreme right-wing groups.The youths, who were initially arrested on drug charges, are now being held under the terrorism act.Meanwhile, fresh reports have emerged alleging that anarchists are planning to pose as peaceful protesters as a cover to seed chaos in the capital.Hundreds of activists are hoping to fool police by pretending to be part of legitimate demonstrations, before breaking off and storming city banks, according to the London Evening Standard which says it infiltrated an anarchist leaders meeting yesterday.Other reports have revealed that the SAS is being readied to react to any terrorist activity.Rather bizarrely, it has also been revealed an entire network of central London’s wireless CCTV cameras will be turned off during the protests because they have been deemed to be illegal.

Obama loves Queen, avoids own goal on football
APR 1,09

LONDON (AFP) — Barack Obama said Wednesday he loved Britain's Queen Elizabeth II, but knew better than to be drawn into the sporting minefield represented by England's World Cup qualifier against Ukraine.Some British commentators took offence at the US president's treatment of British Prime Minister Gordon Brown in Washington last month, and Obama seemed to go out of his way to show respect for the US-Britain special relationship.Asked what he liked about Britain, Obama mentioned the people and said: There is just a extraordinary affinity and kinship that we have.We owe so much to England; that when you come here there's that sense of familiarity, as well as difference, that makes it just a special place,he said during a press conference with Brown at the Foreign Office.But offered a chance to pick the winner of the big football match at Wembley on Wednesday, Obama demurred, noting the stir whipped up in the United States over his picks for the annual college basketball tournament.

The last thing I'm going to do is wade into European football,Obama said, at least using the correct local term for the game Americans call soccer.That would be a mistake. I didn't get a briefing on that, but I sense that would be a mistake.Then, as an afterthought at the end of the press conference in a room dripping with gold trimmings, Obama offered a few thoughts about the Queen, who he was due to meet later on Wednesday at Buckingham Palace.There's one last thing that I should mention that I love about Great Britain, and that is the Queen,Obama said.I'm very much looking forward to meeting her for the first time later this evening. And as you might imagine, Michelle has been really thinking that through,he said, in a reference to his wife.I think in the imagination of people throughout America, I think what the Queen stands for and her decency and her civility, what she represents, that's very important.
