Feds Radiating Americans At Internal Checkpoints - While illegals and hardcore drugs flood into the country from across the border, authorities target truck drivers in Atlanta Paul Joseph Watson Prison Planet.com Wednesday, September 29, 2010
http://www.prisonplanet.com/feds-radiating-americans-at-internal-checkpoints.html
Federal authorities do not concern themselves about the flood of illegal immigrants and drugs crossing the border every day, they’re more worried about radiating American truck drivers at internal checkpoints with mobile scanners that shoot dangerous x-rays through both vehicles and passengers.As we reported last month, the federal government has acquired hundreds of backscatter x-ray scanners mounted in vans that they are now using to randomly scan vehicles, passengers and homes in complete violation of the 4th amendment and with wanton disregard for any health consequences.An example of their expanding use was reported by WSBTV yesterday, after federal agents from several agencies, including Homeland Security, the Department of Transportation, and the TSA, set up an internal checkpoint on Interstate 20 just west of Atlanta and detained truck drivers for half an hour or more at a state-owned inspection station while they were scanned with a bomb detection device.Officials admitted there was no specific threat that justified the checkpoint, and although it was labeled a counter-terror operation, the scans were also being conducted in the name of safety.
Backscatter x-ray vision devices mounted on trucks are already being deployed inside the United States to scan passing individuals and vehicles in complete violation of the Fourth Amendment. Similar to naked airport body scanners, the devices fire x-rays outwards which are then absorbed by dense objects or the human body. Frequent exposure to low doses of radiation can cause cancer and birth defects, according to a report by the Inter-Agency Committee on Radiation Safety.American Science & Engineering, a company based in Billerica, Massachusetts, has sold many of the devices to U.S. law enforcement agencies, who are already using them on the streets for security purposes.Without a warrant, the government doesn’t have a right to peer beneath your clothes without probable cause,” points out Marc Rotenberg, executive director of EPIC. Even airport scans are typically used only as a secondary security measure. If the scans can only be used in exceptional cases in airports, the idea that they can be used routinely on city streets is a very hard argument to make.As we have warned from the very beginning, everything you see being rolled out in the airports is eventually designed to hit the streets as Americans become prisoners in their own communities, constantly harassed, scanned and surveilled by an oppressive state.Mobile scanners for crowds that would be used at football matches and other public events have already been announced, as have proposals to fit lamp posts with CCTV cameras that would X-ray scan passers-by and undress them in order to trap terror suspects.Body and vehicle scanners are just one tool authorities plan to implement on a widespread basis as part of our deepening decline into a hi-tech militarized police state.
Homeland Security is already implementing technology to be enforced at security events which purportedly reads malintent on behalf of an individual who passes through a checkpoint. The video below explains how Future Attribute Screening Technology (FAST) checkpoints will conduct physiological and behavioral tests in order to weed out suspected terrorists and criminals.The clip shows individuals who attend security events being led into trailers before they are interrogated as to whether they are terrorists while lie detector-style computer programs analyze their physiological responses. The subjects are asked about their whereabouts, and if they are attempting to smuggle bombs or recording devices into the expo, proving that the technology is intended to be used at public events and not just airports. Individuals who do not satisfy the first lie detector-style test are then asked additional questions.The implementation of Checkpoint USA, where citizens are routinely stopped, searched and radiated by federal VIPER teams is further evidence of how America is crumbling into a Soviet-style police state where the presumption of innocent until proven guilty is abolished and the 4th amendment eviscerated.
Privacy organizations and civil rights lawyers need to activate immediately to bring lawsuits against the federal government for unleashing this tyranny upon the American people as part of the bid to create a chilling atmosphere that ends all dissent and makes the people fearful of their government as they are made to prove they are not criminals or terrorists on a day to day basis while a high-tech slave pen is constructed around their entire existence.Paul Joseph Watson is the editor and writer for Prison Planet.com.

Age of Censorship and Internet Trade Wars Francis Anthony Govia
Activist Post September 29, 2010
New U.S. legislation will impact every user of the Internet. The Combating Online Infringement and Counterfeits Act would empower the U.S. Department of Justice to shut down, or block access to, websites found to be dedicated to infringing activities. The bill also contains provisions to block sites with domain names and Top-Level Domains (TLDs) that are maintained by overseas companies, which exist outside the U.S. legal jurisdiction and enforcement mechanism. The Justice Department would obtain court orders directing United States-based Internet Service Providers to stop resolving the IP addresses that allow customers in the United States to access the infringing websites. As a result, the sites will be inaccessible to U.S.-based Web users who do not use some sort of proxy service. The bill was read twice and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary last Monday; it is sponsored by Senators Hatch, Leahy, Klobuchar, Whitehouse, Schumer, Kohl, Specter, Durbin, Bayh, Voinovich, and Feinstein.The ramifications of more regulation will result in the free and booming frontier of cyberspace, now functioning as the gold rush for enterprise, ceasing to exist. Photo: Chris Metcalf. The legislation is expected to have strong support in Hollywood, labor unions and manufacturers, but in some circles — namely grassroots political organizations, alternative press, and Internet start-ups — the response has been lukewarm, and even questioning. They are concerned that the other purposes of the legislation include censorship and, if made law, will employ the Justice Department to police the Internet, eventually resulting in the disruption of the free flow of information and trade globally.To some extent, their concerns are formed by experience. There have been examples of business censorship, and government legislation to curtail what is viewed on the Internet. Infowars reported recently that London’s St. Pancras International, one of the biggest transport hubs in the West,implemented stringent filters that block users of their Wi-Fi service from accessing even mildly political websites.Sites like prisonplanet.com and thinkprogress.org were not available to customers in some areas. There are plans in Australia to promulgate legislation to institute a mandatory, countrywide filtering system,which supporters say is designed to keep out child abuse content, but which blocks a much wider variety of content and topics. And recently when media reported about an Iranian website with cartoons denying the Holocaust, some viewers in the U.S. discovered that access to the site was blocked.
Granted, there is recognition in Washington that the Internet is the new frontier for global enterprise, but some perceive that Washington still views the world through the lens of a bygone era. A critic of the bill told me that many nations, including the United States, legislate for businesses founded in a brick-and-mortar world; and attempts to regulate the Internet would be like turning back the clock.
Nations will act independently and this will be detrimental to customers that use the Internet near and far,advised the critic.A similar sentiment was echoed by former Italian Prime Minister, Romano Prodi, in a speech at the Foreign Ministry Faculty of International Relations in Tehran. Mr. Prodi suggested that Italy within Europe must play a greater role in matters of global importance, and that may entail Europe’s acting with greater independence of the United States. The message, though given on a different topic, is not one that instills confidence to those who see governments encroaching on their privacy, and would prefer unrestricted use, or less regulation, of the services for which they pay.The U.S. legislation for infringement is written to tackle many concerns, and is certainly not archaic in regard to lawmakers’ ambition to affect what goes on well beyond the scope of U.S. jurisdiction.For infringing sites outside the United States, it provides for in rem action in the District of Columbia to prevent the importation into the United States of goods and services directed to U.S. residents. The effect of this importation must be that the owner or operator of the infringing site must harm intellectual property rights holders that are residents of the United States.The Justice Department will be granted power to serve court orders upon the registry where the domain name registrar is not located in the United States, and upon receipt of such an order, the domain registry must suspend operations of, and lock, the domain name of the infringing site.
During the action intended to lock the domain name,a court may determine, at a minimum threshold, that an Internet site is not conducting business to residents in the United States if the Internet site states that it is not intended, and has measures to prevent, infringing materials from being accessed in or delivered to the United States,including other provisions in subsection (d)(2)(B). The owner or operator of the infringing site shall also have recourse to petition the Justice Department to remove his domain name from an offending list, or petition the court to modify, suspend, or vacate the order in accordance with subsection (h)(1)(B).The bill has an immunity clause which protects any entity from a cause of action in U.S. courts or administration agency for any action reasonably calculated to comply with an action intended to prevent the infringing site from continuing to do business with U.S.-based customers, receive financial transactions, and other matters under subsection (e)(3).The U.S. legislation does not appear to put the onus on any businesses, such as Internet Service Providers, to stop known infringement from occurring. This is an interesting stance. In February, an Australian ISP won a precedent-setting copyright infringement lawsuit (Down Under) against the Motion Picture Industry. The bill sponsors may be cognizant of this ruling.
Softpedia reported that 34 U.S. movie studios and broadcasters filed a lawsuit in Australia against iiNet after the ISP refused to send warning letters to its customers who illegally downloaded movies using BitTorrent. The Australian Justice, Dennis Cowdrey, ruled that while iiNet had knowledge of infringements occurring, and did not act to stop them, such findings do not necessitate a finding that the ISP authorized the infringing activities. Possibly, Hollywood supporters of the U.S. infringement legislation now agree with Cowdrey’s ruling that to ask ISPs to police the Internet would open them any number of legal claims for anything that might happen over their pipes,and that would engender strong opposition to the legislation among ISPs in the United States. However, to take on the responsibility of policing the Internet may not seem a burden to Obama’s Justice Department.Certainly, Hollywood will welcome any new infringement legislation aimed at stemming the loss of royalties through piracy and copyright violation in the digital age. Infringers often meet efforts to protect intellectual property with resilient and thought-out action to thwart the law. As a law intern in Thailand I learned, for example, that illegal duplication facilities for CDs and DVDs existed in mobile transportation. Persons engaged in copyright violations avoided the ability of local enforcement to easily locate them and shut them down. It is a sure bet that those engaged in infringing activities overseas will find ways and new technology to evade laws promulgated by a foreign government (like the U.S.) that will have no jurisdiction over them.The Obama Justice Department, which tapped Hollywood lawyers, may be charged to police Intellectual Property — an assignment to which attorneys for President George W. Bush were strongly opposed. The Republican President threatened to veto a previous version of the bill sponsored by the same Sens. Patrick Leahy and Arlen Specter.In correspondence to the Senators, attorneys for President Bush wrote that they strongly opposed expanding the powers of the Justice Department. Doing so, they said, could undermine the Department’s prosecution of criminal cases and transform it into an office serving as pro bono lawyers for private copyright holders.It is obvious during this era when citizens’ rights are curtailed and infringed upon, with the bipartisan sponsorship of the bill and the composition of the current administration, that the infringement legislation has a better chance of becoming law. But will it open a Pandora’s Box? Will it do exactly what critics suspect it is intended to do: censor more of the Internet, create bottlenecks that will allow governments to intrude on the flow of information and services around the world, and do possible damage to a wider spectrum of businesses (other than those it is intended to protect)?
Many of the dynamic economies that U.S. businesses now compete against were born out of things other than a free market; and other economies are driven, or manipulated by State controls, as is the case of China. Foreign nations may follow the U.S. lead in writing laws to regulate the Internet and address their concerns, but not with the results U.S. legislators necessarily hope to engender.Through retaliation, or even pretext, governments may decide to regulate, or shut down legitimate Internet traffic and services to violate human rights, hinder trade, and to engage in industry espionage. We already have examples of these developments with China’s efforts to regulate Google, and the recent firestorm when India and other nations, acting within their security concerns, decided to take action to regulate Blackberry and gain access to users’ encrypted corporate e-mails and messages. The offices of Sen. Byron L Dorgan and Rep. Sander M. Levin of the Congressional-Executive Commission on China undertook a hearing in March to investigate if China’s efforts to regulate the Internet contravene free trade and human rights. Delegates to the hearing cited that:China’s Internet users remain subject to the arbitrary dictates of state censorship. More than a dozen agencies are involved in implementing a host of laws, regulations, and other tools to try to keep information and ideas from the Chinese people . . . China’s censorship practices and control of the Internet have had a terrible impact on human rights advocates. These include ordinary people who promote political freedoms or try to organize online . . . attempting to share information about ongoing government repression.Internet censorship and regulation in China have serious economic implications for many U.S. companies . . . [and] often run against basic international trade principles of nondiscrimination and maintaining a level playing field.To these charges, China responded that it laws regarding the Internet are not much different than those of the West, and that critics are applying a double standard.Perhaps U.S. lawmakers have forgotten a cause it often champions: that respect for human rights, deregulation, and open trade are important to a dynamic and properly functioning global community. As ownership of patents, trademarks, and copyrights becomes a contested grey area, nations may block business occurring over the Internet through the guise of copyright infringement. Only the rich and powerful will have the resources to go through the legal hurdles at home and/or abroad to clear their domains of actions to lock them, and resume operations. Damage would be done to a business during the course of a legal action brought against it; its customers may simply believe that the domain ceases to exist, with transactions lost forever.Small businesses could be shut out of that presumptuous dream of going global and becoming rich, while the elite, big businesses and powerful governments can dominate cyberspace. Many micro-states and individuals could be harmed, and educational pursuits stifled through this world of more legislation, regulation, and censorship.
Why should we be concerned about this future for the Internet? Well, because the Internet is now everyone’s classroom; and perhaps more-so it has become individuals’ business personality. A properly set up website for a Mom-and-Pop enterprise can look as good as that of a billion dollar company’s front-store. The ramifications of more regulation will result in the free and booming frontier of cyberspace, now functioning as the gold rush for enterprise, ceasing to exist.The U.S. may find it useful to confer with trading partners in the North and the South, and come to an understanding that perhaps unilateral action is not the way to address concerns in regard to a frontier in which everyone has an interest. President George W. Bush may have gotten it right when his attorneys writing on his behalf to Sens. Leahy and Specter implied, when taken altogether, that U.S. law already provides owners of Intellectual Property with effective legal tools to protect their rights. It need not go in the direction proposed by the Senators.No one wants Washington’s efforts to backfire and force us to return to a world where we have to resort domestically to find the goods and services that we need, such as cheap medicine. Or, to have to wait on someone in a dusty library to find a book or paper we once could have accessed readily over the Internet. Or, in some far corner of the world men will cower in fear of infringing before they cite links as sources of information. A Big Brother that will censor access to the latest celebrity sex videos, or certain religious texts or even Osama bin Laden’s latest rant (however misguided they may be). The result of this could be that owners of presumed infringing sites must raise ungodly sums of money to hire attorneys to clear their domain names, while good sites like WikiLeaks (which make governments accountable for their actions) are shut down or blocked here and abroad through a pretext; and Mom-and-Pop operating a start-up Internet business within the cornfields of America are locked out through action suggested by a smooth operator with deep pockets who knows how to play the system and use it against his competitor, blocking sites because somebody with power did not like the owner’s point of view.Francis Anthony Govia received a Bachelor’s degree in International Relations at Boston University where he studied U.S. National Security and Foreign Policy with teachers who inspired him, such as General Fred F.

South Africa summit sheds light on EU strategic partnerships
ANDREW RETTMAN 28.09.2010 @ 17:44 CET
EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - A meeting between EU leaders and South African President Jacob Zuma has shed light on how the union aims to use strategic partnerships to shape world events, as well as the limits of its relationship with the young democracy.Speaking to the press alongside Mr Zuma in Brussels on Tuesday (28 September), EU Council President Herman Van Rompuy and European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso said the union expects South Africa to bring its weight to bear to support the EU perspective on nation building in the Sudan, upcoming climate change talks in Cancun and the G20 talks on global financial governance in Seoul.Mr Van Rompuy underlined that the EU is a huge aid donor in Africa and added that its partners have duties and that relations must be a two-way street.Recalling a recent debate between EU leaders on what the union's strategic partnerships are for, he said: We agreed on the need for Europe to promote its interests and values in a spirit of reciprocity and mutual benefit. The EU's strategic partnerships with key players in the world, such as South Africa, provide a useful instrument for pursuing these objectives.Mr Barroso added: In Cancun or in Seoul, if we pool our forces together, the EU and South Africa can contribute to making a difference to our people and making sure the world is a more fair and more prosperous place.Academics Sven Biscop and Richard Whitman in an upcoming book on EU foreign policy, the Handbook of European Security, have said the EU has only had one real strategic partnership in its history - with the US during the Cold War. The EU's own list of strategic partners includes mostly up-and-coming developing countries (Brazil, China, India, Mexico, and South Africa), 20th century great powers (Japan, Russia, and the US) and Canada. For his part, Mr Zuma noted that the EU-South Africa strategic partnership treaty signed three years ago has seen a multiplication of mid-ranking diplomatic forums on areas such as education, social affairs, crime and justice.
He underlined instead the value of the Lisbon Treaty, saying: We have met for the first time under the auspices of the Lisbon Treaty. We welcome the fact that with President Van Rompuy we have a permanent partner leading and guiding the EU instead of the pre-Lisbon Treaty six month rotating presidency. We are convinced, Mr President, that under your stewardship and that with President Barroso we will have both continuity and consistency in our relations.The three men endeavoured to give the impression of having just come out of a friendly chat at the press conference, with Mr Barroso and Mr Zuma chuckling along with Mr Van Rompuy's quips abut the football World Cup and how one should never discuss delicate fiscal matters in front of reporters. The EU also gave Mr Zuma a €122 million children's education grant. But the meeting also exposed dividing lines between the two sides. Mr Zuma and Mr Barroso conceded there is a chance that they will be unable to conclude talks on an Economic Partnership Agreement with the group of 14 nations of the Southern African Development Community before the end of the year, as planned. If there is a success, we will claim victory and if there is not a success in December, then we will have some more effort from our officials,the commission chief said. If there is not [a success], it is not the end of the world,the South African leader added.Both sides pledged to work together for a new deal on CO2 emissions cuts in Mexico. But Mr Barroso voiced regret that emerging countries at the climate change summit in Denmark did not include the EU in their deal-making with the US. We in the European Union were to some extent disappointed with the results in Copenhagen,he said. On the sensitive subjects of Zimbabwe sanctions and South Africa visa facilitation, each side listened to the others' remarks in silence.South African foreign ministry spokesman Saul Kgomotso had ahead of the EU summit said that Mr Zuma would urge the union to lift the measures. On the day, Mr Van Rompuy read out a statement saying the EU measures are targeted at high officials and arms traders and do not harm Zimbabweans or impede Zimbabweans' daily lives.Mr Zuma said he had proposed a reciprocal visa-waiver agreement for diplomatic and official passport holders. Neither of the EU leaders picked up on the point.
EU aims for budget that national politicians can defend-Mr Lewandowski. Negotiations on the EU's multi-annual budget tend not to bring out the best in member states (Photo: ec.europa.eu)HONOR MAHONY 28.09.2010 @ 17:27 CET
EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - With the economic crisis having made voters much more sensitive to how their money is being spent, Brussels is promising to craft a long-term budget that national politicians can defend.We should structure the flows in and out in such a way that domestic politicians can defend the future budget of the European union, EU budget commissioner Janusz Lewandowski said on Tuesday (28 September).The pragmatic approach comes in the wake of a recent EU survey showing record low support for the Union in many member states and grumbling by some national politicians about how much their country has to pay into the common pool of European resources.My assumption for the future, given the constraints, given the mood of the time, is that we cannot afford in the future net positions a deterioration of the Netherlands, of Germany [and] of Sweden, said the Polish official referring to the biggest net contributors to the EU budget, which runs to over €100 billion a year.Speaking directly about the Netherlands, where some politicians have been complaining about the amount transferred to the EU, the commissioner said: In net terms, the Netherlands belong to the biggest contributors and it has to be taken into account when negotiating the next financial perspectives because we are, of course, conscious of what the mood is in Dutch politics now.In 2009, the Netherlands paid more than €2 billion towards the EU budget, representing about 0.36 percent of GNI. Germany pays in the greatest amount each year while eastern European countries, such as Poland, receive the most in EU transfers.
The EU long-term budget runs over seven years. The current multi-annual budget - known in EU jargon as the financial perspective - expires in 2013. Negotiations on the issue are notoriously rancorous. And they have been becoming more so as the UK's controversial rebate is contested during each round, Germany can no longer be relied on to be the traditional no-questions-asked paymaster and the EU has grown to 27 countries, all of which need to agree the budget.Discussions for the 2014-2021 period are likely to be even more contentious than in previous years. Mr Lewandowski got the ball rolling over the summer by suggesting the EU should raise its own money through methods such as a financial or aviation tax, noting that the member states' direct contributions now make up over 70 percent of the budget as other revenue sources such as customs duties have fallen. This is up from 11 percent in 1988.He has also indicated he wants to open discussion on the UK rebate - fiercely defended by London - and reduce the amount spent on farm policy.A prolongation of the present trend in many areas could produce big losers. And probably problems with agreement, so we have to take it into account - and technically this is feasible, said the commissioner on Tuesday, referring to a toolbox of different policies that he can play around with, including the EU's cohesion policy, subsidies to the union's regions. He also suggested that a compensation mechanism be set up for those paying more into the EU than they receive from it.Mr Lewandowski is due to present an ideas paper next month on the issue and a formal proposal by the end of June 2011. However, the commission looks set to go through with the own resources line of thinking, giving Brussels a means to raise money directly.Mr Lewandowski has not backed down from the idea of an EU tax since floating it last month, while European Commission chief Jose Manuel Barroso in a keynote speech to the parliament earlier in September said it had to be considered.It has been supported by Spain, Belgium, Poland and Austria, but opposed by the UK, France and Germany.
HOW TO BUILD A KOSHER SUKKAH
http://www.israelnationalnews.com/Articles/Article.aspx/9720
Sukkot Celebrated at Renovated Joseph’s Tomb
by Elad Benari SEPT 29,10
More than 1,000 people from all over Israel took part on Monday in special prayers for Sukkot at Joseph’s Tomb. During Sukkot, the ushpizin prayer is recited, symbolizing the welcoming of seven special guests into the sukkah, one for each day of the holiday: Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Aaron, Joseph and David. The prayers at Joseph’s Tomb took place on the day of Sukkot on which according to tradition, Joseph visits the sukkah.This was the first massive gathering at the site of the tomb, which was restored in a complex night-long operation, which began on Saturday night and ended on Sunday morning. Ten years ago, the tomb was destroyed and defiled by an Arab mob. During the restoration operation, a five-ton stone slab was lowered into the ancient tomb structure in the exact location where the original stone lay, before it was smashed and burned by the Arab pillagers in September 2000.
Attendees of the special gathering on Monday expressed their great excitement over the restored tomb. Taking part in the ceremony were prominent rabbis, including former French Chief Rabbi, Rabbi Yosef Sitruck. Also participating were MK Tzipi Hotovely (Likud), Shomron Regional Council Mayor Gershon Mesika, Yesha Council Chairman Danny Dayan, and Rabbi Nir Rosenberg of the community of Einav. Soldiers who took part in the ceremony read from the book of Tehilim (Psalms), many of them with tears of excitement in their eyes.Mesika thanked the IDF for ensuring the security of participants, and also thanked the IDF's Samaria Brigade and Civil Administration for their cooperation and assistance in the restoration efforts.This is a symbolic closure, an exciting historic moment, a tiny repair in the shame of the abandonment of Joseph’s Tomb, said Mesika. We thank the officers and soldiers for their partnership in the progressive renovation of the tomb. However, the joy is not complete at all and it is mixed with sadness about the 10 year-old disgrace, when then Defense Minister Ehud Barak ordered to abandon Joseph's Tomb.He noted that No nation in the world would allow a sacred place, so symbolic to its people to be so disgraced as Joseph's Tomb. I urge the Israeli government to make amends and allow the Jewish stay at Joseph's Tomb, which was anchored even in the Oslo Accords, in which it was determined that Joseph's Tomb will remain under full Israeli control.
MK Hotovely remarked following her visit to the site: It is shocking that such a holy place as Joseph's Tomb has not yet returned to a state of permanent Jewish presence there. Joseph's Tomb should be conducted as Rachel's Tomb and the Cave of the Patriarchs are conducted, and Jews should be allowed to pray there regularly.
Right before Yom Kippur, hundreds of people gathered in the Samaria community of Mitzpe Yosef, which overlooks Joseph’s Tomb, for a special ceremony marking the tenth anniversary of Israel’s pullout from the site. During the ceremony, it was announced that the coming year will be known as the year of Joseph’s Tomb, and will include educational and public activities as well as many other special events.

16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18 And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
19 From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report.
Israeli calls for intermediate peace agreement By EDITH M. LEDERER, Associated Press Writer – Tue Sep 28, 3:45 pm ET
UNITED NATIONS – Israel's foreign minister called Tuesday for an intermediate agreement with the Palestinians, a position directly at odds with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is trying to reach a final peace deal in the coming year.
Speaking at the annual ministerial meeting of the U.N. General Assembly, Avigdor Lieberman also said the guiding principle in a final agreement must not be land-for-peace but an exchange of land to better reflect demographic realities.He said the solution must be two-staged because the emotional problems between Israelis and Palestinians can't be resolved until a new generation is raised that has mutual trust and will not be influenced by incitement and extremist messages.Under these conditions, we should focus on coming up with a long-term intermediate agreement, something that could take a few decades,Lieberman said.The prime minister's office immediately distanced Netanyahu from Lieberman's comments.The contents of the foreign minister's speech at the U.N. were not coordinated with the prime minister, it said. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is the one heading the political negotiations on behalf of the state of Israel. The various subjects of the peace agreement will be discussed and set only around the negotiation table and not in any other place.Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak, who heads the Labor Party, said Lieberman's remarks do not reflect the position of the Israeli government and certainly not the position of the Labor Party.
The Labor Party believes it is vital to continue the negotiations and toward a breakthrough to achieve a peace accord with the Palestinians, and not to play into the hands of israel's enemies, Barak's office said in a statement.During Lieberman's speech, two Palestinian diplomats got up and walked out of the assembly chamber. The seats for Iran and Iraq were empty when shown on U.N. television.Lieberman heads Yisrael Beitenu, an ultranationalist party that is the second-largest member of the coalition government led by Netanyahu. He also is a West Bank settler.While Lieberman is not directly involved in the Mideast negotiations, his comments illustrate the hardline pressures that Netanyahu faces if he begins to make concessions to the Palestinians. In his speech, he alluded to the perception of differences in the government.I want to emphasize that contrary to what is often shown in the international media, the political arena in Israel is not divided between those who seek peace and those who seek war, Lieberman said.Everyone wants peace and the controversy in Israel centers on the specific question of how to achieve this peace; how to reach security and stability in the region.In trying to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian problem, Lieberman said there are practical problems but equally important emotional problems, first and foremost the utter lack of confidence between the sides and issues such as Jerusalem, recognition of Israel as a nation-state of the Jewish people and refugees.
This lack of trust cannot be solved until a new generation is raised, he said.To achieve a final status agreement, we must understand that the primary practical obstacle is the friction between the two nations, Lieberman stressed.He spoke as U.S. special Mideast envoy, George Mitchell, rushed to the region to try to keep peace Israeli-Palestinian peace talks from collapsing just weeks after they began.
Israel's decision to resume new West Bank settlement construction after a 10-month moratorium expired at midnight Sunday has angered Palestinians who threatened to abandon talks if building resumed. But Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said he wouldn't make a decision until he consults senior Arab officials in Cairo next week, giving U.S. mediation a brief window to find a solution.In his speech, Lieberman insisted that the root of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is not Israel's so-called occupation of the West Bank and the settlers themselves. The other misguided argument is the claim that the Palestinian issue prevents a determined international front against Iran, he said.In truth, the connection between Iran and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is precisely reversed, Lieberman said.Iran can exist without Hamas, Islamic Jihad and Hezbollah, but the terrorist organizations cannot exist without Iran.As a result, he said, to deal with the true roots of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict the Iranian issue must be resolved.Syria's Foreign Minister Walid Al-Moualem told the General Assembly that in Israel, there is much talk about peace, yet the drums of war continue to sound.He warned that Israel's continued settlement activities are about to make a two-state solution where Israel and Palestine live side-by-side in peace a dead letter than stands no chance of survival.
Nonetheless, Al-Moualem said, Syria wants peace and is ready to resume peace negotiations from the point where they stopped through the Turkish mediator.He reiterated that a complete Israeli withdrawal from the Golan Heights, captured in the 1967 war, is not negotiable nor is it a bargaining chip. Netanyahu has not said he is willing to cede the territory Syria wants.Turkey, a predominatly Islamic nation which has close ties to Arab nations and Israel, mediated four rounds of indirect peace negotiations between the two countries in 2008, But Syria suspended the talks in December 2008 over Israel's military offensive in Gaza.
Lieberman at UN: Peace Decades Away, Can be Based on Land Swap
by Gil Ronen SEPT 29,10
Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman told the nations of the world Tuesday that peace between Israel and the Palestinian Authority would not be achieved anytime soon. The Prime Minister's Office said Lieberman was not speaking for the Prime Minister.In his address before the United Nations General Assembly, Lieberman said that a peace treaty dividing the Land of Israel between Jews and Arabs would not be signed in the next few decades. The sides would do best to reach a long term temporary agreement at this point, he explained.Lieberman said that a long term temporary agreement will enable the Palestinian Authority to achieve economic growth and enjoy freedom of movement. It will make it possible, he added, for new generations of Jews and Arabs who are not raised on hatred and incitement, to reach peace several decades hence.A permanent agreement, Lieberman said, must be based on land swaps that would involve population swaps. Lieberman stressed that he was referring to redrawing the borders in a way that reflects demographics, and not to actually moving populations from their current locations.The PMO said that Lieberman's speech was not coordinated beforehand with the Prime Minister. In a response to journalists' questions, the PMO said that the Prime Minister is the one directing the diplomatic negotiations in Israel's name.Lieberman also said that those who say that a solution to the Iranian threat depends on a solution to the conflict between Israel and the PA has things backward. Defeating the radical regime in Teheran, he explained, would also bring down Hamas, which receives its marching orders from Iran – and make peace more attainable.(IsraelNationalNews.com)
Egypt Released Hamas Official Who Knows Where Gilad Shalit Is
by Haggai Huberman and Gil Ronen SEPT 28,10
Security sources said that Muhammad Dababash, who was released by Egypt last week, several days after he was arrested in Cairo, is one of the few people who know where abducted IDF soldier Gilad Shalit is being held. The report appeared in Yediot Aharonot, an Israeli newspaper. The release of Dababash, a senior Hamas intelligence official, is seen as an Egyptian gesture toward Hamas that is meant to promote reconciliation between it and Fatah. According to Egyptian media, Dababash was involved in smuggling weapons through the Sinai Desert, and possibly also in launching rockets at Israel.The Israel Defense Force and other components of the Israeli defense establishment are concerned by reports coming from Damascus, on progress in the reconciliation talks being held there between the twin terror groups Hamas and Fatah.A source in the IDF praises what he says has been effective recent security cooperation with Palestinian Authority security forces, including the investigations of recent Hamas shooting attacks on Jews in Judea and Samaria. A senior security source in the IDF's Central Command told Arutz Sheva's Hebrew-language service that the Palestinian operations against terrorism are real. The reason is simple: they are not doing it for us. They believe that it is for their own good. It's not in their interest to have terror here.Senior IDF officials say the situation today is in complete contrast to the reality that prevailed ten years ago, in the years that followed the Oslo Accords. They say the PA has forsaken the system of revolving door arrests: that is, the fictitious imprisonment of terrorists and their quiet release soon afterward. Nowadays, they say, any terrorist who is arrested and proved to have been involved in terror attacks is put on trial in the new courts that the PA's government under Salam Fayyad established under the supervision of donor countries and the European Union. Convicted terrorists are put away for long periods of time, the officials say.
However, the IDF acknowledged that the successful cooperation with the Fatah-controlled PA stems from the fact that Hamas is a common enemy of Israel and Fatah. According to the senior security source, the Palestinian Authority does not care about preventing Hamas from killing Jews. But it fears that Hamas will carry out a military coup in [Judea and Samaria] as it did in Gaza. This is the only motive for PA's war against Hamas.The IDF is thus concerned over reports of signs of reconciliation between Fatah and Hamas, and by the possibility that Hamas will cease to be an enemy of the PA. According to the reports, the two terror groups have not reached agreement on security matters. The head of the Fatah faction in the Palestinian Legislative Council, Azzam Al-Ahmad, said Sunday that Hamas and Fatah had reached agreement on the electoral process in the PA and on the structure of the PLO, but that controversy remains about security cooperation with Israel, and about the continued operation of independent Hamas militia.The head of Hamas's political bureau, Khaled Mashaal, said Monday that only a few small issues need to solved in order to achieve reconciliation with Fatah. Mashaal called on PA chairman Mahmoud Abbas not to continue negotiations with Israel because of renewed Israeli construction in Judea and Samaria.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

Divided Palestinians mark anniversary of intifada by Adel Zaanoun – Tue Sep 28, 9:55 am ET
GAZA CITY (AFP) – Palestinian leaders from Hamas and Fatah paid tribute to the Al-Aqsa intifada on Tuesday as they marked the 10th anniversary of the devastating Palestinian uprising.The intifada restored the dignity of the Palestinian people and brought them closer to victory and liberation, Hamas prime minister Ismail Haniya said during a special meeting of his government in Gaza.Our people will not hand over their weapons nor stop the resistance because it is our legitimate right as long as there is an occupation, he said.Tuesday marks a decade since Ariel Sharon's controversial visit to the flashpoint Al-Aqsa mosque compound in Jerusalem, an event that sparked deadly violence that soon engulfed the occupied territories.Over the next four years scores of Palestinian suicide bombers struck inside Israel as Israel sent tanks, bulldozers and fighter jets into cities and towns across the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.An Israeli-Palestinian summit in early 2005 was seen as signalling the end of the uprising but the unrest lingered for years.Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas moved to end the violence when he succeeded Yasser Arafat after his death in 2004 and has long sought to bring about an independent state through peaceful negotiations.His Fatah movement played an active role in the uprising, however, and a jailed leader of the group praised the intifada.
The cause of the immense destruction was the (Israeli) occupation, not the intifada, Marwan Barghuti, one of the architects of the uprising, said in a statement from prison published by Al-Quds newspaper.The main cause of the intifada was the continuation of the occupation. The Palestinian people will continue their struggle and their resistance of the occupation until it is gone, he said.But I think it is too early to speak of a new intifada, especially because of the Palestinian divisions.The 51-year-old -- arrested in 2002 and sentenced to five life terms for murder for his role in deadly attacks on Israelis during the uprising -- remains highly popular and is often spoken of as a successor to Abbas.Fatah and Hamas have been brutally divided since the Islamist movement seized power in Gaza in June 2007.
On Monday the Israeli human rights group B'Tselem said more than 7,400 people had been killed in Israeli-Palestinian violence since the outbreak of the second intifada, 85 percent of them Palestinians.The 10 years surveyed included not only the intifada, but the 22-day Gaza war launched in December 2008, which left some 1,400 Palestinians and 13 Israelis dead.
Sexual abuse accuser calls Ga. pastor predator
SEPT 28,10
ATLANTA – One of the young men accusing megachurch Bishop Eddie Long of coercing him into a sexual relationship told a TV interviewer that he loved the pastor and considered him a father figure, but still called him a predator and a monster.I loved him and I'm always going to have love for the things he taught us, but how he left us hurt worse than anything I ever felt in my life, Jamal Parris told Atlanta's Fox TV affiliate WAGA in an interview broadcast Tuesday. This man turned his back on us when he had no more need for us. That's not a father, that's a predator.Parris, 23, is one of four men suing the TV preacher in state court, claiming that he abused his spiritual authority and gave them cars, clothes, cash and trips to lure them into sexual relationships while they were teen members of New Birth Missionary Baptist Church in suburban Atlanta.Parris described an ongoing emotional struggle.I cannot get the sound of his voice out of my head and I cannot forget the smell of his cologne and I cannot forget the way he made me cry many nights when I drove in his cars on the way home, Parris said.I'm not able to take enough showers to wipe the smell of him off my body.A spokesman for Long referred calls to an attorney, who was not immediately available Tuesday night.When a reporter approached Parris outside a convenience store in Colorado, he at first was reluctant to speak. Then he told WAGA that Long exploited his dreams for a father figure in exchange for sexual favors.During services at his church Sunday, Long turned to biblical terms to portray himself as an underdog but didn't outright deny the allegations.I feel like David against Goliath. But I got five rocks, and I haven't thrown one yet, said Long, who added that while he doesn't claim to be perfect, I am not the man that's being portrayed on the television.
In the Fox interview, a vehement Parris said Long manipulated us from childhood under the guise of providing a fatherly influence. Parris was referring to himself and the other accusers, Maurice Robinson, Anthony Flagg and Spencer LeGrande. They are in their 20s now but were 17 and 18 when they had sexual relationships with Long, the lawsuits say. Long does not face criminal charges.This was our father and we loved him, Parris said.
Parris' attorney declined comment.
Speaking to Fox, Parris said Long is not being truthful to his followers. They include athletes, politicians and entertainers in the 25,000-member Lithonia church that has a $50 million, 10,000-seat cathedral and more than 40 ministries. Long, who has been New Birth pastor since 1987, has spoken out loudly against gay marriage.
That man cannot look me in my eye and tell me we did not live this pain, he said. Addressing a comment to Long, he said, you are not a man you are a monster.Also Tuesday, a county prosecutor said Long asked for charges to be dropped against Maurice Robinson in August, about two months after authorities say he and Anthony Boyd broke into the megachurch.The district attorney's office declined Long's request to drop the charges and is still investigating the case.Information from: WAGA-TV, http://www.myfoxatlanta.com

South Korea says 2 Koreas to hold military talks
SEPT 29,10
SEOUL, South Korea – North and South Korea have agreed to hold their first working-level military talks in two years, Seoul's Defense Ministry said Wednesday.Officers from the two sides were to meet Thursday in the truce village of Panmunjom in the Demilitarized Zone that divides the peninsula, the ministry said. They last held such talks in October 2008.North Korea had earlier this month proposed the meeting to discuss the western maritime border and anti-North Korean leaflets spread by South Koreans. The ministry would not confirm Wednesday what would be on the upcoming meeting's agenda.The poorly marked western sea border, drawn by the United Nations at the end of the 1950-53 Korean War, is a constant source of tension between the two Koreas.Seoul has repeatedly rejected the North's long-standing demands that the sea border be changed. The navies of the two Koreas engaged in three bloody skirmishes near the area in 1999, 2002 and 2009.Military tensions have been high since a South Korean patrol ship sank in March, killing 46 sailors. South Korea and the United States say the vessel was sunk by a North Korean torpedo, a claim Pyongyang denies.The talks also come as South Korea and the U.S. are holding naval drills in the Yellow Sea off the west coast of the Korean peninsula, near where the South Korean ship sank.The exercises are the second in a series of joint maneuvers focusing on anti-submarine warfare tactics, techniques, and procedures, according to the South Korean Defense Ministry.

Elijah being raptured to heaven.
2 KINGS 2:1,11-12
1 And it came to pass, when the LORD would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.
11 And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
12 And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces.
The Bible says that Elijah will come to preach in Israel. So we must look at the scripture that says this. Well Malachi 4:5-6 says Elijah will come before the great wrath of the Lord, and since the great and terrible day of the Lord is the last 3 1/2 years of the seven year tribulation, Elijah has to return before the future 7 year treaty is signed.Or just after the treaty is signed.
Matthew 17:10-11
10 And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come?
11 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.

3 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.

4 And there appeared unto them Elias with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus.

REVELATION 11:1-13
1 And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.
2 But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.
3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses,(ELIJAH-MOSES) and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days,(3 1/2 YRS) clothed in sackcloth.
4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.
5 And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.
6 These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy:(ELIJAH DONE THIS WHILE ON EARTH) and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.(MOSES LEAD THE ISRAELIS OUT OF EGYPT WITH THE 10 PLAGUES PUT ON EGPTIANS.)
7 And when they(ELIJAH-MOSES) shall have finished their testimony,(3 1/2 YRS INTO THE TRIB) the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit(WORLD DICTATOR) shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.

9 And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.
10 And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.

Elijah being raptured to heaven.
2 KINGS 2:1,11-12
1 And it came to pass, when the LORD would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.
11 And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
12 And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces.
The Bible says that Elijah will come to preach in Israel. So we must look at the scripture that says this. Well Malachi 4:5-6 says Elijah will come before the great wrath of the Lord, and since the great and terrible day of the Lord is the last 3 1/2 years of the seven year tribulation, Elijah has to return before the future 7 year treaty is signed.Or just after the treaty is signed.

11 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.

France keen to muscle in on Middle East peace process-Mr Sarkozy (r) on Monday also criticised Israel for its settlements policy. The colonisation must end, he said (Photo: elysee.fr)ANDREW RETTMAN Today SEPT 28,10 @ 09:13 CET
EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - French President Nicolas Sarkozy has called a Middle East summit in Paris and criticised Barack Obama's and Catherine Ashton's handling of the peace process so far.Speaking at a press conference with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas at the Elysee palace on Monday (26 September), the French leader invited Mr Abbas, Israeli premier Benjamin Netanyahu and Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak to come to the French capital in late October. He said the Paris summit will prepare for a larger meeting of the EU-sponsored multilateral club, the Union for the Mediterranean, in November and noted that US domination of the process has yielded no results so far.There is a problem of method ... Nothing will be solved without the strong engagement of the Americans. This is my belief as you perfectly well know. I've always thought his. But does this strong engagement, which we need, have to be exclusive? This question has been asked for the past 10 years, since Camp David. If an exclusive engagement was enough, why is there no peace? he said.We don't want to be spectators who just watch as time goes by,he added.It is not viable to continue like this - and President Abbas agrees with me - for Europe to finance everything but to stay outside the political process. These things must go together. I am profoundly European and I want Europe to take back ownership of important political dossiers such as this.The EU is the largest aid donor to the Palestinian authorities. But EU foreign relations chief Catherine Ashton has stayed away from the first three rounds of recent peace talks in Washington, Sharm el Sheikh and Jerusalem.
Mr Sarkozy did not name Ms Ashton on Monday. But a French diplomat told EUobserver that his remarks should be understood in the same way as French foreign minister Bernard Kouchner's earlier criticism of her absenteeism.This is the same logic. The EU should definitely be be at the table and we were surprised that the EU was not there at the table these last few times, the diplomatic contact said.A source in the EU institutions compared the October summit in Paris to Mr Sarkozy's peace mission to the Middle East in the 2008/2009 Gaza war, when France competed with the then Czech EU presidency to play the biggest role in the crisis. It is well-known that France wants to be present in this process. It is not just about the EU. France wants a role for itself,the EU official said.Ms Ashton's office declined to comment on Mr Sarkozy's latest intervention but highlighted instead her co-operation with the US Special Envoy for Middle East Peace, Senator George J. Mitchell, in preparing a joint statement calling for a new freeze on Israeli settlements.US diplomats on Monday also underlined that the EU is being taken seriously as a partner in the process.The Secretary [Hilary Clinton], this afternoon here in New York, will have meetings with Foreign Minister Hague of Great Britain, Foreign Minister Kouchner of France, Foreign Minister Cannon of Canada, Foreign Minister Mualem of Syria, where we expect the Middle East will be a key topic of conversation. And later this week back in Washington, she'll have meetings with EU High Representative Catherine Ashton and German Foreign Minister Westerwelle. So we are maintaining close contact with European leaders to encourage ongoing support to the process,US State Department spokesman Philip J. Crowley said.
Sarkozy Tries to Take Over for Obama in Mideast Talks
by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu SEPT 27,10
Flamboyant French President Nicolas Sarkozy met with Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas in Paris on Monday and announced he will ask to host a new summit with the PA, Israel and Egypt next month. Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has said he would be willing to talk with Abbas at any time.With Abbas placing the diplomatic process on hold following Prime Minister Netanyahu’s refusal to extend the 10-month building freeze on Jewish homes in Judea and Samaria, Sarkozy used stronger language than U.S. President Barack Obama to oppose renewed construction for Jews.Instead of saying that renewed building is harmful to American efforts advance discussions for a New Arab country headed by the PA, Sarkozy stated. The settlements must stop. Israel has a moratorium for 10 months and it should be extended for 3 to 4 months more to give peace a chance.Israel leaders have pointed out several times that Abbas' originally demanded a building freeze and then refused to resume direct talks after the Israeli government conceded to American pressures and instituted the unprecedented moratorium. The PA argued that the building freeze was not comprehensive enough.Although Abbas said he would refuse to resume talks if the freeze were not extended, he has reacted more diplomatically and placed the ball in the court of the Arab League, which is to meet next week to discuss their next move. We will not have any quick reactions,Abbas said after meeting with Sarkozy.A summit hosted by Sarkozy would take the momentum away from the Obama administration, which has failed to bridge the gaps between the PA and Israel.
He told reporters that American involvement is necessary but is not enough. Nothing will be resolved without strong American backing,he said. But does the strong commitment that's needed have to be exclusive? That's been the question for 10 years, since Camp David. If such an exclusive commitment was enough, we'd know it.
Sarkozy’s inclination to take the limelight in international discussions has reached as far as Al-Qaeda. After its terrorists kidnapped five French citizens and two others last week, Sarkozy’s aide stated, We are ready to talk to the kidnappers, who are members of a wing of Osama bin Laden's international terrorist network.France has been reported to have frequently paid kidnappers with cash and the release of prisoners in return for French citizens and the protection of French business interests.Sarkozy’s offer to talk with the kidnappers came less than a month after he stated, It can't be our only strategy to pay ransoms and to agree to free prisoners in exchange for unlucky innocent victims.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

MEPs demand explanation on US plan to monitor all money transfers
VALENTINA POP Today SEPT 28,10 @ 09:24 CET
EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS – The EU commission and MEPs have requested clarifications from Washington on reported plans to expand an anti-terrorism programme targeting financial transactions - a move that would render void the long-debated Swift agreement enacted in August.We urgently seek clarifications from the US if these plans are an infringemet of the Swift agreement and the EU commission promised to demand further information on it, Dutch Liberal MEP Sophie in't Veld told this website on Monday evening (27 September) after a closed-door meeting with commission officials.Earlier that day, the Washington Post reported that the Obama administration was looking into expanding existing anti-terrorism programs targetting bank transfers to the extent that a long-debated agreement with the EU, dubbed the Swift agreement, would no longer be valid.Under current rules, US officials can request European data relevant to a specific terrorist investigation from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (Swift). The request needs to be approved by the EU's police co-operation unit, Europol, and has to meet certain requirements. But if the new plans go into effect, the Washington Post said: transactions between European and US banks would be captured regardless of whether there is a substantiated need.Responding to the news, Ms in't Veld said: We are all getting a bit tired of being taken by surprise all the time. The US is our friend and ally, so we shouldn't be treated this way.Set up in the aftermath of the terrorist attacks on New York and Washington in 2001, the Terorrism Finance Tracking Program was initially a covert operation, tapping Swift data without the Europeans knowing about it. It was only when the story broke, in 2006, that Washington engaged in basic negotiations with the EU, while keeping the programme up and running.
Using its new powers, acquired when the Lisbon Treaty came into force, the European Parliament in February struck down the interim agreement, interrupting the data flow for half a year. A final agreement was subsequently negotiated by the EU commission, with extra privacy and oversight provisions, and came into force on 1 August.We see so many data transfers - passenger name records (PNR), Swift data, credit card information connected to the travel fee - that we are wondering where all this ends, the Dutch MEP said.Ms in't Veld is responsible for drafting the Parliament's position on the so-called PNR agreement, which, like the Swift programme, was put into place after the 2001 terrorist attacks and which requires all airlines who fly to or over the US to deliver personal data on their passengers to the American authorities. The PNR agreement was already struck down once by the European Court of Justice for having the wrong legal basis and the current version is pending approval by the EU legislature.A compromise solution designed to discourage the parliament form using its nuclear option veto is currently being prepared by the EU commission with extra data protection provisions in place. The EU executive earlier this month presented its guiding principles for new negotiations with Washington, to be approved by interior ministers in October. The talks could start by the end of this year.I am not blaming the US for asking us for so much data. They test where the limits are and unless the EU draws some lines, they will take as much as they can, Ms in't Veld said.

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - European Union member states have concluded their first debate on a recent European Commission proposal to allow differentiated GMO cultivation, with most capitals raising serious objections. Belgian minister for agriculture Sabine Laruelle, whose country currently holds the EU's rotating presidency, acknowledged the considerable opposition after she met with EU counterparts in Brussels on Monday (27 September).I don't think we can expect a compromise over the next couple of months, she told journalists at a new conference. A great deal more will have to be done.Germany, France and several other member states are concerned that the commission's proposal could result in a fragmentation of the EU's internal market, as well as run into opposition from the World Trade Organisation. Italy and pro-GMO Spain also reportedly raised concerns over the proposal, citing their opposition to the renationalising of an EU common policy, while anti-GMO Austria, Hungary and Greece gave it support.Announced in July, the commission plan says environmental and health considerations on whether to approve the cultivation of a certain GMO-crop should remain at EU level, but adds that member states should subsequently be allowed to ban an EU-authorised product at national level using other criteria.
These could be socio-economic in nature, or following a referendum, although details remain unclear. An ad-hoc group composed of member state officials has been set up to study the issue. Pro-GMO Netherlands is among the list of EU countries supporting the commission's blueprint, seeing it as a means to unblock years of deadlock in the area.Once GMO-crops have been assessed as safe for people, animals, and the environment, we should give our farmers a real choice and a chance to compete globally, said Dutch minister of agriculture Gerda Verburg on Monday.GMO products remain unpopular with many EU citizens however, frequently being referred to as Frankenstein Foods.A new procedure under the EU's Lisbon Treaty allows European citizens to request Brussels to look into a particular area once one million signatures have been collected on a petition, with a call for a GMO ban nearing this figure.European commissioner for consumer affairs John Dalli defended the proposal on Monday, saying it would allow differing levels of GMO cultivation across the bloc but would not hamper trade in GMO products.It does not undermine the internal market and is not in contradiction with WTO rules. On the contrary, legal experts say it is the current status which is problematic with the WTO, he said.Many environmental NGOs are also unhappy with the proposal however, saying member states that chose to implement a ban at national level under the proposal would be vulnerable to legal challenges.EU countries shouldn't be duped into accepting the proposal as it stands and taking the pressure off the commission to improve crop safety and prevent GM contamination,said Greenpeace EU agriculture policy director Marco Contiero.

Diplomatic Tide Turns Against Abbas as He Freezes Talks
by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu SEPT 28,10
The constantly changing sands in the Middle East have left Abbas roasting under diplomatic heat as he faces blame for freezing talks with Israel.He has frozen discussions with Israel while giving Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu five days to reinstate the building freeze on Jewish homes in Judea and Samaria. If Israel does not comply, Abbas said he will turn to the Arab League to consider the next step.
However, Prime Minister Netanyahu apparently has checked Abbas in what has become a diplomatic game of chess.U.S. Middle East envoy George Mitchell hurriedly returns to Israel Tuesday in a frantic attempt to save the Obama administration’s diplomatic momentum effort from falling into a ditch that seems to get deeper by the day.Mitchell and U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have been hoping to expand a proposed Palestinian Authority-Israeli agreement to a regional peace accord. Mitchell last week visited Lebanon and Syria, which also hosts the headquarters of the Hamas terrorist organization.The U.S. envoy said that Syria and Lebanon, where Damascus and the Hizbullah terrorist party increasingly influence the country’s affairs, are keys to a regional peace.American expectations that PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas and Prime Minister Netanyahu would find a way to overcome PA demands for a building freeze are fizzling out. The administration publicly said it was disappointed that Israel did not extend the 10-month moratorium on building, a move that was made under American pressure to satisfy Abbas’ condition for direct talks.
Despite the verbal criticism of Israel by the United States as well as the European Union and the United Nations, Abbas is increasingly viewed by media and analysts as the reason for the failure to sit down with Israel.Prime Minister Netanyahu has “managed to leave the dead cat [of prospective blame] at the doorstep of both the Obama administration and Mahmoud Abbas, Aaron David Miller, a former U.S. peace negotiator, told Politico’s Ben Smith.Last summer, Israel owned the dead cat, Smith wrote. Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton made plain their view that Netanyahu’s failure to stop all settlement construction on the West Bank was the obstacle to resumed talks, and after an ill-timed construction announcement, Clinton’s office released details of the unusual 43-minute tongue lashing she delivered to the Israelis.There are people on both sides who have no confidence [in the peace process] and so the name of the game is who gets blamed, pro-PA think tank expert Hussein Ibish told Smith. [That] is why the Palestinians can say a million times that they’ll walk out — but they can’t.Any doubt about support for Israel from Washington was removed on Monday when 87 senators—almost the entire U.S. Senate—signed a letter that effectively praised Prime Minister Netanyahu and blamed Abbes for the latest impasse.(IsraelNationalNews.com)
US envoy to try to salvage Mideast peace talks By AMY TEIBEL, Associated Press Writer – Tue Sep 28, 7:13 am ET
JERUSALEM – Washington's special Mideast envoy, using a slim lifeline from the Palestinians, rushed to the region on Tuesday on an emergency mission to keep peace talks from collapsing just weeks after they began.Israel's decision to resume new West Bank settlement construction after a 10-month moratorium expired on midnight Sunday has provoked Palestinian threats to walk out of the talks. It has also caused new friction between Israel and its powerful U.S. patron, which said it was disappointed with Israel's refusal to relent.On Monday night, Washington dispatched special envoy George Mitchell to the region to try to bridge gaps that Palestinian, Israel and American officials failed to close in a frenetic round of meetings in the U.S. last week.Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas gave U.S. mediation more time to work when he announced Monday he wouldn't decide whether to abandon the talks before consulting senior Arab officials in Cairo next week. An Arab League official has told The Associated Press that Arab foreign ministers were expected to endorse whatever position Abbas took.A senior Palestinian official said the Palestine Liberation Organization's 18-member decision-making body would meet Wednesday or Thursday to formulate a position before Abbas meets with the League envoys. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he was discussing internal Palestinian deliberations.
State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley praised Abbas for not immediately walking out of the talks and chided Israel for resisting international pressure to halt new housing starts in the West Bank — territory that Palestinians claim as part of their future state.We are disappointed but we remain focused on our long-term objective and will be talking to the parties about the implications of the Israeli decision, Crowley said Monday, adding that Mitchell would sort through with the parties where we go from here.U.N. chief Ban Ki-moon and senior European officials have also criticized Israel's decision.In Paris on Tuesday, the Palestinian leader urged Israel to halt new West Bank settlement construction as long as Mideast peace talks continue, saying he feared the two sides might miss a historic opportunity if Israel refuses to renew a just-expired freeze on the building.If settlement stops, we will continue the negotiations. If not, we will stop, Abbas said. We cannot destroy this hope (for peace) with things that are secondary, like settlements,he said.Palestinian leaders, he added, hope Israel will halt settlement building as long as there are negotiations.Immediately after the restrictions expired, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appealed to Abbas to keep negotiating. Netanyahu has indicated he would be prepared to limit new building, but has refused to agree to a complete halt.Netanyahu, a settlement champion who agreed under duress to impose the moratorium in late November, has told the U.S. that he cannot extend it because his partners in Israel's pro-settlement government oppose such a move. But he has indicated he would be willing to impose some limitations on construction.
Israeli defense officials have suggested there might be an undeclared freeze, with Defense Minister Ehud Barak quietly exercising his authority to quash any new building projects.Abbas told the French radio that Netanyahu should know that peace is more important than settlements.In Gaza violence late Monday, three Palestinian militants were killed in a clash with Israeli soldiers, both sides said. The Israelis said their forces fired at militants near the border of central Gaza as they were about to launch rockets at Israel. A small, al-Qaida-inspired group claimed responsibility on Tuesday.Associated Press Writers Jamey Keaten in Paris and Matthew Lee in Washington contributed to this report.

Netanyahu’s Nemesis Rahm Emanuel On Way Out of White House
by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu SEPT 28,10
U.S. President Barack Obama soon may hang the help wanted sign outside the door of his Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel, who reportedly will step down. Emanuel once was allegedly called a self-hating Jew by Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, who denied the report.Sources said that Emanuel, whose father was an underground fighter against the British Mandate before Israel was re-established as a country in 1948, has arguably landed President Obama in hot water for pushing policies that squeezed the Israeli coalition led by Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu.Emanuel is expected to announce on Friday whether he will run for mayor of Chicago, in President Obama’s home state. Regardless of his decision, reports have been floating for months that he has caused problems for the president, particularly among Jewish donors.To say I don’t sleep easily with the current administration’s relationship to Israel would be an understatement,billionaire Israeli native and Obama supporter Chaim Saban said earlier this year. He added that when he expressed his views to the White House, Emanuel said his own views were more hawkish than 50 percent of Israelis. The figure is highly doubtful considering the makeup of Israel's Knesset and poll results, and reflects the insularity of President Obama’s appointments.
Politco.com reported that President Obama is likely to replace him with one of his “insiders’ rather than take the risk of making a radical change in his staff. If Emanuel quits, a replacement probably will not be named until after the mid-term Congressional elections in November. Polls so far point to a likely vote revolt against President Obama’s Democratic party.Another help wanted sign may be hung out to replace White House senior advisor David Axelrod, another Jew in President Obama’s inner circle. He said this week that he probably will leave office in several months, as previously planned.A third departure may include General (ret.) James Jones, the U.S. national security advisor. Both Jones and Emanuel are far from being friends of the Netanyahu government. The IDF privately was critical of him when he served as the Middle East military envoy in Judea and Samaria.President Obama won cheers for appointing a Jew as White House Chief of Staff, but the applause rapidly became mixed with suspicion and trepidation after Emanuel’s background became known. He took pride in choreographing the handshake on the White lawn between then-President Bill Clinton, Palestinian Authority chairman Yasser Arafat and former Prime Minister Yitzchak Rabin.Emanuel was quoted later as saying he that he wanted to see similar diplomatic maneuvers. He is widely viewed as having steered President Obama towards stiff opposition to a Jewish presence in areas of Jerusalem claimed by the Palestinian Authority as well as all of Judea and Samaria.
Several months ago, Emanuel brought his son to Israel for a Bar Mitzvah but avoided visiting the Western Wall, a common venue for American Bar Mitzvahs. His presence there would have been viewed by the Palestinian Authority as recognition of Israeli sovereignty over the holy site, adjacent to the Temple Mount.Emanuel’s frequent use of rude language vaulted him into the headlines at the same time he had intensified the powers of Chief of Staff, acting as a liaison with Congress as well as trying to stifle criticism of his boss.With domestic issues dominating the concerns of America voters, Emanuel's successor, whoever he is, is expected to be less active in Middle East affairs.(IsraelNationalNews.com)
Who Tried to Fly Land Mines from Canada to Israel?
by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu SEPT 28,10
El Al foiled an attempt to fly land mines from Canada to Israel, but no one yet knows who tried to send them or why.Security guards at El Al’s terminal in Toronto’s Pearson International Airport refused to let the cargo on board before inspection. It had arrived without advance notice.All cargo flown on El Al undergoes a thorough check according to our security regulations,” El Al officials stated, without commenting on the shipment. However, after the sender of the cargo was located, El Al was able to determine that the land mines were not part of a terrorist attack, but meant for training an international force stationed in the Sinai.Last week, a Pakistan International Airlines flight from Toronto to Karachi landed in Sweden after Canadian police received two phone calls from an anonymous woman that a passenger on the flight had explosives.Officials in Sweden temporarily held one man before releasing him, after they found no explosives on him or the plane.(Israel NationalNews.com)

LA bakes in record heatwave
– Mon Sep 27, 7:07 pm ET
LOS ANGELES (AFP) – Los Angeles baked in record temperatures on Monday, bringing sweltering scenes to the West Coast metropolis nearly a month after the end of the main August heat.As firefighters remained on alert in tinderbox conditions around the outskirts of the city, temperatures hit 113 degrees Fahrenheit (45 degrees Celsius) in downtown, the highest since records began in 1877.Streets remained unusually empty, as Angelinos sought the shelter of air-conditioned shops, offices and homes.But in the city center the heatwave, which began at the weekend and is set to last days more, sent some locals frolicking in a walk-through fountain just next to Hollywood's famous Kodak theatre, home of the Oscars.There was a spike around noon that bumped temperatures up, said Stuart Seto of the National Weather Service, after the old record of 112 degrees, set on June 26, 1990, was beaten shortly after midday.
Los Angeles firefighters have been on high alert for days for wildfires which can take hold rapidly in the brush and dry woodlands which surround the city.Although temperatures were high Monday, there was little wind -- giving some relief that any blaze would not spread so easily.The heatwave comes after a cooler-than-usual summer for Los Angeles, which typically enjoys 300 days of sun a year, albeit with summer temperatures more typically in the 70s and 80s.

Heavy rains spark big floods over Central America
– Mon Sep 27, 1:41 am ET
MEXICO CITY (AFP) – The remnants of Tropical Storm Matthew have dumped torrential rains on southern Mexico and much of Central America, killing at least four people as it let loose floods and mudslides across the water-logged region.In El Salvador, a 32-year-old man was killed when he was swept away by a swollen river, and another person was missing, authorities said.In Mexico's southern Chiapas state, three Tzeltal Indians, two of them children, perished when their house collapsed during a heavy rainstorm.It happened late Sunday, when flood waters swept away a house and its three occupants, said Chilon town official Julian Hernandez.Chiapas Civil Protection director Luis Manuel Garcia said Matthew caused heavy damage across the state.There are mudslides in eight municipalities... The worst damage is in Yajalon town, where 215 homes have been affected and around 1,000 families have moved to shelters, he said.Five states in southern and eastern Mexico were under storm alerts due to the heavy rains, including Veracruz, still suffering from Hurricane Karl earlier this month.At 1500 GMT the center of the remnant low pressure area was moving westward over far southern Mexico and "could become nearly stationary by tonight, the Miami-based National Hurricane Center said.
Destructive winds were no longer the concern; authorities were on red alert for more flooding and mudslides in a mountainous region that is in the midst of one of the most intense rainy seasons in the past 60 years.In a sign of increasing danger for Mexico and Guatemala, the NHC raised its forecast for rainfall as the weather system slowed its forward crawl over the region.The system is expected to produce total rain accumulations of 25-50 centimeters (10 to 20 inches) from far southern Mexico into northern portions of Central America with isolated maximum amounts of 76 centimeters (30 inches) possible, the Miami-based NHC warned.These rains could produce life-threatening flash floods and mudslides,it stressed.Thousands in rural Central America live close to rivers likely to burst their banks, because they depend on them for water and farming.Karl left 14 people dead in Veracruz earlier this month, and an estimated 400,000 people homeless.Mexico has said it is being lashed by the wettest rainy season on record.Flooding and landslides have killed more than 300 people in Central America, left tens of thousands homeless and caused billions of dollars in damage in recent months, officials said.
Mexican governor: hundreds feared dead in slide By IXTLI MARTINEZ, Associated Press Writer - SEPT 28,10
OAXACA, Mexico – A hillside collapsed on a rural Mexican community on Tuesday and the region's governor said hundreds of people are feared dead.Oaxaca state Gov. Ulises Ruiz told the Televisa television network that the early morning landslide in the town Santa Maria de Tlahuitoltepec buried 100 to 300 houses and speculated that 500 to 1,000 people could be dead.Donato Vargas, an official in Santa Maria de Tlahuitoltepec reached by a satellite telephone, said 500 people were missing and that 300 homes were buried.We were all sleeping and all I heard was a loud noise and when I left the house I saw that the hill had fallen, Vargas said.He said he called the Mexican army and state officials for help.It has been difficult informing authorities because the road are very bad and there isn't a good signal for our phone, Vargas said shortly before the call dropped.Ruiz said the landslide followed days of rain in the Sierra de Juarez region.Rescuers were flying in from Mexico City and emergency personnel have been sent to the town about 50 miles (80 kilometers) east of Oaxaca city and 130 miles (220 kilometers) from Mexico City.There has been lots of rain, rivers have overflowed and we're having a hard time reaching the area because there are landslides on the roads, he said.Luis Marin, an official with Oaxaca state's civil protection department, said rescue crews had yet to reach the area.
Germany opposed to extending euro rescue fund GEIR MOULSON, Associated Press Writer - SEPT 28,10
BERLIN – The huge rescue fund that saved the euro this year should not be extended beyond 2013, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said Tuesday, as she called instead for tougher consequences for overspending by member states in the currency bloc.Merkel's comments came as haggling over changes to the rules that underpin the euro heats up. On Wednesday, EU Monetary Affairs Commissioner Olli Rehn plans to issue a proposal for member states to be punished early for spending their way into trouble.Germany has led the push for tougher rules to prevent a repeat of the debt crisis that started in Greece and then rippled across Europe.That forced governments and the International Monetary Fund to put together a euro750 billion ($1 trillion) safety net for indebted governments, euro440 billion of that from European countries. The fund can issue bailouts until June 2013.I say here very clearly that there will not be an extension of the aid fund, rather we need treaty changes in Europe, Merkel said at a German industry group's conference in Berlin.Those changes should make clear that countries which do not keep to the stability and growth pact can be subjected to different procedures than the ones we have today,she said.She did not elaborate, but added that with Germany, there will not be a simple extension of such (rescue) funds as we now have.Rehn said last week that, once it has gathered experience with the current rescue fund, the European Commission may next year come up with proposals for what kind of a permanent mechanism for crisis resolution we should build when the facility expires.
Under the European Union's stability and growth pact, governments are supposed to keep their budget deficits to a maximum 3 percent of gross domestic product.On Monday, France rejected any idea of punishing EU nations with near-automatic sanctions if they fail to keep their debt and budget deficits within limits — putting Paris at odds with Germany and the European Central Bank.Rehn insisted sanctions decisions could only be undone by a large majority of member states — but France insists that a simple majority should suffice to decide on sanctions.Merkel said Tuesday she had been right to insist that countries put their budgets in order as a condition for this year's rescue packages.Europe must take great care that the countries which show weaknesses today become stronger,she said.
Greece checks NKorea cargo, in arms probe By ELENA BECATOROS, Associated Press Writer - SEPT 28,10
ATHENS, Greece – A government official in Greece says authorities are inspecting a cargo ship suspected of carrying weapon parts from North Korea to Syria.The official says inspectors on Tuesday searched freight containers looking for possible dual use materials that would violate a United Nations arms embargo on North Korea.The official gave no other details and asked not to be named, pending a formal announcement on the results of the inspection.Greek state-run media says the inspection is taking place at the country's main port of Piraeus, near Athens.

2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.
3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.
7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.
8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.
10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.
12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.
Brazil warns of world currency war: report
– Tue Sep 28, 5:28 am ET
LONDON (AFP) – The world is in the grip of a currency war, with leading nations using devaluation to solve economic problems, Brazilian Finance Minister Guido Mantega has warned in remarks reported from Sao Paulo.We're in the midst of an international currency war, a general weakening of currency, he said in remarks reported by the Financial Times newspaper.This threatens us because it takes away our competitiveness.Japan, South Korea and Taiwan have intervened recently to pull down the value of their currencies, the newspaper noted, and the dollar has fallen by about 25 percent so far this year against the Brazilian real. Such a fall increases the price of Brazilian exports on the US market.The remarks are set against a background of increasing tension notably between the United States and China over the value of the yuan.The United States has complained for years that China has held down artificially the value of its currency, preventing it from rising to reflect the strength of China's foreign exchange earnings from exporting, notably to the US market.This came to a head at the end of last week while the UN General Assembly meeting was being held when China's Premier Wen Jiabao told a business forum in New York that voiced fears of social unrest if Beijing bowed to US pressure.
If the (yuan) appreciates by 20 to 40 percent according to requests of the US government, we do not know how many Chinese companies will go bankrupt and how many Chinese workers will be laid off and how many rural workers will go back to their homes and there will be major turbulence in Chinese society, he sid.In recent weeks, sentiment has grown on financial markets that the United States, which has already hinted at using World Trade Organization rules to retaliate, may see a fall of the dollar as a way of increasing pressure.Meanwhile, there is strong debate in the United States over whether a new stimulus package would be an appropriate way to give the economy a new boost. New stimulus might also weaken the dollar, some analysts say.The mismatch between savings and external surpluses built up by some countries and the external deficits in some advanced countries, mainly the United States, together with exchange rates pegged to the dollar, are widely regarded as important causal factors behind the recent global economic crisis.Among the basic lessons of the Great Depression in the 1930s were that protectionism and so-called competitive devaluations make matters worse all round. At the height of the recent crisis, governments were at pains to express rejection of protectionism.
Lawmaker eyes late-year Senate vote on China yuan
SEPT 28,10
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The Senate is unlikely to vote on legislation to pressure China to raise the value of its currency until after the November 2 congressional elections, a Democratic senator said on Tuesday.Senator Sherrod Brown told reporters he saw strong bipartisan support for currency legislation the House of Representatives is to vote on this week. However, it is unlikely the Senate will vote on the bill before lawmakers recess in coming days to go home to campaign, he said.Many members of Congress believe China deliberately undervalues its currency by as much as 25 percent to 40 percent to give its companies an unfair price advantage.
The House bill deals with that issue by directing the Commerce Department to treat undervalued currencies as an export subsidy.That opens the door for U.S. companies to seek countervailing duties to offset China's currency advantage. However, companies must prove they have been injured, or are threatened with serious injury, by competing imports from China to win the relief.I think a majority of senators, including some number of Republicans, understand that China is gaming the currency system and that causes an imbalance trade that we need to fix, Brown, a Senate Banking Committee member, told reporters.The House bill, unlike many other pieces of legislation, is a short, readable bill, that is easy to comprehend, Brown said. He said he thought President Barack Obama would think twice about vetoing the legislation if it reached his desk.Obama and his advisers understand the United States will never be able to deal with its $20 billion-a-month trade deficit with China without addressing the currency issue, Brown said after a speech on how to revitalize U.S. manufacturing.House Democratic leader Steny Hoyer told the same audience lawmakers had worked with the Obama administration to ensure that the currency bill was consistent with World Trade Organization rules.We worked to make sure -- the administration and I and others wanted to make sure -- ... that it is WTO compliant. It is not an issue of closing our borders. It is an issue of making the playing field level and fair, Hoyer said.By illegally keeping the value of its currency low, China is able to sell its goods in the United States at an artificially low price, which helps put American manufacturers out of work.
The House will vote on the bill on Wednesday, Hoyer told reporters.A spokeswoman for the U.S. Trade Representative's office declined to say whether the Obama administration thought the bill was consistent with WTO rules.We do not typically comment publicly on the WTO-consistency of pending legislation,she said.(Reporting by Doug Palmer; editing by Mohammad Zargham)
Petrobras becomes third biggest oil firm
– Mon Sep 27, 7:26 pm ET
SAO PAULO (AFP) – Brazil's state-run Petrobras became the world's third-biggest oil firm by market capitalization Monday as it completed a record share issue expected to bring in around 70 billion dollars.After selling the stock on the New York stock exchange from last Friday, in the form of American Depository Receipts, the company began also selling the shares Monday on the Sao Paulo stock exchange.Those shares rose 1.93 percent to 30.23 reals by the end of trading -- higher than the 29.65 reals the new shares were priced at for trading, showing strong demand.The offering has made Petrobras the third largest oil company in the world after US-based ExxonMobil and PetroChina.Brokers, though, said a long-term uncertainty, a negative pressure lingered over the shares because of doubts over investors' returns.The government's increase in its stake in Petrobras, from 40 percent to 48 percent, also generated concerns.The degree of government intervention in decisions during the whole (capitalization) process was too high for a publicly listed company, said Miriam Leitao, an economic columnist for the newspaper O Globo.She noted that Petrobras had lost a quarter of its value over this year because of that preoccupation.Small investors are in the hands of the government, Fabio Knczuk, an economics professor at the University of Sao Paulo, told AFP.
Petrobras is to use the proceeds from the share sale to explore the offshore oil fields, which are so big they could make Brazil a major exporter.The company wants to boost capital expenditure over the next five years to 224 billion dollars to exploit the fresh reserves.Petrobras estimates the so-called subsalt fields could more than triple its existing proven oil reserves of 14 billion barrels.

Nigeria: Flood ruins crops as food remains scarce By JON GAMBRELL, Associated Press Writer – Mon Sep 27, 11:54 pm ET
GUDINCHIN, Nigeria – After water nearly overtook his village in northern Nigeria, Ali Gudinchin jumped into the rushing flood with a knife, cutting away ears of corn from stalks barely rising above the muddy surface.He ended up with only three sacks worth of food, compared to the 50-odd bags of grains and vegetables he typically grows during the arid region's brief fertile season.The insects were biting me as I cut, said Gudinchin, a 50-year-old man who uses his village's name as his surname, which is customary.It was pain in addition to the pain of losing the crop.Flood waters that rushed through his home in rural Jigawa state now cover about 34 square miles (55 square kilometers) of farmland there. As the bright sun begins to slowly dry the fields, all the farmers have are ruined stalks and dying plants — the latest strain on food in a region where other nearby countries face serious shortages.The floods have come at the worst possible time — just before harvest — when it is too late for farmers to replant their fields of millet, sorghum and cowpea, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.In northern Nigeria, unusually heavy seasonal rains sent water surging through overflowing rivers. A dam failed in the northern state of Sokoto, flooding out rural pasturelands there and killing about 40 people, according to local media reports.
In Jigawa, local officials blame the inundation on officials opening two dams at reservoirs in neighboring Kano state. Typically, the water released yearly from the dams flows into farm fields across the region known as the Sahel, a band of semi-arid land stretching across Africa south of the Sahara. The waters irrigated the crops of Jigawa, a state home to more than 4 million people.This time, a huge wave of water from the reservoirs raced through already saturated stream and creek beds, quickly topping over Jigawa state's simple earthen levees, said Umar Kyari, a spokesman for Gov. Sule Lamido.About 2 million people — about half of the state's population — have been displaced or affected by the flooding that began two weeks ago, he said.The village of Gudinchin — home to a few hundred people once surrounded by fields of tomatoes, corn, rice and millet — is now cut off from the rest of Jigawa, an island in the midst of murky, fast-moving water ripe with unprocessed sewage. Besides swimming, the only way across comes from two, low-riding wooden canoes donated by the government.There, the dirt-walled granary quickly became a pile of muddy debris when the waters rushed in one night. Villagers used its walls to build an earthen levee against the rushing water. The millet able to be eaten can now be lifted up in only two handfuls.Garba Gudinchin, 55, said he and others live in fear that their dam won't hold long enough to allow the sun to burn away the remaining water. But beyond that, nearly all the village's crops now sit in ruin.I cannot tell you the figure because it is big, he said in the local Hausa language.
Nigeria, Africa's most populous country, relies on the crop from its northern states to feed the mouths of those in its oil-rich and commerce-driven south.Kyari, the governor's spokesman, warned the loss of crops would drive up food prices in the country, where most earn less than $1 a day. Kyari also estimates state ranchers lost millions of dollars worth of cattle in the flooding.The nation's farmers also supply other West African nations with their crops, countries already facing droughts and food shortages.In neighboring Niger, international aid experts warn the country faces the worst hunger crisis in its history following a prolonged drought and poor growing season last year. One of the poorest countries in Africa, Niger now has more than 7 million people — almost 50 percent of the population — suffering from a lack of food, officials say.Gautam Chatterjee, head of mission in Nigeria for Medecins Sans Frontieres, also known as Doctors without Borders, said the flooding could affect the region for the next two to three months. In the longer term, this means an increase in food insecurity and an increase in malnutrition, especially for children under 5, Chatterjee said. For now, villagers in Gudinchin who lost their homes, like Mohammed Auwal, live with their neighbors. Flood waters washed away his home and those of his immediate family. His crops, which once stood out against the gray dirt of the farm fields nearby, can no longer be seen.It's all destroyed, Auwal said.Associated Press Writer Artis Henderson in Dakar, Senegal, contributed to this report.
North Korean leader makes his son a 4-star general By HYUNG-JIN KIM, Associated Press Writer - SEPT 28,10
SEOUL, South Korea – Kim Jong Il made his mysterious youngest son a four-star general in a promotion seen Tuesday as the first step toward his ascent as the next leader of North Korea — extending the family dynasty in the reclusive totalitarian country to a third generation.The announcement was published in state media hours before a historic Workers' Party meeting where the 68-year-old Kim, who apparently is in deteriorating health, was expected to bestow a party title on his son, Kim Jong Un, who is in his 20s.The North Korean capital of Pyongyang was decorated with banners and placards celebrating the country's biggest political gathering in 30 years. It was at a similar meeting in 1980 where state media revealed that Kim Jong Il was in line to succeed his father, Kim Il Sung, the country's founder who died in 1994.At Tuesday's meeting, Kim Jong Il was re-elected to the party's top position of general secretary. State media gave no further details on what was discussed or decided. Footage shot by broadcaster APTN showed buses carrying party delegates leaving Pyongyang, a sign the meeting may have ended.
The moves come at a time of tension on the Korean peninsula.Earlier this year, a South Korean naval warship sank near the maritime border shared by the two Koreas, which have remained in a state of war since their three-year conflict ended in a truce in 1953. Seoul and Washington, which maintains 28,500 troops in South Korea, blame Pyongyang for torpedoing the ship. Pyongyang denies responsibility and has warned that any punishment would mean war.North Korea also remains at odds with international powers over its nuclear program, and was slapped with widespread U.N. sanctions last year after conducting a prohibited long-range rocket test and detonating a nuclear device. Pyongyang is believed to have enough weaponized plutonium to build a half-dozen nuclear bombs.The news of the son's promotion was the North Korean media's first mention of Kim Jong Un, who has remained so well-hidden from the outside world that not even his face or exact age can be confirmed. He is believed to be 27, and is said to have been schooled in Switzerland and educated at Kim Il Sung Military University in Pyongyang.Analysts saw it as confirmation he is slated to become North Korea's next leader.Kim Jong Un's promotion is the starting point for his formal succession to power,said Kim Yong-hyun, a North Korea expert at Dongguk University in Seoul.
It's clearly the biggest news we've had from North Korea since the death of Kim Il Sung, said Peter Beck, a Council on Foreign Relations-Hitachi research fellow at Keio University in Tokyo.I think it clearly demonstrates that Kim Jong Il is committed to maintaining control of the country within his family, he said.The appointment also appears aimed at putting the son at the helm of his father's songun, or military-first, policy. He is expected to take up other top military jobs such as commander of the 1.2 million-member military, analyst Cheong Seong-chang of the private Sejong Institute think tank said.The secrecy surrounding the succession process is typical of North Korea, and reminiscent of Kim Jong Il's own rise to power.Kim Jong Il was 31 when he won the No. 2 post in the ruling Workers' Party in 1973, an appointment seen as a key step in the path to succeeding his father.The following year, Kim was formally tapped as the future leader but state media did not reveal that to the outside world until the landmark 1980 convention, the last big political meeting in North Korea.He took over in 1994 after Kim Il Sung died of heart failure in what was communism's first hereditary succession.Who will become the North's next leader is being closely watched in other nations.
In Tokyo, Foreign Minister Seiji Maehara said Japan's goal to end Pyongyang's nuclear program remains the same whatever change is made in North Korea's leadership. U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Kurt M. Campbell said Washington is watching developments carefully for clues to North Korea's nuclear policy. In Seoul, South Korea's ruling Grand National Party denounced the North's succession process, calling it anachronistic.It's not known what kind of party position Kim Jong Un might be granted. Some predict he'll win the same post his father took 37 years ago: party secretary authorized to supervise party members and appoint top party, government and military officials. However, the younger Kim may not have the benefit of 20 years of training like his father.Kim Jong Il, said to have diabetes and a kidney ailment, reportedly had a stroke in August 2008, sparking fears about instability and a possible power struggle in the nuclear-armed country if he were to die without anointing a successor.Kim has two other sons but the youngest is said to be his favorite.However, with Kim Jong Un still politically inexperienced, Kim Jong Il may tap his sister to oversee an eventually transfer of power, experts say. Sister Kim Kyong Hui, 64, was among six people promoted to general along with Kim Jong Un, and her name was listed ahead of Kim Jong Un's in the Korean Central News Agency report.There is a possibility that she could play the role of a coordinator to make sure the power succession goes smoothly, analyst Cheong said.She and her husband, Jang Song Thaek, appointed a vice chairman of the all-powerful National Defense Commission in June, also are expected to win key political appointments that would allow them to act as advisers to the young Kim during his rise to power. The key here is bloodline, Ha Tae-keung, chief of Open Radio for North Korea, a Seoul-based radio station specializing in North Korean affairs, told reporters in Seoul. Both Jang and his wife will never rule North Korea as Jong Un's regents, and will only function as advisers.In a brief announcement Tuesday, a North Korean news reader said crucial developments were taking place at the political meeting in Pyongyang and that Kim Jong Il was re-elected to the party's top position of general secretary to delegates' cheers of Hurrah.His re-election is an expression of absolute support and trust of all the party members, the servicepersons and the people in Kim Jong Il, KCNA said, calling it a historic event.The convention, initially set for early September, appears to have been delayed by several weeks amid speculation that Kim's health or damage from flooding and typhoons may have forced the postponement.This meeting of the delegates is an important occasion for further strengthening the solidarity of our army, our party, and our people, who are rallying behind the great Gen. Kim Jong Il, Kim Chang Gyong, an assistant professor at North Korea's Academy of Social Sciences, told broadcaster APTN.Associated Press writers Kelly Olsen, Kwang-tae Kim, Jean H. Lee and Sangwon Yoon in Seoul and Mari Yamaguchi in Tokyo contributed to this report.
Canada vows to protect recovery but end stimulus
By John McCrank - Mon Sep 27, 2:07 pm ET
MONTREAL (Reuters) – Canada's government said on Monday it would take action as needed to protect the shaky economic recovery, but resisted pressure to prolong stimulus spending as its focus turns to tackling its budget deficit.Finance Minister Jim Flaherty said the Conservative federal government has committed 98 percent of the $22 billion it had planned for the second year of its C$48 billion economic stimulus package, which was aimed at softening the blow of the recession that ended late last year.But as the recovery loses steam and economists predict a slight economic contraction in July, the first monthly contraction in almost a year, the minority government of Prime Minister Stephen Harper has come under pressure to keep the stimulus tap running beyond the March 2011 end of the program.Flaherty said the Canadian economy has recovered all the jobs lost during the recession and output has also returned to pre-recession levels. But he conceded it is a very uncertain time for the global economy.That's why the next few months are so critical for our country as this government continues our efforts to create jobs, to boost investment and to make our nation even more competitive .... he told reporters in Montreal.In the short term, the government is focused on finishing the job of implementing the economic action plan. We will also continue to monitor economic development closely and will take action as necessary to protect the economic recovery, he told reporters in Montreal.
Flaherty noted signs the private sector would soon replace the government in stimulating growth.We've seen this year some increases in the investment in machinery and equipment by Canadian business, which is quite encouraging in terms of future private-sector demand, he said.Canada's economy has fared better than that of the United States and some other major economies due to strong consumer spending and a robust housing market.The Bank of Canada became the first central bank in the Group of Seven advanced economies to raise interest rates following the global financial crisis and has now hiked rates three times since June. In contrast, the U.S. Federal Reserve is considering possibly taking further action to boost the economy there.In its report on Monday on the status of the stimulus funds, Ottawa said it has committed federal money to 23,000 projects. It said work on 97 percent of them has begun or has been completed.
OPPOSITION ATTACKS
But the main opposition party, the Liberals, kept up their attacks on Harper's economic management on Monday. They keep talking about the fact that Canada has replaced jobs. That's great ... But the reality is that the jobs that came back are more temporary, and part time and more insecure than the jobs we lost, said Liberal Party leader Michael Ignatieff.Harper needs the support of at least one of the three opposition parties to stay in power. Polls show his Conservatives have a slight lead over his rivals in popular support, not enough to win a majority.Flaherty did show some wiggle room on a Liberal demand that the government show more flexibility on its March 2011 cut-off date for finishing municipal infrastructure projects so that municipalities can get federal cash for them.Municipal and provincial governments are expected to have contributed C$7 billion to the stimulus program in each of its two years, but they could get hit with an additional C$500 million bill if projects are not finished on time, the Parliamentary Budget Officer has estimated.Flaherty said the government would be fair and reasonable about funding for projects that are nearly completed.Ottawa expects its 2009-10 budget deficit to be just over C$50 billion, or about 3.5 percent of gross domestic product. It aims to reduce the deficit to a marginal 0.1 percent of GDP by 2015, a feat the International Monetary Fund says it can achieve and which would give Canada the best fiscal standing in the G7.Ottawa will provide new growth and budget forecasts in its annual autumn fiscal update, which is usually presented to Parliament in late October.

Australia's first Muslim MP sworn in on Koran
Tue Sep 28, 6:21 am ET
SYDNEY (AFP) – The first Muslim elected to Australia's parliament was sworn in on Tuesday with his hand on his parents' Koran.Ed Husic, whose mother and father are Bosnian migrants, said it was an enormous privilege to serve in Canberra as he conceded that his unique place in Australian political history was something of a milestone.Given my background, there are some people taking a small slice of pride or happiness, he told The Australian newspaper.Husic, a former union boss who grew up in the western Sydney area he represents, won his place in the 150-seat House of Representatives in Canberra for the ruling Labor Party in August 21 polls.He was among the MPs sworn into Australia's 43rd parliament by the chief justice of the high court in Canberra on Tuesday.Muslims make up about 1.7 percent of Australia's heavily Christian population of 22 million.Husic was upfront about his religion when interviewed last month.If someone asks me are you Muslim I say yes. And then if someone says 'Well do you pray and go to a mosque and do all the other things that are associated with the faith?' I say no, he told ABC TV last month.I often get told that I describe myself as non-practising when in actual fact I don't go round saying that. Like I just say I'm Muslim.
Surveillance satellite in orbit after Calif launch

VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. – A new Space Based Surveillance satellite is orbiting Earth after a successful launch from Vandenberg Air Force Base on the central California coast.Diana Bell — a spokeswoman for the satellite's builder Boeing — said Sunday it was a picture-perfect launch on a beautiful Saturday night for the Minotaur 4 rocket carrying the satellite.Ball says the launch team was able to see the satellite for a long stretch on the warm, clear night.A pair of Los Angeles television stations said they received several calls from viewers asking about the fireball they'd seen in the sky.The satellite was designed to detect and monitor debris and space objects that could be a threat to national security and communications. It will be operated from Schriever Air Force Base, Colo.
Glenn Beck Channels Alex Jones to Sell Globalist Snake Oil
Kurt Nimmo Infowars.com September 28, 2010
http://www.infowars.com/glenn-beck-channels-alex-jones-to-sell-globalist-snake-oil/
Glenn Beck is paid millions of dollars a year to deflect the righteous anger of the American people away from the bankster elite and focus it on a gaggle of washed-up 60s radicals. In the process, meaningful political action is harmlessly deflected away from the controllers and safely expended on a handful of useful idiot scapegoats funded by globalist foundations, so-called progressive PACs, and corporate labor unions.It is amazing how much Glenn Beck sounds like Alex Jones. The reason for this is because Beck’s people listen to the Alex Jones Show, take notes, and then relay what Jones talks about on any given day back to their master. An inside source at Fox News has verified this to be the case.Beck then takes what Jones talks about and refashions it into his trademark attack on irrelevant leftists, Marxists, admirers of Mao and Stalin, archaic SDS throwbacks — who were long ago infiltrated by the FBI — and academic socialist utopians who have about as much of a chance of taking power as an invasion of six-eyed aliens from Planet X do.In the video above, Beck talks about Cass Sunstein, police GPS and cell phone tracking, mobile x-ray scanners, government control of thermostats and big screen televisions, and Al Gore using the green agenda to turn children against their parents — topics Alex Jones talks about routinely on his radio and internet television program.
According to Beck, the green agenda and the police state grid are part of a diabolical progressive plan to create a communist dictatorship and march those of us who disagree off to re-education and death camps. In the past, Beck has used Stalin and Mao as examples of the sort of dictators the so-called progressives have in mind. Never mentioned is the fact the communist system Stalin exploited was installed in Russia by Wall Street. Beck has yet to mention that David Rockefeller believes Mao was an idea leader, never mind the 70 plus million people he systematically exterminated.To be fair, Beck has tied Goldman Sachs to the funding of the Chicago Climate Exchange and the cap and trade scheme. But he invariably brings it all full circle to the progressives, labor unions, Van Jones, ACORN, and Obama’s past as an Alinsky-inspired community organizer in Chicago.And for some reason Beck is silent about Fox News and its push for a green agenda.Beck often harps on the globalist George Soros, the Center for American Progress, John Podesta, and the Clinton-era Democrats while failing to mention the fact that Soros is a Bilderberger and a member of the Council on Foreign Relations along with his supposed polar opposite, the RINO Newt Gingrich, who has been a CFR member since 1990. He is also a prized member of the Bohemian Grove where he presumably gets down with the sort of homosexual male prostitutes that made Richard Nixon ill.Glenn Beck is not a patriot, but he plays one on television. He was hired to lead the sheep down the primrose path to the slaughter. Beck and Palin will steer the potentially dangerous Tea Party movement safely into the grandstands where they will be expected to follow the Republican platform of never-ending neocon wars and further encroachments on the Constitution and the Bill of Rights in the name of fighting terrorism manufactured by the CIA and perpetuated by the global intelligence monolith that serves the interests of Wall Street and the international bankster cartel.
Beck has his script. A substantial part of it was stolen from Alex Jones and the patriot movement. The final act was modified.In the end, as the globalists consolidate power, Glenn Beck and his controllers will have us chasing demons dredged up from the 1960s when the establishment — with the help of doctrinaire communists and the FBI — sold the SDS down the river and created the Weathermen from the ground up to demonize the antiwar movement. Now the remnants of the so-called New Left work for the globalist foundations. Old antiwar activists now pointlessly spend their time organizing marches and events that never seem to make a difference as the forever wars of the elite and their neocon faction march forward to claim more innocent victims under false pretense. Instead of effective activism, we get Code Pink prancing around like clowns for the television cameras.Get ready for Beck to pitch the RINO Tea Party in November. It was compromised early on when Republican operatives lifted the idea from Ron Paul and the Libertarians.The Glenn Beck Tea Party will reassert the ideology of the neocons. After the Democrats lose control of Congress in November and Obama is removed from office in 2012, you will not hear about Marxists, socialists, or the green meanies controlling your thermostat. Glenn Beck may even retire. It will be Mission Accomplished.Following November of 2012, the message will be about the Muslims again, especially white Muslims with European surnames. It will also be about patriots who will be portrayed as white supremacists, although without the same theatrics of Keith, Ed, and Rachel.
White House Science Czar Questioned The Right of Unborn Child to Live Inside Womb Jurriaan Maessen Infowars.com September 28, 2010
It is almost tiresome, but yet another writing by White House science czar John P. Holdren has surfaced- this time questioning the right of a potential human to live and grow in the womb of an actual woman. One could fill a medium-sized library with the writings by this Malthusian monster, denouncing humans and their right to live under the sun.Holdren believes that children during the early years after birth cannot yet be considered human beings.In 1972, John P. Holdren and his old buddy Paul Ehrlich wrote an article in The Canadian Nurse. The article is entitled Abortion and Morality. The subtitle reads as follows: Has a potential human the right to live inside an actual woman without her consent? The article goes on to list the well-known arguments for abortion, such as If abortion is needed by individuals and by society, is medically safe, and is not patently immoral, it is difficult to be sure exactly what is accomplished in subjecting the procedure to restrictive government scrutiny, Holdren and Ehrich say. Infants, the two continue, are entitled to due process and equal protection under the Fouteenth Amendment to the (US) Constitution, but fetuses are not. Because of this distinction, the relaxation of abortion laws could scarcely imperil the rights of infants or of elderly and otherwise dependant people. (…) Repeal of abortion laws is long overdue. These were not some isolated comment by two overzealous eco-fascists. In the 1973 publication Human Ecology: Problems and Solutions, Holdren and the Ehrlichs wrote quite candidly about their basic view on life, providing us with yet another peek at the decaying undergrowth out of which the Ecoscience document has emerged- proposing among other things a planetary regime to assume command of matters of life and death.
In chapter 8 of the Human Ecology-document, page 235, Holdren gives us his definition of human life:The fetus, Holdren writes, given the opportunity to develop properly before birth, and given the essential early socializing experiences and sufficient nourishing food during the crucial early years after birth, will ultimately develop into a human being.In other words, Holdren not only argues, as he did in 1972, that the unborn may not be considered human- he believes that children during the early years after birth, cannot yet be considered human beings. Given this presumption by Obama’s science adviser, it may not come as a surprise that he does not shy away from coercive abortion policies or other such measures to scale back the population. After all, if an infant cannot be construed as a human being, as Holdren argues, God-given rights do not apply to them nor does constitutional protection- and therefore they can be deemed as completely at the government’s mercy.

France keen to muscle in on Middle East peace process-Mr Sarkozy (r) on Monday also criticised Israel for its settlements policy. The colonisation must end, he said (Photo: elysee.fr)ANDREW RETTMAN Today SEPT 28,10 @ 09:13 CET
EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - French President Nicolas Sarkozy has called a Middle East summit in Paris and criticised Barack Obama's and Catherine Ashton's handling of the peace process so far.Speaking at a press conference with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas at the Elysee palace on Monday (26 September), the French leader invited Mr Abbas, Israeli premier Benjamin Netanyahu and Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak to come to the French capital in late October. He said the Paris summit will prepare for a larger meeting of the EU-sponsored multilateral club, the Union for the Mediterranean, in November and noted that US domination of the process has yielded no results so far.There is a problem of method ... Nothing will be solved without the strong engagement of the Americans. This is my belief as you perfectly well know. I've always thought his. But does this strong engagement, which we need, have to be exclusive? This question has been asked for the past 10 years, since Camp David. If an exclusive engagement was enough, why is there no peace? he said.We don't want to be spectators who just watch as time goes by,he added.It is not viable to continue like this - and President Abbas agrees with me - for Europe to finance everything but to stay outside the political process. These things must go together. I am profoundly European and I want Europe to take back ownership of important political dossiers such as this.The EU is the largest aid donor to the Palestinian authorities. But EU foreign relations chief Catherine Ashton has stayed away from the first three rounds of recent peace talks in Washington, Sharm el Sheikh and Jerusalem.
Mr Sarkozy did not name Ms Ashton on Monday. But a French diplomat told EUobserver that his remarks should be understood in the same way as French foreign minister Bernard Kouchner's earlier criticism of her absenteeism.This is the same logic. The EU should definitely be be at the table and we were surprised that the EU was not there at the table these last few times, the diplomatic contact said.A source in the EU institutions compared the October summit in Paris to Mr Sarkozy's peace mission to the Middle East in the 2008/2009 Gaza war, when France competed with the then Czech EU presidency to play the biggest role in the crisis. It is well-known that France wants to be present in this process. It is not just about the EU. France wants a role for itself,the EU official said.Ms Ashton's office declined to comment on Mr Sarkozy's latest intervention but highlighted instead her co-operation with the US Special Envoy for Middle East Peace, Senator George J. Mitchell, in preparing a joint statement calling for a new freeze on Israeli settlements.US diplomats on Monday also underlined that the EU is being taken seriously as a partner in the process.The Secretary [Hilary Clinton], this afternoon here in New York, will have meetings with Foreign Minister Hague of Great Britain, Foreign Minister Kouchner of France, Foreign Minister Cannon of Canada, Foreign Minister Mualem of Syria, where we expect the Middle East will be a key topic of conversation. And later this week back in Washington, she'll have meetings with EU High Representative Catherine Ashton and German Foreign Minister Westerwelle. So we are maintaining close contact with European leaders to encourage ongoing support to the process,US State Department spokesman Philip J. Crowley said.
Sarkozy Tries to Take Over for Obama in Mideast Talks
by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu SEPT 27,10
Flamboyant French President Nicolas Sarkozy met with Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas in Paris on Monday and announced he will ask to host a new summit with the PA, Israel and Egypt next month. Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has said he would be willing to talk with Abbas at any time.With Abbas placing the diplomatic process on hold following Prime Minister Netanyahu’s refusal to extend the 10-month building freeze on Jewish homes in Judea and Samaria, Sarkozy used stronger language than U.S. President Barack Obama to oppose renewed construction for Jews.Instead of saying that renewed building is harmful to American efforts advance discussions for a New Arab country headed by the PA, Sarkozy stated. The settlements must stop. Israel has a moratorium for 10 months and it should be extended for 3 to 4 months more to give peace a chance.Israel leaders have pointed out several times that Abbas' originally demanded a building freeze and then refused to resume direct talks after the Israeli government conceded to American pressures and instituted the unprecedented moratorium. The PA argued that the building freeze was not comprehensive enough.Although Abbas said he would refuse to resume talks if the freeze were not extended, he has reacted more diplomatically and placed the ball in the court of the Arab League, which is to meet next week to discuss their next move. We will not have any quick reactions,Abbas said after meeting with Sarkozy.A summit hosted by Sarkozy would take the momentum away from the Obama administration, which has failed to bridge the gaps between the PA and Israel.
He told reporters that American involvement is necessary but is not enough. Nothing will be resolved without strong American backing,he said. But does the strong commitment that's needed have to be exclusive? That's been the question for 10 years, since Camp David. If such an exclusive commitment was enough, we'd know it.
Sarkozy’s inclination to take the limelight in international discussions has reached as far as Al-Qaeda. After its terrorists kidnapped five French citizens and two others last week, Sarkozy’s aide stated, We are ready to talk to the kidnappers, who are members of a wing of Osama bin Laden's international terrorist network.France has been reported to have frequently paid kidnappers with cash and the release of prisoners in return for French citizens and the protection of French business interests.Sarkozy’s offer to talk with the kidnappers came less than a month after he stated, It can't be our only strategy to pay ransoms and to agree to free prisoners in exchange for unlucky innocent victims.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

MEPs demand explanation on US plan to monitor all money transfers
VALENTINA POP Today SEPT 28,10 @ 09:24 CET
EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS – The EU commission and MEPs have requested clarifications from Washington on reported plans to expand an anti-terrorism programme targeting financial transactions - a move that would render void the long-debated Swift agreement enacted in August.We urgently seek clarifications from the US if these plans are an infringemet of the Swift agreement and the EU commission promised to demand further information on it, Dutch Liberal MEP Sophie in't Veld told this website on Monday evening (27 September) after a closed-door meeting with commission officials.Earlier that day, the Washington Post reported that the Obama administration was looking into expanding existing anti-terrorism programs targetting bank transfers to the extent that a long-debated agreement with the EU, dubbed the Swift agreement, would no longer be valid.Under current rules, US officials can request European data relevant to a specific terrorist investigation from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (Swift). The request needs to be approved by the EU's police co-operation unit, Europol, and has to meet certain requirements. But if the new plans go into effect, the Washington Post said: transactions between European and US banks would be captured regardless of whether there is a substantiated need.Responding to the news, Ms in't Veld said: We are all getting a bit tired of being taken by surprise all the time. The US is our friend and ally, so we shouldn't be treated this way.Set up in the aftermath of the terrorist attacks on New York and Washington in 2001, the Terorrism Finance Tracking Program was initially a covert operation, tapping Swift data without the Europeans knowing about it. It was only when the story broke, in 2006, that Washington engaged in basic negotiations with the EU, while keeping the programme up and running.
Using its new powers, acquired when the Lisbon Treaty came into force, the European Parliament in February struck down the interim agreement, interrupting the data flow for half a year. A final agreement was subsequently negotiated by the EU commission, with extra privacy and oversight provisions, and came into force on 1 August.We see so many data transfers - passenger name records (PNR), Swift data, credit card information connected to the travel fee - that we are wondering where all this ends, the Dutch MEP said.Ms in't Veld is responsible for drafting the Parliament's position on the so-called PNR agreement, which, like the Swift programme, was put into place after the 2001 terrorist attacks and which requires all airlines who fly to or over the US to deliver personal data on their passengers to the American authorities. The PNR agreement was already struck down once by the European Court of Justice for having the wrong legal basis and the current version is pending approval by the EU legislature.A compromise solution designed to discourage the parliament form using its nuclear option veto is currently being prepared by the EU commission with extra data protection provisions in place. The EU executive earlier this month presented its guiding principles for new negotiations with Washington, to be approved by interior ministers in October. The talks could start by the end of this year.I am not blaming the US for asking us for so much data. They test where the limits are and unless the EU draws some lines, they will take as much as they can, Ms in't Veld said.
Little agreement on commission GMO proposal
ANDREW WILLIS 27.09.2010 @ 20:03 CET
EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - European Union member states have concluded their first debate on a recent European Commission proposal to allow differentiated GMO cultivation, with most capitals raising serious objections. Belgian minister for agriculture Sabine Laruelle, whose country currently holds the EU's rotating presidency, acknowledged the considerable opposition after she met with EU counterparts in Brussels on Monday (27 September).I don't think we can expect a compromise over the next couple of months, she told journalists at a new conference. A great deal more will have to be done.Germany, France and several other member states are concerned that the commission's proposal could result in a fragmentation of the EU's internal market, as well as run into opposition from the World Trade Organisation. Italy and pro-GMO Spain also reportedly raised concerns over the proposal, citing their opposition to the renationalising of an EU common policy, while anti-GMO Austria, Hungary and Greece gave it support.Announced in July, the commission plan says environmental and health considerations on whether to approve the cultivation of a certain GMO-crop should remain at EU level, but adds that member states should subsequently be allowed to ban an EU-authorised product at national level using other criteria.
These could be socio-economic in nature, or following a referendum, although details remain unclear. An ad-hoc group composed of member state officials has been set up to study the issue. Pro-GMO Netherlands is among the list of EU countries supporting the commission's blueprint, seeing it as a means to unblock years of deadlock in the area.Once GMO-crops have been assessed as safe for people, animals, and the environment, we should give our farmers a real choice and a chance to compete globally, said Dutch minister of agriculture Gerda Verburg on Monday.GMO products remain unpopular with many EU citizens however, frequently being referred to as Frankenstein Foods.A new procedure under the EU's Lisbon Treaty allows European citizens to request Brussels to look into a particular area once one million signatures have been collected on a petition, with a call for a GMO ban nearing this figure.European commissioner for consumer affairs John Dalli defended the proposal on Monday, saying it would allow differing levels of GMO cultivation across the bloc but would not hamper trade in GMO products.It does not undermine the internal market and is not in contradiction with WTO rules. On the contrary, legal experts say it is the current status which is problematic with the WTO, he said.Many environmental NGOs are also unhappy with the proposal however, saying member states that chose to implement a ban at national level under the proposal would be vulnerable to legal challenges.EU countries shouldn't be duped into accepting the proposal as it stands and taking the pressure off the commission to improve crop safety and prevent GM contamination,said Greenpeace EU agriculture policy director Marco Contiero.

Diplomatic Tide Turns Against Abbas as He Freezes Talks
by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu SEPT 28,10
The constantly changing sands in the Middle East have left Abbas roasting under diplomatic heat as he faces blame for freezing talks with Israel.He has frozen discussions with Israel while giving Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu five days to reinstate the building freeze on Jewish homes in Judea and Samaria. If Israel does not comply, Abbas said he will turn to the Arab League to consider the next step.
However, Prime Minister Netanyahu apparently has checked Abbas in what has become a diplomatic game of chess.U.S. Middle East envoy George Mitchell hurriedly returns to Israel Tuesday in a frantic attempt to save the Obama administration’s diplomatic momentum effort from falling into a ditch that seems to get deeper by the day.Mitchell and U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have been hoping to expand a proposed Palestinian Authority-Israeli agreement to a regional peace accord. Mitchell last week visited Lebanon and Syria, which also hosts the headquarters of the Hamas terrorist organization.The U.S. envoy said that Syria and Lebanon, where Damascus and the Hizbullah terrorist party increasingly influence the country’s affairs, are keys to a regional peace.American expectations that PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas and Prime Minister Netanyahu would find a way to overcome PA demands for a building freeze are fizzling out. The administration publicly said it was disappointed that Israel did not extend the 10-month moratorium on building, a move that was made under American pressure to satisfy Abbas’ condition for direct talks.
Despite the verbal criticism of Israel by the United States as well as the European Union and the United Nations, Abbas is increasingly viewed by media and analysts as the reason for the failure to sit down with Israel.Prime Minister Netanyahu has “managed to leave the dead cat [of prospective blame] at the doorstep of both the Obama administration and Mahmoud Abbas, Aaron David Miller, a former U.S. peace negotiator, told Politico’s Ben Smith.Last summer, Israel owned the dead cat, Smith wrote. Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton made plain their view that Netanyahu’s failure to stop all settlement construction on the West Bank was the obstacle to resumed talks, and after an ill-timed construction announcement, Clinton’s office released details of the unusual 43-minute tongue lashing she delivered to the Israelis.There are people on both sides who have no confidence [in the peace process] and so the name of the game is who gets blamed, pro-PA think tank expert Hussein Ibish told Smith. [That] is why the Palestinians can say a million times that they’ll walk out — but they can’t.Any doubt about support for Israel from Washington was removed on Monday when 87 senators—almost the entire U.S. Senate—signed a letter that effectively praised Prime Minister Netanyahu and blamed Abbes for the latest impasse.(IsraelNationalNews.com)
US envoy to try to salvage Mideast peace talks By AMY TEIBEL, Associated Press Writer – Tue Sep 28, 7:13 am ET
JERUSALEM – Washington's special Mideast envoy, using a slim lifeline from the Palestinians, rushed to the region on Tuesday on an emergency mission to keep peace talks from collapsing just weeks after they began.Israel's decision to resume new West Bank settlement construction after a 10-month moratorium expired on midnight Sunday has provoked Palestinian threats to walk out of the talks. It has also caused new friction between Israel and its powerful U.S. patron, which said it was disappointed with Israel's refusal to relent.On Monday night, Washington dispatched special envoy George Mitchell to the region to try to bridge gaps that Palestinian, Israel and American officials failed to close in a frenetic round of meetings in the U.S. last week.Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas gave U.S. mediation more time to work when he announced Monday he wouldn't decide whether to abandon the talks before consulting senior Arab officials in Cairo next week. An Arab League official has told The Associated Press that Arab foreign ministers were expected to endorse whatever position Abbas took.A senior Palestinian official said the Palestine Liberation Organization's 18-member decision-making body would meet Wednesday or Thursday to formulate a position before Abbas meets with the League envoys. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he was discussing internal Palestinian deliberations.
State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley praised Abbas for not immediately walking out of the talks and chided Israel for resisting international pressure to halt new housing starts in the West Bank — territory that Palestinians claim as part of their future state.We are disappointed but we remain focused on our long-term objective and will be talking to the parties about the implications of the Israeli decision, Crowley said Monday, adding that Mitchell would sort through with the parties where we go from here.U.N. chief Ban Ki-moon and senior European officials have also criticized Israel's decision.In Paris on Tuesday, the Palestinian leader urged Israel to halt new West Bank settlement construction as long as Mideast peace talks continue, saying he feared the two sides might miss a historic opportunity if Israel refuses to renew a just-expired freeze on the building.If settlement stops, we will continue the negotiations. If not, we will stop, Abbas said. We cannot destroy this hope (for peace) with things that are secondary, like settlements,he said.Palestinian leaders, he added, hope Israel will halt settlement building as long as there are negotiations.Immediately after the restrictions expired, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appealed to Abbas to keep negotiating. Netanyahu has indicated he would be prepared to limit new building, but has refused to agree to a complete halt.Netanyahu, a settlement champion who agreed under duress to impose the moratorium in late November, has told the U.S. that he cannot extend it because his partners in Israel's pro-settlement government oppose such a move. But he has indicated he would be willing to impose some limitations on construction.
Israeli defense officials have suggested there might be an undeclared freeze, with Defense Minister Ehud Barak quietly exercising his authority to quash any new building projects.Abbas told the French radio that Netanyahu should know that peace is more important than settlements.In Gaza violence late Monday, three Palestinian militants were killed in a clash with Israeli soldiers, both sides said. The Israelis said their forces fired at militants near the border of central Gaza as they were about to launch rockets at Israel. A small, al-Qaida-inspired group claimed responsibility on Tuesday.Associated Press Writers Jamey Keaten in Paris and Matthew Lee in Washington contributed to this report.

Netanyahu’s Nemesis Rahm Emanuel On Way Out of White House
by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu SEPT 28,10
U.S. President Barack Obama soon may hang the help wanted sign outside the door of his Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel, who reportedly will step down. Emanuel once was allegedly called a self-hating Jew by Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, who denied the report.Sources said that Emanuel, whose father was an underground fighter against the British Mandate before Israel was re-established as a country in 1948, has arguably landed President Obama in hot water for pushing policies that squeezed the Israeli coalition led by Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu.Emanuel is expected to announce on Friday whether he will run for mayor of Chicago, in President Obama’s home state. Regardless of his decision, reports have been floating for months that he has caused problems for the president, particularly among Jewish donors.To say I don’t sleep easily with the current administration’s relationship to Israel would be an understatement,billionaire Israeli native and Obama supporter Chaim Saban said earlier this year. He added that when he expressed his views to the White House, Emanuel said his own views were more hawkish than 50 percent of Israelis. The figure is highly doubtful considering the makeup of Israel's Knesset and poll results, and reflects the insularity of President Obama’s appointments.
Politco.com reported that President Obama is likely to replace him with one of his “insiders’ rather than take the risk of making a radical change in his staff. If Emanuel quits, a replacement probably will not be named until after the mid-term Congressional elections in November. Polls so far point to a likely vote revolt against President Obama’s Democratic party.Another help wanted sign may be hung out to replace White House senior advisor David Axelrod, another Jew in President Obama’s inner circle. He said this week that he probably will leave office in several months, as previously planned.A third departure may include General (ret.) James Jones, the U.S. national security advisor. Both Jones and Emanuel are far from being friends of the Netanyahu government. The IDF privately was critical of him when he served as the Middle East military envoy in Judea and Samaria.President Obama won cheers for appointing a Jew as White House Chief of Staff, but the applause rapidly became mixed with suspicion and trepidation after Emanuel’s background became known. He took pride in choreographing the handshake on the White lawn between then-President Bill Clinton, Palestinian Authority chairman Yasser Arafat and former Prime Minister Yitzchak Rabin.Emanuel was quoted later as saying he that he wanted to see similar diplomatic maneuvers. He is widely viewed as having steered President Obama towards stiff opposition to a Jewish presence in areas of Jerusalem claimed by the Palestinian Authority as well as all of Judea and Samaria.
Several months ago, Emanuel brought his son to Israel for a Bar Mitzvah but avoided visiting the Western Wall, a common venue for American Bar Mitzvahs. His presence there would have been viewed by the Palestinian Authority as recognition of Israeli sovereignty over the holy site, adjacent to the Temple Mount.Emanuel’s frequent use of rude language vaulted him into the headlines at the same time he had intensified the powers of Chief of Staff, acting as a liaison with Congress as well as trying to stifle criticism of his boss.With domestic issues dominating the concerns of America voters, Emanuel's successor, whoever he is, is expected to be less active in Middle East affairs.(IsraelNationalNews.com)
Who Tried to Fly Land Mines from Canada to Israel?
by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu SEPT 28,10
El Al foiled an attempt to fly land mines from Canada to Israel, but no one yet knows who tried to send them or why.Security guards at El Al’s terminal in Toronto’s Pearson International Airport refused to let the cargo on board before inspection. It had arrived without advance notice.All cargo flown on El Al undergoes a thorough check according to our security regulations,” El Al officials stated, without commenting on the shipment. However, after the sender of the cargo was located, El Al was able to determine that the land mines were not part of a terrorist attack, but meant for training an international force stationed in the Sinai.Last week, a Pakistan International Airlines flight from Toronto to Karachi landed in Sweden after Canadian police received two phone calls from an anonymous woman that a passenger on the flight had explosives.Officials in Sweden temporarily held one man before releasing him, after they found no explosives on him or the plane.(Israel NationalNews.com)

LA bakes in record heatwave
– Mon Sep 27, 7:07 pm ET
LOS ANGELES (AFP) – Los Angeles baked in record temperatures on Monday, bringing sweltering scenes to the West Coast metropolis nearly a month after the end of the main August heat.As firefighters remained on alert in tinderbox conditions around the outskirts of the city, temperatures hit 113 degrees Fahrenheit (45 degrees Celsius) in downtown, the highest since records began in 1877.Streets remained unusually empty, as Angelinos sought the shelter of air-conditioned shops, offices and homes.But in the city center the heatwave, which began at the weekend and is set to last days more, sent some locals frolicking in a walk-through fountain just next to Hollywood's famous Kodak theatre, home of the Oscars.There was a spike around noon that bumped temperatures up, said Stuart Seto of the National Weather Service, after the old record of 112 degrees, set on June 26, 1990, was beaten shortly after midday.
Los Angeles firefighters have been on high alert for days for wildfires which can take hold rapidly in the brush and dry woodlands which surround the city.Although temperatures were high Monday, there was little wind -- giving some relief that any blaze would not spread so easily.The heatwave comes after a cooler-than-usual summer for Los Angeles, which typically enjoys 300 days of sun a year, albeit with summer temperatures more typically in the 70s and 80s.

Heavy rains spark big floods over Central America
– Mon Sep 27, 1:41 am ET
MEXICO CITY (AFP) – The remnants of Tropical Storm Matthew have dumped torrential rains on southern Mexico and much of Central America, killing at least four people as it let loose floods and mudslides across the water-logged region.In El Salvador, a 32-year-old man was killed when he was swept away by a swollen river, and another person was missing, authorities said.In Mexico's southern Chiapas state, three Tzeltal Indians, two of them children, perished when their house collapsed during a heavy rainstorm.It happened late Sunday, when flood waters swept away a house and its three occupants, said Chilon town official Julian Hernandez.Chiapas Civil Protection director Luis Manuel Garcia said Matthew caused heavy damage across the state.There are mudslides in eight municipalities... The worst damage is in Yajalon town, where 215 homes have been affected and around 1,000 families have moved to shelters, he said.Five states in southern and eastern Mexico were under storm alerts due to the heavy rains, including Veracruz, still suffering from Hurricane Karl earlier this month.At 1500 GMT the center of the remnant low pressure area was moving westward over far southern Mexico and "could become nearly stationary by tonight, the Miami-based National Hurricane Center said.
Destructive winds were no longer the concern; authorities were on red alert for more flooding and mudslides in a mountainous region that is in the midst of one of the most intense rainy seasons in the past 60 years.In a sign of increasing danger for Mexico and Guatemala, the NHC raised its forecast for rainfall as the weather system slowed its forward crawl over the region.The system is expected to produce total rain accumulations of 25-50 centimeters (10 to 20 inches) from far southern Mexico into northern portions of Central America with isolated maximum amounts of 76 centimeters (30 inches) possible, the Miami-based NHC warned.These rains could produce life-threatening flash floods and mudslides,it stressed.Thousands in rural Central America live close to rivers likely to burst their banks, because they depend on them for water and farming.Karl left 14 people dead in Veracruz earlier this month, and an estimated 400,000 people homeless.Mexico has said it is being lashed by the wettest rainy season on record.Flooding and landslides have killed more than 300 people in Central America, left tens of thousands homeless and caused billions of dollars in damage in recent months, officials said.
Mexican governor: hundreds feared dead in slide By IXTLI MARTINEZ, Associated Press Writer - SEPT 28,10
OAXACA, Mexico – A hillside collapsed on a rural Mexican community on Tuesday and the region's governor said hundreds of people are feared dead.Oaxaca state Gov. Ulises Ruiz told the Televisa television network that the early morning landslide in the town Santa Maria de Tlahuitoltepec buried 100 to 300 houses and speculated that 500 to 1,000 people could be dead.Donato Vargas, an official in Santa Maria de Tlahuitoltepec reached by a satellite telephone, said 500 people were missing and that 300 homes were buried.We were all sleeping and all I heard was a loud noise and when I left the house I saw that the hill had fallen, Vargas said.He said he called the Mexican army and state officials for help.It has been difficult informing authorities because the road are very bad and there isn't a good signal for our phone, Vargas said shortly before the call dropped.Ruiz said the landslide followed days of rain in the Sierra de Juarez region.Rescuers were flying in from Mexico City and emergency personnel have been sent to the town about 50 miles (80 kilometers) east of Oaxaca city and 130 miles (220 kilometers) from Mexico City.There has been lots of rain, rivers have overflowed and we're having a hard time reaching the area because there are landslides on the roads, he said.Luis Marin, an official with Oaxaca state's civil protection department, said rescue crews had yet to reach the area.
Germany opposed to extending euro rescue fund GEIR MOULSON, Associated Press Writer - SEPT 28,10
BERLIN – The huge rescue fund that saved the euro this year should not be extended beyond 2013, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said Tuesday, as she called instead for tougher consequences for overspending by member states in the currency bloc.Merkel's comments came as haggling over changes to the rules that underpin the euro heats up. On Wednesday, EU Monetary Affairs Commissioner Olli Rehn plans to issue a proposal for member states to be punished early for spending their way into trouble.Germany has led the push for tougher rules to prevent a repeat of the debt crisis that started in Greece and then rippled across Europe.That forced governments and the International Monetary Fund to put together a euro750 billion ($1 trillion) safety net for indebted governments, euro440 billion of that from European countries. The fund can issue bailouts until June 2013.I say here very clearly that there will not be an extension of the aid fund, rather we need treaty changes in Europe, Merkel said at a German industry group's conference in Berlin.Those changes should make clear that countries which do not keep to the stability and growth pact can be subjected to different procedures than the ones we have today,she said.She did not elaborate, but added that with Germany, there will not be a simple extension of such (rescue) funds as we now have.Rehn said last week that, once it has gathered experience with the current rescue fund, the European Commission may next year come up with proposals for what kind of a permanent mechanism for crisis resolution we should build when the facility expires.
Under the European Union's stability and growth pact, governments are supposed to keep their budget deficits to a maximum 3 percent of gross domestic product.On Monday, France rejected any idea of punishing EU nations with near-automatic sanctions if they fail to keep their debt and budget deficits within limits — putting Paris at odds with Germany and the European Central Bank.Rehn insisted sanctions decisions could only be undone by a large majority of member states — but France insists that a simple majority should suffice to decide on sanctions.Merkel said Tuesday she had been right to insist that countries put their budgets in order as a condition for this year's rescue packages.Europe must take great care that the countries which show weaknesses today become stronger,she said.
Greece checks NKorea cargo, in arms probe By ELENA BECATOROS, Associated Press Writer - SEPT 28,10
ATHENS, Greece – A government official in Greece says authorities are inspecting a cargo ship suspected of carrying weapon parts from North Korea to Syria.The official says inspectors on Tuesday searched freight containers looking for possible dual use materials that would violate a United Nations arms embargo on North Korea.The official gave no other details and asked not to be named, pending a formal announcement on the results of the inspection.Greek state-run media says the inspection is taking place at the country's main port of Piraeus, near Athens.

Brazil warns of world currency war: report
– Tue Sep 28, 5:28 am ET
LONDON (AFP) – The world is in the grip of a currency war, with leading nations using devaluation to solve economic problems, Brazilian Finance Minister Guido Mantega has warned in remarks reported from Sao Paulo.We're in the midst of an international currency war, a general weakening of currency, he said in remarks reported by the Financial Times newspaper.This threatens us because it takes away our competitiveness.Japan, South Korea and Taiwan have intervened recently to pull down the value of their currencies, the newspaper noted, and the dollar has fallen by about 25 percent so far this year against the Brazilian real. Such a fall increases the price of Brazilian exports on the US market.The remarks are set against a background of increasing tension notably between the United States and China over the value of the yuan.The United States has complained for years that China has held down artificially the value of its currency, preventing it from rising to reflect the strength of China's foreign exchange earnings from exporting, notably to the US market.This came to a head at the end of last week while the UN General Assembly meeting was being held when China's Premier Wen Jiabao told a business forum in New York that voiced fears of social unrest if Beijing bowed to US pressure.
If the (yuan) appreciates by 20 to 40 percent according to requests of the US government, we do not know how many Chinese companies will go bankrupt and how many Chinese workers will be laid off and how many rural workers will go back to their homes and there will be major turbulence in Chinese society, he sid.In recent weeks, sentiment has grown on financial markets that the United States, which has already hinted at using World Trade Organization rules to retaliate, may see a fall of the dollar as a way of increasing pressure.Meanwhile, there is strong debate in the United States over whether a new stimulus package would be an appropriate way to give the economy a new boost. New stimulus might also weaken the dollar, some analysts say.The mismatch between savings and external surpluses built up by some countries and the external deficits in some advanced countries, mainly the United States, together with exchange rates pegged to the dollar, are widely regarded as important causal factors behind the recent global economic crisis.Among the basic lessons of the Great Depression in the 1930s were that protectionism and so-called competitive devaluations make matters worse all round. At the height of the recent crisis, governments were at pains to express rejection of protectionism.
Lawmaker eyes late-year Senate vote on China yuan
SEPT 28,10
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The Senate is unlikely to vote on legislation to pressure China to raise the value of its currency until after the November 2 congressional elections, a Democratic senator said on Tuesday.Senator Sherrod Brown told reporters he saw strong bipartisan support for currency legislation the House of Representatives is to vote on this week. However, it is unlikely the Senate will vote on the bill before lawmakers recess in coming days to go home to campaign, he said.Many members of Congress believe China deliberately undervalues its currency by as much as 25 percent to 40 percent to give its companies an unfair price advantage.
The House bill deals with that issue by directing the Commerce Department to treat undervalued currencies as an export subsidy.That opens the door for U.S. companies to seek countervailing duties to offset China's currency advantage. However, companies must prove they have been injured, or are threatened with serious injury, by competing imports from China to win the relief.I think a majority of senators, including some number of Republicans, understand that China is gaming the currency system and that causes an imbalance trade that we need to fix, Brown, a Senate Banking Committee member, told reporters.The House bill, unlike many other pieces of legislation, is a short, readable bill, that is easy to comprehend, Brown said. He said he thought President Barack Obama would think twice about vetoing the legislation if it reached his desk.Obama and his advisers understand the United States will never be able to deal with its $20 billion-a-month trade deficit with China without addressing the currency issue, Brown said after a speech on how to revitalize U.S. manufacturing.House Democratic leader Steny Hoyer told the same audience lawmakers had worked with the Obama administration to ensure that the currency bill was consistent with World Trade Organization rules.We worked to make sure -- the administration and I and others wanted to make sure -- ... that it is WTO compliant. It is not an issue of closing our borders. It is an issue of making the playing field level and fair, Hoyer said.By illegally keeping the value of its currency low, China is able to sell its goods in the United States at an artificially low price, which helps put American manufacturers out of work.
The House will vote on the bill on Wednesday, Hoyer told reporters.A spokeswoman for the U.S. Trade Representative's office declined to say whether the Obama administration thought the bill was consistent with WTO rules.We do not typically comment publicly on the WTO-consistency of pending legislation,she said.(Reporting by Doug Palmer; editing by Mohammad Zargham)
Petrobras becomes third biggest oil firm
– Mon Sep 27, 7:26 pm ET
SAO PAULO (AFP) – Brazil's state-run Petrobras became the world's third-biggest oil firm by market capitalization Monday as it completed a record share issue expected to bring in around 70 billion dollars.After selling the stock on the New York stock exchange from last Friday, in the form of American Depository Receipts, the company began also selling the shares Monday on the Sao Paulo stock exchange.Those shares rose 1.93 percent to 30.23 reals by the end of trading -- higher than the 29.65 reals the new shares were priced at for trading, showing strong demand.The offering has made Petrobras the third largest oil company in the world after US-based ExxonMobil and PetroChina.Brokers, though, said a long-term uncertainty, a negative pressure lingered over the shares because of doubts over investors' returns.The government's increase in its stake in Petrobras, from 40 percent to 48 percent, also generated concerns.The degree of government intervention in decisions during the whole (capitalization) process was too high for a publicly listed company, said Miriam Leitao, an economic columnist for the newspaper O Globo.She noted that Petrobras had lost a quarter of its value over this year because of that preoccupation.Small investors are in the hands of the government, Fabio Knczuk, an economics professor at the University of Sao Paulo, told AFP.
Petrobras is to use the proceeds from the share sale to explore the offshore oil fields, which are so big they could make Brazil a major exporter.The company wants to boost capital expenditure over the next five years to 224 billion dollars to exploit the fresh reserves.Petrobras estimates the so-called subsalt fields could more than triple its existing proven oil reserves of 14 billion barrels.

Nigeria: Flood ruins crops as food remains scarce By JON GAMBRELL, Associated Press Writer – Mon Sep 27, 11:54 pm ET
GUDINCHIN, Nigeria – After water nearly overtook his village in northern Nigeria, Ali Gudinchin jumped into the rushing flood with a knife, cutting away ears of corn from stalks barely rising above the muddy surface.He ended up with only three sacks worth of food, compared to the 50-odd bags of grains and vegetables he typically grows during the arid region's brief fertile season.The insects were biting me as I cut, said Gudinchin, a 50-year-old man who uses his village's name as his surname, which is customary.It was pain in addition to the pain of losing the crop.Flood waters that rushed through his home in rural Jigawa state now cover about 34 square miles (55 square kilometers) of farmland there. As the bright sun begins to slowly dry the fields, all the farmers have are ruined stalks and dying plants — the latest strain on food in a region where other nearby countries face serious shortages.The floods have come at the worst possible time — just before harvest — when it is too late for farmers to replant their fields of millet, sorghum and cowpea, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.In northern Nigeria, unusually heavy seasonal rains sent water surging through overflowing rivers. A dam failed in the northern state of Sokoto, flooding out rural pasturelands there and killing about 40 people, according to local media reports.
In Jigawa, local officials blame the inundation on officials opening two dams at reservoirs in neighboring Kano state. Typically, the water released yearly from the dams flows into farm fields across the region known as the Sahel, a band of semi-arid land stretching across Africa south of the Sahara. The waters irrigated the crops of Jigawa, a state home to more than 4 million people.This time, a huge wave of water from the reservoirs raced through already saturated stream and creek beds, quickly topping over Jigawa state's simple earthen levees, said Umar Kyari, a spokesman for Gov. Sule Lamido.About 2 million people — about half of the state's population — have been displaced or affected by the flooding that began two weeks ago, he said.The village of Gudinchin — home to a few hundred people once surrounded by fields of tomatoes, corn, rice and millet — is now cut off from the rest of Jigawa, an island in the midst of murky, fast-moving water ripe with unprocessed sewage. Besides swimming, the only way across comes from two, low-riding wooden canoes donated by the government.There, the dirt-walled granary quickly became a pile of muddy debris when the waters rushed in one night. Villagers used its walls to build an earthen levee against the rushing water. The millet able to be eaten can now be lifted up in only two handfuls.Garba Gudinchin, 55, said he and others live in fear that their dam won't hold long enough to allow the sun to burn away the remaining water. But beyond that, nearly all the village's crops now sit in ruin.I cannot tell you the figure because it is big, he said in the local Hausa language.
Nigeria, Africa's most populous country, relies on the crop from its northern states to feed the mouths of those in its oil-rich and commerce-driven south.Kyari, the governor's spokesman, warned the loss of crops would drive up food prices in the country, where most earn less than $1 a day. Kyari also estimates state ranchers lost millions of dollars worth of cattle in the flooding.The nation's farmers also supply other West African nations with their crops, countries already facing droughts and food shortages.In neighboring Niger, international aid experts warn the country faces the worst hunger crisis in its history following a prolonged drought and poor growing season last year. One of the poorest countries in Africa, Niger now has more than 7 million people — almost 50 percent of the population — suffering from a lack of food, officials say.Gautam Chatterjee, head of mission in Nigeria for Medecins Sans Frontieres, also known as Doctors without Borders, said the flooding could affect the region for the next two to three months. In the longer term, this means an increase in food insecurity and an increase in malnutrition, especially for children under 5, Chatterjee said. For now, villagers in Gudinchin who lost their homes, like Mohammed Auwal, live with their neighbors. Flood waters washed away his home and those of his immediate family. His crops, which once stood out against the gray dirt of the farm fields nearby, can no longer be seen.It's all destroyed, Auwal said.Associated Press Writer Artis Henderson in Dakar, Senegal, contributed to this report.
North Korean leader makes his son a 4-star general By HYUNG-JIN KIM, Associated Press Writer - SEPT 28,10
SEOUL, South Korea – Kim Jong Il made his mysterious youngest son a four-star general in a promotion seen Tuesday as the first step toward his ascent as the next leader of North Korea — extending the family dynasty in the reclusive totalitarian country to a third generation.The announcement was published in state media hours before a historic Workers' Party meeting where the 68-year-old Kim, who apparently is in deteriorating health, was expected to bestow a party title on his son, Kim Jong Un, who is in his 20s.The North Korean capital of Pyongyang was decorated with banners and placards celebrating the country's biggest political gathering in 30 years. It was at a similar meeting in 1980 where state media revealed that Kim Jong Il was in line to succeed his father, Kim Il Sung, the country's founder who died in 1994.At Tuesday's meeting, Kim Jong Il was re-elected to the party's top position of general secretary. State media gave no further details on what was discussed or decided. Footage shot by broadcaster APTN showed buses carrying party delegates leaving Pyongyang, a sign the meeting may have ended.
The moves come at a time of tension on the Korean peninsula.Earlier this year, a South Korean naval warship sank near the maritime border shared by the two Koreas, which have remained in a state of war since their three-year conflict ended in a truce in 1953. Seoul and Washington, which maintains 28,500 troops in South Korea, blame Pyongyang for torpedoing the ship. Pyongyang denies responsibility and has warned that any punishment would mean war.North Korea also remains at odds with international powers over its nuclear program, and was slapped with widespread U.N. sanctions last year after conducting a prohibited long-range rocket test and detonating a nuclear device. Pyongyang is believed to have enough weaponized plutonium to build a half-dozen nuclear bombs.The news of the son's promotion was the North Korean media's first mention of Kim Jong Un, who has remained so well-hidden from the outside world that not even his face or exact age can be confirmed. He is believed to be 27, and is said to have been schooled in Switzerland and educated at Kim Il Sung Military University in Pyongyang.Analysts saw it as confirmation he is slated to become North Korea's next leader.Kim Jong Un's promotion is the starting point for his formal succession to power,said Kim Yong-hyun, a North Korea expert at Dongguk University in Seoul.
It's clearly the biggest news we've had from North Korea since the death of Kim Il Sung, said Peter Beck, a Council on Foreign Relations-Hitachi research fellow at Keio University in Tokyo.I think it clearly demonstrates that Kim Jong Il is committed to maintaining control of the country within his family, he said.The appointment also appears aimed at putting the son at the helm of his father's songun, or military-first, policy. He is expected to take up other top military jobs such as commander of the 1.2 million-member military, analyst Cheong Seong-chang of the private Sejong Institute think tank said.The secrecy surrounding the succession process is typical of North Korea, and reminiscent of Kim Jong Il's own rise to power.Kim Jong Il was 31 when he won the No. 2 post in the ruling Workers' Party in 1973, an appointment seen as a key step in the path to succeeding his father.The following year, Kim was formally tapped as the future leader but state media did not reveal that to the outside world until the landmark 1980 convention, the last big political meeting in North Korea.He took over in 1994 after Kim Il Sung died of heart failure in what was communism's first hereditary succession.Who will become the North's next leader is being closely watched in other nations.
In Tokyo, Foreign Minister Seiji Maehara said Japan's goal to end Pyongyang's nuclear program remains the same whatever change is made in North Korea's leadership. U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Kurt M. Campbell said Washington is watching developments carefully for clues to North Korea's nuclear policy. In Seoul, South Korea's ruling Grand National Party denounced the North's succession process, calling it anachronistic.It's not known what kind of party position Kim Jong Un might be granted. Some predict he'll win the same post his father took 37 years ago: party secretary authorized to supervise party members and appoint top party, government and military officials. However, the younger Kim may not have the benefit of 20 years of training like his father.Kim Jong Il, said to have diabetes and a kidney ailment, reportedly had a stroke in August 2008, sparking fears about instability and a possible power struggle in the nuclear-armed country if he were to die without anointing a successor.Kim has two other sons but the youngest is said to be his favorite.However, with Kim Jong Un still politically inexperienced, Kim Jong Il may tap his sister to oversee an eventually transfer of power, experts say. Sister Kim Kyong Hui, 64, was among six people promoted to general along with Kim Jong Un, and her name was listed ahead of Kim Jong Un's in the Korean Central News Agency report.There is a possibility that she could play the role of a coordinator to make sure the power succession goes smoothly, analyst Cheong said.She and her husband, Jang Song Thaek, appointed a vice chairman of the all-powerful National Defense Commission in June, also are expected to win key political appointments that would allow them to act as advisers to the young Kim during his rise to power. The key here is bloodline, Ha Tae-keung, chief of Open Radio for North Korea, a Seoul-based radio station specializing in North Korean affairs, told reporters in Seoul. Both Jang and his wife will never rule North Korea as Jong Un's regents, and will only function as advisers.In a brief announcement Tuesday, a North Korean news reader said crucial developments were taking place at the political meeting in Pyongyang and that Kim Jong Il was re-elected to the party's top position of general secretary to delegates' cheers of Hurrah.His re-election is an expression of absolute support and trust of all the party members, the servicepersons and the people in Kim Jong Il, KCNA said, calling it a historic event.The convention, initially set for early September, appears to have been delayed by several weeks amid speculation that Kim's health or damage from flooding and typhoons may have forced the postponement.This meeting of the delegates is an important occasion for further strengthening the solidarity of our army, our party, and our people, who are rallying behind the great Gen. Kim Jong Il, Kim Chang Gyong, an assistant professor at North Korea's Academy of Social Sciences, told broadcaster APTN.Associated Press writers Kelly Olsen, Kwang-tae Kim, Jean H. Lee and Sangwon Yoon in Seoul and Mari Yamaguchi in Tokyo contributed to this report.
Canada vows to protect recovery but end stimulus

MONTREAL (Reuters) – Canada's government said on Monday it would take action as needed to protect the shaky economic recovery, but resisted pressure to prolong stimulus spending as its focus turns to tackling its budget deficit.Finance Minister Jim Flaherty said the Conservative federal government has committed 98 percent of the $22 billion it had planned for the second year of its C$48 billion economic stimulus package, which was aimed at softening the blow of the recession that ended late last year.But as the recovery loses steam and economists predict a slight economic contraction in July, the first monthly contraction in almost a year, the minority government of Prime Minister Stephen Harper has come under pressure to keep the stimulus tap running beyond the March 2011 end of the program.Flaherty said the Canadian economy has recovered all the jobs lost during the recession and output has also returned to pre-recession levels. But he conceded it is a very uncertain time for the global economy.That's why the next few months are so critical for our country as this government continues our efforts to create jobs, to boost investment and to make our nation even more competitive .... he told reporters in Montreal.In the short term, the government is focused on finishing the job of implementing the economic action plan. We will also continue to monitor economic development closely and will take action as necessary to protect the economic recovery, he told reporters in Montreal.
Flaherty noted signs the private sector would soon replace the government in stimulating growth.We've seen this year some increases in the investment in machinery and equipment by Canadian business, which is quite encouraging in terms of future private-sector demand, he said.Canada's economy has fared better than that of the United States and some other major economies due to strong consumer spending and a robust housing market.The Bank of Canada became the first central bank in the Group of Seven advanced economies to raise interest rates following the global financial crisis and has now hiked rates three times since June. In contrast, the U.S. Federal Reserve is considering possibly taking further action to boost the economy there.In its report on Monday on the status of the stimulus funds, Ottawa said it has committed federal money to 23,000 projects. It said work on 97 percent of them has begun or has been completed.
OPPOSITION ATTACKS
But the main opposition party, the Liberals, kept up their attacks on Harper's economic management on Monday. They keep talking about the fact that Canada has replaced jobs. That's great ... But the reality is that the jobs that came back are more temporary, and part time and more insecure than the jobs we lost, said Liberal Party leader Michael Ignatieff.Harper needs the support of at least one of the three opposition parties to stay in power. Polls show his Conservatives have a slight lead over his rivals in popular support, not enough to win a majority.Flaherty did show some wiggle room on a Liberal demand that the government show more flexibility on its March 2011 cut-off date for finishing municipal infrastructure projects so that municipalities can get federal cash for them.Municipal and provincial governments are expected to have contributed C$7 billion to the stimulus program in each of its two years, but they could get hit with an additional C$500 million bill if projects are not finished on time, the Parliamentary Budget Officer has estimated.Flaherty said the government would be fair and reasonable about funding for projects that are nearly completed.Ottawa expects its 2009-10 budget deficit to be just over C$50 billion, or about 3.5 percent of gross domestic product. It aims to reduce the deficit to a marginal 0.1 percent of GDP by 2015, a feat the International Monetary Fund says it can achieve and which would give Canada the best fiscal standing in the G7.Ottawa will provide new growth and budget forecasts in its annual autumn fiscal update, which is usually presented to Parliament in late October.

Australia's first Muslim MP sworn in on Koran
Tue Sep 28, 6:21 am ET
SYDNEY (AFP) – The first Muslim elected to Australia's parliament was sworn in on Tuesday with his hand on his parents' Koran.Ed Husic, whose mother and father are Bosnian migrants, said it was an enormous privilege to serve in Canberra as he conceded that his unique place in Australian political history was something of a milestone.Given my background, there are some people taking a small slice of pride or happiness, he told The Australian newspaper.Husic, a former union boss who grew up in the western Sydney area he represents, won his place in the 150-seat House of Representatives in Canberra for the ruling Labor Party in August 21 polls.He was among the MPs sworn into Australia's 43rd parliament by the chief justice of the high court in Canberra on Tuesday.Muslims make up about 1.7 percent of Australia's heavily Christian population of 22 million.Husic was upfront about his religion when interviewed last month.If someone asks me are you Muslim I say yes. And then if someone says 'Well do you pray and go to a mosque and do all the other things that are associated with the faith?' I say no, he told ABC TV last month.I often get told that I describe myself as non-practising when in actual fact I don't go round saying that. Like I just say I'm Muslim.
Surveillance satellite in orbit after Calif launch
– Sun Sep 26, 11:28 pm ET
VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. – A new Space Based Surveillance satellite is orbiting Earth after a successful launch from Vandenberg Air Force Base on the central California coast.Diana Bell — a spokeswoman for the satellite's builder Boeing — said Sunday it was a picture-perfect launch on a beautiful Saturday night for the Minotaur 4 rocket carrying the satellite.Ball says the launch team was able to see the satellite for a long stretch on the warm, clear night.A pair of Los Angeles television stations said they received several calls from viewers asking about the fireball they'd seen in the sky.The satellite was designed to detect and monitor debris and space objects that could be a threat to national security and communications. It will be operated from Schriever Air Force Base, Colo.
Glenn Beck Channels Alex Jones to Sell Globalist Snake Oil

Glenn Beck is paid millions of dollars a year to deflect the righteous anger of the American people away from the bankster elite and focus it on a gaggle of washed-up 60s radicals. In the process, meaningful political action is harmlessly deflected away from the controllers and safely expended on a handful of useful idiot scapegoats funded by globalist foundations, so-called progressive PACs, and corporate labor unions.It is amazing how much Glenn Beck sounds like Alex Jones. The reason for this is because Beck’s people listen to the Alex Jones Show, take notes, and then relay what Jones talks about on any given day back to their master. An inside source at Fox News has verified this to be the case.Beck then takes what Jones talks about and refashions it into his trademark attack on irrelevant leftists, Marxists, admirers of Mao and Stalin, archaic SDS throwbacks — who were long ago infiltrated by the FBI — and academic socialist utopians who have about as much of a chance of taking power as an invasion of six-eyed aliens from Planet X do.In the video above, Beck talks about Cass Sunstein, police GPS and cell phone tracking, mobile x-ray scanners, government control of thermostats and big screen televisions, and Al Gore using the green agenda to turn children against their parents — topics Alex Jones talks about routinely on his radio and internet television program.
According to Beck, the green agenda and the police state grid are part of a diabolical progressive plan to create a communist dictatorship and march those of us who disagree off to re-education and death camps. In the past, Beck has used Stalin and Mao as examples of the sort of dictators the so-called progressives have in mind. Never mentioned is the fact the communist system Stalin exploited was installed in Russia by Wall Street. Beck has yet to mention that David Rockefeller believes Mao was an idea leader, never mind the 70 plus million people he systematically exterminated.To be fair, Beck has tied Goldman Sachs to the funding of the Chicago Climate Exchange and the cap and trade scheme. But he invariably brings it all full circle to the progressives, labor unions, Van Jones, ACORN, and Obama’s past as an Alinsky-inspired community organizer in Chicago.And for some reason Beck is silent about Fox News and its push for a green agenda.Beck often harps on the globalist George Soros, the Center for American Progress, John Podesta, and the Clinton-era Democrats while failing to mention the fact that Soros is a Bilderberger and a member of the Council on Foreign Relations along with his supposed polar opposite, the RINO Newt Gingrich, who has been a CFR member since 1990. He is also a prized member of the Bohemian Grove where he presumably gets down with the sort of homosexual male prostitutes that made Richard Nixon ill.Glenn Beck is not a patriot, but he plays one on television. He was hired to lead the sheep down the primrose path to the slaughter. Beck and Palin will steer the potentially dangerous Tea Party movement safely into the grandstands where they will be expected to follow the Republican platform of never-ending neocon wars and further encroachments on the Constitution and the Bill of Rights in the name of fighting terrorism manufactured by the CIA and perpetuated by the global intelligence monolith that serves the interests of Wall Street and the international bankster cartel.
Beck has his script. A substantial part of it was stolen from Alex Jones and the patriot movement. The final act was modified.In the end, as the globalists consolidate power, Glenn Beck and his controllers will have us chasing demons dredged up from the 1960s when the establishment — with the help of doctrinaire communists and the FBI — sold the SDS down the river and created the Weathermen from the ground up to demonize the antiwar movement. Now the remnants of the so-called New Left work for the globalist foundations. Old antiwar activists now pointlessly spend their time organizing marches and events that never seem to make a difference as the forever wars of the elite and their neocon faction march forward to claim more innocent victims under false pretense. Instead of effective activism, we get Code Pink prancing around like clowns for the television cameras.Get ready for Beck to pitch the RINO Tea Party in November. It was compromised early on when Republican operatives lifted the idea from Ron Paul and the Libertarians.The Glenn Beck Tea Party will reassert the ideology of the neocons. After the Democrats lose control of Congress in November and Obama is removed from office in 2012, you will not hear about Marxists, socialists, or the green meanies controlling your thermostat. Glenn Beck may even retire. It will be Mission Accomplished.Following November of 2012, the message will be about the Muslims again, especially white Muslims with European surnames. It will also be about patriots who will be portrayed as white supremacists, although without the same theatrics of Keith, Ed, and Rachel.
White House Science Czar Questioned The Right of Unborn Child to Live Inside Womb Jurriaan Maessen Infowars.com September 28, 2010
It is almost tiresome, but yet another writing by White House science czar John P. Holdren has surfaced- this time questioning the right of a potential human to live and grow in the womb of an actual woman. One could fill a medium-sized library with the writings by this Malthusian monster, denouncing humans and their right to live under the sun.Holdren believes that children during the early years after birth cannot yet be considered human beings.In 1972, John P. Holdren and his old buddy Paul Ehrlich wrote an article in The Canadian Nurse. The article is entitled Abortion and Morality. The subtitle reads as follows: Has a potential human the right to live inside an actual woman without her consent? The article goes on to list the well-known arguments for abortion, such as If abortion is needed by individuals and by society, is medically safe, and is not patently immoral, it is difficult to be sure exactly what is accomplished in subjecting the procedure to restrictive government scrutiny, Holdren and Ehrich say. Infants, the two continue, are entitled to due process and equal protection under the Fouteenth Amendment to the (US) Constitution, but fetuses are not. Because of this distinction, the relaxation of abortion laws could scarcely imperil the rights of infants or of elderly and otherwise dependant people. (…) Repeal of abortion laws is long overdue. These were not some isolated comment by two overzealous eco-fascists. In the 1973 publication Human Ecology: Problems and Solutions, Holdren and the Ehrlichs wrote quite candidly about their basic view on life, providing us with yet another peek at the decaying undergrowth out of which the Ecoscience document has emerged- proposing among other things a planetary regime to assume command of matters of life and death.
In chapter 8 of the Human Ecology-document, page 235, Holdren gives us his definition of human life:The fetus, Holdren writes, given the opportunity to develop properly before birth, and given the essential early socializing experiences and sufficient nourishing food during the crucial early years after birth, will ultimately develop into a human being.In other words, Holdren not only argues, as he did in 1972, that the unborn may not be considered human- he believes that children during the early years after birth, cannot yet be considered human beings. Given this presumption by Obama’s science adviser, it may not come as a surprise that he does not shy away from coercive abortion policies or other such measures to scale back the population. After all, if an infant cannot be construed as a human being, as Holdren argues, God-given rights do not apply to them nor does constitutional protection- and therefore they can be deemed as completely at the government’s mercy.
