IRAN HAS FISSILE MATERIALS FOR BOMB

FROM WND'S JERUSALEM BUREAU White House protests Jewish construction ,Closely monitors building in capital areas intimately tied to Judaism March 01, 2009 7:44 pm Eastern By Aaron Klein 2009 WorldNetDaily

JERUSALEM – President Obama's administration is carefully monitoring Jewish construction in eastern Jerusalem and has already protested to the highest levels of Israeli government about evidence found of housing expansion in those areas, according to informed Israeli officials speaking to WND. The officials, who spoke on condition that their names be withheld, said in recent weeks Obama's Mideast envoy, George Mitchell, oversaw the establishment of an apparatus based in the U.S. consulate in Jerusalem that closely monitors eastern Jerusalem neighborhoods, incorporating regular tours on a daily basis. Said one Israeli official: If the U.S. notices even one bulldozer on the region of E1, they immediately call us on the level of [Prime Minister Ehud] Olmert and ask Olmert what that bulldozer is doing there and whether we are planning anything in Jerusalem.The official was referring to the Jewish neighborhood of Maale Adumim, located in eastern Jerusalem. Olmert's government previously approved the expansion of the community, but new construction largely has been halted. The official said in recent meetings, Mitchell strongly protested Jewish construction in eastern Jerusalem. Mitchell also condemned the work of nationalist Jewish groups to purchase property in Jerusalem's Old City, including in areas intimately tied to Judaism. Israel recaptured eastern Jerusalem, including the Temple Mount – Judaism's holiest site – during the 1967 Six Day War.

The Palestinians, however, have claimed eastern Jerusalem as a future capital. About 244,000 Arabs live in Jerusalem, mostly in eastern neighborhoods, out of a total population of 724,000, the majority Jewish. A number of Arab-majority eastern Jerusalem neighborhoods widely regarded as slated for a Palestinian state include large numbers of Arabs – over 100,000 – who live on Jewish-owned land illegally. The Jewish National Fund, a U.S.-based nonprofit, owns hundred of acres of eastern Jerusalem land in which tens of thousands of Arabs illegally constructed homes the past few decades. Arabs are now the majority on the Jewish-owned land in question.

Israel warns of Gaza riposte on eve of aid meeting by Charly Wegman – Sun Mar 1, 10:13 pm ET

JERUSALEM, (AFP) – Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert vowed to respond severely to militant rocket strikes from Gaza on the eve of an international donor conference on funding the territory's reconstruction.Shortly after he spoke, Palestinian militants in the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip fired five rockets at southern Israel, according to the Israeli military, further straining a fragile ceasefire.One of the rockets exploded in the yard of a house in Sderot causing some damage. The other four blew up on waste land, the military said.Israel waged its deadly 22-day offensive with the stated aim of halting rocket and mortar fire by Gaza militants, a goal it signally failed to achieve.If the rocket fire from Gaza continues, we will hit back severely, so much so that the terrorist organisations will understand that Israel is not ready to resign itself to this, Olmert said at the weekly cabinet meeting.

Defence Minister Ehud Barak will give directions so that Israeli forces bring calm to southern Israel, the outgoing premier said.His comments came six weeks after the end of the Israel offensive, which left more than 1,300 Palestinians and 13 Israelis dead and destroyed homes and infrastructure throughout the Hamas-ruled territory.On Saturday, a volley of seven rockets fired from Gaza struck Israel.Egyptian efforts to broker a lasting truce in and around Gaza have so far come to nothing, with sporadic militant rocket attacks and Israeli air strikes continuing since the offensive ended on January 18.International donors are meeting in Egypt on Monday to discuss efforts to rebuild the impoverished Gaza Strip, which has been all but cut off from the outside world since Hamas seized control in June 2007.US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was in the Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheikh for the aid conference on her first visit to the Middle East since taking office.On the eve of the conference, former British prime minister Tony Blair made his first visit to Gaza since June 2007, when he became the Middle East Quartet envoy.The Middle East Quartet -- the European Union, Russia, the United Nations and the United States -- is to meet on the sidelines of the Sharm conference, with Israeli-Palestinian peace talks frozen since the Gaza war.The Quartet has refused to have dealings with Hamas, saying it must first renounce violence, recognise Israel and agree to abide by past peace agreements.

Mideast envoy Blair makes first Gaza visit by Joseph Krauss – Sun Mar 1, 11:30 am ET

GAZA CITY (AFP) – Britain's former prime minister Tony Blair paid a brief visit to a UN school in the Gaza Strip on Sunday on his first trip to the Hamas-run enclave since being appointed Middle East Quartet envoy.I wanted to come to hear for myself first-hand from people in Gaza, whose lives have been so badly impacted by the recent conflict, Blair said at the school in the northern town of Beit Hanun.These are the people who need to be the focus of all our efforts for peace and progress from now on, he said, adding that he would relay what he saw to an international conference on Gaza reconstruction in Egypt on Monday.The Middle East Quartet -- the European Union, Russia, the United Nations and the United States -- is due to meet on the sidelines of the conference in the Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheikh.Blair's visit coincided with a trip by British International Development Secretary Douglas Alexander, the first to Gaza by a British minister since the Islamists violently seized power in the enclave in June 2007.Alexander pledged 30 million pounds (43 million dollars, 34 million euros) toward rebuilding and called on Israel to open the borders of the territory where he said he was horrified by the scale of human suffering.Today I am making an allocation of 30 million pounds as a new statement of our commitment to do what we can as a British government to alleviate the suffering, Alexander said at a press conference.We want to see full and unfettered access both for aid and for aid workers here in Gaza.Blair met Gaza businesspeople, members of civil society and representatives of the water authority, as well as dropping in on an English class, British consulate officials said.But unlike recent high-profile visitors to Gaza -- including UN chief Ban Ki-moon and US Senator John Kerry -- Blair did not visit the areas most devastated by the three-week Israeli war on the territory.John Ging, the Gaza director of the UN refugee agency, said he hoped the visits had convinced decision-makers to change their failed policies and lift the Israeli and international blockade.

We rest our case now, there is nothing more to say. They have seen it and now it's up to them to live up to their responsibility to actually change it, he said after accompanying Blair on the school visit.Focus on the people, not the politics, and get the crossings open. It's as simple as that.Israel and Egypt have sealed Gaza off from all but limited humanitarian aid since Hamas, a group pledged to Israel's destruction, seized power in June 2007 after weeks of deadly street battles with secular Fatah rivals.Most of Gaza's 1.4 million population relies on aid from the outside world.Israel's 22-day onslaught in December and January caused damaged estimated at 1.95 billion dollars, the Palestinian Economic Council for Development and Reconstruction says.Blair was appointed Quartet representative in June 2007 after he stepped down following 10 years as prime minister.He had planned to make his maiden visit to Gaza in July 2008, but it was cancelled because of security concerns. Since his appointment, Blair has been spearheading several projects aimed at revitalising the Palestinian economy, including three planned industrial zones in the occupied West Bank. He has also pushed development projects in Gaza, including the repair of the water treatment plant, where a reservoir burst its banks in March 2007, flooding a village with raw sewage and drowning five Palestinians. The Quartet has refused to have dealings with Hamas, which swept Palestinian elections in January 2006, saying the group first has to renounce violence, recognise Israel and agree to abide by past peace deals. Blair said he hopes the Western-backed Palestinian Authority in the West Bank and Hamas can together develop a unified Palestinian response in a way that the international community can engage with the Palestinian people.

Rare snow blankets South as East braces for storm By JAY REEVES, Associated Press Writer MAR 02,09

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – A potent March snowstorm blanketed much of the Southeast with snow Sunday before barreling toward the Northeast, where officials prepared snowplows and road-salt for a wintery assault.The icy blast threatened to drop up to a foot of snow in the Philadelphia area, 13 inches in New York and 15 inches across southern New England late Sunday.Thousands of New York City sanitation workers prepared to salt city streets, and airlines preemptively canceled flights Sunday at the region's major airports.The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation planned to attack the snow in the Philadelphia area with 400 trucks and 77,000 tons of stockpiled salt, assistant press secretary Gene Blaum said.In Georgia, the snowfall rendered roads treacherous and delayed flights, while in Alabama, more than 210 churches in the central part of the Bible Belt state had to cancel morning services.

Vonda Braswell of Alabaster, Ala. was throwing snowballs in her front yard instead of putting on her Sunday best. I think you can worship in this it's so rare, she said.Up to 7 inches of snow was expected through Monday morning in areas of Maryland, northern Virginia and Washington, D.C., where Mayor Adrian Fenty declared a snow emergency.In Virginia, nearly 10,000 customers of two power companies lost electric power Sunday night after the storm blew in.Maryland has already spent more than $40 million responding to bad weather in what's been a colder-than-usual winter, Gov. Martin O'Malley said Sunday. Any money spent on digging out from the rare March storm will further burden a state that's facing a $2 billion budget shortfall.I don't like snow,O'Malley said.In New York, Mayor Michael Bloomberg announced more than 1,300 sanitation workers stood ready to spread salt and plow streets.It's the first of March, which as you know is the month that we say comes in like a lion and out like a lamb, he said. It's pretty clear that the lions are getting ready to roar.

As Wayne Letson drove through Alabama toward Florida on Sunday, the Michigan resident fretted about sharing the roads with Southerners unaccustomed to winter weather. The last time it snowed in Alabama was more than a year ago, in January 2008.This is nothing to me, but I'm worried about the other people who think they know what they're doing, he said.Despite above-freezing temperatures in downtown Atlanta, a heavy curtain of snow fell on cars and caused traffic accidents on slushy streets. The unusual weather prompted Jessi Prahl and Max DiPace to take their dog, Cooper, on a walk through snow-covered Piedmont Park.You know us Southerners, we all freak out when it snows, said Prahl, 26.Some flights were canceled at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, where the average delay was nearly two hours, according to the Federal Aviation Administration Web site.AirTran Airways spokesman Tad Hutcheson said flights out of Atlanta into the Northeast might also be canceled Sunday night.I expect the Northeast will be hit pretty hard tonight so our expectations is that people flying into Washington, D.C., and Boston will need to call or check our Web site for possible cancellations, Hutcheson told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Georgia transportation officials warned of potential icy buildup on roads in middle and northern counties through Monday morning, especially as temperatures plummet overnight.The late Southern snowfall revived memories of a large storm in 1993 that forecasters nicknamed the Snowfall of the Century, which spanned a region from Alabama to north of Washington, D.C., said Laura Griffith of the National Weather Service. In that storm, Atlanta received 4.2 inches of snow and 13 inches fell on Birmingham, Ala. Outside the CNN Center in downtown Atlanta, Flori Kwon of Claremont, Calif., took pictures of her son Jake, 5, cavorting in the snow.

He wants to make a snowman but I don't think there's enough, Kwon said while large snowflakes landed in her hair. We're kind of surprised it's snowing.Associated Press writers Daniel Yee and Christina Almeida in Atlanta contributed to this report.

Mullen: Iran has fissile materials for bomb By STEVEN R. HURST, Associated Press Writer MAR 02,09

WCCO Minneapolis Play Video Iran Video:Iran starts-up nuclear plant Reuters WASHINGTON – The top U.S. military official said Sunday that Iran has sufficient fissile material for a nuclear weapon, declaring it would be a very, very bad outcome should Tehran move forward with a bomb.Adm. Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, offered the assessment when questioned in a broadcast interview about a recent report by the U.N. nuclear watchdog on the state of Iran's uranium enrichment program, which can create nuclear fuel and may be sufficiently advanced to produce the core of warheads.Mullen was asked if Iran now had enough fissile material to make a bomb. He responded, We think they do, quite frankly. And Iran having a nuclear weapon I've believed for a long time is a very, very bad outcome for the region and for the world.Mullen's spokesman, Capt. John Kirby, said Mullen was referring only to the International Atomic Energy Agency's finding that Iran has processed 2,222 pounds (1,010 kilograms) of low-enriched uranium.Experts differ on whether that stockpile is enough to allow Iran to further refine the material and arm one weapon, should it choose to do so. Experts also disagree about how long it would take Iran to make the leap to a deployable weapon. Iran is continuing an accelerated nuclear development program.State Department spokesman Robert A. Wood said Sunday that it was not possible say how much fissile material Iran has accumulated.There are differing view not only outside government but also inside the government on how far Iran has gone, Wood said. He added that while he was not suggesting Mullen was incorrect, We just don't know exactly how much fissile material Iran now holds.

We are concerned they are getting close to having enough to build a nuclear weapon, he added. Wood spoke to reporters traveling with Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton in Egypt.Defense Secretary Robert Gates, who like Mullen appeared on the Sunday talk shows, did not go as far as Mullen. The Iranians, Gates said, are not close to a weapon at this point and so there is some time for continued diplomatic efforts.And the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, Susan Rice, recently told National Public Radio that the IAEA report confirms what we all had feared and anticipated, which is that Iran remains in pursuit of its nuclear program.Iran, now subjected to various penalties by the U.N., the U.S. and others over its nuclear program, denies it wants to build a bomb. It asserts its program is intended to provide the country with the homegrown ability to generate electricity from nuclear reactors.So far, the U.S. has not relented in its claims that Iran has ambitions to join the club of nuclear-armed nations. Mullen seemed to restate that position in his remarks on CNN's State of the Union. He was not asked to elaborate.Under an international nuclear treaty it has signed, Iran has the right to develop a civilian program for the nuclear generation of electricity. But any such program must be open to international inspection. Iran has balked at that after it became known in past years that the country had hidden portions of its nuclear effort that could be linked to a weapons program.At issue now is Iran's uranium enrichment efforts. The Bush administration insisted that was a precursor to making weapons-grade materials. President Barack Obama has sought to change course with Iran, offering diplomatic engagement in a bid to prove Tehran has more to lose by ignoring the wishes of other countries than it has to gain through its nuclear efforts.The question is whether you can increase the level of the sanctions and the cost to the Iranians of pursuing that program at the same time you show them an open door if they want to engage with the Europeans, with us and so on if they walk away from that program, Gates said. Our chances of being successful, it seems to me, are a lot better at $35 or $40 oil than they were at $140 oil because there are economic costs to this program, they do have economic challenges at home.Days after Obama announced his plan to withdraw U.S. combat forces from Iraq by Aug. 31, 2010, Mullen and Gates made clear their support for the commander in chief's approach.

Mullen said he was comfortable with the decision, while noting he was reluctant to talk about winning and losing in Iraq. Rather, he said, the conditions are in place for the Baghdad government to successfully take control of the country.Mullen said Obama listened extensively to the American military leadership and U.S. commanders in Iraq before announcing withdrawal. Under the president's order, the 142,000 U.S. forces in Iraq would be drawn down to between 35,000 and 50,000 troops by the 2010 date. All forces would be withdrawn by the last day of 2011. Gates said he thought it was fairly remote that conditions in Iraq would change enough to alter significantly the Obama plan. He said the president has said he retains the authority to change a plan if it's in the national security interests of the United States. Our soldiers will be consolidated into a limited number of bases in order to provide protection for themselves and for civilians who are out working in the Iraqi neighborhoods and countryside as well, Gates said. The risk to our troops will be substantially less than certainly was last year, and it has, has gradually declined.
Gates appeared on NBC's Meet the Press, while Mullen also was interviewed on Fox News Sunday.Associated Press writers Anne Gearan in Washington and Robert Burns in Sharm El-Sheik, Egypt, contributed to this story.

Sarkozy: No new commission president before Irish Lisbon re-run
ELITSA VUCHEVA 01.03.2009 @ 20:09 CET

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - The next president of the European Commission should not be appointed before Ireland's re-vote on the Lisbon treaty, French president Nicolas Sarkozy said on Sunday (1 March), while reiterating his support for current commission chief Jose Manuel Barroso.As regards the different candidacies, as you know, we are subject to the decision of our Irish friends on the ratification of the Lisbon treaty ...Depending on that, we will ask ourselves questions,Mr Sarkozy told journalists following a meeting of EU leaders in Brussels.I love Mr Barroso (l) very much,Mr Sarkozy (r) said (Photo: © European Community, 2008 )Ireland is expected to announce when it will hold its second referendum on the treaty by a June meeting of EU leaders at the latest. Irish citizens rejected the document in a first referendum last summer.The second vote is expected sometime in autumn, although there has been intense debate about whether to hold it earlier to cash in on fears Irish citizens have about the effects of the economic crisis. The next president of the commission was meant to be chosen at the June summit, a few weeks after the European Parliament elections.But the Irish vote will determine whether the EU will stick with the current Nice treaty - which foresees a reduction in the number of commissioners - or move to the Lisbon treaty.

Agreeing the commission chief later in the year is set to delay the whole of the new commission which is supposed to come into office at the beginning of November.Mr Sarkozy suggested it would be more cautious to wait anyway.I did a lot so that Ireland revotes, I was very much criticised about that ...I think that if we want to be a little clever [now], it is better to wait for the Irish vote rather than decide before they vote, he said.If we want to be blamed by everybody, let's do it. If we didn't understand what is happening, let's do it [appoint the president before the revote],he added.The French leader, who has previously backed the current commission president for a second mandate, reiterated his support for Mr Barroso.I do not change [my mind] like that, he said.I love Mr Barroso very much, I loved working with him [during the French EU presidency in the second half of 2008], I trust him and I trust the commission.

New member states call for EU solidarity
HONOR MAHONY 01.03.2009 @ 14:13 CET

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS – Central and eastern European countries have called for solidarity among member states, as several western states look to national solutions to get themselves out of the current economic crisis.The gathering of nine member states, who all joined the bloc after 2004, also offered their public support to the European Commission to uphold the principles of the internal market and fight against protectionism.Their message came just before all 27 member states gather in Brussels on Sunday afternoon (1 March) to talk about forging an EU response to the crisis, which has been notable for the public friction it has caused between national governments.Polish prime minister Donald Tusk, who chaired the mini meeting, said the EU as a whole should show universal solidarity, more responsibility and more optimism.He called on all member states to adhere to the rules and principles enshrined in the EU treaties, referring to upholding basic internal market rules and said the temptation of protectionism should be avoided.

The European Commission, which is currently examining plans by six member states to aid their car industries to see if they breach the bloc's strict state aid rules, welcomed their support.It is very important that in times of difficulty all countries of Europe are working together,said commission presisdent Jose Manuel Barroso.We need to do things in the spirit of true solidarity, he added noting that he had seen great commitment to Europe from the region.The newer member states have been alarmed by signs that richer member states intend to try and buy their way out of the crisis, an option not open to central and eastern countries.They have been calling for an EU response as a way of avoiding this trend, which could lead to a run towards economic nationalism. France prompted the talk of protectionism with its plans to give 6bn euros to its two major car-makers - a package that the European Commission has just indicated it will accept. French president Nicolas Sarkozy is expected to ask for an EU-wide car package at the summit later today, something which Germany is strongly opposed to.Meanwhile, solidarity among member states is in short supply as several countries grapple with the effects of the crisis and angry citizens.Some eastern states - including Hungary and Poland - feeling the cold of being outside the 16-nation eurozone, have asked that the rules for entering the single currency be speeded up.But this has already been rebuffed by Luxembourg prime minister Jean-Claude Juncker, in charge of the eurozone, who on arriving to the Brussels summit said: I don't think that we can change the accession criteria overnight. This is not feasible.

Currently the rules stipluate that countries have to remain in the euro waiting room for two years after meeting strict defict and exchange rate criteria. Poland's Europe minister Mikolaj Dowgielewicz said that one of the reasons of the Sunday morning's mini summit was stop there being a a plan for the west and a plan for the rest.He pointed to the issue of bailing out banks saying that eastern European member states, most of whom are outside the single currency, are worried that bailouts will be agreed only for eurozone banks and not for the rest.The meeting of EU leaders - a three-hour lunch - is expected to try and agree a common statement on how to respond to the crisis. A draft of the statement talks about building confidence and promoting financial stability as well as making the maximum possible use of the single market.

From The Times March 2, 2009 New Iron Curtain will split EU's rich and poorDavid Charter in Brussels

Eastern European countries gave an apocalyptic warning yesterday of hordes of unemployed workers heading west as a new Iron Curtain divides rich from poor inside Europe. Twenty years after the fall of the Berlin Wall, Western leaders were told yesterday that five million jobs could be lost in the new European Union countries of the East unless radical action were taken to bail them out. The spectacular collapse of some of the post-communist tiger economies led to demands at an EU summit in Brussels for a rescue fund of €190 billion (£170 billion) to stop social collapse in the Eastern nations spilling over into the rest of Europe. The plea, led by Hungary, was rejected in a bad-tempered meeting of the 27 European leaders, dominated by fears that Western EU countries would rather prop up their own large industries and jobs at the expense of the East. Instead Gordon Brown renewed his call for a huge injection of funds into the International Monetary Fund, which has already doled out large sums to Hungary and Latvia and is soon to receive a begging letter from Romania. The Prime Minister refused, however, to say where the fresh money for the IMF would come from. As he prepared to fly off for talks with President Obama today, Mr Brown left behind an EU increasingly split between its old and new economies and lacking the unity that he hoped to present in Washington and at the G20 summit in London next month. Ferenc Gyurcsany, the Hungarian leader, openly raised the spectre of collapse in Eastern Europe and the creation of a new Iron Curtain. Central Europe’s refinancing needs in 2009 could total €300 billion, 30per cent of the region’s GDP, he said in a paper calling for a fund of €160 billion to €190 billion to be set up by the richer EU members. A significant crisis in Eastern Europe would trigger political tensions and immigration pressures. With a Central and Eastern European population of 350 million, of which 100 million are in the EU, a 10 per cent increase in unemployment would lead to at least five million unemployed people within the EU.

Brown woos Obama on global dealJonathan Oliver, Political Editor

GORDON BROWN hopes to forge a partnership with President Barack Obama in Washington this week, to call for a global new deal to lift the world out of recession. As he prepares for his first White House visit since the president’s inauguration, the prime minister has hinted that he is ready to make further tax cuts to boost the UK economy. Brown will meet Obama on Tuesday and address a joint session of Congress on Wednesday. Aides say he has both to demonstrate to a sceptical British public that he commands the respect of the president, and to persuade the American political establishment that global action is needed to rescue the US economy. Brown is under pressure to persuade American political leaders to sign up to bold aims for the G20 summit of industrial and leading developing nations, which is to be held in London next month. Many US politicians believe economic policy should put America first, and have shown little interest in concerted global action. Brown will argue for a renewal of the transatlantic relationship, with the two powers working together to solve global economic problems. The prime minister will borrow from the rhetoric of Franklin Roosevelt, who introduced the government-financed New Deal to tackle the US Depression of the 1930s. He will argue that his 21st century global new deal will also require public spending on a huge world-wide scale. Writing in The Sunday Times today, Brown calls for universal action to prevent the crisis spreading, to stimulate the global economy and to help reduce the severity and length of the global recession. His stress on continued economic stimulation will increase speculation about next month’s budget. No 10 sources said that, while no final decision had been taken about further tax cuts, the prime minister would do whatever it took to pull the UK out of recession.

Asian stock markets tumble on worsening US slump By JEREMIAH MARQUEZ, AP Business Writer MAR 02,09

HONG KONG – Asian stocks tumbled Monday after the U.S. economy withered at its fastest pace in more than a quarter century, heightening doubts that the global economy can recover later this year. Japan's benchmark fell nearly 4 percent.As in the U.S. and Europe, investors across the region were shaken after figures Friday showed gross domestic product in the world's largest economy shrank at a 6.2 percent annual pace at the end of last year.The decline, worse than most economists had expected, was the country's sharpest since 1982.Adding to fears that the world economic crisis won't end anytime soon were signs that the world's financial firms, already infused with billions of dollars in government aid over the last year, need still more capital to make up for their colossal losses on bad assets.Last week, Citigroup Inc. agreed to turn over a huge stake to the U.S. government. European banking giant HSBC PLC is expected to unveil plans to raise 12 billion pounds ($17 billion) in a new rights issue when it reports results later Monday. And faltering insurer American International Group looks set to get a $30 billion bailout — its fourth government rescue.You're seeing the U.S. is sinking lower and lower, and we're still desperately searching for a bottom, said John Mar, co-head of sales trading at Daiwa Securities SMBC Co. in Hong Kong. It's death by a thousand cuts, a slow death right now.Every major market in Asia convulsed with selling.In Japan, the Nikkei 225 stock average dropped 288.27, or 3.8 percent, to 7,280.15.

Hong Kong's Hang Seng lost 501.99 points, or 3.9 percent, to 12,309.58, and South Korea's Kospi plummeted 4.2 percent to 1,018.81. Markets in Australia, Taiwan and Singapore shed about 3 percent or more.Equities markets in the U.S. and Europe suffered a similar rout on Friday.In New York, the Dow fell 119.15, or 1.7 percent, to 7,062.93 — its lowest close since May 1, 1997.The S&P 500 index fell 17.74, or 2.4percent, to 735.09, and the Nasdaq composite index fell 13.63, or 1 percent, to 1,377.84.With U.S. futures down, Wall Street was poised for more losses. Dow futures were down 93 points, or 1.3 percent, at 6,959 and S&P500 futures lost 12.8, or 1.7 percent, to 721.40.Asian financial stocks were among the hardest hit. Leading Japanese bank Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group dived over 5 percent. In Hong Kong, shares of HSBC were suspended ahead of Monday's results and expected announcements.

Oil prices weakened in early trade, with benchmark crude for April delivery down 98 cents at $43.78. Last week in the U.S., the contract fell 46 cents to settle at $44.76 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.In currencies, the dollar was little changed at 97.50 yen, while the euro dropped to $1.2585 from $1.2668.

EU leaders paper over divisions on economic crisis
HONOR MAHONY 01.03.2009 @ 20:25 CET

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - Just hours after the European Commission approved a French car aid plan, EU leaders on Sunday (1 March) sought to put a lid on damaging divisions in the bloc on how to deal with the financial crisis by saying that none of its member states is being protectionist.We agreed that there is no case that we see as protectionist, said Czech prime minister Mirek Topolanek, who called the informal gathering of EU leaders to discuss the threat of protectionism.Downplaying the public spat between Paris and Prague sparked by French comments against car companies relocating to eastern Europe, the Czech leader added: We agreed that this is rather more a media thing than reality.The summit had been called on the back of rising fears that internal market rules would be breached as countries sought to protect industries, particularly the car sector, from haemorrhaging jobs. Bullish talk by Mr Sarkozy in the run-up to the summit on his right to protect industry had led to tension around the EU. But the heat was taken out of the summit after a u-turn by the French government relaxing some of the conditions for its €6 billion car industry aid plan, meaning the European Commission could give its approval to the plan just ahead of the summit.

Bad word - bad idea

After Sunday's meeting French president Sarkozy told reporters that protectionism was a bad word and a bad idea.Polish prime minister Donald Tusk, who chaired a pre-summit gathering of nine central and eastern European states said: Everybody without exception agreed that protectionism is not a cure for the crisis. We also reached agreement that the EU will jointly try to stabilise currencies, no matter how many countries are in the eurozone.European Commission president Jose Manuel Barroso noted that it was very clearly stated that the internal market is the engine for recovery.There was also a concerted effort to stop talk of an east-west divide as richer member states look to spend their way out of the crisis.Mr Barroso stressed that each country has to be looked at on its own merits and that the region could not be viewed as a homogenous whole, while Czech prime minister Topolanek said: I think it is clear that the EU is going to leave nobody in the lurch.

No bailout for eastern Europe

However, a push by the new member states to speed up the procedure for entering the eurozone as a way of helping them cope with the economic crisis was rejected by other EU member states. A proposal by Hungary to set up a fund of at least €160 billion for central and eastern European countries was also turned down.German chancellor Angela Merkel rejected the need for a one-size-fits-all bailout, saying the situation in Hungary - which has been hard hit by the global credit crisis - cannot be directly compared to other countries in the region.The final statement of the summit says that protectionism is no answer to the current crisis and has a line saying that support for parent banks should not imply any restrictions on the activities of subsidiaries in the EU host countries. Eastern member states fear that if parent banks in western countries get into financial trouble they could withdraw capital from their daughter banks in eastern Europe.Although diplomats said there was a harmonious atmosphere around the table, little of substance was agreed.

Business group Eurochambres complained about the results of the meeting, saying there were no tangible actions.This summit was yet another rather unproductive political showpiece, bringing no concrete solutions to the dramatic economic situation and showing a worrying lack of economic co-ordination among member states. We deeply hope that the spring European Council will do better in a couple weeks time,said secretary general Arnaldo Abruzzini.EU leaders are due to meet for their regular spring meeting on 19-20 March.

[Comment] What does the financial crisis mean for EU foreign policy?
DANIEL KORSKI 25.02.2009 @ 09:05 CET

EUOBSERVER / COMMENT - In a few months, the financial crisis has changed everything - the nature of capitalism, the appropriate role of the state in managing markets, the limits of government action to name a few. The global financial crisis is now understood to have implications that go far beyond the financial and economic sectors. But what will the crisis do to the EU's fledgling foreign policy? Uncertainty is the currency of the moment, but even through the cloud caused by imploding financial institutions, some of the likely effects on the EU's Common and Foreign Security Policy (CFSP) are discernable.A single market that implodes noisily in the midst of a crisis is hardly an appealing model(Photo: eu2007.de)The first consequence of the financial crisis on the EU's foreign policy is likely to be indirect. The row over protectionism between the Czech leader Mirek Topolanek and France's Nicolas Sarkozy has thrown into relief the notion of member state solidarity, which lies at the heart of the European Project.The EU states are bound together by technical means but rely for their collaboration on something deeper – the idea that Danes and Romanians share a basic sense of a common destiny as constituent parts of single, albeit undefined, political entity. Once this bond of solidarity is diminished, it is hard to see European governments agreeing on much of anything, let alone politically sensitive areas of public policy, such as foreign affairs. Second, the financial crisis will cause a decrease in support for the parts of the foreign policy agenda that the EU has often championed. Funding shortfalls, caused by the billion-euro bailouts, may undermine support for post-material causes such as environmental initiatives, development assistance, and democracy promotion.

Why fight poverty abroad, many of Europe's newly unemployed will ask, if it is rising at home? Post-material causes, because they are newer concerns and not the traditional preserve of member states, have been an opportunity for the EU to establish itself as an important actor in foreign policy. Having staked out its role as a post-material actor, the EU's influence will accordingly decline with the drop in support of a post-material agenda in Europe and beyond. The third problem relates to the EU as a model and norm-setter. As Richard Youngs of Spanish think-tank FRIDE notes the EU's international leverage is based in large measure on the normative appeal of its own internal market. But the row over protectionism has begun raising questions about the viability of Europe's single market, which guarantees the free movement of goods, capital and people. Some old EU states, like France, have also shown their willingness to test the EU's state aid rules in ways never seen before. Together, these developments will have profound effects inside the EU. But they will also diminish the allure of the EU as a model based on the free market and good governance standards. A single market that implodes noisily in the midst of a crisis is hardly an appealing model, even in good times.Fourth, the financial crisis is likely to jeopardise the EU's most successful foreign policy to date, its outward enlargement. Predictably, the European Commission and the Czech government, now at the helm of the EU's rotating presidency, argue that the EU's enlargement has been positive for the union - including by boosting income and trade growth - and therefore should continue, with enthusiasm. But enthusiasm for further enlargement was already on the wane before the crisis. Now, the growing resentment over intra-EU labour migration in countries like Britain, Ireland, and Spain is hardly likely to engender support for millions of potential new migrants from Turkey, or the Balkans or for structural adjustment funds to be spent outside of today's EU. As a new paper by the Center for European Reform notes With Europeans now fearing for their jobs and incomes, opposition to the union taking in more poor countries will most likely rise further.

Fifth, as member state governments start to cut their budgets, funds available to the CFSP mechanisms and bilateral development assistance, especially in the new EU countries, are very likely to take a hit. This may be most keenly felt in Europe's eastern neighbourhood, where the new EU states have complemented European Commission assistance (with a myriad of bilateral programmes). Latvia's assistance to Moldova, Georgia, Ukraine and Belarus, for example, is likely to be trimmed back. Any appetite for large-scale foreign missions, like the billion-euro EULEX mission in Kosovo, is also set to disappear and not only among new EU states. European governments may also begin cutting their secondments to the EU institutions. Already some countries have told staff seconded to the EU institutions they should not expect their contracts to be extended after 2009. The Lisbon treaty, which the Irish now look likely to approve, establishes as arguably its most important foreign policy provision a new European diplomatic corps - the External Action Service (EAS). Though the treaty is thin on its details, it does specify that the EAS must comprise in part of staff seconded from the EU's diplomatic services. But if European governments cannot afford to fill the forthcoming vacancies with first-class secondees, then the organisation will likely never take off.The writer is a senior policy fellow at the European Council on Foreign Relations.

Oil falls below $44 on bleak US GDP, AIG news By ALEX KENNEDY, Associated Press Writer – Sun Mar 1, 11:48 pm ET

SINGAPORE – Oil prices fell to below $44 a barrel Monday as hopes for a quick end to the global slump evaporated amid dismal U.S. economic news and the prospect of another massive bailout of ailing insurer American International Group Inc.Benchmark crude for April delivery fell $1.08 to $43.68 a barrel by midday in Singapore on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract fell 46 cents on Friday to settle at $44.76.In another sign that the U.S. financial crisis continues to sap the government's coffers, AIG will receive up to $30 billion in additional federal assistance, people familiar with the matter told The Associated Press on Sunday. The company previously received about $150 billion in loans from the government, which holds an 80 percent stake.The Commerce Department said Friday that gross domestic product contracted 6.2 percent in the fourth quarter, the worst showing in a quarter-century.The fourth quarter GDP data out of the U.S. was simply terrible, said Victor Shum, an energy analyst with Purvin & Gertz in Singapore. It's the economic reality that's correcting oil prices.Investors are concerned demand for oil will continue to weaken amid the worst global slowdown in decades. Prices could fall to $25 a barrel within the next three months, said Alan Plaugmann, head of futures and options trading at Denmark-based Saxo Capital Markets.We expect another leg down from here, Plaugmann said. Consumer demand is in a downward slope. I don't think we'll bring ourselves out of recession for at least three to five years.Iran's Oil Minister Gholam Hossein Nozari said OPEC doesn't plan to cut production at its next meeting on March 15, state news agency IRNA reported Sunday.Leaders of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries have for weeks said the group would likely add to 4.2 million barrels a day of output cuts pledged since September.It's too early to say what they'll do, but more of the OPEC chatter points to the possibility of cutting, Shum said.Many OPEC countries rely on oil revenue to fund their budgets, and leaders of the 13-member cartel have said they would like prices to rise to $70 a barrel. Higher oil prices, however, could choke off economic growth.OPEC is confronting a dilemma, Shum said. Assuming these cuts eventually work and prices go up, OPEC could prolong this global economic downturn.In other Nymex trading, gasoline for April delivery fell 3.15 cents to $1.36 a gallon, while heating oil declined 1.90 cents to $1.25 a gallon. Natural gas for April delivery gained 18.4 cents to $4.26 per 1,000 cubic feet.Brent prices fell $1.16 to $45.19 on the ICE Futures exchange in London.

New World Order Crony Gary Hart Calls for Civic Duty Kurt Nimmo Infowars
March 1, 2009

Citing none other than Pericles and John F. Kennedy, CFR member and New World Order minion Gary Hart declares on the liberal Huffington Post website that the notion of dedication, participation, and service is as old as the Republic itself. Hart says the globalist front man Barack Obama has awakened a renewed spirit of national service and the American Republic must now respond. For Hart and the Greek elitist Pericles, those who do not respond are useless and devoid of civic virtue.Gary Hart admits the attacks of September 11, 2001, served as a perfect excuse to create a New World Order. For Hart and the banker front man Obama, it is time for the plebs to give something back to the republic. Unfortunately, the United States is no longer a republic. It is a bankster dominated plutocracy. For Obama, Gary Hart, and the global elite, it is not enough that many Americans volunteer to help those in need within their local communities — the renewed spirit of national service must be mandated by law. Last September, Congress passed the Serve America Act, legislation creating the Education Corps, the Healthy Futures Corps, the Clean Energy Service Corps, the Opportunity Corps, and the Reserve Corps, among other initiatives.During his Inaugural Address, Obama declared this expensive and burdensome expansion of government represents a new era of responsibility.

For Obama and the Democrats, however, national service transcends volunteerism. In a speech on national service at the University of Colorado last year, Obama promised that as president he would set a goal for all American middle and high school students to perform 50 hours of service a year, and for all college students to perform 100 hours of service a year.Note that Obama did not say those who volunteered. He said the government will demand all students serve. Once upon a time this was called indentured servitude or slavery. Now it is called a renewed spirit of national service.Problem number one with grand schemes for universal voluntary public service is that they can’t be both universal and voluntary, notes Michael Kinsley.If everybody has to do it, then it’s not voluntary, is it? And if it’s truly up to the individual, then it won’t be universal. What advocates of this sort of thing generally have in mind is using the pressures of social conformity and the powers of the state indirectly to remove as much freedom of choice as possible.

In 2006, Obama’s Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel, called for compulsory universal service. It’s time for a real Patriot Act that brings out the patriot in all of us, Emanuel wrote in The Plan: Big Ideas for America, co-authored with Bruce Reed. We propose universal civilian service for every young American. Under this plan, All Americans between the ages of eighteen and twenty-five will be asked to serve their country by going through three months of basic training, civil defense preparation and community service.Rahm was not alone in his demand the youth of America be press-ganged into service. On the America Serves page of Obama’s transition website, the following appeared:Obama will call on citizens of all ages to serve America, by developing a plan to require 50 hours of community service in middle school and high school and 100 hours of community service in college every year. Obama will encourage retiring Americans to serve by improving programs available for individuals over age 55, while at the same time promoting youth programs such as Youth Build and Head Start.After a firestorm of criticism, Obama’s people revised the text and removed the word require (see Paul Joseph Watson, Obama Website Scrubs Mandatory Community Service Call, November 10, 2008). Our children, as well as ourselves, are independent individuals. We are not resources to be drawn upon by politicians. Nor do we owe our labor to the government, complained J.D. Tuccille on the Examiner website. Obama, Gary Hart, much of Congress and their global elite controllers, however, would beg to differ. Our rulers pine for the days when kings rallied serfs at the point of a sword into bloody wars waged against their royal cousins, if not directly for conquest at least to dampen the forever present spirit of rebellion on the part of the hungry and dispossessed.

As we enter a new era of hunger and dispossession engineered by the international bankers, the global elite and their minions are calling for national service, not so much to help the homeless and poor but to inculcate the dumbed-down masses into a belief that serving the government — serving the elite — is a highly regarded American attribute. Resistance to expanded public service programs can be expected from the ideologically sclerotic, those who occupy the negative ground between government as the problem and government as our enemy. These are clearly people unfamiliar with Pericles of even for that matter Thomas Jefferson, Gary Hart concludes. Never mind the Greek elitist Pericles, who considered those who refused to serve the Archon useless, it is rather nauseating a globalist tool such as Gary Hart would cite Thomas Jefferson. Jefferson knew that the bankers represent the downfall and enslavement of the republic. I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered,Jefferson wrote in 1802. Gary Hart is a trusted member of the Council on Foreign Relations, founded in 1921 by a very select group of international bankers, Wall Street lawyers and wealthy old money families, that is to say the New World Order. These same international bankers that started the CFR were instrumental in getting President Woodrow Wilson to sign the Federal Reserve Act into existence in 1913 that basically gave these international bankers the power to print money and control our entire economy, writes John W. Wallace. As well, they were instrumental in engineering the 1929 stock market crash and the Great Depression. Gary Hart’s editorial published by the clueless at the Huffington Post represents a renewed push by the global elite to brainwash the plebs into accepting their enslavement, a prerequisite for the coming times of economic hardship and possible war on a global scale.

NKorea, UN command hold urgent talks at Korean DMZ By HYUNG-JIN KIM, Associated Press Writer MAR 02,09

SEOUL, South Korea – High-level military officials from North Korea and the U.S.-led U.N. Command held urgent talks at the border Monday amid heightened tensions in the region and concerns that the North intends to test-fire a long-range missile.The talks at the village of Panmunjom inside the Demilitarized Zone dividing North and South Korea — the first meetings between general-level military officials since 2002 were hastily arranged after the North proposed them last week, U.N. command spokesman Kim Yong-kyu said.These talks can be useful in building trust and preventing misunderstanding as well as introducing transparency regarding the intentions of both sides, the U.N. command said in a statement. Kim said his office would disclose details about the meeting after it was over.Relations between the two Koreas are at their lowest point in a decade, with North Korea bristling over South Korean President Lee Myung-bak's hard-line policy toward Pyongyang. The two Koreas technically remain at war because their three-year conflict in the 1950s ended in a truce, not a peace treaty.The tensions have intensified in recent weeks amid reports that North Korea is preparing to test a long-range missile believed capable of reaching U.S. territory.Analysts say communist North Korea also wants to capture President Barack Obama's attention at a time when international disarmament talks with the regime remain stalled.Obama is dispatching his envoy for North Korea, Stephen W. Bosworth, to Asia this week to discuss the nuclear dispute. Bosworth plans to meet with officials in China, Japan and South Korea, and will consult separately with Russian officials, the State Department said.

The North last week called its plans a peaceful bid to push its space program forward by sending a communications satellite into orbit and warned it would punish anyone who attempts to disrupt its launch plan.Neighboring governments believe the satellite claim may be a cover for a missile launch.The U.S., South Korea and other neighboring nations have warned North Korea against firing either a missile or a satellite, saying both would invite international sanctions.North Korea, which in 2006 tested a nuclear weapon and unsuccessfully fired a long-range missile, is banned from engaging in any ballistic missile activity under a U.N. Security Council resolution.The North, meanwhile, stepped up the rhetoric against South Korea and the U.S., citing a policy of confrontation against the communist country.If the U.S. warlike forces opt for reckless military confrontation and provocation of a war of aggression against (North Korea), the latter will mercilessly stamp out aggressors, said Yang Hyong Sop, vice president of the parliament, the state-run Korean Central News Agency reported Sunday.The warning comes as the U.S. and South Korea prepare for next week's annual military exercises, drills that North Korea calls a rehearsal for invasion but that Seoul and Washington say are purely defensive.South Korea's new unification minister, Hyun In-taek, said Monday that Seoul is ready for dialogue with Pyongyang to improve the difficult ties between the neighboring nations.

The two Koreas remain divided by the world's most heavily fortified border, with the U.S.-led U.N. Command overseeing their 1953 cease-fire.Although other nations contributed forces during the Korean War, U.S. troops are the only combat forces left on the peninsula apart from the South Korean military. The U.S. has 28,500 troops in South Korea.AP Television News reporter Yong-ho Kim contributed to this report.

THE JUDGEMENT OF THE NATIONS

JOEL 3:2
2 I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.

DANIEL 12:8-13
8 And I (DANIEL) heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things?
9 And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.
10 Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.
11 And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, (at the 3 1/2 yr mark of the 7 yr treaty) and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.
12 Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.
13 But go thou thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of the days.

MATTHEW 25:31-46
31 When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:
32 And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:
33 And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.
46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

Leftists worship at altar of death cult, says book,United in Hate' author explains alliance between jihadists, self-hating Americans March 01, 2009 11:32 pm Eastern 2009 WorldNetDaily

It's a book that will make so-called progressives see red.

In United in Hate: The Left's Romance With Tyranny and Terror, author Jamie Glazov says there's an unholy alliance between jihadists and people like Michael Moore, Sean Penn, Ted Turner and Noam Chomsky, and, at the heart of the mutual admiration is a willingness to accept massive numbers of deaths to achieve their objectives.

What's bound to be most infuriating to those Americans and many other westerners mentioned in the book is the way Glazov uses their own words to make the point. Not only do I think it's possible [a Muslim-leftist alliance] but I think it is vitally necessary and I think it is happening already, explains leftist British lawmaker George Galloway. It is possible because the progressive movement around the world and the Muslims have the same enemies. Their enemies are the Zionist occupation, American occupation, British occupation of poor countries, mainly Muslim countries. They have the same interest in opposing savage capitalist globalization, which is intent upon homogenizing the entire world, turning us basically into factory chickens which can be force fed the American diet of everything from food to Coca-Cola to movies and TV culture and whose only role in life is to consume the things produced endlessly by the multinational corporations ...While it's hardly news that there's cheerleading of anti-American Islamists on the left, what is news in United in Hate is the startling diagnosis of what is at the root of the alliance. Glazov concludes: This is where the Western Left and militant Islam (like the Western Left and Communism) intersect: human life must be sacrificed for the sake of the idea. Like Islamists, leftists have a Manichean vision that rigidly distinguishes good from evil. They see themselves as personifications of the former and their opponents as personifications of the latter, who must be slated for ruthless elimination.With both ideologies, explains Glazov, the cause is the dividing line of morality. If you are against it, you are an enemy of the people. We'll ask the man, where do you stand on the question of the revolution? explained Lenin. Are you for it or against it? If he's against it, we'll stand him up against a wall.

Lenin was serious about extermination of political enemies and others who were inconvenient to the cause of the communist revolution in the Soviet Union. But that didn't bother western leftists who traveled there and covered up his crimes and those of his successors. A legendary and persistent hero of the left in the U.S. to this day is Ernesto Che Guevara, Fidel Castro's second in command, whose image still emblazons designer T-shirts on college campuses around the country. His life was recently celebrated in the movie Motorcycle Diaries.But here's what Guevara wrote in his book of the same name: Crazy with fury I will stain my rifle red while slaughtering any enemy that falls into my hands! My nostrils dilate while savoring the acrid odor of gunpowder and blood. With the deaths of my enemies I prepare my being for the sacred fight and join the triumphant proletariat with a bestial howl.

Long after Cuba's firing squads had eliminated tens of thousands of dissidents and the gulags swallowed up the political prisoners, Glazov shows, American leftists, including many celebrities, were still holding up Cuba as the pinnacle of freedom.

Francis Ford Coppola said: Fidel, I love you. We both have the same initials. We both have beards. We both have power and want to use it for good purposes. Harry Belafonte said: If you believe in freedom, if you believe in justice, if you believe in democracy, you have no choice but to support Fidel Castro.Likewise, Glazov illustrates how many American leftists turned a blind eye to the potential for mass murder in Vietnam in the event of a communist victory. Few had second thoughts or expressed regrets or denunciation of the atrocities when they took place. Once again, writes Glazov, the believers did not care about the victims of their idols. In the eyes of the Left, those victims had merely gotten what they deserved – because their existence was an obstacle in the path to earthly utopia.Glazov points out that modern Islamism was actually incubated by both the Nazis and Marxist-Leninist thought. While militant Islam has its own unique religious component, it shares with the secular totalitarianisms the impulse to create an earthly paradise by washing the slate clean with human blood, he writes. There is in fact no sacred/secular distinction in Islam, and Islamists envision enforcing the kingdom of heaven on earth. The greatest obligation of the Islamist, like that of the believer in the other two totalisms, is to submit his will to the deity and, if the opportunity arises, to give his life for it. Martyrdom and suicide become the favored expressions of this submission and of the radical desire for perfection. It is precisely this ingredient that has so attracted the Western Left to Islamism.

Besides anti-Americanism and bloodlust, leftists and Islamists share another common denominator, writes Glazov – hatred of Jews. Like its ideological cousins, Fascism and Communism, Islamism wages war against Jews in its effort to secure its own survival, he says. Totalist ideologies detest modernity, individual freedom and any value place on individual human life – notions with which Jews are strongly identified. Jews also personify the enduring struggle to survive, rather than the impulse to destroy and perish. … [S]uch a disposition is tantamount to a declaration of war.If you are a member of the media and would like to interview Jamie Glazov, e-mail publicist Sandy Frazier.

FEDS GRANT EMINENT DOMAIN AS COLLATERAL TO CHINA FOR U.S. DEBTS! Posted by Roy Sampley on February 26, 2009 at 8:12pm View Roy Sampley's blog February 26, 2009
FEDS GRANT EMINENT DOMAIN AS COLLATERAL TO CHINA FOR U.S. DEBTS!

Beijing, China -- Sources at the United States Embassy in Beijing China have just CONFIRMED to me that the United States of America has tendered to China a written agreement which grants to the People's Republic of China, an option to exercise Eminent Domain within the USA, as collateral for China's continued purchase of US Treasury Notes and existing US Currency reserves!The written agreement was brought to Beijing by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and was formalized and agreed-to during her recent trip to China.This means that in the event the US Government defaults on its financial obligations to China, the Communist Government of China would be permitted to physically take -- inside the USA -- land, buildings, factories, perhaps even entire cities - to satisfy the financial obligations of the US government.

Put simply, the feds have now actually mortgaged the physical land and property of all citizens and businesses in the United States. They have given to a foreign power, their Constitutional power to take all of our property, as actual collateral for continued Chinese funding of US deficit spending and the continued carrying of US national debt.This is an unimaginable betrayal of every man, woman and child in the USA. An outrage worthy of violent overthrow.I am endeavoring to obtain images or copies of the actual document but in the interim, several different sources both in the US and in China have CONFIRMED this to me.More details as they become available. . . . . spread the word ASAP.

-------------- UPDATE 1:40 pm EST

Eminent Domain is the power of government to TAKE private property for public use without the consent of the property owner. Under our Constitution, the government can only take when providing just compensation for what they've taken.Who decides what constitutes just compensation? The government! Homeowners who felt the government was not paying them enough for property in past takings have filed lawsuits. In absolutely every such case, the value placed upon the property by the government was upheld by the courts.Our federal government has now granted to China, this power to "take"our homes and businesses in the event the US Gov't defaults on its debts. Let's play this out as a worst case scenario. . . . . .The US Gov't goes belly-up and China comes in and says, they owed us $2 Trillion in Treasury Notes and another $2 Trillion in actual cash money which is now worthless. We are taking the entire state of Hawaii and the entire state of California in lieu of this bad debt.

With the stroke of a Chinese chop stick, Hawaii and California -- all the land and buildings in those states -- are now owned by China.The taking would be a valid public use because it was taken in payment of the public debt!!!!China could then turn around and declare the value of all that land to be worth. . . . . I dunno, ten cents on a dollar?

For your $200,000 house, you get a Chinese check for $20,000.

Needless to say, the property owners would go ballistic and demand just compensation for what was taken. Who gets to decide what is just? China! Don't think you got a fair price for what they took? No problem, sue China.

You'll lose.

People who live in those states and own their land outright, might be able to negotiate with China to "rent" back their own property, as long as the property owner continued to pay all his taxes; but the land and buildings would belong to China! This is what our own Government has just done to us and it is the single most vile act of betrayal in the history of human existence.

------------- SECOND UPDATE 3:48 PM

In early February nine U.S. States began the process of re-asserting their Sovereignty pursuant to the Ninth and Tenth Amendments to the US Constitution; declaring null and void any actions by Congress that violated the Constitution.At the time, I wrote about those state efforts (Here) and wondered why so many states were taking-up such an arcane issue in such a seemingly urgent fashion. I guess now, we know why.The states were obviously privy to what the feds were planning to do with granting Eminent Domain to China. The states took action to make certain the feds couldn't give away cities or the states themselves!This situation is going to get VERY ugly, VERY fast as one sovereign power (the feds) try to literally give away the land of other sovereign powers, (the states). This is the type of thing that starts Civil War.Our present federal government makes the treachery and betrayal of Benedict Arnold look like child's play. Does anyone have any information on this?

Aw! Now ain't that nice? A european Identity

In our belief, the development of the EU identity is a worthy and attainable goal because Europeans share not only common values, a common history, but also share a common future in the integration process. An identity is at the heart of European integration project and the EU identity should be considered as unity in diversity.

The EU identity as unity in diversity is a belief in the common and a faith in the difference.Each country has its own national identity but added to that one can choose the EU identity and let the EU identity be a part of a member state’s identity. Therefore, the objectives of the EU’s cultural policy have to protect and promote cultural identity at regional, national and European levels and to realize an open and dynamic European cultural space which contributes to the EU identity.

In the process of creating the common identity, there are certain things need to be thought of and done locally, traditions for example; for the other matters it would be more appropriate to think and act nationally like cultural policies; for economic, foreign and security policies, a European approach is much more suitable and a global approach is for environmental and trade policies. In some fields such as human rights, social policy and financial policy, the EU has gone towards the notion of unity, union. However, if people want to feel European, they should move towards a greatest degree of integration. They should try to abolish any elements of nationalism that prevent Europe from achieving the so much wanted union and try to reach the common cultural policy as well. It is important to remind people that Europe is what its countries and people make. If people make their country and society prosper, it also benefits Europe and the EU. European security means security for each of the countries and secure conditions and open democracy at home strengthens the EU. A stronger Europe bases on a common identity, socially and economically, is a safer Europe with a growing economy. Language and culture must be taught, to encourage people to learn more languages so they can speak in a common tongue. There should be many more school exchanges to make use of new technology: schools could use the internet to establish and work with partner schools in several countries. Media also has a real responsibility for advancing knowledge of the new Europe. As mentioned, education is another major factor in forming individual and collective the youth’s knowledge of European culture, make it much easier to communicate and feel freely with people educated in the same tradition. That is why the EU started sponsoring study in other member states, hoping for a positive impact on the sense of the EU identity. National identities time to form and develop, so does the EU identity.

America Goes The Way of the USSR George Washington’s Blog
Friday, February 27, 2009

You know that our economy has been turned into a socialist system. You’re already probably mad about that.But there are many other ways in which America is going the way of the Soviet Union.For example, China is criticizing America’s human rights record, just like we used to criticize Soviet human rights abuses.
http://www.reuters.com/article/worldNews/idUSTRE51Q09620090227

And George Soros says the world financial system has effectively disintegrated, and that the turbulence is actually more severe than during the Great Depression, comparing the current situation to the demise of the Soviet Union.
http://www.reuters.com/article/newsOne/idUSTRE51K0A920090221?sp=true

So the official finding by the U.S. Energy Department that the DOE cannot account for nuclear materials at 15 locations caught my eye. Remember, in the former Soviet Union, nuclear material frequently went missing and was then sold on the black market.
http://gsn.nti.org/gsn/nw_20090224_7895.php

And just as the Soviet Union broke up, there are more and more indications that the US will break up. See this, this, this, this and this.

2 And thou shalt make holy garments for Aaron thy brother for glory and for beauty.
3 And thou shalt speak unto all that are wise hearted, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom, that they may make Aaron's garments to consecrate him, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.
4 And these are the garments which they shall make; a breastplate, and an ephod, and a robe, and a broidered coat, a mitre, and a girdle: and they shall make holy garments for Aaron thy brother, and his sons, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.
5 And they shall take gold, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen.
6 And they shall make the ephod of gold, of blue, and of purple, of scarlet, and fine twined linen, with cunning work.

9 And thou shalt take two onyx stones, and grave on them the names of the children of Israel:
10 Six of their names on one stone, and the other six names of the rest on the other stone, according to their birth.
11 With the work of an engraver in stone, like the engravings of a signet, shalt thou engrave the two stones with the names of the children of Israel: thou shalt make them to be set in ouches of gold.
12 And thou shalt put the two stones upon the shoulders of the ephod for stones of memorial unto the children of Israel: and Aaron shall bear their names before the LORD upon his two shoulders for a memorial.
13 And thou shalt make ouches of gold;
14 And two chains of pure gold at the ends; of wreathen work shalt thou make them, and fasten the wreathen chains to the ouches.
15 And thou shalt make the breastplate of judgment with cunning work; after the work of the ephod thou shalt make it; of gold, of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, and of fine twined linen, shalt thou make it.
16 Foursquare it shall be being doubled; a span shall be the length thereof, and a span shall be the breadth thereof.
17 And thou shalt set in it settings of stones, even four rows of stones: the first row shall be a sardius, a topaz, and a carbuncle: this shall be the first row.
18 And the second row shall be an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond.
19 And the third row a ligure, an agate, and an amethyst.
20 And the fourth row a beryl, and an onyx, and a jasper: they shall be set in gold in their inclosings.
21 And the stones shall be with the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names, like the engravings of a signet; every one with his name shall they be according to the twelve tribes.
22 And thou shalt make upon the breastplate chains at the ends of wreathen work of pure gold.
23 And thou shalt make upon the breastplate two rings of gold, and shalt put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate.
24 And thou shalt put the two wreathen chains of gold in the two rings which are on the ends of the breastplate.
25 And the other two ends of the two wreathen chains thou shalt fasten in the two ouches, and put them on the shoulderpieces of the ephod before it.
26 And thou shalt make two rings of gold, and thou shalt put them upon the two ends of the breastplate in the border thereof, which is in the side of the ephod inward.
27 And two other rings of gold thou shalt make, and shalt put them on the two sides of the ephod underneath, toward the forepart thereof, over against the other coupling thereof, above the curious girdle of the ephod.
28 And they shall bind the breastplate by the rings thereof unto the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue, that it may be above the curious girdle of the ephod, and that the breastplate be not loosed from the ephod.
29 And Aaron shall bear the names of the children of Israel in the breastplate of judgment upon his heart, when he goeth in unto the holy place, for a memorial before the LORD continually.
30 And thou shalt put in the breastplate of judgment the Urim and the Thummim; and they shall be upon Aaron's heart, when he goeth in before the LORD: and Aaron shall bear the judgment of the children of Israel upon his heart before the LORD continually.
31 And thou shalt make the robe of the ephod all of blue.
32 And there shall be an hole in the top of it, in the midst thereof: it shall have a binding of woven work round about the hole of it, as it were the hole of an habergeon, that it be not rent.
33 And beneath upon the hem of it thou shalt make pomegranates of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, round about the hem thereof; and bells of gold between them round about:
34 A golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate, upon the hem of the robe round about.
35 And it shall be upon Aaron to minister: and his sound shall be heard when he goeth in unto the holy place before the LORD, and when he cometh out, that he die not.
36 And thou shalt make a plate of pure gold, and grave upon it, like the engravings of a signet, HOLINESS TO THE LORD.
37 And thou shalt put it on a blue lace, that it may be upon the mitre; upon the forefront of the mitre it shall be.
38 And it shall be upon Aaron's forehead, that Aaron may bear the iniquity of the holy things, which the children of Israel shall hallow in all their holy gifts; and it shall be always upon his forehead, that they may be accepted before the LORD.
39 And thou shalt embroider the coat of fine linen, and thou shalt make the mitre of fine linen, and thou shalt make the girdle of needlework.
40 And for Aaron's sons thou shalt make coats, and thou shalt make for them girdles, and bonnets shalt thou make for them, for glory and for beauty.
41 And thou shalt put them upon Aaron thy brother, and his sons with him; and shalt anoint them, and consecrate them, and sanctify them, that they may minister unto me in the priest's office.
42 And thou shalt make them linen breeches to cover their nakedness; from the loins even unto the thighs they shall reach:
43 And they shall be upon Aaron, and upon his sons, when they come in unto the tabernacle of the congregation, or when they come near unto the altar to minister in the holy place; that they bear not iniquity, and die: it shall be a statute for ever unto him and his seed after him.

EXODUS 29:1-46
1 And this is the thing that thou shalt do unto them to hallow them, to minister unto me in the priest's office: Take one young bullock, and two rams without blemish,
2 And unleavened bread, and cakes unleavened tempered with oil, and wafers unleavened anointed with oil: of wheaten flour shalt thou make them.
3 And thou shalt put them into one basket, and bring them in the basket, with the bullock and the two rams.
4 And Aaron and his sons thou shalt bring unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and shalt wash them with water.
5 And thou shalt take the garments, and put upon Aaron the coat, and the robe of the ephod, and the ephod, and the breastplate, and gird him with the curious girdle of the ephod:
6 And thou shalt put the mitre upon his head, and put the holy crown upon the mitre.
7 Then shalt thou take the anointing oil, and pour it upon his head, and anoint him.
8 And thou shalt bring his sons, and put coats upon them.
9 And thou shalt gird them with girdles, Aaron and his sons, and put the bonnets on them: and the priest's office shall be theirs for a perpetual statute: and thou shalt consecrate Aaron and his sons.
10 And thou shalt cause a bullock to be brought before the tabernacle of the congregation: and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands upon the head of the bullock.
11 And thou shalt kill the bullock before the LORD, by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
12 And thou shalt take of the blood of the bullock, and put it upon the horns of the altar with thy finger, and pour all the blood beside the bottom of the altar.
13 And thou shalt take all the fat that covereth the inwards, and the caul that is above the liver, and the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, and burn them upon the altar.
14 But the flesh of the bullock, and his skin, and his dung, shalt thou burn with fire without the camp: it is a sin offering.
15 Thou shalt also take one ram; and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands upon the head of the ram.
16 And thou shalt slay the ram, and thou shalt take his blood, and sprinkle it round about upon the altar.
17 And thou shalt cut the ram in pieces, and wash the inwards of him, and his legs, and put them unto his pieces, and unto his head.
18 And thou shalt burn the whole ram upon the altar: it is a burnt offering unto the LORD: it is a sweet savour, an offering made by fire unto the LORD.
19 And thou shalt take the other ram; and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands upon the head of the ram.
20 Then shalt thou kill the ram, and take of his blood, and put it upon the tip of the right ear of Aaron, and upon the tip of the right ear of his sons, and upon the thumb of their right hand, and upon the great toe of their right foot, and sprinkle the blood upon the altar round about.
21 And thou shalt take of the blood that is upon the altar, and of the anointing oil, and sprinkle it upon Aaron, and upon his garments, and upon his sons, and upon the garments of his sons with him: and he shall be hallowed, and his garments, and his sons, and his sons' garments with him.
22 Also thou shalt take of the ram the fat and the rump, and the fat that covereth the inwards, and the caul above the liver, and the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, and the right shoulder; for it is a ram of consecration:
23 And one loaf of bread, and one cake of oiled bread, and one wafer out of the basket of the unleavened bread that is before the LORD:
24 And thou shalt put all in the hands of Aaron, and in the hands of his sons; and shalt wave them for a wave offering before the LORD.
25 And thou shalt receive them of their hands, and burn them upon the altar for a burnt offering, for a sweet savour before the LORD: it is an offering made by fire unto the LORD.
26 And thou shalt take the breast of the ram of Aaron's consecration, and wave it for a wave offering before the LORD: and it shall be thy part.
27 And thou shalt sanctify the breast of the wave offering, and the shoulder of the heave offering, which is waved, and which is heaved up, of the ram of the consecration, even of that which is for Aaron, and of that which is for his sons:
28 And it shall be Aaron's and his sons' by a statute for ever from the children of Israel: for it is an heave offering: and it shall be an heave offering from the children of Israel of the sacrifice of their peace offerings, even their heave offering unto the LORD.
29 And the holy garments of Aaron shall be his sons' after him, to be anointed therein, and to be consecrated in them.
30 And that son that is priest in his stead shall put them on seven days, when he cometh into the tabernacle of the congregation to minister in the holy place.
31 And thou shalt take the ram of the consecration, and seethe his flesh in the holy place.
32 And Aaron and his sons shall eat the flesh of the ram, and the bread that is in the basket, by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
33 And they shall eat those things wherewith the atonement was made, to consecrate and to sanctify them: but a stranger shall not eat thereof, because they are holy.
34 And if ought of the flesh of the consecrations, or of the bread, remain unto the morning, then thou shalt burn the remainder with fire: it shall not be eaten, because it is holy.
35 And thus shalt thou do unto Aaron, and to his sons, according to all things which I have commanded thee: seven days shalt thou consecrate them.
36 And thou shalt offer every day a bullock for a sin offering for atonement: and thou shalt cleanse the altar, when thou hast made an atonement for it, and thou shalt anoint it, to sanctify it.
37 Seven days thou shalt make an atonement for the altar, and sanctify it; and it shall be an altar most holy: whatsoever toucheth the altar shall be holy.
38 Now this is that which thou shalt offer upon the altar; two lambs of the first year day by day continually.
39 The one lamb thou shalt offer in the morning; and the other lamb thou shalt offer at even:
40 And with the one lamb a tenth deal of flour mingled with the fourth part of an hin of beaten oil; and the fourth part of an hin of wine for a drink offering.
41 And the other lamb thou shalt offer at even, and shalt do thereto according to the meat offering of the morning, and according to the drink offering thereof, for a sweet savour, an offering made by fire unto the LORD.
42 This shall be a continual burnt offering throughout your generations at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the LORD: where I will meet you, to speak there unto thee.
43 And there I will meet with the children of Israel, and the tabernacle shall be sanctified by my glory.
44 And I will sanctify the tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar: I will sanctify also both Aaron and his sons, to minister to me in the priest's office.
45 And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will be their God.
46 And they shall know that I am the LORD their God, that brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, that I may dwell among them: I am the LORD their God.

EXODUS 30:1-10
1 And thou shalt make an altar to burn incense upon: of shittim wood shalt thou make it.
2 A cubit shall be the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof; foursquare shall it be: and two cubits shall be the height thereof: the horns thereof shall be of the same.
3 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, the top thereof, and the sides thereof round about, and the horns thereof; and thou shalt make unto it a crown of gold round about.
4 And two golden rings shalt thou make to it under the crown of it, by the two corners thereof, upon the two sides of it shalt thou make it; and they shall be for places for the staves to bear it withal.
5 And thou shalt make the staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold.
6 And thou shalt put it before the vail that is by the ark of the testimony, before the mercy seat that is over the testimony, where I will meet with thee.
7 And Aaron shall burn thereon sweet incense every morning: when he dresseth the lamps, he shall burn incense upon it.
8 And when Aaron lighteth the lamps at even, he shall burn incense upon it, a perpetual incense before the LORD throughout your generations.
9 Ye shall offer no strange incense thereon, nor burnt sacrifice, nor meat offering; neither shall ye pour drink offering thereon.
10 And Aaron shall make an atonement upon the horns of it once in a year with the blood of the sin offering of atonements: once in the year shall he make atonement upon it throughout your generations: it is most holy unto the LORD.

EZEKIEL 43:10-27
10 Thou son of man, shew the house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities: and let them measure the pattern.
11 And if they be ashamed of all that they have done, shew them the form of the house, and the fashion thereof, and the goings out thereof, and the comings in thereof, and all the forms thereof, and all the ordinances thereof, and all the forms thereof, and all the laws thereof: and write it in their sight, that they may keep the whole form thereof, and all the ordinances thereof, and do them.
12 This is the law of the house; Upon the top of the mountain the whole limit thereof round about shall be most holy. Behold, this is the law of the house.
13 And these are the measures of the altar after the cubits: The cubit is a cubit and an hand breadth; even the bottom shall be a cubit, and the breadth a cubit, and the border thereof by the edge thereof round about shall be a span: and this shall be the higher place of the altar.
14 And from the bottom upon the ground even to the lower settle shall be two cubits, and the breadth one cubit; and from the lesser settle even to the greater settle shall be four cubits, and the breadth one cubit.
15 So the altar shall be four cubits; and from the altar and upward shall be four horns.
16 And the altar shall be twelve cubits long, twelve broad, square in the four squares thereof.
17 And the settle shall be fourteen cubits long and fourteen broad in the four squares thereof; and the border about it shall be half a cubit; and the bottom thereof shall be a cubit about; and his stairs shall look toward the east.
18 And he said unto me, Son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD; These are the ordinances of the altar in the day when they shall make it, to offer burnt offerings thereon, and to sprinkle blood thereon.
19 And thou shalt give to the priests the Levites that be of the seed of Zadok, which approach unto me, to minister unto me, saith the Lord GOD, a young bullock for a sin offering.
20 And thou shalt take of the blood thereof, and put it on the four horns of it, and on the four corners of the settle, and upon the border round about: thus shalt thou cleanse and purge it.
21 Thou shalt take the bullock also of the sin offering, and he shall burn it in the appointed place of the house, without the sanctuary.
22 And on the second day thou shalt offer a kid of the goats without blemish for a sin offering; and they shall cleanse the altar, as they did cleanse it with the bullock.
23 When thou hast made an end of cleansing it, thou shalt offer a young bullock without blemish, and a ram out of the flock without blemish.
24 And thou shalt offer them before the LORD, and the priests shall cast salt upon them, and they shall offer them up for a burnt offering unto the LORD.
25 Seven days shalt thou prepare every day a goat for a sin offering: they shall also prepare a young bullock, and a ram out of the flock, without blemish.
26 Seven days shall they purge the altar and purify it; and they shall consecrate themselves.
27 And when these days are expired, it shall be, that upon the eighth day, and so forward, the priests shall make your burnt offerings upon the altar, and your peace offerings; and I will accept you, saith the Lord GOD.

NEW TESTAMENT PORTION

PHILIPPIANS 4:10-20
10 But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me hath flourished again; wherein ye were also careful, but ye lacked opportunity.
11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.
13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
14 Notwithstanding ye have well done, that ye did communicate with my affliction.
15 Now ye Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but ye only.
16 For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity.
17 Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.
18 But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, wellpleasing to God.
19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
20 Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
