Clinton: TSA Policies To Be Reviewed After Humiliating Pat Down Of Indian Diplomat Paul Joseph Watson Infowars.com December 10, 2010
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKYun5AL4mY&feature=player_embedded

A humiliating TSA pat down that left Indian Ambassador to the United States livid and insistent that she would never return to America has prompted Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to promise a review of TSA policies in the aftermath of a nationwide revolt against invasive airport security measures.At the height of the TSA backlash last month, Clinton herself told CBS News that the pat down procedures were so invasive that she would personally want to avoid them.Now she has been forced to promise an inquiry into measures that led to Indian diplomat Meera Shankar being confined to a glass cage before being invasively groped by TSA staff in full public view, after Indian authorities demanded an apology for her treatment.We obviously are concerned about it, Clinton told reporters in Washington.Although the matter had not been raised when she met with Shankar on Tuesday, she said, certainly we will be looking into it and not only responding to the Indian foreign minister but also reviewing the policies, reports CNS News.

As we reported yesterday, eyewitnesses described Shankar’s fury at being humiliated after she specifically asked for the search to be conducted in private. Shankar later reportedly said she was livid and refused to ever return to America, a strong statement for someone who is India’s Ambassador to the United States.Shankar was about to board a flight to Baltimore after attending an event at Mississippi State University.She is a very strong woman, but you could see in her face that she was humiliated, Tan Tsai, a research associate at MSU’s International Security Studies center who witnessed the screening, told The Clarion-Ledger. The Indian culture is very modest.The way they pat them down, it was so humiliating, Tsai added, Anybody who passed by could see it.Janos Radvanyi, Chair of the MSU’s International Studies Department was quoted as saying, She said, I will never come back here. We are sending her a letter of apology,As a result of the massive and sustained backlash against invasive airport security measures that are tantamount to sexual molestation, TSA chief John Pistole stated on several occasions that the pat down procedures would be investigated and probably amended. However, with more cases of TSA abuse pouring in on a daily basis, there is no indication that any changes to the policy are imminent.The TSA has still failed to respond to a FOIA request filed by former Congressman Bob Barr’s Liberty Guard organization, which seeks to clarify why the agency relaxed the pat down procedures and restricted use of naked body scanners over the Thanksgiving holiday period, in what many charge was a blatant and hypocritical ploy to diffuse the effectiveness of a national opt out day protest.

Your Toxic Tap Water - You’ll never look at tap water the same way again Paul Joseph Watson Prison Planet.com Thursday, December 9, 2010

Dr. Paul Connett, Professor of Chemistry at St. Lawrence University in New York, gives a damning interview on the history of water fluoridation, the collusion of major industries to put certified toxic waste into your drinking water, and why government health authorities refuse to conduct scientific studies into the dangers of fluoridation. After watching this video, you will never look at tap water the same way again.Connett describes how he initially thought people who opposed fluoridation were a bunch of whackos, before conducting his own research which found that sodium fluoride was a toxic substance that contributed to a wide array of health defects. Heavy industry is barred from dumping this toxic waste into the sea by international law, but being able to sell it enables them to remove its hazardous characteristic and it becomes a product, explains Connett, polluting not only our water supply but also toothpaste and thousands of different foods.Connett provides a detail run down of the many health problems caused by fluoride consumption, including dental fluorosis, which the Centers For Disease Control just recently announced was a problem for 41 per cent of children aged 12-15 in the United States, clearly indicating that children are being over-exposed to fluoride and that this is affecting other tissues and organs in the body, including bone disorders, a problem also wreaking havoc amongst adults in the United States as one in three now suffer from arthritis, which again is being caused by a build-up of toxic fluoride in the body. Connett also points to fluoride’s connection with thyroid disorders.

There have now been over 100 studies involving animals which show that fluoride damages the brain, stresses Connett, which is a particular concern for newborn babies who are susceptible to fluoride build up because of their weak blood-brain barrier. Connett cites numerous studies which prove a link between moderate exposure to fluoride and lowered IQ in children.Fluoride’s impact on the pineal gland, which is a piece of brain tissue that sits in-between the two hemispheres of the brain, is key because fluoride attracts to this gland like a magnet. Researchers have found through animal studies that fluoride lowers the ability of the pineal gland to produce the hormone melatonin, which in turn shortens the time it takes to reach puberty, correlating with studies of fluoridated communities that show girls are on average menstruating 5 months earlier than those in non-fluoridated communities. Children are entering puberty at increasingly early stages and this is causing widespread concern, but health authorities have made no effort whatsoever to conduct any studies regarding this development and its link to fluoride.Health authorities in western countries, particularly the United States, are deliberately covering-up the deadly threat posed by fluoride by refusing to conduct any studies into its impact on health, as Connett explains. They have chosen to protect the sanctity of the method of mass fluoridation over and above protecting the health of babies and children. Connett emphasizes the fact that there is virtually no difference in the health of teeth between people in fluoridated areas and non-fluoridated areas, proving that there are no health benefits at all that can be achieved through fluoridating the water supply.

Connett underscores how out of control health authorities in the United States have become, putting out studies that claim injecting mercury into a baby’s bloodstream through vaccines is perfectly safe and good for babies’ brains, while regulating mercury emissions in every other field because it is highly toxic. They have taken a similar approach in the fluoride debate, issuing studies that claim sodium fluoride, a toxic waste which has been heavily regulated in the industrial sphere for decades, has many beneficial health advantages when ingested into the human body. This is fostering widespread distrust in government health agencies because scientists involved with them are overseeing a sickening cover-up of the fluoride issue, states Connett.This is a highly detailed and in-depth one hour study of the case against fluoride and it demolishes the notion that fluoride has any rightful place in our public water supply.

ECB tells leaders they must solve euro crisis
By Noah Barkin - DEC 10,10

BERLIN (Reuters) – European central bankers told euro zone governments on Friday not to count on the ECB to solve the single currency bloc's debt crisis alone as the leaders of Germany and France met to plot strategy before a key EU summit.Pressure on high-deficit euro members like Portugal and Spain has eased slightly over the past week after the ECB bought government bonds in a thin end-of-year market, pushing down the borrowing costs of countries on Europe's southern periphery.But to prevent further contagion, following their agreement to bail out Ireland last month, European leaders may need to send a strong signal to skeptical investors when they gather in Brussels for a December 16-17 summit.ECB Executive Board Member Gertrude Tumpel-Gugerell wrote in a column in Austria's Format magazine that the bank's bond buys had been successful because they gave countries time to prepare and decide on budgetary measures.Meanwhile, Bank of Italy Governor and ECB Governing Council member Mario Draghi told the Financial Times that responsibility for dealing with the crisis ultimately lay with euro zone governments and the ECB could go only so far.I'm only too aware that we could easily cross the line and lose everything we have, lose independence, and basically violate the (EU) treaty, said Draghi, a leading candidate to replace Jean-Claude Trichet as ECB president.German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Nicolas Sarkozy met on Friday in the southwestern German city of Freiburg to agree a common stance ahead of the EU summit and were due to hold a joint news conference at 1 p.m. (1200 GMT).Ahead of their meeting, Sarkozy's office voiced support for Merkel's stance against issuing joint euro zone bonds -- an idea pushed by Eurogroup President Jean-Claude Juncker and Italian Finance Minister Giulio Tremonti -- or increasing the size of the bloc's stability fund to stem the crisis.German coalition leaders who met on Thursday evening rejected the euro bond idea as unacceptable.There was a broad consensus that Eurobonds as Mr. Juncker has proposed them are out of the question for us, Hans-Peter Dietrich, a leader of the Bavarian Christian Social Union (CSU) in parliament told reporters after the meeting.

EURO STEADIES, SPREADS EDGE UP

The euro, which fell to a 10-week low under $1.30 late last month as the euro crisis deepened, was steady at $1.3260. The risk premiums investors demand to hold Portuguese and Spanish debt instead of German benchmarks edged higher on the day.
Spanish Economy Minister Elena Salgado said in Madrid that she expected the country's cost of borrowing to rise at a bond auction scheduled for next week, but said this was a temporary phenomenon and not alarming.It's true that we might have to pay a little more for bond issues than we have in the past. For that reason we have said we will reduce the volume until the markets stabilize, she said.Madrid is due to sell 10-year and 15-year bonds on the same day the EU summit starts next week.

The summit is expected to finalize plans to introduce a permanent rescue mechanism for the euro zone to replace the 750 billion euro European Financial Stability Facility (EFSF) that it set up in May after bailing out Greece.German demands that the new mechanism include the possibility of so-called haircuts for holders of euro zone sovereign debt has been blamed for exacerbating the crisis.But ECB Governing Council member Ewald Nowotny said on Friday that it was important for private investors to share the costs of any future bailouts.I think it is important to have a permanent safety net, a permanent instrument, Nowotny, who also head the Austrian Central Bank, told reporters. I think it is also correct that in this whole European stability mechanism the aspect of private investor involvement is covered.Irish Finance Minister Brian Lenihan told parliament that Dublin would start tapping an 85 billion euro EU/IMF bailout from early next year to meet its sovereign borrowing requirements.Data released on Friday showed Ireland's central bank had lent the country's crippled banks nearly 45 billion euros in special funding up until the end of November, a 10 billion euro increase on the prior month.

Oil rises to near $89 ahead of OPEC meeting By Alex Kennedy, Associated Press – Fri Dec 10, 3:07 am ET

SINGAPORE – Oil prices rose to near $89 a barrel Friday in Asia as traders looked to this weekend's OPEC meeting for any changes to the cartel's crude production policy.
Benchmark oil for January delivery was up 40 cents to $88.77 a barrel at late afternoon Singapore time in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract added 9 cents to settle at $88.37 on Thursday.Analysts say officials of the 12-nation Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries will likely leave the group's production quotas unchanged at Saturday's meeting in Ecuador.OPEC, which is responsible for 35 percent of global oil production, has not changed its output quotas since late 2008. Last month, Saudi oil minister Ali Naimi said that oil between $70 and $90 per barrel was tolerable for consumers.Some analysts are concerned that sluggish economic growth in developed countries may not justify high prices for commodities such as oil, which reached a two-year high earlier this week.

The threat of bubbles is greatest in commodity markets, Capital Economics said in a report. If commodity prices are going to be sustained at these levels, final demand from consumers has to be consistently strong too.Since the major developed economies are only gradually recovering from recession, this is placing an awful lot of weight on the rebound in emerging economies.In other Nymex trading in January contracts, heating oil rose 1.5 cents to $2.48 a gallon, gasoline futures added 0.2 cent to $2.34 a gallon and natural gas slipped 0.5 cent to $4.43 per 1,000 cubic feet.In London, Brent crude rose 50 cents to $91.49 a barrel on the ICE Futures exchange.

Climate talks intensify; negotiators see progress By CHARLES J. HANLEY, AP Special Correspondent – Fri Dec 10, 3:50 am ET

CANCUN, Mexico – Negotiators reported progress Thursday at the U.N. climate conference, setting the stage for agreements on a support fund for poorer nations and other steps easing global warming's impact. The complex talks stretched deep into the night to try to meet a Friday deadline.Once again this year the annual negotiations under the U.N. climate treaty won't produce an overarching, legally binding deal to slash emissions of carbon dioxide and other global warming gases. From the start, the talks focused instead on a package of secondary items, including setting up the green fund for developing countries.In that and in a half-dozen other areas, world environment ministers and other delegates were still haggling late Thursday over the wording of texts. But the conference president, Mexican Foreign Secretary Patricia Espinosa, sounded an upbeat note.The reports I have gotten are positive, she told a late-night meeting of parties to the 193-nation treaty. A broad and balanced package of decisions is, indeed, within our grasp.On the key issue of a green fund, Bangladesh's state minister for the environment, Mohammed Hasan Mahmud, reported to the session that we have narrowed down our gaps and there is convergence on establishing the fund, but details remained to be resolved.Earlier, Akira Yamada of Japan, whose government's resistance to committing to future emissions cuts has slowed the talks, predicted the conference might have to extend into Saturday.

Yamada did say he believed parties could reach agreement. The talks were difficult, he said, but we are engaging in how we can find good wording which can accommodate not only Japan but other countries.As some 15,000 delegates, environmentalists, business leaders, journalists and others met at this Caribbean resort, carbon dioxide and other global warming gases, byproducts of industry, vehicles and agriculture, continued to accumulate in the atmosphere, barely abated by modest emission reductions undertaken thus far.Scientists say temperatures could rise by up to 6.4 degrees Celsius (11.5 degrees Fahrenheit) in this century without deeper cuts, leading to serious damage to coastlines, human health, agriculture and economies in general.We all will leave Cancun knowing very clearly that we have not very significantly changed the time window in which the world will be able to address climate change, Achim Steiner, the head of the U.N. Environment Program, told reporters.Bolivia's President Evo Morales, addressing the full conference, cited families already being deprived of water because of warming and drought, and islanders facing the loss of homes from seas rising from global warming.If governments shun strong, mandatory emissions reductions, then we will be responsible for ecocide,which is equivalent to genocide because this would be an affront to mankind as a whole, the Bolivian leader said.Last year's climate summit in Copenhagen, Denmark, was supposed to have produced a global pact under which richer nations, and possibly some poorer ones, would be required to rein in greenhouse gases.

That agreement would have succeeded the 1997 Kyoto Protocol, which mandated modest emissions reductions by developed nations that expire in 2012. Alone in the industrial world, the U.S. rejected Kyoto, complaining that emerging economies, such as China and India, should also have taken on obligations.The 2009 summit produced instead a Copenhagen Accord under which the U.S., China and more than 80 other nations made voluntary pledges to reduce emissions, or at least to limit their growth.In a sign of the sensitivity of even voluntary pledges, the U.S. and China were squabbling in Cancun over an effort to anchor them in a fresh U.N. document. The Chinese want separate listings to maintain a distinction between developing and developed countries, and the Americans want a single integrated list.Japan, meanwhile, has resisted language that would commit it to a second period of Kyoto-style emissions reductions beyond 2012.Yamada said the 37 industrialized countries that ratified Kyoto now account for only 27 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions. It's time for others — the U.S. and China included — to join in mandatory cutbacks, he said. For an ultimate goal, we are aiming for a single legally binding instrument, in which all major emitters participate, the Japanese negotiator told reporters.The European Union, meanwhile, joined with small island states and Costa Rica in proposing that parties commit to taking up a legally binding instrument at next year's climate conference in Durban, South Africa.The U.S. delegation also seeks detailed provisions for monitoring, reporting and verification, called MRV, of how China and other developing nations are fulfilling their voluntary Copenhagen pledges. A leading environmentalist here accused American negotiators of blocking a decision on the green fund in the kind of brinkmanship that costs lives.

The United States continues to hold these important decisions hostage in an effort to get what they want on transparency and MRV. This is unacceptable, said Jeremy Hobbs, executive director of Oxfam International.The green fund would help developing nations buy advanced clean-energy technology to reduce their own emissions, and to adapt to climate change, by building seawalls against rising seas, for example, and upgrading farming practices to compensate for shifting rain patterns. Under the Copenhagen Accord, richer nations promised to provide $100 billion a year for the fund by 2020.

There was absolute chaos on the 401 today after a 17 vehicle pile up near Woodstock. The size and scope of the crash forced police to divert traffic and kept emergency crews busy for hours.I had a pickup truck fish tail right in front of me, said truck driver Willy Sanford.I'm just lucky there was nobody beside me and I got around him.
Sanford spent 5 hours stuck on the road as traffic in both directions came to a halt. Winter weather caused visibility to disappear in the blink of an eye. It's just been weird situations of white outs coming up with snow squalls, said OPP Constable Michelle Murphy.Three people have been taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries. The OPP says there have been more than 500 collisions on the roads since the storm began on Sunday.

Heavy rains flood towns in eastern Australia
– Thu Dec 9, 7:54 pm ET

SYDNEY – Australia's attorney general declared 45 communities along the country's east coast disaster areas Friday, following weeks of drenching rains that have submerged homes, destroyed crops and killed four people.Despite years of drought, December's heavy rains have brought misery to the region. Thousands of people have been forced to evacuate their homes, and officials have been scrambling to pluck stranded motorists from cars and surround vulnerable homes and businesses with sandbags.This was one of the most significant weather events in this state for a lot of years, said South Australian State Emergency Services Assistant Chief Officer Matthew Maywald.The relentless weather claimed its fourth victim Thursday. A man in his 50s was found in a car that had been swept into a creek in central Queensland state, police said. He was the third motorist in Queensland to die in the recent flooding after rushing water swept their cars away.The body of a woman in New South Wales was found in water about 1,600 feet (500 meters) from her abandoned car Tuesday, after police said she tried to walk away when the vehicle stalled on a flooded road.Attorney General Robert McClelland declared 45 communities in Queensland and New South Wales natural disaster zones, allowing them access to federal disaster funds.Four inches (10 centimeters) of rain fell on the southern New South Wales city of Queanbeyan in one night, causing the community's swollen river to overflow and flood the downtown area.This has been the most significant flooding in Queanbeyan in 30 years, Emergency Services Minister Steve Whan said.Some communities were getting relief in the form of drier weather Friday, but meteorologists were predicting continued heavy rain for other areas that could lead to more flash flooding.The New South Wales State Emergency Service has received nearly 2,300 calls for help in the past two weeks.

Great Lakes storms bring snow, colder air ahead
By Marissa Rosenbaum – Thu Dec 9, 4:25 pm ET

ERIE, Pennsylvania (Reuters) – Winter storms across the Great Lakes blew snow and cold temperatures across the region on Thursday, with nearly five feet of snowfall in some places and even colder air yet to come.Syracuse, New York was buried under 43.2 inches of snow that fell over four days, just short of the upstate city's four-day record set in 1966, AccuWeather forecasters said.Randolph, a small town in southwestern New York, had 59 inches of snowfall since Saturday morning, according to the National Weather Service.It's pretty much been snowing here nonstop since the beginning of the month, said Weather Service meteorologist David Thomas in Buffalo, New York.Randolph was already damaged by a tornado over the summer, Thomas said.They're struggling down there. The weather has not been kind to them, he said.

Erie, Pennsylvania was socked with as much as 20 inches of snow in some sections, causing dozens of accidents, most of them minor, said Police Lieutenant Kirk Werner.
The snowfall took some residents by surprise, he said.People are used to this weather, I just think it came a little early this year, he said.Erie's workers were running snowplows nonstop, said Borough Chief Peter Petrianni.When I started here in 1975, we had 125 people. Now we have 43, and we didn't lose any streets, I can tell you that, he said, citing attrition and budget cuts. We're down to the bare bone. We have 43 guys for 315 miles of streets.Elsewhere, Cleveland and Rochester, New York were blanketed by lake-effect snow, with several more inches yet to come, forecasters said.Lake effect snow occurs when cold air moves across warmer lake waters. Such storms can dump heavy snowfall when they hit land.A winter weather advisory was issued for much of Wisconsin on Thursday, with up to 4 inches of snow expected to clog the evening rush hour. The precipitation will turn to freezing drizzle before tapering off on Friday, the Weather Service said.A big storm was predicted for the weekend, forecasters said, starting in Iowa and moving to Michigan and western New York.

Further east, the storm will bring sloppy conditions of sleet and freezing rain, they said.Behind the storm, there's going to be strong winds and pretty cold temperatures, Thomas said. We're looking at wind chills well into the negative digits, come Monday and Tuesday.The mercury will be dipping into the teens in Indianapolis, Buffalo, Cleveland, Detroit, Boston, New York City, Philadelphia and Washington, forecasters said.It will be blustery and cold, Thomas said.

Snow causes European travel chaos By Crystal Becerril, Associated Press – Thu Dec 9, 1:36 pm ET

PARIS – Travelers in Paris and Frankfurt slept at the airport after snow and ice caused travel chaos. Pop singer Shakira canceled a concert in Germany, while the French prime minister missed a gala at Moscow's Bolshoi Theater.Many European commuters suffered through traffic jams on slushy streets Thursday, and Scotland even called in the army to clear the snow. Flights out of Paris and Frankfurt were still delayed after bad weather forced the temporary closing of airports a day earlier.Paris, a city of frequent rain, is unprepared for snow. Amid Wednesday's snowfall of 10 centimeters (4 inches), bus service was shut down, traffic backed up, tourists were ushered out the Eiffel Tower and Paris' Charles de Gaulle airport was forced to close for an hour and a half.Shakira canceled a Wednesday night concert in Frankfurt because she couldn't take off from Paris, German news agency DAPD reported.

Concert organizers did not hear of the problem until an hour before the concert, when they had to tell 11,000 fans already gathered in the concert arena to head home. A spokesman for the concert organizers told DAPD that a new date for early 2011will be set soon.Meanwhile, French Prime Minister Francois Fillon missed a special gala by Russian and French dancers at the Bolshoi because of delays leaving France. Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin — no stranger to snow — offered to have the Bolshoi re-run the event in Fillon's honor, the RIA-Novosti news agency said.On Thursday, delays of up to an hour persisted at Charles de Gaulle. Some passengers huddled under blankets after a long night sleeping at the airport.The airport last night was giving out towels, mattresses to sleep on, water, and they were coming around constantly to see if everything was OK, said Lynne Seavor, whose flight home to Britain's East Midlands Airport was delayed by 24 hours.The sun was out Thursday in Paris, melting snow off roofs. Sidewalks were slick, and traffic was still badly disrupted.The Eiffel Tower's first floor reopened to tourists, a day after it was entirely shut down. Officials say they can't use salt there because it could cause damage to the monument.A combination of snow, rain and temperatures hovering right around the freezing point caused traffic chaos in Germany, with hundreds of accidents reported nationwide and scores of miles-long (kilometers-long) traffic jams. One person died in a crash in Rhineland-Palatinate, along the French border.

Airport officials said at least 650 flights were canceled in Germany, including 200 in Berlin and 450 at Frankfurt, whose airport was shut down for four hours overnight.
Air traffic control agency Eurocontrol said Berlin's Schoenefeld airport will be closed for incoming flights until 8 a.m. (0700GMT) on Friday as a result of a shortage of de-icing fluid.Clariant, a Swiss specialty chemicals company that is one of Europe's top makers of the liquid, said the unexpectedly quick onset of wintry conditions had caused shortages across the continent.Winter has set in early and simultaneously across Europe. We even got de-icing requests from Greece today, Clariant spokesman Ulrich Nies said.He said the company's only European production plant for the fluid in southern Germany is operating around the clock — instead of during business hours on regular days — to combat the shortages.Ralf Kunkel, a Berlin airport spokesman, said the shortage of de-icing fluid was unique in the history of the city's airports, and it's absolutely annoying.Scotland, meanwhile, called in the army Thursday to help clear snow and ice after the heaviest snowfall since 1963 paralyzed the country's capital. Edinburgh City Council held talks with the Ministry of Defense and the Scottish government to secure help digging out the capital after up to 30 inches (75 centimeters) of snow in parts of the city left some of its most vulnerable residents unable to leave their homes.Soldiers are to aid residents in the hardest hit parts of Edinburgh and clear sensitive locations, such as hospitals and doctors' offices.The army will also work to remove snow and ice from roads. Parts of the country have not seen a positive temperature reading for nearly two weeks.David Rising and Juergen Baetz in Berlin and Angela Doland in Paris contributed to this report.

An update on the story we had Thursday on a Guelph mother finding a razor blade in a loaf of bread.After investigating a food tampering claim in Guelph, police are now saying a razor blade found in a loaf of bread actually originated from the home. It is believed a child at the residence was responsible.No charges are expected.

NUCLEAR WEAPONS WILL BE USED.

18 And another angel came out from the altar, which had power over fire; and cried with a loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle, saying, Thrust in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for her grapes are fully ripe.
19 And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.
20 And the winepress was trodden without the city,(JERUSALEM) and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.(200 MILES) (THE SIZE OF ISRAEL)

16 For by fire and by his sword will the LORD plead with all flesh: and the slain of the LORD shall be many.
17 They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one tree in the midst, eating swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith the LORD.

North Korea says forced to build nuclear might: sources
– DEC 10,10-18 mins ago

MOSCOW (Reuters) – North Korea's foreign minister said U.S. and South Korean hostility was forcing Pyongyang to strengthen its nuclear deterrent, the Interfax news agency reported on Friday.We believe that until the United States and South Korea stop their hostile and confrontational policy toward the DPRK, it will be absolutely impossible to lift the tension from the Korean Peninsula, Interfax quoted Foreign Minister Pak Ui-chun as saying in an interview.And we are again convinced of the rectitude of our choice in favor of a policy of ... universal strengthening of our defense potential with a focus on nuclear deterrent forces, Pak, due to visit Russia next week for talks, was quoted as saying.Tension increased after the North bombarded a South Korean island last month, killing four people, and revealed advances in its nuclear program opening another route to making an atomic bomb.The bombardment was the first time the North hit a civilian area on South Korean soil since the Korean war.The U.S. and South Korean militaries held large-scale joint exercises days later in a show of force they said was meant to deter Pyongyang from further military actions.

South Korea has vowed to hit back hard if Pyongyang orders a new attack, bolstering defenses in a disputed area and amending rules of engagement to permit the use of fighter jets and bombs.Reclusive North Korea has conducted two nuclear tests -- in 2006 and 2009 -- and is believed to have enough fissile material to make between six and 12 bombs.Russia shares a short border with North Korea, which was a beneficiary of Soviet largesse during the Cold War, but has less influence on Pyongyang than China.As one of the participants in long-stalled six-nation talks aimed at ending the confrontation over North Korea's nuclear program, Russia repeatedly emphasizes that it is crucial for all sides to refrain from military action.(Writing by Steve Gutterman; editing by Mark Heinrich)

Kremlin aide says Medvedev wants second term: report
DEC 10,10

MOSCOW (Reuters) – The Kremlin's top economic aide said he believes President Dmitry Medvedev wants to seek a second term in the 2012 presidential elections, the BBC reported in Russian on Friday.I think it will be clear to anyone who looks carefully at what Dmitry Medvedev is doing, that he wants to stay on for a second term, Arkady Dvorkovich was quoted as telling the BBC in an interview, reported in Russian.

Medvedev and Prime Minister Vladimir Putin have both said they will make a decision together on who will run in the elections closer to the vote.Dvorkovich added that he believed they still have not made the final decision.Putin served as president from 2000 to 2008 and dominates what officials call a ruling tandem with Medvedev, the protege he steered into the Kremlin when a constitutional limit prevented him from running for a third term.Many analysts and diplomats expect Putin to return to the Kremlin in 2012, and polls show most Russians believe he is still just as powerful as he was while president.Putin and Medvedev say they consult on a regular basis and agree on most issues. Signs of significant discord between them could create uncertainty and undermine investor confidence.(Reporting by Amie Ferris-Rotman; editing by Steve Gutterman/David Stamp)

16 And saying, Alas, alas that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls!
17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,
18 And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city!
19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.
20 Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.
21 And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.

US official: nuke deal with Russia to boost ties By VLADIMIR ISACHENKOV, Associated Press - DEC 10,10

MOSCOW – The United States and Russia will be able to significantly expand cooperation in civilian nuclear energy thanks to a new accord that has sailed through Congress, a senior U.S. official said Friday.U.S. Deputy Energy Secretary Daniel Poneman told The Associated Press that the framework pact — known as the 123 agreement because its requirements are set in section 123 of the U.S. Atomic Energy Act — would help boost nonproliferation efforts and create new business opportunities.It's going to allow the U.S. and Russia to deepen our existing cooperation on nonproliferation and nuclear security... it's going to help to create opportunities to bring nuclear power cooperation to a new level he said.It's going to provide, I think in both countries, opportunities for industry to cooperate, create prosperity, create jobs, create energy.The deal did not require congressional approval, but Congress could have rejected it within 90 days of continuous session — a period that elapsed Thursday without a vote of disapproval.Poneman said the pact would come into effect after a formal exchange of notes.Sergei Novikov, a spokesman for Russia's nuclear agency Rosatom, also hailed the new pact as a key vehicle for boosting U.S.-Russian civilian nuclear cooperation.This will allow us to pursue nuclear cycle projects, including uranium enrichment and production of uranium fuel, he told the AP. Another important prospective area is joint work on next generation nuclear reactors, including fast neutron reactors.

The U.S. has similar agreements with a few dozen of other nations, but the deal with Russia had long been hampered by political obstacles. George W. Bush submitted a deal with Russia to Congress in May 2008, but withdrew it a few months later over the August 2008 Russian-Georgian war.President Barack Obama resubmitted the agreement to Congress in May as part of his efforts to reset ties with Russia that also included the New START — a pivotal nuclear arms reduction treaty signed in April.Obama has insisted completion of the new treaty is a national security imperative, and insisted it must be dealt with during Congress' current short year-ending session. Republicans have been reluctant to act quickly on the arms pact, and the larger Republican minority in the incoming Senate could make its ratification prospects even bleaker.Unlike the arms reduction treaty, the civilian nuclear deal passed through Congress without much problem. Two draft resolutions of disapproval were introduced but not approved.The 123 agreement, however, has drawn strong protests from Russian environmentalists who have voiced concern that the deal would open the door for Russia to import spent nuclear fuel from the U.S. for reprocessing and storage. They warned that the deal would also allow Russia to take spent fuel from U.S.-built nuclear reactors in such countries as Japan, South Korea and Taiwan and turn Russia into the world's radioactive dumpsite.Poneman dismissed such fears on Friday, saying that the U.S. is still mulling over ways of handling its spent nuclear fuel. I don't really see this sort of concern as having any validity, he said.Novikov also rejected the environmentalists' claims, saying that his agency would only accept spent fuel from Soviet- and Russian-built nuclear reactors for reprocessing and storage.A 2001 Russian law allowed imports of spent nuclear fuel, through which officials estimated the nation could earn up to $20 billion over 10 years. Novikov, however, said Rosatom has since decided such imports would be commercially unfeasible in the absence of viable technologies of waste disposal.

Even before the new deal, Russia and the United States have cooperated extensively on nuclear nonproliferation issues, including an effort to return fuel from nuclear reactors built outside the Soviet-union to Russia for reprocessing to reduce the danger of highly enriched uranium falling into the wrong hands.Earlier this week, Poneman and Rosatom chief Sergei Kiriyenko signed a document on conducting feasibility studies for converting Russian research nuclear reactors to using low-enriched uranium. Russia is the world's largest exporter of uranium fuel, and it also has become the biggest single supplier of uranium fuel to U.S. nuclear plants. That fuel is extracted from old nuclear weapons and diluted for commercial use under a deal dubbed Megatons for Megawatts that expires in 2013. Starting from 2014, Russia's state-run uranium export company Tekhsnabexport will be allowed to sell enriched uranium fuel directly to U.S. utilities. Novikov said the company has already signed $5 billion worth of contracts for the post-2013 period.

SKorea says reunification with North not long off By KIM KWANG-TAE and FOSTER KLUG, Associated Press - DEC 10,10

SEOUL, South Korea – South Korea's president has declared that the reunification of Korea is drawing near — a surprising statement at a time of soaring tensions on the divided peninsula.While a single Korea is the stated goal of both the communist North and the democratic South, it has seemed a faraway dream this year, which saw an alleged North Korean attack on a South Korean warship, an announcement by Pyongyang that it is expanding its nuclear programs and, most recently, the shelling of a South Korean island two weeks ago.In the wake of the Nov. 23 artillery assault on the South's Yeonpyeong Island, both sides have raised the temperature on the peninsula by trading angry barbs and threats of retribution. South Korean President Lee Myung-bak has not shied away from tough rhetoric, as he looked to deflect criticism that his military's response to the shelling was too weak.But twice this week, during a trip to Malaysia, he has expressed optimism that reunification is not long off.

North Korea now remains one of the most belligerent nations in the world, Lee said in the interview published Friday in The Star, a Malaysian newspaper. But, he added, it's a fact that the two Koreas will have to coexist peacefully and, in the end, realize reunification.In a speech Thursday night, Lee made similar remarks, saying that North Koreans have become increasingly aware that the South is better off. He did not elaborate on how their knowledge has expanded, but he said it was an important change that no one can stop.Reunification is drawing near, Lee said, according to the president's website.He also called on China to urge ally Pyongyang to embrace the same economic openness that has led millions of Chinese out of poverty — and said that North Korean economic independence was the key to reunification.Lee didn't give a specific timeframe for the reunification of Korea, which was divided after the end of Japanese rule and officially remains in a state of war because the Koreas' 1950-53 conflict ended with an armistice, not a peace treaty.It wasn't clear why Lee was making a push for reunification now. South Korean leaders often call for a peaceful reunification with the North. There is in Seoul, however, a wariness of the huge social and economic costs associated with absorbing the impoverished North.North Korea also has called repeatedly for reunification, but it imagines integration under its authoritarian political system. It has shown no sign that it would allow any reunification that results in its absorption by the richer South.

It was long assumed that China, the North's main ally, would also pose an obstacle to reunification under Seoul's rule. But a recently leaked U.S. diplomatic cable recounts a conversation between the U.S. ambassador in Seoul and a high-ranking South Korean official, who told the American that China has largely resigned itself to such an integration.Beijing would be comfortable with a reunified Korea controlled by Seoul and anchored to the U.S. in a 'benign alliance' as long as Korea was not hostile toward China, the official is quoted as saying in the cabled published by WikiLeaks.Economic opportunities in a reunified Korea could further induce Chinese acquiescence, but China would be unlikely to accept the presence of U.S. troops north of the demilitarized zone that currently forms the North-South border, the South Korean official said, according to the cable.In August, Lee said South Korea should prepare for reunification by studying the possibility of adopting a reunification tax aimed at raising money for the costs of integration.Lee proposed a three-stage reunification process in which the two Koreas would first form a peace community involving denuclearization of the peninsula, then an economic community for cross-border economic integration, and eventually a community of the Korean nation with no institutional barriers between them.Paik Hak-soon, an analyst at the private Sejong Institute think tank near Seoul, said the Koreas should follow the German model of reunification. But, he said, that model is nearly impossible when tensions are rising.Germans in the west largely footed the bill for the reunification of the two sides after the collapse of communism, bringing the overall infrastructure of the former East Germany up to a standard similar to that in the west. A tax first levied in 1991 has gone to improve roads, schools and other essentials in the east.

Reunification through the German model could cause enormous burdens, but it could also bring economic benefits, said Yoon Deok-min, an analyst at the state-run Institute of Foreign Affairs and National Security in Seoul. The North has abundant natural resources and a relatively well-educated and cheap labor force.Already, the South is tapping into those resources at Kaesong, a joint industrial park in the North where South Korean-run factories employ North Korean workers. The park, an important symbol of inter-Korean cooperation, has continued to operate despite the current tensions.In The Star interview, Lee said North Korea should open its doors for economic growth as Beijing has done. I hope China will actively encourage the North to choose the same route that it has taken.Ultimately, the foundation for reunification will be laid when North Korea becomes economically independent, Lee said.

3 A fire(NUCLEAR BOMB) devoureth before them;(RUSSIA-ARABS) and behind them a flame burneth: the land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing shall escape them.
20 But I will remove far off from you the northern army,(RUSSIA,MUSLIMS) and will drive him into a land barren and desolate, with his face toward the east sea, and his hinder part toward the utmost sea, and his stink shall come up, and his ill savour shall come up, because he hath done great things.(SIBERIAN DESERT)
30 And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.(NUCLEAR BOMB)
31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.

No clear successor should Abbas leave the stage By MOHAMMED DARAGHMEH, Associated Press – Thu Dec 9, 2:46 pm ET

RAMALLAH, West Bank – Washington's Mideast peace efforts are in trouble as it is, but an additional complication is often overlooked: Should 76-year-old Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, a heavy smoker prone to threats of resignation, leave office, there's no designated successor and no agreement on how to choose one.Having a Palestinian leader opposed to violence is key to U.S. policy in the region, and Abbas has filled that role for the past six years. A turbulent transition could seriously weaken any new leader.The issue of succession is so sensitive it's rarely discussed openly by the Palestinian elite, and Abbas is touchy about it.When a U.S. newspaper wrote about the leadership ambitions of key players in his Fatah movement, the official Palestinian news agency ran a scathing statement directed at one of those mentioned in the article, former Palestinian envoy to the U.N., Nasser al-Qidwa.Abbas also went after another Fatah prince, Mohammed Dahlan, stripping him of privileges and shutting down his TV station earlier this month, after Dahlan criticized the president in meetings with activists.Abbas aides play down concerns about his health, prompted by his smoking and recent weight gain. They say he's fine and that getting dental implants was his only recent medical procedure. Occasional threats to step down are simply attempts to create leverage vis-a-vis Israel and the U.S., they say.

At the root of the succession problem is the split of the Palestinian territories between Fatah, which now controls the West Bank, and the Islamic militant Hamas movement, which wrested control of the Gaza Strip from Abbas in 2007.Fatah and Hamas have been unable to reconcile, and their rivalry has prevented presidential and legislative elections, which should have taken place by this year.Abbas was elected to a four-year term in 2005. The Hamas-dominated parliament stopped functioning long ago, in part because Israel arrested many Hamas legislators.Palestinian law calls for the speaker to serve in a 60-day caretaker capacity until elections to replace a president. This arrangement was used in the transition from Yasser Arafat, who died in November 2004, to Abbas two months later. However, the current parliament speaker is from Hamas, and it's unlikely Fatah would agree to let Hamas take over the presidency, even temporarily.Elections also are seen as improbable since they are tied to elusive reconciliation. In this case, Fatah would have to appoint a successor, though the nominee would be vulnerable to claims by Hamas and others that he has no legitimacy.Fatah, which has long dominated Palestinian affairs, has been in disarray since it lost parliament elections to Hamas in 2006, with voters punishing the former ruling party for arrogance and mismanagement. Fatah's troubles have been compounded by its failure to establish an independent Palestinian state. If elections were held, it's not certain Fatah would defeat Hamas.The most popular Fatah leader of the middle generation is Marwan Barghouti, who is in his late 40s, but he is serving a life sentence in Israel for his role in the armed Palestinian uprising earlier this decade.

Among the remaining contenders, rivalry is so intense they might be unable to agree on a consensus candidate or settle on a weak one.Fatah suffers a leadership crisis, said Palestinian analyst Khalil Shekaki.So far it hasn't presented a No. 2 leader.
Abbas wanted a vice president and early in his term called for creating such a position, said an aide, Nabil Shaath. However, once the parliament stopped functioning, it was no longer possible to make the necessary changes in the law, Shaath said.Abbas hasn't openly designated a favorite in Fatah, though he has given a push to chief negotiator Saeb Erekat, perhaps his most loyal aide. Abbas lobbied for Erekat in Fatah elections in 2009 and gave him a coveted seat in the PLO Executive Committee, a key decision-making body.Another name being floated by political insiders is al-Qidwa, whose international experience at the U.N. and family ties to Arafat — he is the iconic leader's nephew — are seen as a plus. Al-Qidwa was the one named in the Abbas-authorized response to the newspaper report on the succession battle. The commentary, published by the official news agency Wafa, complained that local politicians were engaged in rumor-mongering. Al-Qidwa denied involvement and has since patched things up with the Palestinian leader.Former security chiefs Dahlan and Jibril Rajoub also are perennial contenders.Rajoub, who withdrew from politics for a few years, is building a new base as a successful head of the football federation.Dahlan, the former security chief in Gaza, has lost much of his standing. He was widely held responsible by party colleagues for the loss of Gaza to Hamas and has been dogged by corruption allegations. His problems with Abbas started last month, after he criticized the Palestinian leader in meetings with activists.

Both Dahlan and al-Qidwa declined comment.The Palestinian politician seen by many Western diplomats as most suited for the job is Salam Fayyad, who as prime minister is overseeing a widely praised state-building program.However, the political independent has a strained relationship with Fatah leaders and lacks his own power base.For now, Abbas is determined to stay on, despite his growing frustration over lack of progress in peace efforts, said Azzam al-Ahmed, a senior Fatah official. In the most recent setback, the U.S. dropped attempts to persuade Israel to extend a construction slowdown in Jewish settlements, meaning the road to renewed negotiations is effectively closed.President Abbas is disappointed, but not to the degree of leaving the stage,al-Ahmed said.

Israel draws international rebuke over settlements By KARIN LAUB, Associated Press – Thu Dec 9, 5:59 pm ET

RAMALLAH, West Bank – The European Union, the United Nations and the Arab League have rebuked Israel after its refusal to halt settlement construction forced Washington to drop efforts to relaunch Mideast peace talks.Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas on Thursday stuck to his position that he won't negotiate without a freeze of Jewish settlement building in the West Bank and east Jerusalem — lands captured by Israel and sought by the Palestinians for their state. He spoke after meeting in Cairo with Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and intelligence chief Omar Suleiman.Without halt of settlements, there will be no talks, Abbas said.With the path to direct talks effectively blocked, it is not clear what the Obama administration will do next.Israeli and Palestinian envoys were summoned to Washington for separate meetings with U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. She saw Israeli envoy Yitzhak Molcho on Thursday, to be followed by talks with Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat on Friday. Molcho also met Obama envoy George Mitchell for three hours, State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley said.

Clinton is to address the situation in a speech later Friday. U.S. officials have refused to offer a detailed preview, but have said they expect she will express disappointment with the failure of the administration's efforts to date. But, they said they expect her to stress that the administration has not given up and will continue to aggressively pursue a peace deal.The officials said the hope is that enough progress can be made on security issues and setting a final border between Israel and a future Palestinian state in separate talks with the sides to pave the way for a resumption of direct negotiations.Israel and the Palestinians launched the latest round of peace talks on Sept. 2. But less than a month later, negotiations broke down after Israel refused to extend a 10-month-old freeze on West Bank housing starts that ended at the end of September.In recent weeks, the U.S. had tried to persuade Israel to extend a limited West Bank settlement freeze for 90 days, offering a series of security and diplomatic incentives. However, the negotiations over an extension broke down, and U.S. officials announced earlier this week they had abandoned that approach.Washington did not cast blame. But other members of the so-called Quartet of Mideast mediators, which also includes the EU, the U.N. and Russia, sharply criticized Israel.I note with regret that Israel has not been in a position to accept an extension of the (settlement) moratorium, as requested by the U.S., the EU and the Quartet, Catherine Ashton, the EU foreign policy chief, said Thursday.

The EU position on settlements is clear: They are illegal under international law and an obstacle to peace. Recent settlement-related developments, including in east Jerusalem, contradict efforts by the international community for successful negotiations, she said.U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon expressed regret that Israel will not heed the united call of the international community, as reflected by the Quartet, to extend the settlement restraint policy, U.N. spokesman Martin Nesirky said.In spite of this setback, the secretary-general believes it is more important than ever to promote a negotiated endgame for a two-state solution, Nesirky said.Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak met Thursday with Ban in New York and told reporters he had sought U.N. help in restarting the talks.Barak said it was an urgent necessity that negotiations resume and said it was not the rate of settlement construction that was the problem but suspicion and mutual distrust.In Israel, officials declined comment on the international criticism.In a meeting with Quartet envoy Tony Blair on Thursday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said efforts would continue to reach a historic peace agreement between Israel and the Palestinians, two states for two peoples. He did not give specifics. Netanyahu also said he would work with Blair and the Palestinians to have concrete developments in the field.There are growing signs that Arab countries that have supported U.S. efforts are getting restless.On Wednesday, Arab League Chief Amr Moussa said resuming direct talks under current conditions is out of the question. The Egyptian diplomat also questioned the intentions of the U.S. and Israel.Direct talks ... means what is being sold to us is the imposition of the occupation's condition, which is absolutely unacceptable for all of us, he said. It is clear that the American administration couldn't reach a halt of settlement (activity), which makes negotiations useless.The Arab League's committee dealing with the negotiations, which gives guidance and support to the Palestinians, is to meet next week. In the Gaza Strip, the second territory claimed by the Palestinians, Mahmoud Zahar, the strongman of the ruling Hamas group addressed about 400 demonstrators outside his home in Gaza City ahead of celebrations of the 23rd anniversary of its founding.I am calling on and urging all Palestinian groups for national unity, including Fatah, and to resume the armed struggle, the only way to bring an end to this occupation, he said.After his speech, Zahar and two other Hamas supporters torched an Israeli flag.Associated Press writers Maggie Michael in Cairo and Matthew Lee in Washington contributed to this report.

Canada and U.S. to sign border, security deal: report
– Wed Dec 8, 5:40 pm ET

OTTAWA (Reuters) – Canada and the United States are working on a new security and trade deal that would allow people and goods to flow more easily between the two major trading partners, the National Post said on Wednesday.The New Border Vision ... will include new common consumer product regulations, a pre-clearance agreement for goods crossing the border to reduce waiting times and the use of advanced technology to utilize biometric data for travelers, said an article on the newspaper's website.The Post quoted government sources as saying the deal would be announced in early 2011.Although Canada and the United States already have one of the closest trading relationships in the world, with trade between the two nations well over $1 billion a day. However, Canadian business executives complain that increased U.S. security is delaying shipments of goods.Asked for a response to the report, a spokesman for Public Safety Minister Vic Toews said no such announcement is planned. We don't comment on hearsay or speculation.In March, the U.S. State Department announced it was working on a deal with Mexico -- also called New Border Vision -- to deal with their border issues, fight crime and commit to the efficient flow of legal commerce and travel.Canada, the United States and Mexico form the North American Free Trade Agreement. Foreign ministers from the three nations are due to meet in Canada on Dec 13.(Reporting by David Ljunggren; editing by Rob Wilson)

11 Reasons Why The Threat From Al-Qaeda is Not Real
Saman Mohammadi The Excavator December 9, 2010

The United States government has repeatedly stated that the treat from Al-Qaeda against America is very real, and that all action is being taken to eliminate that threat. Nobody in their right mind would question such a serious assessment about a sensitive national security matter from the world’s leading democracy. But the truth is that over the past fifty years America’s democratic institutions like the press have been weakened, and an elitist National Security State has risen, and taken control over all aspects of government.Patsy wrangler and Pentagon dinner guest, Anwar al-Awlaki.Since World War II U.S. leaders have consistently lied to the American people about foreign threats in order to feed the military machine’s appetite for war. All of these wars are unjust and unwarranted but that does not stop the self-interested criminals who control U.S. foreign policy. A recent example of a lie they told was their assertion that Saddam Hussein was in possession of weapons of mass destruction. That episode revealed to many people the true nature of the American government. Simply put, it does not care about the truth, or the American people, or the members of the military. U.S. leaders like former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, and current Secretary of Defense Robert Gates, to name but a few, tell lies at will. Dishonesty means nothing to them. They deceive the American people, the American military, and the world about their motives and methods – and they lie to themselves about their own powers and abilities.Next to the hundreds of thousands of innocent people who were slaughtered by the American war machine in its numerous criminal wars, U.S. soldiers have suffered the most – way more than the rest of the population in America. It can’t be said enough that the U.S. government’s treatment of its soldiers is scandalous and shameful. It is so out of whack that in America today dogs are treated better than military vets. Some dogs are even treated to luxurious spas while military vets are denied the proper health care that they deserve. Instead, they’re left to rot, and commit suicide. And for what? To defend America? To defeat Al-Qaeda? Or to keep the war machine and its benefactors rich and powerful? As you will see by the end of this post, it is the latter.

I. Setting The Historical Scene: The United States Government And The American Mainstream Media Are Anti-Democracy, Anti-Freedom, Anti-Peace.All governments lie. said American journalist I. F. Stone. You can add to that great quote and all newspapers lie, too.By joining forces together, the CIA and American newspapers sold two criminal wars to the people – a manufactured and destructive War on Terror, and the Iraq war. Most journalists were not consciously part of the propaganda campaign, they just bought the hype, but, without a doubt, a lot of journalists who work for the CIA knowingly injected false information into their columns and helped spread nationalist fever across America to boost public support for the wars.Government spies posing as independent journalists is one of the CIA’s least kept secrets. Former CIA director William Colby famously said The Central Intelligence Agency owns everyone of any significance in the major media.Carl Bernstein revealed the relationship between the CIA and the media in his 1977 Rolling Stone article The CIA and the Media. An excerpt:Some of these journalists’ relationships with the Agency were tacit; some were explicit. There was cooperation, accommodation and overlap. Journalists provided a full range of clandestine services — from simple intelligence gathering to serving as go-betweens with spies in Communist countries. Reporters shared their notebooks with the CIA. Editors shared their staffs. Some of the journalists were Pulitzer Prize winners, distinguished reporters who considered themselves ambassadors-without-portfolio for their country. Most were less exalted: foreign correspondents who found that their association with the Agency helped their work; stringers and freelancers who were as interested it the derring-do of the spy business as in filing articles, and, the smallest category, full-time CIA employees masquerading as journalists abroad. In many instances, CIA documents show, journalists were engaged to perform tasks for the CIA with the consent of the managements America’s leading news organizations.The media’s relationship with the CIA began well before the Vietnam war, but it was after that disastrous war ended when the Pentagon and the CIA took their clandestine media operations to another level. They wanted to completely gut the free press in America, which contributed to the anti-war sentiment in the late 60s and early 70s. Government officials secretly established deep ties to journalists to make sure that the American people would be less informed about America’s foreign policy, and future conflicts, and hence, less combative against the government and less anti-war.

The Pentagon has been interested in information warfare for many decades, and the fruits of their studies are applied to the American people, and to foreign enemies. PSYOP, shorthand for Psychological Operations, is a propaganda and disinformation Pentagon program that is used in the foreign battlefield to break the will of enemy forces, and make the ensuing battle a little less bloody. It worked wonderfully in the Gulf war. Retired Col. Jim Noll said that PSYOPs was a life-saving military technique. From a 2001 article called Persian Gulf War 10 years later: Winning the war by convincing the enemy to go home by Al Zdon:The psychological warfare in the end saved many lives, on both sides. I know many American lives were saved because so many Iraqis had deserted or chose not to fight when we arrived. Many of them were holding up our leaflets to surrender with.The leaflets were based on the intelligence the Psyops battalion had gained from prisoners. Some showed large bombers dropping their payloads. Others showed tank units how to surrender. Others showed Americans landing from the sea (a military ploy to divert Iraqi defenses. The U.S. never did land from the sea.) Others were printed on fake Iraqi money so the soldiers could conceal them in their wallets.Wired magazine reported in June that the Pentagon may change the name PSYOP to Military Information Support and/to Operations (MISO). I wrote an article about the proposed name change back in July called MISO: Making Intelligence Sound Obscure.The threat by PSYOPS to democracy, and freedom in America cannot be overstated. It is a fact that the Pentagon and the CIA routinely use PSYOPS against the American people to make them support illegal and unnecessary wars. Indeed, it is not a stretch to say that today the United States is a PSYOPS state, not a democratic state.It should concern all Americans, and all citizens around the world that the CIA and Pentagon are using psychological military techniques inside the United States against the American people. The CIA was created to keep tabs on foreign enemies, not the American people. Former Governor Jesse Ventura has confirmed that the CIA is working within America’s borders a number of times in his many television interviews. He says that a cadre of CIA officials questioned him shortly after he won the election in Minnesota as an independent candidate about how he won. Ventura guesses that the CIA questioned him because they were surprised that a political maverick like him succeeded and wanted to know his political strategy in order to prevent a similar candidate from advancing to such a high political position in the future.

Former President Harry Truman criticized the CIA for intervening in domestic affairs in a Washington Post op-ed in 1963: For some time I have been disturbed by the way the CIA has been diverted from its original assignment. It has become an operational and at times a policy-making arm of the government…. I never had any thought that when I set up the CIA that it would be injected into peacetime cloak and dagger operations.Philip Agee, who served in the CIA from 1957 to 1968, left the Agency because it failed to uphold the beliefs and values of the American people. He remained a leading critic of CIA policies until his death on January 7, 2008. In his 1975 book Inside the Company: CIA Diary, Agee warned that the murderous methods used by the CIA and the American empire in foreign lands would be used against the American people. The killings at Kent State and Jackson State, he wrote, show clearly enough that sooner or later our counter-insurgency methods would be applied at home. The rise of FEMA, TSA, and the overall police state proves that Agee’s prediction was accurate. In fact, the threat of martial law is so severe that it can be declared by the White House in the very near future.

II. Flashback: The Threat From Iraq Was Not Real

Knowing the truth matters in a democracy because without the truth citizens can’t make informed decisions about government policies that impact their lives. It is not possible to consciously answer fundamental societal questions like should we go to war? without a firm grasp of all the facts at hand. When independent journalists fail to provide the simple and straightforward facts to the public, they become complicit in government murder and fraud, and deserve even more ridicule than dishonest government officials and government-owned journalists.Had the truth emerged that Saddam Hussein was not in possession of weapons of mass destruction before America invaded Iraq in March of 2003, there would not have been any public support for the war. True, hundreds of thousands of people around the world protested the invasion of Iraq before it was launched, but many people didn’t because they believed the lie that Saddam was a dangerous threat and would use WMDs against America if he wasn’t taken out. Leaders in the Bush administration used the oldest trick in the book of war to get the people to support a war that was not in their interest: they created a justification. Basically, they lied.Since a government’s justification for war, whether real or contrived, carries weight with a significant amount of people because they accept the word of authority over science and critical thinking, it is crucial to know, especially in societies based on the consent of the people, if a justification given by the government for war is true, or false. In the case of Iraq, as we now know, it was false.It is a tragedy that the world did not learn the fact that Saddam did not have weapons of mass destruction a lot sooner. Hundreds of thousands of innocent people died in Iraq who could have lived a long and fulfilling life, and the country itself was destroyed in a deliberate and systematic fashion. Dirk Adriaensens, a member of the Executive Committee of the BRussells Tribunal, which is a group that was part of the World Tribunal on Iraq, describes exactly how Iraq was demolished by the sick and murderous U.S. and U.K. governments in his article Iraq: The Age of Darkness.

Leaders in the Bush administration knew all along that Saddam did not have WMDs and was not a threat, but they wanted to go to war so bad that they made stuff up and presented it as the truth to the whole world. Ellen Knickmeyer, a former Washington Post bureau chief in Baghdad and Cairo, said this much and more in an article she wrote in October after WikiLeaks published hundreds of thousands of Iraq war logs. Recent revelations by WikiLeaks, Knickmeyer said, show how top American leaders lied, knowingly, to the American public, to American troops, and to the world.Some defenders of the Iraq war insist that it was noble and good because a tyrant was removed from power. This is a poisonous and dangerous half-truth. Indeed, it is true that Saddam was a vicious tyrant, and a godforsaken man, but his removal from power didn’t require a huge ground invasion and subsequent military occupation since he had no real support from his people and military. But that’s beside the point because removing tyrants from power is not an objective of U.S. foreign policy. And it should not be. Tyrants are always removed from below, never from above.If American leaders truly cared about the rule of law and democracy in Iraq they would have presented their case to the United Nations that Saddam was a war criminal for gassing the Kurds, which would have been met with agreement, and from there a variety of peaceful and legal means would have been recommended by the international community to bring Saddam to justice. If he then resisted international arrest, there would be a legal justification for using force to capture him and bring him to trial. But that course was not taken by American leaders because justice was only on their lips, not on their minds. American leaders and the CIA, unfortunately, are destroyers – not defenders – of democracy and the rule of a law. The same is true for Israeli leaders and Mossad. They are counterfeiters and war criminals who deserve to be hanged, not defended and praised.Noam Chomsky said on Democracy Now last week that the political leadership in both the United States and Israel share a profound hatred for democracy. This statement gets at the truth of the current political reality in Washington and Tel Aviv, but U.S. and Israeli don’t just hate democracy, they also hate the American people, humanity, truth, honor, peace, and all that is good and righteous in the world.

Just as Iraq was destroyed by design by U.S. leaders, America is being destroyed by design by U.S. leaders. The American people are coming to this realization reluctantly, but they’re coming to it at last. They are beginning to discover that their country is in ruins not by accident but from other causes, namely, that their top leaders are traitors who desire the destruction of America and the advancement of a new world order in which their illegally acquired power and wealth grows evermore.Both Herodotus and Socrates said The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance. Knowledge of the cause for war brings good into the world, ignorance of the causes of war brings evil into the world. Despite what we have been taught, war is not natural. War exists when ruling before the Second World War began, and when it ended, after millions of people died, historian Howard Zinn learned the same truth the hard way and then taught it to people for decades, up to the start of the Iraq war. In 2006 he wrote, war itself is the enemy of the human race.To defeat war, humanity’s collective enemy, we must learn the truth for why there is war in our time. When asked why America is at war American leaders always point to the attacks on September 11, 2001, but the official account of what happened on that day is not true. New scientific evidence gathered by a collection of physicists, scientists, architects, and engineers, among them Steven E. Jones, Niels Harrit, and Richard Gage, proves unequivocally that the towers, including the rarely mentioned building 7, collapsed due to controlled demolition using explosives.

American leaders told one of the greatest lies in human history when they said that Al-Qaeda was responsible for the 9/11 attacks. That lie spawned an immediate and criminal invasion of Afghanistan, and a much larger, and more consequential global war on terrorism that is still being waged in numerous countries more than nine years after the attacks. Former President George W. Bush also used the 9/11 lie to paint Saddam Hussein as a supporter of terrorism. In his State of the Union Address on January 28, 2003, Bush said: Evidence from intelligence sources, secret communications and statements by people now in custody reveal that Saddam Hussein aids and protects terrorists, including members of Al Qaida. This statement later was proven to be a complete lie. Saddam had no connections to Al-Qaeda.President Barack Obama has frequently relied on the 9/11 lie to support his administration’s war in Afghanistan. After the Christmas Day airliner bombing attempt last December, which also remains a dubious event because the bomber was boarded onto the plane with help from an unmentioned person who is presumed to be an intelligence official, Obama said: We are at war against al Qaeda, a far-reaching network of violence and hatred that attacked us on 9/11, that killed nearly 3,000 innocent people and that is plotting to strike us again. And we will do whatever it takes to defeat them.

Obama was blatantly lying when he said that Al-Qaeda is a far-reaching network of violence and hatred. Once you research the origins of Al-Qaeda, which in Arabic simply means the base, you can’t help but view American leaders like Bush and Obama as devilish tricksters who are trying to pull the wool over our eyes.

III. 11 Reasons Why The Threat From Al-Qaeda is Not Real

Al-Qaeda is either one of these things, or it is a combination of them: a) a completely fake threat; the organization does not exist, b) an organization that exists in small numbers but was created by the CIA to serve a corrupt U.S. foreign policy, and remains a U.S. intelligence asset in the manufactured global war on terrorism, or c) a small organization that exists independently of the U.S. government but its strength and influence in the Middle East is exaggerated by radical policymakers and officials in Washington. Out of all three statements the first and second deserve the most serious attention because they are supported by the evidence listed below.

#1. Radical American cleric Anwar Al-Awlaki, who was ordered to be assassinated by President Obama, met with top military officials at the Pentagon months after the 9/11 attacks. Were Pentagon officials sincerely interested in reaching out to members of the Muslim community, or were they recruiting radical Muslim clerics to spread the message of radical Islam in order to validate and sustain the Bush administration’s war on terror? It is not outrageous or crazy to raise the question if the U.S. government aims to inflame radical Islam, even by funding and supporting undercover intelligence agents that front as terrorists, in order to make the American people perceive that they are in danger of violent Islamic extremism, and cause them to give up their liberties for permanent security.An alarming piece of news is that follows an undeniable pattern of government-induced terrorist activity is of an FBI informant, Craig Monteilh, who infiltrated a Mosque in California, and shouted violent rhetoric with the intention to entrap potential terrorists, and then sell it to the public that Hey, the FBI arrested someone at a Mosque who wanted to blow a building up, without mentioning the fact that the FBI agent was the one who got the ball rolling in the first place. In this case, however, the government’s plan to attract and create terrorists didn’t work. The Washington Post reported: In the Irvine case, Monteilh’s mission as an informant backfired. Muslims were so alarmed by his talk of violent jihad that they obtained a restraining order against him.

#2. CIA Director Leon Panetta revealed in June 2010 on ABC’s This Week that there are less than 100 Al-Qaeda members in the Afghanistan-Pakistan region. I think the estimate on the number of Al Qaeda,said Panetta, is actually relatively small. At most, we’re looking at 50 to 100, maybe less. It’s in that vicinity. By contrast, there are more than 100,000 American soldiers and military contractors in the region. You can’t call it a fair fight. You can’t even say it’s not a fair fight, because, in reality, it is not a fight at all. It is not a fight. 50,000 Al-Qaeda members would make it a fight. It still wouldn’t be a fair fight, but it would be a fight.

#3. The International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS), one of the world’s leading security think tanks, published a report this year which said that the threat of Al-Qaeda and the Taliban is exaggerated by Western policymakers. The report warned that the war in Afghanistan will become a long, drawn-out disaster if troops are not withdrawn. Nigel Inkster, a former deputy chief of Britain’s Secret Intelligence Service who is a member of the think tank, also said that the threat from Al-Qaeda in Pakistan is minimal, and almost absent in Yemen, and Somalia.

Commenting on the report by the IISS, journalist and author Eric Margolis said:The IISS’s findings are a direct challenge to Obama, Britain’s new prime minister, David Cameron, and other US allies with troops in Afghanistan. This report undermines their rational used to sustain the increasingly unpopular conflict. It will certainly convince sceptics that the real reason for occupation of Afghanistan has to do with oil, excluding China from the region, and keeping watch on nuclear-armed Pakistan.

#4. Former US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said in an interview to the Los Angeles Times’s Patt Morrison in October 2010 that Al-Qaeda doesn’t exist. The organization that did 9/11 — that Al Qaeda — I don’t think really exists, said Rice. The statement is shocking, to say the least, and contradicts the official 9/11 story which is built on the premise that Al-Qaeda, regarded as an Islamic terrorist group by the United States, England, Canada, Israel, Saudi Arabia and many other governments, was large and sophisticated enough to plan and execute the biggest terrorist attack in the United States. Apparently, Rice doesn’t agree with President Obama that Al-Qaeda is a far-reaching network of violence.

#5. The U.S. government created, and funded Islamic fundamentalism in the 1980s to be used to draw the Soviet Union into Afghanistan, and bleed it to death in a costly and unwinnable war. This was no doubt a smart move when you have a strategic hat on, when you are sitting comfortably on the seat of power, but when you are confronting issues of peace and war, life and death, coexistence and annihilation, on a very small planet, it was a very cynical and dangerous error. Zbigniew Brzezinski, who is considered a realist in foreign policy circles and a critic of Israel, was one of the leaders behind the operation as President Jimmy Carter’s National Security Advisor. In an interview he gave to a weekly French magazine called Le Nouvel Observateur in January 1998 he discussed how and why the U.S. funded Muslim terrorists (or freedom fighters, depending on your outlook). Excerpt from the interview:Q: When the Soviets justified their intervention by asserting that they intended to fight against a secret involvement of the United States in Afghanistan, people didn’t believe them. However, there was a basis of truth. You don’t regret anything today? Brzezinski: Regret what? That secret operation was an excellent idea. It had the effect of drawing the Russians into the Afghan trap and you want me to regret it? The day that the Soviets officially crossed the border, I wrote to President Carter. We now have the opportunity of giving to the USSR its Vietnam War. Indeed, for almost 10 years, Moscow had to carry on a war unsupportable by the government, a conflict that brought about the demoralization and finally the break-up of the Soviet empire.The fact that America trained and funded a terrorist network in Central Asia less than two decades before the September 11, 2001 attacks is a relevant historical fact. It raises the strong possibility that after the Soviet Union collapsed the CIA used their terrorist network to promote U.S. foreign policy by covert means, including in the United States on September 11, 2001.

#6. Robin Cook, who served as a British MP for 22 years and as Foreign Secretary from 1997 to 2001, wrote an article for the Guardian in July 2005, a month before his death, called The struggle against terrorism cannot be won by military means. Throughout the article Cook makes many devastating critiques of the West’s war on terror, but here is a quote that requires our greatest attention:Bin Laden was, though, a product of a monumental miscalculation by western security agencies. Throughout the 80s he was armed by the CIA and funded by the Saudis to wage jihad against the Russian occupation of Afghanistan. Al-Qaida, literally the database, was originally the computer file of the thousands of mujahideen who were recruited and trained with help from the CIA to defeat the Russians.Cook’s analysis is dead on in certain respects, but, like others, including author Chalmers Johnson (RIP), he made the mistake of contextualizing terrorism against the West as the result of a blowback against American foreign policy that is orchestrated chiefly by a mad and independent Osama Bin Laden and his hardcore followers. In reality, the problem of terrorism originates directly from within Western governments, mainly the United States, England, and Israel – governments that are not democratic, but authoritarian, and rely on secrecy, misinformation, and deception to promote policies that enrich a few well-connected individuals who are powerful and immoral enough to negatively influence government legislation and government policy.

#7. A BBC article from July 2004 called Al-Qaeda’s origins and links reveals that Osama Bin Laden was a CIA agent in the 1980s. The article states: During the anti-Soviet jihad Bin Laden and his fighters received American and Saudi funding. Some analysts believe Bin Laden himself had security training from the CIA. It is highly possible that Osama Bin Laden was still an agent of the CIA on September 11, 2001. As they say of the CIA, once a member, always a member.

#8. J. Michael Springmann, a 20 year foreign service official, and a former Consulate officer in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, has publicly stated for many years that the CIA brought over Muslim radicals to the United States for secret terrorist training. Most of these radicals were brought through Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, where Springman was stationed from 1987 to 1989 before he was let go by the State Department because he raised questions about the weakly enforced VISA qualification process.In an interview with Alex Jones in May 2002 Springmann pointed out that 15 of the 19 hijackers in the 9/11 attacks entered the United States after CIA officials in Jeddah approved their visas. According to the Los Angeles Times, said Springmann, fifteen of the nineteen people, the Saudis who were allegedly responsible for flying planes into the World Trade Towers and the Pentagon, they got their visas from the Consulate at Jeddah.In an article written in February of 2003 called Policing the Borders: Old Fears, New Realities Springmann wrote about how U.S. foreign policy works, and to what ends:What very few Americans understand is the pathological Cold War mindset of those who have shaped U.S. foreign policy since the middle of the last century. It is a worldview with little interest in security per se. For those who exercise ultimate power, success is measured by the bottom lines on certain corporate quarterly reports. These numbers represent transcendent ends which have justified and continue to justify any and every means imaginable, from rubber-stamping illegitimate visa applications to full scale massacre.Click here to read the transcript of Alex Jones’s interview with Springmann in May 2002; click here to listen to Alex Jones’s interview with Springmann in February 2010. Both interviews are very revealing, and should be required listening/reading for everyone.

#9. Germany’s Der Spiegel’s published an article by Siegesmund von Ilsemann called Arming the Middle East: The Checkered History of American Weapons Deals in June 2007. The article backed up the reporting done by the BBC, and elsewhere that the United States government supplied Afghan freedom fighters in the 1980s with money and arms for their struggle against occupying Soviet troops. One of the best customers for the CIA back then was Saudi millionaire Osama Bin Laden. This account is only half-true. The CIA funded and trained a network of Muslim fighters not to liberate Afghanistan from corrupt Soviet influence, but to create havoc and instigate a Soviet invasion so that it would drain itself of blood and treasure. Once the objective of bringing down the Soviet Union was achieved, the stage was set for the United States and the West to invade Afghanistan and take advantage of the country’s vast resources, from oil to heroin.

#10. Selig Harrison, a current member of the Woodrow Wilson International Centre for Scholars, a former senior associate of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, and an expert on South Asia, said in March 2001 at a conference called Terrorism and Regional Security: Managing the Challenges in Asia, that the CIA and Pakistan’s ISI helped create the backward and tyrannical Taliban. The CIA made a historic mistake in encouraging Islamic groups from all over the world to come to Afghanistan, said Harrison, a quote that appears in an article in the Times of India from March 2001. According to Harrison, without the CIA and ISI’s funds and guns, the Taliban wouldn’t exist as a political and religious force in Afghanistan. An excerpt from the Times of India article:The old associations between the intelligence agencies continue, Harrison said. The CIA still has close links with the ISI (Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence).Today that money and those weapons have helped build up the Taliban, Harrison said. The Taliban are not just recruits from madrassas (Muslim theological schools) but are on the payroll of the ISI (Inter Services Intelligence, the intelligence wing of the Pakistani government).The Taliban are now making a living out of terrorism.Harrison said the UN Security Council resolution number 1333 calls for an embargo on arms to the Taliban. But it is a resolution without teeth because it does not provide sanctions for non-compliance, he said. The US is not backing the Russians who want to give more teeth to the resolution.Now it is Pakistan that holds the key to the future of Afghanistan, Harrison said. The creation of the Taliban was central to Pakistan’s pan-Islamic vision, Harrison said.It came after the CIA made the historic mistake of encouraging Islamic groups from all over the world to come to Afghanistan, he said. The creation of the Taliban had been “actively encouraged by the ISI and the CIA, he said. Pakistan has been building up Afghan collaborators who will sustain Pakistan,” he said.

#11. The September 11, 2001 attacks, which serve as the basis for America’s wars in the Middle East, were committed by the United States government with assistance from the government of Israel. This is an indisputable fact. Here is a list of three points that proves without a shadow of a doubt that the official 9/11 story is false, and indefensible:

* American physicist Steven E. Jones, Danish chemist Niels Harrit, and others wrote a peer-reviewed paper in 2009 called Active Thermitic Material Discovered in Dust from the 9/11 World Trade Center Catastrophe, that was published in The Open Chemical Physics Journal. The authors discovered nano-thermite in samples of the WTC dust, a highly advanced explosive that is made by a small number of companies. They wrote:As measured using DSC, the material ignites and reacts vigorously at a temperature of approximately 430 °C, with a rather narrow exotherm, matching fairly closely an independent observation on a known super-thermite sample. The low temperature of ignition and the presence of iron oxide grains less than 120 nm show that the material is not conventional thermite (which ignites at temperatures above 900 °C) but very likely a form of super-thermite.

* The vertical collapse of Building Se7en, a building that was not struck by a plane. Steel buildings have never collapsed before because of fire alone. Common sense suggests that explosives were used to bring the building down, which rules out involvement by radical Muslims because officer workers would have noticed their activity in the building prior to 9/11.

* Firefighters said they witnessed and heard loud back-to-back explosions coming from the Towers. In this video clip, a couple of firefighters recount what they saw. One of them says, It was as if they had detonated. . . as if they were planning to take down a building: boom boom boom boom boom.There are so many more points, and so many more smoking guns, but it does not get any more obvious, any more in-your-face than hearing firefighters say that they heard bombs going off. All honest individuals must rethink their position on the 9/11 attacks after taking a look at the collapse of building 7, and watching firefighters say that they heard explosions. You don’t have to be an expert to see the obvious. You don’t even have to be smart. You just have to be honest and unafraid.

IV. Ending The Perpetual War on Terror And The Not So Great Game

Now that we know the threat from Al-Qaeda is not real, we must pressure our Western governments to end the global war on terrorism, and bring home all the troops from Afghanistan, Iraq, and everywhere else in the Middle East. The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are unjust, unnecessary, and destructive to global peace, global harmony, and global stability. The U.S. and UK governments are not waging war in Iraq and Afghanistan to establish free and open democracies but to fulfill criminal goals, and emerge victorious in the 21st century’s Great Game.The West’s war on terror is all about the Great Game, not defeating Al-Qaeda or Islamic extremists. A small proof that this is true comes from Prince Andrew’s own words. In one of the diplomatic cables published by WikiLeaks, Andrew says:Addressing the Ambassador directly, Prince Andrew then turned to regional politics. He stated baldly that the United Kingdom, Western Europe (and by extension you Americans too) were now back in the thick of playing the Great Game. More animated than ever, he stated cockily: And this time we aim to win! Such arrogance reflects anti-human and anti-freedom beliefs, which are shared by many members of the elite in the United States, England, and Europe, who desire war and conflict over peace and brotherhood. Members of the Western political elite have the hearts of monsters. They are more interested in winning a geopolitical game that causes death and mass destruction than in uplifting humanity, and making the world a better place for all people.U.S. and U.K. policymakers cynically fund and assist radical Muslims, and sometimes stage terrorist attacks that are blamed on radical Muslims, to maintain the public perception in the Western world that there are thousands of nasty terrorists who wish them harm. But this is not true. And it is a dangerous perception that must be erased. As Professor Michel Chossudovsky writes in his 2008 article “Al Qaeda and the War on Terrorism:

U.S. foreign policy is not geared towards curbing the tide of Islamic fundamentalism. In fact, it is quite the opposite. The significant development of radical Islam, in the wake of the Cold War in the former Soviet Union and the Middle East is consistent with Washington’s hidden agenda. The latter consists in sustaining rather than combating international terrorism, with a view to destabilizing national societies and preventing the articulation of genuine secular social movements directed against the American Empire.Washington continues to support — through CIA covert operations — the development of Islamic fundamentalism, throughout the Middle East, in the former Soviet Union as well in China and India.

Throughout the developing world, the growth of sectarian, fundamentalist and other such organizations tends to serve U.S. interests. These various organizations and armed insurgents have been developed, particularly in countries where state institutions have collapsed under the brunt of the IMF-sponsored economic reforms.
These fundamentalist organizations contribute by destroying and displacing secular institutions.Islamic fundamentalism creates social and ethnic divisions. It undermines the capacity of people to organize against the American Empire. These organizations or movements, such as the Taliban, often foment opposition to Uncle Sam in a way which does not constitute any real threat to America’s broader geopolitical and economic interests.We must speak the full truth about the origins of the war on terror if we want to end it. Journalists need to publicize the historical facts about U.S. support for terrorism, and report the truth about the September 11, 2001 attacks. We can’t let the truth about government-staged terrorism be trapped in the black hole of history. There will be change once we speak the full truth passionately and demand justice. The old tyrants will vanish under a new sun.

A different world is possible. A world with universal and permanent peace on Earth is not a Utopian dream. There are no reasons for conflict in the world today. The threat of terrorism is a manufactured threat. Al-Qaeda doesn’t exist. And 9/11 is a big lie. In sum, the War on Terror is totally illegitimate and criminal. The governments of United States, England, Canada, Australia, and Israel represent the only obstacle to peace in the Middle East. Their leaders have committed crimes against humanity, and must be brought to justice.A war on world poverty may well do more for the security of the west than a war on terror, said U.K. MP Robin Cook in 2005. He was right, and then some. But it is not enough to be right. We must win. We must put an end to the War on Terror and the Great Game. We must restart the global anti-war movement, and this time we must expose the lie about 9/11 because victory against the war criminals is impossible without a firm foothold on the ground of truth.

Big Sis Set To Expand Spy Program To Sports Stadiums
Paul Joseph Watson Infowars.com December 9, 2010

If you thought seeing Big Sis urging Americans to report suspicious activity at Wal-Mart checkouts was creepy enough, you ain’t seen nothing yet. Homeland Security announced yesterday that the program was set to be expanded to include 9,000 federal buildings, as well as sports stadiums, businesses and communities in general.Despite the official Homeland Security You Tube channel being bombarded by almost 6,000 profanity-filled comments from Americans outraged that their country is sinking into a decrepit Soviet-style informant society, Janet Napolitano announced yesterday that the If you see something, say something, campaign will be extended to include around 9,000 federal buildings across the country.In the coming weeks, If You See Something, Say Something public awareness materials designed to help America’s businesses, communities and citizens remain vigilant and play an active role in keeping our homeland safe will be posted in approximately 9,000 federal buildings throughout the country, states a DHS press release. Signage will appear at FPS guard stations at each facility, and any calls reporting suspicious activity will be directed to the existing national network of FPS call centers, which operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week.The memo also indicated that the campaign would be extended to sports stadiums, labeled sports and general aviation industries in the press release, as well as businesses and communities in general – so before too long expect to see and hear Big Sis reminding you that you live in a Sovietized police state wherever you happen to be.

In the coming months, the Department will continue to expand the If You See Something, Say Something campaign nationally with public education materials and outreach tools designed to help America’s businesses, communities and citizens remain vigilant and play an active role in keeping the country safe, states the release.Invading public life with creepy posters and video messages encouraging Americans to report each other to the authorities represents a resurrection of the Bush-era Operation TIPS program (Terrorism Information and Prevention System), which at its inception hoped to recruit more tattle-tales than were even active at the height of the Stasi in Soviet-controlled East Germany.The program encouraged people who had access to Americans’ homes, such as cable installers and telephone repair workers, to report back to the authorities if they saw anything deemed suspicious. Presumably, Napolitano’s plan to expand the current DHS informant program into communities, businesses and citizens will mimic similar methods.At the time, Operation TIPS was decried by liberals as an end run around the constitution and its figurehead, Attorney General John Ashcroft, was portrayed as a dangerous authoritarian, even Nazi-like, enforcer. TIPS was compared to the Hoover-era FBI wiretaps that were used to spy on and oppress anti-war activists.Now that an almost identical program has been launched under the Obama administration, those same liberal groups are noticeably more subdued in their opposition. The ACLU carries absolutely nothing about it on their website, and leftist blogs like the Daily Kos and the Huffington Post have barely mentioned the story.

Ironically, Operation TIPS was officially cancelled when the Homeland Security Act was passed by Congress in November 2002, officially creating the DHS. Section 880 of the bill expressly prohibited the creation of Operation TIPS, and yet Napolitano has resurrected an almost identical program under the auspices of Homeland Security itself.As a Sydney Morning Herald article about the TIPS program noted at the time, Historically, informant systems have been the tools of non-democratic states. According to a 1992 report by Harvard University’s Project on Justice, the accuracy of informant reports is problematic, with some informants having embellished the truth, and others suspected of having fabricated their reports.Indeed, as we have documented, every historical example of such informant programs illustrates that they never lead to a more secure society, but instead breed suspicion, distrust, fear and resentment amongst the population. The only benefit that such programs have ever achieved is allowing the state to more easily identify and persecute political dissidents while discouraging the wider population from engaging in any criticism against the government.As Alex Jones points out, this isn’t just about Wal-Mart, it’s about the Department of Homeland Security and Big Sis launching a full-scale invasion of our entire society.

Expect busy 2011 hurricane season, CSU team says
– Wed Dec 8, 12:19 pm ET

MIAMI (Reuters) – The 2011 Atlantic hurricane season will be nearly as busy as the one that just ended, Colorado State University meteorologists predicted on Wednesday.
The forecasting team anticipates 17 tropical storms, with nine of those strengthening into hurricanes during the season that runs from June 1 to November 30.
Five will grow into major hurricanes of category 3 or higher on the five-step Saffir-Simpson scale of hurricane intensity, with sustained winds of at least 111 mph (178 km per hour), the team predicted.That compares with 19 tropical storms, 12 hurricanes and five major hurricanes during the 2010 season that just ended on November 30. The 2020 season tied with 1887 and 1995 for the third-highest storm total on record.

An average season brings 11 storms, six hurricanes and two major hurricanes in the Atlantic, Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico.The forecasters said sea surface temperatures in the North Atlantic were still at record warm levels, indicating the region is still in a multi-decade period of high activity for hurricanes.They said it also seemed unlikely that El Nino would develop. El Nino is a warming of the tropical Pacific that produces wind patterns that squelch development of tropical storms in the Atlantic.This could mean a more active hurricane season, said Philip Klotzbach, who heads the Colorado State University team with pioneering forecaster William Gray.
There is a great deal of uncertainty in forecasts issued so far in advance but meteorologists have become more effective at analyzing large-scale patterns and predicting whether the next season will be busy, average or calmer than average.That can be useful in long-range planning for industries affected by hurricanes, including insurers, farmers and offshore energy operations.But short-term weather patterns dictate where any individual storm will go and no one foresaw that dry air masses and the jet stream wind current would combine to push last year's storms away from the United States.The U.S. was extremely lucky in 2010 in that none of the 12 Atlantic basin hurricanes that formed crossed the U.S. coastline, Klotzbach said.On average, about one in four Atlantic basin hurricanes makes U.S. landfall, and therefore, we would expect to see more landfalling hurricanes in 2011.(Reporting by Jane Sutton, editing by Philip Barbara)

Colombia seeks aid as rescuers dig out mudslide victims
By Albeiro Lopera – Tue Dec 7, 9:41 pm ET

BELLO, Colombia (Reuters) – Rescuers pulled out more bodies on Tuesday from a huge mudslide in northwestern Colombia where more than 100 people were buried as the government tried to cope with nationwide damage from heavy rains and flooding.Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos visited the site in Bello, Antioquia province, where more than 38 bodies have been recovered so far even as rains hindered recovery efforts and forced evacuations over the risk of more landslides.The disaster in Bello on Sunday was the worst in Colombia's wet season so far as rains batter much of the country, causing floods that have killed more than 200 people, damaged crops and livestock and forced around 1.7 million from their homes.The mudslide in Bello is just the most dramatic episode of a disaster without precedent in Colombia, Santos said in a national TV and radio broadcast. The crisis we are living now because of the harsh winter is our worst natural tragedy.Local authorities began to evacuate other areas that are in danger of mudslides while hundreds of local residents in Bello desperately joined the search for loved ones.

Santos said his administration would declare a limited state of emergency for 30 days over recent disasters to allow Congress and the government more flexibility to securing funding for rescue and reconstruction.He said the government would spend around $550 million on disaster relief, but he did not give further details on other extraordinary financial measures the government planned under the declaration of emergency.The Inter-American Development Bank has offered the Colombian government a credit of $350 million to assist in managing the disaster. Bad weather has also hit the coffee, coal and agriculture sectors.Neighboring Venezuela is suffering as well, with thousands of people displaced.The heavy rains in recent months are due to the La Nina weather phenomenon, which the government's weather office expects to last into the first quarter of next year and could increase rainfall in the next rainy season at end March.Flooding of farm land and the erosion of roads will push up food and transport costs and raise inflation but not so much as to change government targets, officials say.(Additional reporting by Luis Jaime Acosta; Writing by Patrick Markey in Bogota; Editing by Jack Kimball and Cynthia Osterman)
