U.S. Missiles Deployed Near China Send a Message
By MARK THOMPSON / WASHINGTON-TIME JULY 8,10

If China's satellites and spies were working properly, there was a flood of unsettling intelligence flowing into the Beijing headquarters of the Chinese Navy last week. A new class of U.S. super weapon had suddenly surfaced nearby. It was an Ohio-class submarine, which for decades carried only nuclear missiles targeted against the Soviet Union, and then Russia. But this one was different: for nearly three years, the U.S. Navy has been dispatching modified "boomers" to who knows where (they do travel underwater, after all). Four of the 18 ballistic-missile subs no longer carry nuclear-tipped Trident missiles. Instead, they now hold up to 154 Tomahawk cruise missiles, capable of hitting anything within 1,000 miles with non-nuclear warheads. Their capability makes watching these particular submarines especially interesting. The 14 Trident-carrying subs are useful in the unlikely event of a nuclear Armageddon, and Russia remains their prime target. But the Tomahawk-outfitted quartet carries a weapon that the U.S. military has used repeatedly against targets in Afghanistan, Bosnia, Iraq and Sudan. (See pictures of the U.S. military in the Pacific.)That's why alarm bells would have sounded in Beijing June 28 when the Tomahawk-laden 560-foot USS Ohio popped up in the Philippines' Subic Bay. More alarms likely were sounded when the USS Michigan arrived in Pusan, South Korea, the same day. And the klaxons would have maxed out as the USS Florida surfaced the same day at the joint U.S.-British naval base at Diego Garcia, a flyspeck of an island in the Indian Ocean. The Chinese military awoke to find as many as 462 additional Tomahawks deployed by the U.S. in its neighborhood. There's been a decision to bolster our forces in the Pacific,says Bonnie Glaser, a China expert at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington.There is no doubt that China will stand up and take notice.

U.S. officials deny any message is being directed at Beijing, saying the Tomahawk triple-play was a coincidence. But they did make sure news of the new deployments appeared in the Hong Kong-based South China Morning Post - on July 4, no less. The Chinese took notice quietly. At present, common aspirations of countries in the Asian and Pacific regions are seeking for peace, stability and regional security, Wang Baodong, spokesman for the Chinese Embassy in Washington, said Wednesday. We hope the relevant U.S. military activities will serve for the regional peace, stability and security, and not the contrary.Last month, the Navy had announced that all four of the Tomahawk Tridents were operationally deployed away from their home ports for the first time. Each vessel packs the firepower of multiple surface ships, says Capt. Tracy Howard, commander, Submarine Squadron 16 in Kings Bay, Ga., and can respond to diverse threats on short notice.The move forms part of a policy by the U.S. government to shift firepower from the Atlantic to the Pacific theater, which Washington sees as the military focus of the 21st Century. Reduced tensions since the end of the Cold War has seen the U.S. scale back its deployment of nuclear weapons, allowing the Navy to reduce its Trident fleet from 18 to 14. (Why 14 subs, as well as bombers and land-based missiles carrying nuclear weapons, are still required to deal with the Russian threat is a topic for another day.)

Sure, the Navy could have retired the four additional subs and saved the Pentagon some money, but that's not how bureaucracies operate. Instead, it spent about $4 billion replacing the Tridents with Tomahawks and making room for 60 special-ops troops to live aboard each sub and operate stealthily around the globe. We're there for weeks, we have the situational awareness of being there, of being part of the environment,Navy Rear Adm. Mark Kenny explained after the first Tomahawk Trident set sail in 2008.We can detect, classify and locate targets and, if need be, hit them from the same platform.The submarines aren't the only new potential issue of concern for the Chinese. Two major military exercises involving the U.S. and its allies in the region are now underway. More than three dozen naval ships and subs began participating in the Rim of the Pacific war games off Hawaii on Wednesday. Some 20,000 personnel from 14 nations are involved in the biennial exercise which includes missile exercises and the sinking of three abandoned vessels playing the role of enemy ships. Nations joining the U.S. in what is billed as the world's largest-ever naval war game are Australia, Canada, Chile, Colombia, France, Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Netherlands, Peru, Singapore and Thailand. Closer to China, CARAT 2010 - for Cooperation Afloat Readiness and Training - just got underway off Singapore. The operation involves 17,000 personnel and 73 ships from the U.S., Singapore, Bangladesh, Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Thailand.

China is absent from both exercises, and that's no oversight. Many nations in the eastern Pacific, including Australia, Japan, Indonesia, South Korea and Vietnam, have been encouraging the U.S. to push back against what they see as China's increasingly aggressive actions in the South China Sea. And the U.S. military remains concerned over China's growing missile force - now more than 1,000 - near the Taiwan Strait. The Tomahawks' arrival is part of a larger effort to bolster our capabilities in the region,Glaser says.It sends a signal that nobody should rule out our determination to be the balancer in the region that many countries there want us to be.No doubt Beijing got the signal.

Iran's president: US a global dictatorship
Wed Jul 7, 5:56 pm ET

ABUJA, Nigeria – Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says that the U.S. is a dictatorship as it tries to control world affairs.Ahmadinejad made the comments Wednesday night during a speech at the Iranian Embassy in Abuja, Nigeria's capital. He is in Nigeria for a summit of an organization known as the D-8, or the Developing Eight nations.In full, Ahmadinejad says the U.S. is the self-proclaimed leader, and everybody should know that a self-proclaimed leadership is (a) dictatorship. I am going to say, on behalf of you, that the years of dictatorship are over.Nigeria, a nation of 150 million people, is split between Christians and Muslims. A large crowd of Muslims filled the embassy for the speech.

Catholic priest, nun murdered in China
JULY 8,10

BEIJING (AFP) – A Catholic priest and a nun were murdered in northern China this week, but the motive was not immediately clear, police said on Thursday.AsiaNews, a Vatican-based news service, said Joseph Shulai Zhang and Sister Mary Wei Yanhui were apparently stabbed to death at the nursing home where they worked in the city of Wuhai in Inner Mongolia.After the two failed to appear at morning mass, their bodies were discovered in a pool of blood in the home, which was housed within the local church, the report said.The priest was apparently stabbed seven times, while the nun suffered one stab wound to the chest, the report said, adding they were members of the area's underground Catholic church.This is a criminal matter, we are in the process of cracking this case,a city policeman, also surnamed Zhang, told AFP.The policeman said the motive for the murders was not immediately clear and that investigators were not sure how many suspects were involved.Zhang, 55, had been a priest since 1985. Sister Wei, 32, was the director of the nursing home, which housed about 60 elderly people, AsiaNews said.

China has about five million Catholics who worship at Communist Party-sanctioned official churches, while up to 11 million reportedly worship at underground churches not approved by Beijing.The vast country has witnessed a spate of violent killings in recent years, many linked to disgruntled and often impoverished farmers seeking revenge for alleged social injustices.In recent months, China has seen a number of attacks on young schoolchildren around the country since March that have left 17 people dead, including 15 pupils, and scores injured.

New storm heads for swamped Texas-Mexico border By JORGE VARGAS, Associated Press Writer - JULY 8,10

NUEVO LAREDO, Mexico – A rain-packed tropical depression neared a midday collision with the Texas-Mexico border region on Thursday, a new threat to cities already struggling with floods along the Rio Grande and its tributaries.Police in Laredo, Texas, were evacuating people in low-lying areas as the rain-swollen Rio Grande rose to more than 30 feet (9 meters) above flood stage and forced closure of at least two bridges linking Mexico and the U.S.Tens of thousands of people already had been forced from their homes in Mexican towns as officials dumped torrents of water into flood-swollen rivers to avoid the risk of dams overflowing out of control due to last week's Hurricane Alex and its aftermath.Humberto Moreira, the governor of the border state of Coahuila, said that more than 20,000 homes had been flooded in his state alone, and about 80,000 people had lost all of their furniture.The U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami said a new tropical depression was likely to blow in from the Gulf of Mexico around midday in extreme southern Texas and northeastern Mexico. It could bring another 4 to 8 inches (10 to 20 centimeters) of rain.A tropical storm warning was in effect for the Texas coast south of Baffin Bay and for Mexico north of the San Fernando River.Hurricane Alex, unusually water-heavy, devastated the major Mexican city of Monterrey, and more than 100,000 people were still without water service this week. At least 12 people died in the flooding, according to Nuevo Leon state officials.

The hurricane's remnants caused rivers to rise across the area, forcing evacuations in Del Rio, Texas, some 110 miles (180 kilometers) upstream from Laredo, as well as in the Mexican state of Coahuila.To the southeast, officials in the Mexican state of Nuevo Leon evacuated nearly 18,000 people from houses in Ciudad Anahuac for fear that water would overflow the Venustiano Carranza dam and threaten lives. Water was still rising in the town on Thursday.An airplane on an inspection tour of the flood zone crashed Wednesday, killing the mayor of the border town of Piedras Negras, the state public works director, a municipal civil defense official, a government photographer and the pilot and co-pilot.Water behind the binational Amistad Dam on the Rio Grande already was at its highest level since 1974, according to the International Boundary and Water Commission, forcing officials to release water from it at the fastest rate in a quarter century.The commission said the downstream Falcon dam would probably reach capacity within the next few days, suggesting future releases there will raise water levels along the river's lower reaches.Much of that downstream area is protected against flooding by levees, but Mexico's National Water Commission said it was worried about low-lying settlements, most built by poor people without official permission.Associated Press writer Oscar Villalba in Piedras Negras, Mexico, contributed to this report.

Floods in northwest China kill 25
JULY 8,10

BEIJING (AFP) – Floods triggered by torrential rain in a remote part of northwestern China have killed 25 people, local authorities said Thursday.Heavy rain and hail storms have hit parts of Qinghai province over the past few days, damaging more than 6,300 houses, the provincial civil affairs department said in a statement.The disaster comes just months after a 6.9-magnitude quake struck the province on April 14, killing nearly 2,700 people and flattening thousands of homes in a remote Tibetan area.Authorities said three people are still missing in the Qinghai floods.

Torrential rain caused havoc across a wide area of southern China last month, killing 266 people and leaving 199 missing, according to government figures.According to the China News Service, the government has recorded 483 flood-related deaths in China so far this year, with 255 people still missing.Floods have caused nearly 91 billion yuan (13.4 billion dollars) in economic losses and led to the evacuation of 5.1 million people so far this year, the report said.Despite the flooding, much of northern China has baked this week in soaring temperatures, with the mercury rising past 40 degrees Centigrade (104 Fahrenheit) in some areas, but the heatwave has abated somewhat.

S. California earthquake related to Easter temblor By RAQUEL MARIA DILLON, Associated Press Writer - JULY 8,10

LOS ANGELES – The moderate earthquake that rattled through Southern California with only minor damage and no injuries came as no surprise to seismologists, who said it was triggered by a much larger April temblor near the U.S.-Mexico border.The 5.4-magnitude earthquake rattled buildings in downtown Los Angeles Wednesday, toppled wine bottles at desert resorts and briefly halted rides at Disneyland.It was centered 28 miles south of Palm Springs and was related to the powerful Easter Day quake, but was not an aftershock, researchers said.California Institute of Technology Seismologist Kate Hutton said the 7.2-magnitude quake in April transferred stress to fault zones farther north, triggering the quake that was felt from San Diego to Los Angeles to Las Vegas on Wednesday afternoon.Preliminary information indicates the quake was on the San Jacinto fault, the most seismically active fault in California and one of two that exhibited signs of increased pressure following the Mexico quake, according to a recent airborne analysis by the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory.The upshot is that the Easter quake appeared to have decreased the stress on the southernmost San Andreas Fault — slightly lowering the chance of a quake on the mother of California faults.You can't predict earthquakes, but our statistics said there would be an increased chance of this happening, said California Instituted of Technology seismic analyst Anthony Guarino.The moderate earthquake rattled buildings 130 miles away in downtown Los Angeles, toppled wine bottles at desert resorts and send people scurrying under desks and tables across the Coachella Valley.

There were no reports of injuries or major damage.The quake struck at about 4:53 p.m. and was followed by dozens of aftershocks, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.Laura Anderson, a manager at The Palms at Indian Head Hotel, said she ran outside when the shaking started and was surprised to learn the temblor's magnitude wasn't higher.It was enough to knock over some wine bottles and some pictures fell off the wall, Anderson said.Police Lt. John Booth said there were no reports of serious damage or injuries in Palm Springs, a desert city of about 43,000, but the phone rang off the hook and many residents were shaken up by the largest quake they could remember.

Central Canadians may get relief from heat Friday
The Canadian Press Thursday Jul. 8, 2010 8:18 AM ET

TORONTO — The heat wave continues again today across central Canada -- but the good news is the temperature should start to drop tomorrow. Millions of people in Quebec and Ontario will have to cope again today with temperatures into the mid-30s and humidex readings into the 40s. So far, Ontario has been able to deal with the demand for power from air conditioners -- largely because of a drop in demand from the hard-hit manufacturing sector. Hydro Quebec says it can deal with the demand since Quebecers tend to consume more energy in the winter.The heat also saw health emergency calls spike in both Toronto and Montreal as people with breathing problems suffer from the smog.Environment Canada predicts Ontario and Quebec will experience higher than normal temperatures until August.Queen's University professor Harry McCaughey, who studies climate change, says there will be more frequent extreme heat waves and cold snaps in the future.

Temperatures ease in East, but misery persists
JULY 8,10

NEW YORK – Forecasters say a heat wave will continue to plague parts of the Northeast but should leave New York alone beginning Thursday.An official heat wave requires prolonged temperatures of 90 or above. Meteorologist Lauren Nash of the National Weather Service says the forecast in New York is for a high of 89.Stifling heat is expected to continue in Philadelphia, Washington and other parts of the East, where temperatures are expected to remain in the mid-90s through Friday.Triple-digit temperatures broke records up and down the coast earlier in the week. The heat has been blamed for a handful of deaths in the Northeast and beyond.

CAIRO – The head of the Arab League says indirect talks between Israel and the Palestinians are failing and sees no chance for a shift to direct negotiations.Amr Moussa says senior Arab diplomats will meet July 29 to evaluate the results of the indirect talks, which started in May.But he says the sides have made no tangible progress so far and we are now facing the failure of these negotiations.Moussa spoke Thursday after meeting with Mideast envoy Tony Blair.Senior Palestinian official Nabil Shaath, who also met Moussa, said the Palestinian Authority will submit a report at the July meeting about peace, Israeli occupation and the Gaza blockade, and urged the Arabs to adopt a unified position on these issues.The Arab League approved indirect talks in May.

Israel says images show Hezbollah's intentions By ARON HELLER, Associated Press Writer - JULY 8,10

JERUSALEM – The Israeli military says aerial photographs of alleged Hezbollah weapons depots in southern Lebanon demonstrate the threat from the group, but officials say imminent military action against the Islamist militants is unlikely.

Military spokeswoman Lt. Col. Avital Leibovich said Thursday that Israel was releasing the material to remind the world who Hezbollah is and what their aspirations are.Israel and Hezbollah fought a monthlong war in 2006. Nearly 1,200 people died in Lebanon and another 159 died in Israel.Israeli security officials said another round of violence between Israel and Hezbollah did not appear imminent. Rather, Israel made the material public to warn Hezbollah to get rid of the munitions or face consequences.

3 Greenpeace activists disrupt Israel-bound ship
Thu Jul 8, 5:14 am ET

JERUSALEM – Israel says it has arrested three Greenpeace activists who sneaked onto an Israel-bound coal ship on the high seas to protest the country's plans to build a new coal-fueled power plant.Greenpeace spokeswoman Hila Krupsky said on Thursday that the activists trailed the Orient Venus vessel on one of the group's ships.She says they got into inflatable dinghies and boarded the coal ship using rope ladders. They then barricaded themselves to a mast and put up a banner saying: Coal Kills.

Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld says police later escorted the three were off the ship. The protest delayed the delivery of the coal to the northern city of Hadera by several hours.Israel maintains a coal-fired power station in Hadera and plans to build another in southern Israel.

Israel PM offers settlement talks if peace talks resume by Steve Weizman – Wed Jul 7, 11:18 pm ET

NEW YORK (AFP) – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pledged that the future of Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank would be among the first issues to be negotiated if the Palestinians resume direct peace talks.One of the things we'll discuss right away is settlements, and that's what I propose doing, he said in an interview on CNN television.Netanyahu flew into New York earlier in the day from Washington where he met President Barack Obama on Tuesday.The US administration had been hoping that Netanyahu might extend a 10-month freeze on settlement due to expire in September, but Obama appeared to accept that Netanyahu was neither willing nor able to deliver an extension.Netanyahu's coalition government leans heavily on hawks, bitterly opposed to any limits on settlement in the West Bank, on land which the Palestinians claim for a future state.Obama, hoping to take some of the sting out of the settlement dispute called for direct peace talks to begin well before the moratorium has expired.In Wednesday's CNN interview Netanyahu repeated his call for Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas to come to the negotiating table right now, we don't need any pretext or precondition.He accepted interviewer Larry King's proposal to talk to Abbas in a three-way television hookup with Jordan's King Abdullah if the other parties agreed.The Palestinians froze direct negotiations in December 2008, when Israel launched a deadly 22-day offensive into the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip, in a bid to halt cross-border rocket attacks.Earlier Wednesday Netanyahu addressed American Jewish leaders in New York, where he illustrated the deep bonds between Israel and the United States by recalling the first hours after the September 11, 2001 attacks in New York and Washington.

There were reactions that were different throughout the Middle East, he said.In many places there were celebrations, in Israel people wept, they grieved.America has no better friend, no better ally than the state of Israel,he added.He told the audience that other issues which would have to be enshrined in negotiations with the Palestinians were assurances that a Palestinian state would be demilitarized and unable to smuggle in heavy weaponry such as rockets.Another, he said, was recognition of Israel as a Jewish state, meaning that Palestinian refugees would have to settle in the Palestinian state and forego claims to return to homes in what is now Israel.Netanyahu expressed his country's security concerns earlier Wednesday, in talks with Defense Minister Robert Gates, before leaving Washington.Among them, an Israeli official said, was the fear that once US troops leave Iraq, Israel could again face threats from the east for the first time in the past decade.Saddam Hussein fired several Scud missiles into Israel during the first Gulf war, but the comment was also seen as a reference to Israel's wish to remain in the Jordan Valley as part of a final peace deal, with the Israeli military acting as a buffer between the eastern flank of a Palestinian state and Jordan.The officials said that Netanyahu had also discussed with Gates the possibility of Israel buying unspecified defense products from the United States in order to maintain its strategic advantage over its neighbors.

Gates's press secretary, Geoff Morrell, said the conversation focused largely on our efforts to help Israel continue to bolster its security in the face of regional threats.In addition to ongoing efforts to assist Israel's deployment of systems to protect against ballistic missile and rocket attacks, Secretary Gates committed to also help Israel develop new defenses against emerging threats to its security, said Morrell, without elaborating.

IMF presses US to cut debt by Andrew Beatty - JULY 8,10

WASHINGTON (AFP) – The International Monetary Fund on Thursday urged the United States to rein in its ballooning budget deficit without putting the modest economic recovery at risk.Amid jitters that high levels of unemployment may force a double dip recession, the IMF warned the slow US recovery would continue and that debt problems loomed.The central challenge is to develop a credible fiscal strategy to ensure that public debt is put -- and is seen to be put -- on a sustainable path without putting the recovery in jeopardy, an IMF report said.The balance between spending to stimulate the economy and putting budgets in order has vexed countries around the world as the recovery has looked more and more precarious.President Barack Obama has plowed nearly a trillion dollars into the economy to spur economic growth, exploding the US deficit to a level that many believe is unsustainable.The IMF praised US efforts to cut the long-term deficit through health system reform, but said more needed to be done now.The authorities' commitment to halve the budget deficit by 2013, and intention to stabilize public debt at just over 70 percent of GDP by 2015 are welcome, although much remains to be done to achieve these aims.At a recent summit of the Group of 20 leading economies in Toronto, Obama vowed to halve the deficit within three years.

But the IMF projected that the deficit will stand at 64 percent of gross domestic product this year, rising to just over 96 percent by 2020.In June, the total US debt topped 13 trillion dollars for the first time in history, stoking a political furor over government spending.Stemming the flow of red ink has become a contentious political issue in Washington, with Democrats and Republicans trading barbs about who is to blame.The IMF also cautioned that the recovery would still be slow.While still modest by historical standards, the recovery has proved stronger than we had earlier expected,it said.The outlook has improved in tandem with the recovery, but remaining household and financial balance sheet weaknesses -- along with elevated unemployment -- are likely to continue to restrain private spending.The IMF on Thursday raised its global growth forecast for this year despite renewed financial turbulence stemming from a European debt crisis that has sharply raised potential risks.The fund projected the world will grow by 4.6 percent, up from its 4.2 percent forecast in April, reflecting stronger activity during the first half of 2010 and expectations of fiscal action, especially in Europe.In 2010, the United States, the world's largest economy, was expected to grow by 3.3 percent, the eurozone by 1.0 percent and developing Asia by 9.2 percent.China and India were forecast to lead Asian growth with rates of 10.5 percent and 9.4 percent respectively.

European Central Bank welcomes stress tests By GEIR MOULSON, Associated Press Writer - JULY 8,10

BERLIN – European Central Bank head Jean-Claude Trichet welcomed European leaders' pledge to publish the results of stress tests on banks and indicated Thursday that the need to calm markets by buying troubled government bonds appears to be diminishing.Trichet also sounded an upbeat note on the 16-nation eurozone's economy after the bank kept its benchmark refinancing rate untouched at a record low of 1 percent, saying that recent data don't support excessively pessimistic views.With rates on hold and no sign of any move soon, much of the attention after Thursday's decision focused in part on the planned July 23 publication of stress tests on European banks, intended to reassure markets worried that some banks might be hiding losses on government bonds and other debt from financially troubled countries such as Greece, Portugal and Spain.Trichet dismissed suggestions that the outcome could add to Europe's ongoing debt crisis by revealing new problems. He said the ECB has been convinced since the very beginning that transparency has its virtue, and that it is good that the market ... can see exactly what is the result of those tests.

We think that it is confidence-building,he told reporters.Trichet welcomed European Union leaders' pledge last month to disclose results of individual banks' tests in an effort to dispel such fears.The tests are designed to show how banks would do if circumstances worsen. Trichet said that appropriate action will have to be taken where needed but went into little detail of the ECB's expectations.The tests will cover 91 banks in Europe, representing 65 percent of the European banking sector.On a related front, Trichet appeared satisfied with the smooth expiry last week of a record batch of unusual 12-month loans to banks, aimed at supporting the financial system with added ready cash.As the euro442 billion ($557 billion) in credit came due, the ECB lent a lower-than-expected euro131.9 billion to banks for the three months; banks that apparently are more confident borrowed euro111.2 billion in a six-day operation.Trichet said that we are still in a mode ... of unlimited supply of liquidity over periods of up to three months.

He also gave no indication as to when the ECB might end the program it launched in May, in the depths of the debt crisis, to buy eurozone government bonds. That was aimed at boosting investors' confidence in government debt and helping countries avoid default.We have the feeling — but we will continue to observe that with great attention — that what is needed in terms of level of interventions on our part has been progressively diminishing, Trichet said.The ECB president didn't offer new hints on when it might start raising interest rates, unchanged since May 2009.After economic activity strengthened during the spring, eurozone gross domestic product is expected to keep growing at a moderate and still uneven pace, in an environment of high uncertainty,he said — with inflation rates remaining moderate in 2011.While Trichet struck a somewhat more positive note on the financial sector, we continue to see the first rate hike only in the second half of 2011,said Carsten Brzeski, an economist at ING in Brussels.It looked as if Trichet's main objective was to convey confidence, he added.Whether this was just whistling in the dark or deep conviction remains to be seen.Also Thursday, the Bank of England left its base interest rate at a record low of 0.5 percent for the 17th straight month and left its asset purchasing program on hold. Britain's economic recovery remains fragile and public spending cuts are expected to hamper future growth.

The G-20 Agreed to Strangle Us With Debt
Daniel henrymakow.com July 7, 2010

According to most media reports, the recent Toronto G20 summit was a failure. However, if one understands that the real goal is not to repair the economy but indeed crippling it in order to impose a dreadful, new formula of global governance on mankind, then the G20 summit was a resounding success, albeit a sinister one.As, what was the outcome of that weekend in late June 2010? The participating nations — or should one say: the Politburo of the World? — brought forth a quite substantial closing declaration, almost a treaty, defining their brutal goals as well as their time-line.Ever angelic and in distant pre-1989 times, committed Marxist-Leninist, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who has assumed the leading role in advancing this new formula of de-facto-communist world government, said We are going to [stop] our economic stimulus policies, through which we used to run into even more debt, and will as industrial nations halve our new debts until 2013.And in a second step, from 2013 to 2016, the G20 agreed to gradually reach zero new debt – which means, of course, even more economic contraction.But after 2016 comes the real thing: paying back all national debt, as ever with interest and compound interest!!! The monetary magicians from whom we (as states, as companies, or as private persons) have been borrowing valueless, out-of-thin-air paper over decades and centuries, now demand their money this time, however, real value and real property.As Chancellor Merkel explains that time mark of 2016,That means that countries should then have reached balanced budgets so to take into view the reduction of the sum total of debt itself.

Mankind will get utterly strangled. And, no question, the result of this programme will be horrendous poverty, starvation, and death on an unimaginable scale, like all sick Hollywood doomsday movies combined, with this one single bizarre objective: the creation of a radically New World, with a sharply reduced population (less than 10% of present levels) and thoroughly cleansed of all the superstition and traditional sentiment of the old days. In other words: French Revolution plus Bolshevist Revolution revisited! - But, don’t worry, Mutti, as the Germans call Angela Merkel has a word of comfort: This exit strategy out of debt-financed economy stimulus policy will be very demanding and for many certainly a big task.

THE US DEBT

As of July 6, 2010, the United States’ outstanding public debt amounts to 13.2 trillion dollars. Divided by an estimated population of 308,690,000, this makes a per capita public debt only, from newborn to geriatric, of roughly $42,760.Then add the suicidal load of private debt most Americans are struggling under, though more often self-inflicted than not, and you get the perfect foundation for ultimate enslavement. For other industrial countries the same story basically applies.A few months ago, at the peak of the Greek fiscal crisis, the Director of the International Monetary Fund, Dominique Strauss-Kahn, left, was asked by one journalist how he can be so sure that the IMF will ever get back the money from insolvent Greece.His answer, with a relaxed smile on his lips, was that so far they’d never had any problems. Why they can be confident? Because they are in the position to make sure they get what they want.

SPECTER OF CARBON TAX

Finally, we’re not only dealing with this murderously abrupt shift of paradigms from an insane culture of debt to an ultra-disciplined culture of alleged economic truth (that applies only for us, not for our money-lenders).There is also the pressure from the anthropogenic climate change front (it’s all one and the same hidden hand at work anyway) that makes things even a thousand times more absurd.Therefore, on top of all debt reduction comes the monstrous threat of huge, whatever fictitious, carbon taxation – for which purpose the Deepwater Horizon catastrophe could well have been most cynically designed, not only to debunk the United States once and for all but also to bring everybody over to the anti-fossil-fuel and heavy CO2-taxation side.It’s clear they’re determined to break our backbone by whatever means, and there are many. And unless they can be stopped or a miracle happens (there still rules God in Heaven), we won’t recognize our world, say, in ten years’ time.In fact, our world, the world as we know it, the world we grew up into, the world that we loved and admired and traveled through, will be gone.

Afterthought: Has anybody had a revelation from the Toronto-G-20 logo? A mere depiction of Toronto’s huge CN Tower? Look at it again! Could this have been meant perhaps as a covert depiction of a bird’s claw held, controlled, and thereby imprisoned by a metal ring? If that symbolism applies, we have yet another confirmation of where we are heading: imprisonment! – And what was the cynical Valentine’s Day 2008 recommendation of then President and now Prime Minister of the still perfectly intact Soviet Union resp. RSFSR, now relabeled as Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin? Remember? Addressing the OSCE who had finally decided, after much harassment by the Russian authorities, not to monitor the Russian Presidential elections of 2008, Putin in his last and quite ceremonial press conference as President of Russia gave yet another example of his Khrushchev-type hot temper and brutality: Well, he boasted,let them teach their wives to make cabbage soup! As we can exclude him talking about some Weight Watchers’ diet, the only meaning remains: prepare for poverty!

Ron Paul: More Power for the Fed
Dr. Ron Paul Infowars.com July 7, 2010

Last week I was pleased to see my Republican colleagues take up the cause to fully and completely audit the Federal Reserve by including my language from the Federal Reserve Transparency Act in a Motion to Recommit the financial regulation reform bill. Although this effort was defeated by the Democrat majority, there were many good reasons to support it.The Federal Reserve Transparency Act would eliminate restrictions on GAO audits of the Federal Reserve and open Fed operations to Congressional oversight. Additionally, audits could include discount window operations, open market operations, and agreements with foreign central banks, such as the ongoing dollar swap operations with European central banks.Since its inception, the Federal Reserve has always operated in the shadows, without sufficient scrutiny or oversight, while Congress has kept its hands off and its eyes closed. The Federal Reserve has presided over the near-complete destruction of the United States dollar. Since 1913 the dollar has lost over 95% its purchasing power, aided and abetted by the Federal Reserve’s loose monetary policy. The Federal Reserve Transparency Act would achieve much-needed transparency of the Federal Reserve System.

However, House and Senate negotiators failed to include the full language of my legislation in the conference report for the financial reform bill, and the full Congress missed yet another opportunity to demand accountability from the Federal Reserve by defeating the Republicans’ motion to recommit. Over 320 members of Congress from both parties cosponsored my original bill, which was incorporated into that motion to recommit. Almost 200 members of Congress who care about Federal Reserve transparency voted for this motion to recommit. Unfortunately, they found themselves in the minority.Any legitimate objections to the audit proposal were addressed in the language of the motion to recommit. Thus, it is clear that the real reasons for opposing it are unstated and indefensible. The real reasons are that politicians like to spend money far exceeding income and it is convenient to have an enabler of this in the Federal Reserve. The easier it is for the Fed to create money, hidden from public view and accountability, the easier it is for politicians to spend that money and make sure their friends and interests are taken care of through shady political processes.The broader reasons for supporting this entire financial regulatory reform bill are just as sinister. This is not about cracking down on big banks as some claim. Rather, this is about not wasting a crisis. This is about using a traumatic event to increase government power and control over the economy. If it was really about addressing the causes of this recession, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac would have been dealt with, or abolished. Failed companies would just fail, rather than being bailed out. Instead, a permanent bailout mechanism is being established. The Fed, and its ability to control interest rates and create cheap money, would be reformed or better yet, abolished. But instead its power is being increased and this Congress refuses to even fully audit it! So yet again in the midst of a crisis, government insists on acting, and in ways far outside the scope of the Constitution, hoping that the crisis gives them cover. The truth is that in crises is when we need Constitutional limitations the most.

By now, you probably think your opinion of Goldman Sachs and its swarm of Wall Street allies has rock-bottomed at raw loathing. You're wrong. There's more. It turns out that the most destructive of all their recent acts has barely been discussed at all. Here's the rest. This is the story of how some of the richest people in the world – Goldman, Deutsche Bank, the traders at Merrill Lynch, and more – have caused the starvation of some of the poorest people in the world. It starts with an apparent mystery. At the end of 2006, food prices across the world started to rise, suddenly and stratospherically. Within a year, the price of wheat had shot up by 80 per cent, maize by 90 per cent, rice by 320 per cent. In a global jolt of hunger, 200 million people – mostly children – couldn't afford to get food any more, and sank into malnutrition or starvation. There were riots in more than 30 countries, and at least one government was violently overthrown. Then, in spring 2008, prices just as mysteriously fell back to their previous level. Jean Ziegler, the UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Food, calls it a silent mass murder, entirely due to man-made actions.Earlier this year I was in Ethiopia, one of the worst-hit countries, and people there remember the food crisis as if they had been struck by a tsunami. My children stopped growing,a woman my age called Abiba Getaneh, told me.I felt like battery acid had been poured into my stomach as I starved. I took my two daughters out of school and got into debt. If it had gone on much longer, I think my baby would have died.Most of the explanations we were given at the time have turned out to be false. It didn't happen because supply fell: the International Grain Council says global production of wheat actually increased during that period, for example. It isn't because demand grew either: as Professor Jayati Ghosh of the Centre for Economic Studies in New Delhi has shown, demand actually fell by 3 per cent. Other factors – like the rise of biofuels, and the spike in the oil price – made a contribution, but they aren't enough on their own to explain such a violent shift.

To understand the biggest cause, you have to plough through some concepts that will make your head ache – but not half as much as they made the poor world's stomachs ache. For over a century, farmers in wealthy countries have been able to engage in a process where they protect themselves against risk. Farmer Giles can agree in January to sell his crop to a trader in August at a fixed price. If he has a great summer, he'll lose some cash, but if there's a lousy summer or the global price collapses, he'll do well from the deal. When this process was tightly regulated and only companies with a direct interest in the field could get involved, it worked.
Then, through the 1990s, Goldman Sachs and others lobbied hard and the regulations were abolished. Suddenly, these contracts were turned into derivatives that could be bought and sold among traders who had nothing to do with agriculture. A market in food speculation was born. So Farmer Giles still agrees to sell his crop in advance to a trader for £10,000. But now, that contract can be sold on to speculators, who treat the contract itself as an object of potential wealth. Goldman Sachs can buy it and sell it on for £20,000 to Deutsche Bank, who sell it on for £30,000 to Merrill Lynch – and on and on until it seems to bear almost no relationship to Farmer Giles's crop at all.If this seems mystifying, it is. John Lanchester, in his superb guide to the world of finance, Whoops! Why Everybody Owes Everyone and No One Can Pay, explains: Finance, like other forms of human behaviour, underwent a change in the 20th century, a shift equivalent to the emergence of modernism in the arts – a break with common sense, a turn towards self-referentiality and abstraction and notions that couldn't be explained in workaday English.Poetry found its break with realism when T S Eliot wrote The Wasteland. Finance found its Wasteland moment in the 1970s, when it began to be dominated by complex financial instruments that even the people selling them didn't fully understand.

So what has this got to do with the bread on Abiba's plate? Until deregulation, the price for food was set by the forces of supply and demand for food itself. (This was already deeply imperfect: it left a billion people hungry.) But after deregulation, it was no longer just a market in food. It became, at the same time, a market in food contracts based on theoretical future crops – and the speculators drove the price through the roof. Here's how it happened. In 2006, financial speculators like Goldmans pulled out of the collapsing US real estate market. They reckoned food prices would stay steady or rise while the rest of the economy tanked, so they switched their funds there. Suddenly, the world's frightened investors stampeded on to this ground. So while the supply and demand of food stayed pretty much the same, the supply and demand for derivatives based on food massively rose – which meant the all-rolled-into-one price shot up, and the starvation began. The bubble only burst in March 2008 when the situation got so bad in the US that the speculators had to slash their spending to cover their losses back home.When I asked Merrill Lynch's spokesman to comment on the charge of causing mass hunger, he said: Huh. I didn't know about that.He later emailed to say: I am going to decline comment.Deutsche Bank also refused to comment. Goldman Sachs were more detailed, saying they sold their index in early 2007 and pointing out that serious analyses ... have concluded index funds did not cause a bubble in commodity futures prices, offering as evidence a statement by the OECD.How do we know this is wrong? As Professor Ghosh points out, some vital crops are not traded on the futures markets, including millet, cassava, and potatoes. Their price rose a little during this period – but only a fraction as much as the ones affected by speculation. Her research shows that speculation was the main cause of the rise.So it has come to this. The world's wealthiest speculators set up a casino where the chips were the stomachs of hundreds of millions of innocent people. They gambled on increasing starvation, and won. Their Wasteland moment created a real wasteland. What does it say about our political and economic system that we can so casually inflict so much pain? If we don't re-regulate, it is only a matter of time before this all happens again. How many people would it kill next time? The moves to restore the pre-1990s rules on commodities trading have been stunningly sluggish. In the US, the House has passed some regulation, but there are fears that the Senate – drenched in speculator-donations – may dilute it into meaninglessness. The EU is lagging far behind even this, while in Britain, where most of this "trade" takes place, advocacy groups are worried that David Cameron's government will block reform entirely to please his own friends and donors in the City.

Only one force can stop another speculation-starvation-bubble. The decent people in developed countries need to shout louder than the lobbyists from Goldman Sachs. The World Development Movement is launching a week of pressure this summer as crucial decisions on this are taken: text WDM to 82055 to find out what you can do. The last time I spoke to her, Abiba said: We can't go through that another time. Please – make sure they never, never do that to us again.j.hari@independent.co.uk

Parliament delays crucial vote on European financial supervision
ANDREW WILLIS Today JULY 7,10 @ 09:23 CET

EUOBSERVER / STRASBOURG - MEPs have decided to delay a key vote on legislation setting up a new European financial supervisory framework, giving negotiators more time to reduce the policy gap between parliament and member states. Instead of voting on the overall legislative package on Wednesday (7 July), parliament will adopt a political declaration outlining its position regarding a series of new EU authorities to monitor Europe's banking, insurance and securities sectors.
Negotiators will then continue tough discussions with member states, represented by the Belgian EU presidency, so that the new laws can be agreed during a first reading, rather than the inevitable two if Wednesday's vote had gone ahead. European Commissioner Olli Rehn welcomed the decision. While I somehow regret that parliament will not be able to vote ... now, I am still delighted by the clear willingness shown by all to reach an agreement by September,he told MEPs on Tuesday. All sides are aware that a 1 January, 2011, deadline to have the new system up and running is in danger of slipping, creating a potential embarrassment as the United States prepares to push ahead with its own similar reforms later this month.MEPs made a number of concessions in late-night talks on Monday evening in a bid to close the gap with national governments, several of which are highly wary of handing the three new watchdogs tough powers to oversee Europe's financial sector.The package of legislation also involves the setting up a new European Systemic Risk Board (ESRB) to monitor for the build up of risks in the bloc's financial system as a whole.

The UK in particular does not want the three European authorities to be able to make decisions over the heads of national regulators, argueing that this could impinge on a member states' fiscal autonomy, forcing it to carry out a bank recapitalisation against its will, for example.EU leaders reached a political compromise in December, but MEPs subsequently slammed the deal as essentially giving national capitals a veto over decisions made by the authorities.Euro-deputies insist that the EU-level bodies must be given sufficient decision-making clout if Europe is to avoid a repeat of the recent financial crisis.The Council does not accept the direct supervision of European supervisory authorities and it does not accept binding decisions [by EU bodies] if there is a dispute between national supervisors, the parliament's Liberal leader, Guy Verhofstadt, explained on Monday evening after the talks broke down.

Concessions

The impasse comes despite suggestions that MEPs are willing to soften their demands in a number of areas, including their calls to have the new bodies based in Frankfurt, home of the European Central Bank. Another concession could entail allowing national governments to be the ones to decide when Europe's financial sector was in an 'emergency situation', a declaration that would confer on the ERSB extraordinary powers such as the ability to ban certain financial products or practices.MEPs had originally hope the ERSB or the European Commission could make the emergency call.Speaking in parliament on Tuesday, the EU's internal market and financial services commissioner, Michel Barnier, ramped up the pressure on member states to come to an agreement.The ball is in their court, said Mr Barnier, stressing that other EU legislation, including the regulation of credit rating agencies, depended on the swift implementation of the new authorities.This week's breakdown in talks means the topic is likely to gain a prominent position on the agenda of next week's meeting of EU finance ministers in Brussels.

MEPs look to new data protection battle with US
VALENTINA POP Today JULY 7,10 @ 09:25 CET

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS – After having forced extra privacy provisions into an EU-US deal on bank data snoops, the European Parliament is bracing itself for an even tougher battle on US access to personal information on air passengers.The EU parliament came to prominence in February when it used its new Lisbon Treaty powers to veto international agreements involving transfers of data by striking down the so-called Swift deal.The Swift pact - which allows US agents to sift EU bank data for evidence of terrorist financing - is now expected to pass a second vote on Thursday (8 July) with no problems after the EU commission inserted extra privacy provisions.

But an upcoming vote on the Passenger Name Record (PNR) scheme, which obliges every airline flying into or via the US to hand in all personal data on its passengers, is likely to prove tricky.The vote on the PNR will be more difficult, because our objections are stronger, Dutch Liberal MEP Sophie in't Veld, the parliament's rapporteur on PNR, told Euobserver after returning from an exploratory visit to the US last week.Similar to the bank data arrangement, PNR was set up in the aftermath of the 2001 terrorist attacks on Washington and New York, initially as a provisional deal which became a fully-fledged agreement. An EU court struck down the pact in 2006 after the European Parliament challenged its legal basis. A new deal was put in place in 2007 for seven years, but after the coming into force of the Lisbon Treaty, the legislature's consent is needed afresh.Ms in't Veld explained that instead of striking down PNR shortly after the entry into force of Lisbon last December, MEPs have given the EU commission the chance to first draw up a general mandate on PNR agreements and civil liberties safeguards which cane be used to amend the US pact. The commission proposals are due in autumn. We agreed to postpone the vote as a courtesy gesture, but that means we need an improved deal. All I hope is they are sensible enough to involve the parliament [in crafting the new mandate],Ms in't Veld said.Aware that the implications of a No vote would be greater than in the Swift case, with European carriers losing their licence to fly into the US, Ms in't Veld said she hope[s] it doesn't come to it.As it stands, the PNR deal allows US police, FBI and other intelligence gathering agencies to look at the personal data not only in terrorism cases, but also for serious crimes - a disputed term, which in the US refers to cross-border crimes punishable by at least three years in prison. When in one incident a child was taken back to Europe by its non-custodial parent, US authorities tracked the two down via PNR on charges of child abduction, despite the fact that in the EU this is not considered a serious crime.

We have to take a close look at the proportionality of this program. It's tough to asses, we are only given anecdotal cases, but there is a big difference between looking for known suspects and searching for potential criminals, the Dutch MEP said. Another sticking point is the data retention period of 15 years for all personal profiles, which are set up automatically whenever someone books a transatlantic flight, as well as the difficulty of changing or deleting data, for instance if a person is mistakenly put on a watch list.According to US officials, around 2,000 suspects are apprehended yearly thanks to the PNR scheme. PNR is an important tool. Last year, one third of the indiviuals identified as being involved in a nexus of terrorism came from PNR data, David Heyman, a senior advisor on counter-terrorism policies in the Department of Homeland Security told journalists in Washington during a briefing on 21 June.He said so far the European Commission has not indicated it wants to renegotiate the agreement, but added that the Obama administration is fully aware of the new powers acquired by the European Parliament.

We are aware of the post-Lisbon institutional changes. Europe is a complicated place, there are multiple layers of government, but the US is fully engaged with the EU,he said.

Record heat roasts US east by Sebastian Smith Sebastian Smith – Tue Jul 6, 7:49 pm ET

NEW YORK (AFP) – New York roasted in record temperatures Tuesday as a heat wave rolled across the eastern United States, pushing power companies to the limit and driving residents to municipal cooling centers.The National Weather Service measured 103 degrees Fahrenheit (39.45 Celsius) in Central Park in mid-Manhattan, easily breaking the 101 degrees record set for July 6 back in 1999.Soaring temperatures, often in the triple-digit range, also afflicted Washington, DC; Richmond, Virginia; Philadelphia, Pennsylvavia; and reached as far as Montreal, Canada.Electricity use surged through the densely populated eastern seaboard of the United States region as office buildings reopened after the long July 4th Independence Day weekend.Con Ed, a major utility company in the New York area, urged energy conservation during what was expected to be record demand for power, with customers putting air conditioners on overdrive and raiding freezers and fridges for refreshments.The National Weather Service issued a heat advisory, saying that heat and high humidity could prove dangerous for young children and the elderly.The NWS warned residents to drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out of the sun and check up on relatives and neighbors.Excessive heat advisories also were posted in New York City and Philadelphia, where authorities opened cooling stations -- air-conditioned rooms in schools and other neighborhood buildings where residents could get out of the cauldron.

New York's health and emergency management departments issued heat tips including keeping strenuous activity to between 4:00 and 7:00 am.The city government suggested residents without air conditioning at home either visit cooling centers or spend the day in the mall, museum or movie theater.For millions of children on summer vacation, splashing in city fountains and the time-honored option of tapping into fire hydrants provided instant relief.In a bid to prevent the illegal opening of hydrants, New York fire houses were issuing spray caps designed to keep the gush to a manageable level.Heather Buchman, a meteorologist for AccuWeather.com, warned on the website of a dangerous heat wave both for people and infrastructure.In addition to putting stress on people and their health, the intense heat will also place a higher demand on power grids due increased usage of air conditioning. Power outages could result in some communities, putting people at an even greater risk for developing heat-related illnesses, she said.New York State Governor David Paterson recommended New Yorkers reduce electricity use during the peak hours of 1:00 and 7:00pm.In August 2003 the entire US northeast and part of Canada were plunged into darkness when the power grid collapsed in one of the biggest outages in history.

Easterners seek respite as temps soar above 100 By JIM FITZGERALD and DAVID B. CARUSO, Associated Press Writers – Tue Jul 6, 5:38 pm ET

NEW YORK – The East Coast cooked under an unforgiving sun Tuesday as record-toppling temperatures soared to 100 or higher from Virginia to Massachusetts, utility companies cranked out power to cool the sweating masses and the unlucky sought any oasis they could find.The temperature hit 103 degrees in New York City and 102 in Philadelphia, breaking records for the day, both set in 1999. The temperature also soared past the century mark in Boston, Washington and Newark, N.J., and broke records in Providence, R.I., and Hartford, Conn.In downtown Philadelphia, pedestrians and drivers appeared to move a little more slowly amid the high humidity, blazing sun and baking sidewalks. Robert McCarron, 44, wore a navy suit and tie as he walked four blocks from a downtown subway station to an office building where he was due for a job interview.If I was going to a job, you'd better believe I wouldn't be wearing a suit, he said.This is rough, and it's only going to get hotter.After an extended Fourth of July weekend when temperatures inched into at least the 90s from Maine to Texas, The National Weather Service issued heat advisories until Wednesday night for much of the Northeast and mid-Atlantic, including an excessive heat warning for the Philadelphia area.

With people cranking up their air conditioning, energy officials predicted near-record demand for power. Utilities and regional electrical system operators cited ample generation capacity and expected no major blackouts, though, and just a smattering of power failures were reported.Even so, those without air conditioning were left to cope as they could. On the baking streets of the Bronx, 14-year-old Miguel Pena and 13-year-old Vincent Quiles walked their bicycles up a steep hill, white handkerchiefs around their heads to keep the sweat out of their eyes.Man, this stinks,Miguel said. We just got out of school and this is supposed to be when we have fun, but this is too much. We thought it would be cooler on the bike, but now we're going home. It's just too hot.Added Vincent: You can't breathe out here.The hot air is sitting over the top of us, and it's not really going to budge much for the next day or two,said Brian Korty, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Camp Springs, Md. After that, he said, a system coming in off the Atlantic Ocean would bring in cooler weather.Authorities in some places Tuesday began calling the hot stretch a heat wave, a phenomenon defined by at least three consecutive days of temperatures of 90 or above. Newark handily beat that threshold Tuesday, hitting at least 100 for the third day in a row.

It was so hot that even machines had to slow down. Transportation officials cut the speed of commuter trains in suburban Washington when the tracks got too hot because extreme heat can cause welded rails to bend under pressure.Workers at the Marine Mammal Stranding Center in Brigantine, N.J., used tubs of ice cubes to help four sick or weak seals keep cool.It wasn't much easier on animal lovers. In Massachusetts, Katie Wright was determined to follow through on her promise to take her children to a zoo.It's pretty ridiculous, Wright said as her 3-year-old son Jackson and 2-year-old daughter Emery watched owls and hawks at the Massachusetts Audubon's Drumlin Farm Wildlife Sanctuary in Lincoln.But we wanted to get out, so we brought hats, sunscreen, extra water and then promised the kids lunch at an air-conditioned restaurant.At his Manhattan newsstand, a steel kiosk that soaks up sun like a sponge, vendor Sam Doctor said the only way to keep cool was to splash his head with water, but he acknowledged that his system wouldn't last. Both of his soda-cooling refrigerators had already conked out by midmorning.When it's 100 degrees out there, it's 110 in here,he said, still smiling as he served customers.In Philadelphia, where the temperature was in the 80s before 7 a.m., 45-year-old Davey Adams waited in a subway station that was stagnant even before the morning commute began in earnest. He had spent the weekend in air-conditioned bliss at his son's house in New Jersey but had to return to his job Tuesday as a forklift driver in a warehouse. He said he planned to use cold water and a washcloth draped over his head to keep cool.

In New York, 13 firefighters were treated at a hospital after suffering dehydration and exhaustion while battling a blaze in Queens. The 42-year-old lieutenant governor of Massachusetts spent Monday night in a hospital after marching in five parades in 90-degree heat. Deaths blamed on the heat included a 92-year-old Philadelphia woman whose body was found Monday and a homeless woman found lying next to a car Sunday in suburban Detroit.In Washington, where the thermometer climbed to 100 degrees by mid-afternoon, President Barack Obama warned reporters about to leave the Oval Office: Stay cool out there. Hydrate.Even the queen of England had to cope after landing in New York during the hottest part of the day on her first visit to the city in more than three decades. The 84-year-old monarch addressed the United Nations, then paid tribute to victims of the Sept. 11 attacks.Contributing to this report were Associated Press writers Eva Dou, Verena Dobnik and Colleen Long in New York; Jeff McMillan and JoAnn Loviglio in Philadelphia; Geoff Mulvihill in Haddonfield, N.J.; Mark Pratt in Lincoln, Mass.; and Lauren Sausser in Washington.

Teen swept away in creek amid Okla. City flooding
Tue Jul 6, 10:44 pm ET

OKLAHOMA CITY – Emergency crews rescued stranded motorists and several children in a house trailer from flooded Oklahoma City streets but were searching for a teenage boy swept away by a creek.Oklahoma City Police say two teens were swept away by high water Tuesday when they either jumped or fell into the creek at a city park.A 14-year-old was rescued downstream, but his 13-year-old companion hadn't been found Tuesday evening.The National Weather Service issued a flash flood warning for several counties in the area after a storm system quickly dumped 2 inches of rain on some parts of the region.

BP's Hayward flies to Mideast to meet partners By ADAM SCHRECK, AP Business Writer - JULY 7,10

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates – BP's embattled CEO is in Abu Dhabi to meet business partners amid speculation that the oil giant is looking to drum up cash to cover clean up costs from the Gulf of Mexico oil spill.Chief Executive Tony Hayward arrived in the Emirati capital Tuesday and would be staying a couple of days, BP spokesman Andrew Gowers said. He would not say whether Hayward planned to sit down with the region's powerful investment funds.He's visiting partners as he does from time to time. He's conducting normal business, Gowers said.Hayward has been criticized for his handling of the oil spill in the U.S., and in recent days has traveled to other countries where BP operates to reassure the company's partners of its commitments.BP has a long-standing partnership with the Abu Dhabi National Oil Co., which is responsible for producing crude oil in the Arab emirate. Abu Dhabi is the capital of the seven-state UAE federation, and holds the bulk of the OPEC member's oil wealth.Hayward's visit comes as speculation swirls that BP might be looking for investment partners from the oil-rich Middle East.Abu Dhabi is home to some of the Arab Gulf's most influential sovereign wealth funds. BP shares rose earlier in the week amid reports that the company was reaching out to Gulf funds about investment opportunities in an attempt to fend off possible takeover bids.

The company said this week it would welcome new investors but had no plans to issue any new shares to help pay for the oil spill.BP shares have lost about half their value since the Deepwater Horizon oil rig exploded in April, causing the worst offshore oil spill in U.S. history.Gowers declined to say exactly who Hayward would be meeting with in Abu Dhabi or where he was headed next.He may go somewhere else. But we're not commenting on where he goes ahead of time,he said.Hayward arrived in Abu Dhabi from the capital of oil-rich Azerbaijan, where he tried to calm fears BP might sell assets there to help pay for the spill clean up. While in Baku, Hayward met with Azerbaijan President Ilkham Aliyev.The BP CEO also met with Russian officials in Moscow last week. Following those meetings, an official at the company's Russian joint venture TNK-BP said that firm would consider buying some of BP's assets if they were put up for sale.

Tony Blair tipped to take over as chairman of crisit-hit BP
By Bob Roberts 23/06/2010

Tony Blair was yesterday being touted as the man to rescue stricken BP.City experts reckon appointing the ex Prime Minister as chairman is the first step to saving the company after the Gulf of Mexico oil spill disaster.They highlighted his huge popularity in America and his close links to BP as Premier.City expert Matthew Lynn said: Anyone who watched chief executive Tony Hayward struggle to find a voice while being skewered by Congress last week would have realised the company needs to step up its debating skills by about 1,000%.This is essentially a political crisis, so why not a politician? Traders are already betting on Blair replacing chairman Carl-Henric Svanberg.Since leaving office, the ex-PM has worked as a Middle East peace broker and has a number of directorships.BP's reputation continues to plummet as fast as its share price, which hit a 13-year low at 334 yesterday - a 50% plunge since the Deepwater Horizon spill began.In yet another PR humiliation at the weekend, Mr Hayward went sailing round the Isle of Wight as the stricken rig continued to spew oil off Louisiana. He has now handed day-to-day responsibility for the disaster to managing director Bob Dudley.Chief of staff Steve Westwell was heckled by Greenpeace protesters at an oil conference in central London yesterday. Celebrities including Sting and Robert Redford have appeared in a fundraiser on America's Larry King Live Show to help the clean-up.

Monday, Jul 5, 2010 13:06 ET The BP/Government police state
By Glenn Greenwald ABC/CNN In June, Adm. Thad Allen told ABC, Media will have uninhibited access anywhere we're doing operations.The new rule contradicts that statement.(updated below - Update II [Tues.])

Last week, I interviewed Mother Jones' Mac McClelland, who has been covering the BP oil spill in the Gulf since the first day it happened. She detailed how local police and federal officials work with BP to harass, impede, interrogate and even detain journalists who are covering the impact of the spill and the clean-up efforts. She documented one incident which was particularly chilling of an activist who -- after being told by a local police officer to stop filming a BP facility because BP didn't want him filming -- was then pulled over after he left by that officer so he could be interrogated by a BP security official. McClelland also described how BP has virtually bought entire Police Departments which now do its bidding:One parish has 57 extra shifts per week that they are devoting entirely to, basically, BP security detail, and BP is paying the sheriff's office.Today, an article that is a joint collaboration between PBS' Frontline and ProPublica reported that a BP refinery in Texas spewed tens of thousands of pounds of toxic chemicals into the skies two weeks before the company's rig in the Gulf collapsed. Accompanying that article was this sidebar report:A photographer taking pictures for these articles, was detained Friday while shooting pictures in Texas City, Texas.

The photographer, Lance Rosenfield, said that shortly after arriving in town, he was confronted by a BP security officer, local police and a man who identified himself as an agent of the Department of Homeland Security. He was released after the police reviewed the pictures he had taken on Friday and recorded his date of birth, Social Security number and other personal information.The police officer then turned that information over to the BP security guard under what he said was standard procedure, according to Rosenfield.

No charges were filed.

Rosenfield, an experienced freelance photographer, said he was detained shortly after shooting a photograph of a Texas City sign on a public roadway. Rosenfield said he was followed by a BP employee in a truck after taking the picture and blocked by two police cars when he pulled into a gas station.According to Rosenfield, the officers said they had a right to look at photos taken near secured areas of the refinery, even if they were shot from public property. Rosenfield said he was told he would be taken in if he declined to comply.ProPublica's Paul Steiger said that the reporting team told law enforcement agents that they were working on a deadline for this story about that facility, and that even if DHS agents believed they had a legitimate reason to scrutinize the actions and photographs of this photographer, there was no reason that should have included sharing them with a representative of a private company.These are true police state tactics, and it's now clear that it is part of a pattern. It's been documented for months now that BP and government officials have been acting in unison to block media coverage of the area; Newsweek reported this in late May:As BP makes its latest attempt to plug its gushing oil well, news photographers are complaining that their efforts to document the slow-motion disaster in the Gulf of Mexico are being thwarted by local and federal officials -- working with BP -- who are blocking access to the sites where the effects of the spill are most visible. More than a month into the disaster, a host of anecdotal evidence is emerging from reporters, photographers, and TV crews in which BP and Coast Guard officials explicitly target members of the media, restricting and denying them access to oil-covered beaches, staging areas for clean-up efforts, and even flyovers.

The very idea that government officials are acting as agents of BP (of all companies) in what clearly seem to be unconstitutional acts to intimidate and impede the media is infuriating. Obviously, the U.S. Government and BP share the same interest -- preventing the public from knowing the magnitude of the spill and the inadequacy of the clean-up efforts -- but this creepy police state behavior is intolerable. In this latest case, the journalists were not even focused on the spill itself, but on BP's other potentially reckless behavior with other refineries, and yet there are DHS agents and local police officials acting as BP's personal muscle to detain, interrogate, and threaten a photographer. BP's destructive conduct, and the government's complicity, have slowly faded from public attention, and there clearly seem to be multiple levels of law enforcement devoted to keeping it that way, no matter how plainly illegal their tactics are.

UPDATE: More evidence here (h/t bamage):Journalists who come too close to oil spill clean-up efforts without permission could find themselves facing a $40,000 fine and even one to five years in prison under a new rule instituted by the Coast Guard late last week.It's a move that outraged observers have decried as an attack on First Amendment rights. And CNN's Anderson Cooper describes the new rules as making it very easy to hide incompetence or failure. . . .[S]ince oil spill response operations apparently covers much of the clean-up effort on the beaches, CNN's [] Cooper describes the rule as banning reporters from anywhere we need to be. . . .A willful violation of the new rule could result in Class D felony charges, which carry a penalty of one to five years in prison under federal law.The new rule appears to contradict the promises made by Adm. Thad Allen, the official leading the Coast Guard's response to the oil spill.Media will have uninhibited access anywhere we're doing operations, except for two things, if it's a security or safety problem, Allen told ABC News in June. . . .[T]o create a blanket rule that everyone has to stay 65 feet away from boom and boats, that doesn't sound like transparency, [said Cooper].The rule has come under severe criticism not only from journalists but from observers and activists involved in the Gulf Coast clean-up.

With this, the Gulf Coast cleanup operation has now entered a weird Orwellian reality where the news is shaped, censored and controlled by the government in order to prevent the public from learning the truth about what's really happening,writes Mike Adams at NaturalNews. . . .Reporters have been complaining for weeks about BP, the Department of Homeland Security and the Coast Guard working to keep reporters away from wrenching images of oil-covered birds and oil-soaked beaches.We've frequently heard excuses that the Federal Government has little power to do anything to BP, but they certainly seem to have ample power to do a great deal for them. Public indifference about such things is the by-product of those who walk around like drones repeating the mantra that political officials know what's best about what must be kept secret, and that the Threat of Terrorism (which is what is exploited to justify such acts) means we must meekly acquiesce to such powers in the name of Staying Safe.

UPDATE II: From The New York Times, June 9, 2010:Journalists struggling to document the impact of the oil rig explosion have repeatedly found themselves turned away from public areas affected by the spill, and not only by BP and its contractors, but by local law enforcement, the Coast Guard and government officials.To some critics of the response effort by BP and the government, instances of news media being kept at bay are just another example of a broader problem of officials’ filtering what images of the spill the public sees.This is clearly a deliberate and systematic pattern of preventing access and coverage that has been going on since the beginning of the spill. And, as we find in so many realms, it's impossible to know where government actions end and corporate actions begin because the line basically does not exist.

EU-Chinese misunderstanding on the rise, senior Beijing official warns
ANDREW WILLIS Today JULY 7,10 @ 09:28 CET

EUOBSERVER / STRASBOURG - China's deputy foreign minister has warned that the level of misunderstanding between Brussels and Beijing is on the rise, despite the EU's new architectural framework, designed in part to improve the bloc's dialogue with the international community. Ms Fu Ying made the comments in an interview with EUobserver in Strasbourg on Tuesday (6 July), ahead of a series of meetings with senior European Parliament officials.I think the misunderstanding is strong on the European side and is growing on the Chinese side as well, said Ms Fu, whose portfolio includes handling her country's relations with Europe and Taiwan. Since 2008, the perceived China-bashing sentiment of European countries has hurt China and Chinese people, explained Beijing's most senior female official, whose previous positions include three years as ambassador to the UK. And while China hopes for an improvement under the Lisbon Treaty, the EU's new rulebook that creates a stronger foreign policy supremo in the shape of Catherine Ashton, so far there has been little tangible evidence of change.I'm not saying the new position is not working, it [simply] hasn't started very much yet, said Ms Fu of the seven-month old post, conceding that she has never spoken to Ms Ashton over the phone to discuss bilateral issues.Despite strong trade ties, a number of recurring issues continue to create tension between the two sides.Among them, Europe's perceived unwillingness to grant China market economy status, an escalating number of trade disputes and persistent criticism of the country's human rights record, especially from MEPs, continue to vex Chinese officials.This comes despite the fact that some NGOs say Europe's criticism of conditions in the autonomous regions of Tibet and Xinjiang has been increasingly overtaken by commercial interests.At the same time, European businesses say they receive unfair treatment when operating inside the Asian powerhouse economy, while the valuation of China's renminbi currency has attracted harsh criticism since an effective currency peg with the dollar was put in place in 2008.

Renminbi

US and EU pressure on the currency issue appeared to bear fruit last month, when China announced its intention to allow the renminbi greater flexibility to appreciate.This decision however, insists Ms Fu, reflects the easing of the global economic recession rather than external influences.We don't like the pressure from outside because Chinese people are now asking why we changed our currency stance because somebody told us to, she said.The conflicting nature of domestic and international demands is also evident in market access disputes.In April, the EU Chamber of Commerce in China said growing nationalist sentiment expressed by Chinese internet users is driving the country's protectionist policies at the expense of foreign firms.Taken together, the litany of potential flashpoints between the two sides seems likely to keep Ms Fu busy in the coming years, with Europe's tendency to hand out advice also grating against Beijing.Europe believes it has the best and that the whole world should copy it, although after a long period of time, many countries that did copy it are not so successful, said Ms Fu.But Europe does not lose its confidence, you keep on lecturing.

Iran Past Point of No Return, to Open Nuke Plant in September
by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu JULY 7,10

Iran’s nuclear chief Ali Akbar Salehi announced Wednesday that the Islamic Republic will open its first nuclear power plant at Bushehr in September, passing the point of no return.Salehi, deputy to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and also director of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, told the semi-official Fars News Agency, We hope that, as our Russian friends and Iranian colleagues have said, the reactor will launch operation in September. We feel that we have reached a no-return point, and from now on the ground is paved for the final launch of the reactor.He said the plant’s reactor passed the last pre-launch test on Wednesday and it is ready to come on-line later in the summer.Russia has been building the nuclear facility since 1994, and its vested interest in Iran’s nuclear power plant has conflicted with Western pressures to back harsh sanctions aimed at halting the unsupervised development of nuclear projects. China has invested heavily in several plants under construction and has balked at tough sanctions.Iran has denied charges by Israel and the United States that Iran is using developing capability to produce a nuclear warhead that can be used to attack Israel. Ahmadinejad previously has said that Israel is a cancer and should be wiped off the map.Iran recently announced it is producing 20 percent grade enriched uranium - a key ingredient for a nuclear weapon, but still far below the necessary quality.

Conveyor Belt to Terror not Banned in US
by Hillel Fendel JULY 7,10

Hizb uh-Tahrir, the radical Islamic Party of Liberation that is outlawed in Syria, Lebanon, Egypt, Libya, Saudi Arabia, Germany, Holland, and other countries, operates freely in the United States.Counter-terrorism expert lecturer and radio talk show host Gadi Adelman, writing for FamilySecurityMatters.org , says that the organization, known as HT for short, was to hold its second annual conference next week, entitled, Emerging World Order: Global Campaign for Khilafah (Caliphate). However, at nearly the last minute, host venue Chicago Marriott Oak Brook hotel canceled the event. HT plans to hold it elsewhere before the end of the month, though it has not yet announced a location.Last year’s event was entitled The rise of Islam and the fall of Capitalism.Brigitte Gabriel, founder of ACT! for America, has said that HT focuses on recruiting boys between the ages of 8 and 18 years old to become suicide bombers and Jihadists to advance Islam throughout the world.Born in a Lebanese Christian community, Gabriel’s home was destroyed by radical Islamists, about whom she later wrote the books Because They Hate and They Must be Stopped.Walid Phares and Muslim democratic leader Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, who called HT a conveyor belt to terror, are among many who have spoken out against HT as well.HT came close to being banned in the UK in August 2005, Adelman writes,when then-Prime Minister Tony Blair announced his intentions to ban the group.That was until threats of riots made him drop the idea.HT wants to overthrow every country the world over to instill a Global Caliphate,seeks to train teenagers for jihad, has reportedly been involved in threats against Jews, Hindus, and has reportedly threatened Muslim university officials. HT rejects the gender equality movement for women’s rights, saying that women must pursue a global Islamic caliphate instead. HT calls for the end of democracy and its replacement by Sharia law, as well as death for anyone who leaves Islam.Family Security Matters editor Adrian Morgan wrote back in 2007: It is difficult to believe that a group that threatens not only the Middle East but the West, too, should go without condemnation by the United States, as if it were the Girl Scouts.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

Obama Backs Down from Changing US Policy on Israeli Ambiguity
by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu JULY 7,10

U.S. President Barack Obama has climbed down from the limb on which he changed a long-standing American policy that accepts Israel’s ambiguity on whether it has nuclear capability.He clearly stated a retreat from his position on Tuesday, telling Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu that the United States will not encourage a Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) conference unless all countries feel confident that they can attend and on condition that Israel is not singled out.Several weeks ago, President Obama ignored Israeli warnings and backed a United Nations resolution for a nuclear-free Middle East that singled out Israel but did not mention Iran. In his remarks following Tuesday’s 80-minute meeting with Netanyahu at the White House, the president implied that he will continue the policy of accepting Israel’s ambiguity. President Obama stated. We strongly believe that, given its size, its history, the region that it’s in, and the threats that are leveled against us – against it, that Israel has unique security requirements. It’s got to be able to respond to threats or any combination of threats in the region.Another strong indication of the retreat came from a report Wednesday by Army Radio, which said that the United States sent Israel a secret letter that respects Israel’s being a non-signatory to the Nuclear Proliferation Treaty (NPT). The IDF-operated station said the letter to Israel guarantees the sale of materials used for nuclear technology and which usually are not transferred to countries that have not signed the NPT.

Israel's not having signed the NPT has been used by Iran as a response to international demands that it submit to United Nations inspection of its nuclear projects, which are assumed by Israel and the United States to include the production of a nuclear warhead.The Army Radio report said that the secret letter specifically includes terminology that the United States considers Israel to be a responsible state that behaves in moderation relative to its capabilities.A U.S. embassy spokesman in Tel Aviv told Israel National News, We don’t comment on diplomatic correspondence and whether it exists or not.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

Israel keeping flotilla ships until inquiry ends By IAN DEITCH, Associated Press Writer - JULY 7,10

JERUSALEM – Israel will hold on to the six ships from the international flotilla that sought to break Israel's blockade of the Gaza Strip at least until it completes its investigation into a deadly raid on one of the vessels, the Defense Ministry said Wednesday.Israel towed the boats to a northern port days after naval commandos stormed the ships, killing nine Turkish activists on board the lead vessel. Some boats remain moored in Haifa port with cargoes of cement and steel still on board, a Defense Ministry spokesman said.Although Israel has said the soldiers acted in self defense, the bloodshed provoked an international outcry that forced Israel to it to ease the Gaza blockade.But it has rebuffed pressure from the United Nations and Turkey to agree to an international inquiry. Instead, it has formed its own commission, headed by a retired Israeli Supreme Court Justice Yaakov Turkel, to conduct a limited investigation of the raid. Its deliberations are expected to take months.One thing is certain. Nothing will be done with these ships until after the Turkel inquiry because they might want to inspect them, Defense Ministry spokesman Shlomo Dror said.

On Sunday, Channel 10 TV showed footage of Israeli fisherman fishing off the flotilla's Turkish lead ship, the Mavi Marmara. All the deaths during the raid took place on that vessel, where activists clashed with the commandos. Each side has accused the other of attacking first.The raid has battered already strained relations between Israel and Turkey, once a strong ally in the Muslim world.Ceylam Ozem, a spokeswoman for the Turkish Embassy in Tel Aviv, said her government has asked from day one for the ships to be returned. They are Turkish owned. The Israelis have still not answered our demand, she said.Israel, along with Egypt, imposed the blockade on Gaza after the Islamic militant Hamas, which has killed hundreds of Israelis, violently wrested control of Gaza in 2007.Hamas authorities on Wednesday arrested five suspected collaborators with Israel in a campaign against informers in the Gaza Strip, a Hamas security official said. The overnight arrest raids began three months after two collaborators were executed.Collaboration is viewed as an especially serious offense in Palestinian society.The Hamas official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the arrests.

In another sign of Hamas' stranglehold on the territory, the group said it blocked what would have been the first shipment of West Bank newspapers since the group's June 2007 takeover.The West Bank, run by rivals of Hamas, has banned Hamas newspapers since 2007.Also Wednesday, the United Nations said in a new report that Israel's West Bank separation barrier is making it increasingly difficult for Palestinians living nearby to reach farm lands or health services.Farmers who own land in the area between the barrier and the Israeli frontier have to pass through gates and need to obtain special permits from the Israeli military.The U.N. said the permits are increasingly difficult to obtain and the 57 gates are not always open. This has severely curtailed agricultural practice and undermined rural livelihoods, the report said.Israel started building the barrier in 2003 after a series of Palestinian suicide attacks that killed hundreds of Israelis. Israel says the barrier remains an important security element. Israeli Foreign Ministry spokesman Yigal Palmor rejected the report. We have already enough proof that (the U.N.) would much rather see more bombings on Israeli territory than acknowledge that anything Israel does to prevent these attacks could be legitimate,he said. In July 2004, the International Court of Justice said in an advisory ruling that the barrier must be tore down because it runs through occupied land. Israel rejected that. AP correspondent Ibrahim Barzak in Gaza City, Gaza Strip and Karin Laub in Jerusalem contributed to this report.

Fueled by White House success, Netanyahu heads to UN by Steve Weizman – JULY 7,10

WASHINGTON (AFP) – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu headed to the United Nations Wednesday to meet UN chief Ban Ki-moon, saying he could perform miracles to hammer out a peace deal if all sides come together.After his warm White House talks with US President Barack Obama, Netanyahu told ABC television he wanted to reach an agreement acceptable to Israelis with Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas.We want President Abbas to grasp my hand, get into a room, shake it, sit down and negotiate a final settlement of peace between Israel and the Palestinians, he told the US news channel.He added he was confident a Middle East peace deal, which has eluded successive Israeli, Palestinian and US leaders for over six decades, could be struck.

Don't be so skeptical,he said.Raise your hopes. It's summer time and we can perform miracles if we set our sights to them.Israel was Wednesday hailing a new chapter of warm ties with the United States after the upbeat summit between Netanyahu and Obama.
A president now working with the premier, not against him, thrilled the right-wing Jerusalem Post. "This time, publicly at least, there were none of the harsh demands, none of the hectoring, none of the patronizing.But the Israeli premier may find the UN secretary general less forthcoming during their talks later Wednesday.Ban said Tuesday that while Israel's easing of its four-year blockade of the Gaza Strip was welcome, more needed to be done to ease Palestinian hardships.His spokesman noted that Ban "has long called for a significant shift in strategy towards meeting the great needs of Gaza's population.Further steps must now follow to meet those needs and to allow the United Nations to accelerate and expand its efforts.The UN chief has demanded Israel lift its blockade of the impoverished Gaza Strip, imposed in the wake of the election victory by Hamas Islamic militants who now control the Palestinian territory.

Israel has so far given the go-ahead for the international community to import construction materials into Gaza. And Netanyahu said Wednesday further steps were under consideration.There are more things we are prepared to do... There are things like additional easing of movements, some questions of economic projects, Netanyahu told ABC.There are quite a few. The point is we are prepared to do them.The change in policy was triggered by the international condemnation of an Israeli commando raid on an aid flotilla trying to break the blockade that led to the deaths of nine Turkish activists on May 31.Israel has set up a commission of inquiry into the events with the participation of British and Canadian observers, but some nations are calling at the UN for a fuller international probe.After Tuesday's White House meeting, Obama said he hoped for direct peace talks to start before the end of September when an Israeli freeze on settlement building is due to expire.I believe that Prime Minister Netanyahu wants peace. I think he's willing to take risks for peace, Obama told reporters. He also strongly disputed suggestions that he had distanced the United States from Israel, sharing a prolonged handshake with the visiting Israeli leader for the cameras. Netanyahu did not say directly whether he would extend the freeze on settlement construction in Arab east Jerusalem, but hinted it was a possibility. I think once we get there realities may change, but I think the most important reality is that we don't stick on all sorts of requirements and grievances, he told ABC.During his talks with Ban, Netanyahu is expected to repeat his call for global support of US-led efforts to keep up diplomatic and economic pressure on Iran.Western powers accuse Tehran of seeking to build an atomic bomb, charges vehemently denied by the Islamic republic.Late Wednesday, Netanyahu will address Jewish leaders in New York and on Thursday he gives a speech to the Council for Foreign Relations and meets with former president Bill Clinton.

Abbas wants Israel sign on borders and security before talks
Wed Jul 7, 8:44 am ET

ADDIS ABABA (AFP) – Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas said Wednesday he wanted an Israeli signal on the key issues of security and borders before heeding US calls for a resumption of direct peace talks.We are ready to go for direct talks if we receive any signals from the Israeli side on two issues, the borders and the security, Abbas said in English during an official visit to Ethiopia.We have presented our proposals to both the Americans and the Israelis and we are waiting for an Israeli impression and reaction,he told reporters after meeting Ethiopian Prime Minister Meles Zenawi.

US President Barack Obama this week expressed hope that direct talks would start before the end of September after a White House meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.Netanyahu says he is ready to meet Abbas at any time and Israeli Defence Minister Ehud Barak said Wednesday he could see direct negotiations getting under way within a few weeks.But the Palestinians have yet to commit to direct talks, accusing Israel of undermining the atmosphere with continuing settlement activity on occupied Palestinian land.Obama said he hoped progress towards direct negotiations from indirect US-brokered proximity talks between Israelis and Palestinians would render an October 1 deadline for ending a partial Israeli settlement freeze irrelevant.My hope is that once direct talks have begun, well before the moratorium has expired, that that will create a climate in which everybody feels a greater investment in success,he said.

A Long Economic Winter Ahead Dr. Rodrigue Tremblay
Opinion Maker July 7, 2010

A State divided into a small number of rich and a large number of poor will always develop a government manipulated by the rich to protect the amenities represented by their property.:Harold Laski (1893-1950), British political theorist, 1930

Money becomes evil not when it is used to buy goods but when it is used to buy power… economic inequalities become evil when they are translated into political inequalities.Samuel Huntington (1927-2008), political scientist… if financial markets are skittish and don’t have confidence in a country’s fiscal soundness, that is also going to undermine our recovery.President Barack Obama, June 25, 2010.Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius, and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction.Albert Einstein (1879-1955) Physicist and Professor, Nobel Prize 1921

The bond market is telling us that there could be hard economic times ahead and that deflation, for the time being, is more of a threat than inflation. -Leading indicators are also pointing to possible economic weakness ahead. -The Euro zone is being pulled apart by the economic asymmetry of its members, the less productive among them (Greece, Spain, Ireland, Portugal and Italy) being unable to keep pace with the very productive German economy. -The U.S. money supply M3 is contracting. -The Chinese bubble is dangerously approaching the bursting point. -And, the deflation of debt all over the place threatens to plunge the world economy into a deflationary tailspin. —In this context, there is a good chance of a double-dip recession next year, in 2011.Readers of this blog know where I stand on this issue. One year ago, on July 10, 2009, when everybody and his uncle was declaring the recession over and the return of business as usual, I wrote a piece announcing that my analysis was pointing out to ten years of economic hardship entitled We are in the Midst of the Great Baby-Boomers Economic Stagnation of 2007-2017 I wrote then that many observers think that prosperity is around the corner and that this recession, like others since World War II, will end as soon as the stock market, as a leading indicator, recovers and people start spending again. This is a myopic view of the current economic big picture.Let us keep in mind that in May of 1930, President Herbert Hoover was also proclaiming that the danger … is safely behind us. This was ten years too early for such a declaration. Just as in the 1930s, the U.S. economy and many part of the world economy suffer from a debt overhang that usually takes at least ten years to correct. When overall debt is four times larger than the economy, as it is the case today and as it was close to being the case in the 1930s, a debt deflation becomes unavoidable.

Economic booms built on a mountain of debt, some of which is fraudulent and speculative debt, tend to end badly. The higher the debt mountain relative to the real economy, the more serious is the following economic meltdown. This is because an unsustainable debt level means that some of the investments and projects thus financed make no economic sense and no sufficient income can be forthcoming to service and repay the debts. The first consequence is excess capacity and falling asset prices. The second consequence is an unavoidable liquidation of debts and a debt deflation. The third consequence is economic stagnation.The danger that accompanies a protracted period of debt-liquidation and debt deflation after a binge of over-indebtedness is well known in economics. In 1933, Yale economist Irving Fisher published his debt-deflation theory of economic depressions. The core of the theory is that over-indebtedness leads to deflation, which in turn leads to an economic contraction. Fisher summarizes the links between debt liquidation and economic contraction in nine interacting steps:

1- Debt liquidation leads to distress selling.
2- Contraction of deposit currency, as bank loans are paid off, and to a slowing down of the velocity of circulation of money.
3- A fall in the level of prices.
4- If the fall of prices is not interfered with by reflation or otherwise, this is followed by greater fall in the net worth of business, precipitating bankruptcies.
5- This leads to a like fall in profits.
6- A reduction in construction, output, trade and in employment of labor results.
7- Losses, bankruptcies and unemployment lead to pessimism and loss of confidence.
8- The result is hoarding and a contraction in bank credits, which contribute in slowing down even more the velocity of circulation of money.
9- The overall deflation causes a fall in the nominal or money interest rates accompanied by a rise in the real or commodity rates of interest as prices fall.

A similar self-reinforcing spiral-down of debt-deflation and economic contraction can be feared in the coming years as the level of debt to the economy goes from about four times the economy to a more manageable two times the economy. In other words, it should not take more than $1.50 or $2 of new debt and credit to generate one dollar of new output. When it takes more debt than that to generate new production, this is an indication that the economy is becoming over-leveraged with debt.Judging by the pronouncements made by leaders at the recent G8 and G20 meetings in June, and their collective commitment to cut governments’ deficits in half by 2013, I don’t think that politicians fully understand the danger presently facing the world economy. In fact, any new shock hitting the world economy, economic or political, risks accelerating the collapse of the debt house of cards, with dire consequences for production and employment.Austerity fiscal measures may raise government efficiency, but they are not what will cushion the real effects of the debt deflation. Both reflationary monetary policies and overall stabilization policies are needed, especially in the banking sector, in order to make sure that producers and employers are not frozen out of new bank credit.
