There are few marks on the road where the missiles hit the innocents of Marjayoun. But there are the memories of what happened immediately after the Israeli airstrike on the convoy of 3,000 people after dark on 11 August: a 16-year old Christian girl screaming "I want my Daddy" as her father’s mutilated body lay a few metres away from her; the town mukhtar discovering that his wife, Collette, had been decapitated by one of the Israeli missiles; the Lebanese Red Cross (…)

Alternatives To the Collapsed WTO Doha Round Talks - by Stephen Lendman
On July 24, 2006, World Trade Organization (WTO) Director-General Pascal Lamy was forced to halt the five years of negotiating of the so-called Fourth WTO Ministerial Doha Round that began in Doha, Qatar in November, 2001 and ended (for now, at least) in Geneva, Switzerland. The talks had been ongoing to strike a trade deal but broke down because the US, as usual, demanded all take and little give in return expecting (…) -

The European Union in Brussels confirmed Tuesday that it had received Iran’s formal reply to the package of economic incentives offered by Western nations in (…) -

“Ever since the extremist attacks on various American targets on September 11, 2001, an enormous body of literature, mostly theory and supposition, has erupted throughout the world. The real story about this tragedy is far more interesting, and provable, than the great forests of fiction that have grown up around it. There are two parts to this story. There is no point going over the known facts (…) -

1 commentI came away from President Bush’s Press conference feeling invigorated; more alive and more jubilant than ever!
The President told us that we must stay the course in Iraq (and obviously in Afghanistan) for as long as it takes; that our troops won’t be pulled out as long as he’s the Commander in Chief.
I like that tough and courageous approach to peace and democracy in this precarious world. God and man, working in unison, with dedication and generosity to win hearts, minds, and a new (…) -

By Peter Fredson
August 22, 2006
At the press conference yesterday, a reporter quizzed Bush: ‘Mr. President, I’d like to go back to Iraq. You’ve continually cited the elections, the new government, its progress in Iraq, and yet the violence has gotten worse in certain areas. You’ve had to go to Baghdad again. Is it not time for a new strategy? And if not, why not?”
President: “You’ve covered the Pentagon, you know that the Pentagon is constantly (…) -

WASHINGTON, D.C. — (OfficialWire) — 08/22/06 — Despite White House efforts to expunge his clear and unambiguous statement from transcripts, I think enough people actually heard George W. Bush say, during yesterday’s Press Conference, that Iraq had "Nothing" to do with 9/11-to qualify the assertion that the text had been removed from the ’official transcript’, because of ’hecklers’, as ridiculous, if not criminal.
At long last, the president has (…) -

1 commentUnfortunately 150+ people died in a Russian airliner crash today, but if there can be a silver lining, it is that this crash could help expose the lies behind 9/11, thus preventing another fake terror attack and a full scale WW III.
Please send these photos to friends and media that still believe the official 9/11 story. The Russian jet left lots of wreckage and debris... according to the official gov’t story of 9/11 Flight 93 "plunged into the ground with such force that the plane (…) -
QUESTIO FOREHEAD TO THE ZIONIST TERRORISM ¿ANTI JEWS?

Yet the respect that deserves all the people, for being human beings fundamentally, I believe that who insist on accusing to us of “anti-Jews”, they do not understand or they do not want to include/understand, the dimensions of the genocide which implacable gangster commits itself at this moment against a town, who although are certain defends of the atrocities of the monstrous enemy, represents the weak opponent at the moment. And when I speak of weakness, I do not talk about the physicist, (…)
