    What Bush’s Open Mike Revealed By Robert Scheer Posted on July 18, 2006 Editor’s note: In the midst of a Middle Eastern crisis that threatens to destabilize the entire region and perhaps beyond, it was unnerving that what most seemed to interest President Bush at the G8 summit is that China is a long flight from Western Russia. Bombs were exploding and innocents dying, from Beirut to Haifa to Baghdad, and yet George Bush managed to pose for yet another photo op, smiling as he gave the (…)

    The Hidden War On Women In Iraq By Ruth Rosen TomDispatch July 13, 2006 Abu Ghraib. Haditha. Guantanamo. These are words that shame our country. Now, add to them Mahmudiya, a town 20 miles south of Baghdad. There, this March, a group of five American soldiers allegedly were involved in the rape and murder of Abeer Qassim Hamza, a young Iraqi girl. Her body was then set on fire to cover up their crimes, her father, mother, and sister murdered. The rape of this one girl, if proven true, is (…)

  • Israel’s War Is Not Ours
    19 July 2006 par (Open-Publishing)

    Israel’s War Is Not Ours Ilana Mercer Tuesday, July 18, 2006 It’s ominous to hear prominent American neoconservatives speak of Israel’s war as our own and the conflagration in the region as the commencement of WWIII. “What’s under attack,” writes William Kristol, “is liberal democratic civilization.”
    It’s ominous but not surprising. Hyping a war as a symbolic war gives it momentum-and facilitates its expansion beyond regional confines.
    Iran and Syria’s involvement in instigating the (…)

    THE UN Security Council has again rejected pleas that it call for an immediate cease-fire between Israel and Lebanon after the United States objected, diplomats said overnight. Washington argued in closed-door talks that the focus for Middle East diplomacy for now should be on the weekend summit in St Petersburg of the Group of Eight industrialised nations, council diplomats said.
    It was the sole member of the 15-nation UN body to oppose any council action at all at this time, they said. (…)

    How many buildings must be blown down before this war is done? and how many kids must die needlessly, victims of bomb or of gun?

    In the last 3 decades, two major wars were raged against Iraq. The 1st war was on Jan 91 when Mr. Bush, the father, and allied forces organized that war to force the withdrawal of Iraqi army from Kuwait.

In that war, the USA army targeted bridges, refineries, electric power stations, factories and other infrastructures instead of the Iraqi troops in Kuwait. When the Iraqi troops seized fire and started withdrawal, then (…)
