And you thought it was a Hell-Hole LAST year!
Bush, a bit stumbly and somewhat incoherent yesterday in the Rose Garden (what a sweet smell!), tried once again to persuade the doubting Thomases in the Press Corps that Iraq’s problems are just a series of temporary glitches and that they can be fixed!
I really had a huge guffaw when Bush had the audacity to actually say he was proud of the Iraqi citizens who wanted "freedom" so desperately they were willing to sit tight and put up with the (…)

THAT IS - AMERICANS CAN’T SEE ***WHO*** TAKES THEIR MONEY AND HOW THEY DO IT.
WHY FOR INSTANCE WAS THERE NO 9-11 TYPE ATTACK ON PARIS? ON MOSCOW? ON ROME?
SIMPLE: AS BIN LADEN AND ALL THE OTHER ARAB-WORLD LEADERS HAVE SAID: BECAUSE IT THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA THAT GIVES ISRAEL THE WEAPONS TO OCCUPY PALESTINE AND CONTROL THE PALESTINIANS BY KILLING THEM. MANY U.S. SCIENTISTS AND ACADEMIC INVESTIGATORS NOW HAVE DETERMINED THAT THE U.S. GOVERNMENT THROUGH CIA AND MOSSAD INFILTRATORS (…)

JERUSALEM (AP) - With his political fortunes plummeting after the war in Lebanon, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert is scrambling to shore up his rickety coalition by courting a hard-line party that favors redrawing Israel’s borders to exclude Arab citizens.
Bringing the Yisrael Beitenu party into the coalition would mark a sharp turn to the right for Olmert, who was elected on pledges to cede large parts of the West Bank, and could hurt already slim chances of restarting (…)

If you are awake, aware, and more than outraged, I’ve got to ask. Has this been a week from Hades or what? Certainly Hugo Chavez - and the rest of the world would agree. Oh, perhaps Tony in the UK would be an exception, as he’s the fellow who seems to find little fault with the US (and some say even holds the American Devil’s uh, pitchfork). Rumor even has it that since taking office, the American Devil-Monster has spread his putrid stench wherever Air (…)

There can be no conflict between freedom and security. We must have both, or we will have neither. President Bush insists that we sacrifice freedom to be secure. His actions as President have endangered both our freedom and our security.
President Bush has radically diminished the security of the United States by his criminal acts. His wars of aggression, defined as the “Supreme international crime” by the Nuremberg Court, in Afghanistan and Iraq have created anger, fear and hatred among (…)

BBC Guilty of Venality in Its Misreporting on Venezuela - by Stephen Lendman
Listeners and viewers expecting to find a safe alternative to the corporate-controlled media by turning to the BBC better reconsider their choice based on the vaunted news organization’s reporting on Venezuela and specifically on the misinformation it put out in an online piece on October 8 titled - "Mass Venezuela opposition rally."

Jack Cafferty of CNN’s ‘Situation Room’ is no stranger to speaking out and asking the viewers what they think as evident in this CrooksAndLiars.com video feed titled, “Sometimes politicians say really dumb things” This is not the first time, nor do I suppose it will be the last that journalists such as Cafferty are willing to go against the current media trend and express his negative opinions of Bush. If one were a Marine, one would shout, “hoo-rah!”
But, getting back (…)

The failed Qatari mediation in the still unresolved inter-Palestinian divide was in practice an American success in turning the Arab Peace Initiative (API) into a pressure tool that further exacerbates fractures both in Arab and Palestinian ranks, less than two weeks after the U.S. aborted a move by the Arab League to revive an overdue comprehensive approach to the Arab and Palestinian - Israeli conflict on its basis through the United Nations.
