Congressional Republicans killed a provision in an Iraq war funding bill that would have put the United States on record against the permanent basing of U.S. military facilities in that country, a lawmaker and congressional aides said on Friday.
The $94.5 billion emergency spending bill, which includes $65.8 billion to continue waging wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, is expected to be approved by Congress next week and sent to President George W. Bush for signing into law. (…)

The latest scheme of mind control and social domination is called \"Terrorism\" and is built on the pretext that an enemy viewed by a military intelligence organisation \"decides in secret\" what, whom and what the target \"TERRORIST\" is; which could be anybody from a school child to and old person in a wheel chair, or MORE LIKELY the ACTUAL TERRORISM COMES from corrupt politicians, greedy bankers, the military industrial complex using the \"PRETEXT\" of \"SECRET\" information to CONTROL (…)

If the Democratic Party wishes to spare the GOP the great trouble of having to steal the next presidential election , it will nominate certain loser Hillary Rodham Clinton for the presidency of the United States ....... She is one of the most personally unpopular figures to come around the pike in some time ..... No campaign skills .... She is , beyond all doubt , a sure fire recruiting tool for the now moribund Neocon Christian Zionist movement ...... Oh yeah , the country is (…)

We were all horrified by the recent destruction by Israeli shelling of a Palestinian family by the seaside - but the Goebellsian Israeli psy-ops "spin machine" quickly commenced telling the world otherwise on the Web through e-based "lies" (via e-LIARS) and "slies" (spin-based untruths) (by e-SLIARS). Of course "e-LIARS" and "e-SLIAR" are both ANAGRAMS of "ISRAEL" - and now when referring to human rights-ignoring Israelis (“i.e. LIARS” , “i.e. SLIAR” = anagrams of ISRAELI) and (…)

Rapidity is the essence of war. Sun Tzu Wu The stinging pain of 9/11 permitted the convergence of two lethal impulses: 1. the 1997 neoconservative strategy for changing the world, elaborated on in the "Project for the New American Century," and 2. a nationwide appetite for a timely response. Accordingly, 9/11 was used as the clarion call to not only attain "justice" but to reconfigure much of the Islamic arena to make the world safer for democracies, and in the process, (…)

THE TRUE JUDAS
Published in Pravda.Ru on 06/12/06
The popularity of Dan Brown’s novel The Da Vinci Code has also renewed interest in the Gnostic Gospels, the “heretical” texts that were banned from the traditional Bible and considered lost until copies were discovered in the Egyptian desert in 1945.
Thanks largely to passages in the Gospel of Phillip, The Da Vinci Code has raised intriguing questions about the relationship between Jesus and Mary Magdalene. Yet lost in this “Codemania” (…)

Congressman Dennis J. Kucinich (D-OH), who has led opposition within the Congress to the war from the beginning, issued the following statement on the war Supplemental funding bill on the House floor Monday evening:
"Mass death on the installment plan. That’s what this supplemental vote to keep our troops in Iraq is all about.
"Today Iraqi civilian casualties number well over 100,000. Iraqi civilian injuries could be over one million, but who is keeping track? Some act as though the (…)

On his visit to Iraq this week George Bush took the time to tell everyone that the fight in Iraq, with all it’s carnage, was...as he so nobly put it, "Worth It" **********************************
Nobody really knows exactly how many US and coalition troops were killed or wounded in Afghanistan and Iraq since military actions commenced, but the numbers are staggering. Not many media pundits, much less our distinguished El Presidente and staff, take the time to comment on the cost of human (…)
