Cheney's Iran-Arms-to-Taliban Gambit Rebuffed

A media campaign portraying Iran as supplying arms to the Taliban guerrillas fighting US and NATO forces in Afghanistan, orchestrated by Cheney and his allies who advocate for a more confrontational stance toward Iran in the Bush administration, appears to have backfired last week when Defense Secretary Robert Gates and the commander of NATO forces in Afghanistan, General Dan McNeil, issued unusually strong denials.

Risk of Nuclear Warfare Rising

In its annual report on military forces around the globe, the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute says the world's top military powers are gradually dismantling stockpiles of nuclear arms, but all are developing new missiles and warheads with smaller yields that could increase the risk of atomic warfare, and the rising number of nations with nuclear weapons is raising the risk that such arms could be used.

Fired US Attorney John McKay Speaks Out

In a wide-ranging, exclusive interview with Truthout, John McKay, the US attorney for western Washington state, who was fired in December, said he believes that he was ousted because he did not convene a federal grand jury to pursue allegations of voter fraud related to the 2004 governor's election in the state in which Democrat Christine Gregoire defeated Republican Dino Rossi by a margin of 129 votes. McKay said Republicans in his state with close ties to the White House demanded that he launch an investigation into the election and bring charges against Democrats for voter fraud despite the fact that there was no evidence to support the claims of vote-rigging.

Sie rotteten sich, immer wieder, gegen die Macht des Eigentums zusammen, um den Kapitalisten, die ihnen als Leuteschinder und Ausbeuter vertraut waren und die sie auch so nannten, gewaltsam elementare Rücksichtnahmen auf ihr Interesse aufzuzwingen: Wollten die Fabrikherren weiter von ihrer Arbeitskraft Gebrauch machen, hatte dieser Gebrauch auch seine Schranken zu haben.

Forget Iran

TCS Daily
by Gregory Scoblete

06/11/07

While the 2008 presidential candidates are busy fielding questions about how they would confront Iran’s nuclear ambitions, few seem interested in addressing a much more pressing issue: Pakistan. It’s understandable, of course. Pakistan is an infinitely more difficult challenge for a would-be president to tackle. Unlike Iran — which can be ‘bombed,’ ‘contained,’ ‘deterred,’ or ‘ignored’ — Pakistan does not lend itself to sound bite solutions. It’s much easier for candidates to simply ignore our ostensible ally and hope to pass through the campaign without being called on it. But events will almost certainly conspire to deny us the luxury of living in denial for very long. The truth is Pakistan represents a far greater danger to the U.S. than Iran, at least for the foreseeable future...

Fool me thrice

WorldNetDaily
by Vox Day

06/11/07

It is hard to condemn conservatives for supporting Bush in 2000, even if his ‘compassionate conservative’ language sent a clear signal that he did not consider himself a proper conservative. And, if his disavowal of nation-building and advocacy of a humble foreign policy were misleading, it must be recalled that the vast majority of conservatives initially supported Bush’s neocon-inspired world democratic revolution; indeed many still support it today. Nevertheless, Bush was portrayed as a conservative by the entire conservative commentariat — many of whom described him as the second coming of Ronald Reagan — and any blame for being fooled by Bush lies with Bush, his propagandists and his apologists. There is no similar excuse for having supported Bush in 2004. … This time, however, the nominal Reagan cum Messiah is the laconic actor, Sen. Fred Thompson. Like President Bush, the younger Sen. Thompson gives off conservative vibes. And as with Bush, those vibes are largely, if not entirely, misleading...

The war on journalists

CounterPunch
by Patrick Cockburn

06/11/07

Sahar al-Haideri, an Iraqi journalist, had received 13 death threats before she was murdered in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul last week. Her killing brings to 106 the number of journalists, almost all Iraqi, murdered in the country since the US invasion in 2003 along with 39 support staff. Mrs al-Haideri, a 45-year- old mother of three who worked as a freelancer for many publications, knew she was likely to die but refused to stop working. ‘We know we will be killed soon,’ she told fellow journalists on the Journal Iraq online newspaper. She had even stopped using a nom de plume and wrote under own name with her picture. She said: ‘I was kidnapped and threatened while using a pen name, so I decided to write … with my real name’...

I have said all I have to say with words and I’m tired. Like Cindy, I thought that by now things would be drastically different than they were in 2004.

I had visions that many Christians would recognize and repent from the violence of war and religious hubris and hold their leaders accountable. I believed they would reject the violent church/state religion and again show the face of love to the world.It seems many/most Christians agree with what I write but deep inside are unwilling to make waves, stand up, or take a risk. …. In light of the horrible escalation of violence and war, it is outrageous that every church is not a “peace church.” I have been preaching to the choir but the choir is more interested in pageantry and pretty cakes than in authentic service...

Ron Paul: the GOP’s lonely anti-war candidate

The American Prospect
by Zack Pelta-Heller

06/11/07

Surely one of the highlights of the presidential primary debates held so far occurred back in mid-May, during the Republican debate in South Carolina: Ten-term Texas Congressman Ron Paul … told Fox News correspondent Wendell Goler that the attacks of 9/11 occurred primarily as a response to U.S. foreign policy over the past few decades…. Congressman Paul is the only Republican presidential contender who opposes the war in Iraq; in 2002, he was one of six House Republicans who voted against authorizing the use of military force. And he opposes our military involvement with such vehemence — both on the campaign trail and on the House floor — that critics have suggested he ought to run as a Democrat. (Paul was unbowed in the second Republican debate last week, using the word ‘empire’ to describe American engagements abroad and invoking his training as a doctor in offering up his assessment: ‘If we made the wrong diagnosis, we should change the treatment … We’re not making progress there and we should come home.’)...

No signs of phaseout for Gitmo

Boston Globe

06/11/07

The Bush administration has transferred three suspected terrorists to the Guantanamo Bay prison since March, despite recent legal setbacks and President Bush’s statement that he would like to close the controversial facility. The three detainees are the first to arrive in Guantanamo Bay since 2004, with the exception of those who were abruptly transferred last fall when Bush closed secret CIA prisons in Europe after their existence became known. Two of the recent transfers were captured in a sweeping counterterrorism operation in Somalia. The third is Iraqi. The lack of new arrivals — and the large number of detainees who were being sent home — had led many human rights advocates to believe the Guantanamo Bay prison was being phased out amid widespread international outrage. But now, new detainees are arriving and the flow of releases has slowed significantly — from 102 last year to 15 this year...

British troops are being prescribed with a controversial drug which has been blamed for making US pilots ‘trigger-happy’ and causing friendly fire deaths. The Ministry of Defence has admitted that it prescribes the amphetamine dexedrine, which is capable of keeping users awake for as long as 60 hours. While the MoD has refused to say what it uses the Class B drug for, leading narcotics experts say that the main purpose is to keep soldiers awake during special operations. However, they have warned that the substance can be highly addictive. In addition, the MoD has admitted that it permits soldiers to take a drug called kava-kava, from the South Pacific, which is known to be linked to severe liver damage...

Are America's Elections Fair and Accurate?

http://www.american.edu/ia/cdem/emails/07_0604.htm http://www.american.edu/ia/cdem/usp/np/index.cfm

June 13, 2007
9:00 AM - 1:00 PM National Press Club Conference Rooms (13th floor)
529-14th St. NW., Washington, DC

Dear Colleague:

Inaccurate voting lists, uncounted provisional ballots, electronic voting machines that jam without a paper trail – all these and more have eroded voter confidence in the competence and fairness of America's electoral process. Those problems are compounded by partisan Secretaries of State who conduct the elections, campaign officials with ties to companies providing voting machines, and claims that U.S. Attorneys were dismissed for failing to pursue alleged electoral fraud. A decade ago, it would have been laughable to ask if America's elections were conducted as professionally and impartially as Mexico's. Today, it is no laughing matter; indeed, the answer is that Mexico has a more independent, impartial, and professional system.

American University's Center for Democracy and Election Management
(CDEM) would like to invite you to attend the conference "Change the Way America Runs Its Elections,"at the National Press Club on June 13,
2007 from 9 am-1 pm. The conference will analyze the problems with the current system of electoral administration and offer new proposals for an independent, nonpartisan election commission.
