World-News: 11 Februar 2008

Nach dem am 9. Februar von der französischen Regierung verhängten Anbauverbot für den Monsanto-Genmais MON 810 hat der Bund für Umwelt und Naturschutz Deutschland (BUND) Bundesagrarminister Horst Seehofer aufgefordert, in Deutschland ebenfalls ein solches Verbot durchzusetzen. "Vom MON 810 gehen große Gefahren für andere Pflanzen und für Tiere aus", so BUND-Vorsitzender Hubert Weiger. "Wenn die Regierung in Paris schwerwiegende Bedenken gegen den Anbau des Genmais hat, muss auch die Bundesregierung jetzt verantwortlich handeln und den Anbau dieser Risikopflanze in Deutschland verbieten. Und Agrarminister Seehofer muss sich dafür einsetzen, dass MON 810 keine erneute EU-Zulassung bekommt."

Iraq's Tidal Wave of Misery

Michael Schwartz writes for TomDispatch: "A tidal wave of misery is engulfing Iraq - and it isn't the usual violence that Americans are accustomed to hearing about and tuning out. To be sure, it's rooted in that violence, but this tsunami of misery is social and economic in nature. It dislodges people from their jobs, sweeps them from their homes, tears them from their material possessions, and carries them off from families and communities. It leaves them stranded in hostile towns or foreign countries, with no anchor to resist the moment when the next wave of displacement sweeps over them."

Army Buried Study Faulting Iraq Planning

Michael R. Gordon, reporting for The New York Times, writes, "The Army is accustomed to protecting classified information. But when it comes to the planning for the Iraq war, even an unclassified assessment can acquire the status of a state secret."

Datenschutzbeauftragter kritisiert Pläne für Bundesmelderegister

Die Regierungspläne für ein neues Bundesmelderegister stoßen beim Bundesbeauftragten für den Datenschutz, Peter Schaar, auf schwere Bedenken. Dieses Melderegister könne "eine Art Superdatei werden", in der nicht nur die zur Identifikation einer Person erforderlichen "Grundpersonalien" gespeichert werden, sagte Schaar am 12. Februar im Deutschlandfunk. Neben der Steuer-Identifikationsnummer nannte er dabei unter anderem "Beziehungsdaten, familiäre Zusammenhänge" und die Frage, wer über einen Waffenschein verfügt.

Undoing the Bush Legacy

The Nation — Acting largely in secret, the Administration is moving to tie down the next White House—Republican or Democratic—in ways that will prove hard to unravel. Whether or not it succeeds depends on the vigilance of Congress and the public.

A declaration of freedom

02/09/08

As a free man, by birthright, for as long as I live and breath, I declare that I have the innate, inalienable and absolute right to remain totally free from the intrusion and force of any individual, gang or group — including this or any other government. I also recognize that all men, (inclusive of all genders, nationalities, races or ages,) are born with this right to freedom, whether they accept it, or not, for it is as much a part of being human as is our capacity for reason...

The surveillance scam

Cato Institute
by Timothy B. Lee

02/08/08

Why are today’s Democrats less concerned with civil liberties than Republicans were a decade ago? Democratic leaders would doubtless point to the 9/11 attacks. Those attacks have certainly contributed to a changed political climate, but they don’t justify Congress’s panicky reaction to the president’s demands. Congress had already expanded eavesdropping powers several times since 9/11. Congress approved new wiretapping authority with the Patriot Act in 2001, and approved further expansions later in 2001 and in 2002, 2004, and 2006. If the new powers the president was seeking weren’t urgent enough to include in those revisions to the law, it’s hard to believe they were an emergency in August 2007. Moreover, the powers Congress granted last summer are far broader those sought by the Clinton administration in 1996...

From war games to police state

Yearning to Breathe Free
by Jason Hallmark

02/09/08

So why would someone not want the military conducting war games out in the street where your kids are playing, or in the coffee shops where you are getting you lunch, or perhaps down the hall from your office at work? Well, the way I see it, this is all just part of a pattern to destroy liberty in this country. Allowing the military to conduct war games amongst our homes and businesses is just a way to start getting people accustomed to seeing armed government agents wherever they go. Militarizing society is just another step toward the implementation of a full blown police state...

Clintons’ conduct shows how much we need the “new”

Tennessean
by Saritha Prabhu

02/04/08

Decency has been imposed on Hillary Clinton’s campaign. After the outcry following Bill Clinton’s verbal attacks on Barack Obama, the Hillary campaign announced that he would go back to being the supportive, behind-the-scenes spouse he was before Iowa. All of which highlights an unfortunate fact about the Clintons: For them, decency is more a poll-driven commodity than an innate virtue. What does it say when a 46-year-old relative rookie runs a nobler campaign than two sixtysomething political veterans? In trying to inject race into the campaign, Bill Clinton inadvertently injected the ‘baggage’ card that the Clintons carry...
