Bei dem Mitmach- Video Anbieter "Youtube" ist ein Video aufgetaucht, auf dem ein Mitschnitt einer MDR Radio Sport Reportage zu hören ist. Wenn man auf dem Youtube Portal den Titel "MDR Uli Landespokalverlierer-Plauen" eingibt, gelangt man zu der besagten Aufnahme. Zu Beginn sind allerdings nur undeutliche Worte zu erkennen. Ab der Minute 1:00 sagt ein Moderator: "Uli, das ist doch Dein Thema: Randerlierende Fussballfans, Assis, Hartz IV Empfänger und äh Rechtsradikale." Bei dieser unsäglichen Aufzählung, die äußerst diskriminierend alles in ein Topf wirft, bleibt es allerdings nicht.

Remy Ourdan, Le Monde: "They are trying to be more discreet and less murderous than in Iraq. In Kabul, foreign mercenaries don't let loose with rapid fire at intersections and the laws attempt to compel them to cooperate with Afghan companies. However, with the improvement of the situation in Iraq and since Barack Obama announced that Afghanistan and Pakistan were the 'central front' of the war against al-Qaeda, they've been arriving."

The deal was concluded after Rahm Emanuel, the White House chief of staff, went to the Capitol to assure Senate Democrats that President Obama would use all administrative and legal means to prevent the photos' release. At the same time, a federal court issued a ruling effectively ensuring that the photos would not be released for months, if ever.

Master illusionist Bernanke is just arranging the props for his next big trick. The fact is, Bernanke anticipated the current wave of deflation and set up a straw man (the banks) to deal with it so it wouldn't look like he was simply printing more paper to finance the deficits.

There are, in fact, precedents, and studies, that illuminate the grave problems confronting a democracy in making a choice when faced with the options of prosecuting and punishing versus forgiving and forgetting. I discovered this material some years ago when studying authoritarian governance.

In its escalation of the US war in Afghanistan, and its increasing extension across the border into Pakistan, the Obama administration has chosen as its senior commander an officer who is among those most deeply implicated in the criminal operations carried out under Bush and Cheney.
