A Report by Rebecca MacNeice

Opponents of the School of the Americas think that with the new make-up of Congress, they might have the votes to shut down the controversial training center for foreign military officers. Last weekend, thousands of protesters returned to Fort Benning, Georgia, for the 17th consecutive year to call for the closure of the school, whose training manuals advocate torture, extortion and execution. Rebecca MacNeice was there and filed this report for Truthout.

From Britain to China, Bush is the "go-it-alone cowboy" to much of the world, leading the United States in the direction he wants, regardless of what anyone else thinks.

"One of the great hazards of the way electronic voting has been introduced in the United States is that it could end up undermining democracy by producing unreliable election results that cannot be truly audited or corrected. This month, that nightmare became a reality," write the editors of the New York Times. "Voting machines in a Congressional race in Florida - where else? - may have swallowed about 18,000 votes, far more than the nominal winner's razor-thin margin of victory. Because those votes were in the loser's strongest county, if there was a computer glitch it probably changed the outcome of the race."

William Fisher writes: "The scene is a Federal Grand Jury room. There, impaneled ordinary citizens listen intently as a veteran federal prosecutor asks them to return an indictment unique in American history. The charge is Conspiracy to Defraud the United States. And the defendants are President George W. Bush, Vice President Richard Cheney, outgoing defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, and former secretary of state Colin Powell."

More than 3 years after President George W. Bush launched an invasion of Iraq, which his supporters proclaimed would be a "cakewalk," American troops were engulfed in a wave of sectarian bloodletting yesterday that threatens to destroy the Iraqi government and may jeopardize a crisis summit this week with Nouri al-Maliki, the prime minister.

http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/112706L.shtml



http://freepage.twoday.net/search?q=Maliki

Chris Floyd writes: "There is a general misconception that the US military has always turned out plans like these to cover almost every possible contingency, every country; thus you're bound to run across off-the-wall scenarios, such as an invasion of Canada, that would never be implemented. But this is just a myth. In fact, war plans at this level of detail are never drawn up unless there are very serious policy considerations behind them. For example, the now-advanced plans for an airstrike on Iran are not simply contingency exercises churned out by Pentagon analysts, they were ordered directly by George W. Bush, as were the pre-war plans for the Iraq invasion."

Lou Dobbs and the Dead-End of White Anti-Corporate Populism

Ted Glick writes: "Dobbs is deeply concerned about the security of the USA in this post-9/11 age, and this is certainly understandable. But his insular, parochial, USA-first, narrow understanding of the world prevents him from appreciating what people all over the world and many US Americans do get: it is US foreign policy and a massively unjust world social order that is at the root of why a small number of people turn to al Qaeda-type terrorism."

http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/112706G.shtml

Cheney bypassed acts of Congress as defense secretary in the first Bush administration. And his office has been the driving force behind the current administration's hoarding of secrets, its efforts to impose greater political control over career officials, and its defiance of a law requiring the government to obtain warrants when wiretapping Americans. Cheney's staff has also been behind President Bush's record number of signing statements asserting his right to disregard laws.

"It is not too late.

"If the president fails to build a bipartisan foundation for an exit strategy, America will pay a high price for this blunder - one that we will have difficulty recovering from in the years ahead."

Einem Bericht des ARD-Magazins "Report Mainz" zufolge sollen Verschleppungen in das US-Gefangenenlager Guantánamo auch im US-Hauptquartier Europa (EUCOM) in Stuttgart-Vaihingen geplant und koordiniert worden sein. Unter anderem soll es um die Verschleppung von sechs Algeriern im Januar 2002 aus Bosnien gegangen sein, berichtet das Magazin am Montag unter Bezugnahme auf einen EUCOM-Lagebericht. Die Männer seien über die Türkei in das US-Gefangenenlager auf Kuba gebracht worden, wo sie bis heute ohne förmliche Anklage inhaftiert seien. Nach Darstellung von Report arbeiten im Stuttgarter US-Hauptquartier auch deutsche "Verbindungsoffiziere".

Keine Auskünfte : 75 Millionen für die Erben von Milliardär Flick

27.11.06

Nach Darstellung der Linksabgeordneten Barbara Höll soll das Land Nordrhein-Westfalen 75 Millionen an die Erben des Milliardärs Friedrich Karl Flick zurückzahlen, weil sich das Verfahren seit 1997 "hinzieht und die Steuerhinterziehung inzwischen verjährt ist". Obwohl die öffentlichen Kassen voraussichtlich dafür geradestehen müssten, erfahre die Öffentlichkeit "keinerlei Hintergründe über die Verantwortung für diesen Skandal". Das zeige die Antwort der Bundesregierung auf eine Kleine Anfrage der Linksfraktion im Bundestag: Auf neun detaillierte Fragen, etwa worauf die Regierung die Länge des Verfahrens zurückführe und welche Defizite bei den Instrumenten der Behörden bestünden, habee das Finanzministerium lediglich mit dem folgenden Satz geantwortet: "Wegen der Verpflichtung, das Steuergeheimnis zu beachten, ist der Bundesregierung die Beantwortung der Fragen verwehrt." Anfang der 1980er Jahre erschütterte der so genannte "Flick-Skandal" die Bundesrepublik Deutschland. E s ging um Parteispenden und Vorwürfe der politischen Einflussnahme.

In January, Waxman becomes committee chairman - and thus the lead Congressional hound of an administration many Democrats feel has blundered badly as it expanded the power of the executive branch.

The failure of socialist theory is much more than matched by the failure of capitalism because the latter has the entire responsibility for keeping the status quo functioning-and it has no intellectual basis for doing so. The crisis that exists is that capitalism has reached a most dangerous stage in destructiveness -- and no opposition to it exists. This malaise involves foreign affairs and domestic affairs -- vast greed at home and adventure overseas. If the foreign policy aspects are largely American-originated, the rest of the world tolerates or sometimes collaborates with it. Its downfall is inevitable, perhaps imminent. The chaos that exists will exist in a void. No powerful force exists to challenge, much less replace it, and therefore it will continue to exist -- but at immense and growing human cost. Alternative visions are, for the moment at least, mostly cranky...

Our pugnacious president visited Vietnam last week and found the lesson for Iraq: 'We'll succeed unless we quit.' In this reading of history, the United States was defeated in Vietnam because of a failure of will. If George W. Bush has his way, this won't happen again. U.S. troops are staying in Iraq. In his rigidity, Bush sounds eerily like President Lyndon Johnson, who could not acknowledge until too late his Vietnam policy was in shambles. But in the aftermath of the midterm elections, the calls for 'phased withdrawal' -- coming out of Congress, the Pentagon and the leaky Iraq Study Group -- evoke errors of the Nixon years...

War weariness is the prevailing public sentiment in the third stage of a major U.S. neo-imperialist war. In this prolonged stage, most people have grown tired of the war. They have surrendered their prior illusions about the glorious outcomes it was supposed to bring. They have come to understand that for them it is worse than pointless, that its costs have been real and its benefits a chimera, and that it seems likely to damage them further as it continues. Yet the war goes on and on, with no end in sight. We are now well into this stage of the war in Iraq...

The Tory PM, flanked by Premier Dalton McGuinty and Toronto Mayor David Miller, said anyone charged with attempted murder, armed robbery, sexual assault with a weapon, kidnapping and extortion while using a gun will have to make the case for their freedom under proposed bail rules. The Criminal Code rules, as they exist now, force the Crown to offer up evidence on why the accused should not be granted bail. 'This is unacceptable,' Harper said. 'Our legislation will reverse the onus so that people charged with serious gun crimes will have to demonstrate to the courts why they should not stay in custody until their trial'...

Arlen Parsa writes: "Never before in American history has such a costly war been fought with so little immediate sacrifice asked of all Americans. Less than one year into his first term, President Bush made clear the terms of his war: every other country was either with us, or against us... and that America is once again a participant in a grand 'struggle for civilization.' This rhetoric should come as no surprise considering that the commander-in-chief has already likened himself to other wartime leaders such as Winston Churchill and compared his 'War on Terror' to World War II. Yet, for such a war with so much in the balance, our leaders have asked surprisingly little of us."

A Matter of Definition: What Makes a Civil War, and Who Declares It So?

"Is Iraq in a civil war?" asks Edward Wong. "Though the Bush administration continues to insist that it is not, a growing number of American and Iraqi scholars, leaders and policy analysts say the fighting in Iraq meets the standard definition of civil war. The common scholarly definition has two main criteria. The first says that the warring groups must be from the same country and fighting for control of the political center, control over a separatist state or to force a major change in policy. The second says that at least 1,000 people must have been killed in total, with at least 100 from each side."

Strahlungsarme DECT- Schnurlostelefone

"Unter dem Aspekt einer vorsorglichen Reduzierung der Exposition ist zu fordern, dass die Basisstationen im Stand-by-Betrieb automatisch abgeschaltet und die Telefone mit einer bedarfsgerechten Regelung der Sendeleistung ausgestattet werden.

Diesen Forderungen sind mittlerweile einige Hersteller nachgekommen.

Zu Beginn des Jahres 2006 erschienen erstmals zwei Geräte (Hersteller: Orchid und Swissvoice) auf dem deutschen Markt, die eine Abschaltung bzw. Absenkung des Kontrollsignals zwischen Basisstation und Mobilteil ermöglichen. Hierzu muss sich das Mobilteil in der Basis befinden und es darf nur ein Mobilteil an der Basis angemeldet sein. Damit können diese Geräte als "bedingt strahlungsarm" bezeichnet werden. Strahlungsarme DECT-Telefongeräte sollten folgende Kriterien erfüllen:

* Abschaltung oder mindestens 100.000fache Absenkung des Kontrollsignals im Standby-Betrieb unabhängig von der Anzahl der angemeldeten Mobilteile, wobei sich das Mobilteil nicht notwendigerweise in der Basis befinden muß;
* Bedarfsgerechte Regelung der Sendeleistung des Mobilteils beim Telefonieren in mehr als 2 Stufen ähnlich der beim Handy;
* Bedarfsgerechte Regelung der Sendeleistung auch der Basisstation während des Telefonierens;
* Möglichkeit des Anschlusses eines Headsets an das Mobilteil;
* Möglichkeit der Einstellung / Begrenzung der Reichweite. "

In einer Tabelle sind die zurzeit bzw. in Kürze auf dem deutschen Markt erhältlichen "bedingt strahlungsarmen" DECT-Schnurlostelefone sowie Art und Ausmaß ihrer Strahlungsreduzierung aufgelistet.

Es ist eher unwahrscheinlich, dass der CT1+ Standart über 2008 hinaus verlängert wird, eher kann man sicher sein, dass der DECT Standart verlängert wird.

Liberale treten für eine Kennzeichnung strahlungsarmer Mobiltelefone ein
http://dip.bundestag.de/btd/16/033/1603354.pdf

Auszug

"Entgegen der öffentlichen Besorgnis könne es durch den Gebrauch von Handys und Mobiltelefonen eher zu einer hohen Exposition der Nutzer kommen als durch ortsfeste Sendeanlagen.

Für den mündigen Verbraucher ist es deshalb unerlässlich, eine technisch fundierte und souveräne Entscheidung darüber treffen zu können, welche Rolle die Strahlungsintensität bei seiner Kaufentscheidung spielen soll. Hilfreich ist in diesem Zusammenhang eine einheitliche Kennzeichnung der Geräte, um Käufer und Nutzer schon beim Erwerb über die Strahlungswerte aufzuklären."

Der deutsche Verbraucher- und Landwirtschaftsminister stimmte Ende September in Brüssel für den Import von gentechnisch verändertem Rapssamen. Das ist ein Skandal. Gentechnisch veränderter Raps gilt unter Experten als besonders "auskreuzungsfreudig". Der Raps ist für Bienen eine ganz zentrale Honig- und Pollenquelle, Gentech-Raps eine Katastrophe für alle Imker. Selbst hartgesottene Gentechnikbefürworter geben zu, dass diese Pflanze mit vielen verwandten wildlebenden Arten innerhalb kürzester Zeit unkontrollierbare Verbreitung erreicht.

Trotzdem stimmte Seehofer im Agrarministerrat für Deutschland jetzt für die Zulassung der GV-Rapssorten Ms8, Rf3 und Ms8xRf3 der Firma Bayer. Wenn dieser Vorgang auch die nächste Hürde, die Absegnung durch die EU-Kommission, nimmt, könnte dadurch erstmals gentechnisch veränderte Rapssaat in die EU gelangen.

Die 'Ausrede' der Bundesregierung, der gentechnisch veränderte Raps komme ja nicht auf die Äcker, sondern gelange als Importerzeugnis gleich in die Ölmühlen, zeugt angesichts der illegalen Gentechnik-Maisimporte 2005 und des jetzigen Reisskandals von großer Naivität. Oder hier liegt sogar eine bewusste Verunreinigungsstrategie vor. Weil niemand ausschließen kann, dass der Raps nicht irgendwann doch auf den Äckern wächst. In etlichen anderen Ländern wurden so schon Tatsachen geschaffen.

Das ergaben Testreihen bei europäischen Reismühlen. Kurze Zeit später wurde klar, dass der Reis längst im Handel ist. Nachdem Greenpeace eine kontaminierte Sorte bei Aldi ausmachte, räumte der Discounter vorsorglich die Regale aus. Daraufhin gab die EU-Kommission bekannt, dass in Lieferungen aus den USA auch die von Bayer hergestellte Genreis-Sorte LL 62 gefunden wurde. Diese Information ist von besonderer Brisanz, da der Konzern eine EU-Importzulassung für LL 62 beantragt hat und die Gefahr einer unkontrollierten Ausbreitung stets bestritten hat. Beide Reis-Sorten, LL 601 und LL 62 sind gegen das von Bayer produzierte Herbizid Liberty mit dem Wirkstoff Glufosinat resistent und in der EU nicht zugelassen.

Innerhalb der EU ist mal wieder eine gruselige Richtlinie in Arbeit - ein Geschenk an die Agrarkonzerne wie Monsanto & Co. Die Richtlinie könnte in Zukunft die strenge Bestrafung von Menschen und Unternehmen, die sogenannte "Geistige Eigentumsrechte" verletzen, ermöglichen. Das beginnt beim Herunterladen von Musik aus dem Internet und endet bei der Anklage gegen Bauern und Bäuerinnen, die selbst vermehrtes Saatgut aussäen, ohne Lizenzen oder Nachbaugebühren zu entrichten. Verantwortlicher ist EU-Kommissar Frattini, seine Richtlinie trägt den eingängigen Namen IPRED2. Reto Hilty, anerkannter Fachmann vom Max-Planck-Institut, hat den Entwurf näher begutachtet. Seine Bilanz im rechtswissenschaftlichen Fachblatt GRUR International ist alarmierend. Obwohl ein Strafverfahren für viele Landwirte schon existenzbedrohend werden würde, sieht die Richtlinie sogar vor, dass das gesamte Vermögen beschlagnahmt werden kann und die Ernte vernichtet wird. Der Richtlinienentwurf ("IPRED2") der EU-Kommission: "Richtlinie ... über strafrechtliche Maßnahmen zur Durchsetzung der Rechte des geistigen Eigentums, KOM(2006) 168" ist im Netz zu finden unter: http://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/site/de/com/2006/com2006_0168de01.pdf

A message from Pam

This petition is new to me - if you have already signed, bear with me, and please forward to as many friends as possible. With the GREAT news of the cancellation of the Shanghai Animal Olympics, it is some encouragement to keep trying for these poor creatures.

Thank you.

Tomorrow marks the day that we will have been in Iraq longer than we were in all of World War II.

That's right. We were able to defeat all of Nazi Germany, Mussolini, and the entire Japanese empire in LESS time than it's taken the world's only superpower to secure the road from the airport to downtown Baghdad.

And we haven't even done THAT. After 1,347 days, in the same time it took us to took us to sweep across North Africa, storm the beaches of Italy, conquer the South Pacific, and liberate all of Western Europe, we cannot, after over 3 and 1/2 years, even take over a single highway and protect ourselves from a homemade device of two tin cans placed in a pothole. No wonder the cab fare from the airport into Baghdad is now running around $35,000 for the 25-minute ride. And that doesn't even include a friggin' helmet.

Is this utter failure the fault of our troops? Hardly. That's because no amount of troops or choppers or democracy shot out of the barrel of a gun is ever going to "win" the war in Iraq. It is a lost war, lost because it never had a right to be won, lost because it was started by men who have never been to war, men who hide behind others sent to fight and die.

Let's listen to what the Iraqi people are saying, according to a recent poll conducted by the University of Maryland:

** 71% of all Iraqis now want the U.S. out of Iraq.

** 61% of all Iraqis SUPPORT insurgent attacks on U.S. troops.

Yes, the vast majority of Iraqi citizens believe that our soldiers should be killed and maimed! So what the hell are we still doing there? Talk about not getting the hint.

There are many ways to liberate a country. Usually the residents of that country rise up and liberate themselves. That's how we did it. You can also do it through nonviolent, mass civil disobedience. That's how India did it. You can get the world to boycott a regime until they are so ostracized they capitulate. That's how South Africa did it. Or you can just wait them out and, sooner or later, the king's legions simply leave (sometimes just because they're too cold). That's how Canada did it.

The one way that DOESN'T work is to invade a country and tell the people, "We are here to liberate you!" -- when they have done NOTHING to liberate themselves. Where were all the suicide bombers when Saddam was oppressing them? Where were the insurgents planting bombs along the roadside as the evildoer Saddam's convoy passed them by? I guess ol' Saddam was a cruel despot -- but not cruel enough for thousands to risk their necks. "Oh no, Mike, they couldn't do that! Saddam would have had them killed!" Really? You don't think King George had any of the colonial insurgents killed? You don't think Patrick Henry or Tom Paine were afraid? That didn't stop them. When tens of thousands aren't willing to shed their own blood to remove a dictator, that should be the first clue that they aren't going to be willing participants when you decide you're going to do the liberating for them.

A country can HELP another people overthrow a tyrant (that's what the French did for us in our revolution), but after you help them, you leave. Immediately. The French didn't stay and tell us how to set up our government. They didn't say, "we're not leaving because we want your natural resources." They left us to our own devices and it took us six years before we had an election. And then we had a bloody civil war. That's what happens, and history is full of these examples. The French didn't say, "Oh, we better stay in America, otherwise they're going to kill each other over that slavery issue!"

The only way a war of liberation has a chance of succeeding is if the oppressed people being liberated have their own citizens behind them -- and a group of Washingtons, Jeffersons, Franklins, Ghandis and Mandellas leading them. Where are these beacons of liberty in Iraq? This is a joke and it's been a joke since the beginning. Yes, the joke's been on us, but with 655,000 Iraqis now dead as a result of our invasion (source: Johns Hopkins University), I guess the cruel joke is on them. At least they've been liberated, permanently.

So I don't want to hear another word about sending more troops (wake up, America, John McCain is bonkers), or "redeploying" them, or waiting four months to begin the "phase-out." There is only one solution and it is this: Leave. Now. Start tonight. Get out of there as fast as we can. As much as people of good heart and conscience don't want to believe this, as much as it kills us to accept defeat, there is nothing we can do to undo the damage we have done. What's happened has happened. If you were to drive drunk down the road and you killed a child, there would be nothing you could do to bring that child back to life. If you invade and destroy a country, plunging it into a civil war, there isn't much you can do 'til the smoke settles and blood is mopped up. Then maybe you can atone for the atrocity you have committed and help the living come back to a better life.

The Soviet Union got out of Afghanistan in 36 weeks. They did so and suffered hardly any losses as they left. They realized the mistake they had made and removed their troops. A civil war ensued. The bad guys won. Later, we overthrew the bad guys and everybody lived happily ever after. See! It all works out in the end!

The responsibility to end this war now falls upon the Democrats. Congress controls the purse strings and the Constitution says only Congress can declare war. Mr. Reid and Ms. Pelosi now hold the power to put an end to this madness. Failure to do so will bring the wrath of the voters. We aren't kidding around, Democrats, and if you don't believe us, just go ahead and continue this war another month. We will fight you harder than we did the Republicans. The opening page of my website has a photo of Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, each made up by a collage of photos of the American soldiers who have died in Bush's War. But it is now about to become the Bush/Democratic Party War unless swift action is taken.

This is what we demand:

1. Bring the troops home now. Not six months from now. NOW. Quit looking for a way to win. We can't win. We've lost. Sometimes you lose. This is one of those times. Be brave and admit it.

2. Apologize to our soldiers and make amends. Tell them we are sorry they were used to fight a war that had NOTHING to do with our national security. We must commit to taking care of them so that they suffer as little as possible. The mentally and physically maimed must get the best care and significant financial compensation. The families of the deceased deserve the biggest apology and they must be taken care of for the rest of their lives.

3. We must atone for the atrocity we have perpetuated on the people of Iraq. There are few evils worse than waging a war based on a lie, invading another country because you want what they have buried under the ground. Now many more will die. Their blood is on our hands, regardless for whom we voted. If you pay taxes, you have contributed to the three billion dollars a week now being spent to drive Iraq into the hellhole it's become. When the civil war is over, we will have to help rebuild Iraq. We can receive no redemption until we have atoned.

In closing, there is one final thing I know. We Americans are better than what has been done in our name. A majority of us were upset and angry after 9/11 and we lost our minds. We didn't think straight and we never looked at a map. Because we are kept stupid through our pathetic education system and our lazy media, we knew nothing of history. We didn't know that WE were the ones funding and arming Saddam for many years, including those when he massacred the Kurds. He was our guy. We didn't know what a Sunni or a Shiite was, never even heard the words. Eighty percent of our young adults (according to National Geographic) were not able to find Iraq on the map. Our leaders played off our stupidity, manipulated us with lies, and scared us to death.

But at our core we are a good people. We may be slow learners, but that "Mission Accomplished" banner struck us as odd, and soon we began to ask some questions. Then we began to get smart. By this past November 7th, we got mad and tried to right our wrongs. The majority now know the truth. The majority now feel a deep sadness and guilt and a hope that somehow we can make make it all right again.

Unfortunately, we can't. So we will accept the consequences of our actions and do our best to be there should the Iraqi people ever dare to seek our help in the future. We ask for their forgiveness.

We demand the Democrats listen to us and get out of Iraq now.

International Energy Agency calls for 200 new nukes

In a report just published, the International Energy Agency promotes nuclear power as the solution which will save us from global warming. But who will save us from nuclear power?

Bananenrepublik Deutschland?

In der weltweiten Rangliste der Korruptionländer ist Deutschland von einem früheren guten Platz bereits ins Mittelfeld abgerutscht - hinter Hongkong! Das Ergebnis ist offensichtlich: Deutschlands Spitzenverdiener werden zum Standortrisiko Nummer eins.

The government told Horvat to get a lawyer. Horvat, tired and with limited funds, cannot compete with the government and their unlimited use of taxpayer's funds. I personally believe that the government stole Horvat's invention. The circumstances strongly suggest it. The government and their big business accomplices will make trillions of dollars from a decidedly criminal act against a well-intentioned citizen.....
