Note that “The drug smugglers left without casualties,” after inflicting heavy fatalities on Iran's Elite Army. The same way that a rag-tag bunch of illiterate Talibans are now holding off the elite Pakistan Army, and that too after surviving 8 years of intense bombardment by NATO and American forces. A super-human bunch of “drug-smugglers” aren't they, and quite a super-human bunch of antediluvian “Afghanis”! In any other epoch, their nom de guerre surely would have been “Ali Baba, and their formidable weapons of world-conquest their magical flying carpets. See the detailed deconstruction of this super-human “Ali Baba” smugglers who can hold Iran hostage in “Letter to Editor: Iran, the Associated Press, and Covert-War of 'Imperial Mobilization'. In Pakistan's case, the only rational explanation for “Ali Baba's” formidable prowess in the 21st century based on the empiricism of political-science, the historical record of the hectoring hegemons, and the self-evident reality in the right-field while the public is kept distracted in the left-field, is that NATO and American black-ops are fighting the Pakistan Army to depopulate the region and to create the well-known 'Strategy of Tension'.

How politics drives on the agenda
When it comes to tricking the people, British (two party) democracy is one clever system; which is precisely what we would expect when we consider how long it has been around for.
Do you know what is so clever about it?
It pretends to pit one side against the other when really it exists solely to ensure the perpetuation of both for as long as the agenda needs them.
The only way ‘democracy’ can survive in its British format is to have two apparently opposing sides; the remainder of the parties just ‘making up the numbers’.
US health officials "troubled" by new flu pattern
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The new influenza strain circulating around most of the United States is putting a worrying number of young adults and children into the hospital and hitting more schools than usual, U.S. health officials said on Monday.
The H1N1 swine flu virus killed a vice principal at a New York City school over the weekend and has spread to 48 states. While it appears to be mild, it is affecting a disproportionate number of children, teenagers and young adults.
This includes people needing hospitalization -- now up to 200, said Dr. Anne Schuchat of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
"That's very unusual, to have so many people under 20 to require hospitalization, and some of them in (intensive care units)," Schuchat told reporters in a telephone briefing.
Russia to hand over captured pirates to 3rd party
Who are the pirates, and who is the third party? Ha. It's a Big Secret. Now why would that be? - Ed.
MOSCOW, May 19 (RIA Novosti) - Pirates seized by the Russian Navy will be transferred to a third party, the first deputy defense minister said on Tuesday.
"In accordance with existing law, pirates seized by Russian naval forces during patrols will be transferred to a third party," Col. Gen. Alexander Kolmakov said, without specifying which country might accept the pirates.
Twenty-nine suspected pirates were taken on board a Russian warship last month after carrying out an unsuccessful hijack attempt on a Liberian-flagged and Russian-crewed tanker.
Russia has found it difficult to find a country willing to take the detainees, and a deputy to the prosecutor general said last Tuesday that Somali pirates could be prosecuted under Russian laws.
The 13 people who made torture possible
by Marcy Wheeler
May 18, 2009 | On April 16, the Obama administration released four memos that were used to authorize torture in interrogations during the Bush administration. When President Obama released the memos, he said, "It is our intention to assure those who carried out their duties relying in good faith upon legal advice from the Department of Justice that they will not be subject to prosecution."
Yet 13 key people in the Bush administration cannot claim they relied on the memos from the DOJ's Office of Legal Counsel. Some of the 13 manipulated the federal bureaucracy and the legal process to "preauthorize" torture in the days after 9/11. Others helped implement torture, and still others helped write the memos that provided the Bush administration with a legal fig leaf after torture had already begun.
Lieberman in charge of "strategic dialogue" with US
Proving, once again, that Israel has ABSOLUTELY NO INTENTION of EVER EVER EVER MAKING PEACE with the Palestinians. - Ed.
JERUSALEM, May 10 (UPI) -- Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman will be in charge of the country's strategic dialogue with the United States, the Cabinet said Sunday.
JERUSALEM, May 10 (UPI) -- Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman will be in charge of the country's strategic dialogue with the United States, the Cabinet said Sunday.
The appointment means Lieberman will become Israel's point person on the 10-year-old strategic dialogue effort, which serves as a multi-agency, high-level framework for discussions of U.S.-Israeli strategic concerns, The Jerusalem Post reported.
Hunt for Madoff money to drag on for years
Hmm. Where could it be??? Think....THINK..... - Ed.
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Five months after Bernard Madoff's massive fraud was revealed, little of his victims' money has been found and it appears increasingly likely that the worldwide hunt for their missing billions will drag on for years.
So far, the court-appointed trustee sorting through Wall Street's biggest investment fraud has located only about $1 billion to be distributed to defrauded customers -- a fraction of the $65 billion the confessed con man's records purported to have in nearly 7,000 client accounts when the FBI arrested him in December.
Trustee Irving Picard has signaled, however, that he is ramping up efforts to find more money, a ray of hope for victims if these funds can ever be tracked down and shared among them.
Israel warns of Facebook 'spies'
OMG like once, like, eight years ago?, like, this Israeli guy?, you know, he like got lured by this Palestinian woman he met on the internet?, you know, and, like, she killed him. Mmm hmm. So seriously. Be careful. - Ed.
Israel's internal intelligence service urged the public today to exercise caution when using Facebook, saying Arabs are trying to recruit spies on the popular social networking site.
The Shin Bet security agency warned Israelis against answering unsolicited messages or sharing telephone numbers and other sensitive information over the Internet. It said there have been numerous incidents recently in which violent groups tried to recruit Israelis through Facebook and other networking sites.
The agency said in one instance an Israeli Facebook user was contacted by a man who introduced himself as a Lebanese agent and offered money for information about Israel.
The Shin Bet said Israelis should be wary of seemingly innocent meetings or dates proposed online by people they don't know. These messages might be posted by militants with intention to kidnap or kill, it said.
"Terror organizations are using these sites to tempt Israelis to meet up in person in order to either abduct them, kill them or recruit them as spies," the Shin Bet said.
An Israeli teenager was killed eight years ago when he was lured to the West Bank by a young woman he met on the Internet.
Hezbollah ready to defend itself against Israel
Damn are these Arabs anti-semitic, or what? Oh.....umm....nevermind..... - Ed.
BEIRUT - Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah on Monday vowed his Lebanese party stands ready to defend itself against Israel, as Tel Aviv readies large-scale military exercises later this month.
BEIRUT - Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah on Monday vowed his Lebanese party stands ready to defend itself against Israel, as Tel Aviv readies large-scale military exercises later this month.
"There is a possibility, albeit small, that Israel may be preparing to launch a new surprise war and is readying its people for such an eventuality," Nasrallah said in a televised address.
"If Israel plans on pulling anything during the manoeuvres (May 31 to June 4), we're sending it a message that we stand ready and they will fail," he added. "We will not bury our heads in the sand.
Arabs (and anyone else paying attention) sees Israel, not Iran, as nuclear threat
SHUNEH, - Israel's nuclear bombs arsenal poses "the real danger" in the Middle East and not Iran's civilian nuclear programme, Arab League chief Amr Musa said on Sunday.
"The real danger as far as nuclear military programmes are concerned is posed by Israel and not Iran," Musa said during a panel discussion on the future of Middle East peacemaking at the World Economic Forum in Jordan.
"We don't see Iran as the main issue. The vast majority of Arabs does not see Iran as the main issue. Why should we engage with Iran and with Israel?"

What's going on in the world?
By: Veronica Chapman, February, 2008
We are ruled by psychopaths.
Tony Blair is a psychopath.
The Queen & Royal Family are psychopaths.
The Bushes are psychopaths.
The Rothschilds & Rockefellers (etc.) are psychopaths.
Angela Merkel (German Chancellor) is a psychopath.
The Media Mogul Rupert Murdoch is a psychopath.
And so on.
What is a psychopath? It is someone who is born without the gene that creates "conscience", "compassion". (And the one aberration not covered by the Mental Health Act. Lucky for them).
One in every 25 people born are psychopaths.
How, do you think, these people can get a good night's sleep if they were in any way troubled by the outright murder and mayhem - of innocents - they have caused? (Think Afghanistan, think Iraq, think Lebanon)If you keep the bloodlines pure (as these families do), that missing gene will never return. Therefore all subsequent children will be psychopaths.
Only the occasional psychopath becomes an "Axe Murderer". 99.999999% hide their deficiency ... but use it all the time.

Oh here we go..."time to get rid of the paper money" meme
AND REPLACE IT WITH WHAT.....MICROCHIPS?YOU KNEW THIS WAS COMING, RIGHT? - ED.
To reduce the risk of catching swine flu, wash your hands frequently and use tissues when you sneeze -- those are the recommendations from the national Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. But there's another way to protect yourself, even if it's not so good for the economy: Stop handling money.
It doesn't get talked about much, but paper currency -- the dollars, fives, 10s and 20s most people routinely touch every day -- can spread viruses from one person to another. So if you have contact with money that an infected individual has also handled, there's a possibility of catching the flu.
How likely is that? Despite the pervasiveness of cash in society, its role in transmitting illness has been the subject of surprisingly little study. But some recent research suggests that flu bugs can show some staying power when they land on one of the countless bank notes that change hands every day.
2009 swine flu outbreak timeline and the "hate crimes" act
April 1--The first reported case of swine flu in the US is in San Diego.
April 2--HR 1913, the "Hate Crimes" Act is introduced in the US House.
Between April 2 and the 27th, disinfo outlets like CNN and FOX go on a 24/7 hysteria fest, barking like mad dogs who just snorted some meth about the swine flu. Major media outlets like the New York Times didn't see fit to report on the Hate Crimes legislation until April 29.
Guess the Times was too busy spending money and time on the dozens of stories they ran about the swine flu.
During this time, the ADL is busy behind the scenes, cajoling, threatening and maybe even bribing the House to pass the ADL's Hate Crime Laws.

Silent as Death
In the aftermath of the infamous interview with Bp. Richard Williamson earlier this year where he stated with both straight face and clear conscience his belief that “holocaust” history as it has been told now for the last half century is much like any other production coming out of Jewish Hollywood–meaning a work of fiction designed to propagandize the masses–the world was inundated with minute-by-minute/how-by-hour breaking news reports.
Numbering in the millions in terms of dollars, man hours and words spoken, it should be remembered that the well-organized campaign of screeching and howling on the part of Jewish interests concerning the Great Holocaust Heresies of Bp Williamson took place in the midst of an economic meltdown truly apocalyptic in its scope and at a time when America finds herself in the midst of 2 disastrous wars with several more on the back burner just waiting to boil over. Judging by the scale, volume and shrill nature of the reports one would have assumed the world was about to be consumed in a heaven-sent ball of fire with all life on earth destroyed.
The mean drunk may very well be a sociopath
Learn about the -paths and teach your family and friends. This is the information that brings everything into focus. - Ed.
Ever wondered why some, or most people become happy when they drink while a few become really mean and nasty. Well, those mean and nasty drunks that become verbally and even physically abusive may just have an Antisocial Personality Disorder such as psychopathy/sociopathy. Below an older article of interest on the subject and below that a more recent Finnish study.
(Please note: Talking about a pattern here, the same behavior repeating itself time and time again.)
Why the Caged Bird Sang
Some thoughts on why Dick Cheney is such a chatty patty lately after being inexplicably terse for the past eight years. Of course, it could be so that he provides a foil to Obama, you know, make him look much less evil in comparison while he goes about following the same damn policies. - Ed.
Dick Cheney has been doing a lot of talking lately. From his most recent barrage of public statements, we have gleaned that he loves Rush Limbaugh, doesn't much care for Colin Powell, believes President Obama is about to sell the Sixth Fleet to the Taliban for pennies on the dollar and thinks torture is a nifty and effective tool that saves lives and defends freedom. Really, this isn't anything we haven't heard before from our growly, snarly, face-blasting former vice president. But it does beg the question: What the hell is he up to? NPR's Ron Elving posited the question in a Wednesday article titled "What is Dick Cheney Trying to Accomplish?"

Saudi 'killer chip' implant would track, eliminate undesirables
It could be the ultimate in political control — but it won’t be patented in Germany.
German media outlets reported last week that a Saudi inventor’s application to patent a “killer chip,” as the Swiss tabloids put it, had been denied.
The basic model would consist of a tiny GPS transceiver placed in a capsule and inserted under a person’s skin, so that authorities could track him easily.
Model B would have an extra function — a dose of cyanide to remotely kill the wearer without muss or fuss if authorities deemed he’d become a public threat.
The inventor said the chip could be used to track terrorists, criminals, fugitives, [also these people, OBVIOUSLY just as dangerous as terrorists criminals and fugitives:] illegal immigrants, political dissidents, domestic servants and foreigners overstaying their visas.
AIPAC's hidden persuaders
A map contained in a brochure distributed at an AIPAC meeting.‘The Israel lobby is aiming to soften up US public opinion for an attack on Iran,’ writes Richard Silverstein, ‘Americans should resist its propaganda’.
Despite the ballyhoo of the recent Aipac national policy conference in Washington, when Israel-US bonds were feted, relations between the two countries are currently more strained than at any time since 1991. That was when the elder George Bush, as US president, fiercely lobbied Yitzchak Shamir to join in the Madrid peace conference. Relations then reached their nadir when James Baker uttered his infamous remark about Israel’s American-Jewish supporters: “Fuck the Jews, they don’t even vote for us.”

Humans ate the neanderthals into extinction
PARIS, FRANCE - Anthropologists have long been baffled by the mysterious disapearance of the Neanderthals about 30,000 years ago. But one expert thinks he has the answer - we ate them.
Reported in the Journal of Anthropological Sciences, the conclusion is based on markings found on a Neanderthal jawbone found in Les Rois, in south-west France. Cuts on the bone look remarkably similar to those found on deer and other animals butchered by humans.
