Fox News and reports from a variety of domestic and foreign spy agencies compiled by multiple sources to the rescue. All the information in this report is old, checked, tested and garbage. One more poor attempt to validate the illegal war.

The Long Term Threat From Terrorism
cknykid replied to Moderate Centrist's topic in The Rest of the World
The reasons of Islamic fundamentalism are legalizing gay marriage and pot. There are no root causes that are stoking Muslim anger. Both of you must be on top of your class. This is ground breaking research. People in Middle East are blowing themselves up because they don’t want to see sex in the city on TV. The news organization’s you have used for research are NY POST and FOX NEWS, no wonder you are more up-to-date than prime Minster Dick Chaney. People in Palestine, Kashmir, Chechnya, Philippines, Bosnia, Iraq and Afghanistan are protesting against liberal views. They want to keep their women locked in the house.In related news released by Israel army when Israeli army fired in the air on rock throwing Palestinian kids who were protesting the showing of queer eye for the straight guy, five kids died. General shalom blamed the whole incident on the dead saying “we only fired in the air-These damn rock throwing kids can fly and hit our bullets”. -
Another Great Us-can Policy Rift

A teenager with little amout of weed should not have a criminal record. Putting him in jail does not solve anything. US war on drug is a joke. Time to make new laws. -
Was Arar Victimized Or Had Terrorist Ties?
cknykid replied to Morgan's topic in Canada / United States Relations
Mr. Arar says he confessed to training in Afghanistan when he was tortured. The guy was tortured. Humm How long will it take to torture you in a Syrian prison when you admit you were the second gunman on the grassy knoll. It was your gunshot that took President Kennedy out. My estimate is 30 minutes if you are really brave -
3 reasons got iraq invaded. Reconstruction contracts, oil and security for Israel.

Hawks who wanted a war first shut down the public imagination using propaganda on the media. They convinced people that there is no other means of preventing invasion, or conquering terrorism, or even defending human rights. When information is scarce, imagination is easy to control. As intelligence gathering and diplomacy are conducted in secret, we seldom discover — until it is too late — how plausible the alternatives may be. The intelligence our governments released suggested that Saddam Hussein was immune to diplomacy or negotiation. Faced with such any enemy, what would we do, the hawks asked? And our responses felt timid beside the clanking rigorous of war. Had the options been as limited as the western warlords and their bards suggested this might have been true. But, as many of us suspected at the time, we were lied to. Most of the lies are now familiar, there appear to have been no weapons of mass destruction and no evidence to suggest that, as President Bush claimed in March, Saddam had "trained and financed... al-Qaeda". Bush and Blair, as their courtship of the president of Uzbekistan reveals, appear to possess no genuine concern for the human rights of foreigners. But a further, and even graver, set of lies is only now beginning to come to light. Even if all the claims Bush and Blair made about their enemies and their motives had been true, and all their objectives had been legal and just, there may still have been no need to go to war. Saddam proposed to give Bush and Blair almost everything they wanted before a shot had been fired. Our governments appear both to have withheld this information from the public and to have lied to us about the possibilities for diplomacy. As for the Kay report its just document mumbo jumbo. He is looking for a gold egg. He didn’t find it and he’s claiming that since he didn’t find it, does not mean it didn’t exist. The hen could have laid it and we have to search all of Iraq to find it. It took $300 million to come to that assessment. The famous aluminum tubes touted in the UN presentation by Mr. Powell are being used as sewerage pipes by Iraqis. Human waste is flowing through them today that in itself speak volume about Iraq’s nuclear program. What else do we have, a lil pipe buried under a rose bush in the backyard of an Iraqi scientist. Webster’s English dictionary has more proof of Iraq’s weapons program than Kay’s report. Both are filled with words written on paper without any proof.

The same cbs report you are talking about shows Israel furnished the "terrorist” Arafat with a personal account in a Jerusalem bank with 1 billion $ in it. He could withdraw money at any amount at his discretion, which he did freely. Also the current and previous Israeli prime Minster’s have been target of corruption probes. What does that have to do with an average Israeli citizen? What Bush, dick Chaney and Blair are doing in Iraq is a robbery and what does that have to do with an average British or American citizen. Anywhere and anyplace where you have power with no checks on it. There would be corruption. When a bank robber was asked “why did you rob the bank"? He replied" well that’s where the money is".

*fighting to get rid of occupation forces

What are your views about the bombing of King David hotel in Jerusalem 50 years ago. Jerusalem is the birth place of modern day terrorism. King David hotel was a civilian target that had two of its floor being used by the colonizing British forces as there headquarter. The rest of the hotel was being used by civilians, it had a bar, restaurants and African waiters with colorful uniforms. It was the symbol of power of an empire. Zionist Jews used six different bombs to blow up the hotel and as a result of the explosion 94 people died, most of which were civilians. The leader of that Zionist group Mr. Begin later became a prime Minster of Israel. Was this an act of terror?. And is Mr. Begin a murdering terrorist or a freedom fighter fighting for occupation?.

Others in the Israeli government knew Sharon was responsible for the massacre in the refugee camps that is the reason why he was fired as the defense Minster, after he refused to resign voluntarily. Sabra and shitla was not the only massacres he had his dirty hands in. Qablya was another massacre he had his hand in and it happened way before the other too. Feel free to look it up.

If you watch 60 minutes you will see that Israel provided Arafat with a personal account in his name in a Jerusalem bank with $1 billion of pa funds in it. I forgot the name of the bank with i recall it was luavs or something that sounded like that. There is no dispute about that. He could withdraw money from it and did, anyhow he pleased. It was his hand-on spending money to get Gaza and west bank under his control. If this is not enough for you than you are pretty fair and balanced.

Israel furnishing Arafat with a secret account with 1 billion dollar in it--check this weeks cbs "60 minutes'. You can purchase a copy from their website. All the proof you need in black and white.

Israel is a failed country that is running its economy with us taxpayer’s handout of 10 billion a year. All the credit of turning the desert green goes to us tax payers. It has been 50 years since Israel got its freedom but its economy is still in a shape where without us tax payer charities it would be no different than any third world country if not even worse. Israel has also been in bed with Arafat for a very long time. Israel has Arafat open secret bank accounts in Israel for a very long time in which billions are deposited. Arafat is supposed to use that cash to ease the suffering in west bank and Gaza and also to stop the flow of suicide bombers by paying people off. That all looks good on paper but in reality Arafat, his henchmen and the Israeli establishment are all corrupt money hungry weasels that have helped themselves with the loot. So all the news about doing this and that Arafat is nothing more than a good old act of drama.

Again Arafat is not the root cause of this problem--its occupation—Arafat is incompetent, inept and lacks the ability to lead. That is exactly the reason why Israel is letting him stay and not exiling him, but all the chaos in the Middle East is not because of Arafat nomatter how many pa funds he gobbles up. We have Zionist ideology to thank for all the bloodshed. If Arafat’s leadership makes Palestinians dumb--what does it say about Jews for choosing war criminal Sharon? Why did he had to resign as the defense minister?? Answer. Genocide in sabra and shetila refugee camps (2000 people died). What kinds of people pick a person like that to lead?

Make a long story short--it’s not the hate for the Jews but the Jewish occupation with an agenda to annex more land without its native people that holds Palestinians back--but oh well carry on with the Jewish love thy master propaganda.

The wall is the continuation of Israeli settlement expansion, and the construction of the wall should be called settlement +. The growth of settlements and the expropriation of Palestinian land, both of which have intensified expose the true nature of Israel’s practices in the occupied territories--to consolidate occupation by creating immovable facts on the ground and therefore prejudice the final outcome of peace negotiations for a two-state solution. Israel would try to "defend" its borders by building a concrete 24-foot-high wall deep inside the territory of another country--a neighbor with which Israel purportedly wants to live in peace. The wall has been used as a pretext to confiscate more than 20,000 acres of Palestinian agricultural land. As an expansion project meant to colonize more land, the wall makes perfect sense. It surrounds and isolates Palestinian population centers and villages from their open agricultural land, while further separating Palestinians from illegal Jewish settlements also built on their land. It is part and parcel of other Israeli measures in the occupied territories which are creating two separate communities--one Jewish, the other Arab--that are separated physically and subject to two separate legal systems, economic opportunities, and restrictions down to the very roads they are allowed to drive on. In South Africa, they called this apartheid.

Israel is a state created on the base of racist hateful ideology “Zionism”. Zionism is a racist ideology that pursues an exclusively (or exclusionary), politically defined state of legalized Jewish-supremacy. Modern racism is based on a {false} notion of human biology and on a skewed interpretation of the ill-considered theory of Social Darwinism. Modern racism posits that human beings can be divided into specific racial categories by virtue of their bloodlines. According to this theory, each race has its own physical and behavioral characteristics, and there is a hierarchy of races. The superior race, racists believe, have the right to rule inferior races. In this view of the world, the purity of race, that is to say, the non-mixing of higher quality races with lower quality races is a driving force behind the structure of society. The word Zionism is used today for the foundational ideology of the Israeli nation state - the claims by which it justifies its existence. The Zionist movement historically made a claim to territory on behalf of 'the Jewish people', an exclusive geopolitical claim. It claimed that individual Jews had a right to residence in that territory, which did not apply to randomly selected non-Jews outside that territory. Ethnic cleansing preceded the establishment of the Sate of Israel in 1948. Zionism attributes an inferior status to members of non-Jewish ethno-national groups: that they lack the absolute right to residence in the Jewish homeland, and to citizenship of a Jewish nation state. The State of Israel confers no right of residence or citizenship on persons born outside Israel, unless they have specific links to Israel, to the Jewish people, or to Judaism. That excludes about 99% of the world population. Israeli immigration is essentially for Jews only, and this is the most obviously racist policy of present Zionism. Zionism was an expression of British colonialism in the Middle East (parallel to the Duch colonial ideology in SA and the French colonial ideology in Algeria) that observed the settlement of Palestine with Jewish Europeans. This also helped Europe to get rid of its Jews. After WWII Europeans supported the emigration of Jews to Palestine and the creation of a Jewish state as a solution to the Jewish refugee problem after the war. The moral meaning of this position was that Europe did not have to deal really with its responsibility over the holocaust. As in all history of modernity the non-white third world nations who paid the bill for the social constrains in Europe: the Palestinian Arabs were deported, slaughtered and segregated. Palestine is a bitter example of how people are made to suffer because of struggle to control land without its indigenous people. It is an unfortunate state of affair where the illegal occupation of land by foreign people tends to make the life of native people miserable. A foreign occupation is a terrorist act in its own. I wish you could explain how taking away people’s freedom is not terrorism and fighting for one’s freedom is terrorism. A war begun by Israel against a "Palestinian" enemy -- an entire people is a war that is instilling total fear, insecurity, terror and death to a total population. How can there be peace when every moral measure of every action of a demented religious sect is in the light of, Is it good for the Jews and they believe in a religious ideology which tells them of "the Jewish People" as "special, chosen, holy and supreme’. The occupation of Palestine started with an ideology that denied the very existence of the Palestinian people and pursued a colonial agenda asserting divine claims to acquire the "land without the people." They are subjected to curfews, expulsions, home demolitions, legalized torture, and a wide variety of human rights violations. The negotiations with Israel have given them nothing but promises of autonomy over there impoverishment, implementing what is acceptable to the mighty and treating facts established illegally as the basis for a settlement. The relentless denial of Palestinian rights without an effective international response has left them acutely aware that self-help is there only hope. They are facing a brutal occupation with bare chests and empty arms. International law gives a people fighting an illegal occupation the right to use “all necessary means at their disposal" to end their occupation, and the occupied “are entitled to seek and receive support" (I quote here several United Nations resolutions). Armed resistance was used in the American Revolution, the Afghan resistance against Russia, the French resistance against the Nazis, and even in the Nazi concentration camps, or more famously in the Warsaw Ghetto. Palestinian resistance varies from that which is non-violent and widespread: simply continuing to live, study, pray and plant in occupied land despite all the odds, to active resistance and the use of violence. This violent resistance can be defensive (and to my mind morally acceptable), such as the resistance of the fighters of Jenin refugee camp as Israeli death machines approached, or in the form of unacceptable offensive acts, such as the bombing of Israelis celebrating a Passover meal. In all these cases, it is individuals that choose their form of resistance; the choices they make should not color the entire nation. And, as we have seen, both peaceful and violent resistance is met with profound state violence from the Israeli side. Violent resistance arises from an inhuman military occupation, one that levies punishment without fairness, denies the possibility of livelihood and diverts the prospects of a promising future. The Palestinian people have not gone to another people’s homeland to kill or dispossess. Their ambition is not to blow themselves up in order to terrify others. They are asking for what all other people have and deserve, a decent life in a homeland. What is most troubling about the critiques of there resistance is that they seem to care little about there suffering, the withholding of what they once possessed, and the violation of there most basic rights. Their murders leave those critics cold. There peaceful, everyday struggle to have a decent life leaves no impression. There is outrage and condemnation when some of them follow the instinct of retaliation and revenge. Israeli security is deemed more important than their livelihood; Israeli children more human than theirs; Israeli pain more inflammatory than theirs. They dismiss them as terrorists, enemies of human life and civilization. And so I emphasize. To submit to injustice is incompatible with psychological health. Resistance is a right, a duty and a remedy for the oppressed. The wall is another attempt to gain more land without its native people. This wall will place Palestinians in a ghetto. Not only will they be isolated from their source of livelihood, but the sick will not be able to reach hospitals and the children will not be able to reach schools. Even the cemeteries will be out of bounds. This wall undermines their infrastructure of existence and will help Israel annex more land in the name of security. Palestinians' land is being stolen, basic rights to freedom of movement and livelihood are systematically violated, and the rights to education, health and even burial are contravened. The instruments of violation are not only guns, tanks and airplanes, but Caterpillar bulldozers and Fiat tractors. If the wall is completed, then 50 percent of the West Bank will be annexed to Israel. In this day and age its amazing a state among nations is placing thousands of people in ghettoes, forcing them to live in subhuman conditions. This wall will not solve Israel's security problems, but rather exacerbate them. By engendering extreme pressure on the Palestinian people, who are already living under dire circumstances, it fosters their sense that there are no prospects for the future, thus motivating people to join extremist groups like the Hamas and Islamic Jihad; the wall only increases the hatred towards the occupiers and promotes bloody attacks. Arafat and his swindling of pa funds is not the root cause of so called Palestinian terrorism. Israel, its Zionist ideology and lengthy occupation is the actual problem. Israel wants to get rid of “terrorism” then its first needs to stop being a terrorist itself.

American and British claims of the hell that Saddam could unleash against the Homeland "on any given day" (as Bush himself put it)--500 tons of chemical weapons, some already mounted in missile warheads, primed and ready for use; "mobile labs" cooking up deadly poisons on the run; eyewitness reports from Iraqi defectors providing irrefutable evidence of banned weapons production; and most ominous of all, an "active" and expanding nuclear arms program that could soon produce "a mushroom cloud" in America's cities--are all completely debunked by Kay's investigation. Kay found that the combination of UN inspections and other international oversight efforts had worked a wonder of disarmament: Iraq's production of chemical, biological and nuclear weapons--which had accelerated greatly in the late 1980s with the eager aid of Saddam ally George Bush I--ended in 1991 and was never re-started, Kay said. What's more, those oh-so-informative defectors--many of whom were paid millions by the Bush Regime--certainly fabricated much evidence that they supplied, and some perhaps were under the direct control of Saddam's secret service, Kay declared. The "aluminum enrichment tubes" that were the Bushists' "smoking gun" for Saddam's "aggressive" nuclear program were likewise abandoned to their fate by American forces, and why not? Even before the war, experts said the tubes couldn't be used in nuclear weapons, a fact belatedly confirmed by Kay's investigators. Some of these "sinister" tubes have been scavenged to make sewage pipes so: There were no weapons of mass destruction. There were no active WMD programs. There were no mobile weapons labs. There was no nuclear program or any efforts to obtain the technology to start one--even after UN inspectors were withdrawn in 1998. "On any given day," Saddam Hussein could not have threatened the United States or neighboring countries, nor passed any WMD material to any terrorist group anywhere in the world. These are not the ravings of anti-war dissidents, but the sober conclusions of David Kay's official $300 million investigation. The entire case for war, put forth so meticulously by the Bushists in national forums and at the UN, was based on lies, bribes, distortions--and threadbare intelligence cooked to order for the conspirators in the White House, who set up a system that deliberately ignored or rejected any finding that clashed with their unalterable plans for aggression and conquest. The Bushists are now in full flight from the reality of Kay's report: hiding it, twisting it, pretending it doesn't mean what it clearly says--but their own evidence cries out against them. They planned and executed a war of aggression in the full

The site in the first link is made by some Hindus in India. They fear the spread of Christianity in India and this site is made in an attempt to tarnish the image of Jesus not with any solid arguments but make believe garbage. It’s really shameful how these lowlifes tried to sell their agenda in the disguise of an intelligent debate about religion.

As the government of the Jewish state forces the Palestinians in ghettos, history must be turning in its grave. Qalqiliya, a city of 45,000, has been surrounded by a concrete wall and only those who are granted permits by the Civil Administration can enter and exit the city's single gate. After placing them on small "islands," Israel is now "encouraging" them to leave their ancestral homes by undermining their infrastructure of existence. The goal, so it seems, is to annex the land uninhabited. The New Berlin wall is being used as an extremely efficient weapon of dispossession and abuse. The Palestinians' land is being stolen, basic rights to freedom of movement and livelihood are systematically violated, and the rights to education, health and even burial are contravened. The instruments of violation are not only guns, tanks and airplanes, but Caterpillar bulldozers and Fiat tractors. The wall will not solve Israel's security problems, but rather exacerbate them. By engendering extreme pressure on the Palestinian people, who are already living under dire circumstances, it fosters their sense that there are no prospects for the future, thus motivating people to join extremist groups like the Hamas and Islamic Jihad; indeed, the wall only increases the hatred towards the occupiers and promotes bloody attacks.

I have a lot of respect for anyone who puts on a uniform to serve there country. Jessica lynch is very fortunate to serve her country Her unit made a wrong turn on the road and unfortunately she ended up in a big gun battle with Iraqis in which she was shot multiple times. She was lucky she survived when many others died and she is a hero for that. After that the Iraqis found her wounded, they treated her in a hospital, they even did two major operations on her. After this the story gets twisted in the media. The rest of the story is made for propaganda. When the us army blasted the hospital doors, she was resting in her bed. She was there resting for two days and one of her doctors went to the American army and gave them all her information and told them she was unguarded. If they want they can come and get her. They could have just picked her up but they waited another day figuring out what to do and how to do it. In the end they did everything Texas style and blew up the hospital trying to get to her when they would have brought her out to them if they told the Iraqis to do so. After all this the reality got sanitized and the gurus took some liberty to make some changes, applied a lil spin job and made it into a media event. What she went through was heroic enough; it’s hard to understand why anyone would want to cheapen that by adding lies to it. Hats off to guru’s who always push there agenda in the name of freedom.

In the Battle of Algiers, French won that battle, but lost the war. The resistance in Iraq is following a familiar anti-colonial pattern. In Algiers anyone would have seen acts carried out by the Algerian’s almost half a century ago, which could have been filmed in Fallujah or Baghdad last week. Then, as now, the occupying power described all such activities as "terrorist". Then, as now, prisoners were taken and tortured, houses that harboured them or their relatives were destroyed, and repression was multiplied. In the end, the French had to withdraw. As American "postwar" casualties now exceed those sustained during the invasion (which cost the Iraqis at least 15,000 lives). Few can deny that Iraq under US occupation is in a much worse state than it was under Saddam Hussein. There is no reconstruction. There is mass unemployment. Daily life is a misery, and the occupiers and their puppets cannot provide even the basic amenities of life. The US doesn't even trust the Iraqis to clean their barracks, and so south Asian and Filipino migrants are being used. This is colonialism in the epoch of neo-liberal capitalism, and so US and "friendly" companies are given precedence. Even under the best circumstances, an occupied Iraq would become an oligarchy of crony capitalism, the new cosmopolitanism of Bechtel and Halliburton. It is the combination of all this that fuels the resistance and encourages many young men to fight. Few are prepared to betray those who are fighting. This is crucially important, because without the tacit support of the population, a sustained resistance is virtually impossible. The Iraqi’s have weakened George Bush's position in the US and enabled Democrat politicians to criticise the White House, with Howard Dean daring to suggest a total US withdrawal within two years. Even the bien pensants who opposed the war but support the occupation and denounce the resistance know that without it they would have been confronted with a triumphalist chorus from the warmongers. Most important, the disaster in Iraq has indefinitely delayed further adventures in Iran and Syria. One of the more comical sights in recent months was Paul Wolfowitz on one of his many visits informing a press conference in Baghdad that the "main problem was that there were too many foreigners in Iraq". Most Iraqis see the occupation armies as the real "foreign terrorists". Why? Because once you occupy a country, you have to behave in colonial fashion. This happens even where there is no resistance, as in the protectorates of Bosnia and Kosovo. Where there is resistance, as in Iraq, the only model on offer is a mixture of Gaza and Guantanamo. Nor does it behove western commentators whose countries are occupying Iraq to lay down conditions for those opposing it. It is an ugly occupation, and this determines the response the resistance is predominantly Iraqi--though I would not be surprised if other Arabs are crossing the borders to help. The key fact of the resistance is that it is decentralized--the classic first stage of guerrilla warfare against an occupying army. As for the UN acting as an "honest broker", forget it--especially in Iraq, where it is part of the problem. Meanwhile a beaming fraudster, Ahmed Chalabi, was given the Iraqi seat at the UN. The only norm recognized by the Security Council is brute force, and today there is only one power with the capacity to deploy it. That is why, for many in the southern hemisphere and elsewhere, the UN is the US. Sooner or later, all foreign troops will have to leave Iraq. If they do not do so voluntarily, they will be driven out. Their continuing presence is a spur to violence. When Iraq's people regain control of their own destiny they will decide the internal structures and the external policies of their country. One can hope that this will combine democracy and social justice, a formula that has set Latin America alight but is greatly resented by the Empire. Meanwhile, Iraqis have one thing of which they can be proud and of which British and US citizens should be envious: an opposition.

The whole world is a melting pot and Israel is a state built on outdated crazy religious ideology. It's a so-called democrsy to serve the needs of a master race. A state that wants to serve only the chosen ones {Jews}. The world isn’t at the Stone Age but Israel is. Hard to see the difference between Nazi Germany and Israel today. Hitler wanted to create an ethnic-cleansed society for the benefit of the master race. Is Israel any different? Does Israel believe in an equality of races?, is it demanding the subordination of the weaker, trying to eliminate the weak and believe that because god promised them greater Israel they are simply entitled to acquire more land for themselves. Does Israel acquire land by force? Hitler did it before, Israel is doing it today. If Hitler was a threat to world peace then, Israel is a threat to world peace today. Every Zionist is a Nazi hiding behind religion.
