Nicolas Sarkozy 'Bans Tall Workers From Factory Walkabout'
Wednesday, 16 June 2010 09:56
The 5ft 5ins tall leader is alleged to have sent aides to the
plant ahead of an official visit, to stop anyone over 5ft 6 ins from
appearing alongside him. The claims come just a week after Mr Sarkozy
was reported to have banned tall bodyguards from his presidential
protection team.'

Rothschild Zionist Harper Wants NDP to Fire Deputy Libby Davies
for Criticism of Israel Wednesday, 16
June 2010 09:48
'Stephen Harper called NDP House leader Libby Davies an extremist
and then compared her to Helen Thomas, the long-time White House
correspondent who was forced to resign recently over controversial
remarks about Israel.
He didn’t stop there.
He demanded that her boss, NDP Leader Jack Layton, fire Ms.
Davies, a Vancouver MP, who is also the party’s deputy leader, over
remarks she made that questioned Israel’s right to exist.'

The Hidden Wealth of the Catholic Church Wednesday, 16 June
2010 09:25
'The Catholic Church is currently being shaken by a number of
financial scandals, not only in Franconia but also in Augsburg, another
Bavarian city, where Bishop Walter Mixa's dip into funds from a
foundation that runs children's homes recently made headlines.
More than €40 million have gone missing in the Diocese of
Magdeburg in eastern Germany, €5 million have disappeared in Limburg
near Frankfurt, and it was recently discovered that a senior priest in
the Diocese of Münster had 30 secret bank accounts. And while
parishes
throughout Germany are cutting jobs and funds for community work, many
bishops are still living on the high horse. A brand-new residence? An
ostentatious home for their retirement? Restoration of a Marian column
to the tune of €120,000? None of these expenditures presents a problem
to high-ranking church officials from Trier in the west to Passau in
the southeastern corner of Bavaria, whose coffers are brimming with
cash.'

Israeli Nuclear Missile Boats Off Iranian Coast Wednesday, 16

'Israel is stationing three of its five Dolphin class submarines
in the Red Sea, and will keep one of them operating off the Iranian
coast at all times. These subs will be armed with cruise missiles
(equipped with nuclear warheads).
The Israelis have developed a cruise missile, which is has a range
of 1,500 kilometers and carries a 200 kiloton nuclear warhead. The
objective of deploying nukes on subs is to further enhance deterrence
to any nation launching a nuclear strike against Israel. If one of the
Dolphins are always at sea, even a first strike against Israel would
not prevent a nuclear strike by submarine launched nukes.'

Obama To Push Nightmare Carbon Tax In Oval Office Speech
Wednesday, 16 June 2010 08:33
'President Barack Obama will tonight dispense with all restraint
and fully exploit the BP oil spill to push the nightmare globalist
agenda of a green economy, a carbon tax on human emissions, and an army
of environmental enforcers to implement total big government tyranny.
Obama will announce the acceleration towards an agenda firmly
supported by the transnational oil corporations that he is claiming to
be reigning in – a post-industrial revolution characterized by
artificial scarcity, soaring gas and electricity prices, and a carbon
tax that will cripple the economy and drastically lower the living
standards of American citizens, completely eviscerating the middle

It turns out, Tina was right. She was blamed. Phelps reacted by
telling her to go before the congregation and apologize for her sins.
He said that while Willis might have been 99% responsible, Tina needed

Millions of Patients Should Never be Prescribed Antidepressants,
Scientists Say
Wednesday, 16 June 2010 06:48
'Roughly half the population should never be prescribed
antidepressant drugs because they are only likely to become more
depressed, according to a new study conducted by researchers from
Columbia University and the New York State Psychiatric Institute and
published in the journal Neuron.
Scientists have known for some time that antidepressant drugs only
work in about half of patients. Research has discovered that although
the drugs are designed to raise circulating levels of the
neurotransmitter chemical serotonin in the brain, they actually produce
the opposite effect in large numbers of people. "The more
antidepressants try to increase serotonin production, the less
serotonin [they] actually produce," researcher Rene Hen said.'

Trading in Stock Options Prior to 9/11: Government Destroyed Documents

'Sources tell CBS News that the afternoon before the attack, alarm
bells were sounding over unusual trading in the U.S. stock options
market. An extraordinary number of trades were betting that American
Airlines stock price would fall.
The trades are called "puts" and they involved at least 450,000
shares of American. But what raised the red flag is more than 80
percent of the orders were "puts", far outnumbering "call" options,
those betting the stock would rise. Sources say they have never seen
that kind of imbalance before, reports CBS News Correspondent Sharyl
Attkisson. Normally the numbers are fairly even.'

'Despite Israel's announcement of an internal probe of its deadly
Gaza aid attack, the United Nations continues to push for a full
international investigation. Israel's cabinet approved on Monday an
Israeli inquiry into the May 31 onslaught, which killed 20
international activists onboard the Gaza Freedom Flotilla. The probe,
however, falls short of meeting international demands for impartiality
as the Israeli investigation panel includes no more than two foreign
observers, who have no say on the proceedings and conclusions of the
commission.'

Gilad Atzmon Thu, 10 Jun 2010 08:37 EDT
Panic is detected
in Israel. Strategic affairs minister, Moshe Boogi Ya'alon who served
as acting PM during last week's massacre in the high seas said
yesterday that "someone failed to prepare a standard operating
procedure." A senior IDF official was quick to respond "If there wasn't
a standard operating procedure, why didn't he make sure there was one.
He was the acting prime minister and it was his responsibility." War
criminal Tzipi Livni is also unhappy with the Government for failing to
take responsibility. Two days ago she led a no confidence vote in the
Israeli Knesset.
Seemingly the Israelis are starting to blame each other. This may
look like a positive move, however, not a single Israeli is yet to ask
for forgiveness. Seemingly no one in Israel grasps the scale of the
atrocity in the high seas. No one in Israel comprehends the level of
outrage amongst the nations. Israelis, are instead concerned with their
Hasbara failure, their military operational mistakes and so on. Up
until now, they fail to see that in the high seas, they have managed to
kill Christ again.
Killing Christ is realised symbolically as an assault on goodness,
a crime against kindness and innocence. The cold blooded slaughter of
peace activists in international waters has a very similar effect. It
is an assault on compassion, righteousness and humanism. It is an
attack on everything Christianity and Islam happen to value. As much as
Israelis, Zionists and Neocons are insisting on spreading the deceptive
myth of a Judeo-Christian alliance, it is this last Israeli crime that
made it clear that the Jewish State shares nothing with humanism,
Christianity or Islam. Israel in fact stands against any recognised
Western value.
...(...) We understand that the Palestinians are at the forefront
of the battle against evil. And we obviously stand behind them as one
person. Interestingly enough, politicians are way behind. They still
fail to notice the rapidly emerging worldwide public awareness that
something is deeply sick in the Israeli society and its lobbies around
the world. Our politicians will probably join us later, when their
Zionist money runs out.
By equating Christ's murder with last week's massacre in the high
seas, we can then understand the total failure of the Israeli Hasbara
machine. Instead of standing up and admitting that something went
horribly wrong at sea, Israeli officials reverted to the usual spin.
The Turkish activists had become 'Jew haters', 'Al-Qaeda terrorists',
and the Mavi Marmara had become a 'Boat of Hate'. This tactic is
unfortunately too familiar. It has been employed by Rabbinical Judaism
for two thousand years, especially against the memory of Christ.
I guess that Christians and Muslims will be shocked and outraged
to find out that Yesh'u (יש"ו), the Hebrew name for Jesus, is an
abbreviation that corresponds to the "May his name and memory be
blotted out"*, an expression used for deceased enemies of the Jewish
people like Hitler and Stalin. In the Hebraic culture, Jesus, the
kindest of all people, the son of God, is regarded as the ultimate
enemy. If Jesus is cornered with Hitler, it shouldn't surprise us that
Hasbara officials insist to stick Peace activists with Al-Qaeda.
Seemingly, in the modern Israelite philosophy one becomes a Yesh'u hate
figure once hit by an Israeli bullet.
The Judaic hatred towards Jesus, as reflected by the Hebraic
abbreviation Yesh'u is pretty revealing in the context of the latest
Israeli massacre. Rather than accepting its crime and genuinely
repenting, Israel attempted to portray the Turkish martyrs as the
ultimate Jewish enemies. Seemingly, this attempt failed completely. The
Free Gaza flotilla is now making it into a symbol of hope and
compassion. Israel, on the other hand shoved itself into a corner. This
is a tragic prophecy that fulfilled itself. Israel will never recover,
it simply can't.

World Hits Home at Shutter Speed
Kate Geraghty The Sydney Morning Herald Sat, 12

Bali...an Australian air force medic sits with injured Australians
awaiting evacuation after the 2002 bombing.////
Giving
people a voice and telling their stories has put Walkley Award-winning
Sun-Herald photographer Kate Geraghty in harm's way on more than one
occasion. But joining the flotilla of aid ships trying to break
Israel's blockade of Gaza unexpectedly turned her into the headline.
This is her story.
The black-clad Israeli commando looked straight into the camera
lens as the flash lit up the swirling smoke from exploding tear gas
canisters all around him.
It was the photograph that perfectly captured the storming of the
Free Gaza Flotilla trying to break the Israeli blockade and get aid
into Gaza. It was also one of the photographs I took that will never be
seen.
Then I was hit with this stunning pain in my lower arm, below the
elbow, and I was thrown a metre and a half across the deck. Others had
seen a white flash, I had a burn on my arm and after I checked for
blood and found none I realised I had been hit with a stun gun.
By then it was too late to do anything else. Six armed commandos
climbed over the rails and ordered: "Down! Sit down! Get down!"
My colleague, reporter Paul McGeough, told them: "We're with The
Sydney Morning Herald." And another commando said: "We know you're with
the Herald."
I was stunned but for a completely different reason. "Bloody hell
- Aussie accents."
"No worries," the commando said. I was
frightened but, even
more, I was really quite annoyed. What were Australians doing behaving
like this? ...(....)

European Jewish Group to Launch Flotilla to Break Gaza Blockade
Richard Hall The Huffington Post Wed, 09
Jun 2010 20:59 EDT
A
Jewish European peace group is to launch a boat to break the blockade
of Gaza in the coming months, organizers said, almost a week after nine
activists were killed making the same trip.
European Jews for a Just Peace (EJJP) - an umbrella organization
of Jewish groups from 10 European countries against the occupation of
Palestine - aim to deliver humanitarian aid such as school books and
medicines to the Gaza Strip, and to draw attention to the blockade
which they call "immoral."
"We want to show that not all Jews support Israel," said Edith
Lutz, a German member of the EJJP. "We are calling for a just solution
and for an end to the blockade."
On board the ships will be activists from across Europe including
Germany and the UK, as well as an 85-year-old Holocaust survivor from
Israel. The voyage was originally meant to carry only a small number of
activists together with journalists from Europe and Israel, but
organizers say that a huge response from the Jewish community has meant
that a second boat has been arranged, and the possibility of a third is
being discussed.
"In the beginning it was not meant to be an exclusively Jewish
trip, we had a variety of people. But many more Jewish people came
forward wanting to come on board, and we realized this was important
politically," said Lutz.
This sentiment was echoed by Glyn Secker, a member of the British
based Jews for Justice for Palestinians who will captain the ship. "I
think it will have particular significance because it is a group of
Jewish people saying that as Jews, we are critical of Israeli policy.
We believe that there should be a just peace for the Palestinians," he
said.
Organizers hope to draw attention to the injustice of the blockade
whilst delivering much-needed supplies to the impoverished territory of
1.5 million people, 80 percent of whom rely on some sort of food aid
according to the UN agency for Palestinian refugees UNRWA.
"The supplies are symbolic," said Secker, "they include medical
supplies, books, art materials and some musical instruments to give to
the children. We want to make a very clear moral statement that the way
Israel is treating the Palestinians is, we believe, extremely immoral.
We want to say emphatically: 'not in our name,'" Secker added.
Another motivation for the trip, organizers said, was the effect
Israeli policies have on the treatment of Jews living outside of Israel.
"We are frightened that Israeli policies will help anti-Semitism
to grow. We also want to show that these actions are not Jewish," said
Lutz.
The group said they will depart from a port in an undisclosed
country toward the end of July. The current number of people on board
is approximately 40, but organizers said this number could grow by the
time they depart.
Egypt and Israel have maintained the blockade since Hamas won
elections in Gaza in 2006, with Israel describing it as an essential
measure to stop weapons from reaching Hamas militants.
Rights group Amnesty International has condemned it as "collective
punishment" and UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay last
week said the blockade was illegal and should be eliminated.
The activists planning the journey said they were shocked when
they heard about the deaths of other activists trying to deliver aid
last week, and were unsure whether they would reach their target.
"I cannot tell you whether the trip will be a success or if will
get to Gaza. But we will be successful in telling the world that we
don't agree with the blockade," said Lutz.

Anti-Empire Report
Fri, 11 Jun 2010 13:54 EDT
The
worst thing that ever happened to the Jewish people is the Holocaust.
The second worst thing that ever happened to the Jewish people is the
state of Israel.
Things internationally are so dispiriting there's nothing left to
do but fantasize. I picture Turkey, as a member of NATO, demanding that
the alliance come to its defense after being attacked by Israel. Under
Article 5 of the NATO charter an armed attack on one member is deemed
to constitute an armed attack on all members. That is the ostensible
reason NATO is fighting in Afghanistan - the attack against the United
States on September 11, 2001 is regarded as an attack on all NATO
members (disregarding the awkward fact that Afghanistan as a country
had nothing to do with the attack). The Israeli attack on a
Turkish-flagged ship, operated by a Turkish humanitarian organization,
killing nine Turkish nationals and wounding many more can certainly
constitute an attack upon a NATO member.
So, after the United States, the UK, Germany, France and other
leading NATO members offer their ridiculous non-sequitur excuses why
they can't ... umm ... er ... invoke Article 5, and the international
media swallows it all without any indigestion, Turkey demands that
Israel should at least lose its formal association with NATO as a
member of the Mediterranean Dialogue. This too is dismissed with scorn
by the eminent NATO world powers on the grounds that it would
constitute a victory for terrorism. And anti-Semitism of course.
Turkey then withdraws from NATO. Azerbaijan and five other Central
Asian members of NATO's Partnership for Peace with Turkic
constituencies do the same. NATO falls into a crisis. Remaining member
countries begin to question the organization's policies as never before
... like please tell us again why our young men are killing and dying
in Afghanistan, and why we send them to Kosovo and Iraq and other
places the Americans deem essential to their endlessly-threatened
national security.
When Vice President Biden tells the eminent
conservative-in-liberal-clothing pseudo-intellectual Charlie Rose on TV
that "We have put as much pressure and as much cajoling on Israel as we
can to allow them [Gaza] to get building materials in," 1 Rose for once
rises to the occasion and acts like a real journalist, asking Biden:
"Have you threatened Israel with ending all military and economic aid?
... Have you put the names of Israeli officials on your list of
foreigners who can not enter the United States and whose bank accounts
in the US are frozen, as you've done with numerous foreign officials
who were not supporters of the empire? ... Since Israel has committed
both crimes against the peace and crimes against humanity, and since
these are crimes that have international jurisdiction, certain Israeli
political and military personnel can be named in trials held in any
country of the world. Will you be instructing the Attorney General to
proceed with such an indictment? Or if some other country which is a
member of the International Criminal Court calls upon the ICC to
prosecute these individuals, will the United States try to block the
move? ... Why hasn't the United States itself delivered building
materials to Gaza?"
When Israel justifies its murders on the grounds of
"self-defense", late-night TV comedians Jay Leno and David Letterman
find great humor in this, pointing out that a new memoir by China's
premier at the time of the 1989 Tiananmen Square violent suppression
defends the military action by saying that soldiers acted in
"self-defense" when they fired on the democracy activists. 2
When Israel labels as "terrorists" the ship passengers who offered
some resistance to the Israeli invaders, the New York Times points out
that the passengers who resisted the 9-11 highjackers on the plane
which crashed in Pennsylvania are called "heroes". (As an aside, it's
worth noting that the United States uses 9-11 as Israel uses the
Holocaust - as excuse and justification for all manner of illegal and
violent international behavior.)
Meanwhile, the Washington Post reminds its readers that in 2009
Israel attacked a boat on international waters carrying medical aid to
Gaza with former congresswoman Cynthia McKinney aboard; and that in
1967 Israel attacked an American ship, the USS Liberty, killing 34 and
wounding about 173, and that President Johnson did then just what
President Obama is doing now and would have done then - nothing.
And finally, Secretary of State Clinton declares that she's had a
revelation. She realizes that what she recently said about North Korea
when it was accused of having torpedoed a South Korean warship applies
as well to Israel. Mrs. Clinton had demanded that Pyongyang "stop its
provocative behavior, halt its policy of threats of belligerence
towards its neighbors, and take irreversible steps to fulfill its
denuclearization commitments and comply with international law." 3 She
adds that the North Korean guilt is by no means conclusive, while
Israel doesn't deny its attack on the ship at all; moreover, it's not
known for sure if North Korea actually possesses nuclear weapons,
whereas there's no uncertainty about Israel's large stockpile.
So there you have it. Hypocrisy reigns. Despite my best
fantasizing. Is hypocrisy a moral failing or a failure of the
intellect? When President Obama says, as he has often, "No one is above
the law" and in his next breath makes it clear that his administration
will not seek to indict Bush or Cheney for any crimes, does he think
that no one will notice the contradiction, the hypocrisy? That's a
callous disregard for public opinion and/or a dumbness worthy of his
predecessor.
And when he declares: "The future does not belong to those who
gather armies on a field of battle or bury missiles in the ground", 4
does it not occur to him at all that he's predicting a bleak outlook
for the United States? Or that his conscious, deliberate policy is to
increase the size of America's army and its stockpile of missiles?
Comrades, can the hypocrisy and the lies reach such a magnitude
that enough American true believers begin to question their cherished
faith, so that their number reaches a critical mass and explodes? Well,
it's already happened with countless Americans, but it's an awfully
formidable task keeping pace with what is turned out by the mass media
and education factories. They're awfully good at what they do. Too bad.
But don't forsake the struggle. What better way is there to live this
life? And remember, just because the world has been taken over by
lying, hypocritical, mass-murdering madmen doesn't mean we can't have a
good time. ....(...)
