Very very important article below!!

The Method to Bush’s Madness in Overthrowing Venezuela

By Investigative Journalist

[editor, Virginia's, not]: Still reading this blog? Well, if you are keeping praying for me!!
Because WHEN, not IF, martial law is declared, I will be one of the first into the camps!! For absolutely definitely for SURE. And if I disappear, only ceasation of publishing the blog will tip anyone off at all. For me, life is absolutely and definitively, a minute by minute event . . .. I just try to keep my freedom on a day by day basis. As I can't even stand up to make armaments, what THEN?? I am just a very very smart "useless eater', obviously.}

11/29/07 "ICH" -- -- Have George w. Bush and the entire U.S. Government gone insane, are they just totally incompetent or worse, is there a method to the madness which is just part of the most ingenious evil plan ever devised?

Note: Our last article linked below described how the US might invade Venezuela and the scenario assumes this happens before they bomb Iran. This articles assumes the Venezuela take over happens later.

In each article I have read in the past few years concerning all the insane things happening worldwide one thing comes to my attention more than anything else, that each article is focused on one particular event and in most cases is written by journalist with a certain expertise in one particular area and in every article the reader is left with knowledge of only 4 of the 5 questions which reporters are supposed to know. Who, What, When and Where of every event is usually reported in detail by the mainstream media (MSM) as well as the Independent media. The most important question is never answered...WHY. This article will attempt to explain why all the unexplainable things are happening around the world.

I have laid awake many a night wondering why world leaders like Bush and the Washington gang are making themselves look like fools, lunatics and incompetent buffoons but in the back of my mind I always believed they had to be smarter than they appear to be so I dedicated myself to figuring this all out. I simply had to know the truth.

Prior to the world trade center attack on 9-11-2001 I had been a political reporter for over 10 years, mostly in Venezuela and the US, specializing in corruption so I already knew that politicians are corrupt but never knew them to be either insane or incompetent or just plain stupid. I also knew the government controls the people through the official reports in the mainstream media but never imagined how far this could go in the name of National Security and preserving American interest.

WHY AMERICANS WILL BELIEVE ALMOST ANYTHING


Over 10 years experience investigating high level government corruption plus 6 years of research, careful study, investigations and analysis have led me to the conclusions which you are about to read in the following paragraphs.

The world is about to undergo some drastic changes due to a hand full of evil, greedy, corrupt people fighting for world domination. The majority of the people in the world do not have any idea what is happening but a few do know and are trying or hoping to stop them. The final outcome for better or worse will depend on how many people become aware of the developing disaster and who puts forth the most effort, the good guys or bad guys. It really is that simple.

When I first heard of the 911 attacks I virtually glued myself to the TV news to see what was going on and what would be next. At first I was shocked but as days passed and new information was coming in it became clear to me that something was terribly wrong with the entire scenario and official government reports. You could call it a reporter’s intuition, gut feeling or plain old common sense but whatever it was I was not the only person who knew something was not right.

In the weeks that followed it was apparent that the U.S. government and MSM were trying to convince me and the world that 19 illegal aliens from the deserts of the Middle East used false documents to enter the U.S., learned to fly airplanes in American flight schools in the Florida Keys using single engine piper cub aircraft then simultaneously hijacked 4 American jumbo jet passenger planes full of people from the most secure airports in the world, took control of the planes in flight using only box cutters and then flew the planes around in restricted airspace for almost 2 hours with no concern from anyone and with the precision flying and navigational skills of veteran air-force pilots flew them into their intended targets, the world trade centers and the Pentagon. Then if the insult to my intelligence was not bad enough they wanted me to believe some guy named OSAMA BIN LADEN, a Saudi billionaire who lives in a cave in Afghanistan, planned it all. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/world/middle_east/1559151.stm
Hijack 'suspects' alive and well

Just days before 911 if you did a search on any web search engine like Yahoo search and looked for ‘’Conspiracy theory’’, you would get about 36,000 results or web sites devoted to exposing some form of government conspiracy. If you do the same search now you will get around 16,000,000 results. There has to be a good reason for the increase and this US administration, the events of 911 and all events since then are the reason. The conspiracy theorist insist and have for the most part proven, thru scientific forensic analysis, eyewitness reports, whistle blowers, government documents, etc that 911 was an inside job, orchestrated by the present U.S. Administration as a pretext for starting the war in Iraq and Afghanistan which will ultimately lead to a regional Middle East war where all nations are involved. http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/?q=node/27683
"Seven countries in five years"


Why am I talking about 911 in an article covering Venezuela? Because 911 was the beginning of the end for Venezuela and you need to know the background events before you can understand what this is all about and why Venezuela is the key to the biggest conspiracy in the history of the world. You also need to understand exactly how dangerous these people are and the lengths they will go to for the sake of preserving U.S. Interest and National security.

Let us go back even further, to about 90 years ago when the U.S. Government first realized that oil was the most valuable resource on the planet. With the industrial age in full swing and everything running on or made from oil, the U.S. was searching worldwide for more sources. Plenty of oil had already been discovered in America, the Atlantic basin and close to America’s doorstep which America claimed and hoarded. It was in or around 1928 when Venezuela became the worlds leading oil supplier but the problem was that the British were in control of it. US President Woodrow Wilson managed to evict the British from Venezuela and put American oil companies in charge. This involved a US led coup and regime change which placed a vicious and corrupt dictator in charge that was fully backed by the US and agreed to throw the Brits out. US oil companies aided by corrupt government officials in Venezuela and the US have robbed the Venezuelan people of unimaginable amounts of money since those days thru the backing of every corrupt Venezuelan leader up to the election of President Hugo Chavez in 1998.

It all began with ”Wilsonian Idealism,” which was actually what we know today as the free trade agreement but in Wilson’s days it was called an ’’OPEN DOOR POLICY’’. The open door policy worked just as the free trade policy works now, which is to open the door when the US sees a possibility of acquiring assets valuable to the US economy and then closing the door once they are in US possession or control.

In every case, as has been observed in the US invasion of over 70 sovereign nations in the past 90 years, there are a few individuals who are willing to join the US in raping their own country and those individuals are the ones placed in political and military control. Then there are the majority of citizens who oppose a US takeover. Those are the ones called ``REVOLUTIONARIES`` ``INSURGENTS`` ``TERRORIST`` and unfortunately they are the ones who are captured, imprisoned for life, tortured, used for experimentation and eventually KILLED.

History has proven that when a 3rd world leader refuses to sign US free trade and other proposals, allowing the US to trade peanuts for oil and other valuable natural resources, the results are always coups, revolutions and a regime change backed by the US. US policy is to keep what it has, and take what it might need in the future, and if taking by force is necessary, so be it. This has been the policy and the pattern for over 90 years. http://www.democracynow.org/article.pl?sid=07/04/16/1338223

According to US banking officials, in the 6 months prior to Chavez winning the elections, which was expected by the opposition, more money from Venezuela’s corrupt elite was deposited in US banks than was left in the Venezuelan treasury. One study on the Venezuelan economy by a German university [reference?] concluded that if corruption were to stop in Venezuela and the opposition and US were to leave President Chavez to working on domestic issues, all of Venezuelans foreign debt could be paid off in one year and every family could be given a nice home, car and food which would last them a lifetime without working at all. This could be done with the sale of natural resources alone in only one year. Something worth fighting for, right?

NOTE: Due to US meddling in Venezuelan domestic policies it has taken President Chavez 8 years to pay off all of the Venezuelan debt, which was held by the International Monetary Fund, (WORLD BANK) which is actually the US Treasury. Venezuela is now free from the IMF and US controls and is helping many other Latin American countries pay off their debt and become free of Imperial capitalist control. This is of course being portrayed by US officials as destabilizing Latin America, radicalism, communism, un-democratic and is a serious threat to US interest and National Security. In reality, when anything is a threat to American interest it is helping the remainder of the world and the US is not going to allow that.

The US government did not stop with the regime change in Venezuela as is evident in documented cases of huge oil reserves being found in Africa also where the US caused more bloody revolutions, regime change, and genocide to secure the oil for America. Indonesia was not spared a large dose of American greed either. President Sukarno was ousted by a US/CIA led coup in 1965 which the American newspapers called “A STAGGERING MASS SLAUGHTER.”

(A CIA study of the events in Indonesia assessed that "In terms of the numbers killed the anti-PKI massacres in Indonesia rank as one of the worst mass murders of the 20Th century…")

It must also be noted that, in addition to the CIA, British and Australian intelligence were well aware of events as they transpired.

Time Magazine presented the following account on December 17, 1966 : "Communists, red sympathizers and their families are being massacred by the thousands. Backlands army units are reported to have executed thousands of communists after interrogation in remote jails. Armed with wide-bladed knives called parangs, Moslem bands crept at night into the homes of communists, killing entire families and burying their bodies in shallow graves."

"The murder campaign became so brazen in parts of rural East Java, that Moslem bands placed the heads of victims on poles and paraded them through villages. The killings have been on such a scale that the disposal of the corpses has created a serious sanitation problem in East Java and Northern Sumatra where the humid air bears the reek of decaying flesh. Travelers from those areas tell of small rivers and streams that have been literally clogged with bodies."

Keep in mind that the US now controls all the oil from those regions as well as Canada, Alaska, and Iraq, Saudi Arabia and various other Mid East countries.

Now it is time to secure oil from Iran, which holds the second largest supply in the Mid East. Iran also controls the ”Strait of Hormuz,” which is the vital shipping route for all oil from the Mid East to the world. There are strategic problems involved with attacking Iran which I have already outlined in my last article at http://www.venezuelanalysis.com/articles.php?artno=2083
Please read it for a full understanding of what is going to happen and why. Then continue with this article.

CONTINUED: Now that you know a few reasons why Venezuela is so important to the future of the U.S., lets take a closer look at why the U.S. is amassing incredible debt, (Over 54 trillion dollars, which can never be repaid http://www.cnsnews.com/ViewNation.asp?Page=/Nation/archive/200711/NAT20071108b.html
Federal Liabilities Now Equal $175,000 for Every American

), creating the North American Union (the US , Canada, and Mexico are to become one country soon http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=7306
Dollar Crisis: None dare call it 'conspiracy'
), complete with newly printed Amero Dollars, circumventing the U.S. constitution with new laws which have given President Bush dictatorial powers (which will be invoked when needed), ignoring the Geneva Convention Rules, pushing for amnesty for illegal aliens, creating a military police state, eliminating personal freedoms and privacy, ignoring Supreme Court decisions, invoking Executive Privilege when confronted, caught, or subpoenaed, building over 700 secret prison camps and completely destroying its image and sowing seeds of hatred worldwide. And the U.S. administration, led by George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, and an extremely dangerous group of others are not one bit concerned or worried. The big question everyone should be asking about all of this, as I have been doing for years, is WHY??? ( Remember when Vice President Cheney said “The U.S. deficit and world debt is unimportant.” Keep reading to understand WHY. http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/02/14/morton.deficit/index.html?iref=newssearch
Cheney says deficits don`t matter, CNN

There are a host of things which analysts from every sector agree on. The US is in Iraq and will be there for decades. The attack on Iran complete with regime change is absolutely necessary for the U.S. to remain world Superpower. This war with Iran can not and will not be won without the use of Nuclear Weapons. Using nukes on Iran will cause a regional war in the entire Middle East which could last for decades. This will cause the current U.S. economy to collapse, causing a violent civil war and revolution (people against people and against the government) within the US. The prison camps will be filled to capacity with the poor and middle class who disagree with the government and ironically those who fight the system of military police state will be forced to work in military complexes building more bombs and weapons for their elected leaders to use for their protection from the ‘’Terrorists’’ who were created by the US government.

The economic collapse will encapsulate the entire planet with the most severe consequences being in First World industrialized countries effectively paralyzing and preventing any country from even considering a military strike or confrontation with the U.S. Attacking the U.S. is a suicide mission and any country capable of inflicting major damage is smart enough to know they have no possibility of winning and will not attempt it. World War 3 is highly unlikely, (BUT NOT IMPOSSIBLE), and the US is betting on this. So what will be the outcome?

The U.S. today controls almost all the oil on the planet, who gets it, how much they get, how much they pay for it and what currency is used to buy it, with the exception of Iran and Venezuela. Creating the Middle East regional war will put the U.S. in control of that entire area, including Iran, but they must accept an economic collapse to do so. Of course all other countries will also be in a state of collapse, with civil wars, revolutions, etc., but since the US has planned this from the beginning decades ago, it will be the only nation able to cope with the circumstances because they know in advance what will happen and when.

With the coming of the global economic collapse most First World and some Third World countries will not only be involved with their own problems of civil wars and revolutions inside their countries, but most areas will erupt into regional war for control of needed resources, even Europe. The corrupt leaders of stronger countries will see this not only as a fight for survival but an opportunity to conquer neighboring lands as they had always wanted. How does the U.S. emerge from this global war as victorious and where does Venezuela fit into the Empire’s evil plans?

This entire scenario of war and economic collapse globally is designed to coincide exactly with the planned implementation of the “North American Union,” ( http://www.infowars.com/articles/nwo/nau_globalists_to_formally_propose_us_canada_mexico_merger.htm
Globalists To Formally Propose Merger Of U.S., Canada, Mexico North American Union), which is scheduled to take place in 2008. Most important is the timing as it is critical that this all happens before the 2008 Presidential elections in the U.S. With the new laws which President Bush has just put into effect it is possible for him to take complete control of the U.S. government, on a federal, state, and local level, invoke martial law, cancel elections and become the first U.S. dictator in the event of any national emergency. ( http://onlinejournal.com/artman/publish/article_2255.shtml
Will Bush cancel the 2008 election?)
If there is a funny part to all of this it has to be that the poor idiots who are just as corrupt as the present administration, who are running for President in 2008, are wasting their time…There will not be another election in the US. If anyone thinks the Bush-Cheney group have gone to this much trouble in the past 8 years just to let some new bunch of crooks come in and reverse all their hard work, they are living in a dream. (Special note: In the event that Bush, Cheney or any other public official leaves office for any reason, nothing will change and the wars will continue...It has been planned and nothing can stop it.)

Now, the world is at war, Bush is at the helm, what next? How does the U.S. survive? Implementing the North American Union strengthens US forces militarily and economically. The U.S. dollar has collapsed and all countries holding U.S. debt have lost trillions which reinforces the global collapse in Russia, China, etc. This also relieves the U.S. of all prior debt. This plan is just as effective as someone declaring bankruptcy to eliminate their debt. (Naturally, this U.S. bankruptcy will be blamed on “terrorists,” which will justify even more wars in the future.)

China has since the end of the cold war with Russia become the only real threat to US supremacy and the US has always known this. All along China has been quietly and covertly planning to first kill the U.S. economically by enticing American corporations to move their operations to China which the Chinese believed was hurting the American economy and this is true to an extent but was all part of the US plan. China was well aware of American Greed and played this to their advantage for over 40 years but U.S. politicians and think tanks were aware of China’s plan. Everyone has always wondered why US politicians did not stand up and make laws forbidding outsourcing most American jobs. Simply because this was not in US interest in the long run. US politicians made billions on this in the process also from payments by China lobby groups and Chinese companies. (It was a trap for china and has worked perfectly.) What the politicians did do is force China to buy trillions of dollars in U.S. treasuries and other now worthless securities to assure the Chinese got the contracts from the big corporations which they thought was slowly crippling the U.S. economy. Banks and financial institutions in England and the U.S. are collapsing as I am writing this and other countries will follow soon because the U.S. allowed the sale of Billions of dollars of securities which were thought by foreign banks to be AAA rated and government guaranteed, but now are worthless. Many more European banks are set to start failing within a few months who all are holding these worthless us investments. Brazil, India, and other countries have also enjoyed the benefits of our greedy outsourcing but that will soon come to an abrupt end and when the dust has settled from the imminent collapse everything will say made in the North American Union. All industry will return from overseas and the U.S. will have plenty of Mexicans willing to do the cheap labor just as the Chinese, Indians, Brazilians, and others are doing now. Imports will be almost non-existent and U.S. exports will once again support the country. (Is the Bush administration pushing for amnesty for illegal aliens starting to make sense now?) The US will soon need those cheap laborers!

NOTE: Illegal aliens and the poor and middle class Americans who are willing to work as slave labor for corporate America will be allowed a certain amount of freedom, but those who rebel and revolt or even dare to criticize the government will find new homes in one of the FEMA ran prison camps and will be working in the military industrial complexes building more weapons or forced to join the military and fight the U.S. wars.

The Amero dollar is born. The U.S. economy is virtually the only economy anywhere, ( just as it was after WW2 when the US Dollar became the world currency), and the US has sufficient oil for itself, which it has been controlling and hoarding for decades but wait, the rest of the world is begging for oil now and the U.S. only has enough for itself so what is the solution?

Venezuela has plenty of oil but Chavez is hoarding it or giving it away to enemies of the US. Chavez is now deemed a “Terrorist” and must be eliminated for the betterment of the New World Order. The fact that the U.S. now has more military stationed in Brazil, Colombia, Paraguay, and other Latin American countries surrounding Venezuela than all the Latin American countries federal agencies combined is no surprise. Curacao is now reported to be a major US military base with missiles pointed at Venezuela. There are also around 4,000 CIA operatives reportedly working inside Venezuela organizing the opposition to President Chavez and are working on causing Zulia state, the oil producing area, to secede from Venezuela, possibly to be taken over by Colombia or operate as an independent Nation [again?] with a leader who is controlled by the U.S.

When the U.S. has successfully eliminated all competition for world dominance and the world once again depends on the U.S. it will be very easy to garner support from all countries to secure the Venezuelan oil, eliminate a Terrorist Dictator and bring freedom and democracy to all of Latin America, by military intervention, bombing, genocide and whatever means are necessary to protect U.S. interest and National Security. At this point not only U.S. interest will be at stake, but world survival will be the question and with Venezuela holding the oil needed, what will be the consequences for Venezuela?

With America safely in control of all the oil they need but the Middle East oil not flowing due to the regional war there will be a world oil shortage. This is why Venezuela is the key to this entire plan for US world dominance. Once the U.S. is in control of the vast Venezuelan oil fields it will sell to the highest bidders but strictly on American terms. (At this point oil will be at least $300 a barrel, gasoline $25 a gallon, the oil companies, politicians, and world elite will be making all the money and the middle class will be eliminated or reduced to slavery for the rich ruling class. Does this sound like fun?)

(THE KEY: The U.S. dollar has collapsed and is worth only pennies on the newly formed AMERO dollar. Other countries’ currencies are totally worthless, so the only choice any country has is to exchange the old U.S. dollars at maybe 6 cents for the new AMERO dollars, which they will need to buy their oil and U.S. export goods.) Naturally all the countries the U.S. helps to reestablish their economy will have to agree to U.S. military presence, trade agreements, and to become U.S. allies in the never ending ”War On Terror.”

Now for the big question everyone is asking or should be asking. Is it possible to avoid the scenario which I have presented? To tell you the truth, I do not know, but I do know that President Chavez is trying to tell you all, and I mean Americans, Venezuelans, and people from all countries that only two choices exist. Stand and Fight the Empire now or kneel down, accept defeat and live your lives Terrorized by evil, corrupt, rich people forever, just as you have always done.

The fact that world leaders and their people are listening to Chavez is reason enough for the regime change in Venezuela whether by another coup or assassination, but the need for oil will cause a full military invasion.

If you still are having a problem understanding why Chavez is fighting so hard to bring socialism vs. capitalism to Venezuela and risking his own life to fight the Empire, please remember this: The U.S. system of government is based on capitalism which has allowed the 3 richest men in the world to have 3 times more wealth than the 48 poorest Nations on the planet combined, including Latin America and that in those poorest Nations over 30,000 children die of starvation and disease every day. Any of these richest men could solve this problem but in a capitalist system where Greed is a lifestyle, this is not going to happen. Also less than 2% of the people on earth have over 50% of the money on earth while over 50% of the people have less than 1% of the money. 2.5 Billion People on earth live on less than $2 a day.

I am not giving away state secrets in this report. Many people have figured out what is happening, including the world leaders. China, Russia and almost all countries are trying to sell off all U.S. assets but must do it slowly and in a clandestine manner to avoid causing their own economies to collapse prematurely. It has been estimated by top financial analysts that this slow sell off could be accomplished in less than 2 years which would be a disaster for the U.S. ( http://www.freemarketnews.com/WorldNews.asp?nid=49620
Chinese $ Sell-Off Rumors Triggers Concern, Rash of Conspiracy Reports )
The U.S. is well aware of this and is pushing to escalate their own agenda ahead of China, Russia, etc. China and Russia are both putting 100% effort into cyber warfare and military arms buildup but it is too little, too late and when all else is lost they may just be crazy enough to make one final effort and push the nuke buttons. WW3 is possible and could happen any day now. I can not imagine Russia and China being good losers, can you?

A famous U.S. president once said ''Nothing in politics happens by accident''. All the insane things you see the US administration and other countries doing is no accident but is part of the over all plan.

A few Examples: The U.S. did not just recently realize that all these imports from China are dangerous or violate U.S. laws. They have always known this, but by the recent recalls on thousands of products made in China, the U.S. is just letting them know that the U.S. is still in control and can shut Chinese business down at any time by simply enforcing U.S. laws pertaining to product safety, which have always been overlooked but still exist if needed. The recent meeting of Bush with the Dalai Lama is just another way of letting China know who is the boss. Bringing up the 90 year old genocide charges against Turkey was not necessary for any reason except to inflame tensions in the Middle East and bringing ex-president Bhutto back to Pakistan was another step in creating more tensions and problems in the region. The recent bombing of Syria by Israel was another. Threatening to divide Iraq into political sections is of course impossible but inflames tensions which works perfectly into U.S. plans. Leaking out the news about the Blackwater security company killing innocent Iraqi citizens is another example. Blackwater and other mercenaries have been murdering people around the world for years with immunity and without press coverage. The missile defense shield Bush is trying to install on the Russian border to supposedly protect Europe from attack by Iran is absolutely ridiculous and Putin knows it is just another attempt by the U.S. to assert its dominance over Russia. I could give you hundreds more examples but I hope you get the point already. You will probably see many more seemingly insane things happening all around the world, mostly instigated by the U.S., but remember, it is all political, well planned, and not accidental.

Looking at this realistically, the U.S. must execute their plan within less than one year and I would bet they will not cut it that close, probably within six months or less. This is how much time you have to either try to stop it or prepare yourself and your family for a global economic collapse and/or WW3. Personally, I believe preparation is the best choice as what has been planned by world superpowers competing for world supremacy for decades cannot be stopped.

The plan I have outlined was never perfect, has had many setbacks, many detours and many mistakes made in implementing, but overall it is still working and I see no hope that it will be abandoned. It is only a matter of a short time left for the final inevitable showdown by world superpowers and for the U.S. to retain its position as world superpower or become just another 3rd world country... Which would you bet on happening?

The Method to Bush’s Madness in Overthrowing Venezuela

Over 10 years experience investigating high level government corruption plus 6 years of research, careful study, investigations and analysis have led me to the conclusions which you are about to read in the following paragraphs.

The world is about to undergo some drastic changes due to a hand full of evil, greedy, corrupt people fighting for world domination. The majority of the people in the world do not have any idea what is happening but a few do know and are trying or hoping to stop them. The final outcome for better or worse will depend on how many people become aware of the developing disaster and who puts forth the most effort, the good guys or bad guys. It really is that simple.

Hijack 'suspects' alive and well

Just days before 911 if you did a search on any web search engine like Yahoo search and looked for ‘’Conspiracy theory’’, you would get about 36,000 results or web sites devoted to exposing some form of government conspiracy. If you do the same search now you will get around 16,000,000 results. There has to be a good reason for the increase and this US administration, the events of 911 and all events since then are the reason. The conspiracy theorist insist and have for the most part proven, thru scientific forensic analysis, eyewitness reports, whistle blowers, government documents, etc that 911 was an inside job, orchestrated by the present U.S. Administration as a pretext for starting the war in Iraq and Afghanistan which will ultimately lead to a regional Middle East war where all nations are involved. http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/?q=node/27683

Why am I talking about 911 in an article covering Venezuela? Because 911 was the beginning of the end for Venezuela and you need to know the background events before you can understand what this is all about and why Venezuela is the key to the biggest conspiracy in the history of the world. You also need to understand exactly how dangerous these people are and the lengths they will go to for the sake of preserving U.S. Interest and National security.

Bush threatens to attack Iran with nuclear weapons...All links to Bush threats )


Let us go back even further, to about 90 years ago when the U.S. Government first realized that oil was the most valuable resource on the planet. With the industrial age in full swing and everything running on or made from oil, the U.S. was searching worldwide for more sources. Plenty of oil had already been discovered in America, the Atlantic basin and close to America’s doorstep which America claimed and hoarded. It was in or around 1928 when Venezuela became the worlds leading oil supplier but the problem was that the British were in control of it. US President Woodrow Wilson managed to evict the British from Venezuela and put American oil companies in charge. This involved a US led coup and regime change which placed a vicious and corrupt dictator in charge that was fully backed by the US and agreed to throw the Brits out. US oil companies aided by corrupt government officials in Venezuela and the US have robbed the Venezuelan people of unimaginable amounts of money since those days thru the backing of every corrupt Venezuelan leader up to the election of President Hugo Chavez in 1998.

It all began with ”Wilsonian Idealism,” which was actually what we know today as the free trade agreement but in Wilson’s days it was called an ’’OPEN DOOR POLICY’’. The open door policy worked just as the free trade policy works now, which is to open the door when the US sees a possibility of acquiring assets valuable to the US economy and then closing the door once they are in US possession or control.

In every case, as has been observed in the US invasion of over 70 sovereign nations in the past 90 years, there are a few individuals who are willing to join the US in raping their own country and those individuals are the ones placed in political and military control. Then there are the majority of citizens who oppose a US takeover. Those are the ones called ``REVOLUTIONARIES`` ``INSURGENTS`` ``TERRORIST`` and unfortunately they are the ones who are captured, imprisoned for life, tortured, used for experimentation and eventually KILLED.

History has proven that when a 3rd world leader refuses to sign US free trade and other proposals, allowing the US to trade peanuts for oil and other valuable natural resources, the results are always coups, revolutions and a regime change backed by the US. US policy is to keep what it has, and take what it might need in the future, and if taking by force is necessary, so be it. This has been the policy and the pattern for over 90 years. http://www.democracynow.org/article.pl?sid=07/04/16/1338223

According to US banking officials, in the 6 months prior to Chavez winning the elections, which was expected by the opposition, more money from Venezuela’s corrupt elite was deposited in US banks than was left in the Venezuelan treasury. One study on the Venezuelan economy by a German university [reference?] concluded that if corruption were to stop in Venezuela and the opposition and US were to leave President Chavez to working on domestic issues, all of Venezuelans foreign debt could be paid off in one year and every family could be given a nice home, car and food which would last them a lifetime without working at all. This could be done with the sale of natural resources alone in only one year. Something worth fighting for, right?

NOTE: Due to US meddling in Venezuelan domestic policies it has taken President Chavez 8 years to pay off all of the Venezuelan debt, which was held by the International Monetary Fund, (WORLD BANK) which is actually the US Treasury. Venezuela is now free from the IMF and US controls and is helping many other Latin American countries pay off their debt and become free of Imperial capitalist control. This is of course being portrayed by US officials as destabilizing Latin America, radicalism, communism, un-democratic and is a serious threat to US interest and National Security. In reality, when anything is a threat to American interest it is helping the remainder of the world and the US is not going to allow that.

The US government did not stop with the regime change in Venezuela as is evident in documented cases of huge oil reserves being found in Africa also where the US caused more bloody revolutions, regime change, and genocide to secure the oil for America. Indonesia was not spared a large dose of American greed either. President Sukarno was ousted by a US/CIA led coup in 1965 which the American newspapers called “A STAGGERING MASS SLAUGHTER.”

(A CIA study of the events in Indonesia assessed that "In terms of the numbers killed the anti-PKI massacres in Indonesia rank as one of the worst mass murders of the 20Th century…")

It must also be noted that, in addition to the CIA, British and Australian intelligence were well aware of events as they transpired.

Time Magazine presented the following account on December 17, 1966 : "Communists, red sympathizers and their families are being massacred by the thousands. Backlands army units are reported to have executed thousands of communists after interrogation in remote jails. Armed with wide-bladed knives called parangs, Moslem bands crept at night into the homes of communists, killing entire families and burying their bodies in shallow graves."

"The murder campaign became so brazen in parts of rural East Java, that Moslem bands placed the heads of victims on poles and paraded them through villages. The killings have been on such a scale that the disposal of the corpses has created a serious sanitation problem in East Java and Northern Sumatra where the humid air bears the reek of decaying flesh. Travelers from those areas tell of small rivers and streams that have been literally clogged with bodies."

Keep in mind that the US now controls all the oil from those regions as well as Canada, Alaska, and Iraq, Saudi Arabia and various other Mid East countries.

Now it is time to secure oil from Iran, which holds the second largest supply in the Mid East. Iran also controls the ”Strait of Hormuz,” which is the vital shipping route for all oil from the Mid East to the world. There are strategic problems involved with attacking Iran which I have already outlined in my last article at http://www.venezuelanalysis.com/articles.php?artno=2083
Please read it for a full understanding of what is going to happen and why. Then continue with this article.

CONTINUED: Now that you know a few reasons why Venezuela is so important to the future of the U.S., lets take a closer look at why the U.S. is amassing incredible debt, (Over 54 trillion dollars, which can never be repaid http://www.cnsnews.com/ViewNation.asp?Page=/Nation/archive/200711/NAT20071108b.html
Federal Liabilities Now Equal $175,000 for Every American

), creating the North American Union (the US , Canada, and Mexico are to become one country soon http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=7306
Dollar Crisis: None dare call it 'conspiracy'
), complete with newly printed Amero Dollars, circumventing the U.S. constitution with new laws which have given President Bush dictatorial powers (which will be invoked when needed), ignoring the Geneva Convention Rules, pushing for amnesty for illegal aliens, creating a military police state, eliminating personal freedoms and privacy, ignoring Supreme Court decisions, invoking Executive Privilege when confronted, caught, or subpoenaed, building over 700 secret prison camps and completely destroying its image and sowing seeds of hatred worldwide. And the U.S. administration, led by George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, and an extremely dangerous group of others are not one bit concerned or worried. The big question everyone should be asking about all of this, as I have been doing for years, is WHY??? ( Remember when Vice President Cheney said “The U.S. deficit and world debt is unimportant.” Keep reading to understand WHY. http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/02/14/morton.deficit/index.html?iref=newssearch
Cheney says deficits don`t matter, CNN

There are a host of things which analysts from every sector agree on. The US is in Iraq and will be there for decades. The attack on Iran complete with regime change is absolutely necessary for the U.S. to remain world Superpower. This war with Iran can not and will not be won without the use of Nuclear Weapons. Using nukes on Iran will cause a regional war in the entire Middle East which could last for decades. This will cause the current U.S. economy to collapse, causing a violent civil war and revolution (people against people and against the government) within the US. The prison camps will be filled to capacity with the poor and middle class who disagree with the government and ironically those who fight the system of military police state will be forced to work in military complexes building more bombs and weapons for their elected leaders to use for their protection from the ‘’Terrorists’’ who were created by the US government.

The economic collapse will encapsulate the entire planet with the most severe consequences being in First World industrialized countries effectively paralyzing and preventing any country from even considering a military strike or confrontation with the U.S. Attacking the U.S. is a suicide mission and any country capable of inflicting major damage is smart enough to know they have no possibility of winning and will not attempt it. World War 3 is highly unlikely, (BUT NOT IMPOSSIBLE), and the US is betting on this. So what will be the outcome?

The U.S. today controls almost all the oil on the planet, who gets it, how much they get, how much they pay for it and what currency is used to buy it, with the exception of Iran and Venezuela. Creating the Middle East regional war will put the U.S. in control of that entire area, including Iran, but they must accept an economic collapse to do so. Of course all other countries will also be in a state of collapse, with civil wars, revolutions, etc., but since the US has planned this from the beginning decades ago, it will be the only nation able to cope with the circumstances because they know in advance what will happen and when.

With the coming of the global economic collapse most First World and some Third World countries will not only be involved with their own problems of civil wars and revolutions inside their countries, but most areas will erupt into regional war for control of needed resources, even Europe. The corrupt leaders of stronger countries will see this not only as a fight for survival but an opportunity to conquer neighboring lands as they had always wanted. How does the U.S. emerge from this global war as victorious and where does Venezuela fit into the Empire’s evil plans?

This entire scenario of war and economic collapse globally is designed to coincide exactly with the planned implementation of the “North American Union,”
( http://www.infowars.com/articles/nwo/nau_globalists_to_formally_propose_us_canada_mexico_merger.htm
Globalists To Formally Propose Merger Of U.S., Canada, Mexico North American Union), which is scheduled to take place in 2008. Most important is the timing as it is critical that this all happens before the 2008 Presidential elections in the U.S. With the new laws which President Bush has just put into effect it is possible for him to take complete control of the U.S. government, on a federal, state, and local level, invoke martial law, cancel elections and become the first U.S. dictator in the event of any national emergency. ( http://onlinejournal.com/artman/publish/article_2255.shtml
Will Bush cancel the 2008 election?)
If there is a funny part to all of this it has to be that the poor idiots who are just as corrupt as the present administration, who are running for President in 2008, are wasting their time…There will not be another election in the US. If anyone thinks the Bush-Cheney group have gone to this much trouble in the past 8 years just to let some new bunch of crooks come in and reverse all their hard work, they are living in a dream. (Special note: In the event that Bush, Cheney or any other public official leaves office for any reason, nothing will change and the wars will continue...It has been planned and nothing can stop it.)

Now, the world is at war, Bush is at the helm, what next? How does the U.S. survive? Implementing the North American Union strengthens US forces militarily and economically. The U.S. dollar has collapsed and all countries holding U.S. debt have lost trillions which reinforces the global collapse in Russia, China, etc. This also relieves the U.S. of all prior debt. This plan is just as effective as someone declaring bankruptcy to eliminate their debt. (Naturally, this U.S. bankruptcy will be blamed on “terrorists,” which will justify even more wars in the future.)

China has since the end of the cold war with Russia become the only real threat to US supremacy and the US has always known this. All along China has been quietly and covertly planning to first kill the U.S. economically by enticing American corporations to move their operations to China which the Chinese believed was hurting the American economy and this is true to an extent but was all part of the US plan. China was well aware of American Greed and played this to their advantage for over 40 years but U.S. politicians and think tanks were aware of China’s plan. Everyone has always wondered why US politicians did not stand up and make laws forbidding outsourcing most American jobs. Simply because this was not in US interest in the long run. US politicians made billions on this in the process also from payments by China lobby groups and Chinese companies. (It was a trap for china and has worked perfectly.) What the politicians did do is force China to buy trillions of dollars in U.S. treasuries and other now worthless securities to assure the Chinese got the contracts from the big corporations which they thought was slowly crippling the U.S. economy. Banks and financial institutions in England and the U.S. are collapsing as I am writing this and other countries will follow soon because the U.S. allowed the sale of Billions of dollars of securities which were thought by foreign banks to be AAA rated and government guaranteed, but now are worthless. Many more European banks are set to start failing within a few months who all are holding these worthless us investments. Brazil, India, and other countries have also enjoyed the benefits of our greedy outsourcing but that will soon come to an abrupt end and when the dust has settled from the imminent collapse everything will say made in the North American Union. All industry will return from overseas and the U.S. will have plenty of Mexicans willing to do the cheap labor just as the Chinese, Indians, Brazilians, and others are doing now. Imports will be almost non-existent and U.S. exports will once again support the country. (Is the Bush administration pushing for amnesty for illegal aliens starting to make sense now?) The US will soon need those cheap laborers!

NOTE: Illegal aliens and the poor and middle class Americans who are willing to work as slave labor for corporate America will be allowed a certain amount of freedom, but those who rebel and revolt or even dare to criticize the government will find new homes in one of the FEMA ran prison camps and will be working in the military industrial complexes building more weapons or forced to join the military and fight the U.S. wars.

The Amero dollar is born. The U.S. economy is virtually the only economy anywhere, ( just as it was after WW2 when the US Dollar became the world currency), and the US has sufficient oil for itself, which it has been controlling and hoarding for decades but wait, the rest of the world is begging for oil now and the U.S. only has enough for itself so what is the solution?

Venezuela has plenty of oil but Chavez is hoarding it or giving it away to enemies of the US. Chavez is now deemed a “Terrorist” and must be eliminated for the betterment of the New World Order. The fact that the U.S. now has more military stationed in Brazil, Colombia, Paraguay, and other Latin American countries surrounding Venezuela than all the Latin American countries federal agencies combined is no surprise. Curacao is now reported to be a major US military base with missiles pointed at Venezuela. There are also around 4,000 CIA operatives reportedly working inside Venezuela organizing the opposition to President Chavez and are working on causing Zulia state, the oil producing area, to secede from Venezuela, possibly to be taken over by Colombia or operate as an independent Nation [again?] with a leader who is controlled by the U.S.

When the U.S. has successfully eliminated all competition for world dominance and the world once again depends on the U.S. it will be very easy to garner support from all countries to secure the Venezuelan oil, eliminate a Terrorist Dictator and bring freedom and democracy to all of Latin America, by military intervention, bombing, genocide and whatever means are necessary to protect U.S. interest and National Security. At this point not only U.S. interest will be at stake, but world survival will be the question and with Venezuela holding the oil needed, what will be the consequences for Venezuela?

With America safely in control of all the oil they need but the Middle East oil not flowing due to the regional war there will be a world oil shortage. This is why Venezuela is the key to this entire plan for US world dominance. Once the U.S. is in control of the vast Venezuelan oil fields it will sell to the highest bidders but strictly on American terms. (At this point oil will be at least $300 a barrel, gasoline $25 a gallon, the oil companies, politicians, and world elite will be making all the money and the middle class will be eliminated or reduced to slavery for the rich ruling class. Does this sound like fun?)

(THE KEY: The U.S. dollar has collapsed and is worth only pennies on the newly formed AMERO dollar. Other countries’ currencies are totally worthless, so the only choice any country has is to exchange the old U.S. dollars at maybe 6 cents for the new AMERO dollars, which they will need to buy their oil and U.S. export goods.) Naturally all the countries the U.S. helps to reestablish their economy will have to agree to U.S. military presence, trade agreements, and to become U.S. allies in the never ending ”War On Terror.”

Now for the big question everyone is asking or should be asking. Is it possible to avoid the scenario which I have presented? To tell you the truth, I do not know, but I do know that President Chavez is trying to tell you all, and I mean Americans, Venezuelans, and people from all countries that only two choices exist. Stand and Fight the Empire now or kneel down, accept defeat and live your lives Terrorized by evil, corrupt, rich people forever, just as you have always done.

The fact that world leaders and their people are listening to Chavez is reason enough for the regime change in Venezuela whether by another coup or assassination, but the need for oil will cause a full military invasion.

If you still are having a problem understanding why Chavez is fighting so hard to bring socialism vs. capitalism to Venezuela and risking his own life to fight the Empire, please remember this: The U.S. system of government is based on capitalism which has allowed the 3 richest men in the world to have 3 times more wealth than the 48 poorest Nations on the planet combined, including Latin America and that in those poorest Nations over 30,000 children die of starvation and disease every day. Any of these richest men could solve this problem but in a capitalist system where Greed is a lifestyle, this is not going to happen. Also less than 2% of the people on earth have over 50% of the money on earth while over 50% of the people have less than 1% of the money. 2.5 Billion People on earth live on less than $2 a day.

I am not giving away state secrets in this report. Many people have figured out what is happening, including the world leaders. China, Russia and almost all countries are trying to sell off all U.S. assets but must do it slowly and in a clandestine manner to avoid causing their own economies to collapse prematurely. It has been estimated by top financial analysts that this slow sell off could be accomplished in less than 2 years which would be a disaster for the U.S. ( http://www.freemarketnews.com/WorldNews.asp?nid=49620
Chinese $ Sell-Off Rumors Triggers Concern, Rash of Conspiracy Reports )
The U.S. is well aware of this and is pushing to escalate their own agenda ahead of China, Russia, etc. China and Russia are both putting 100% effort into cyber warfare and military arms buildup but it is too little, too late and when all else is lost they may just be crazy enough to make one final effort and push the nuke buttons. WW3 is possible and could happen any day now. I can not imagine Russia and China being good losers, can you?

A famous U.S. president once said ''Nothing in politics happens by accident''. All the insane things you see the US administration and other countries doing is no accident but is part of the over all plan.

A few Examples: The U.S. did not just recently realize that all these imports from China are dangerous or violate U.S. laws. They have always known this, but by the recent recalls on thousands of products made in China, the U.S. is just letting them know that the U.S. is still in control and can shut Chinese business down at any time by simply enforcing U.S. laws pertaining to product safety, which have always been overlooked but still exist if needed. The recent meeting of Bush with the Dalai Lama is just another way of letting China know who is the boss. Bringing up the 90 year old genocide charges against Turkey was not necessary for any reason except to inflame tensions in the Middle East and bringing ex-president Bhutto back to Pakistan was another step in creating more tensions and problems in the region. The recent bombing of Syria by Israel was another. Threatening to divide Iraq into political sections is of course impossible but inflames tensions which works perfectly into U.S. plans. Leaking out the news about the Blackwater security company killing innocent Iraqi citizens is another example. Blackwater and other mercenaries have been murdering people around the world for years with immunity and without press coverage. The missile defense shield Bush is trying to install on the Russian border to supposedly protect Europe from attack by Iran is absolutely ridiculous and Putin knows it is just another attempt by the U.S. to assert its dominance over Russia. I could give you hundreds more examples but I hope you get the point already. You will probably see many more seemingly insane things happening all around the world, mostly instigated by the U.S., but remember, it is all political, well planned, and not accidental.

Looking at this realistically, the U.S. must execute their plan within less than one year and I would bet they will not cut it that close, probably within six months or less. This is how much time you have to either try to stop it or prepare yourself and your family for a global economic collapse and/or WW3. Personally, I believe preparation is the best choice as what has been planned by world superpowers competing for world supremacy for decades cannot be stopped.

The plan I have outlined was never perfect, has had many setbacks, many detours and many mistakes made in implementing, but overall it is still working and I see no hope that it will be abandoned. It is only a matter of a short time left for the final inevitable showdown by world superpowers and for the U.S. to retain its position as world superpower or become just another 3rd world country... Which would you bet on happening?

Is this universe, all the creation,
only a thought, just a thought,
an idea that existed in time before time..

one that fit itself well within a living seed..
just as perfectly as it lives to make the limitless unknown


how does it manage to be both at the same time?
so small that it becomes difficult to sight it..
and so limitless that none can see it in full view..

only a happy, content heart can see it becoming
in its own becoming..like a flower carrying seeds
that give birth to new flowers,
in the never ending journey of life..

which is the flower and which one is the seed?
is all so clear for each to know and BE
thus flowers have been blooming naturally for million years and more,
without needing to remember to know or BE

then is happiness a pre-condition of life?
are we born to be happy?
to be fully blissful & content,
exploring in the journey
woven around time??

This universe is a great living mystery..
like as if a journey never begins when one puts the first step towards life..
its not what one thinks, or what one doesn't think it to be..
its not what's agreeable and what's disagreeable to a mind..
its not what one allows..and/or disallows..

summoning water from its breasts,
a well quenches the thirst of life..
what does a well do when it runs dry?
when the monsoon is far, far away,
does life waits for such a well?


is the answer in consciousness having it naturally,
like the way trees have fruits on it..
or in its awakening...

every becoming, written poem or a song has its destined end..
a one way road that knows no other end..
one that cant be changed any one bit..

for its just not the words but its a purpose that fuels every poem,
a purpose that makes itself known..
even before the poem conceived in poets heart..
for whats comes to life is born with the wisdom
& light to be the form that its known as..


then there are poems...
that wish to come to be known..in the same bliss,
wisdom, beauty, & love
as any divinely creation..

a flowering seed of a happy heart..
that knows no bounds or limits..
wholesomely fulfilled in its existence..


Arctic Earthquakes Increasing in Number and Strength

Arctic Earthquakes Increasing in Number and Strength

May 5th, 2008

We have just received word that the Arctic Circle suffered two Magnitude 4+ earthquakes in one day. This is very unusual, as this area hardly sees any seismic action. These two quakes, plus another off the Oregon coast, impressed the writer of this article, Michael Mandeville, as the beginning of a “continental class tectonic event,” to quote him.

Cayce Prophecies Alert: Upheavals In The Arctic

by Michael MandevilleSeismic Action in the Arctic

This is one of the more important Earth Changes advisories.

Go see the current quakes at http://www.iris.edu/seismon/, click on the high arctic zone to get just North America

Two Class 4 quakes have just struck high in the Arctic at two widely separated
points. I have been watching the Arctic for some eight years. This is the
first time we have had two quakes over 4.0. You almost never even get one such quake.

To add to the interest, a Class 4 quake also struck at virtually the same time
off the coast of Oregon. Look at the triangulation on the map, it is exquisite.
I am calling this a continental class tectonic event, I don’t think these are
random discrete events. I believe that they relate directly to the past three
weeks of shape-shifting long waveforms which have been traveling through North America. It will make some time to mull this one over…

Could this be the beginnings of Edgar Cayce’s polar shifts? If it is, do not fear, because the longer that these things take, the more likely that humanity will be to survive them.


Exposed: the great GM crops myth

Published on Sunday, May 04, 2008.

Source: The Independent

Genetic modification actually cuts the productivity of crops, an authoritative new study shows, undermining repeated claims that a switch to the controversial technology is needed to solve the growing world food crisis.

The study – carried out over the past three years at the University of Kansas in the US grain belt – has found that GM soya produces about 10 per cent less food than its conventional equivalent, contradicting assertions by advocates of the technology that it increases yields.

Professor Barney Gordon, of the university's department of agronomy, said he started the research – reported in the journal Better Crops – because many farmers who had changed over to the GM crop had "noticed that yields are not as high as expected even under optimal conditions". He added: "People were asking the question 'how come I don't get as high a yield as I used to?'"

He grew a Monsanto GM soybean and an almost identical conventional variety in the same field. The modified crop produced only 70 bushels of grain per acre, compared with 77 bushels from the non-GM one.

The GM crop – engineered to resist Monsanto's own weedkiller, Roundup – recovered only when he added extra manganese, leading to suggestions that the modification hindered the crop's take-up of the essential element from the soil. Even with the addition it brought the GM soya's yield to equal that of the conventional one, rather than surpassing it.

The new study confirms earlier research at the University of Nebraska, which found that another Monsanto GM soya produced 6 per cent less than its closest conventional relative, and 11 per cent less than the best non-GM soya available.

The Nebraska study suggested that two factors are at work. First, it takes time to modify a plant and, while this is being done, better conventional ones are being developed. This is acknowledged even by the fervently pro-GM US Department of Agriculture, which has admitted that the time lag could lead to a "decrease" in yields.

But the fact that GM crops did worse than their near-identical non-GM counterparts suggest that a second factor is also at work, and that the very process of modification depresses productivity. The new Kansas study both confirms this and suggests how it is happening.

A similar situation seems to have happened with GM cotton in the US, where the total US crop declined even as GM technology took over. (See graphic above.)

Monsanto said yesterday that it was surprised by the extent of the decline found by the Kansas study, but not by the fact that the yields had dropped. It said that the soya had not been engineered to increase yields, and that it was now developing one that would.

Critics doubt whether the company will achieve this, saying that it requires more complex modification. And Lester Brown, president of the Earth Policy Institute in Washington – and who was one of the first to predict the current food crisis – said that the physiology of plants was now reaching the limits of the productivity that could be achieved.

A former champion crop grower himself, he drew the comparison with human runners. Since Roger Bannister ran the first four-minute mile more than 50 years ago, the best time has improved only modestly . "Despite all the advances in training, no one contemplates a three-minute mile."

Andrew Fox

Last week the biggest study of its kind ever conducted - the International Assessment of Agricultural Science and Technology for Development - concluded that GM was not the answer to world hunger


Professor Bob Watson, the director of the study and chief scientist at the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, when asked if GM could solve world hunger, said: "The simple answer is no."

food is medicine.

simple.

its primary purpose(s) is/are to ideally enhance, and at least preserve our physical->mental->spiritual well being.

after taking x billion years to arrive at her current state, man seeks to circumvent nature, by removing the key ingredients that preserve sound biological functioning. ie; the ability to germinate/recreate, which is at the root of all life, inhalation/intake, exhalation/excretion processes.

puhlease!

other realities provide monsanto et al current agenda for food production. ie: the rest of the world is waking up, no longer in slumber. the need to control their basic needs is at the root of their 'cause'

There will always be a trade off between a good trait that reduces the cost of production and or chemical input, and ultimate yield. But in the presence of that disease on a conventional variety, the yield would be significantly reduced to below the cost of production.
Wageningen University in the Netherlands has isolated a gene in rice that allows the plant to continue to grow when under drought stress. Not only that, but these plants also grew and prospered in saline conditions. In a world that is undergoing climatic shift, and the resulting pressure on fresh water, these are desirable traits to help feed the worlds increasing population.
That is what GM crops can do, not “just” increase yield

David Rockefeller (CFR founder), page 405 of his 2002 book Memoirs: "Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as 'internationalists' and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure - one world, if you will. If that is the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it." ISBN-13: 978-0812969733

This article is so dumb!

Of course a plant designed to resist a herbicide will produce less under the same conditions!

Otherwise it is manipulating the laws of physics!

The plant is having to produce extra proteins to deal with the Chemical, thus it has less enery for growth.

I had always suspected that the "real" advantage of GM crops was that the growers would always have to go back to the "rights owner" e.g. Monsanto, for more seed and supplies for each new crop. If this were true could there be some "connection" between the US government support of GM development, and lobbyists for Monsanto and "friends"?
Am I being too cynical, or forgetting any other beneficiaries?






Hey two words SONIC BLOOM. Dan Carlson created it years ago and there are now hundreds of world records being broken with NON-GMO plants. Its organic and it works. Try 15 ft tall corn with 3-5 ears per stalk (most over 12" long) and nutritious to boot. I agree there should be arrests made of these MONSATAN people. Arrests and trials

It has been pointed out that the aim of the genetic modification in this case was not to increase yields. But this prompts the question: Why not? That's the most obvious thing to increase for a positive economic impact. I think the answer is that Monsanto were not able to achieve this so far and won't necessarily do so in the future.

This chapter from an excellent book called Natural Capitalism will put you in a good mindset to see the massive flaws in genetic engineering of crops.

In the U.S.A, the GM producer lobbied very strongly to prevent mention on food content labels. They won and effectively took over the entire food production chain, without too much notice, beyond their incessant P.R. declaration about how "We're feeding the world!"

Most Americans don't know they're on a GM diet now every day. Not just fruit and vegetables... poultry and cattle are fattened on GM sugar corn and other grains. You can not avoid eating GM anywhere in the States now unless you do considerable research and make an enormous effort to buy normal unadulterated food.

The GM producer now wants the entire European market, but fortunately we do have the European Union. Monsanto, in tandem with American trade origansations, fight hard and dirty to cram it down our throats. Especially to prevent us, European consumers, the right to be informed on a package label. Or require further study of long range effects.

This by the same company which brought the world Agent Orange...

In these people's quest for money and power they're f%^$ing up the whole world and the balance of nature that has slowly evolved to perfection over millions of years. Yeah, you're smarter than God. Idiots. These educated fools, with their big degrees and their learned intelligence are an absolute danger to mankind. And it's a shame they didn't learn squat about ethics or humanity.
You dummies missed the point of it all.
It's too bad we can't genetically modify stupid people. If we could just cross half these people with a rock we'd be doing a LOT better. You GM jenioushes should try to figure that one out instead.

When the bees are gone these dummies might just get a clue.

Yes, I agree to this fully. Thank God now we have found GM is bad The Hibrid and GM produced seeds cant be sown again, and the Farmers are made slaves of the Multi nationals who produce Cross bred seeds and saplings.
The real Prosperity & Sufficency comes from the law of God
from the Bible.
GEN 1:11 Then God said, "Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds." And it was so. 12 The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.

GE 1:29 Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food.

Note the word "Seed" how many times it is repeated. Here seed means " Natural Reproduction System" Let us come back to our senses. In God's Economy Seeds are free with the fruit

"Early in 1998, with permission from the Rowett Research Institute, Árpád Pusztai agreed to be interviewed about his research for a television news program. In the short clip aired on the program he said that his findings led him to believe that more research was needed on the health impacts of foods from genetically modified crops and that he would be reluctant to eat GM foods until more was known. Within days, Pusztai was suspended from his job and forbidden to speak about his work to anyone in the press. A few months later he was fired, and not long after his wife and co-researcher was also forced out of her senior position at the research institute. The other study collaborator, Dr. Stanley W. B. Ewen, retained his position at the University of Aberdeen until 2001, when he retired. In Andrew Rowell’s book Don’t Worry (It’s Safe to Eat) Ewen says that the climate in his department became cool after publication of the study results and influenced his choice to retire early."

I can't wait to have Prof. Pusztai's research corroborated by some courageous researcher, as well. Monsanto has lied and lied and lied.

This article appeared the same day, who is writing all the propaganda and paying for it?

Why would politicians and giant corporations spend so much money on propaganda in less it was to control the world's food Supply and that is exactly what this is about an attempt to control production of food.

You must buy the seed from them and they will control every aspect of food growth and production.

Very interesting story. Nice to see the biotech industry propaganda exposed. Keith says it's "not a secret" "that many first generation GM crops have reduced yields." On the contrary, the biotech companies and their front groups have invested millions to promote the "increased yield" myth and it's been almost universally accepted. For one of Dr. Gordon's papers, see: http://www.ppi-ppic.org/ppiweb/bcrops.nsf/$webindex/70ABDB50A75463F085257394001B157F/$file/07-4p12.pdf.
Another biotech industry myth (i.e. lie) that needs exposing relates to pesticide use. 81% of global GM crop area is planted to pesticide-promoting herbicide-tolerant crops, chiefly the Roundup Ready crops that Dr. Gordon studied. This has led to an INCREASE in herbicide use. See http://www.centerforfoodsafety.org/WhoBenefitsPR2_13_08.cfm which provides a link to a report that proves this, based on USDA data.

From Saturday's Globe and Mail

Jerusalem — The building stands at the centre of the city, its curved façade looming like a question mark. Older than Israel itself, and with a history nearly as tormented and complicated, the Sansur Building will witness the celebrations unfolding on the adjacent Zion Square this week as the Jewish state celebrates its 60th anniversary.

But if the grimy pedestrian shopping plaza that is Zion Square – at the heart of the newer, western half of this ancient city – is synonymous with Israel, the three-storey Sansur is a reminder of why Palestinians refer to Israel's birth on May 15, 1948, as the naqba, the catastrophe. And of why the fighting for this land has never stopped since that day.

A small plaque on the outer wall tells passersby that the three-storey edifice with the neoclassical touches was erected by the Sansur Brothers of Bethlehem in 1929. Like much of the history here, that's a matter of opinion. The building's real story mirrors that of a country still wrestling with both its past and its modern identity. The tales of those who built it, those who lived and worked in it and even those who were merely passing by all follow the tragic, violent course that this country and its peoples have taken.

Lives ordinary and extraordinary – Arab and Jew, Holocaust survivors and suicide bombers – have been colliding here since the moment the Jewish state was born. They crashed, clashed and left each other changed – and almost always for the worse. Together, their stories pose an existential question that Israel, on the eve of its 60th birthday, has yet to answer.

The pioneer

Sixty years ago, a young woman named Batya Bornstein was among the hundreds of revellers who surged onto Zion Square to celebrate Israel's declaration of independence. The 24-year-old watched gleefully as dozens of youths danced the hora and sang as they spun around a bonfire in the middle of the plaza.

Even then, tensions were high. War was clearly on the horizon and in a sense already under way. Ben Yehuda Street, which meets Jaffa Road at Zion Square, still bore the scars of a triple car-bomb attack carried out by Arab fighters just three months earlier, killing 52 Jewish civilians.

Ms. Bornstein had served as a medic in the Haganah militia that was one of four main Jewish paramilitary organizations battling Arab fighters in the run-up to Independence Day. All four would soon be folded into the Israel Defence Forces to combat the combined armies of Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon and Iraq, which invaded immediately after the declaration of independence.

The war was to last a year, and Israel not only survived, but expanded its territory significantly beyond what it had been allotted under the United Nations plan for the partition of Palestine into Arab and Jewish halves.

Ms. Bornstein had arrived in what was then the British mandate of Palestine in 1934, after her father decided that the rising anti-Semitism in Eastern Europe – and neighbouring Germany – meant that their native Poland was no longer a safe place to raise a family.

“We left Lvov on a stormy day, it was December, and when we came to Israel it was still December, but the sun was shining. I remember seeing a lot of oranges,” the frail but sharp-minded 83-year-old says, recalling the day she and her family landed in Haifa.

Today, she lives in a photograph-cluttered apartment in Katamon, an Arab neighbourhood that was seized by Israel – and emptied of its former inhabitants – during the fighting of 1948-49.

For Ms. Bornstein's family, Israel provided a refuge from the horrors that were unfolding in Europe. Her beloved grandmother and most of her extended family disappeared into the Nazi concentration camp of Belzec in eastern Poland. Her husband, Shmuel, whom she married in 1951, emerged from years of internment in both Belzec and Bergen-Belsen, racked with diphtheria, but alive.

Like many Holocaust survivors, he went straight from Europe's war to Palestine's. Mr. Bornstein served in the Haganah unit that fought first in the Galilee and then later in the battle for the southern port of Eilat that was the last major combat of the war.

Court Approves Anti-Israel Independence Day Ceremony


by Hillel Fendel
Published: 05/01/08, 7:03 PM

(IsraelNN.com) A court in Nazareth has approved a ceremony to be held this coming Independence Day that will commemorate the "catastrophic" nature of the day for Israel's Arabs.

The Nazareth District Court has allowed the radical anti-Israel Islamic Movement to conduct a Naqba (Catastrophe) ceremony on Israel's Independence Day, next Thursday. Many Arabs believe Independence Day actually marks their own Naqba, and commemorate it as such.

The ruling was handed down today (Thursday) after the authorities of the Arab town of Kfar Kana refused to allow the ceremony, claiming it was political in nature. The court rejected this claim, and the anti-Israel ceremony will be held on Independence Day in the Kfar Kana stadium.

MKs Saar, Orlev, Livnat
"Such a decision on the day we remember the Holocaust," said MK Gideon Saar (Likud), "is shameful, and it shows total Zionism and moral bankruptcy."

MK Zevulun Orlev, chairman of the National Religious Party, agreed, saying, "The court's decision makes a mockery of the Declaration of Independence, and of Israel as a Jewish and democratic state."

Likud MK Limor Livnat, a former Minister of Education, demands that the government file a request for an appeal of the court ruling. "The brain refuses to accept that on Holocaust Day, a court in Israel could come to such an incredible ruling," she said. "Now, more than ever, we must remember that the State of Israel is primarily the State of the Jews."

Saar added, "The Naqba ceremony will most definitely be a stage for incitement against Israel. It shows that our national authorities have no national respect or self-respect."

Gaza's economic growth has halted, World Bank says

· Israeli blockade strangling territory, report warns
· Olmert spokesman denies expansion of settlements

This article appeared in the Guardian on Monday April 28 2008 on p16 of the International section. It was last updated at 00:00 on April 28 2008.

Gaza's economic growth has ground to a halt and will continue to shrink unless Israel lifts its economic blockade on the beleaguered Palestinian territory, a new World Bank report says. After three years of warning that Palestinian businesses were on the brink of collapse, the World Bank yesterday reported that Gaza's economy had recorded zero growth in 2007.

The report comes 10 months after Israel imposed tough economic sanctions to break Hamas's control of Gaza, after the Islamist militants ousted their political rivals, Fatah, in bloody clashes last year.

It also warns that the West Bank, which is administered by the US-backed Palestinian Authority, will struggle to grow, despite the international community's pledge to inject $7.7bn (£3.9bn), over the next three years to bolster the economy.

Inspired by US-brokered peace talks at Annapolis last year, the international community gave generously, in the belief that Israel would halt further construction in the 149 Jewish settlements and approximately 110 outposts, and ease the barriers, checkpoints, permits and other military decrees that exclude Palestinians from about 1,000 miles of roads and much of the West Bank.

But instead, movement restrictions remain the biggest obstacle to growth in the West Bank, the World Bank says. "Since Annapolis, settlement activity has continued largely unabated and, in the case of the Jerusalem area, has even accelerated. Of the 885 settlement housing units tendered in 2007, 747 were issued in the five weeks after Annapolis," the report says.

The World Bank says Israel has legitimate security concerns, but its control of movement in the West Bank is not solely to protect settlers, but also to help expand settlements. "Some 38% of the West Bank has been confiscated for current or future settlements and outposts and their growth, as well as closed military areas."

Israel claims it is reining in settlement growth. "There's no policy to expand settlements," said Mark Regev, spokesman for the prime minister, Ehud Olmert. "We are building inside existing settlements."

"We understand the importance of movement and access for the Palestinians and support those goals, but we can't ignore serious threats to the security of Israeli citizens. There are hard-core terrorist cells, Hamas, Islamic Jihad and renegade Fatah members, in the West Bank."

The World Bank modelling suggests that the Palestinian economy as a whole could achieve double-digit growth, but that given the stalemate in peace negotiations, is more likely to grow by just 3% in 2008. Even then individual incomes are likely to fall, as population growth is expected to outstrip economic activity.

At the weekend, the prospect of an economic revival in the West Bank continued to wither, with the Palestinian president, Mahmoud Abbas, saying he had walked away from a meeting with President George Bush "almost empty handed".

The event, which was held in Europe for the sixth consecutive year, was organized by the Palestinian Committee in Europe and al-Awda, The Palestine Right to Return Coalition.

"Your homes await you," Head of the Islamic Movement's Northern Branch in Israel, Sheikh Raed Salah, told participants during the rally. "The mosques and churches, hyssop and peppermint herbs await you as well. They symbolize the roots and identity, the history and culture, they are our future."

Salah added: "We have come to deliver a message of yearning and love from each grain of sand in the Galilee and the Negev, the Triangle and the Coastal areas, and Jerusalem. This grain of sand tells you – don't leave me, I expect to see you very soon at the dawn of the refugees' return."

Salah also attended a prayer at one of Denmark's biggest mosques, and told worshippers: "The city of Jerusalem is calling you to salvage it from the Judaization it is undergoing and from what the Israeli government is doing."

From Informed Consent blog

May 8, Israeli Independence Day, will mark the 60th anniversary of the founding of the State of Israel, an occasion to be marked in Israel and Jewish communities around the world with celebration. As always, Independence Day is preceded by Holocaust Remembrance Day (May 2) and Yom ha-Zikaron (Memorial Day, on May 7, in memory of those fallen for the state.

May 15 will mark the 60th anniversary of the Naqba (catastrophe), as Palestinians call the founding of Israel and their consequent defeat, expulsion, and exile. Palestinian and other communities will mark the day with mourning, protest, and anger.

The founding of Israel is often justified, at least partly, as reparation for the genocide of European Jews by the German Nazi regime. For many Jews, the creation of this state redeems, if anything can (and in my view it can't) not only that ultimate atrocity, but also the entire history of Jewish suffering and persecution, seen as a prelude to national rebirth.

Of course the Nazi genocide and all the rest of the history of persecution of the Jews does not and cannot provide any moral justification for punishing Palestinian Arabs. (When I mentioned this in a previous post, a commenter listed various incidents in history where Jews have suffered in Muslim countries. Of course such incidents occurred. But Palestinians are no more guilty of the 1840 blood libel of Damascus, not to mention various outbreaks in 12th and 11th century Cordoba and Granada, than they are of the Holocaust. Palestinian Arabs began to attack Jews only after the Zionist movement began its efforts to establish a Jewish state in Palestine.)

Nonetheless, a few anti-Zionists (notably President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran) have resorted to denial of the historical fact of the Holocaust in order to undermine one of the justifications for the Jewish state. Some non-Jews may not understand how painful, threatening, and offensive this denial of history is. It is like denial of our our own experience, which validates our very existence.

I learned of the Holocaust as a child. When I was 12 or 13, a friend's father, all of whose family had been killed, told us sitting on his lawn one night what it felt like to be whipped at Auschwitz. In the Jewish Day School I attended, we saw Nazi documentary footage of the Warsaw Ghetto, including piles of starving bodies. When my grandfather died, my great aunt found letters in Yiddish in the basement informing his father (after whom I am named) of the death of his sisters, who had stayed behind in Balti, Bessarabia. (This area was in Russia when my great-grandfather left it around 1900. It became part of Romania after World War I and the Russian Revolution, and was joined to the USSR as the Bessarabian Soviet Socialist Republic after World War II. Today it is part of the Republic of Moldova. The violent peregrination of ethno-national borders in Eastern-Central Europe is not as irrelevant to this story as may first appear -- the same process is now going on in many other places, Israel-Palestine among them.)

I also learned about Israel and Zionism as a child. I learned that the Jewish settlers in Palestine scrupulously respected the rights of the few Arabs who lived in the mostly abandoned country, buying whatever land they obtained for a fair market price. I learned that the corrupt shaikhs and bureaucrats stirred up the common people against the Jews because they feared the ideology of equality, democracy, and socialism that they were bringing. I learned that the international community recognized the right of Jews to a homeland in establishing the British Mandate over Palestine after the defeat of the Ottomans, but that anti-Semitic British officials favored the Arabs, even while the Jews of Europe were being massacred by Hitler. I learned that in 1948, after the establishment of the State of Israel by the United Nations, and the declaration of Independence by the Yishuv (the political organization of the Jewish settlers in Palestine) the new Israeli government urged all Arabs to remain in their homes, where they would be protected as equal citizens of the State of Israel, but that the reactionary Arab regimes, which were trying to destroy the new state, broadcast repeated calls to the Arabs of Palestine to flee until the Jews were destroyed, and that most of the Arabs carried out this instruction, showing their bad intentions. The Jewish state miraculously survived and then rescued the Jews of the entire Arab and Muslim world from persecution. It brought these communities to Israel, while the Arabs and their supporters refused to accept this exchange of populations. Instead they preferred to use the Palestinian refugees as political tools.

In other words, I learned to deny the Naqba. My subsequent reading and experience have led me to conclude that the account I learned of the founding of Israel, is not much closer to the truth than the claim that the deaths at Auschwitz were mostly due to disease and war conditions. Of course some people in concentration camps did die of disease and war conditions.
Arab leaders certainly exploited the Palestinians for political gain. But the denial of the Naqba that I learned is, I imagine, as painful, threatening, and offensive to Palestinians as denial of the Holocaust is to Jews.

(I am not equating the Holocaust and the Naqba. Murdering an entire population is worse than expelling most of a population from their homes, treating those who remain as second-class citizens, occupying more of their land, and repressing them through military reprisals, mass detentions, blockades, and targeted killings. Racist genocide is worse than nationalist ethnic cleansing. But no action can be justified on the grounds that even worse actions are possible).

This is not an issue for historians. It is one of the core issues blocking a peace agreement between Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organization. It is the issue that prevents Hamas from offering to recognize Israel. It is the issue that makes Israel resist any recognition, however symbolic, of the right of return of Palestinian refugees. Dr. Mahmoud al-Zahar, a founder of Hamas, referred to this dispute in his recent Op-Ed in the Washington Post. After recounting the killing of his two sons and his son-in-law, he signaled his recognition of the Holocaust by comparing the resistance of Gazans to that of the Warsaw Ghetto. But he added:

Our movement fights on because we cannot allow the foundational crime at the core of the Jewish state -- the violent expulsion from our lands and villages that made us refugees -- to slip out of world consciousness, forgotten or negotiated away.
Naqba denial is as non-negotiable to Palestinians as Holocaust denial is to Jews.

[But Hamas is a terrorist organization! I can't spend time here exploring all the hypocrisies surrounding the word "terrorist." Suffice it to say that I never heard an American official apply it to the Afghan mujahidin in the 1980s, though their missiles caused far more civilian deaths in Kabul than missiles from Gaza or South Lebanon have in Israel. I am totally opposed to killing civilians for political purposes, either intentionally or because the attacker cannot be bothered to avoid it. But I am also against using that principled opposition to evade accountability for other kinds of crimes.]

We need a common history so that we can have a common future. Here's my outline:

Zionism arose as Jewish nationalism in Central and Eastern Europe in the nineteenth century as ethno-nationalism of other groups threatened the Jews of the Hapsburg and Russian empires. The European struggles over creating nations and states in that region resulted in both World Wars, the Holocaust, the ethnic cleansing of Germans from much of Eastern Europe, the ethnic cleansing of much of Yugoslavia, and mass migrations of many groups to create the more homogeneous states that exist there today. Ideologically, Zionism was one of several alternatives open to the Jews of Europe. The Dreyfus Affair convinced Theodor Herzl (from the Hungarian part of Austria-Hungary) that liberal integration would fail. Some turned to nationalism, and others to socialism. The largest number, including my ancestors, found an apolitical solution in emigration to the U.S. or elsewhere.

Simultaneously, the Ottoman Empire, like its European counterparts, was becoming weakened by international competition and internal nationalist movements. The weakening of the Ottomans opened the possibility for European Jews to settle in Palestine as part of a nationalist movement rather than, as previously, as religious pilgrims. To an extent that those unfamiliar with Jewish texts might not appreciate, the "Land of Israel" occupied and occupies a central place in the Jewish imagination. Three times a day religious Jews prayed for God to return them to the land from which they had been exiled, and in times of national catastrophe, chiliastic or messianic movements had repeatedly formed around a return to the land. Zionism provided a secular national transformation of this cultural pattern, and therefore melded Jewish nationalism (a new phenomenon) with the messianic passion of the return.

Palestinian Arabs (and most of the rest of the world) were not aware of these currents, nor, quite understandably, did they conclude that because of these beliefs they should allow a group of foreigners to form a state on their land. Britain could call on related Biblical narratives in sympathy with the plan for a Jewish National Home in Palestine, though strategic objectives (desire for a friendly population near the Suez Canal) certainly played a role.

Jews were persecuted, even massacred, in much of Europe, but they largely shared the European assumption that Western colonialism represented progress, and that the decision by the League of Nations to award a Mandate over Palestine to Britain, including the creation of a Jewish National Home, was a legitimate and binding decision in international law. In Palestine as elsewhere the subjects of colonial rule had a different perspective.

The creation of Israel was part of the global redrawing of borders, forced migrations, ethnic cleansing, imperial breakdown, and genocide that overwhelmed much of the world during and after World War II. As the Jewish state was established in Palestine, resulting in war and expulsion of hundreds of thousands of Arabs, a Muslim state, Pakistan, was carved out of India, leading to far bloodier wars and many more deaths. Germans were expelled from Czechoslovakia, Poland, and elsewhere, by virtue of their affiliation to the former occupier. Serbs, Croats, Albanians and others in and around Yugoslavia started the process of ethnic cleansing that continues today. The USSR seized territory from all the states to its west, with huge concomitant population transfers. These are just a few random examples. The formation of ethno-nationalist states through violence and population transfer was the rule rather than the exception -- which did not make it any more legitimate or tolerable for its victims.

In this general violent upheaval of nationalism, Jewish survivors were not welcome in their former homes and were even massacred at times on their return. The victorious countries of World War II, including the US, still emerging from both Depression and wartime deprivation, were not willing to open their borders to millions of refugees. As after other historical incidents of disaster (the various Jewish Naqbas) a movement (with messianic components such as the teachings of Rav Kook) arose around the return to the land, this time taking the form of nationalism. What happened in Palestine was nothing unusual -- it was happening all over the world. National movements recruited desperate, idealistic, devoted, cruel, thoughtful, and thoughtless people in service of creating states on territories by excluding others. After all they had been through, the Jews would not rely on anyone else for their security, and if their desperate and heroic act of national revival created other victims, it was up to the rest of the world to compensate them.

Palestinians, Arabs, Muslims, and others in the colonial world narrated these events as part of a different story. The European powers that won the war were also the major colonial powers and used their domination of the United Nations and the world scene to create a state in Palestine without consulting its inhabitants, who naturally resisted. Some saw this as part of an ongoing struggle of Muslims against their enemies, who aimed to destroy them.

Perhaps if the Arab states, still emerging from colonial domination themselves, had been stronger and had more resources, they could have reached an agreement that would include absorption of the Palestinian refugees, as Germany accepted the repatriated Germans or India and Pakistan accepted each others' refugees. But these countries were insecure and poor themselves. Their populations, and most of all, the Palestinians themselves would not accept it. Nor was there any reason that they should. No people is obliged to surrender its sovereignty and security to redress wrongs committed by others. Every person has the same individual human rights that the world affirmed (if hypocritically) largely in response to the Holocaust itself. Among these basic rights, included in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (passed by the UN General Assembly on December 10, 1948) is the "right to leave any country, including his own, and to return to his country." There is no exception for Palestinian refugees. But it wasn't enforced for Jews or many others. Why for them? But this is not a question likely to interest Palestinians expelled from their homes and still living under occupation or as refugees 60 years later.

That was the "foundational crime" of which Dr. al-Zahar wrote. I propose a reframing: the Jews and the Palestinians are joint victims of the Holocaust and the Naqba, of the history of nationalism, racism, and colonialism, from which we are all suffering. They should jointly demand of the rest of the world assistance and support in finding a way out of this tragedy.

Therefore: no to Holocaust denial, no to Naqba denial. There are still plenty of difficult issues to resolve. But let's start with the tragic truth.

Update: From the Guardian:

We're not celebrating Israel's anniversary

In May, Jewish organisations will be celebrating the 60th anniversary of the founding of the state of Israel. This is understandable in the context of centuries of persecution culminating in the Holocaust. Nevertheless, we are Jews who will not be celebrating. Surely it is now time to acknowledge the narrative of the other, the price paid by another people for European anti-semitism and Hitler's genocidal policies. As Edward Said emphasised, what the Holocaust is to the Jews, the Naqba is to the Palestinians.

In April 1948, the same month as the infamous massacre at Deir Yassin and the mortar attack on Palestinian civilians in Haifa's market square, Plan Dalet was put into operation. This authorised the destruction of Palestinian villages and the expulsion of the indigenous population outside the borders of the state. We will not be celebrating.

In July 1948, 70,000 Palestinians were driven from their homes in Lydda and Ramleh in the heat of the summer with no food or water. Hundreds died. It was known as the Death March. We will not be celebrating.

In all, 750,000 Palestinians became refugees. Some 400 villages were wiped off the map. That did not end the ethnic cleansing. Thousands of Palestinians (Israeli citizens) were expelled from the Galilee in 1956. Many thousands more when Israel occupied the West Bank and Gaza. Under international law and sanctioned by UN resolution 194, refugees from war have a right to return or compensation. Israel has never accepted that right. We will not be celebrating.

We cannot celebrate the birthday of a state founded on terrorism, massacres and the dispossession of another people from their land. We cannot celebrate the birthday of a state that even now engages in ethnic cleansing, that violates international law, that is inflicting a monstrous collective punishment on the civilian population of Gaza and that continues to deny to Palestinians their human rights and national aspirations.

We will celebrate when Arab and Jew live as equals in a peaceful Middle East.

ACTIVISM ALERT: Feith to do ME forum luncheon

Forthcoming Events

The Middle East Forum sponsors events in Philadelphia, New York City, Boston and Cleveland. Each of these provides a non-partisan platform to consider the controversial issues of a volatile region from the perspective of a leading actor - heads of state, ministers, leading parliamentarians, mayors, and others - or a respected analyst - such as historian Bernard Lewis or journalist Claudia Rosett. Our goal is to discuss a current event or situation by delving deeper than what is offered by the media. Lecture topics span a wide spectrum but consistently look at the Middle East with a pragmatic eye and from the vantage point of American interests.

Douglas Feith
War and Decision

Wednesday, May 28, 2008
New York, NY
Cost: $50 per person (lunch included.) Complimentary for MEF donors of $500 or more in 2007

The Middle East Forum is pleased to present Douglas J. Feith to discuss his new book, War and Decision: Inside the Pentagon at the Dawn of the War on Terrorism (HarperCollins). It chronicles his experiences as undersecretary of defense for policy in the Bush administration, 2001-05, formulating policy at the highest levels of the U.S. government through critical stages of the wars in Iraq and against radical Islam.

Mr. Feith was at the center of policy decisions in these areas. He told The New Yorker that when historians look back, "I want to be in the class of people who did the right thing, the sensible thing, and not necessarily the fashionable thing." National Security Advisor Stephen Hadley called Mr. Feith "an example of honesty, decency, and integrity."

Now professor and distinguished practitioner in national security policy at Georgetown University, Mr. Feith previously served in several capacities in the Reagan administration. His articles on foreign and defense affairs have appeared in the Middle East Quarterly as well as The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The Washington Post, and Commentary. He was educated at Georgetown University and Harvard College.

R.S.V.P. by May 1, by e-mail (rosen@meforum.org), fax (215-546-5409) or telephone (215-546-5406 ext.20). Business attire. Limited capacity. You must have picture I.D. to enter the building.

British Jews call for boycotting Israel’s
independence celebrations


Wednesday April 30, 2008 23:41
author
by Saed Bannoura - IMEMC News & Agencies


A group of 100 famous academics, authors, actors and public figures of
the Jewish population in The United Kingdom signed a letter stating
that they will be boycotting the Israeli independence celebrations marking
the 60th anniversary, and stated that they “cannot celebrate the birth
of a state which was founded on terrorism”, The Guardian reported.


The signatories of the statement said that Israel forced 70.000
Palestinians into a “Death March” in 1948.

The letter states that Israel forced 70.000 Palestinians in 1948 out of
their home in Lydda (Lod) And Ramleh “in the heat of the summer
without food or water”, and added that hundreds of them died in what became
known Death March.

The Guardian said that among the signatories of the letter is Haim
Bresheeth, a professor at the University of East London. Prof. Bresheeth
was the organizer of the call for an academic boycott against Israel.

Also, attorney Daniel Machover, who filed a law suit against the
Israeli Major General Doron Almong, is among the signatories.

The writers of the letters stated in their document that they “cannot
celebrate the birthday of a state which was founded on terrorism,
massacres and the disposition of other people from their land”.

They added that they also cannot celebrate the birth of this state as
it is now engaging in ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people in
Gaza and continued to deny the legitimate rights of the Palestinian
people.

They also said that they “will celebrate independence when Jews and
Arabs can live as equals in the Middle East”.

The letter also says that Israel displaced 750.000 Palestinians when it
was established in 1948 and totally wiped out 400 villages, and that
“the ethnic cleansing did not stop at that point, as thousands of
Palestinians were expelled from the Galilee in 1956, and many thousands were
displaced when Israel occupied the West Bank and the Gaza Strip in
1967”.

It added that all Palestinian refugees have a right to return to their
land or receive compensation in accordance to the United Nations
resolution number 194.

“Israel has never accepted the Right of Return”, the letter adds, “We
will not be celebrating”.

Prof. Bresheeth was interviewed by the Israeli Ynetnews and rejected
claims that the letter is anti-Semitic.

He said that none of the figures who signed the letter approve or
support terrorism or anti-Semitism, and that they do not approve harming
civilian on both sides.

Prof. Bresheeth also said that the signatories want to see Israel and
Palestine living side by side in peace without warplanes of Qassam
shells.

He also said that Hamas movement said it is interested in talks with
Israel as long it withdraws from the occupied territories, but Israel is
unwilling to hold any talks with the movement.

Furthermore, Prof. Bresheeth added that
“Israel is inflicting terrorism
on the Palestinians since 40 years”.
"The real terror is the one Israel has inflicted on the Palestinians
for 40 years now, the terrorism of a strong state against a relatively
weak organization. We are pushing the Palestinians into a corner where
they have no choice by the attacks. We must not do this, the fact that
the government of Israel cannot ensure the safety of its residents and
the safety of Sderot is solely its own fault.”
The letter says as
published by the Ynet.

Saed Bannoura

Saed Bannoura (b. 1973) is a Palestinian journalist working for the Bethlehem-based IMEMC (www.imemc.org). Saed currently lives in the United States. He is confined to a wheelchair since 1991 after being shot repeatedly by an Israeli death squad, who had infiltrated a demonstration in Bethlehem. In his own words:

When the man noticed that I had realized their true identify he pulled a small automatic gun from under his shirt, and I ran away knowing that even if I surrendered to him then, I would have been immediately assassinated, as had happened to so many Palestinian martyrs before me.

The man ran after me, along with the other undercover death squad members, until I came to an area were he was standing above me on a hill, just five meters away from me. When he shouted at me again, I began to turn, and I could see his eyes, or at least, what was visible of them from under his mask. It was at that moment that he started to shoot.

After five or six rounds penetrated my chest and back, I fell to the ground, motionless, soaked with my own blood. I could not feel anything, I could not see clearly, and I could not hear anything.

I fell down face first, injuring my face and breaking my teeth on the ground. Then the man approached me and kicked me in my chest, breaking four ribs, in order to flip me over onto my back.
The last thing I heard before I passed out was that man who shot me saying, "After all that, and you're still alive!?"

Most of Israel's barrier is being constructed of fortified fencing. Near populated areas, however, it typically becomes a 26- foot high concrete wall. So most Palestinians know the "fence" as The Wall.

This monument to exclusion and intolerance has been give many names, including security fence, separation fence, security barrier, separation barrier, separation wall, apartheid wall, Sharon's Wall, and annexation wall.

The World Court calls it a gross violation of international law and basic human rights. Yet Israel is continuing to build the wall in several regions of the West Bank. - VTJP, May 2005

IT'S A BIRD, IT'S A PLANE, IT'S A ... “UAV”?!?! … by Iakoha’ko:wa

MNN. May 4, 2008. The Ottawa Citizens reported on January 22, 2008, that "The Canadian military has earmarked $220 million to build a new base for the Joint Task Force 2 counter-terrorism unit, with plans calling for the secretive formation to move out of Ottawa sometime after 2010.... Hillier recommended that JTF2's new base be located at Canadian Forces Base Trenton." [[From "Counter-terrorism unit..." by David Pugliese]

Just when we thought that the human race has finally advanced to a point where everyone realized that the military solution was no solution at all. Now Rick Hillier has rescued “war games” from the dust bin. Canadian taxpayers are now forced to neglect repairs to roads, sewage systems and infrastructures of hospitals and schools, cut down education and all the legitimate concerns of the people. How juvenile this is? These little boys want to keep playing video games. There’s no “restart game” button to restore the lives that were lost or the environment that was polluted by their delusions that problems can be solved if you shoot ‘em up and blast ‘em to kingdom come.

With all the absurd but potentially lethal commotion at the Mohawk community of Tyendinaga lately, 20 minutes from Trenton CFB, we have to wonder if there may be some connection to this military game playing. Why do they want to waste so much of taxpayers’ money for those SWAT-OPP gangs to go into Tyendinaga to harass, beat and arrest people for no good reason?.

Defence Construction Canada is the Crown corporation that builds new military bases. It answers to Michael Fortier, the Minister of Public Works and Government Services. He’s NOT an elected Member of Parliament, though he’s run for office. He has a background in investment banking and worked for Ogilvy Renault, a law firm with offices in Montreal. It’s obviously a money-making scheme for someone and it’s being sold though an appeal to adolescent adrenaline.

The Deputy Minister is Francois Guimont, also an appointed career bureaucrat. The DM "provides the overall vision and direction for the department, and oversees 12,000 employees..." According to the Ottawa Citizens these guys provide the “overall vision”. In other words, forget about democracy. Canadians are not war-like. this is a bill of goods that’s being stuffed down people’s throat. This is not a product of public discussion. We have not hear of Canadians calling for a greater use of arms. Guimont worked in the Privy Council Office and the Ministry of the Environment. [He's a "bottom feeder"!]

Defence Construction Canada (DCC) deals with one client only, the Department of National Defense (DND). Scott Stevenson is the ADM/IE (Assistant Deputy Minister/Infrastructure & Environment). He oversees all the details of everything for the military! He’s a military man, a graduate of Queens University and an economist. This “mega gamester” has made it into the big league. He’s living every megalomaniac school boy’s dream.

Rem Westland, another “gamster” held the position of ADM/IE in 1998-99 while he was Director General of Realty Policy and Plans from 1997-2003 at DND. It wouldn’t surprise us if he worked with Stevenson.

Westland has a cottage on Sharbot Lake, 40 minutes north of Kingston. In an exclusive interview with MNN he admitted that Sharbot Lake is Haudenosaunee land. But why is he keeping quiet while a phony Algonquin land claim plays itself out? Westland’s background puts him in a strategic position for whatever military plans are underway to develop the area.

Just this week, we heard on the news how manufacturing jobs in Ontario are down from 80,000 in 2001 to 60,000 in 2007. GM has just laid off 1000 skilled workers at its Oshawa plant, the other side of Trenton. Will the GM workers end up building the new training base that DCC will oversee quite likely at Trenton? Someone’s got to have the answer.

Pugliese stated, "Public Works and Government Services Canada has already purchased three properties [about 130 hectares] adjacent to CFB Trenton for the Defense Department... Another 270 hectares are also being looked at for purchase."

What kind of training will go on at this new base? The military has so many new lethal toys to test. It could involve nuclear submarines and ships in Lake Ontario or planes overhead. Trenton has a big airport. With so much buzz in the military news these days about UAV's (unmanned aerial vehicles), we wonder if that has something to do with it.

People should know about those little UAV's, what they look like and what they can do. You never know when you might see one and wonder what it is.

UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLES

UAV's are a growing part of 21st century warfare. They are mostly used in surveillance roles but also can be equipped to attack targets by remote control, sometimes at great distance. They are widely used by the occupation forces in Iraq and Afghanistan. Imaginative names are given to UAV's like “Raven”, “Hawk” and “Warrior”. The smallest UAV's can be put into a back pack and assembled on the ground by one person. They look like toy planes. Some UAV's can stay in the air for days and travel at speeds up to 200km/hr. Depending on how they are powered, they can be very quiet. The Canadian military uses the Skylark I, a small UAV made by Elbit, an Israeli company and sold to DND by Thales Systems Canada which has offices in Ottawa and Kingston.

The Skylark was designed to spy on the Palestinians. It can "look over the hill" and "around the corner" and record images day or night. It is durable in all weather conditions. Elbit's larger Hermes UAV can shoot and drop bombs.

According to the Elbit web site, "Skylark I can be used for both defense and homeland security applications including perimeter security, border and coastal surveillance, anti-terrorism surveillance and a variety of “law enforcement” “missions" like attacking Indigenous communities. Like hey! You wouldn’t want these guys to be deprived of fun just because was no legitimate targets, would you?

A device called a "ShotSpotter" can be mounted on a UAV in order to detect exactly where a shot has been fired from. It requires sensors that are placed on rooftops or street poles. It's used by various US Police Departments like Rochester, NY in Haudenosaunee Territory and Minneapolis, MN in Lakota Territory.

Could they be trying out the UAV's on the Mohawks at Tyendinaga? It doesn't sound like their toys work on those who keep pulling disappearing acts. Maybe their “peeping tom” toys don’t work on the socially “invisible” Indigenous? Since the colonists don’t want peaceful solutions, these guys think this is just another “technological challenge” to ‘git’ us!

This must be a joke. First they spent billions of dollars trying to kill us off, to make us invisible, deleting us from their history books and refusing us a fair say. Now they’re spending billions trying to build a technology of infra red heat seeking missiles and high tech gadgets to find those of us who survived their genocide. Don’t these idiots know we’re human beings? Nothing justifies treating us like targets.
