An Educational Power Point Presentation (with pictures and graphics)

Sabrina Harmanová byla jednou z těch, které jsou zachyceny na snímcích s „pyramidou těl“.

Vojín Sabrina: Měli jsme jim dělat peklo

„Měli jsme za úkol dělat vězňům peklo,“ napsala v e-mailu, který otiskl listWashington Post. Článek zároveň naznačuje, že tak činila na pokyn amerických tajných služeb. Harmanová je zachycena na jednom snímku, který ukazuje nahé irácké vězně nakupené do lidské pyramidy. Byla obviněna, protože se údajně podílela na trýznění zajatců: ti museli stát se zahalenou hlavou na bednách s elektrickými vodiči v rukách. Harmanová jim tvrdila, že pokud spadnou z bedny, usmrtí je proud.
Mluvčí Pentagonu odmítla informace Washington Postu potvrdit s poukazem na to, že vyšetřování ještě probíhá.
„Vždycky přiváděli jednoho i více vězňů, kteří měli želízka a hlavu zakrytou pytlem. Mým úkolem jakožto členky vojenské policie bylo udržovat je vzhůru tak dlouho, dokud nepromluví,“ napsala k tomu Harmanová.
„Vězni byli svlečeni do naha, prohledáni a potom byli donuceni, aby stáli či klečeli celé hodiny. Člověk, který je přivedl, obvykle zároveň určil, jestli na ně máme či nemáme být hodní,“ naznačila, odkud přicházely povely.
Členové vojenské policie - citoval Washington Post Harmanovou - přijímali rozkazy od důstojníků vojenské rozvědky, CIA a od civilních vyšetřovatelů, kteří byli armádou k této práci najímáni.

...

Sabrina Harmanová nastoupila jako rezervistka do armády v roce 2001. Její jednotka byla povolána do akce loni v únoru. Do té doby se živila jako úřednice potravinového řetězce Papa John's Pizza.
„Ženevské konvence jsme nikdy neprobírali,“ říká dnes o svém vojenském výcviku. „Poprvé jsem je četla až po obvinění. Podtrhla jsem si v nich všechno, co jsme porušovali. Bylo toho hodně,“ svěřuje se bezelstně, zatímco čeká na proces.
Kromě Harmanové je obviněna také její kolegyně Lynndie Englandová, jejíž fotografie s iráckým vězněm „na vodítku“ obletěla svět.

Israeli minister wants Arabs expelled

An Israeli cabinet minister has called for the expulsion of about 1.3 million Palestinian citizens of Israel who constitute nearly one fifth of the state’s population.

Lieberman, a former Moldovan immigrant who arrived in Israel in 1978, suggested that the existence of a large non-Jewish minority in Israel threatened the "Jewish identity" and "ethnic purity" of Israel.

...

"He is not the only fascist. The entire political atmosphere in Israel provides a most suitable environment for the growth and prosperity of fascism. This is why sickening statements as such go unchallenged."

Tibi blamed the international community, especially the United States and Europe, for their "obscene double-standards toward Israeli fascism".

...

"At 8:00 am, we'll bomb the commercial centers; at noon, we'll bomb their gas stations and at two o'clock we'll bomb the banks … Then we keep the border crossing open," Lieberman was quoted as saying during a cabinet session.

Upset by his remarks, Israeli opposition leader and then Foreign Minister Shimon Peres reportedly looked at Lieberman, telling him … "and at 6:00 pm, you'll receive an invitation to the international Tribunal in the Hague".

Lieberman now lives at the settlement of Nikodem in the northern West Bank, built on a piece of land, which he and other immigrants from the former Soviet Union had seized from Palestinian villagers.

Budou se Rumsfeld s Bushem zpovídat z genocidy?

„Nebyli jsme zvoleni, abychom se pořád líbili,“ tímto svým pohledem na demokracii se snažil podpořit zapojení českých vojáků a přidání se na stranu jeho "přátel" tehdejší prezident Václav Havel v rozpravě v parlamentu o vojenské podpoře útoku na Irák, 15. ledna 2003.

"Myslím, že je to velmi těžké rozhodnutí, ale domníváme se, že ta cena za to stojí," tehdejší ministryně zahr. věcí USA Madeleine Albrightová a blízká přítelkyně Václava Havla na otázku redaktora Lesley Stahla v pořadu 60 minut, zda cena, kdy díky mezinárodním sankcím na Irák zemřelo půl milionu nezletilých Iráčanů, stojí za to.

Uznávám, že pouštět do světa takovéto fotky je tak trochu mediální masáž. Je to hra s emocemi. Nicméně válka JE taková a nevidím jediný důvod, proč mají lidé sledovat do omrzení v novinách a televizi snímky usměvavých vojáků, záběry z tiskových konferencí velení nebo zinscenované strhávání sochy Sadáma Husajna. To není opravdová válka, to je válka virtuální, která slouží pro vaše ANO nalévání vašich daní do jejich zločinných aktivit. TOTO již však JE válka skutečná! Snímky mučených Iráčanů prolomily ideologickou blokádu "demokratických" médií, jdoucích za jakékoli doby vždy ruku v ruce s režimní elitou mocných. Není již proto zcela vyloučeno, že se brzy někde objeví i tyto snímky. Podobné, za které mne poslanec Parlamentu České republiky Vidím ještě před agresí do Iráku mezi řádky obvinil ze spolupráce s "Husajnovou tajnou službou". Jsem zvědav, z čeho mě obviní teď. Zřejmě ze spolupráce s al-Kajdou. Nic jiného také ONI neumí, argumenty NEMAJÍ, logický úsudek také ne.

Zde předkládáme důkazy, že Spojené státy používají v Iráku tříštivé střely a bomby I PROTI CIVILISTŮM (podle konvencí je dovolenou jejich nasazení pouze proti vojenským cílům).

Nyní se tedy podívejte, jak naše "vyspělá civilizace" bojuje s "terorismem":

THE POINT OF NO RETURN

Dictators do not appear overnight. They must gradually assume more and more power over time so that the population does not realize what is going on, or does not feel it is worthwhile to object.

But to maintain control, dictators "seduce" their population into greater and greater atrocities, over time. There is more than simply acclimating the population involved to the dictator's agenda. By tricking the population into acceptance of greater and greater atrocities, the dictator will eventually reach a position where the people will be too afraid to examine what they themselves have become. Trapped by the fear of examining themselves, such people turn into the most fanatical of the dictator's supporters. They dare not look at the dictator's evil for to do so is to look at their own. Once the dictator can trick his people past that point, they are his slaves. Hitler used this tactic. So did Stalin.

The people of the United States stand at that point right now. That the US Government is using torture on POWs (just as Hitler did) is beyond argument. One can either stand up and denounce that torture and demand the firing of all who took part in it (and the end of the war), or one is by default complicit, an accessory after the fact, seen by all to condone such barbarism.

Anyone who steps across that line is trapped. Unable to look at what they themselves have become they will refuse to look at what the government has become, indeed will create or accept any justification, no matter how thin and transparent, rather than question that government. And indeed this web site gets email from people who have already crossed that point, and are trying to explain why torture is really necessary "this time".
So, you are down to a choice. There is no more being neutral, or sitting on the fence. As Bush himself said, you are either with him or against him, and unless you are actively against him and his war machine, then he wins by default. Unless you stop them now, sooner or later, Bush and the NeoCons will succeed in turning this nation into the 21st century version of Nazi Germany, powered by fanatics so afraid to look in a mirror that they will inflict any pain on any people, rather than do so.

Time to decide.

Two Israeli men have been arrested after evading Unicoi County, Tennessee sheriff`s deputies, driving eratically on a two lane highway, and littering.
But, there may be more to their apprehension than that.
Sheriff Kent Harris says the stories they`ve been telling investigators simply don`t add up.
The two men led authorities on a three-mile high speed chase in a rented moving truck.
Lt. Ron Arnold says one of the men had a fake Florida i.d. and passports found didn`t add up.
The FBI is now testing a bottle thrown from the truck during the pursuit.
Robert White, the community member who found the bottle, says it had a powder and liquid in it.
Sheriff Harris says the substance didn`t test for any type of drug, but did for a fuel source.
The driver, 23-year old Samuel Dahan and passenger 19-year old Almaliach Noar claim they were delivering furniture and were headed to Boston, Massachusetts.
Authorities found a couple of "learning to fly" business cards during a search of the moving truck.
Both men are being held in seperate cells pending a bond hearing Monday morning.
Investigators have determined both men are living in the United States legally.

Two men arrested after high-speed chase in Tennessee

Associated Press

ERWIN, Tenn. - Two Israeli men who led the Unicoi County sheriff on a high-speed chase in a rented moving truck were placed under arrest and are being investigated by the FBI, local officials said.

Shmuel Dahan and Almaliach Naor, both from Israel, were being held without bond Sunday afternoon at the Unicoi County Jail. The truck, rented from a Ryder office in Mars Hills, N.C., was being held in the county garage pending an FBI investigation, officials said.

Dahan is charged with reckless driving, littering, false identification and evading arrest, while Naor faces charges of false identification and evading arrest, an officer with the Unicoi County Sheriff's Department who would not give his name said Sunday.

An investigation by the FBI is ongoing and more charges are possible, he said. A woman who answered the phone at the FBI's Knoxville office said there was no one available to answer questions about the arrest.

The incident began late Saturday afternoon when Sheriff Kent Harris noticed a rental truck traveling at a high speed along former U.S. Highway 23, a lightly-traveled highway near the North Carolina state line.

"I was really concerned because the driver would not stop after I flashed my headlights for nearly three miles," Harris said. "He was weaving back and forth and I was wondering what a large (rental truck) was doing on the two-lane highway late Saturday afternoon instead of the faster I-26 Interstate."

Harris said he saw the men throw something from the truck while they were being pursued. Officers scouring the area later found a vial containing an unknown substance along the roadway, he said.

Once the men were apprehended, officers also found a "Learn to Fly" brochure in the truck, leading Harris and others to express concern about security at the Nuclear Fuel Services plant in Erwin.

"I got a sick feeling when I saw it," Harris said.

Dahan also gave authorities a fake Florida driver's license issues in Plantation, Fla., he said, while Naor produced a fake identification card.

Harris subsequently contacted the FBI, the federal Bureau of Tobacco and Firearms and other local authorities to look into the situation.

"We're not overreacting," Harris said. "We have a responsibility to protect the citizens of Unicoi County and that's what I'm going to do at any cost. I'd rather overreact, if that's what you call it, than be sorry later."

9-11 AND THE SMOKING GUN

Part 2: A real smoking gun
By Pepe Escobar

Part 1: 'Independent' commission

If the 9-11 Commission is really looking for a smoking gun, it should look no further than at Lieutenant-General Mahmoud Ahmad, the director of the Pakistani Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) at the time.

In early October 2001, Indian intelligence learned that Mahmoud had ordered flamboyant Saeed Sheikh - the convicted mastermind of the kidnapping and killing of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl - to wire US$100,000 from Dubai to one of hijacker Mohamed Atta's two bank accounts in Florida.

A juicy direct connection was also established between Mahmoud and Republican Congressman Porter Gross and Democratic Senator Bob Graham. They were all in Washington together discussing Osama bin Laden over breakfast when the attacks of September 11, 2001, happened.

Mahmoud's involvement in September 11 might be dismissed as only Indian propaganda. But Indian intelligence swears by it, and the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has confirmed the whole story: Indian intelligence even supplied Saeed's cellular-phone numbers. Nobody has bothered to check what really happened. The 9-11 Commission should pose very specific questions about it to FBI director Robert Mueller when he testifies this month.

In December 2002, Graham said he was "surprised at the evidence that there were foreign governments involved in facilitating the activities of at least some of the [September 11] terrorists in the United States ... It will become public at some point when it's turned over to the archives, but that's 20 or 30 years from now." He could not but be referring to Pakistan and Mahmoud. If Mahmoud was really involved in September 11, this means the Pakistani ISI -"the state within the state" - knew all about it. And if the intelligence elite in Pakistan knew it, an intelligence elite in Saudi Arabia knew it, as well as an intelligence elite in the US.

Get Osama bin Laden
On August 22, 2001, Asia Times Online reported Get Osama! Now! Or else ...


On September 9, the legendary "Lion of the Panjshir", Ahmed Shah Masoud, the key Northern Alliance commander, was assassinated by two suicide bombers posing as journalists in his base in northern Afghanistan. The Northern Alliance tells Washington that the ISI may be involved. Masoud himself had told this correspondent, two weeks before he was killed, of the incestuous link between bin Laden and al-Qaeda, the Taliban and the ISI. A 2002 Asia Times Online investigation would later establish that Masoud was killed as a gift from al-Qaeda to the Taliban, with heavy involvement by Abdul Sayyaf, an Afghan mujahideen commander very close to the ISI and the Saudis. From Washington's perspective, this was also a gift. Masoud was the crucial Afghan nationalist leader, supported by Russia and Iran; after the Taliban being smashed he would never have accepted a feeble, US-sponsored, Hamid Karzai-style government.

On September 10, the Pakistani daily The News reported that the Mahmoud visit to the United States "triggered speculation about the agenda of his mysterious meetings at the Pentagon and National Security Council". If he'd been to the National Security Council, he had certainly met Rice. Mahmoud did meet with his counterpart, Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) director George Tenet. Tenet and Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage had been in Islamabad in May, when Tenet had "unusually long" meetings with Musharraf. Armitage for his part has countless friends in the Pakistani military and the ISI. Mahmoud also met a number of high officials at the White House and the Pentagon and had a crucial meeting with Marc Grossman, the under secretary of state for political affairs. Rice maintains she did not meet Mahmoud then.

On the morning of September 11, Mahmoud was having a breakfast meeting at the Capitol with Graham and Goss. Goss spent as many as 10 years working on numerous CIA clandestine operations. He is very close to Vice President Dick Cheney. It's interesting to note that two weeks ago Goss suggested to the Justice Department to bring perjury charges against the new Cheney nemesis, Clarke. As it is widely known, Graham and Goss were co-heads of the joint House-Senate investigation that proclaimed there was "no smoking gun" as far as President George W Bush having any advance knowledge of September 11.

According to the Washington Post, and also to sources in Islamabad, the Mahmoud-Graham-Goss meeting lasted until the second plane hit Tower 2 of the World Trade Center. Graham later said they were talking about terrorism coming from Afghanistan, which means they were talking about bin Laden.

Pakistani intelligence sources told Asia Times Online that on the afternoon of September 11 itself, as well as on September 12 and 13, Armitage met with Mahmoud with a stark choice: either Pakistan would help the US against al-Qaeda, or it would be bombed back to the Stone Age. Secretary of State Colin Powell presented an ultimatum in the form of seven US demands. Pakistan accepted all of them. One of the demands was for Musharraf to send Mahmoud to Kandahar again and force the Taliban to extradite bin Laden. Mahmoud knew in advance Mullah Omar would refuse. But when he went to Kandahar the Taliban leader said he would accept, as long as the Americans proved bin Laden was responsible for September 11. There was no proof, and Afghanistan was bombed anyway, a policy already decided well in advance.

It's important to remember than on September 13 Islamabad airport was shut down - allegedly because of threats against Pakistan's strategic assets. On September 14, Islamabad declared total support for the US: the airport was immediately reopened. Mahmoud remained in Washington until September 16 - when the war on Afghanistan was more than programmed, and Pakistan was firmly in the "with us" and not the "against us" column.

Million-dollar questions remain. Did Mahmoud know when and how the attacks of September 11 would happen? Did Musharraf know? Could the Bush administration have prevented September 11? It's hard to believe high echelons of the CIA and FBI were not aware of the direct link between the ISI and alleged chief hijacker Mohammed Atta.

On October 7, Mahmoud was demoted from the ISI. By that time, Washington obviously knew of the connection between Mahmoud, Saeed Sheikh and Mohamed Atta: the FBI knew it. The official version is that Mahmoud was sacrificed because he was too close to the Taliban - which, it is never enough to remind, are a cherished creature of the ISI. Two other ISI big shots, Lieutenant-General Mohammed Aziz Khan and Chief of General Staff Mohammed Yousouf, are also demoted along with Mahmoud. Saeed Sheikh was under orders to Khan.

The fact remains that even with this Musharraf-conducted purge of the ISI elite, the bulk of ISI officers remained, and still are, pro-Taliban. Other former ISI directors living in Pakistan, such as the colorful, outspoken Lieutenant-General Hamid Gul, did not "disappear" and always renew their support for the Taliban. But as Asia Times Online has reported, Mahmoud did disappear. He lives in near seclusion in Rawalpindi. And he is definitely not talking. Graham and Goss may not be interested in talking to him either. Because he may be the ultimate September 11 smoking gun.

Conclusion
The Karl Rove-designed campaign to re-elect Bush is in essence anchored on September 11. The Republican convention in New York will happen in the first week of September. Bush's speech will be on September 2 - to force the connection with the three-year commemoration of September 11.

This whole affair is not about whether Clarke committed "perjury"; whether Rice was really up to her job; or whether George W Bush knew something and then "forgot" about it. The families of September 11 victims, US public opinion, the demonized Islamic world, the whole world for that matter, all everybody wants to know is what really happened on September 11. The only party that does not seem interested in getting to the bottom of it is the Bush administration. The official fable of 19 kamikaze Arabs turning Boeings into missiles with military precision, armed only with box cutters and a few flight lessons and directed from an Afghan cave by a satellite phone-shy bin Laden simply does not hold. The commission is not asking the really hard questions. Here are just a few - and they are far from being the most embarrassing.

1) The "stand down" order: Why, despite more than an hour's warning that an attack was happening, were no F-16s protecting US airspace? Documents easily available online reveal why the Pentagon could not act: because of bureaucracy. Why did the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) claim it took 25 minutes after the transponder was shut down to learn that Flight 11 - which hit World Trade Center Tower 1 - was hijacked? Why did fighters not take off from Andrews Air Force base just outside Washington to protect the Pentagon?

2) The pre-September 11 suspicious stock option trades in American Airlines and United Airlines were never fully investigated. Who profited?

3) What happened to the FBI investigation into flight schools - when it was proved that at least five of the 19 hijackers were trained in US military schools?

4) Why did Bush keep reading a pet-goat story for more than half an hour after the first WTC hit, and 15 minutes after Chief of Staff Andrew Card told him there had been an attack?

5) What really happened to Flight 93? An Associated Press story last August quoting a congressional report said the FBI suspected the plane was crashed on purpose. The FBI has a flight-simulation video of what happened: the video - as well as the black box - remain top secret. And as far as four "indestructible" black boxes are concerned, how come none were found, unlike Mohammed Atta's intact passport lying in the WTC rubble?

6) Why have no scientific experts examined the physical and mathematical evidence that a Boeing 757 could not have possibly "disappeared" without a trace after hitting the Pentagon? For the most exhaustive and practically incontrovertible analysis available on the net, see this report.

7) What remains of the very tight 1980s bin Laden-ISI-CIA connection? How much did the CIA know about what the ISI was up to? And how much did the ISI know about what al-Qaeda was up to?

8) What does Rice really know about the very close relations between Mahmoud and the top echelons of the Bush administration?

The genie - the crucial information - is still in the bottle.

QUIETLY, U.S. PREPARES FOR ISRAEL STRIKE ON IRAN

WASHINGTON [MENL] -- The United States has been examining the prospect that Israel will attack Iranian nuclear facilities in an attempt to prevent the Islamic republic from completing an atomic bomb as early as this year.

U.S. analysts and government sources said the Bush administration has discussed the prospect of an Israeli air strike at several levels of government. They said the issue has been examined in terms of the diplomatic, military and security implications for the United States, particularly its military presence in Iraq and the Persian Gulf region.

The issue of Iran's nuclear weapons program was discussed by President George Bush and Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon during the latter's visit to the White House on April 14. The sources said the two men were alone during the brief discussion in an effort by the president to gauge a likely Israeli response to the completion of an Iranian nuclear bomb.

"It would be intolerable for the Middle East if they [Iran] get a nuclear weapon," Bush said after meeting Sharon.

Jen jsme plnili příkazy...

Vladimír Stwora / 9.5.2004

Nacisté před Norimberským soudem často tvrdili, že pouze plnili příkazy. Že si uvědomovali špatnost svých činů, ale nemohli nic dělat. Ve vojenské hierarchii je odepření příkazů trestáno. Tehdy před padesáti lety jim to soud jako polehčující okolnost neuznal. Stejně tak se hájili vojáci obvinění za válečné zločiny ve Vietnamu. Nyní oprášili právníci obviněných z mučení vězňů stejný argument.

Pravdou je, že vojenské právo tento argument uznává jako platnou obhajobu. Ale ne tehdy, je-li příkaz velitele protizákonný. Takže co by měl voják dělat, jestliže se domnívá, že příkaz je protizákonný? Podle vojenského soudu by měl - a teď se podržte - příkaz splnit, protože musí předpokládat, že zákonný je. A právníci obviněných vyšetřovatelů z věznice Abu Ghraib nyní říkají, že přesně tak se vojáci zachovali.

Zdá se, že je to dosti nejasná a šedá oblast. Na druhé straně totiž stojí odborníci na vojenské právo, kteří tvrdí, že voják může odmítnout příkaz, který je protizákonný. Že v tom smyslu jsou i vojáci cvičeni. Že mučení ve věznici Abu Ghraib bylo jednoznačně tak špatné, že každý voják, kterému to bylo nařízeno, se měl vzepřít.

Jeden z obviněných, Ivan Frederick, se skutečně ptal velitele, je-li to, co dělají, v pořádku. A bylo mu řečeno, že má plnit příkazy a neptat se.

Je zcela jisté, že mučení a ponižování zajatců je běžnou součástí v amerických koncentračních táborech, které - ač vedeny Američany - nejsou na americké půdě. Přímo v USA se zřejmě také mučí, ale méně okatě. Je-li nutno někoho skřípnout pořádněji, dělá se to tak, že se oběť odešle některému "spřízněnému režimu", kde vládnou loutky nastrčené Američany, a kde nemají s mučením žádné problémy - např. Pákistán, Alžír apod.

Něco podobného nedávno postihlo i kanadského občana syrského původu Mahera Arara, i když v jeho případě lze těžko mluvit o odeslání do země, kde vládne loutková vláda dosazena Američany. Jeho poslali do Sýrie, a jak se zdá, bylo to na společnou žádost kanadské i americké bezpečnostní služby. Arar v roce 2002 cestoval z Tuniska do Kanady. Při mezipřistání v New Yorku byl zadržen, vyslýchán a bez obvinění odeslán do Sýrie. V syrské věznici si pobyl rok (bez obvinění), než ho na přímluvu kanadské vlády zase pustili. Arar tvrdí, že byl v Sýrii často mučen.

Rumsfeld varoval, že s fotografiemi z mučení se roztrhl pytel a že se máme připravit na další otřesné záběry. Některé noviny jich prý mají už tisíce (ačkoliv z toho zatím málo co publikovaly).

Nebo si připomeňme, co proniklo ven z koncentračního tábora X v zálivu Guantanamo na Kubě.

Američanům jejich "vysoký morální standard" zjevně nebrání takto si počínat. Společnost, ve které je hnacím motorem v kultuře násilí a krev, se musí čas od času odreagovat na živých obětech.

Z národní hrdinky ostuda - ale možná ani ne

Mezitím řeší malá vesnička Fort Ashby v západní Virgínii, jak se vyrovnat se skutečností, že místní rodačka Lynndie Englandové, jejíž foto viselo až do minulého týdne ve zdejším WalMartu na tabuli cti, je vlastně sadistickou bestií, mučící a ponižující zajatce v Abu Ghraib. Obrázky, na kterých pózuje nad nahými vězni s cigaretou v ústech, oběhly svět.

Foto sundali. Ale jinak většina obyvatel se Lynndie zastává. Ostatně ji většina obyvatel zná osobně. Její rodiče to vysvětlují tak, že prostě byla ve špatnou dobu na špatném místě. A sousedé to, zdá se, berou. Její matka komentovala uveřejněné fotografie takto: "Blbost, dětská nerozvážnost." A pak přešla do útoku: "A to, co dělají Iráčané naším chlapcům, je správné? Co Ženevská konvence, to jim neříká nic?" Jinými slovy, oni v té své zaslepenosti skutečně nechápou, že tam v tom Iráku v první řadě vůbec nemají co dělat. A že pokud Iráčané "něco dělají našim chlapcům", tak je to plně zdůvodnitelná obrana před agresorem. Mají se snad nechat vystřílet? Právě ta zmiňovaná Ženevská konvence garantuje právo obyvatel na okupovaném území bránit se proti okupantům. To tak nějak paní Englandová přehlédla.

Otec Lynndie Kenneth England jezdí s náklaďákem, za oknem má vylepeno: "Proud Parents of a US soldier" - "Hrdí rodiče amerického vojáka".

Nacionalismus spolu s vybičovaným patriotismem je stále stmelujícím prvkem v této společnosti. Fort Ashby a hrdí rodiče Lynndie Engglandové nejsou výjimkou, takových rodičů a takových vesnic a městeček je na americkém západě mnoho.

Jak jinak si lze vysvětlit, že i po zveřejnění těchto strašných snímků existuje stále dobrá polovina americké populace, která ještě Bushově juntě věří - viz poslední výzkumy veřejného mínění. Bush je stále v čele, Kerry těsně za ním. Tak si říkám, že za tím bude něco víc, než jen omezenost nebo nedostatek informací.

US and Israel Control Al Qaeda

http://www.israelnationalnews.com/news.php3?id=61640

The United States and Israel are the brains behind Al-Qaeda’s terrorist mayhem according to an Iranian diplomat. “In a bid to force Iraq’s Arab neighbors to submit to their Iraq policy, the United States and the Zionist regime orchestrate such terrorist attacks,” the former Iranian ambassador to Syria said Wednesday. His statements were made in an interview with the Iranian Mehr News Agency (MNA).

Former Ambassador Hossein Sheikholeslam was referring to the attacks in Damascus on Tuesday. The attacks took place in the district where the Iranian, Canadian, and British embassies are located, as well as the offices of the United Nations.

“Most Arab countries in the Middle East region do not accept the Iraq policy of the U.S. Therefore, they are trying to entangle regional countries by supporting such terrorist acts,” Sheikholeslam continued.

MNA says the former ambassador claimed that this “was not the first time that the United States and Israel have employed Al-Qaeda elements to help them realize their terrorist objectives.”

The Mehr News Agency is based in Tehran with its stated goal being “to provide accurate and up-to-the-minute information to the public, with an emphasis on news about Iran and the rest of the Islamic world.” MNA, the top Iranian news agency recently produced an article entitled What Price 'Freedom' in which it alleged that U.S. military personnel are "committing systematic sexual abuse against Iraqi civilians..." The article directs the reader to a website that has been allegedly set up by the U.S. Armed Forces and contains alleged photos of the atrocities committed in Iraq against "women and children".

The website contains nothing of the sort and is, in fact, the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network (RAINN), an organization that has no connection to the U.S. military or the operations in Iraq. RAINN is the largest domestic anti-sexual assault organization in the U.S.

This looks like the start of a propaganda campaign to sell Americans the idea that "Al Qaeda is among us and you cannot tell who they are, so take our word for it when we start making arrests."

'US soldiers abused young girl at Iraqi prison'
7.17PM, Fri May 7 2004

The US military has said it will investigate claims by a former inmate of Abu Ghraib prison that a girl as young as 12 was stripped and beaten by military personnel.

Suhaib al-Baz, a journalist for the al-Jazeera television network, claims to have been tortured at the prison, based west of Baghdad, while held there for 54 days.

Mr al-Baz was arrested when reporting clashes between insurgents and coalition forces in November.

He said: "They brought a 12-year-old girl into our cellblock late at night. Her brother was a prisoner in the other cells.

"She was naked and screaming and calling out to him as they beat her. Her brother was helpless and could only hear her cries. This affected all of us because she was just a child.

The allegations cannot be verified independently but Mr al-Baz maintains psychological and physical violence were commonplace in the jail.

He also claims that a father and his 15-year-old son were tortured in front of his cell.

THE PLAN IS TO USE AMERICA TO BREAK AMERICA

Why the exposure of US torture and abuse serves the Illuminati agenda so well


By David Icke

We are watching the daily unfolding of Alice in Wonderland. Hold that thought when you watch the TV news. What is, isn't and what isn't, is.

The violence in Iraq may be bad for America, but it serves the Illuminati perfectly by justifying the continued, and indeed expanded, presence of US troops in the Middle East in line with their long-planned agenda for global control.

In the same way, the global condemnation of the torture and abuse of Iraqi prisoners is bad for America, but perfect for the Illuminati that controls the U.S. administrations.

But why?

The United States may be the world superpower today and that's precisely what the Illuminati planned for it to be in the agenda for the centralisation of global control - the planetary Orwellian state of world government, world army, world central bank and a microchipped population under constant survellience.

But while America is being used now as the vehicle to impose this current stage of the fascist agenda it is not meant to continue as the superpower. In fact, destroying that status and breaking the spirit of America is fundamental in the installation of the Illuminati global dictatorship.

The reason is this: a world government (dictatorship) and a superpower do not go together. The Illuminati dictatorship is meant to be the only superpower and for that to happen the United States must be brought into line.

The greatest block to the world government is national identity and whether we may not agree with America's sense of itself there is no question that it has a deep rooted, almost genetic, sense of indentity and national pride. While that continues there is no way the nation will allow itself to be openly dictated to and controlled by a world central government.

Americans and their country are being used to advance the agenda now, but the plan is, not least through a manipulated conflict with China, to destroy the might of both these 'superpowers' so they come under the authority of the Illuminati world government that would be installed to 'clear up the mess' left by the consequences of the conflicts and conquests now underway.

In other words: Problem-Reaction-Solution.

The plan is to use America and in doing so to break America, economically, politically and militarily. Most importantly it wants to break the American spirit and its sense of identity and self.

So the exposure of the US torture and abuse of Iraqi prisoners serves the Illuminati in many ways, two in particular:

(a) It further stimulates outrage in the Arab world about the United States and, as I wrote years ago, the plan is to engineer a Muslim 'Holy War' against the US to 'justify' the use of their fire power to set the Middle East ablaze and take over the region.

(b) It eats away at America's, albiet false, sense of idenity as the John Wayne good guys who sacrifice themselves for freedom and justice across the world. Americans torture people? That can't be right, it's those evil foreigners that do that, isn't it? The 'revelation' that the United States 'support our troops with pride' military could commit such abominations is a massive blow to America's self confidence and sense of national idenity - exactly as planned.

Nothing is what it seems and while we may appear to be seeing the expansion and grotesque expression of American might and power we are actually watching that power and sense of nationhood being systematically destroyed.
