13 March 2006 MOSCOW - Russian state television revived an allegation that Ukraine hosted a secret CIA prison for terrorist suspects, a move Kiev allegedly made to prove its loyalty to the United States.
The alleged prison was located in a former nuclear weapons storage base in a military garrison in the Kiev region, an investigative reporter for Rossiya television said in a broadcast late Sunday. He said the prisoners were probably transferred to Ukraine from Poland and Romania. "In the opinion of many foreign experts, Ukraine served as a buffer," the reporter, Arkady Mamontov, said. "When information about the location of secret prisons on the territory of East European states, first of all Poland, came out and the scandal started, they remembered the Ukrainian variant." |

Sofia News agency The United States demand that Bulgaria grants them unlimited access to Bulgaria's military bases and equipment, and Bulgaria does not agree.
Negotiations concerning US military bases here still haven't been concluded, Angel Naydenov, head of the Parliamentary Defence Committee explained for private Nova television. Three negotiation stages have been so far completed since October 2005, and Bulgaria is currently very close to the finish, he said. Comment: "Give us access to all of your military bases or we will unleash our band of "mulsim terrorists" to prove that you support terrorism, after which we will bomb the crap out of your country."

Wed Mar 15, 3:32 AM ET NEW YORK - The United States will call for a vote in the UN General Assembly on a proposed new Human Rights Council, but will then vote against the measure, The New York Times reported.
The 191-member assembly has been unable to agree on a replacement for the current UN Human Rights Commission, which is criticised for including among its 53 members notorious human rights abusers such as China, Cuba, Sudan and Zimbabwe. The United States, however, is opposed to a draft proposal for a council with 47 members that would be elected by absolute majority of the General Assembly, insisting instead on a smaller body whose members would be elected by a two-thirds majority. |

News Release 15 March 2006 US House Votes to Advance Offensive Biological Weapons Plan
In an titanic fit of myopia, the US House of Representatives has passed a bill that advances a US plan to wage biological warfare against Colombia and other countries where illicit narcotics are produced. If passed by the US Senate, the bill (HR 2829) will require the US Drug Czar to quickly formulate a plan to field test biological weapons designed to eradicate illicit crops. The Biological Weapons Convention (BWC) prohibits all biological warfare, including attacks on crops. The BWC has no exemptions - not for the Drug War, nor for the US Congress. The US eradication project thus violates the BWC's Article I, which prohibits development and stockpiling of biological weapons. The Sunshine Project will call upon the BWC to prevent violation of the treaty by the United States. In April, the Sunshine Project will distribute an Agent Green dossier to governments attending a preparatory meeting for the BWC's upcoming 6th Review Conference. If the US bill is signed into law, the Sunshine Project will press for multilateral action by the BWC 6th Review Conference itself, when it meets in November. |
