IRNA
02/09/2006 President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Thursday that the US supports all the terrorist groups, but, accuses the noble people of Palestine who are struggling to liberate their territories from occupation of terrorism.
He said in his address to the people of Sardasht that the United States supplied Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein with advanced weapons and helped the then Iraqi regime with propaganda machine against Iran. Ahmadinejad said that Washington also has a record of supporting terrorist attacks against residents of Iranian cities in the province including in Sardasht. |

04sep06 FAR-RIGHT extremists (read MI5) have adopted the tactics of Islamic jihadis by posting videos on the internet in which they threaten to behead British Muslims.
The films show balaclava-clad white British men brandishing guns, knives and clubs, calling on all Muslims to leave Britain or be killed. One appears to be a soldier who has served in the Gulf. In one film, a man tells Muslims to "go home" or risk being burned alive. He threatens, "I'll cut your head off", and claims to have "comrades" across Britain who have "had enough". |
Consultant to the Executive Office of the President Caught with Videos That Show Him Having Sex with Children
ABC News
Aug. 31, 2006 An Ivy League business school professor is in federal custody for allegedly having videos of himself engaging in sexual acts with children, ABC News has learned.
Lawrence Scott Ward, 63, Professor Emeritus of Marketing at University of Pennsylvania's renowned Wharton School of Business, was caught with child pornography in his luggage and on his laptop computer after arriving at Dulles International Airport on a flight from Brazil, according to court documents. An affidavit in support of a criminal complaint filed today in federal court in Alexandria says Ward's luggage was flagged for a more thorough inspection for possible child pornography after a customs officer noticed Ward's "excessive" trips to Thailand. Federal agents recovered at least three DVDs, in which Ward appears to be "engaging in sexual contact" with children, the affidavit reads. A video of children as young as eight engaged in sexual activity was also allegedly found on Ward's laptop computer. |

31/08/2006 An Israeli diplomat from the Consulate-General in Atlanta was arrested Thursday on suspicion of holding child pornography material on his computer and child exploitation.
Yosef Sagir Ofri, 37, was serving as the security officer at the Israeli diplomatic mission in Atlanta and was carrying an Israeli diplomatic passport. A press release put out by the Columbia County sheriff's office, states that the Israeli diplomat was arrested Thursday and his home was searched. According to the indictment handed down by a Columbia County grand jury, Sagir-Ofri is charged with seducing a child by email and internet contacts, "to commit illegal acts relating to sodomy, aggravated sodomy, child molestation and aggravated child molestation, utilizing verbal descriptions, narrative accounts and photographic depictions." The investigation was conducted by the local Sheriff department in cooperation with state and federal agencies. |
Think Progress
01/09/2006 The best case is that President Bush's speech in Utah was a cynical manipulation of the American public.
Perhaps this is why he portrays his unpopular war in Iraq as part of a heroic battle against the forces of evil. Sunni and Shia, Persian and Arab, Al Qaida and Hamas are all, he claims, "a single movement, a worldwide network of radicals." This mushy merger of rival groups and nations with vastly different histories and motives, some in actual combat with each other, may help the president convince some that they should back his war in Iraq as a way of defeating Hezbollah and Hamas. It helps him explain why he abandoned pursuit of Osama bin Laden to overthrow Saddam Hussein. They are, in his view, all the same. |
Criticize Israel? You're an Anti-Semite! - How can we have a real discussion about Mideast peace if speaking honestly about Israel is out of bounds?
Rosa Brooks
LA Times 1 Sept o6 EVER WONDER what it's like to be a pariah?
Publish something sharply critical of Israeli government policies and you'll find out. If you're lucky, you'll merely discover that you've been uninvited to some dinner parties. If you're less lucky, you'll be the subject of an all-out attack by neoconservative pundits and accused of rabid anti-Semitism. |

01/09/2006 The mother of a boy abducted 24 years ago said she's bewildered by two photographs left at her front door, apparently showing her son and two other children bound and gagged.
The old photos appear to show 12-year-old Johnny Gosch with his mouth gagged and his hands and feet tied. The boy is wearing the same sweat pants Johnny was wearing when he disappeared while delivering newspapers on the morning of September 5, 1982, his mother said. "It's like reliving it," Noreen Gosch told The Associated Press on Thursday night. "But the bigger picture is, 'Why are they doing this?' "Whoever had these photos had them for 24 years. I don't understand why they would do this now. It must be some kind of message." Comment: More evidence of Israeli manipulation and blackmailing of American politicians? Iran war not coming fast enough? Subtle messages need to be sent to certain parties with very unsavory skeletons in their closets?
