POPSU.N 184-4 to stop US embardo on Cuba This is exactly the problem with U.N. There are still all major powers making their very own decisions no matter what everyone else think. If there will be conflict betrween those powers it's noone to stop that because everyone should cooperate, not just the small ones. I don't accept the Cuban administration either but what's the good punishing regular people. It haven't change anything before and won't do it now. They must "love" America beating them to poverty.

POPSIraqi Contracts With Iran and China Concern U.S. From the article: "The expansion of ties between Iraq and Iran comes as the United States and Iran clash on nuclear issues and about what American officials have repeatedly said is Iranian support for armed groups in Iraq. American officials have charged that Iranians, through the international military wing known as the Quds Force, are particularly active in support of elite elements of the Mahdi Army, a militia largely controlled by Mr. Sadr. An American military official in Baghdad said that while he had no specific knowledge of the power plant contracts, any expansion of Iranian interests was a concern for the military here. “We are of course carefully watching Iran’s overall presence here in Iraq,” the military official said. “As you know, it’s not always as it appears. Their Quds Force routinely uses the cover of a business to mask their real purpose as an intelligence operative.” Much like the CIA....

POPSMutiny among USA Generals? Revolt over Iran? "KOLKO: Many in the US military think Bush and Cheney are out of control. They are rebelling against Bush and Cheney. Washington Post reporter Dana Priest recently said in an interview that she believed the US military would revolt and refuse to fly missions against Iran if the White House issued such orders. "CENTCOM commander Admiral Fallon reportedly thwarted Cheney's wish to sent a third additional aircraft carrier to the Persian Gulf. One paper wrote that he "vowed privately there would be no war against Iran as long as he was chief of CENTCOM." "Lt. Gen. Wright, in charge of US forces in Japan, told AP last week that the Iraq war had weakened American forces in the face of any potential conflict with China. He was quoted as saying, "Are we in trouble? It depends on the scenario. But you have to be concerned about the small number of our forces and the age of our forces." ...Spiegel Mutiny in the ranks - at the top!!!

POPSBush declines from Kioto again Bush seems to have his very own idea about bad policy against all the other countries (except oil producers). Volutary emission reduction is not going to lead anywhere because it's better for economy to keep polluting in a short interval. What do these people think, the wold is endless? Personally I don't understand why it's the president, just one guy, to decide about this kind of things. Bush has his oil industry supporters or someone to tell him what to do and it's definately no fair trade. It's our shared world we're dealing with, not just their world they can do whatever they want!

POPSTurkey to invade Iraq
A couple of things come to mind: 1. Since we can't stop the war we might as well enjoy it's interesting twists and turns. 2. The USA politicians and TV Talking Heads act as if they are God and omnipotently declaring: 'Let's take out Iran." -- "Not an invasion but surgical strikes," etc. -- but there are other forces and factors involved 3. Much like Vietnam the war may finally end by the North Vietnamese army overrunning Saigon in 1975 and that was when finally the last USA troops were out. It seems when an enemy has invaded one of your outposts or cities it doesn't take as long to get out as current politicians suggest. So now we are bombarded with all the claims and complaints of Iran 'killing Americans,' (or having nuclear weapons)...soon we can have a Turkish invasion. The terrorist and anti-American forces in Saudia Arabia will keep pouring in funds...Israel can come in and blow something up. The fun has just begun. Meanwhile, the USA can control it's own borders

POPSPravda: USS Liberty, USSR Nuclear Sub and 9/11 "The Soviet submarine K-172 under the command of Nikolay Shashkov armed with missiles and nuclear warheads was at the very same moment in the Bay of Sidre. The submarine received instructions to surface and deliver a blow against the Israeli coast if the Americans landed troops on Syrian shores. The submarine had eight nuclear missiles on board. However, as we know the Israeli coast means the whole sate of Israel stretched along the sea. Israel would have been completely destroyed if such blows were delivered by the Soviet submarine." "I wrote about Nikolay Shashkov; the publication was called “The Man Who Was to Destroy Israel.” The publication produced a strong response from society. I received inquiries from the Israeli Embassy, and many journalists wanted just to see the man who was to liquidate the Israeli state."

POPSIsrael admits air strike on Syria I believe I have the answer. Only recently Russia sold a new missile defence system to Iran and Syria. If the U.S. is going to invade Iran, they need to identify the capabilities of this new missile system. It is easier to strike Syria and build up a picture of what they are facing, this is good military sense. But bad news for the world if it is true. The U.S. military always softens up it's target with air strikes, I believe around or after Christmas it is going to kick off.

POPSFlourishing racism at internet's video galleries Check out this "conversation". I was quite furious visiting Break.com last time. It is well known fact most people in those websites are moron but this was some kind of a record I think. This video was just two guys falling off motorcycle and this is how American people react?!? The trend of the day seems to be "best arab is dead arab" and that's it!

POPSGrand Illusion!!! The Mystery Crash
courtesy of Luxman, Luxenbourg. Hunt the Boeing! And test your perceptions! As everyone knows, on 11 September, less than an hour after the attack on the World Trade Centre, an airplane collided with the Pentagon. The Associated Press first reported that a booby-trapped truck had caused the explosion. The Pentagon quickly denied this. The official US government version of events still holds. Here's a little game for you: Take a look at these photographs and try to find evidence to corroborate the official version. It's up to you to Hunt the Boeing! Did you find the Boeing? Can you still defend the official version of events? > Well done! Remember to get in touch with master of illusion, David Copperfield. He'll be glad to hear from you! You found the official version lacking in something (like a Boeing, for example): > If you begin to question whether a Boeing really did crash on the Pentagon then, no doubt, you'll be wondering what happened to the aircraft that disappeared

POPSWhat the UK REALLY thinks. Warning! Must have a sense of Humour! It is the same idiot now as then. It's a case of the emperor has NO CLOTHS. He never had! It's the same COWARD that is c-in-c now as then. If someone was smart they would stop digging that hole deeper. If they were smart?! I can now say anything, ANYTHING derogatory about AWOL himself and NO ONE will be defending him - except the odd crackpot or religious nut, who still chooses to believe WMDs were in Iraq before the ILLEGAL INVASION. They feel they must, to justify all the dead Americans and Iraqi. What did he say again? "Bring it on". How DEEP will his cave be after 2008, if he doesn't create another 911??? How long before he's boozed up and legless. He's a comic now, imagine him with Jack Daniels! How deep is that hole now? Go on, throw yourself on the mercy of the court. We have a heart, even if...

POPSGeorge's Legacy: Broken Bodies, Broken Countries. pt1 Shocking but not the most shocking. More shocking is that their commander-in-chip is a coward and deserter. He was AWOL more than 30 days during war. Ironic that the warmonger president, never served but killed more Americans than any other since Vietnam.

POPSWhite House efforts to cover-up lies leading US into war admitted.
As Bush says here: "We should move on." He should move on to honor his promise to fire anyone who leaked CIA operative's name (i.ie. Cheney and Rove). We should also "move on," to impeachments since this is an admission of betraying one of one's own agents and endangering contacts and work of this CIA operative. We should "move on," to now continuing the Fitzgerald investigation : The crime of revealing the identity of a covert CIA agent did happen. Bush just admitted it. Note: She WAS a covert CIA agent. We should also "move on," to war crime trials since all this involved trying to cover-up the use of deliberately fabricated information (used in the State of the Nation) to mislead and mobilize our nation into a false and misdirected war for the beneift only of special interests and other nations, resulting in the death of approx. 3,600 USA troops, waste of billions, murder and destruction of a nation. This false claim war claims Saddam was trying to buy uranium

POPSMilitary spendin in USA totally AXAGGERATING! Sorry about the bad lines on the first chart. The right numbers are $420.7 billions, 43% etc. of course. Check the source website for better information overall. This is sad but true. One nation on earth uses ten times more money on weapons than any other. Why is that? This definately raises up some guestions about morality of USA. Can USA archieve peace and stability with this kind of agency? I think no!

POPSBaghdad death-squad killings on the rise One of the major objectives of the surge was to end, or at least reduce, killings by death squads in the capital. However, since the surge began, the killings unfortunately seem to be increasing instead. Northern MNF commander Mixon says he needs more troops than he's getting.
