POPSBlushing Blair's Bitch Belatedly Bits Bush Butt! Yes look, he does look like a real cowboy. Here a 'real cowboy' is a lower form of life than a second hand car sales person. Cowboys over here are totally disreputable door-to-door shyster (A shyster is someone who acts in a disreputable, unethical or unscrupulous way or a con artist. While now applied in a non-ethnic-specific sense, it originated as a reference to disreputable Jxxish businessmen and criminals.) Unusual given his pro-Nazi past. Bet he's practising riding off into the sunset, pursued by a real posse for his war crimes. Mao and Stalin escaped. Will Bush? I hear he never really learnt how to ride a horse. Some Texan!

POPSAmerican Memories. B&W pics During the height of the movement, from 1967 to 1973, photographer Stephen Shames had unprecedented access to the organization and captured not only its public face—street demonstrations, protests, and militant posturing—but also unscripted behind-the-scenes moments, from private meetings held in the Party headquarters, to Bobby Seale at work on his mayoral campaign in Oakland. The Black Panthers (Aperture, October 2006) brings together for the first time a remarkable collection of never-before-published images from Shames’s archive. This illuminating volume reveals how Shames’s insider status enabled him to create an uncommonly nuanced portrait of this dynamic social movement, during one of the most tumultuous periods in U.S. history. Released on the occasion of the Party’s fortieth anniversary, The Black Panthers collectively conveys an electrifying visual history of one of America’s most important social movements.

POPSPortrait of Courage: Irena Sendler From the article: "In 1943, she was captured by the Nazis and tortured but refused to tell her captors who her co-conspirators were or where the bottles were buried. She also resisted in other ways. According to Felt, when Sendler worked in the prison laundry, she and her co-workers made holes in the German soldiers' underwear. When the officers discovered what they had done, they lined up all the women and shot every other one. It was just one of many close calls for Sendler."

POPSOne Great Man, one good one, one Ok. One shite GULLIBILITY: "The art of swallowing the belief that one side in a two party kleplocracy is not going to screw you over like a drunken virgin at a Roman orgy" So, if you'll swallow shit(e) you get a shite runt like George, who has disgraced the Bush click forever. He's in his own unique group with Stalin and Mao in the number of deaths he is personally responsible for. Now will you elect another man killer, or a female who wants to, or another man of peace - black.

POPSWhen will they ever Learn, when will they ever learn, when will they ever learn
Previously, I've offered the Bush gang some undeserved advice. It was simple and even more obvious with time. Whatever instinct they have to do something, then don't. Do the opposite or do nothing. Everything they touch turns to dust. Just a few: Iraq, Afghanistan, Guantanamo, Abu Ghraib, Iran, Venezuela, Bolivia, Cuba, waterboarding, rendition, POWs, Dollar, Oil, Economy, Hamas, Gaza, West Bank, Katrina, civil rights, prisons, racism, FEAR. Only one state has prospered and at the US expense. It's economy roars ahead based on false security and terrorism. Iraq's government partly rules Baghdad's Green Zone. Now Lebanon's government may in time rule a Beirut Green Zone. Only Israel benefits. Bush ignored the democratically elected Hamas in Gaza. Then the US provoked a Hamas military takeover. Why? So Israel could practice judicial assassination and Hamas wouldn't talk peace? Never. And when Hamas through Carter offered the peace to the Zionists? The lamest excuse ever?

POPS"To Hell or to Connaught" Ethnic Cleansing 17th Century style
The Irish recognise modern day ethnic cleansing because we have a long tradition of real ethnic cleansing like as practices by the Zionist on the modern Irish, the Palestinians. Ours is no false myth either. Like our Famine, detailed records are there for all to see. We were dragged into the English Civil War. Being neutral was as guilty as being on the King's side. We were required to give up our faith to have ant chance of retaining residence. This is not to rehash history or beat up on the bad Brits as most good Brits have Irish blood somewhere. It's to indicated that the 'victim' race have by no means a right to their beloved victimhood. We Irish have risen from the equal of black slaves to our present elevated position when we gave up the begging bowl and stood tall. 60 years of independence has made the Zionists the least loved nation on earth. Only what Bush did with the World's goodwill for the USA post 9/11 is on a par with what Israel has achieved with its reputation i

POPS'bizarre mix of mammal, bird and reptile, with very complex sexuality' The fact that the animal has five X and five Y chromosomes is "the weirdest thing about a very weird animal," said Ewan Birney, a co-author on the paper, based at the European Bioinformatics Institute, near Cambridge. "In theory it means there are 25 possible sexes, though in practice that doesn't happen."

POPSOldies Remember: One Man's Sacrifice of Fame. I know I'd never have had the 'balls'. If he had known how badly America would treat him subsequently, I doubt if he would done it so blatantly either. What sacrifice! Yes, with time America forgave. Just like it forgave THE elite sportsman of the 20th century, ALI. He too had to suffer first for his colour. Must they first become the heroes of the World before being heroes in America? "Back home he were subject to abuse and he and his families received death threats. Smith continued in athletics, going on to play American football with the Cincinnati Bengals, before becoming an assistant professor of Physical Education at Oberlin College. In 1995 he went on to help coach the US team at the World Indoor Championships at Barcelona. In 1999 he was awarded a Sportsman of the Millennium award. He is now a public speaker. ... Wikipedia

POPSBritish Jews won't Celebrate Zionism On the eve of Holocaust Remembrance Day and a week before Israel marks its 60th Independence Day, a group of over 100 British Jews comprised of well-known academics, writers, actors and other public figures has launched a scathing attack against the Jewish state. ...Ynet True Jews now accused as anti-Semitic!!!

POPSHolocaust Retribution to finance Zionism. "Zionists used the Holocaust in order to attain reparations, the Holocaust doesn’t interest them. They use the topic of the Holocaust cynically by exploiting it as a tool with which to establish a country and receive money, but nothing more than that.”

POPSChildren of Mansouri Remembered. "In all, six people were killed, including Abbas Jiha's wife, Mona, and three of his children. Overwhelmed with grief, he tore at the vehicle with his bare hands, soon followed by the U.N. Fijian troops from the checkpoint. The Israeli helicopter remained in the sky over UN Checkpoint 1-23 for another five minutes. Then it flew away. ...

POPSDoes it Undo the Christian and Muslims, too? If it proves that the Exodus is a MYTH then so is the bible. Then so is Christianity and the Muslim faith. And they all know it. Now its not about faith. It's about hoax!!! They should be in court as crooks but the courts too have their vested interest. Think of it as proving to children that there is a Father Christmas. Ok, no one is defrauded or cheated like these religions founded on myth not faith. And all this knowledge arose from attempting to prove that the European Jews had some right to the land of Israel. No matter how creative they have been, all their archaeology efforts have proven is the opposite to their theory. The Zionist have succeeded in one thing. Bringing archaeology into disrepute! And religion!

POPSSlavery By Another Name I saw Douglas Blackmon, Wall Street Journal reporter and author of "Slavery by Another Name", on the Tavis Smiley Show tonight. I had never before heard about neo-slavery. According to Blackmon, the South was culpable; the North was complicit. Modern companies, including US Steel, profited. The system didn't come to an end until the 1940s, "partly due to fears of enemy propaganda about American racial abuse at the beginning of World War II." 13th Amendment be damned, this sale of "convicts" to private enterprises to pay of "debts" was perfectly legal until 1951.

POPSThe YANKS Deserved THANKS. A prosperous Ireland provides the model of how peace should be done without invasion or regime change. What worked. Essentially your stick was bigger than the UK stick. Clinton's assertion that Northern Ireland could no longer be treated as internal only and so achieved justice and civil right for ALL in the North and not just the privileged that controlled the apartheid statelet. We Irish don't do bullshit. Those words of out PM were meant, truly. Thanks America on behalf of the 40 million Irish-Americans and the millions back here.

POPSBefore & Now! Leave? BEFORE: free healthcare, free education, better electricity and water services, security of law and order INVASION: No health, little education, power by the hour, some water, no law, no order. US; 4,000 dead military plus 10s of 1,000 of broken in mind and body. Iraq; 100,000 dead, displaced? Both America and Iraq broken for how long? Why again? WMD? Oil? Israel? Democracy? Regime change? Why not a Mossad assassins bullet if Saddam was ever the problem? CIA had no qualms before although Castro shows their incompetence at illegal regime change.

POPSCheeney/Zionist Plan for Nuclear Against Iran! "Of the many American illusions and delusions surrounding this war, the Administration's calculations with respect to Iran were among the most wildly off base. Instead of generating a liberal, secular democracy whose reverberations would drive out Iran's clerical oligarchs, the disastrous Bush policies fostered a sectarian Iraq that has helped empower Iranian hardliners. Rather than serving as an anchor for a new era of stability and American preeminence in the Persian Gulf, the new Iraq represents a strategic black hole, bleeding Washington of military resources and political influence while extending Iran's primacy among its neighbours." ...

POPSBush: No more Islamist jihads. Obliterated are jihadists, mujahideen, Islamofascist. So no more "glamorising terrorism, or imbues terrorists with religious authority they do not have and so damaging relations with Muslims around the world." Pity he didn't realize this BEFORE he sullied America's name in the Muslim world. Bit late now to smell the grass. You might expect to know what you should call your Muslim friends now. Well 'the memo warns: "Don't compromise our credibility" by using words and phrases that may ascribe benign motives to terrorists' but no useful info for the few neocon clippers. I expect it'll be back to swiftboating now.

POPSHugo's Friend, former Bishop is New President in South America!
Lugo calls himself an independent and has steered clear of Latin America's more radical leftwing leaders, such as Venezuela's Hugo Chávez and Evo Morales in Bolivia. But he is seen as a likely ally of moderate leftist presidents in the region. Lugo, nicknamed the "bishop of the poor", was confident Paraguayans would elect him in the hope of seeing "a different country", likening himself to a David fighting a "monstrous Goliath". The Colorado party has stayed in power by means of democracy and dictatorship, ruling even longer than Cuba's Communist party. Eight months ago, Lugo welded unions, Indians and poor farmers into a coalition with the main opposition party to form the Patriotic Alliance for Change. Many ordinary Paraguayans had become fed up of what they saw as a corrupt establishment, that failed to safeguard the poorest in a country landlocked by wealthier neighbours Argentina and Brazil, and economically dependent on its agricultural and hydroelectric power exports.

POPSZionist Prove Carter Correct about Israeli Apartheid while putting his life in Danger! Is this a case of the Scorpion and Frog. Would the Zionist always bit the hand that feeds it? Would they always revert to type and display their fascist Apartheid policy. Or are they just ungrateful curs that are ungracious as host to the former president of the United States? Were they willing to put his life in danger in a war zone by refusing the request from US agents charged with guarding Carter. Such disrespect for America has not been shown since the Israeli IAF attacked USS Liberty, murdering 33 US servicemen.

POPS60th Anniversary of Deir Yassein massacre by Israeli PM I knew exactly what he was getting at by citing Deir Yassein. In the progressive, “Labor” Zionist movement of which Habonim was a part, we had long recognized the 1948 massacre of up to 250 Arab men, women and children in the village near Jerusalem as an ugly stain on the “purity of arms” myth in which we had always cloaked violence from Israeli side. We knew about Deir Yassein, but we could dissociate ourselves from it, or so we imagined, because it had been carried out not by the Haganah of Ben Gurion, but by an Irgun unit led by Menahem Begin. And as far as we ardent young Zionists of the left were concerned, Begin, who by then was Prime Minister of Israel, was nothing but a fascist thug and terrorist — hell, even Ben Gurion detested the man and condemned the Deir Yassein killings. ...TonyKaron

POPSand China is Worse than this? What a perversion of justice. And all for ONE trial with a 9 month sentence so far. Out of nearly 700 POWs there may be only 80 cases after all the torture that they will even bring to their kangaroo court show trail. What a system. What an advert for American 'democracy'. Were the Nazis as unjust as this never mind China. I know one thing for absolute certainty; one country is moving forward while the other is racing backwards. Most countries make at least a pretence at dispensing justice to its foes while Bush appears to intend to deliberately offend normal basic standards and to goad even more terrorism to justify his misnomer 'War on Terror'.
