POPSUSA: Drowning in Pretend Patriotism? Any doubts as to this later governing impulse of our imperial ambitions were shattered with the recent news that U.S. advisers to our puppet government in the Green Zone of occupied Iraq have worked out agreements for American oil companies to gain control of Iraqi oil fields. But, then again, what did we expect when we elected a Texas oil hustler, and a failed one at that , to be our president? ... AlterNet

POPSWhen Journalist LIE, Innocence Dies! Rarely since the WW2 has a people been so vilified as the Palestinians. Rarely has a people been so frequently excused and placated as the Israelis. Israeli embassies are now buttonholing editors around the world, saying that it's not fair to call Israel's PM "hard-line". And the reporters are falling into line. ... R Fisk I think he should know.

POPSReport: Bush LIED "reduced, marginalised, or mischaracterised" Nothing new. Watch now as his lackeys discover that they have some backbone, sadly missing for years, as the lame duck fills his days sticking his greasy fingers in all the spouting dikes. Tricky Dick had nothing on this bastard. A world at war, the dollar sinking, 4,000 dead US soldier to a coward c-in-c, chaotic climate, worst recession in 50 years, FEAR endemic, civil rights shot to hell, Gitmo, torture, rendition, kangaroo courts, WMD and on and on synonymous with the United States. One million Russians couldn't damage America to the extent that Bush has. A fresh start is your only salvation! Tricky was an angle in comparison. Why isn't Bush - the bushwhacker - impeached. Why is the tail still wagging the dog?

POPSCatastrophe. - Bush? Iraq? Palestine? Israel? Well, he's being wrong on everything for 7 years, why should he change now? Why does this simple statement not penetrate the brains of those fanatics that followed his every word only to find they were lying deceitful devil words? Why should those that no longer believe in WMD for their service persons deaths, still cling to his crap about Iran, Hamas, Hizbollah etc. When was he truthful? Is he the devil? Sorry if I've asked difficult questions of the very few who are not used to thinking for themselves. Where can they look now that the emperor has NO clothes al all. POW McCain? A WOMAN? A BLACK? Ask the pastor who said Bush? Mental meltdown! Brain seizure from lack of use!

POPSPalestine: A Letter to the Peace Movement 
Thousands of Palestinians are imprisoned in Israeli detention centers where there is reported use of torture. People die at Israeli checkpoints because they cannot get to medical facilities. Palestinians are being denied water, food and medical supplies. Palestinians have to endure continual attacks by jets, helicopters and drones used for assassinations (which are illegal by international law) that also kill many civilians. According to Chris Hedges (http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article19127.htm), since 2000, 1033 Israelis have died and 4,437 Palestinian have died from this conflict. 119 of these deaths were Israeli children and 971 have been Palestinian children. All these deaths are a waste of life, but these numbers also show that the fault is not equal between the Israelis and Palestinians. The fault lies with the aggressor and the occupier. When people live under a brutal occupation, have their lands stolen, their houses destroyed, orchards wiped out by bulldozers

POPSThe Torture Memo When lawyers in private practice mess up, they face serious jeopardy. They can be fired, sued for malpractice, disbarred or prosecuted. Yoo and Bybee face no such risks. The President won't protest. He got what he wanted. And while a state disciplinary body can investigate, that is unlikely without Justice Department help.

POPSSettlers LIES Revealed in Court:1st Time Revealed for the first time,in court, how for the settlers conspire with the Council and the army, IDF, to keep the Arabs off their land for 3 years while the settlers worked it unimpeded.. After the 3 years the Arabs lose their land and its then signed by the state to the settlers. There was always knowledge of this but it never could be proved. Now a Council official has given evidence in court. This happened then Arabs first demonstrated to the court how the IDF kept Arabs off their land even after the court gave clear direction. Personally, given the past record, I cannot see this irrefutable evidence being allowed as the whole rotten system would tumble if they could not steal the Arab land

POPSBush claims no recession. We're Fu@ked After 7 years of LIES and DECEPTION, who would you believe? Could he not be right just for once? Could he not say, just to save us all who need a recession like a month in Iraq, that there is a recession there is one. Then when he's wrong as usual, we can all be Ok! Might work. Can't be worse than now. Could someone not stop him popping up at every microphone that there is? It's past embarrassing.

POPSRUBBISH! Don't Read. More LIES. Apocalyptic Crap. "Washington is still negotiating with Poland and the Czech Republic over the proposed "third site" - after Alaska and California - for the system. The plan is for 10 interceptor missiles to be based in Poland and a long-range "X-band" radar similar to that at Fylingdales to be based in the Czech Republic. US officials today described Russian objections to the plan as "geopolitical" which in the long run would amount to "much ado about nothing". There remains widespread scepticism in Nato about Washington's claims regarding the need and capability of a missile defence system and the intentions of the Iranians, alliance officials admitted today. There is concern in particular about who would control and decide the firing of anti-missile interceptors situated in Europe. The issue will be on the agenda of the NATO summit in Bucharest in early April. ...Guardian

POPS"More Lies From The Bush Fascists" Global Research "Bush and his director of National Intelligence, Mike McConnell, are telling the American people that an unaccountable executive branch is necessary for their protection. Without the Protect America Act, Bush and McConnell claim, the executive branch will not be able to spy on terrorists, and we will all be blown up. Terrorists can only be stopped, Bush says, if Bush has the right to spy on everyone without any oversight by courts."
