POPSFrance in Turmoil Over ''AngolaGate'' Scandal It all began with Richard Nixon, former murky President of USA and his Watergate. Today the media has created another in France: Angolagate. How cruel it is to stoke up a war for profit while people are killed in 1000s? Do these war mongers think of the poor innocents or simply concentrate on their money alone?

POPSKnife Crime Is the Home Secretary still on drugs? her action on a weekend - not yet over- when seven people are murdered - is to take perpetrators into over worker casualty units to see the consequences of their handy work. Why not give the a 'I stabbed the innocent bastard' medal. Perhaps another action would be to remove these misled children and put them into Social Homes, like that under investigation in the Channel Islands, or those condemned in Wales...

POPSIran Supplying Equipment To Taliban To Fight British Evidence found by UK special forces is understood to concern the supply of the same bomb-making equipment Iran provides to insurgents in Iraq, namely components for explosively formed projectiles, or EFPs. It is not clear whether the bomb that last week killed four British SAS reservists in Helmand province was such a device, although British military commanders fear that increasing Iranian involvement in Afghanistan may render irrelevant attempts to increase the number of armoured vehicles in the conflict. Yesterday four coalition soldiers were killed by a bomb in the province of Kandahar. Meanwhile, as investigations continue into the use of Snatch Land Rovers in southern Afghanistan in which the four UK troops died last week, new figures obtained by The Observer reveal that more than 700 armoured vehicles that could be deployed to protect British personnel in Helmand are out of action.

POPS"No more Iraq occupation funding." How much longer must this illegal, extortionate war in Iraq go on? There has been so much damage caused by this war ranging from the loss of influence to the United States of America, around the world, to the endless casualties of Iraqi citizens. Totals (Especially from the Pro-war, Pro-neocons) are estimated at 84,050 to 91,713 but these figures, although quite shocking, are not the true estimate. A study in 2006 assesses the loss of life at over 655,000 Iraqis or more than 500 people a day (A report, which of course, President Bush does not consider credible.). That would mean, every single family most likely, has suffered a loss in this war. Natural disasters that are inundating the news today, such as in Myanmar, . And China's death toll from last week’s earthquake ... Alarming numbers but still dwarfed by the Iraqi totals.

POPSGlaciers melting at an 'alarming' rate There are figures which show the current melt rates, and they say there is no end in sight, but the end will come when there is no glacier left to melt. people that rely on glaciers for water, will have to find it somewhere else. There is no doubt, wherever they get it, it will be expensive.

POPSBritain's 'Secret Tax System' For Society's Elite The fact that anyone's tax or personal information might be insecure is appalling, but I'm not too surprised by the fact that there are two groups. It makes sense to work on the basis that some people's data will always be more valuable than others - because of potential for abuse - and theoretically, requires greater protection.

POPSCONAN Series 1 One hero towers above all others in the Hyborian world. Black-haired, sullen-eyed, with gigantic melancholies, this is Conan. Barbarian, thief, pirate, raider, mercenary, hero --- but above all, a Cimmerian! The son of a village blacksmith in the grim gray hills of Cimmeria, Conan honed his strength and prowess by hunting the wild mountain beasts and competing with the other boys in his tribe. At age 15, already standing 6 feet and weighing 180 pounds though still not fully grown, Conan received his baptism of battle as part of a host of Cimmerian clans that attacked the garrison settlement of Venarium, an Aquilonian outpost encroaching on Cimmerian lands.
