POPSAhmadinejad on War and Oil Prices The truth is that Ahmadinejad is right on several accounts here, and mainly that war-mongering propaganda is driving up oil prices and devaluing the dollar. He knows that US and Israel are trying to provoke war through propaganda and drills (and covert ops), and is laughing at the game being played while preparing to defend just in case. What he says further on gas and oil prices is interesting: Ahmadinejad said the high oil prices are the result of a weak dollar and a deliberate decision by the United States and some European countries to profit from high fuel taxes. In some European countries, 70 percent of the fuel cost goes to governments as tax, he said. "So it is very clear and obvious that the market does not have a role in raising prices. There are some others that are determining the oil price for the benefit of the few, very rich people of the world,"

POPSUS Escalating Covert Ops Against Iran Here's the part that gets me: Among groups inside Iran benefiting from U.S. support is the Jundallah, also known as the Iranian People's Resistance Movement, according to former CIA officer Robert Baer. Council on Foreign Relations analyst Vali Nasr described it to Hersh as a vicious organization suspected of links to al Qaeda. We killed Hussein over imagined links to al Qaeda -- now we're one step removed from funding them.

POPSCIA Drug-Running vs. the Phony War on Drugs If there really was a "war on drugs" by U.S. government it would necessitate targeting covert ops by the CIA and other rogue operations. In addition to this article please recall that under the Taliban all poppy production was banned and punished in Afghanistan, but is now again a booming agricultural product since Afghanistan was "liberated" from those kind of laws. The U.S. government clearly says one thing to the American people (using tax dollars for Ad Council advertising too) while doing another behind their backs, even aiding and abetting the trafficking and social degeneracy of the drugs, for profit of course.

POPSSM Hersh: Remember, The Coming Wars, Now IRAN
Bush and national-security advisers have consolidated control over the military and intelligence communities’ strategic analyses and covert operations to a degree unmatched since the rise of the post-WW2 national-security state. He has an aggressive, ambitious agenda for using that control-against Iran and against targets in the ongoing war on terrorism The CIA will continue to be downgraded and increasingly serve as one government consultant with close ties to the Pentagon put it, as “facilitators” of policy. The war on terrorism would be expanded and effectively placed under the Pentagon’s control. Bush has signed a series of findings and executive orders authorizing secret commando groups and other Special Forces units to conduct covert operations against suspected terrorist targets in as many as 10 nations. “The neocons say negotiations are a bad deal,” a senior official of the IAEA. “And the only thing the Iranians understand is pressure. And that they also need to be wh

POPSAnother smart move Clearly this is a good idea. You can tell because it's endorsed by one of the key players in the Iran-Contra affair. The Reagan administration casts long shadows.
