Palestinians responded by firing mortars into Israel’s Eshkol Regional Council. Israel responded by attacking the Khan Younis (Khan Yunis or Khan Yunnis) refugee camp in Gaza Strip.
“An ISAF service member died following an improvised explosive device attack in southern Afghanistan today.”-ISAF statement
March 29, 2012, another U.S./NATO/ISAF soldier killed by a roadside mine. And yet again, ISAF officials refuse to give the location of the incident, or which country the soldier was from.
Afghan government officials say on March 28, their military and police forces engaged in major battles with Mujahideen in Badakshan, Kabul, Kunar, Laghman, Kunduz, Faryab, Helmand, Uruzgan, Ghazni and Paktia provinces.
They claim to have killed more than 47, and captured at least six anti-government militants.
In Farah Province, Afghan officials claim a NATO supply convoy was hit hard by a Mujahideen ambush, the fighting lasted three hours: “The fighting was intense and we sent in extra forces.”-Najibullah Najibi, Afghan army spokesman
In that province Afghan officials claim more than 30 militants were killed and 10 were wounded. Mujahideen claim they killed 40 Afghan Security Forces.
“I have today, upon request from Sten Tolgfors, decided to relieve him of his duties.”-Fredrik Reinfeldt, Prime Minister of Sweden
Tolgfors resigned after Sweden’s public radio revealed that the Defense Ministry has been secretly working with Saudi Arabia, to build weapons factories, since 2007.
The secret plan is called Project Simoom. In 2009 the project was turned over to a private company called SSTI. Some reports say SSTI is just a front company created by the Swedish Defense Ministry, but there is a government contractor in the United States called SSTI (Simulation Systems Technologies Incorporated) which specializes in U.S. Navy combat computer systems.
Sweden is not a democratic republic, it is a monarchy with connections to the Royal family in the United Kingdom.
Saudi Arabia is not a democratic republic, it is a monarchy, created with the help of the Royal family in the United Kingdom.
The dominant religion in Saudi Arabia are the Wahab, and the Salafi, interpretations of Sunni Islam. The Royal family of Saudi Arabia is related to Muhammad ibn ʿAbd al-Wahhab, by marriage to his descendants. He is the founder of Wahhabism.
The United States created the terrorist group Al Qaeda, and those people recruited to al Qaeda are Wahhabis, or Salafis, mainly from Saudi Arabia.
Recently U.S. President Barack Obama revealed hat the United States and the United Kingdom are merging their militaries, and military industries.
Then just days after, Obama quietly issued the closest thing to a declaration of Martial Law yet. It’s basically a Total War declaration, stating that all aspects of U.S. life will focus on supporting the military industry.
People must realize that what’s going on is that the West, and its allies, are still controlled by monarchies, directly by the big Royal family in the United Kingdom.
Look at the countries that the West considers a threat, many are actually democratic republics (like Iran is), or at least anti-monarchy regimes (like Iraq and Lybia were).
Why is the West so afraid of Islam (that is, Islamic countries not controlled by monarchies)? Because Islam, in general, is anti-monarchy, it is a ‘Power to the People’ religion! Islam is also anti-Western style capitalism. Specifically, most Western financial institutions are illegal under Islam, because Western banks tend to oppress the people! In other words the Muslim World that is not controlled by monarchists (like Western backed Saudi Arabia and Jordan) will not play by the rules of the Western Monarchies!
U.S./NATO/ISAF officials said that on the morning of March 27, a NATO soldier was killed after stepping on a mine (aka roadside bomb, IED) in southern Afghanistan. They did not give the exact location or what country the NATO soldier was from.
ISAF and Afghan government forces claim to have killed and captured more allies of the Mujahideen. Those foreign fighters are coming from Uzbekistan.
The latest firefight took place on March 26, 2012, in Faryab Province. ISAF officials say they were ambushed by the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan (IMU) while on patrol with Afghan forces. ISAF did not indicate if they suffered casualties, but said they killed or captured several IMU troops.
Meanwhile, U.S./NATO/ISAF and Afghan Security officials say in the past 24 hours they’ve killed at least 14 Mujahideen. The battles took place in Kabul, Nangarhar, Faryab, Kandahar, Helmand, Nimroz, Zabul, Ghazni and Paktia provinces.
On the night of March 26, a NATO fuel supply convoy was ambushed in Farah Province. The convoy was operated by a private security company. Five of the security company’s employees were killed, they were Afghans.
“There are just too many parties who have real interests that Gaddafi doesn’t talk, that he should be silenced forever.”-Mahmoud Jibril, former Interim Prime Minister Libyan NTC
In an exclusive interview with Russia Today, Jibril said Gaddafi was not killed under NTC orders, they wanted him alive. He says it was Western Powers (United States and European Union) that wanted him dead.
Jibril even said: “I would love to know who was behind [Gaddafi’s] killing.”
Those who killed Gaddafi even used their cell phones to record video of their torture and finally killing of Gaddafi. It was obviously meant to send a message (as was the cell phone video of Saddam Hussein’s ridicule before he was executed).
Jibril says the proof that the war in Libya was not about oil, but about killing Gaddafi, is the fact that Europe was getting oil while Gaddafi was in power. This is backed up by Jibril’s belief that Western Powers suddenly ignored Libya once Gaddafi was killed: “What I am saying is that after the regime fell down [Gaddafi killed] most of the Western countries felt that ‘mission has been accomplished’…we need the help to re-establish our national army…to re-establish our police…and prepare the country for elections…unfortunately the kind of assistance provided by our potential friends…are not a priority for the time being.”
March, 26, 2012, several U.S./NATO/ISAF troops being killed by Afghan government forces, or police officers!
British media reporting at least two British troops killed by a man who “tricked” his way onto a British base in Helmand Province. He was killed by U.K. troops.
Afghan officials say the man traveled from Nangarhar Province, and had been in the Afghan army for 4 years.
A third ISAF troop, from the U.S., was killed by a local police officer at a police checkpoint in Paktika Province.
Daniel Cameron, Argentina’s Energy Secretary, is proposing to raise the price of Argentine oil exports to $63 per barrel. Currently Argentina sells their oil at $42 per barrel.
Decades ago the Argentine government froze their export oil prices. Now oil production is way down, because it’s not worth it to the Argentine oil companies.
To make the economic situation worse, Argentina imports most of its refined fuel, and that’s been going up, in price as well as volume. Cameron wants to increase their export oil prices to offset the growing demand and cost of imported fuel, and to build up reserve funds in Argentina’s Central Bank.
The Australian airline Quantas, will be using a mix of kerosene based jet fuel, and used cooking oil.
Two of their airliners will be using the mixed fuel. It’s being supplied by a Dutch company called SkyNRG.
Don’t be too concerned, the turbine (jet engine) is a glorified diesel engine. In 1893 Rudolph Diesel designed the diesel engine specifically to run on peanut, or vegetable oil. He succeed, however he was sued by Rockefeller’s Standard Oil.
Today’s diesel fuel is actually Petrodiesel, meaning fuel for diesel engines made from petroleum, not plant oils.
So, turbines and piston diesel engines should run fine on cooking oil, unless they were specifically made to run on Petrodiesel only (and don’t forget the bogus U.S. EPA rules that force you to use Petrodiesel in your diesel powered vehicle).
Virgin Airways Australia is also about to run their airliners on plant based fuels. The fuel will be based on a type of Eucalyptus, called a Mallee tree in Western Australia.
China Petroleum and Chemical Corporation (Sinopec) will increase oil production and natural gas extraction. This is partly because their profits dropped by 23% in their fourth business quarter.
The drop in profits came as corporate officials tried to shift from producing fuel, to buying fuel from other refiners. Officials said Sinopec refining operations were actually costing more than refiners in other countries.
Sinopec is also exploring possible shale oil in western China, which could rival shale oil production in the United States.
“The President’s counter terrorism campaign is about stealth power, rather than hard power or soft power. He is a Jekyll and Hyde president; he is the king of covert because there are not many military options available now.”-Laura Blumenfeld, German Marshall Fund
On March 25, 2012, U.S. President Barack Obama was labeled “Jekyll and Hyde”, at the annual Brussels Forum. Analyst say Obama has increased the use of terror drones in order to save money!
Pakistan’s President says Parliamentary demands that the U.S. stop using terror drones against Pakistan, is a sign of democracy.
On March 25, President Asif Ali Zardari met with Marc Grossman, Special U.S. Representative on Afghanistan and Pakistan. Zandari said the U.S. had to respect the demands of the Pakistani members of parliament.
Zandari also brought up drug trafficking, which has increased ever since the United States started the so called War on Terror.
Earlier in the week, U.S. Senator Joe Libierman and Senator Dianne Feinstein refused demands from Afghan leaders, who’re calling for a stop to terror drone strikes in their country.
“Drone strikes are critically important to America’s national security. So obviously, I do not believe they should stop.”-Joe Libierman, Senator for Connecticut
“I think the key is whether Pakistan will go into North Waziristan and other places and take out those terrorist leaders who are essentially fueling and leading attacks against our troops in Afghanistan.”-Dianne Feinstein, Senator for California
In the Philippines the government there is denying that the U.S. is using terror drones to help the Philippine government fight mujahideen in the southern islands: “They are here as advisers. They are here as trainers. They can not participate in combat operations.”-Benigno Aquino, President of Philippines
The United States began sending troops back to the Philippines ever since the beginning of the War on Terror. In the past two years U.S. troop numbers have increased, and could actually be due to the growing tensions over the oil rich South China Sea (especially in an area called Reed Bank).
While the Philippines says no terror drones are being used there, they admit helping the United States, and the Malaysian government launch air strikes against mujahideen in Malaysia.
March 22, 2012, The Associated Press reported that U.S. Navy ships shelled the city of Zinjibar, in the southern Yemeni province of Abyan. USN officials claim they were attacking “al-Qaeda” forces. 29 people were killed.
Reports say the USN shelling was done over a 24 hour period. However, other Western media sources say the U.S. Navy is now denying they attacked the city of Zinjibar.
March 24, 2012, Chinese media reporting that Yemeni Mujahideen have taken control of the city of Azzan in Shabwa Province. An unnamed city official says most of the Mujahideen are foreigners, but are supported by residents: “Some local residents are from the al Qaeda wing and accept the terrorists to enter their town without any resistance.”
The fighters are known as Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula.
The current government of Yemen is still controlled by the United States. The new president was “elected” in an election that was held on such short notice that most Yemenis didn’t get to vote.
More people protesting the U.S. puppet government of Bahrain have been killed and raped by police, and Saudi Arabian forces.
The latest death was a woman in her fifties was killed by tear gas. Also, a 16 year old boy was found lying in the streets, unconscious, with his hands tied behind his back and his pants pulled down.
Locals say Saudi forces left him there after they pulled out of the neighborhood.
“We have been receiving worrying reports of the disproportionate use of force by Bahraini security forces, including the excessive use of tear gas, the use of birdshot pellets and rubber bullets.”-Rupert Colville, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights
On March 23, 2012, Police attacked the funeral procession for the woman who died from tear gas. Teenagers responded to the police with a challenge: “Come and fight hand to hand, you cowards, you animals!”
By the way, the tear gas used by the Saudi and Bahraini forces is made in the United States, by a company called Combined Systems.
At the end of 2011, Physicians for Human Rights tested some of the tear gas and found that it “…may be using unidentified chemical agents…”
Bahrain is home to the U.S. Navy’s 5th Fleet.
March 24, 2012, International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) announced that militants attacked a NATO/ISAF base somewhere in western Afghanistan.
ISAF refused to give any more details, but, the Italian government admitted the base was manned by Italian troops. One was killed, at least five wounded. The attack took place in Farah Province. The base was hit by heavy mortar fire.
In Helmand Province, provincial intelligence (National Directorate for Security) claim they detained seven people. Yet again they claim one is a “Taliban” leader (ever wonder how many Taliban leaders there are?).
Afghan officials claim the seven men were trained in Pakistan.
In Kandahar Province, officials there claim they’ve detained two people planning a suicide bombing. Officials say the two men are Pakistani.
