“Peoples of the world demand the freedom for Jerusalem… People of the world demand to end the occupation of Palestine”-Global March on Al Quds
In February Afghans announced a Global March on Al Quds (aka 30th of March Operation). Today those taking part in the march have rendezvoused in Terhan, Iran.
Organizers had hoped to be in Jordan by now: “Although it was supposed to reach to Jordanian borders to join the 30th of March program but due to situation in Syria and Iraq, no land rout to the borders of Jordan was possible and available and the caravan has to follow the rout from Turkey to Lebanon”– Salim Qafouri, Iranian participants of Global March on Al Quds
Organizers stress that anyone can join the march, which is hoping to surround Jerusalem with thousands of international protesters by March 30, 2012
The next rendezvous point will be Beirut, Lebanon on March 27.
The visit of the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall, to Canada this year, is expected to cost the Canadian taxpayers more than $500,000.
The travel expenses documents were published by the Department of Canadian Heritage. The published costs do not reveal the costs by federal departments and agencies, nor do they take into consideration the security costs.
The last two “royal” visits ended up raping Canadian taxpayers of more than $1 million for each visit. The 2011 visit by Prince William and Kate Middleton cost the taxpayers more than $1.2 million. The 2010 visit by Queen Elizabeth cost taxpayers $2.8 million!
“Obviously Israel is an independent country, and they’ll make whatever decisions they make on their own based on what they think is in their national interests….If they should make that decision, then obviously the United States would take action.”-Leon Panette, U.S. Secretary of Defense
“What’s coming now is increasing evidence that everything the U.S. Army has said is a lie!”-Gordon Duff, Veterans Today, USMC Vietnam veteran
The investigation made by a Afghan Parliament group, gave details of what they found regarding the “lone” U.S. shooting genocide in Panjwaii.
The investigators say there were between 15 and 20 U.S. troops, operating in two teams (squads), being backed up by two helicopters. Two, not one, villages were attacked. They also discovered that several women were raped!
Some of the witnesses interviewed were Afghan National Security Forces.
The attacks actually took place in two villages more than 1.5 kilometers (0.9 mile) apart. All the killings took place in less than 30 minutes, which makes it impossible for one person to hit two villages! Investigators say three sizes of bullets were used. In one house eleven bodies had been piled up and burned. Women had been raped.
A U.S. Vietnam War veteran, and current veterans activist, Gordon Duff, stated that it is impossible for a single soldier to walk off a U.S. base in Afghanistan: “When you’re in a forward position [Forward Operating Base FOB, Combat OutPost COP]….to leave a base requires a vehicle…a vehicle could not have left the compound at night without more than one person in it…to open the [compound] gate would have required the mission to be allowed…a watch officer, he would have had to have given permission, so they had permission…”
Duff went on to explain that the fact that the bodies were piled and burned is also proof that more than one person did the killing: “The fires would have been caused by pouring gasoline from what we call a cherry can [not everyone calls it that, my 13 years in service no one in the units I was in called it that, although I did hear it from other units] which weighs about 50 pounds. Nobody walked with one or more cans…they’re attached to the back of our vehicles…”
“What about the innocent families who have been brutally killed? The women who have been raped, the children who have been sliced up? Your enemies were the Taliban not innocent families.”-facebook posting
The above comment got a 19 year old man arrested by Yorkshire police, and facing charges of “racially aggravated public order offence”.
“If they need something really quick and reliable, the U.S. is there to do it.”-unnamed U.S. wheat trader
It’s been revealed that despite U.S. economic sanctions against Iran, U.S. agricultural giants Cargill and Bunge will sell about 220,000 tons of U.S. wheat to Iran, by April.
Not only that, but Iran is paying more than the going Market rate for wheat, as much as $30 per metric ton more!
So what happened to the U.S. economic sanctions against Iran? Turns out money does talk, and U.S. officials are willing to turn a blind eye to big Iranian money being spent on U.S. industries: “They seem to be taking hundreds of thousands of tonnes a week. If that’s the case and we repeat 2008, if they buy seven million tonnes of wheat, this is going to be a huge deal for the [U.S.] market.“-another unnamed U.S. wheat trader
This could also be proof that there is no economic recovery taking place inside the United States, forcing officials to go back on threats against Iran.
It’s not just the agriculture industry, even U.S. medical industries and oil contractors, and even Mars candy bar corporation, are allowed to continue business with Iran. Guess why? A U.S. law created by Republicans, under the influence of Corporate America, in 2000, allows dozens of U.S. industries to be exempt from any future sanctions against Iran!!!
According to a December 2010 New York Times article, the U.S. government, under Republican President George Bush Jr, enacted a law in the year 2000 that allowed U.S. companies to not only do business with “terrorist” “rogue” states such as Iran and North Korea, but to be exempt from future sanctions!
Even Democrats complained about the Republican created law: “It’s not a bad thing to grant exceptions if it represents a conscious policy decision to give countries an incentive. But when you create loopholes like this that you can drive a Mack truck through, you are giving countries something for nothing, and they just laugh in their teeth. I think there have been abuses.”-Stuart Eizenstat, former Bill Clinton administration
North Korea has submitted all required documents to the International Civil Aviation Organization and the International Maritime Organization as part of its preparation for an April communications satellite launch. This is in keeping with international regulations.
Yet officials with the United States and Japan are literally freaking out! U.S. officials are deliberately misleading the media by calling the satellite a “missile”!
“Such a missile [what missile?] launch would pose a threat to regional security and would also be inconsistent with North Korea’s recent undertaking to refrain from long range missile launches.”-says ignoramus Victoria Nuland, U.S. State Department
Here’s the thing, North Korea agreed to halt testing of missile weapons. They did not agree to stop communications satellite launching.
Here’s what an ignorant professor said: “Why did they make a deal if two weeks later they’re going to scuttle it, without even getting anything out of it? This doesn’t make sense in the standard North Korean playbook.”-John Delury, Yonsei University
Because, moron, North Korean officials didn’t see anything wrong with a communications satellite launch, as it is not a weaponized “missile”!
Even the Japanese are freaking out, they plan to move Patriot missiles into position to shoot down the communication satellite!
By the way, North Korea launched satellites in 1998 and 2009. Why the uproar now? Is this just a convenient way for the U.S. to back out of it’s promise? Remember what the Taliban said about the U.S.: “…they turned their backs on their promises and started initiating baseless propaganda…” -Taliban statement, March 14, 2012
“It didn’t work. My mileage actually went down.”-Jack Shrader Jr, owner of 2006 Honda Civic Hybrid
I always knew those electric and gas-electric cars were a rip off.
In California thousands of owners of hybrid Honda Civics sued Honda because the cars got no better, or even worse, fuel mileage than a regular gas powered Civic! The batteries also had to be recharged far sooner than advertised!
On March16, 2012, a San Diego Superior Court judge approved a settlement that’s estimated to range between $87.5 million and $461.3 million.
One hybrid owner said that her car was fine until Honda did a mandatory software update: “Now my car is so sluggish. It just doesn’t want to go sometimes and you never know when. I’m livid. It’s not really a reliable car. It should be, I paid a fortune for it!”-Kathy Wood, owner 2007 Honda Civic Hybrid
But wait there’s more! This settlement is in regards to a class action lawsuit. There are hundreds more individual cases against Honda!
“Brittany Green advised that Justin Green came to Brittany’s apartment and told Brittany…that he had shot Ramirez two times because Ramirez did not believe in God.”-Court statement
An entire “christian” family, and a family “christian” friend, have been arrested, for the murder of a former U.S. Army soldier seven years ago in Clay County, Texas.
The family, a mom, son and daughter, set up the murder of the former soldier by luring him into their house, where he was shot several times. Texas Rangers found the body buried in a shallow grave, under trash. His legs were sticking out.
When investigators asked the daughter why her brother shot the victim, she said it was because he refused to accept a christian god!
The mom and the son were captured in Arizona.
