Update: The U.S. 'War of Territory'Henk Ruyssenaars - Ex Africa correspondent,
Ethiopia's CIA-backed troops will be home from Somalia within weeks they say. Leaving Somalia, with a few criminal warlords as 'government'. Some of the CIA-paid warlords are responsible for the U.S. defeat in 1993, dragging US Marine's corpses through the streets of Mogadishu. Now UN troops make the news raping children in Sudan. They rape more than that.

People's Revolt in Lebanon - [The Nation - from the January 8, 2007 issue]FPF-fwd. Mohammed Bazzi,
HR comment: The Nation is a source of information we normally never quote. This is on the other hand a good piece of 'alibi journalism' for the editors of The Nation. Which will not help: we have a memory. It concerns the protest in Beirut, something which should happen as soon as is possible in all US junta colonies.
Hanging Saddam Hussein: The crows join the lynchingFPF-fwd. Gabriele Zamparini,
The illegal US junta's invasion of Iraq and the following genocide: "This supreme international crime started on 20 March 2003 and it’s still being committed. Iraq is an occupied country without sovereignty where terrorists and mass murderers compose its quisling sectarian government."
Former long-time confidant accuses Ariel Sharon of assassinating Yasser ArafatFPF-fwd. Stephen Lendman,

Somalia: US Foreign Policy and Gangsterism - incl. LebanonJustin Raimondo + Henk Ruyssenaars,
The failed UN/US intervention of 1993 led directly to the triumph of the warlords, who plundered, raped, and murdered their way through the streets of Mogadishu, the Somalian capital, and reduced the country to Mad Max territory. The same deadly chaos - made in the US - now again foments more hate.

"The press must not be allowed to make this about Ethiopia, or Ethiopia violating the territorial integrity of Somalia,” The same violations as the US junta is guilty of in neighboring Sudan which still refuses an invasion by twenty-two-thousand (22.000) US troops, so called "peace keepers"
The 10 Top Idiots of the Year 2006FPF-fwd. New Trend Magazine,
HR comment: As an in Holland born foreign correspondent I've also for ten years lived in the North Africa/Mideast area, trying to understand and 'cover' the geopolical changes. I think this list is very small but fully correct.
Newsweek & the Iran war show goes onHenk Ruyssenaars - Foreign correspondent,
The Newsweek item below is typical of 'alibi journalism': 'But we also published criticism.' they'll whine in defense of their betrayel at coming war crimes tribunals. But again taking part in the run up to the planned war with Iran. After a US made 'UN resolution' yesterday made Iran stop the IAEA inspections too...

Nigeria,Africa,William Jefferson,Tim Mahoney, iGate,vFinance,U.S. Corp. fraudsTony Ryals,
But this involves using a penny stock scam to bribe politicians on an international scale,in Africa. Reminescent of Titan Corporation's involvement in Africa not long ago.However I would still say for all the Louisiana and Beltway and African intrigue involved with William Jefferson's and Vernon L. Jackson's Nigerian venture with their U.S. penny stock corporation iGate Inc,that ex Republican turned Democrat Tim Mahoney 's VFIN is a much larger international fraud. Russia won the SHELL gameHenk Ruyssenaars - Foreign correspondent,
Soon it will be announced that SHELL in Russia has made an energy 'deal' with Putin's government. But it is 'an offer they can't refuse'. SHELL lost this important geopolitical fight for energy resources and must surrender control over Sakhalin-2, the only foreign owned huge oil and gas fields in Siberia.

Downing Street faced accusations of trying to "bury bad news" by using the release of the 'report' on the death Diana, Princess of Wales, to overshadow a two-hour grilling of the Prime Minister by police as part of the "cash-for-honours" investigation. Blair's aides lied to limit the damage, at first denying there had been an approach by the police.

Call Me Crazy, But Think I've Been Here BeforeFPF-fwd. Stephen Pizzo,
"James Baker warned that the commission's report "should not be treated like a fruit salad, picking this, rejecting that." That missed the point. We are not worried that the commission's report is a fruit salad, but that the guy they wrote it for is."
Chile under the gun - (HR: like all US junta colonies)Isabel Allende + FPF links,
"I thought I was safe because I wasn't visibly "involved" in politics, in the meantime sheltering desperate fugitives in my home or helping them over embassy walls in search of asylum. I thought that, if I were arrested, I could explain that I was acting out of humanitarian motives. Apparently, I was somewhere on the moon."
Tinker Bell, Pinochet And The Fairy Tale Miracle Of ChileFPF intro + links + Greg Palast,
General Pinochet - who had me kicked out of Chile in June 1974 - in the too many following years embezzled tens of millions of dollars.

Nigeria: one Lebanese and 3 Italians kidnappedFPF-fwd.: The Tide - Nigeria,
An unconfirmed report said three security men were killed and several others wounded when they tried to challenge the militants. The Tide sources also indicated that the militants extended their unholy act to the houses of some prominent citizens of the area by setting them ablaze.
France24 State 'news' channel to challenge BBC, CNN, FOX etc?Henk Ruyssenaars - Foreign correspondent,
The problem with all those 'sources' is governments paying for the information being spread. As legendary US journalist I.F. Stone said 4 decades ago: "All governments lie." Based on my 4 decades of experience with many governments and their 'advisers' one can only confirm that Izzy Stone was totally right. They all lie and people die.
