Terror plot gets even better

According to the NYT: The alleged plot also included plans to pay the cartel, Los Zetas, to bomb the Israeli Embassy in Washington and the Saudi and Israeli Embassies in Argentina, according to a law enforcement official. I was wondering how long it would take for the word “Israel” to appear in this tale – well, here it is. And, for good measure, let’s throw in Argentina, just in case

Some quick comments about the latest “Iranian terror plot”

I just came home and found this idiocy staring at me from  the BBC’s website:  Iran agents ‘planned US terror attacks’ First, quick calendar check: is it April 1st?  Nope. Crap. I was hoping this was a lame joke.  Okay then, let’s take a look at the latest idiocy conjured up by the Ziocon propaganda machine. According to this story, the Iranians have been caught trying to kill the KSA

Democracy a la russe

Medvedev and Putin have recently announced that they would trade places: Putin will run for President and Medvedev will be his Prime Minister.  This was not exactly a stunning surprise, though some speculated that Medvedev and Putin were in reality more competitors than friends.  In fact, their warm smiles and mutual backslapping proves nothing.  For all we know, they could be the biggest friends on the planet or they could

US Envoys from Hell

The choice of US ambassadors to Central Asia and the Middle East gives one pause for thought, says Eric Walberg    The 711 coalition deaths in Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan last year made 2010 the deadliest one for foreign troops since the US invasion in 2001, continuing the upward trend since 2003. 2011 promises to be even more deadly, and already includes the most spectacular event in this gruesome

China and Russia veto UN resolution condemning Syria

Great news: China and Russia veto UN resolution condemning Syria. God knows I am no more a fan of Assad than I am of Gaddafi, but there is no doubt in my mind that the worst possible solution would be a repetition of what happened in Libya, but this time in Syria. Furthermore, China and Russia are also sending a message to the US and its European “pack of poodles”

Saudi woman to be lashed for defying driving ban

The BBC reports that a court in Saudi Arabia has sentenced a woman to 10 lashes for breaking the country’s ban on female drivers. Well, I have always said that Saudi Arabia is the worst hell hole on the planet and that Saudi Wahabism is quasi-demonic religious sect every bit as bad the Ziocon propaganda depicts it to be.  But the brazen arrogance of actually officially enforcing such laws still

Why Mahmoud Abbas’ speech matters a lot

I just finished listening to Mahmoud Abbas’ speech at the UNGA and I have to say that I was very impressed.  God knows I am no supporter of Abbas, but listening to him the thought crossed my mind that maybe the old man decided to redeem himself as much as possible at the 11th hour of his career? I am under no illusion about what this speech can or cannot

Iranian President declares pre-planted explosives brought down towers, not just planes

911 Blogger reports: Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says that as an engineer he’s sure the twin towers were not brought down by jetliners. Ahmadinejad, in an interview with The Associated Press, says it would have been impossible for two jetliners to bring down the towers simply by hitting them. he says some kind of planned explosion must have taken place. Ahmadinejad stopped short of saying the United States staged the

Explosions indeed, but caused by water and aluminum: a new theory about 911?

Yup, they came up with yet another theory to ‘explain’ the collapse of the Twin Towers.  This time, the Twin Towers fell, I kid you not, because of an explosion caused by a mix of water and aluminum.  You can read all about it here. Well, I would say that the glass is clearly half-full, because at the very least they admit that explosions did cause the collapse.  That is

A Formal Funeral for the Two-State Solution

by Ali Abunimah for Foreign Affairs via ICHThe Palestinian Authority’s bid to the United Nations for Palestinian statehood is, at least in theory, supposed to circumvent the failed peace process. But in two crucial respects, the ill-conceived gambit actually makes things worse, amplifying the flaws of the process it seeks to replace. First, it excludes the Palestinian people from the decision-making process. And second, it entirely disconnects the discourse about

You Only Believe the Official 9/11 Story Because You Don’t Know the Official 9/11 Story

by Jessie Richard for TVNewsLiesDuring the past 10 years I have not met a single individual who, after doing research on the subject, switched from questioning the official narrative of the events of 9/11/2001 to believing the official narrative of those events.. It is always the other way around. Why do you think that is? There are good reasons for this, and I will try to explain this phenomenon right
