PVV: geen vrijheid, maar Balkenende on speed

Op Krapuul een analyse van het PVV-verkiezingspamflet. Een pamflet in plaats van een programma, want daar heb je doorgaans leden met een eigen mening voor nodig, die wijzigingen kunnen voorstellen en er over stemmen...

Ik zie, naast een enkel sociaal standpunt, vooral veel verboden, wijzende vingertjes en subsidie van rijk door arm (ongelimiteerde hypotheekrenteaftrek). Koppel dit aan alle privacyschendende maatregelen die de PVV ondersteunt (uitgezonderd de km-heffing, want dat is electoraal niet handig), en Wilders' draaikonterij omtrent Irak, en je weet wat je krijgt.

Geen vrijheid, maar een kabinet Balkenende on speed.

Het is natuurlijk niet voor niets dat Wilders te pas en te onpas roept dat het CDA diep buigt voor de PvdA, terwijl het steevast andersom is.

Hij wil straks met het CDA in het kabinet.

Neocon Group Calls for Military Strikes on Media

It is, of course, very appropriate that such a despicable battle cry for murdering media workers appears in a JINSA publication. The organization has long boasted an all-star cast of criminal "advisers," among them Dick Cheney, Richard Perle, James Woolsey, John Bolton, and Douglas Feith. JINSA, along with the Project for a New American Century, was one of the premiere groups in shaping U.S. policy during the Bush years and remains a formidable force with Obama in the White House.

Bhutto gedood door Cheney's doodseskader?

NEW YORK (Online) - Former prime minister of Pakistan Benazir Bhutto was assassinated on the orders of the special death squad formed by former US vice-president Dick Cheney, which had already killed the Lebanese Prime Minister Rafique Al Hariri and the army chief of that country.
The squad was headed by General Stanley McChrystal, the newly-appointed commander of US army in Afghanistan. It was disclosed by reputed US journalist Seymour Hersh while talking to an Arab TV in an interview.

Hersh said former US vice-president Cheney was the chief of the Joint Special Operation Command and he clear the way for the US by exterminating opponents through the unit and the CIA. General Stanley was the in-charge of the unit.

Rumsfeld en Tamiflu

Rumsfeld's growing stake in Tamiflu
Defense Secretary, ex-chairman of flu treatment rights holder, sees portfolio value growing.

By Nelson D. Schwartz, Fortune senior writer

NEW YORK (Fortune) - The prospect of a bird flu outbreak may be panicking people around the globe, but it's proving to be very good news for Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld and other politically connected investors in Gilead Sciences, the California biotech company that owns the rights to Tamiflu, the influenza remedy that's now the most-sought after drug in the world.

Netanyahu and the NeoCons - A Match Made in Heaven or Tel Aviv?

I was covering the UN for the Jerusalem Post in the early 1980s and recall how Netanyahu’s speeches echoed the Likud-neocon line of that time: the PLO was a Soviet-controlled terrorist organization, Israel was America’s “strategic asset” in the Middle East, and the American-Israeli alliance was containing the international terrorist threat advanced by Moscow and its Palestinian and other Arab allies. “The two countries are finding themselves increasingly alone in international organizations like the United Nations,” I wrote in one of my reports for the Post. “A visitor from Mars to the UN headquarters in 1985 would have found it difficult to decide, after listening to Ambassadors Jeane Kirkpatrick and Benjamin Netanyahu, which of the two represented the United States and which Israel.”

A reminder: the policies promoted by Likud and its neocon allies in Washington resulted in major costs for both Israel and the United States. The Israeli invasion of Lebanon in 1982 and the Iran-Contra affair were among the harmful products, while the first Intifadah highlighted the destructive consequences of placing the Palestinian issue on the back burner.

Why I know weapons expert Dr David Kelly was murdered, by the MP who spent a year investigating his death

For Tony Blair it was a glorious day. He was in the United States being feted by the U.S. Congress and President Bush.

Their adulation was such that he was being offered the rare honour of a Congressional Gold Medal.

Naturally enough, Bush and his administration were hugely grateful for Blair's decision to join the United States in its invasion of Iraq.

Breaking news: Indictment of Bush Officials May Come in Days

The imminent indictment in Spanish courts of former officials of the Bush Administration is being applauded by civil and human rights organizations and legal scholars. The popular wave of support for indictment of Bush officials will inevitably lead to Bush himself.

The rule of law, justice, and basic integrity require the indictment for criminal wrongdoing of George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Karl Rove, Donald Rumsfeld, Alberto Gonzales and other high officials of the former Bush Administration.

Pulitzer winner Seymour Hersh reveals Cheney's assassination ring, gets no press

So when Mr. Hersh spilled the beans earlier this month about an executive assassination ring which reported directly to Dick Cheney, why did the major media give this so little coverage? The news spread widely through alternative news websites, yet leading newspapers and other major media (with a few exceptions) gave little to no coverage. Could it be that there are powerful people who don't want the public to know about such things?

Neo-fascisten Italië houden eerste congres

,,Een droom is werkelijkheid geworden, de officiële geboorte van het Volk van de Vrijheid'', zie Berlusconi tijdens de openingsavond van het congres. Hij voegde eraan toe dat de nieuwe partij ,,in de harten van miljoenen Italianen al lang bestond''.

Met de fusie verstevigt Berlusconi zijn machtsbasis. Volgens recente peilingen kan de nieuwe partij rekenen op 42 procent van kiezers. ,,We moeten mikken op 51 procent en weten hoe we dat moeten bereiken'', zei Berlusconi. De eerste testcase voor de partij is deze zomer, bij de Europese verkiezingen.

Capitalism’s Self-inflicted Apocalypse

After the overthrow of communist governments in Eastern Europe, capitalism was paraded as the indomitable system that brings prosperity and democracy, the system that would prevail unto the end of history.

The present economic crisis, however, has convinced even some prominent free-marketeers that something is gravely amiss. Truth be told, capitalism has yet to come to terms with several historical forces that cause it endless trouble: democracy, prosperity, and capitalism itself, the very entities that capitalist rulers claim to be fostering.

Amerikanen willen onderzoek naar Bush' aanpak terrorisme

Ongeveer tweederde van alle Amerikanen is voorstander van een onderzoek naar de manier waarop de regering van president George Bush de oorlog tegen de terreur heeft aangepakt. Dat blijkt uit cijfers van onderzoeksbureau Gallup, waar de krant USA Today vandaag mee uitpakt.

De bevraagden moesten hun mening geven over drie mogelijk onderzoeksthema's: het gebruik van foltering, telefoontap en de politisering van het ministerie van Justitie.

The War on Terror is a Hoax

By Paul Craig Roberts

The “war on terror” is a hoax that fronts for American control of oil pipelines, the profits of the military-security complex, the assault on civil liberty by fomenters of a police state, and Israel’s territorial expansion.

There were no al Qaeda in Iraq until the Americans brought them there by invading and overthrowing Saddam Hussein, who kept al Qaeda out of Iraq. The Taliban is not a terrorist organization, but a movement attempting to unify Afghanistan under Muslim law. The only Americans threatened by the Taliban are the Americans Bush sent to Afghanistan to kill Taliban and to impose a puppet state on the Afghan people.

Hamas is the democratically elected government of Palestine, or what little remains of Palestine after Israel’s illegal annexations. Hamas is a terrorist organization in the same sense that the Israeli government and the US government are terrorist organizations. In an effort to bring Hamas under Israeli hegemony, Israel employs terror bombing and assassinations against Palestinians. Hamas replies to the Israeli terror with homemade and ineffectual rockets.

Hezbollah represents the Shi’ites of southern Lebanon, another area in the Middle East that Israel seeks for its territorial expansion.

The US brands Hamas and Hezbollah “terrorist organizations” for no other reason than the US is on Israel’s side of the conflict. There is no objective basis for the US Department of State’s “finding” that Hamas and Hezbollah are terrorist organizations. It is merely a propagandistic declaration.
