Today's mission, should you choose
to accept it ...
Seven important things to read, watch and do
(1) Scroll through the Reader Comments.
You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll learn stuff, and you'll find out in
what cities John J.
Mearsheimer will be speaking when he visits Canada in a few
days. And if there's not enough there for your liking, post
something yourself.
(2) Check
out Blog2 Ben Saifer of the Ottawa branch of NION has provided a short
report on the challenge presented to Israeli Ambassador Alan Baker
during his latest foray into apologetics for Israel, as well as a link
to more detailed coverage of the event.
(3) See the wonderful video
that Carolle in Montreal forwarded with this comment:
"A great video that breaks down many stereotypes. These are the
Muslims I know."
(4) Check out what's going on with the
European 9/11 truth movement. Thanks to Bill Douglas for
the heads up on this: 9/11
Truth Evening at the European Parliament! I was amazed to
find out how much the European truth movement has
grown. There is a ton of information at 9/11 Truth Europe.
(5) Read The Muckraker Report
and follow the link to join Noam Chomsky and thousands of others
in signing the "Jersey widows" petition for the release of 9/11
documents. (Also via
Bill Douglas)
(6) Read an article entitled "Canada's
Secret
War in Iraq". Thanks to Richard Sanders of COAT for
sending it along.
Also: check out the discussion about this issue on the Rabble
message board. Anyone who thinks Canada is not involved in
the mess in Iraq is sadly mistaken.
(7) Time to seriously start following
the US
presidential primaries as the race narrows. You may already know
that a couple of Clinton supporters have gone over to Obama, and George
Bush Sr., Arnold Schwarzenegger and Mitt Romney have thrown their
support behind Republican John McCain.
Chess pieces are being moved and pawns eliminated. Democrat Barack
Obama reportedly has "the Black vote" and is neck and neck with
Clinton. McCain has the all-important military mentality of the White
House coup that occurred in 2000. If Obama drops out, what will
happen to "the Black vote"? If Afro-Americans are so discouraged
they stay home in droves, the election managers won't have to bother disenfranchising
them as happened in the last race.
But a win for Hillary Clinton would be a repeat of the messy old
Clinton administration - under the thumb of the neo-cons.
I think Obama said it all when he said of McCain: "George Bush may
not be on the ballot this fall, but his tax cuts and his economic
policies are"(AFP)
His foreign policy too. So who do you
think the election managers are likely to create a win for?
There are all sorts of quotes in the AFP article suggesting
that McCain is the choice: "If you don't think John McCain is just
as dangerous in the White House as George W. Bush, think again"
Translation: He's the New World Order's golden boy. "Obama does not
have the experience to serve our nation as commander in chief".
Translation: The wars will expand.
We may have to wait and see which presidential candidate gets invited
to this year's Bilderberg conference
because that seems to have indicated in the past who will be pres or PM
(the Clintons, the Bushes, and all three of Jean Chretien, Stephen
Harper and Paul Martin attended prior to being elected).
