2007-11-06 23:19 Nach dem Grossen Krieg begann der Run auf das Erdl
Am Ende des Ersten Weltkrieges erkannten die europischen Alliierten die Wichtigkeit des Rohstoffs Erdl (bis dahin hauptschlich aus den USA stammend) - und teilten den lreichen Nahen Osten unter sich auf: [Osama bin Laden's] grievance in no way justifies the bombing. But we ought not close our ears to its essence, which is that the West has placed its business interests over popular sovereignty in the Middle East for 80 years.

Someday, Jay-Z might invite you to a party. If this happens, you will attend. The video for second American Gangster single " Roc Boys (And the Winner Is) " has hit the internet, and it has all the self-confident grandeur necessary to keep the excitement about the rapper's latest album mounting. Diddy, Nas, Mariah Carey, Freeway... there's barely time to notice all the hip-hop guest stars in the house, let alone recognize them (taking notes, Common ).

As I told you before I have a friend who lives in London right now. He is always telling me to go there and visit him. I went to England some years ago but I stayed for only a few days. I visited London and it is a great city. My friend was telling me how difficult is to find a job but he just learned about a site that helps people to find jobs in london. You can see it in this link. I wish I could have had this opportunity here when I was jobless. This company seams to be very serious and my fr …

2007-11-05 21:32 Duff diplomacy
By Simon Tisdall (THE GUARDIAN, 05/11/07): Condoleezza Rice keeps pretty chirpy, but it was a gloomy weekend for US power and interests in the Middle East. Every way she looked during a flying visit to the region, hopes of progress turned to dust in her hands. From Pakistan to the occupied Palestinian territories, there is a sense of imminent unravelling born of misjudgment and long-term neglect. President-General Pervez Musharraf's "second coup" was a personal rebuff for the US secretary of sta …

2007-11-05 21:07 The Iraq war has become a disaster that we have chosen to forget
By Madeleine Bunting (THE GUARDIAN, 05/11/07): "You think you are innocent, but you're not," said the British Muslim suicide bomber in the Channel 4 television drama Britz last week. As the compelling actor Manjinder Virk recited her suicide statement to camera, she went on: thousands of women and children are dying every day in Iraq and Afghanistan, and yet the governments responsible have been returned to power.Her assertion sticks in the mind because it goes straight to the heart of how we ch …

By John Ashcroft, the United States attorney general from 2001 to 2005. He now heads a consulting firm that has telecommunications companies as clients (THE NEW YORK TIMES, 05/11/07): For almost two years, the country has debated whether the Bush administration acted properly and lawfully in undertaking emergency surveillance operations of suspected foreign terrorists on presidential authorization in the wake of 9/11. For several months, we have been debating bills that seek to modernize the For …

2007-11-05 16:07 Video Premiere: Sigur Rs: "Heima" (excerpt from Heima)
Comparisons between the music and the landscape come easily for this video of "Heima", taken from the forthcoming Sigur Rs documentary of the same name (also available without visuals on the Hvarf/Heim double CD). Pitchfork's Amanda Petrusich recently captured the look of the film in the words " stupidly gorgeous ," and this clip hints at the reasons why. Canadian director Dean DeBlois lets the lens hover over arresting images as if they were photographs: whether Jn Por ("Jnsi") Birgisson's d …

An A-Z of Franz Ferdinand is Helen Chase's searing expos of the seamy underbelly of the Scottish angle-rockers, a Kitty Kelly-style autobiography that digs up every last speck of dirt on the perpetually scandal-ridden, drug-addled renegades. Sike! Remember, folks, this is a band whose frontman wrote a book about food. Still, there's plenty to learn about Alex and the lads from the tome. According to NME.com, Chase's A-Z features a series of thematic vignettes and never-before-seen photos, whic …

One proposal that is being widely discussed in the administration would overhaul the procedure for determining whether detainees are properly held by granting them legal representation at detention hearings and by giving federal judge …

2007-11-05 13:28 A Battle Rages in London Over a Mega-Mosque Plan
Disputes over mosques have broken out across Europe. Residents from Belgium to France to Germany have expressed unease at minarets competing in the urban landscape with the spires and stones of centuries-old cathedrals. But the fight raging over an abandoned lot in London's East End is of an altogether grander scale. A large and secretive Islamic sect proposed building what would have been the largest mosque in Europe, smack at the gateway to the 2012 Olympic Games, and within sight of London's …

Today social movements are confronted by a new phase in the capitalist neoliberal system's offensive. This period is characterised above all by a state of permanent global war. For most of the human race this war means recolonisation. Using the war on terror' as a cover, this war aims at controlling natural resources by pillaging peoples the world over. American projects in the Greater Middle East' and South America are the most visible signs of this. Nevertheless, they cannot cover up the fo …
