2007-10-17 02:04 Okay its a puff piece, but we all need puff pieces every once in a while
All these decades later, destiny or providence or something has delivered Mr. Feldman and Mr. Bayyari to the same acre of land at the bottom of one of Fayetteville s many hills. There Mr. Bayyari, now a general contractor, will build the first permanent temple for the Reform Jewish congregation in Fayetteville, of which Mr. Feldman is president. And Mr. Bayyari, a Palestinian-American Muslim, is doing the job at no charge. Without his sacrifice, the congregation probably could not afford the pro …

2007-10-16 10:27 Iraqis Sue Blackwater for Baghdad Killings - Jeremy Scahill
Taken from here (Who still thinks the US liberated Iraq again) Blackwater USA is facing a lawsuit over the September 16 killings in Baghdad s Nisour Square. The largest mercenary company working for the US State Department in Iraq, Blackwater may soon need more lawyers on its payroll than it has armed operatives in Baghdad. Even before its operatives opened fire on a crowded Baghdad street in mid-September, allegedly killing seventeen Iraqi civilians and wounding twenty-four others, Blackwater f …

2007-10-16 05:50 Kucinich's Campaign to Have Bush Ally Investigated for Suspicious Iraq Oil Deal Paying Off, Hunt Oil …
Democratic lawmakers moved Monday toward investigating Hunt Oil's oil exploration contract in Iraq, saying the company's ties to President Bush raised questions about whether it had insider information that helped it reach the deal. U.S. Rep. Henry Waxman, chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, and U.S. Rep. Dennis Kucinich, D-Ohio, asked Hunt to turn over all Iraq-related communication with the U.S. government by Nov. 2. The lawmakers also demanded that Ray Hunt, Hunt …

2007-10-14 02:54 The Horrors of Blackwater
I've received a lot of criticism for my immediate assumption, upon hearing Blackwater employees were involved in a deadly shooting that involved Iraqi civilians last month, that they were guilty of murdering innocent people. Framed in an American legal mindset, there was no reason to say so. History and intuition, I was told, have no place in who we accuse of murder, no matter what initial reports may say. Even if I turn out to have been right, I was told, I was still wrong to jump to conclusion …

Tonight, like most nights, he had the graveyard shift delivering pizzas to other schmucks working the graveyard shift. And tonight, like many other nights, he was headed for Chronocorp. No one knew very much about Chronocorp. Or, perhaps I should say that those who knew kept mum. It was a secretive company, rumored to be involved in classified R&D.

2007-10-13 20:30 DynCorp and Sex Slaves
UN personnel in Bosnia-Herzegovina patronized and even facilitated the sex slave trade there, in some cases going so far as to purchase sex slaves and become part of the corruption preventing the girls and women who had been enslaved from escaping. I present here excerpts from the transcript of a Congressional subcommittee hearing from 2002 into this matter, with a focus on the allegations of one American regarding the involvement of other Americans. I have left the typos in without drawing atte …

The interviewer glanced at Jacob s folder and knew he wouldn t get in. His test scores and grades were as exceptional as those of any plausible candidate.

2007-10-12 21:26 25,000 US detainees in Iraq
The mass attention to the abuse of those in detention began with the April 2004 Abu Ghraib revelations. Yet both human rights activists and we psychologists have focussed most upon abuses that occurred at Guantanamo, and more recently, at the CIA "black sites." So we need a reminder that there are huge numbers of detainees held in Iraq, in support of an illegal and brutal occupation, and more held in Afghanistan. AFP provides such a reminder with an article telling us that US forces are holding …

2007-10-11 14:09 The Night of Power...
...is sort of a confusing concept - at least to me. The Night of Power commemorates the night Allah revealed the Koran to Mohammed. No one knows the actual night during Ramadan this occurred. It's narrowed down to one of the odd-numbered nights in the last ten days of Ramadan. But that ain't all. Various groups disagree on what day is the first of any given month - there is no universally accepted standard within Islam, and therefore one group's odd day can be another group's even. I'm not going …

Even when people are of a single mind about an objective, they can have differences of opinion about how to get achieve that goal. That is what is happening with efforts to reduce cases of malaria in Africa. One of the most effective methods for eliminating the threat (mosquitoes that carry a protozoan parasite that causes malaria) is to get people to use mosquito nets impregnated with insecticide. The debate has been about the best way to distribute the nets [" Distribution of Nets Splits Malar …
