2007-11-05 21:26  Who really killed de Menezes
By David Aaronovitch (THE TIMES, 05/11/07): A couple of years ago I did my second stint of jury service at a Central London court. We ended up hearing a case in which a middle-class couple were terrorised one evening by a man who had decided, wrongly, that they were connected with an earlier argument he d lost with someone else entirely. There was a lot of punching, threatening and door-smashing involved, and the woman was still so scared that she testified from behind a screen so that the accus …

som Göran Persson  fortrød for fjorten dage siden, desværre seks år for sent, og som kan blive virkelighed i Danmark med en venstrefløjsregering, kan give sig besynderlige udslag. I Holland f.eks. statsstøtte til kæmpemoskeer, også selv om de ikke vil love at være  "moderate" og  har svindlet  10 mio. kroner ud i den blå luft. Men islam støttes fordi de har brug for et mere positivt image", og det er i al fald ikke løgn. Sandheden er  at parlamentet efter håndfaste trusler, simpelthen ikke tør s …

By David Ignatius (THE WASHINGTON POST, 25/10/07): Here's a Lebanese group snapshot, taken in the land where politics is an extreme sport: In an elegant apartment building overlooking the Mediterranean, several dozen members of the anti-Syrian parliamentary majority are holed up under heavy security. The legislators are trying to stay alive long enough to elect a new president by a Nov. 24 deadline, despite an assassination campaign that has already killed several MPs who dared to challenge Syri …

USA:s regering förbereder sig för att förverkliga bland annat alla kubaners innersta drömmar: USA håller på att bygga upp ett stort flyktingläger på Guantanamobasen på Kuba för att kunna ta hand om tiotusentals eventuella flyktingar från närområdet. I sitt tal riktade Bush också en kejserlig uppmaning till övriga världen att enas i Kubafrågan: And now is the time for the world to put aside its differences and prepare for Cuban's transition to a future of freedom and progress and promise.

2007-10-23 18:23  America's war without end
By Simon Tisdall (THE GUARDIAN, 23/10/07): Planned US spending on the "global war on terror" is set to rise sharply in the coming year, despite claims from the president, George Bush, that al-Qaida is on the run in Iraq. A funding request sent to Congress this week seeks $196.4bn (£96bn) for counter-terrorism in 2007-8, $25bn up on this year. The Pentagon's separate budget request amounts to an additional $481.4bn. Justifying these whopping increases, Mr Bush repeats a favourite mantra, that "Am …

Thank you for that kind introduction. It's always good to be back here in the heartland. I want to speak with you about urgent threats that America and the community of nations face. Global challenges that pose serious dangers to the future welfare of the human race.

Last week Hugh Hewitt wrote about An Astonishing And Sickening Breach Of Trust. A private firm that tracks terrorist movements got a hold of the Osama bin Laden video last month, before its release. It gave two senior officials access on the condition that the officials not reveal they had it until the al-Qaeda release.Within 20 minutes, a range of intelligence agencies had begun downloading it from the company's Web site. By midafternoon that day, the video and a transcript of its audio track h …

It's ironic that Zizou Corder 's Lionboy trilogy became a bestselling series in the US since the books are, with little padding to soften the blow, anti-American. Oh, sure, they say that The Simpsons will still be showing in the near future, when these books take place, and The Simpsons are a great gift from America to world culture. But the USA in these books appears mostly as "the Empire Homelands" looming on the west of the Atlantic. That geopolitical picture is especially striking when I com …

The livelihood and empowerment prospects of millions of women who depend on agriculture for survival are affected by their legal rights in land. For many these prospects have been enhanced by the recent Hindu Succession (Amendment) Act 2005(HSAA) which deleted the gender discriminatory clause on agricultural land.
