Tape proves I'm right about Iraq: Bush President George Bush has seized on a videotaped message from Ayman al-Zawahiri, Osama bin Laden's deputy, as proof that Iraq was part of the war on terrorism.Which gives you the motive for yet another timely video tape, which must be yet another fake because the real Ayman al-Zawahiri was captured in 2002

Ex-employees say Halliburton deceived the government- As a food manager at a U.S. military camp, Mayberry said he witnessed KBR employees serving spoiled food to American troops, including items whose expiration date was more than a year old, and food from trucks that had been bombed and shot at. 'We were told to go into the trucks and remove the food items and use them after removing the bullets and any shrapnel,' Mayberry said.

China: Ties With US Harmed by Meddling in Israeli Arms Deal: The clash between China and the U.S. involves more than Israeli weapons sales. Washington is concerned over China's arming itself, its growing economic power, and the weakness of the yuan, which was revaluated at the end of July following U.S. pressure. There are also human-rights issues involved. 'The U.S. often criticizes China's human rights record,' Zhao told Haaretz, 'but it does not understand our situation. We do not deny that China's human rights record is not perfect. There are problems we are trying to solve. But when the U.S. attacks China, its intentions are not pure. The U.S. does not include itself in the report the State Department publishes on human rights; it sets itself as the judge of the world. In recent years, China has been publishing a report on human rights in the U.S., to remind Americans of their own problems,' he said.

Israel: Fragmented beyond repair?: The continuation of the settlement enterprise is an act of suicide for the Zionist dream. It is not only about demographics. It is perhaps even more so about values, morality and lessons that we, as Jews, should understand better than anyone else.
