State UK (4 million, 200 hundred thousand cameras) goes for
National ID cards (for foreigners and Immigrants) starting in November
'08. Remember, this was the home of George Orwell.
Department
of Homeland Insecurity director Chertoff asked the UK to begin
requiring visas, for Pakistani origin Brits only! Racial profiling or
racism? It follows on the staged attack from '05 which they blamed on
Pakistanis, though they missed that train. Read the "False Flag Report"
Now DHS is asking for four fingerprints instead of one. Welcome to
America where we will treat you like a criminal.

un-classified report 'out-ed' by MSNBC (owned by NBC, owned by
GE) shows irrational thinking, paranoia, political considerations,
racial stereotyping. Classification of 'Secret' when it incorporates
public documents like Newsweek Magazine? The

Iraq $12BB
month (AP) & NYT chart (via Brookings) tracking progress grades a
5 out of 11 in broad swath of categories. Five years (2003-2008) makes
it America's longest war, $500BB makes it equal to all USA wars
combined.
Story & Chart
The
Tortured Presidency "Fighting for strong executive powers" was
how the NYT characterized a veto, excusing Bush's effort to defend his
spying without a warrant, in violation of the 4th Amendment to the
United States Constitution. Do "Strong Powers" include breaking the law?
Drinking Water:
Global Pharma addiction leaves residue of
Chemicals and Prescription Drugs in the Water supply worldwide.
KBR stands accused of providing
tainted water to contractors and troops in Afghanistan, Georgia (yes,
Georgia), Iraq and elsewhere. Smart move to spin off from Halliburton,
eh?
Venezuela
reopens diplomacy with Columbia, Ecuador joins in handshake. Assume
Chavez wanted a halt to suggestions he supported FARC. Documents show he
loaned them $300MM USD after they backed him with $125k during his jail
time for his attempted coup. Columbia violates Ecuador sovereignty and
Venezuela backs FARC, both drop complaints.
Pakistan:
Anti-Musharraf forces join hands, Nawaz with PPP. Can impeachment be far
behind?
New RUSSIA:
Money, Mighty, Mental? Putin switches seats to PM, new unknown, Medvedev
is President. Whose finger is 'on the button'? Putin says "we left Cuba
and Vietnam and got NATO at our doorstep", forgetting 50 years had
passed and NATO in Georgia or the Baltics reflects their own Eurocentric
perspective.
Conversely, Russian concerns for
Star Wars may be justified as interceptors are planned for Poland and
the Czech Republic. Putin visits Poland and both agree not to allow
disputes to effect trade. Now comes Condi and Bob, with hat in hand, to
steady any Polish concerns, being the target they will soon be.
On to Russia, where Putin says
NYET to interceptors! Read the
on Condi's ironic comments regarding 'unchecked power' last October.
Hey, George looked in his heart and said "this is a man we can do
business with". Really?
Short term memory lags as the USA
talks Czech and Polish leaders into accepting Russian observers, after
the decades it took to kick them out.

 Who
Killed Benazir Bhutto?
How about the U.S. CIA and Pervez Musharraf? Backfired? PPP and
