Israel Apologizes for Murdering American Citizen, No Charges Filed

Screw You Americans! Your Government Won’t Back You When Israel Murders Your Children!

American Citizen Furkan Dogan murdered by Israel endures post murder apology sent to Turkish Prime Minister

by Johnny Punish

Yesterday just before U.S. President Obama was to get on Air Force One and take off back to the USA from his 4 day trip to the Middle East, he made a deal with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to offer a “rapprochement” or what is called an apology for the merciless attack on a humanitarian aid ship that killed 9 including young American Citizen Furkan Dogan.
The Turkish ship, the Mavi Marmara, was in international waters on its way to deliver humanitarian aid to the people of Gaza when Israeli gunship helicopters dropped military commandos on board killing and wounding the peace activists.
Yesterday, in a small building at the Israeli airport, Obama and Nentanyahu made the apology conference call to the Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan and spoke for 20-30 minutes.
It’s been nearly three years since the Mavi Marmara flotilla pirate-esque murder incident in May 2010 with no indictments, investigations or convictions.
Yesterday, the leaders agreed upon resumption of full relations between the two countries. Netanyahu also assured his counterpart Friday that Israel had lifted restrictions on the entry of civilian goods into the Gaza Strip.
Before US President Barack Obama ended his three day visit to Israel and the occupied West bank, the White House issued a statement in which the US president said that Prime Minister Netanyahu and his Turkish counterpart Erdogan had spoken by telephone.
“The United States deeply values our close partnerships with both Turkey and Israel, and we attach great importance to the restoration of positive relations between them in order to advance regional peace and security,” Obama said.

Mavi Marmara May 2010

Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said that all of Turkey’s demands have been achieved, and that Turkey has taken everything it wants from the Israeli side after the apology of Prime Minister Netanyahu and his pledge to pay compensation besides lifting the blockade on Gaza. Davutoglu also added that the most important thing for them is to achieve what they want, even after several years.
Moreover, Davutoglu confirmed that Israel’s apology is just the beginning, pointing out that it is a preface for the revival of the Palestinian-Israeli peace process on an equal basis.
In response to the Mavi Marmara flotilla incident, Turkey-Israel relations have deteriorated, as Turkey has decided ways to punish Israel that include halting military cooperation and not returning its ambassador to Israel.
Furthermore, Turkish media, at that time, said that Turkish officials have called on the government of Erdogan to bar Israeli ships from docking at Turkish ports. Additional Turkish moves may include canceling civil cooperation such as education, sports and cultural agreements.
Almost 3 years ago on 3 June 2010, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton confirmed the death of American Citizen Dogan and said U.S. officials had met with Doğan’s father to express their condolences. Clinton said, “Protecting the welfare of American citizens is a fundamental responsibility of our government and one that we take very e’ve seen this before. We’ve had to endure the murder of American hero Rachel Corrie by the State of Israel over a decade ago with not peep by U.S. leadership condemning the murder or even holding anyone in Israel accountable for the crime. It’s been a common theme that the American people have been conditioned to accean apology for the murder by its leader. Now What?
Well, I do know that in our country, when someone murders another person, we arrest them, file indictments, and put them on trial. Once found guilty, they have the choice to apologize; some do, some do not. Either way, they go to jail and must pay for their crime. Apology is good for their soul but it does not absolve them from being punished and sent to jail.

I personally applaud Obama for obtaining the confession from Nentanyahu. It’s a good service for humankind and good for the soul of Israel. But is that it? Apologize and go home to watch CSI and eat Matza ball soup?
Look, we’ve seen this before. We’ve had to endure the murder of American hero Rachel Corrie by the State of Israel over a decade ago with not peep by U.S. leadership condemning the murder or even holding anyone in Israel accountable for the crime. It’s been a common theme that the American people have been conditioned to accept; namely that when Israel commits crimes against U.S. citizens nothing will be done about it and no one will be held accountable for it. Why?
Worse, has Israel ever been held accountable for the attack on the USS Liberty where they murdered our American Navy soldiers? No! Not a word! Nothing! Why? Who are this freaks of immunity and why are they given a pass like this?
Like Rachel Corrie parents who’ve been fighting for over 10 years for justice for their young daughter and our murdered esteemed American Navy, I fear that Furkan Dogan’s parents will remain in that same bottomless vortex wondering why President Obama and the justice department does not at least file a complaint with the World Court or the U.N. or something….anything? Why so impotent?
Look, does anyone really believe that our U.S. President and our justice department will follow through and indict Nentanyaho or any of his assigns who contributed to this murder? Did they for the victims of USS Liberty? Rachel Corrie? And now Furkan Dogan?
The message is to us is that when we get murdered by Israel it’s screw you American citizens cause your country won’t back you! I’m Sorry!

Multi-Purpose Wonder Can Generate Hydrogen, Produce Clean Water and Even Provide Energy

Multi-Purpose Wonder Can Generate Hydrogen, Produce Clean Water and Even Provide Energy

Posted By: Susoni [Send E-Mail]
Date: Sunday, 24-Mar-2013 22:57:52

A new wonder material can generate hydrogen, produce clean water and even create energy. Science fiction? Hardly, and there's more -- It can also desalinate water, be used as flexible water filtration membranes, help recover energy from desalination waste brine, be made into flexible solar cells and can also double the lifespan of lithium ion batteries. With its superior bacteria-killing capabilities, it can also be used to develop a new type of antibacterial bandage. Scientists at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in Singapore, led by Associate Professor Darren Sun have succeeded in developing a single, revolutionary nanomaterial that can do all the above and at very low cost compared to existing technology. This breakthrough which has taken Prof Sun five years to develop is dubbed the Multi-use Titanium Dioxide (TiO2). It is formed by turning titanium dioxide crystals into patented nanofibres, which can then be easily fabricated into patented flexible filter membranes which include a combination of carbon, copper, zinc or tin, depending on the specific end product needed. Titanium dioxide is a cheap and abundant material, which has been scientifically proven to have the ability to accelerate a chemical reaction (photocatalytic) and is also able to bond easily with water (hydrophilic). More than 70 scientific papers on Prof Sun's work in titanium dioxide has been published in the last five years, the latest being papers published in Water Research, Energy and Environmental Science, and Journal of Materials Chemistry. Prof Sun, 52, from NTU's School of Civil and Environmental Engineering, said such a low-cost and easily produced nanomaterialis expected to have immense potential to help tackle ongoing global challenges in energy and environmental issues. With the world's population expected to hit 8.3 billion by 2030, there will be a massive increase in the global demand for energy and food by 50 per cent and 30 per cent for drinking water (Population Institute report, titled 2030: The "Perfect Storm" Scenario). "While there is no single silver bullet to solving two of the world's biggest challenges: cheap renewable energy and an abundant supply of clean water; our single multi-use membrane comes close, with its titanium dioxide nanoparticles being a key catalyst in discovering such solutions," Prof Sun said. "With our unique nanomaterial, we hope to be able to help convert today's waste into tomorrow's resources, such as clean water and energy." Prof Sun's multi-use titanium dioxide can: concurrently produce both hydrogen and clean water when exposed to sunlight be made into a low-cost flexible filtration membrane that is anti-fouling desalinate water as a high flux forward osmosis membrane recover energy from waste desalination brine and wastewater be made into a low-cost flexible solar cell to generate electricity doubles battery life when used as anode in lithium ion battery kill harmful microbial, leading to new antibacterial bandages How the wonder material was found Prof Sun had initially used titanium dioxide with iron oxide to make anti-bacterial water filtration membranes to solve biofouling -- bacterial growth which clogs up the pores of membranes, obstructing water flow. While developing the membrane, Prof Sun's team also discovered that it could act as a photocatalyst, turning wastewater into hydrogen and oxygen under sunlight while still producing clean water. Such a water-splitting effect is usually caused by Platinum, a precious metal that is both expensive and rare. "With such a discovery, it is possible to concurrently treat wastewater and yet have a much cheaper option of storing solar energy in the form of hydrogen so that it can be available any time, day or night, regardless of whether the sun is shining or not, which makes it truly a source of clean fuel," said Prof Sun. much more http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2013/03/130320094856.htm

NRA gains upper hand on Obama

By Mike Lillis - 03/24/13 06:00 AM ET

After a series of missteps that gave President Obama the early advantage in this year's gun-violence debate, the National Rifle Association (NRA) has struck back.

The powerful gun lobbying group had stumbled in the immediate wake of December's Newtown, Conn., grade-school massacre, launching a blistering attack on opponents that alienated even some NRA supporters and upped the odds of Obama moving tougher gun laws through Congress.

But three months later, the NRA has regained its footing, rallying gun owners and lawmakers against new gun controls in a fierce lobbying effort that appears to be paying dividends on Capitol Hill.
Indeed, over the last 100 days, Democrats have grown more divided over Obama's proposed reforms. 
An assault weapons ban is on life support and Senate Democrats have failed to entice a single Republican to back universal background checks. Congress also this week solidified four gun-friendly laws as part of legislation to fund the government through September.
To some observers, the shift in momentum comes as no surprise at all.
"[NRA CEO] Wayne LaPierre made terrible mistakes early on. They took two very bad spills," Ross Baker, political scientist at Rutgers University, said Friday in a phone interview. "But they quickly recovered and they assumed their usual position of dominance.
"They may do poorly in the first quarter, but they rally and they're usually ahead by halftime," he added. "They've been at it a long time. They know what buttons to push."
Adam Winkler, a constitutional expert at the UCLA School of Law, offered a similar explanation this week, arguing that even when the NRA is on the ropes, it "still sways a lot of voters."
"The NRA didn't become the political powerhouse it is by losing high-profile battles," Winkler, the author of "Gunfight: The Battle over the Right to Bear Arms in America," said Friday in an email. 
"Even though the NRA had a poor showing in the November elections, the people whose job it is to know who sways voters — members of Congress — still think it can deliver."
Those dynamics were laid bare this month during a series of gun-control
hearings in the Senate Judiciary Committee, where Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) pushed through four separate bills, including a universal background-check proposal and a ban on scores of military-style semi-automatic rifles and high-capacity ammunition magazines. 
Not only were panel Republicans united against those proposals, but Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) walked away from negotiations with Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) over background checks, denying the bill the bipartisan support it will need to pass the full Senate. 
Additionally, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said he won't include the assault-rifle ban as part of the package he brings to the chamber floor for fear it will doom the other provisions — a move that all but ensures the ban will die as an amendment to the larger bill.
"I think the worst of all worlds would be to bring something to the floor and it dies there," Reid, a long-time opponent of the assault weapons ban, said this week.
Gun-control advocates — pointing to public opinion polls that show overwhelming support for Conn>
enact tougher laws — insist they're still on track to do just that.
"I do not believe that the momentum has stopped," Rep. Carolyn McCarthy (D-N.Y.), Congress's loudest gun-control advocate, said Friday in a phone interview. "People have not forgotten what happened in Newtown." 
A Democratic strategist familiar with the issue echoed that message, arguing that the more controversial elements of Obama's gun-control wish-list —particularly the assault weapons ban — were never expected to pass Congress. 
By pushing hard for that ban, the strategist said, Democrats were simply negotiating from the left, always with the idea they could cash in that chip to get the universal background checks that stand at the core of their effort to keep violent people from buying guns.
"For once, the Democrats actually did things in a smart way. Instead of starting by giving in, they started by asking for more," the strategist said. "You could call it a momentum change, but this was always the way this was going to play out."
Baker, of Rutgers, offered a different forecast, giving even the expanded background check provision "considerably less-than-even" odds of passing Congress this year.

The NRA raised plenty of eyebrows in the weeks immediately following the Newtown massacre when it staged a defiant press conference calling for more guns in schools, then launched a provocative web ad that featured Obama's young daughters. The moves were condemned by a number of prominent Republicans, including New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and former Florida Rep. Joe Scarborough, who accused the group of being extremist. 

"What's wrong with these people?” Scarborough asked in January on his “Morning Joe” program on MSNBC. "Their leadership has dragged them over the cliff, they are now a fringe organization.”
Rep. Mike Quigley (D-Ill.), a vocal supporter of tougher gun laws, accused the NRA Friday of "manipulating the debate" by "preying on the worst fears" of gun-owning Americans — people who, polls say, support many of the gun controls Obama is urging. He said the NRA's blanket opposition to tougher laws won't prevent reformers from fighting for those changes this year. 
"We're going to get one shot at the apple here, one bite," Quigley said Friday by phone, "and it would be legislative malpractice for us not to try to take it as far as we possibly can."

“No I can’t” Obama Says

Saturday, March 23rd, 2013

by Alan Hart

We now know that President Obama believes there is little or no prospect for peace in the Middle East unless enough Israeli Jews, in particular the young to whom he appealed directly, understand that the only way for Israel to survive as a Jewish and democratic state is “through the realization of a viable and independent Palestine” and then insist that their government commits itself in negotiations to ending the occupation of the West Bank (now well into in its 45^th year).
By implication Obama has acknowledged that he does not have the will to confront the Zionist lobby in Washington D.C. and an Israeli government committed to ever expanding settlement, even when doing so is necessary to best protect America’s own interests.
The above, based on everything Obama said in public to Israeli Jews and Palestinian Arabs while he was among them, is my summary conclusion about Obama’s position.
The double standard and hypocrisy at the heart of American foreign policy was evident in what he said within minutes of his arrival in Israel. “Iran’s leaders have to realise they must meet their international obligations.”
That’s on the one hand. On the other is that Israel’s leaders are NOT required to meet their international obligations.
While Iran is sanctioned and threatened with war largely on account of Netanyahu’s assertion that it is working on the production of a nuclear bomb (an assertion which may prove to be as false as the claim that Saddam Hussein possessed nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction), nuclear-armed Israel is rewarded for its defiance of international law and a stack of UN Security Council resolutions.
When I studied the full text of Obama’s opening statement in Israel, I found myself wondering if he is shockingly ignorant of some of the most important elements of the truth of history as it relates to the making and sustaining of the conflict in and over Palestine that became Israel, or whether he is aware of the whole truth but believes that his own interests are best served by peddling Zionist propaganda and other Jewish mythology.
He said, for example, “I know that in stepping foot on this land, I walk with you on the historic homeland of the Jewish people.”
The implication of those words is that all the Jews of the world have a common ethnic origin and national heritage, and therefore a valid claim on the land that today constitutes Israel and the Israeli-occupied West Bank. As I and others (including Israeli historian Shlomo Sand, author of The Invention of the Jewish People) have documented, that is simply not true. Almost all if not all the Jews who went to Palestine in answer to Zionism’s call had no biological connection to the ancient Hebrews. They were the descendants of peoples from many homelands (mainly in Eastern and Western Europe) who converted to Judaism centuries after the brief rule of the ancient Hebrews ended and thereafter had only their religion and its rituals in common. And the same can be said of most of the Jews of the world today. (It’s possible that there are today more Palestinian Arabs than Jews who are descended from the ancient Hebrews).
Obama began his arrival speech with answers to a question which he said was sometimes asked about America’s relationship with Israel – “Why does the United States stand so strongly, so firmly with the State of Israel?”
I think some of Obama’s answers to that question need to be examined and challenged.
He said:
We stand together because we share a common story – patriots determined “to be a free people in our land,” pioneers who forged a nation, heroes who sacrificed to preserve our freedom, and immigrants from every corner of the world who renew constantly our diverse societies.
Missing from that answer is that the “common story” includes the fact that both nations were founded on ethnic cleansing. America was ethnically cleansed of most of its native Indians, and Palestine was ethnically cleansed of most of its indigenous Arabs.
Could it be that a shared history of ethnic cleansing is the reason why very many Americans are pre-disposed to buy Zionism’s propaganda?
He said:
We stand together because we are democracies. For as noisy and messy as it may be, we know that democracy is the greatest form of government ever devised by man.
The reality is that America is a democracy in name only, not substance. What passes for democracy there is for sale to the highest lobby bidders. As some concerned Americans have noted, the U.S, has “the best democracy money can buy.” (President Kennedy tried and failed several times to introduce legislation to end the corruption of American politics. If he had been allowed to live and serve a second term, he might have succeeded).
Also true is that for democracy to exist the citizens of nations, the voters, need to be informed enough about  critical issues to call and hold their leaders to account, and not only at election time. The fact is that the vast majority of Americans are not informed enough to do that.
It can also be said that if freedom to criticize Israel’s policies and actions is one test of democracy in action, Israel is far more democratic than America.
He said:
We stand together because we share a commitment to helping our fellow human beings around the world. When the earth shakes and the floods come, our doctors and rescuers reach out to help. When people are suffering, from Africa to Asia, we partner to fight disease and overcome hunger.
The flaw in that answer is that many Israeli Jews do not regard Palestinian Arabs (including those who are citizens of Israel) as “fellow human beings.” They are regarded and sometimes labeled as inferior creatures who must submit to Zionism’s will or be expelled or even exterminated like vermin if they don’t.
He said:
We stand together because peace must come to the Holy Land… Even as we are clear-eyed about the difficulty, we will never lose sight of the vision of an Israel at peace with its neighbors.
The flaw in that answer is that Israel’s leaders have never had of vision of peace on terms that would satisfy the demand and need of the Palestinians for an acceptable minimum amount of justice.
And finally, he said:
The United States of America stands with the State of Israel because it is in our fundamental national security interest to stand with Israel.
Obama knows that is not true, so why did he say it? The only answer that makes sense to me is that he cannot admit that America’s unconditional support for the Zionist state right or wrong is a prime cause of the rising tide of anti-Americanism throughout the Muslim world and beyond in general, and fuel for the spreading fire of violent Islamic fundamentalism in particular.
If he was to admit that, even some of the most mis-informed and uninformed Americans would ask him a question: “Why then, Mr. President, are you not putting American’s own best interests first by using the leverage you have to oblige Israel to be serious about peace on terms the Palestinians could accept?”
The honest answer to that question is in two parts.
One is that on policy for Israel-Palestine, Obama is president in name only. The policy shots are called (more or less) by Israel’s leaders and their lobby in all of its manifestations in America.
The other is that even if Obama (or any American president) did use the leverage he has to try to cause Israel to be serious about peace on terms the Palestinians could just about accept, there is no guarantee that Israel’s leaders would finally say, “Okay, Mr. President, we’ll do what you want.” There is a real possibility that they would tell him to go to hell.
As I note in my book Zionism: The Real Enemy of the Jews, and have mentioned in previous articles, it is not only fear of offending the Zionist lobby too much that prevents any president from putting America’s own best interests first. There is also a presidential fear, quite widely shared in the U.S. defense and intelligence establishments, that an American attempt to push Israel further than its leaders were prepared to go could result in them expressing their displeasure by creating havoc in the region.
Israel possesses nuclear weapons not because Ben-Gurion, Moshe Dayan and others believed they were needed to enable Israel to maintain its military superiority. (In passing it’s worth noting that Ariel Sharon was one of Israel’s military hawks who opposed the idea of going nuclear for weapons. He believed that Israel would always be able to defeat the Arabs with conventional weapons and superior manpower; and he feared that if Israel did develop nuclear weapons, the Arabs would one day follow, and that if they did possess nuclear weapons of their own, Israel’s ability to impose its will on the region would be neutralized).
According to what Dayan (Israel’s one-eyed warlord) inferred to me in a private conversation in 1969 and to which I refer in my book, Israel’s decision to go nuclear for weapons was driven by the need to have a blackmail card in addition to that of the Nazi holocaust.
Dayan said, explicitly, that Ben-Gurion and others including himself were not stupid. He meant and said that from the moment of Israel’s birth they took it for granted that a day would come when even its best friends (he meant America in particular) would say to Israel’s leaders: “Enough is enough, You have become a liability for us. Now you must do what we ask.” I then said to Dayan, “We both know you don’t need nuclear weapons for defense against the Arabs… You need them to be able to say to an American president, if necessary, something like, ‘If you push us further than we are prepared to go, we’ll use these things’” Dayan’s initial response to my speculation was a thin smile. He didn’t deny it or in any way challenge it. As I recalled the conversation years later, he eventually said something to this effect: “Those were your words, not mine, but you are understanding our situation.”
There are some who believe (and perhaps they are right) that Obama deserves praise for daring to say some things that Netanyahu would not have  wanted Israeli and other Jews to hear, not from the lips of the President of America on the ground in Jerusalem.
For example: “It’s not fair that a Palestinian child lives with the presence of a foreign army that controls the movements of her parents every single day. Put yourselves in their shoes – look at the world through their eyes.… Given the frustration of the international community, Israel must reverse an undertow of isolation.”
But most significant of all was Obama’s warning that the only way Israel can survive as a Jewish and democratic state is by ending its occupation in order to create the space for a viable Palestinian state.
The audience of young Israelis to whom he made that statement applauded him, but many of those in power with Netanyahu do not see withdrawal to the 1967 lines (perhaps with minor and mutually agreed land swaps) as the “only” way of defusing the demographic time of occupation. They favour “transfer”, which is a euphemism for a final Zionist ethnic cleansing of Palestine.
And there are still some who cling to the idea of the “Jordan option” – de-stabilizing that kingdom, getting rid of the Hashemite monarchy and saying to the Palestinians of the West Bank: “There’s your state. Go. Take it.” (That was, in fact, the end-game Sharon had in mind when he masterminded Israel’s invasion of Lebanon all the way to Beirut in the summer of 1982 for the initial purpose of exterminating the entire PLO leadership and destroying the organization’s infrastructure).
Obama’s overview of the prospects for peace, given in Ramallah in answer to a question, was this:
Peace is possible. It’s not guaranteed. I can’t even say that it’s more likely than not. But it is possible.
So, too, is a final Zionist ethnic cleansing of Palestine.
That being so I have to bring this article to a conclusion by saying that I think Obama’s decision not to use the leverage he has to cause or try to cause Israel to end its occupation, and effectively pass the make-it-happen buck to a new generation of Israeli Jews, is both disingenuous and reprehensible, to say the very, very least.
As things are and look like going, it is also possible that Obama will be seen in history as the president who, by default, gave Zionism the freedom to extinguish the light of hope for peace and complete its ethnic cleansing of Palestine, an outcome that could set the region and perhaps even the world on fire. (That is the outcome desired by American Christian fundamentalists who support the Zionist state right or wrong and bankroll its on-going colonization of the West Bank).
A judgment of history as indicated above might contain a mitigating reference from Miko Peled. “The Israeli-Palestinian issue is, politically, a toxic wasteland that no U.S. President in his right mind would want to clean up. It has become a vicious cycle of deceit and double standards, and it will contaminate any U.S. politician who tries to clean it up.”
He added: “One after another, American presidents have run away from the challenge.” (Eisenhower was the first and the last president not to do so, and it is possible, in my view probable, that President Kennedy would have taken on the challenge of confronting the Zionist monster if he had been allowed to live and serve a second term).
My only disagreement with Miko is that Obama is not “running” away. He is gliding gracefully away at his rhetorical best.
After she resigned from his government because of her opposition to the war on Iraq, Claire Short described Prime Minister Tony Blair to me as an “actor manager”. That seems to be an appropriate description of a second-term Obama at least so far as his handling of the Israel-Palestine conflict is concerned.
At the time of writing the main question waiting for an answer from the Palestinian side is this.
Will “President” Abbas be submissive enough to do what Obama indicated he wants and drop the Palestinian demand for a complete freeze on Israeli settlement expansion as a pre-condition for resuming talks (let’s not call them negotiations) with Netanyahu’s government?

IMF Statement on Cyprus

Press Release No. 13/91
March 24, 2013

Ms. Christine Lagarde, Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), made the following statement today after discussions at the Eurogroup meeting on Cyprus:
“The agreement reached today on Cyprus provides a comprehensive and credible plan to deal with the current economic challenges in the country. The plan focuses on dealing with the two problem banks and fully protecting insured deposits in all banks. It addresses upfront the core problem of the banking system through a clear strategy that ensures debt sustainability and does not excessively burden the Cypriot taxpayer. This agreement provides the basis for restoring trust in the banking system, which is key to supporting growth.
“We believe the plan provides a durable and fully financed solution to the underlying problems facing Cyprus and places it on a sustainable path to recovery. The staff teams of the IMF and the European partners currently in Cyprus will now work to complete the technical details. Based on this and final agreement of the mission in Cyprus, I expect to make a recommendation regarding potential financial support from the IMF to the Executive Board in coming weeks.”

[rotormech35] slickops and you, as I, will do whatever you have to do to hold on to that horse for as long as you can.... the old saying... DO NOT BITE THE HAND THAT FEEDS YOU!!!

[trebor1859] tornado I'm willing to listen but find it real hard to understand that
[slickops] rotormech35 or look a gift horse in the mouth....

[Robertprofessor] trebor1859 I'll try. The R V apparently happened about 24 hours after the Vatican Bank got a new boss ... the new pope. UST got a new boss, too. Important pieces. We have not seen it

[trebor1859] Robertprofessor I have an open mind but each day goes by tends to prove that theory to be false.

blackjon] Robertprofessor do you really believe that ?

[Robertprofessor] blackjon Yes, I do. Remember that Kuwait's RI didn't show for 10 days ... and this is much bigger than one country. This is basically the whole planet.

[slickops] blackjon the difference in Kuwait and now is the Bush authorization for inclusion of regular folks...the reporting and the internet access was much less then....I know because i was in the administration at the time also....

blackjon] slickops that is true but it does not make it any less iraqs baby  imo

 [slickops] blackjon i agree...but the wait and the awareness is much more intense this time

[rotormech35] blackjon you truly do not believe this is a world reset?

[blackjon] slickops so much more

 [blackjon] rotormech35 thats right it is all iraq but the world will proffit in every way jobs, oil, gold , work biluding

 [rotormech35] blackjon alrighty then

[blackjon] rotormech35 it may go against everything you believe how it will happen and thats ok b/c we all get paid in the end

[rotormech35] blackjon it does and i agree

weathernut] Jester I must say that this week coming up looks more promising than I've ever seen!

 [Jester] slickops the guys we are working with have a huge real world net and track a lot of info..

 [calibeach] I'm so excited and I just can't hide it, I'm about to loose control and I think I like it....yeah!:

 [snowwolfsdee] weathernut I agree

 [Jester] weathernut yes it does...

[SassyDinar] See Eagle Has Landed post on Recaps...   http://www.dinarrecaps.com/our-blog.html

[RindsGuy] SassyDinar I saw that. In the video he starts talking about the economy at right about 36:00

[RindsGuy] SassyDinar He does confirm the budget is in billions and not trillions like some people earlier were thinking

SassyDinar] RindsGuy - right and it was said that Iraq would be out of ch 7 March 31st... woo hoo

[SassyDinar] So we'll just have to watch and see how this week unfolds...

[RindsGuy] SassyDinar and see if all this this really means anything for us? I have a sneaking suspicion with everything else we were told was tied to the RV, that this will come and go and we'll all still be here

[letsdance] RindsGuy did it say they would be out...or that they are requesting to be release 03/31??

[RindsGuy] letsdance I couldn't find that part and I wasn't ready to listen to the whole thing. But, my understanding is that they would LIKE to be out by 3/31

[letsdance] RindsGuy right... thats what I understood..and I agree...the budget will come and go and they will move on to the next event

[SassyDinar] RindsGuy - don't think so... RV this week... release chap 7 March 31... Kuwait to visit Iraq 1st week of Apr... and Kuwait said they would not go to Iraq until after they RV their currency...

[letsdance] SassyDinar you got a link for that Kuwait not going to Iraq until RV??? cant find that

[RindsGuy] SassyDinar I REALLY hope you are right. I'm just being cautious and skeptical. Got myself too excited before just to be let down. So, I expect SOMETHING to happen between now and then.

[SassyDinar] It has been said on several calls I listen too... sry

[SassyDinar] K, I'm done... just thought I'd bring what is being said...

 [letsdance] maybe this is why Kuwait will not go to Iraq..... KUWAIT CITY, March 22: According to information received by the Kuwaiti security authorities, the Ezzat Al-Douri group, the only surviving bastion of the erstwhile Baathist regime of Saddam Hussein, plan to attack the aircraft carrying Kuwait’s Prime Minister Sheikh Jaber Al-Mubarak Al- Sabah to Iraq next month on an official visit, reports Al-Qabas daily. However, the daily added Kuwait is keen on ensuring the success of the visit of the Prime Minister to Baghdad calling it ‘historical’ which is decisive in the sense it will help resolve many pending files between the two countries.   http://www.arabtimesonline.com/NewsDetails/tabid/96/smid/414/ArticleID/194390/reftab/36/Default.aspx

[letsdance] but it sounds like he still has plans to go...hmmmmmm ....However, the daily added Kuwait is keen on ensuring the success of the visit of the Prime Minister to Baghdad calling it ‘historical’ which is decisive in the sense it will help resolve many pending files between the two countries.

RindsGuy] letsdance It sounds like it's been a planned trip for a while

[letsdance] RindsGuy yes it does

[letsdance] do you really think they are gonna say they are not going until they RV????

[RindsGuy] letsdance No, not at all. That sounds a bit odd to me. Plus, the fact that it's only from conference calls which means most likely coming from "sources." That leaves the credibility factor pretty low.

[letsdance] whew!!!! sometimes I think I am alone here lol

[RindsGuy] letsdance Like everybody says "take as rumor." I take EVERYTHING has a rumor. Even news sources lol

[Villarmosa] SS different year! UGH!

letsdance] RindsGuy rumor it is .... even from NEW sources lol

[letsdance] Villarmosa yep round and round we go

[letsdance] *News

[letsdance] but hey....new works too lol

[Villarmosa] merry-go-round - we live in an AMUSEMENT PARK!

**********************

goin4broke] nw true but if we believe budget has been passed it had to be signed by Talabani Iraq's president.

[novemberwhiskey] goin4broke it hits his desk, whether or not he sign's it it takes effect when???

[novemberwhiskey] come on?

[dinarolk] novemberwhiskey 30 days

novemberwhiskey] aaarrrgggg

[novemberwhiskey] how many days folks?

[goin4broke] nw that is the multi million dollar question. Once budget is really passed can't wait for the next excuses.

[billuke] novemberwhiskey 15 days

[goin4broke] I've heard 15 days

 [novemberwhiskey] you folks should know this

 [OKCRN] sent over on the 7th plus 15 days means it was done and Gazetted on the 22nd.....right?

 [goin4broke] OKCRN sounds logical to me but it is Iraq. Ha ha

[OKCRN] goin4broke (Well, that makes 3 of us so far that agree that time limit is 15 days then automatic enactment....)

 [goin4broke] OKCRN the 30 day thing was automatic start if all else passed those days. Best of my memory.

[R&R] novemberwhiskey The Presidency Council has ten days from the date of receipt (Mar 17th) to do one of two things: (a) sign and approve; or (b) return to parliament with conditions. If niether of these is completed within the ten days (in this case by the 27th) then at the end of the 15th day, the budget can be sent to Gazette, and immediately becomes law. This per the Consititution section 146 parts A-C

[novemberwhiskey] R&R you study and know. nice

Grassroots Effort Begins to Initiate Recall Vote of Colorado (D) Gov. John Hickenlooper For Signing New York Style Gun Control Laws Maryhrt http://educate-yourself.org/cn/coloradogovernorrecallpetitioning22mar13.shtml snip The ONLY way you can stop the steady and unrelenting erosion of Constitutional liberties being destroyed by the Zionist-Illuminated rats is to get rid of their puppet politicans who are implementing the unconstitutional laws which are delivering us into the hands of the fifth columnists and Zionist agents. If you live in Colorado, you have an obligation to stop being a spectator and GET INVOLVED in saving the country from these sellout snakes who need to be kicked to the curb and replaced by a loyal American patriot. It can only happen by taking direct, personal action. Talking about it, blogging about, e-mailing about it MEANS NOTHING. Action brings change. ..Ken Adachi]. March 22, 2013 Grassroots Effort Begins to Initiate Recall Vote of Colorado (D) Gov. John Hickenlooper for Signing New York Style Gun Control Laws (March 22, 2013) Subject: Sign Action to Recall Governor Hickenlooper From: "Steve Campbell" <openbook47@gmail.com> Date: Fri, March 22, 2013 To: Ken Adachi ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: blizzofoz <bearandblizz@yahoo.com> Date: Fri, Mar 22, 2013 Subject: Sign Action to Recall Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper To: blizz oz <bearandblizz@yahoo.com> John Hickenlooper, soon-to-be ex-governor of ColoradoWestern Slope- Action to Recall Colorado Governor It is time to be more than an internet warrior. Step up and take action to restore your rights This is an effort to Recall Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper. He has violated our 2nd Amendment rights, and needs to be recalled: In Colorado, this is a relatively straightforward task that has already started: - Determine if there are enough voters that want a recall - We need approx 493,000 voters willing to sign petition, so the first step is to determine if we have enough - Link at bottom allows you to support to signing petition - Once we have support, we will draft the petition and have the State certify it is in correct format and such - Once certified, we will have 60 days to get the required signatures - The signatures will then be sent in for verification - If we have enough verified signatures, a recall election will be started - On the recall ballot, it will ask: Do you support a Recall Yes / No If yes, please vote from the list of the following candidates: (which will NOT include GOV Hickenlooper) Based on Hickenlooper barely getting 51% of the votes in the last election, he will almost certainly be recalled and a new Governor elected If you support a recall, go to the following link and sign the support pledge, it only takes a minute or so. https://www.change.org/petitions/colorado-residents-who-support-our-rights-recall-john-hickenlooper?utm_campaign=action_box&utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=share_petition   Colorado Residents who Support our Rights: Recall John Hickenlooper Chris Schomp Petition by Chris Schomp Parker, CO Hickenlooper actively supports recalling 2nd Amendment rights of its citizens, so let's recall him. He ignores Colorado's voice, the voice of our law enforcement, and instead reads cue cards from out of staters like Michael Bloomberg...It is time to tell him we are not New York, and we do not appreciate our rights being taken. By supporting these gun laws he removed 200+ jobs from Colorado in a time when we need them most, and cost the state millions in tax revenue. How is this good for our state? They created recall elections for a reason, so let's show him that he is not representing us as he is required to do by the Colorado Constitution. We need at least 447,000 Colorado resident signatures, so let's show him we mean business! This is in efforts to make sure that we have the necessary support before filing, since you only have 60 days to gather 400k+ signatures after formally filing a recall petition. So this is not the official petition, but a way to drum up support, and allow us to easily reach those in support if we can reach necessary numbers.

The measures backed by state Democrats cleared the state Senate on March 12. Republicans put up stiff resistance to the bills, arguing that the measures would not be effective in preventing future mass killings. Some Colorado sheriffs said before the governor signed the bills that they do not plan to enforce new gun-control laws in their districts, according to the Denver Post. “Why put the effort into enforcing a law that is unenforceable?” Weld County Sheriff John Cooke told the Colorado paper on Monday. “With all of the other crimes that are going on, I don’t have the manpower, the resources or the desire to enforce laws like that. ...The measures also met resistance from magazine-maker Magpul Industries, (1-877-462-4785 Email: info@magpul.com) which said that it would desert its plant about 30 miles from Denver if the proposed magazine limits became law.
