Send War Criminals To International Criminal Court

The International Court may yet have the opportunity to behave as a real court and prosecute the war criminals of all time.

Colin Powell who lied to the UN on at least TWO occasions. The first illegal, immoral invasion of Iraq which was paid for the by the world and based on Powell's "word." (Later satellite imagery showed that Saddam's tanks were not even near the border let alone inside Kuwait).
So when the Bushies went back to the UN for their usual war extravaganza (paid for by the world guppies), ...the UN wasn't biting without some evidence. Gosh the weapons inspectors were destroying
all the missles that could shoot down American aircraft and they were almost done...time to go for the oil fields the country was disarmed!



In the meantime, hundreds of CIA prisons throughout the world operate as Nazi prison camps. People are captured and taken there on "rendition flights" where they are raped, sodomized, placed on leashes and generally abused, regardless of
their level of innocence.

i.e. Iraq did not attack the USA.
Iraq did not have an airforce or any current day ability to defend itself from endless bombing.

These are Nazis. Psychopathic, narcissistic killers who would do to you and me what they would do to other human beings. They have done more harm collectively to America and the world than anyone in history.

Ah the Bush "off the records" funding machine that controls the US Govt. There were 16 Saudis presumably involved in the 911 attack, yet Bush clandestinely approved the departure of members of the bin Laden family and Saudi royal family without interview by the CIA or FBI. Over 120 Saudis departed on executive jet and presidential cover, while all North American airspace was grounded.

(And a press secretary so narcissistic he uses up all air time to discuss ..no NOT the OCCUPATION in Iraq and SLAUGHTER there now...to go on and on about ..of course HIMSELF.)... Wow..Tony..people are dying and suffering in Iraq...check it out buddy.

Court 'can envisage' Blair prosecution
By Gethin Chamberlain, Sunday Telegraph, 17/03/2007
Tony Blair faces the prospect of an International Criminal Court investigation for alleged coalition war crimes in Iraq.
The court's chief prosecutor told The Sunday Telegraph that he would be willing to launch an inquiry and could envisage a scenario in which the Prime Minister and American President George W Bush could one day face charges at The Hague.

Luis Moreno-Ocampo urged Arab countries, particularly Iraq, to sign up to the court to enable allegations against the West to be pursued. Iraq's ambassador to the United Nations said that his country was actively considering signing up.
America has refused to accept the court's jurisdiction and is unlikely to hand over any of its citizens to face trial. However, Britain has signed up and the Government has indicated its willingness to tackle accusations of war crimes against a number of British soldiers. Mr Moreno-Ocampo said it was frustrating that the court was viewed in the Arab world as biased in favour of the West. Asked whether he could envisage a situation in which Mr Blair and Mr Bush found themselves in the dock answering charges of war crimes in Iraq, he replied: "Of course, that could be a possibility\u2026 whatever country joins the court can know that whoever commits a crime in their country could be prosecuted by me."




Human rights lawyers remain sceptical about whether charges will ever be brought.
Some Muslim countries have criticised what they claim is the court's reluctance to address offences committed by western governments.
Sudan, which has been investigated over its role in the killing of civilians in Darfur, has called for the court to investigate coalition actions in Iraq, while Mahathir Mohamad, Malaysia's former prime minister, has announced plans to set up an alternative war crimes tribunal to hear complaints against countries including Britain, Israel and America.
Mr Moreno-Ocampo said that, while he was sympathetic to the views of Arab countries, the answer was for them to get involved in the legal process.
The court is restricted in what it can investigate. The UN Security Council can ask it to act - as in the case of Darfur - or the court can launch an investigation if it receives a complaint from a state which is party to the Rome agreement that established it. It can also look into alleged offences carried out by, or on the territory of, a party to the agreement.
Jordan has signed up and Afghanistan is a signatory, though Sudan is not. Days before the invasion of Iraq in 2003, Saddam Hussein approached lawyers in Britain about signing up but was overtaken by events. Had he succeeded, the actions of the US in Iraq would fall within the court's jurisdiction.
Mr Moreno-Ocampo said it was still possible for an investigation to be launched into coalition actions in Iraq if that country signed up.
Hamid al-Bayati, Iraq's ambassador to the UN, said Iraq was actively considering joining.
The court is currently prosecuting cases against the Lords Resistance Army in Uganda, a militia leader in the Democratic Republic of Congo and a number of individuals alleged to have been involved in the conflict in Darfur.

Since the Bush crime syndicate controls the Supreme Court, the news media and the WTC,
it would seem that the only recourse the American people have is to ask the world court
to intercede and arrest Bush / Cheney as war criminals prosecuting a war not wanted by nearly 70% of a former democracy. The USA no longer has habeas corpus, people are arrested without warrant and torture is prevalent, while the news media play an Orwellian Operation Mockingbird drool of distraction to keep any truth of the savagery and slaughter in Iraq for that country's oil. Over 600,000 Iraqis have died and many died horribly while CNN reporters were weeping over Tony Snow's narcissistic monopoly of the airwaves to go on and on about his struggle with cancer. Good grief, get a grip on reality America and DEMAND The damn truth from these clowns.

Let's start by sending the crime syndicate in office to the world court, it may be the only one they haven't yet corrupted.

Why We Love Rosie

Credited to Jane Ridley at Wise Woman's Tarot:

Why We Love Rosie


1. She's consistently un-PC. Her humor and politics offend just about everyone, ranging from Chinese people to Catholics to American soldiers fighting in Iraq.

2. She takes on the big guys. Donald Trump, Rupert Murdoch and the National Rifle Association are up there on her hit list.

3. She's out and proud. Invited into their living rooms every morning, O'Donnell has won over people who once thought gays and lesbians had two heads.

4. She's adopted kids. Long before Brangelina, O'Donnell and her wife, Kelli, were advocates for adoption and gay parenting, sharing their home with three adopted children. Their fourth baby was conceived through sperm donation.

5. She's a hilarious actress. Who can forget her famous sex scene with Julian McMahon on TV's "Nip/Tuck," in which she played a trailer-trash lottery winner who splurges on a makeover.

6. She's accessible. O'Donnell blogs away, posting her crazy thoughts on her Web site. And she doesn't whine about fame. "You beg people to be interested in your life, ... and then you tell them to go away," she has said. "To me it seems unfair."

7. She engages mouth before brain. We might think it, but she goes ahead and says it.

8. She's from Bayside, Queens. Of course we're gonna defend one of our own.

9. She puts money where her mouth is. Her charity, Rosie's For All Kids Foundation, has handed $3 million to Hurricane Katrina relief and $20 million to other causes.

10. She's a go-getter. She could have stayed in her comfort zone, but she dared to launch the ill-fated Rosie's McCall's magazine and produce the Broadway flop "Taboo." They may have failed, but New York adores a risk-taker. Jane Ridley* The Wise Woman's Tarot -> http://www.flashsilvermoon.com *



You make more room for all of us Rosie, thanks for having the courage to say what many cannot.








A special thank you for taking on the primary fascist controlling the news media in America.



Especially with the paid off hacks passing as credited journalists who do nothing but report Tspin.


Thanks for pointing out things like:

Lynne Cheney's book for children, starting the programming early.

Iwa Jima programming...never too early to start preparing the children to sacrifice their bodies, their lives for the Cheneys' (er, America).

Rosie, you KNOW you are batting 1000 when Joe Scarborough is shrilling about you nearly every night. You cannot buy that kind of free advertising eh!

And the tired trumphet (Trump)...I guess we can just let him go like the air going out of a balloon. He is just so- yesterday (who does that comb over).

Keep rocking Rosie...how about a show with the Dixie Chicks?

The Waropoly of American Crime

"To open ourselves to the truth and to bring ourselves face to face with our personal and collective reality is not an option that can be accepted or rejected. It is an undeniable requirement of all people and all societies that seek to humanize themselves and to be free.."

-- Guatemalan Bishop Juan Jose Gerardi Conedera.

Assassinated April 25, 1998, one day after his speech (and above quote),when he presented his findings of an in-depth probe into a campaign of terror against the people of Guatemala waged by their own government.
Guatemalan religious leader who, in his campaign for human rights, led the Recovery of Historical Memory project; two days after the project's findings were published, documenting the abuses that took place during 36 years of civil conflict, Gerardi was beaten to death (b. Dec. 27, 1922, Guatemala City, Guat.--d. April 26, 1998, Guatemala City).

(Protestors in Indonesia - it is doubtful the photograph or story has ever been seen by most Americans in the highly censored waropoly of embedded news that has protected the Bush crime family for sixty years).

HOW has the past of this evil family been kept from the American people. HOW?




















the crimes of the RNC and in particular the Bush family are documented and recorded in the national archives, while the truth is omitted from the propaganda (history) given to children.

While US corporations use the American military to rape, torture and train others to do the same, the public is fed a diet of bland, "we are the best people in the world crap, that leaves one breathless with its devoid -of- conscience narcissism."


The USA is a terror nation. The number one terror nation, including the terrorizing and lying to its own people (for sixty years).

At the core of all of this psychpathic narcissism is a group of people who show up in every RNC run government and some Democratic ones too.

It is time to hold them to account.

Why are we following criminals who lie to us and own a media complicit in the operation...so much so they even have a name for it "Operation MOCKINGbird."

Thanks news media....they could not have stolen our democracy without your cowardly complicity. It HAS HAPPENED in America and it happened because the news media is complicit in the crime.

The Supreme Stealth Presidency

A lawyer's view of how the Bush's Supreme Court placed Bush in office.

LAYMAN'S GUIDE TO THE SUPREME COURT DECISION IN BUSH V. GORE by Mark H. Levine, Attorney at Law.

Q: I'm not a lawyer and I don't understand the recent Supreme Court decision in Bush v. Gore. Can you explain it to me?

A: Sure. I'm a lawyer. I read it. It says Bush wins, even if Gore got the most votes.

Q: So Bush wins because hand-counts are illegal?

A: Oh no. Six of the justices (two-thirds majority) believed the hand-counts were legal and should be done.

Q: Oh. So the justices did not believe that the hand-counts would find any legal ballots?

A. Nope. The five conservative justices clearly held (and all nine justices agreed) "that punch card balloting machines can produce an unfortunate number of ballots which are not punched in a clean, complete way by the voter." So there are legal votes that should be counted but can't be.


Q: Oh. Does this have something to do with states' rights? Don't conservatives love that?

A: Generally yes. These five justices, in the past few years, have held that the federal government has no business telling a sovereign state university it can't steal trade secrets just because such stealing is prohibited by law. Nor does the federal government have any business telling a state that it should bar guns in schools. Nor can the federal government use the equal protection clause to force states to take measures to stop violence against women.

Q: Is there an exception in this case?

A: Yes, the Gore exception. States have no rights to have their own state elections when it can result in Gore being elected President. This decision is limited to only this situation.

Q: C'mon. The Supremes didn't really say that. You're exaggerating.

A: Nope. They held "Our consideration is limited to the present circumstances, or the problem of equal protection in election processes generally presents many complexities.

Q: What complexities?

A: They don't say.


Q: I'll bet I know the reason. I heard Jim Baker say this. "The votes can't be counted because theSup Florida Supreme Court "changed the rules of the election after it was held." Right?

A. Dead wrong. The US Supreme Court made clear that the Florida Supreme Court did not change the rules of the election. But the US Supreme Court found the failure of the Florida Court to change the rules was wrong.

Q: Huh?

A: The Legislature declared that the only legal standard for counting vote is "clear intent of the voter." The Florida Court was condemned for not adopting a clearer standard.

Q: I thought the Florida Court was not allowed to change the Legislature's law after the election.

A: Right.

Q: So what's the problem?

A: They should have. The US Supreme Court said the Florida Supreme Court should have "adopt[ed] adequate statewide standards for determining what is a legal vote"

Q: I thought only the Legislature could "adopt" new law.

A: Right.

Q: So if the Court had adopted new standards, I thought it would have been overturned.

A: Right. You're catching on.


Q: If the Court had adopted new standards, it would have been overturned for changing the rules. And if it didn't, it's overturned for not changing the rules. That means that no matter what the Florida Supreme Court did, legal votes could never be counted.

A: Right. Next question.

Q: Wait, wait. I thought the problem was "equal protection," that some counties counted votes differently from others. Isn't that a problem?

A: It sure is. Across the nation, we vote in a hodgepodge of systems. Some, like the optical-scanners in largely Republican-leaning counties record 99.7% of the votes. Some, like the punchcard systems in largely Democratic-leaning counties record only 97% of the votes. So approximately 3% of Democratic votes are thrown in the trash can.

Q: Aha! That's a severe equal-protection problem!!!

A: No it's not. The Supreme Court wasn't worried about the 3% of Democratic ballots thrown in the trashcan in Florida. That "complexity" was not a problem.

Q: Was it the butterfly ballots that violated Florida law and tricked more than 20,000 Democrats to vote for Buchanan or Gore and Buchanan.

A: Nope. The Supreme Court has no problem believing that Buchanan got his highest, best support in a precinct consisting of a Jewish old age home with Holocaust survivors, who apparently have changed their mind about Hitler.


Q: Yikes. So what was the serious equal protection problem?

A: The problem was neither the butterfly ballot nor the 3% of Democrats (largely African-American) disenfranchised. The problem is that somewhat less than .005% of the ballots may have been determined under slightly different standards because judges sworn to uphold the law and doing their best to accomplish the legislative mandate of "clear intent of the voter" may have a slightly different opinion about the voter's intent.

Q: Hmmm. OK, so if those votes are thrown out, you can still count the votes where everyone agrees the voter's intent is clear?

A: Nope.

Q: Why not?

A: No time.

Q: No time to count legal votes where everyone, even Republicans, agree the intent is clear? Why not?

A: Because December 12 was yesterday.

...http://www.iknowwhatyoudidlastelection.com/bush-supreme-court.htm

and the beat goes on... with the most criminal placed presidency in history committing treason, appointing judges and sending the children of the poor to die for the greed of corporations devoid of conscience, integrity, honesty or any basic human values that define a civilized nation.

Faces of Courage

The Dixie Chicks, three very young women who could see through the crime in office and said so early on.
THANK you for being such good role models for the youth of the country.

You give me hope.


Joseph Taylor has this to say about the Chicks:


Still Rockin' Free in Bush's Fascist America
September 1, 2006
Counterbias.com by Joseph Taylor

The Dixie Chicks are among the music industry's handful of headliners with the brass kahunas to speak truth to America's post-9/11 fascist leadership in Washington.
In 2003 The Chicks fell afoul of America's Thought Police when singer Natalie Maines, on the eve of the US-led invasion of Iraq, told a London audience the band was "ashamed" of sharing Texas as a home state with George W. Bush.
The well-publicized comment garnered death threats from the ranks of the mentally challenged. But the remark also prompted Academy-Award winning director Barbara Kopple (Harlan County USA and American Dream) to chronicle the aftermath of the "episode" in Dixie Chicks: Shut Up and Sing, a documentary premiering in July at the Toronto Film Festival.
http://www.counterbias.com/737.html

Whereas Cynthia McKinney, while in congress questioned Cheney as to why the govt. was still directing contracts to Halliburton and Dyncorp when BOTH were operating in the international sex slave trade. The American media immediately set out to discredit McKinney, attacking everything from her hair style to an altercation with a bullying guard.

Another messenger killed, another voice silenced.

This media would kill Paul Revere (for a buck)
.



While here we stand...

betrayed by our media,
betrayed by our leaders..

Let us surround them holding candles ..setting the intention that all their deeds and intent be SEEN.

Let's make our individual lives count, by standing for integrity, truth and justice.

If not you and me...then who? If you do not stand YOU WILL KNOW - and you have to live with yourself for the rest of your life. If you DO stand ..you will be amazed at the sense of SELF worth you generate.

These are cowards who became rich on the backs of the poor. Cowards brave only when protected by a gang, and saved even from hearing a difference of opinion their narcissistic psychopathic egos are so fragile.

Let us begin then with the indictment of Bush, Cheney, and Scalia, then reverse every Supreme Court appointment made by this illegal, immoral, criminal administration brought to office by a criminally complicit Supreme Court.

Who's the Fascist?
I want someone who advocated the abuse and torture of prisoners to talk to me about fascism.

I want an administration that is classifying documents at the highest rate in our history, in a supposedly open government, to speak to me about totalitarianism.


I want to be lectured by a government that solves all problems through military force about the dangers of power run amok.
I want a government that spies on 20 million of its own citizens to define the fight against despotism.

I want a man who has spent his time in public office, in the name of my country, supplying brutal dictators with chemical and biological weapons and contra soldiers to define, for me, the global struggle against fascists.
I think the first person to speak out against fascism should be a government that is stripping its own people of “certain unalienable rights” that it hypocritically tries to spread around the world as a guise for its imperialist ambitions.
I want a government that has more citizens imprisoned than any other nation in the world to speak of fascism.

In a country where peaceful protestors are wrangled into fenced off areas to redress their grievances against their government.

It is in this country that political dissenters are put on no-fly lists and harassed by executive law enforcement agencies. It is in America where political protestors have been shot, maced, and gassed without provocation by representatives of the executive branch of our government.










A government where day after day the executive violates rules and laws they swore to uphold. The same government that imprisoned its own citizens for years after 9-11-01 with no due process should know full well the dangers of fascism. I want an executive that uses religion to justify its political stance against life saving medical procedures to lecture me about the dangers of religious fanaticism

...

The fight against fascism needs to start at home. These Orwellian “newspeak” speeches given around the US to unite people in a struggle against the supposed fascists on the outside, while we forget the tactics we use to fight this “enemy” are the creation of the fascists on the inside. These people we fight are not fascists; they are missing one important ingredient…the corporations. Fascism by definition is the blending of corporate interest with public government. I can’t think of anyplace on the planet where it is more the case, than it is in the US. In a country where you are hard pressed to find legislation that is not bought and paid for by corporate interests. Or try to find the individual senator or congressperson that isn’t bought either; it will be a hard find. Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones. If we are going to fight an all out war on fascism we should start at home. Only then will we have the moral authority to demand and end to totalitarianism around the world.

BOYCOTT BUSH BROADCASTING

Propaganda over public airwaves, catapaulted by a criminal corporate media complicit in war profiteering has kept the public in the dark in regard to a group of psychopaths who have controlled US govt for a number of years.

THINK about it. Samuel Bush (great grandfather to the current shrub) was part of the MERCHANTS of DEATH who ensured WWI would happen and they would profit extensively from same.

WWII Prescott Bush (Grand daddy) to the current plant) funded Adolf Hitler soooo extensively some called him "Hitler's Angel."
There would not have been a WWII if not for American industrial funding of Hitler prior to the war and through out!

Perhaps the slickest of the lot is George H.W. Bush who not only invaded Iraq ( on bogus Intel later proved to be false) but got the UN to go along with it and FUND IT. So we all got snookered into bombing the crap out of Iraq in
a great crap shoot for American industry funded by the world. The only reason junior is in trouble with some business types is because of this. He mismanaged the war and Americans are actually having to pay for it. If not...ya gotta wonder if anyone would notice. This little charmer even volunteered for WWII and had a photographer following him around to catch when he was shot down (he bailed and two crew members died).
Meanwhile he came back home to build the CIA and use ex Nazis within it to build a shadow govt in direct opposition to the DEMOCRATIC state. The CIA within the CIA.
He orchestrates a great deal behind the scenes and what they cannot bilk from the American taxpayer to terrorize the poor abroad, the Saudis provide. (Like Iran Contra)

One might as well call American media BUSH BROADCASTING. (GE funded Nazi Germany and they own NBC)

HOW ELSE could a family of such clearly criminal, war mongering credentials escape the news media for so long.

The USA is involved in an illegal, immoral, invasion and occupation of Iraq - the genocide of which is constantly minimized. The people attempting to defend their land should MORE CORRECTLY be called PATRIOTS...the Americans are the INVADERS....and the truth
is in the facts. The Iraqi REVOLUTION is only a civil war because the CIA did its best to start a civil war...just as they did in South America and anywhere else they have been. Get the people fighting internally, then steal their oil and sell off their children. God read the history of South America and what the US DOES around the world. Haiti...is close check that out!

The complete corruption of US corporate media.

No wonder the USA is constantly at war.

THOSE WHO DO NOT KNOW THEIR HISTORY ARE CONDEMNED TO REPEAT IT !

How about reporting it eh?
Indeed having stood down for 9/11 this facsimile of a human being has stood ON IT...acting as if HE did something heroic on that date!
He did something historic, he did something criminal...and it was not reported...by anyone in the land of the free and home of the brave.
The country where free speech only seems to matter if it is being used to project hatred toward a specific group (anyone not an ignorant white male).

He should be in Gitmo for life with Sept 11 emblazoned on the wall, and John Ashcroft singing "Let the Eagle Soar" (endlessly) interrupted only
by the sound of Cheney's shotgun and a brief video of Cheney shooting (ok in the butt) Scalia while hunting.

Why is it in a democracy of 300 million people that the same tired reptilian brains show up in office and placed at every major news outlet.

Let's boot the lot and DEMAND
balance in broadcasting.

TURN ON TO TRUTH - OR TURN OFF.

BOYCOTT BUSH BROADCASTING.

No Story?

BUSH-NAZI LINK CONFIRMED

Documents in National Archives Prove George W. Bush's Grandfather Traded with Nazis - Even After Pearl Harbor by John Buchanan (Exclusive to the New Hampshire Gazette)

WASHINGTON - After 60 years of inattention and even denial by the U.S. media, newly-uncovered government documents in The National Archives and Library of Congress reveal that Prescott Bush, the grandfather of President George W. Bush, served as a business partner of and U.S. banking operative for the financial architect of the Nazi war machine from 1926 until 1942, when Congress took aggressive action against Bush and his "enemy national" partners.


The documents also show that Bush and his colleagues, according to reports from the U.S. Department of the Treasury, tried to conceal their financial alliance with German industrialist Fritz Thyssen, a steel and coal baron who, beginning in the mid-1920s, personally funded Adolf Hitler's rise to power by the subversion of democratic principle and German law. Furthermore, the declassified records demonstrate that Bush and his associates, who included E. Roland Harriman, younger brother of American icon W. Averell Harriman, and George Herbert Walker, President Bush's maternal great-grandfather, continued their dealings with the German industrial tycoon for nearly a year after the U.S. entered the war.

No Story?

For six decades these historical facts have gone unreported by the mainstream U.S. media. The essential facts have appeared on the Internet and in relatively obscure books, but were dismissed by the media and Bush family as undocumented diatribes. This story has also escaped the attention of "official" Bush biographers, Presidential historians and publishers of U.S. history books covering World War II and its aftermath. The White House did not respond to phone calls seeking comment.


The Summer of '42

The unraveling of the web of Bush-Harriman-Thyssen U.S. enterprises, all of which operated out of the same suite of offices at 39 Broadway in New York under the supervision of Prescott Bush, began with a story that ran simultaneously in the New York Herald-Tribune and Washington Post on July 31, 1941. By then, the U.S. had been at war with Germany for nearly eight months. "Hitler's Angel Has $3 Million in U.S. Bank," declared the front-page Herald-Tribune headline. The lead paragraph characterized Fritz Thyssen as "Adolf Hitler's original patron a decade ago." In fact, the steel and coal magnate had aggressively supported and funded Hitler since October 1923, according to Thyssen's autobiography, I Paid Hitler. In that book, Thyssen also acknowledges his direct personal relationships with Adolf Hitler, Joseph Goebbels and Rudolf Hess. The Herald-Tribune also cited unnamed sources who suggested Thyssen's U.S. "nest egg" in fact belonged to "Nazi bigwigs" including Goebbels, Hermann Goering, Heinrich Himmler, or even Hitler himself.

After the "Hitler's Angel" article was published Bush and Harriman made no attempts to divest themselves of the controversial Thyssen financial alliance, nor did they challenge the newspaper report that UBC was, in fact, a de facto Nazi front organization in the U.S. Instead, the government documents show, Bush and his partners increased their subterfuge to try to conceal the true nature and ownership of their various businesses, particularly after the U.S. entered the war. The documents also disclose that Cornelis Lievense, Thyssen's personal appointee to oversee U.S. matters for his Rotterdam-based Bank voor Handel en Scheepvaart N.V., via UBC for nearly two decades, repeatedly denied to U.S. government investigators any knowledge of the ownership of the Netherlands bank or the role of Thyssen in it. Brown Brothers Harriman sent letters to the government seeking reconsideration of the seizures by using false information.
The Walker-Harriman-created German industrial alliance also included partnership with another German titan who supported Hitler's rise, Friedrich Flick, who partnered with Thyssen in the German Steel Trust that forged the Nazi war machine. For his role in using slave labor and his own steel, coal and arms resources to build Hitler's war effort, Flick was convicted at the Nuremberg trials and sentenced to prison.
...
Seized On October 20, 1942, under authority of the Trading with the Enemy Act, the U.S. Congress seized UBC and liquidated its assets after the war. The seizure is confirmed by Vesting Order No. 248 in the U.S. Office of the Alien Property Custodian and signed by U.S. Alien Property Custodian Leo T. Crowley. In August, under the same authority, Congress had seized the first of the Bush-Harriman-managed Thyssen entities, Hamburg-American Line, under Vesting Order No. 126, also signed by Crowley. Eight days after the seizure of UBC, Congress invoked the Trading with the Enemy Act again to take control of two more Bush-Harriman-Thyssen businesses - Holland-American Trading Corp. (Vesting Order No. 261) and Seamless Steel Equipment Corp. (Vesting Order No. 259). The documents from the Archives also show that the Bushes and Harrimans shipped valuable U.S. assets, including gold, coal, steel and U.S. Treasury bonds, to their foreign clients overseas between 1931-33, as Hitler engineered his rise to power.

Still No Story?

Since 1942, the information has not appeared in any U.S. news coverage of any Bush political campaign, nor has it been included in any of the major Bush family biographies. It was, however, covered extensively in George H.W. Bush: The Unauthorized Biography, by Webster Tarpley and Anton Chaitkin. Chaitkin's father served as an attorney in the 1940s for some of the victims of the Bush-Harriman-Thyssen businesses.
...
Indeed, if there is such a thing as an axis of evil the Bush family must surely be at the very core. Aided and abetted by decades of paid off media, who keep the essence of truth from the public at all costs.

Whence Cometh This Evil?

Socialized Psychopath, George W Bush, America’s Number One Evildoer
author: Loren Franklin

As a Cherokee/Irish/French American, I watch in amazement as my country continually allows the destruction of the worlds poorest peoples and their eco systems by socialized psychopathic plutocrats. We elect them. We idolize them. We suffer at their hands. George W Bush is the worst to come along in years.



It has been my observation that this country has an ongoing, self destructive, annoying habit of appointing sociopaths and socialized psychopaths to political posts. It seems that we are fascinated by these personality types. We make them out to be heroes in our movies. We admire them when they climb to the top of corporate ladders and devastate the lives of less fortunate humans in Third World sweat shops, not to mention American sweat shops. I offer you Phil Knight of Nike as a quick example. We make national heroes out of mass murders and fill our children's history books with half truths and outright lies about them. And now, here in "The Land Of The Free And The Brave," we have appointed to the presidency, via the CIA and the Supreme Court, one of the most psychopathic individuals to ever stalk the halls of the White House.

Komisar’s article is presented at the end of the following supplemental analysis that is based on my book The Oklahoma City Bombing Revelations. The book can be downloaded for free here or here.
In her article, Lucy Komisar mentions Saudi Prince Turki Faisal who was deeply involved with BCCI and Dana Rohrabacher and Orrin Hatch who were both also involved in BCCI operations. Prince Turki called former CIA station chief Vincent Cannistraro the day of the OKC bombing and claimed that Saudi intelligence knew that Iraq had hired 7 Pakistanis connected to the mujahidin to help carry out the OKC bombing. Refer to my book chapter THE “REASONS” WHY ROHRABACHER MADE HIS OKC BOMBING INVESTIGATION AND REPORT DEFICIENT.

Money raised by drug trafficking was laundered through BCCI to help finance “off the books” covert operations to buy weapons for Iran in exchange for US hostages and helping Nicaraguan rebels (Iran Contra), to support the mujahidin fighting the Soviets in Afghanistan and to transfer US WMD technologies and materials to Iraq via Ishan Barbouti, Ramzi Yousef and the BCCI assisted BNL bank branch in Atlanta, Georgia.

From the Merchants of Death and Sam Bush, to Hitler's Angel - Prescott Bush, to the Saudis
cipher H.W. Bush to Carlyle's Christ George W....
the Bush's are at the core of every war.

Isn't it time we brought this lame excuse for justice to justice and restored a measure of integrity to American civilization (or what is left of it)?

Para Vida, for true life - live in truth. We were doing the best we could - now we know better.

Four Million Refugees Flee From Illegal Invasion/Occupation of Iraq

Iraq’s Humanitarian Crisis Continues To Grow, Ignored By the U.S.

By Kathy Friday, April 20, 2007 Permalink

The United Nations held a conference in Geneva earlier this week to draw world attention to the huge and ever-growing humanitarian crisis in Iraq and the countries surrounding Iraq, as a result of the U.S. war against Iraq and the apocalyptic violence that war has created. It is, of course, entirely understandable that the horrifying daily violence occurring in Iraq would dominate headlines, but, ironically, that violence is masking another, massive reality of human suffering:

The United Nations was able, at least for a few hours, to draw public attention away from the bombings and attacks that have become routine in Iraq and direct it towards another, equally painful, aspect of the conflict — the humanitarian crisis suffered by nearly four million refugees and internally displaced persons.
The U.N. effort to highlight the drastic conditions faced by Iraqi refugees was only relatively successful, however, as Wednesday, the second day of its two-day conference on their humanitarian needs, was one of the bloodiest days in Iraq since the March 2003 U.S.-led invasion.
Media reports indicated that an estimated 170 people were killed by four bombs Wednesday in Iraq, where an average of 100 civilians were killed daily in 2006, according to figures from the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC).[…]


However, there are no plans to move some two million Iraqi refugees, most of whom are in countries bordering Iraq. For example, more than one million have fled across the border to Syria and around 750,000 to Jordan.
Industrialised nations ruled out the possibility of taking in groups of Iraqi asylum seekers, and merely expressed a willingness to provide financial support for Syria and Jordan.
But Bill Frelick, refugee policy director at the New York-based Human Rights Watch, called for special assistance from the United States and Britain, the two main allies in the military coalition that invaded Iraq four years ago.
On one hand they should “provide money to help build schools and health infrastructure to allow people to live in dignity in Syria and Jordan in particular, but in other countries as well in the region, like Lebanon and Egypt,” Frelick told IPS.



He also said there should be a “human sharing of responsibility, and that involves resettlement for refugees.”So far, the United States has indicated that it is willing to resettle 7,000 refugees, but “in fact the number that they actually are going to take this year will probably be less than half of that amount,” said the activist, who added that “the UK has made no commitment of that sort at all.”


I have seen no mention at all in the mainstream press, or in the blogosphere, of this conference or of the humanitarian crisis in Iraq. The only reason I know about it is because that indispensable news blog, Cursor.org, mentioned it in its weekend edition. Between the Alberto Gonzales hearings, the Virginia Tech shootings, and the uproar among war enthusiasts occasioned by Harry Reid making the perfectly unremarkable observation that the United States has lost the Iraq war, there seems to be no space or time to write about four million Iraqis turned into refugees.
