Webster Tarpley: the most incisive critic of Anglo-American hegemony. As an activist historian he is best known for his book- George Bush: The Unauthorized Biography (1992), a masterpiece of research which is still a must read. He is a 9/11 Truth Scholar and activist; AB Princeton 1966, summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa; Fulbright Scholar at University of Turin, Italy; and MA in humanities from Skidmore College. He is fluent in Italian, German, French, Latin and Russian. A decades-long expert on international terrorism, his 1978 study for the Italian parliament "Chi ha ucciso Aldo Moro?"(Who Killed Aldo Moro?) broke open the ownership of the "Red Brigades" by NATO's clandestine "stay-behind" networks.

WHAT'S GOING ON IN OUR SOLAR SYSTEM?
Evidence Grows for an Ocean Inside Saturn’s Moon, Enceladus
http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/multimedia/flash/Enceladus/enceladus.html
As the Cassini space probe continues to study Saturn and its system of moons, the evidence is mounting that one of those moons, Enceladus, may have liquid water beneath its surface. Combine this intriguing possibility with the fact that a wide array of organic compounds have also been detected on that body, and it makes Enceladus one of the most fascinating places to look for extraterrestrial life. The special interest in this little moon began in 2005, when Cassini observed huge jets of vapor and particles coming from parallel cracks on Enceladus’ surface. Cassini obtained a spectrogram of the material in one of the plumes by sampling the light from a star as it passed behind the plume. To the amazement of scientists, the plume was loaded with water vapor and other chemicals necessary to produce life. Not only that, but the cracks from which the geysers were coming, nicknamed “tiger stripes,” were actually deep valleys providing protected areas where nature could perform the delicate chemistry of forming life. As you can imagine, Enceladus has been the object of intense scrutiny ever since.
One of the main questions that are being asked is, where’s the water coming from? Since the initial discovery, scientists have been tossing around the interesting idea that there may be large amounts of water beneath the surface of Enceladus. If this turns out to be true, there are further questions: just how much water, and how deep is it? There is even the tantalizing possibility that Enceladus may have an internal ocean, which would be an even better place for life to start than the tiger stripes ... Full Article

Sunday 29 November 2009
The next Ice Age could take only weeks to engulf Britain. Scientists say the last great disruption to the Gulf Stream 12,800 years ago took only a couple of months to trigger a massive plunge in temperatures across Europe.
"It was as if Europe had been shifted 20 degrees north and Ireland moved to Svalbard," said Bill Patterson of Saskatchewan University.
In the Hollywood blockbuster The Day After Tomorrow, an Ice Age was set off in a single day when the Gulf Stream was disrupted. "That is silly," said Patterson. "It couldn't happen that quickly. However, previous estimates that it would take decades to switch off the Gulf Stream are not backed by our work. It could happen in a couple of months."
The Gulf Stream carries tropical heat from the Caribbean to northern Europe but is already being disrupted by meltwater pouring from the Arctic as global warming intensifies. One day it may switch off completely, say scientists.
Such an event occurred 12,800 years ago when a vast lake – created from melting glaciers at the end of last Ice Age – overflowed and poured into the north Atlantic, blocking the Gulf Stream. Europe froze – almost instantly, said Patterson.
His team analysed mud samples from Lough Monreagh in Ireland and discovered layers of white sediment made up of calcite crystals from algae. "Then abruptly the sediment turned black. This stuff contained no biological material." In other words, all life in the lake had been extinguished in less than three months. "It was very sudden," added Patterson, "and it could happen again."

China-Pakistan Military Links Upset India
Manmohan Singh, India’s prime minister, this week told the US Council on Foreign Relations that China had become more “assertive” in the region.
November 27 2009 19:57
India signalled its deep unease on Friday over growing military ties between China and Pakistan when A.K. Antony, the defence minister, said the partnership was a “serious concern” to New Delhi.
India’s defence and intelligence officials worry about China’s rising influence in south Asia and the Indian Ocean region, and its territorial claims beyond its borders on the Tibet plateau.
Manmohan Singh, India’s prime minister, this week told the US Council on Foreign Relations that China had become more “assertive” in the region. “The increasing nexus between China and Pakistan in the military sphere remains an area of serious concern,” Mr Antony said in an address at the Institute for Defence Studies and Analyses in New Delhi.
“We have to carry out continuous appraisals of Chinese military capabilities and shape our responses accordingly. At the same time, we need to be vigilant at all times.”
His comments come days after Pakistan launched a domestic-ally-assembled fighter aircraft built in collaboration with China as part of a broader development of military hardware. .... (read more)
Breaking News and Commentary from Citizens For Legitimate Government
Breaking: Obomba holiday weekend bad news PentaPost leak: Troop deployment to begin shortly after Obama's war strategy speech Saturday 28 Nov 2009 3:56 PM [LOL!] Days after President Obama outlines his new war 'strategy' in a speech Tuesday, as many as 9,000 Marines will begin deploying to southern Afghanistan to renew an assault on a Taliban stronghold that stalled earlier this year amid a troop shortage and political pressure from the Afghan government, senior U.S. officials said. The extra Marines -- the first to move into the country as part of Obama's escalation of the Bush's eight-year-old war -- will double the size of the U.S. force in the southern province of Helmand and provide a critical test for Afghan President Hamid Karzai's struggling government and Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal's counterinsurgency strategy. The Marines will quickly be followed by about 1,000 U.S. Army trainers, who will deploy as early as February to speed the growth of the Afghan National Army and police force, military officials said. The revised plan, which faces a war-weary and increasingly skeptical American public, is expected to call for 30,000-35,000 new troops in a phased deployment over the next 12 to 18 months.
Black sites we can believe in: US Secret Prison Still Operating On Bagram Air Base --While two of the prisoners were captured before the Obama administration took office, one was captured in June of this year. 29 Nov 2009 An American military detention camp in Afghanistan is still secretly holding inmates for sometimes weeks at a time and without access to the International Committee of the Red Cross, according to human rights researchers and former detainees held at the site on the Bagram Air Base. The site, known to detainees prisoners as the black jail, consists of individual windowless concrete cells, each illuminated by a single light bulb glowing 24 hours a day. In interviews, former prisoners said that their only human contact was at twice-daily interrogation sessions... While Mr. Obama signed an order to eliminate so-called black sites run by the Central Intelligence Agency in January, that order did not apply to this jail, which is run by military Special Operations forces. Military officials said as recently as this summer that the Afghanistan jail and another like it at the Balad Air Base in Iraq were being used to interrogate high-value detainees. And officials said recently that there were no plans to close the jails.
Canada bill clears way to sue foreign torturers 26 Nov 2009 An opposition lawmaker unveiled Thursday proposed legislation that would allow victims of torture to sue the perpetrators, including foreign states and officials, in Canadian courts. "Our present legislation criminalizes torture, war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide -- the most heinous acts known to humankind," said opposition Liberal MP and former justice minister Irwin Cotler. "But Canadian law does not allow a civil remedy for the victims of such horrific acts. This legislation will: address the evil of such international crimes; target the impunity of those states and officials that perpetrate these crimes; remove the state immunity that operates to shield the perpetrators of such crimes; and finally allow Canadian victims to secure justice."
'Gatherings that may disturb the public order must not take place.' Denmark approves new police powers ahead of Copenhagen --Controversial legislation gives police sweeping powers of 'pre-emptive' arrest and extends custodial sentences for acts of civil disobedience 27 Nov 2009 The Danish parliament today passed legislation which will give police sweeping powers of "pre-emptive" arrest and extend custodial sentences for acts of civil disobedience. The "deeply worrying" law comes ahead of the UN climate talks which start on 7 December and are expected to attract thousands of activists from next week. Under the new powers, Danish police will be able to detain people for up to 12 hours whom they suspect might break the law in the near future. Protesters could also be jailed for 40 days under the hurriedly drafted legislation dubbed by activists as the "turmoil and riot" law. The Danish ministry of justice said that the new powers of "pre-emptive" detention would increase from 6 to 12 hours and apply to international activists... The Danish police also separately issued a statement in August applying new rules and regulations for protests at the climate conference, warning that "gatherings that may disturb the public order must not take place".
Wisconsin health officers can order guards be put on infectious people --Douglas County joins others in state with isolation and quarantine policy 27 Nov 2009 Wisconsin counties have a little-known policy that allows forced isolation or quarantine of people using armed law enforcement and deputized civilians. This is to help health officials in a worst-case scenario to contain outbreaks... The policy includes isolating people infected or even suspected of being infected with a contagious disease such as tuberculosis or in a flu pandemic. Douglas County Health Officer Deb Clasen says every county health officer in the state can now order that guards be put on infectious people. Washburn County Sheriff Terry Dryden says this is a tool that may be needed at flu vaccination clinics as well.
'U.S. Forces--Iraq' 'Multi-National' to drop from U.S. unit names in Iraq 28 Nov 2009 One of the last vestiges of the "coalition of the willing" [bribed] in Iraq will soon be retired. As part of a consolidation of its command structure ahead of next year’s planned troop reductions, the U.S. military will drop the "Multi-National" name from its unit designations starting in January. Under the plan, the top two levels of the U.S. command, known as Multi-National Forces--Iraq and Multi-National Corps--Iraq, will be merged and renamed U.S. Forces--Iraq. The U.S. command that oversees training of Iraqi forces will also fall into the new command.
Iraq War was legal but not 'legitimate' 28 Nov 2009 The Iraq War was legal but not "legitimate" for a democratic country, Britain's former UN ambassador said yesterday. Sir Jeremy Greenstock told the Iraq inquiry that the 2003 invasion did not have the backing of the UN or the majority of British people, "so there was a failure to establish legitimacy". He said he believed the US and the UK could establish legality under UN resolutions if Iraq was shown to have breached disarmament rules. But a "final" verdict was never likely to be made.

US lamestream media *finally* reports Chilcot inquiry: UK diplomat: US was 'hell bent' on Iraq invasion 27 Nov 2009 The United States was "hell bent" on a 2003 military invasion of Iraq and actively undermined efforts by Britain to win international authorization for the war, a former British diplomat told an inquiry Friday. Jeremy Greenstock, British ambassador to the United Nations from 1998 to 2003, said that President [sic] George W. Bush had no real interest in attempts to agree on a U.N. resolution to provide explicit backing for the conflict. The ex-diplomat, who served as Britain's envoy in Iraq after the invasion, said serious preparations for the war had begun in early 2002 and took on an unstoppable momentum.
Gordon Brown announces timetable for Helmand handover to Afghan control 28 Nov 2009 The countdown to handing back Helmand province to Afghan control began yesterday when Gordon Brown announced a detailed exit timetable.

Mr Brown will also formally commit to sending 500 more troops this week taking Britain's military presence in the country to 9,500.

Germany, UK warn Iran to accept West offer 28 Nov 2009 In what appears to be a last-ditch effort to force Tehran into accepting an IAEA draft proposal on fuel supply, Germany and Britain warn that world patience is running out with Iran. One day after World powers threw their weight behind a draft resolution condemning Iran's nuclear program, German Foreign Minister Guido Wersterwelle said that although time is pressing, the West "still has its hand extended" for the Tehran government.
US, Israel welcome IAEA resolution against Iran 27 Nov 2009 The US and Israel welcome a decision by the UN nuclear watchdog to censure Iran over the construction of its Fordo enrichment plant.

Bomb suspected as Russian train crash kills 39 28 Nov 2009 At least 39 people were killed and nearly 100 injured when a Russian express train came off the rails late last night in what the head of the national railway company said could have been a bomb attack. The Nevsky Express, carrying 661 passengers from Moscow to St Petersburg, was derailed at 9:34 p.m. (1834 GMT) near the village of Uglovka about 200 miles north of Moscow.
Homeland Suckyourity: Cuban migrants went undetected for hours at Turkey Point --More than 30 Cubans were dropped off close to the 'heavily guarded' [Yup, in quotes] Turkey Point nuclear power plant and remained undetected until they called for help hours later. 28 Nov 2009 More than 30 Cubans, dropped off by a smugglers' speedboat, spent up to eight hours on the off-limits grounds of the Turkey Point nuclear power plant on Thanksgiving Day, then called the plant's nuclear control room to say they were by the cooling canals. The utility, which boasts of tight security in the area, did not address why its security personnel apparently did not become aware of the Cubans' presence on Turkey Point for up to eight hours.
White House gatecrashers got all the way to the president 29 Nov 2009 Michelle and Barack Obama’s first state dinner at the White House will be remembered for its gatecrashers. The White House has been forced to admit that Michaele and Tareq Salahi, the Virginian couple auditioning for a television reality show, not only brazenly walked through layers of security to attend the event but actually met the president. A photograph released by the White House showed Michaele shaking hands with a beaming Obama as her husband looked on. It prompted an abject apology from the secret service.
Secret Service apologizes for ticketless couple's access --Questions linger over checkpoint breakdowns at White House dinner 28 Nov 2009 The White House said late Friday that Michaele and Tareq Salahi, the Virginia couple auditioning for a Bravo reality show, not only got past layers of experienced, executive-branch security but also shook the president's hand in the Blue Room of the White House during the Obamas' first state dinner... The security breach has caused hand-wringing inside the White House, bewilderment among Tuesday night's guests -- and late on Friday, prompted an apology from the Secret Service.
Computer hacker Gary McKinnon to be extradited to US --Alan Johnson quashes last-ditch attempt to halt extradition 26 Nov 2009 Computer hacker Gary McKinnon, who has Asperger's syndrome, is at serious risk of suicide, relatives said today, after the home secretary rejected a last-ditch attempt to prevent his extradition to the US. In a letter today Alan Johnson ordered McKinnon's removal to the US on charges of breaching US military and Nasa computers, despite claims by his lawyers that extradition would make the 43-year-old's death "virtually certain".
U.S. journalist grilled at Canada border crossing --Officials demanded to know what she would say publicly about 2010 Olympics 26 Nov 2009 U.S. journalist Amy Goodman said she was stopped at a Canadian border crossing south of Vancouver on Wednesday and questioned for 90 minutes by authorities concerned she was coming to Canada to speak against the Olympics. Goodman says Canadian Border Services Agency officials ultimately allowed her to enter Canada but returned her passport with a document demanding she leave the country within 48 hours.
Police accused of preventing suspects accessing lawyers 27 Nov 2009 Defendants are being denied a fair trial because police pressure deters them from being represented by a lawyer after their arrest, a survey reveals today. Solicitors questioned by the National Audit Office (NAO) say they believe that the reason half of all suspects do not use their free services is a direct result of the action - or inaction - of the police.
FDA OKs Novartis Vaccine Against Seasonal Flu In Fast Review 27 Nov 2009 The Food and Drug Administration approved a new Novartis AG flu vaccine, Agriflu, in an accelerated process Friday. The vaccine to prevent disease caused by influenza virus subtypes A and B is for people age 18 and older. It does not prevent the H1N1 virus, also known as swine flu. The Swiss drug maker... on Tuesday opened a vaccine-manufacturing plant in North Carolina designed to make [deadly] flu vaccines without relying on decades-old technology that employs millions of chicken eggs to grow viruses. [See: New US vaccine production techniques: Genetically modified insect cells, E. coli, caterpillar ovaries 24 Nov 2009 Spurred by $487 million in federal funding, a sprawling new vaccine factory is opening in North Carolina Tuesday that will produce shots using dog cells instead of chicken eggs.]
Bacterial Disease Linked to H1N1 Flu Worries CDC 25 Nov 2009 The CDC is warning about a "worrisome" rise in the incidence of pneumococcal disease associated with the [lab-generated] pandemic H1N1 flu.

The right reform for the Fed By Ben Bernanke 29 Nov 2009 Our [The Fed] financial statements are public and audited by an outside accounting firm; we publish our balance sheet weekly; and we provide monthly reports with extensive information on all the temporary lending facilities developed during the crisis. Congress, through the Government Accountability Office, can and does audit all parts of our operations except for the monetary policy deliberations and actions covered by the 1978 exemption. The general repeal of that exemption would serve only to increase the perceived influence of Congress on monetary policy decisions, which would undermine the confidence the public and the markets have in the Fed to act in the long-term economic interest of the nation.

Bloomberg Spent $102 Million to Win 3rd Term 28 Nov 2009 To eke out an election victory over the city’s low-key comptroller, Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg spent $102 million of his own fortune -- or about $174 per vote -- according to data released Friday, making his bid for a third term the most expensive campaign in the city’s history. Mr. Bloomberg, the wealthiest man in New York City, shattered his own records: He poured $85 million into his campaign in 2005 (or $112 per vote) and $74 million into his first bid for office in 2001 ($99 per vote).
Canadian researcher says arctic ice is thinning 27 Nov 2009 The permanent Arctic sea ice that is home to the world's polar bears and usually survives the summer has all but disappeared, a Canadian researcher said Friday. University of Manitoba Arctic researcher David Barber said experts around the world believed the ice was recovering because satellite images showed it expanding, but the thick, multiyear frozen sheets have been replaced by thin ice that cannot support the weight of a polar bear.
Previous lead stories: Signed In Blood: 2002 Blair-Bush Texas meeting sealed Iraq fate 27 Nov 2009 Saddam Hussein's fate as Iraqi leader was sealed at a secret meeting between Tony Blair and George Bush in 2002, it was claimed yesterday. The former Prime Minister allegedly "signed in blood" Britain's support for an attack on Baghdad when he got together with the US president [sic] at his Texas ranch. And Mr Blair deliberately linked Saddam to al-Qaeda in a bid to strengthen the case to topple Saddam, despite there being no evidence, the Iraq War inquiry heard.

Former top official 'can't say' if Afghans tortured 26 Nov 2009 There is "no evidence" Canadian detainees transferred to Afghan jails were tortured, but Canada didn’t monitor them during 2006 and part of 2007 and reports of prison abuse were common, a senior diplomat told a committee of MPs Thursday.

"I can’t say whether he was or wasn’t," Mulroney said.
