BRITISH POLICE STATE WILL BE COMING TO USA NEWS
WHAT'S NEW IN THE BRITISH POLICE STATE?
We last checked in with the British police state about two months ago. Let’s see what’s new.
British bus passengers could soon be forced to use electronic tags to get onto buses. This fits in with the British government's move away from paper checks and toward an electronic system to be implemented by 2018. The best part of an electronic bus pass is that it will surely help prevent bus-based terrorism.
Britain is also making sure its schools are safe. Four-year-olds are being monitored for “radicalization,” and five-year-olds are being taught sexual education.
After all, there is nothing worse than a sexually naive five-year-old who is also a terrorist.
British school teachers have also been given the authority to frisk school children and (More)

Daily Life in Yemen
An ancient land that globalization seems to have passed by, Yemen -- where the “underpants bomber” allegedly trained for his failed Christmas Day attack -- is not just about Islamic extremism, choking traffic, and crushing poverty.
Between playing with his friends, who have also set up impromptu fruit stands, a young boy patiently waits for tourists in the shadow of Dar al-Hajjar, the 17th century summer residence of Imam Yahya.
Roughly half of Yemen’s population is under the age of 15, and many forgo school to help support their families by working.
YEMEN
Manhattan of the desert: The ancient walled city of Shibam, situated in the vast Wadi Hadramaut in eastern Yemen, dates back to the fourth century A.D. Most of its towering “skyscrapers,” made of sun-dried mud bricks, were built in the 16th century or later. Some 7,000 residents still inhabit the narrow streets of this UNESCO World Heritage site.
YEMEN
East meets Middle East: The 11th century port city of Al Mukalla, located along the Gulf of Aden, was badly damaged during Yemen’s civil war, but remains an important center for the fishing industry. The mixture of architectural styles that still dominate local buildings reflect its history as a key trading post between India and Africa.

Valley of the queen: The village of Jibla is located in the midst of the fertile valleys and terraced mountainsides of southwestern Yemen. Jibla served as the capital of the Sulayhid empire during the latter 11th and early 12th centuries, prospering greatly under the rule of Queen Arwa. The distinctive minaret of the mosque she built still rises gracefully above the town.

U.S., NATO Expand Afghan War To Horn Of Africa And Indian Ocean  Global Research, January 8, 2010 In parallel with the escalation of the war in South Asia - counterinsurgency operations in Afghanistan and drone missile attacks in Pakistan - the United States and its NATO allies have laid the groundwork for increased naval, air and ground operations in the Horn of Africa and the Gulf of Aden. During the past month the U.S. has carried out deadly military strikes in Yemen: Bombing raids in the north and cruise missile attacks in the south of the nation. Washington has been accused of killing scores of civilians in the attacks in both parts of the country, executed before the December 25 Northwest Airlines incident that has been used to justify the earlier U.S. actions ex post facto. And, ominously, that has been exploited to pound a steady drumbeat of demands for expanded and even more direct military intervention. The Pentagon's publicly disclosed military and security program for Yemen grew from $4.6 million in 2006 to $67 million last year. "That figure does not include covert, classified assistance that the United States has provided." [1] In addition, "Under a new classified cooperation agreement, the U.S. would be able to fly cruise missiles, fighter jets or unmanned armed drones against targets in the country, but would remain publicly silent on its role in the airstrikes." [2] On January 1 General David Petraeus, the chief of the Pentagon's Central Command, in charge of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq as well as operations in Yemen and Pakistan, was in the Iraqi capital of Baghdad and said of deepening military involvement in Yemen, "We have, it's well known, about $70 million in security assistance last year. That will more than double this coming year." [3] The following day Petraeus was in the capital of Yemen where he met with the country's president, Ali Abdullah Saleh, to discuss "continued U.S. support in rooting out the terrorist cells." [4] White House counterterrorism adviser (Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism) John Brennan briefed President Barack Obama on Petraeus' visit to Washington's new war theater and afterward stated "We have made Yemen a priority over the course of this year, and this is the latest in that effort." [5] The alleged terrorist cells in question are identified by U.S. and other Western governments as being affiliated with al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP). However, on January 4 CNN reported that "A senior U.S. official cited a rebellion by Huti [Houthi] tribes in the north, and secessionist activity in the southern tribal areas" as of concern to Washington. [6] The Houthis' confessional background is Shi'a and not Sunni Islam and the opposition forces in the south are led by the Yemeni Socialist Party, so attempts to link either with al-Qaeda are inaccurate, self-serving and dishonest.

HUMOR(?) TEACHER ARRESTED IN NEW YORK A public school teacher was arrested today at John F. Kennedy International Airport as he attempted to board a flight while in possession of a ruler, a protractor, a compass, a slide-rule and a calculator.. At a morning press conference, the Attorney General said he believes the man is a member of the notorious Al-Gebra movement. He did not identify the man, who has been charged by the FBI with carrying weapons of math instruction. 'Al-Gebra is a problem for us', the Attorney General said. 'They derive solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in search of absolute values.' They use secret code names like 'X' and 'Y' and refer to themselves as 'unknowns', but we have determined that they belong to a common denominator of the axis of medieval with coordinates in every country. As the Greek philanderer Isosceles used to say, 'There are 3 sides to every triangle'. When asked to comment on the arrest, President Obama said, 'If God had wanted us to have better weapons of math instruction, he would have given us more fingers and toes.' White House aides told reporters they could not recall a more intelligent or profound statement by the President. It is believed that the Nobel Prize for Physics will follow---- |
On this day in history:
In 1768, the first modern circus was staged in London. In 1788, Connecticut became the fifth U.S. state. In 1861, Mississippi seceded from the Union. In 1945, in World War II, U.S. troops invaded the Philippine island of Luzon and liberated Manila. In 1951, the U.N. headquarters opens in New York. In 1969, the British-French supersonic Concorde jetliner made its first test flight at Bristol, England. In 1972, the luxury liner Queen Elizabeth was gutted by fire while docked in Hong Kong. In 1996, rebels in the Russian republic of Chechnya overran the town of Kizlyar and took 2,000 hostages at a hospital and in nearby homes. In 2004, a Kenyan survey said about 1 million adults were infected with HIV in the country, one-third of previous estimates. In 2007, fierce fighting was reported in Baghdad between Sunni Muslim insurgents and Iraqi forces backed by U.S. troops and air assaults. Fighting flared soon after a new security plan for the city was announced. Also in 2007, Venezuelan stocks fell almost 19 percent -- their biggest drop on record – and the country's currency lost almost one-third of its value after President Hugo Chavez pledged to nationalize the country's utilities. In 2008, U.S. President George W. Bush began a trip to the Middle East, including his first visit as president to Israel. After meeting with Palestinian leaders, Bush called for an end to Israeli "occupation that began in 1967." Also in 2008, the top U.N. peacekeeper warned the U.N. Security Council of a "grave deterioration" in security in Sudan's embattled Darfur region. In 2009, Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich was impeached on abuse of power charges, including accusations that he tried to sell President-elect Barack Obama's empty U.S. Senate seat. The vote was 114-1. |
