إنهم المسيحيون الحقيقيون ...يحبون أعدائهم ويباركون لاعنيهم ، ويشحذون سكاكين ذابحيهم


"Live Like Mohamed. Fight Like 'Ali. Die Like Hussein."


إنهم المسيحيون الحقيقيون ...يحبون أعدائهم ويباركون لاعنيهم ، ويشحذون سكاكين ذابحيهم

....حقاَ إن هذه الروح الحسينية تستحق الإجلال

الشيعة والحسم صنوان متلاصقان ولكنهما ضدان لا يلتقيان ، يحسمون معاركهم إنتصارات بالدم أو بالسيف ، بالدم مقتولين دون أن يستسلموا أو بالسيف منتصرين، ولكنهم مع ذلك كانوا الخاسرين سياسيا على الدوام .
كانت ثورات التوابين والثقفي في القرون الهجرية الاولى نصرا عسكريا كبيرا مدفوعا بتضحية الحسين وشهادته، ولكن نظرة عدم القداسة التي تعامل بها زين العابدين مع الثورة وعدم قناعته بدنيوية أهدافها أعادت الامويين إلى قصورهم في ارض السواد.
في البحرين- القرن الخامس عشر الميلادي- الممتد من عمان إلى شرقي ما يعرف بالسعودية اليوم أغلبية شيعية خاضت معارك للحفاظ على إستقلالها الذاتي أو الناجز ولكن تلك الجماعات المنتصرة كانت تحول إنتصارها العسكري إلى هزائم سياسية بقبولها حكم أسر سنية مهاجرة لم تكن تلبث أن تسيطر على مقاليد الحكم حتى تبدأ بانزال الظلم برعاياها الشيعة كما حصل مع حكام البحرين الحاليين ومع ابناء مبارك الكبير في الكويت .
تاريخ العراق الحديث أشد وضوحا من اي تجربة شيعية أخرى، فقد قاد علمائهم ثورة العشرين ضد البريطانيين حتى أنهكوا الامبراطورية العظمى فلجأت تلك إلى منح الملك صلاحيات حقيقة أسست للحكم العربي المستقل في العراق فربح الشيعة الحرب ولم يطالبوا بالمكافأة فخسروا ما يقرب من قرن كامل من تاريخهم التالي حيث إضطروا بعد ذلك للقبول بصفة مواطني الدرجة الثانية تحت حكم يدين بالفضل لهم ولكنه أول من أنكرهم على صعيد الوظائف والتوزير والمنافع الدنيوية والتنموية والتعليمية .
في تاريخ الشيعة كثير من الرغبة بالحسم الثوري والعسكري ، والاكثر منها صفحات تمتليء بالخيبات السياسية ، لعله القدر أو النوستالجي الكربلائية التي تقاتل لأجل موت يشبه موت الحسين ، شهادة كاملة لأجل آخرين ولكن من رافضيهم ومعذبيهم ومضطهديهم، وفداء طوباويا خاليا من المقابل الدنيوي .
منذ تلك الحقبة وحتى إنتصار الثورة الاسلامية في إيران لم يحسم الشيعة معركة فاصلة لمصلحتهم ، بل كانوا في كل مرة يثورون ضد ظالم ينتهون بقبول التسوية وتحكيم غيرهم في رقابهم باسم قداستهم وزهدهم بالحكم تارة ، وباسم الامة الاسلامية مرات وباسم القومية والناصرية والبعثية والقضية الفلسطينية مرات ومرات.
بالشيعة قامت ثورة اليسار المسلحة في حرب السنتين، وبالشيعة إمتلك كمال جنبلاط قوة عسكرية، وبالشيعة تضخمت اعداد مقاتلي فتح وفتحت ابواب البيوت والقلوب للفدائيين في جنوب لبنان بعد خروجهم من الاردن ، فكانت النتيجة تسلط ميليشيات فتح والمنظمات على الجنوبيين حتى وصلوا إلى درجة الكفر بكل ما قاتلوا من أجله من قبل لولا أن عادوا إلى الجذر الكربلائي فكانت إنتفاضة النبطية في عاشوراء ضد المحتلين فكان منهم راغب حرب ويسار مروة وانور ياسين.
ليست صدفة أن أكثر الشيوعيين العرب إخلاصا لايديولوجية معركة ستالينغراد كانوا من الشيعة أكانو في لبنان أم في العراق.
كانت الثورة الايرانية كما وصفها أحدهم ، رصاصة قادمة من القرن الهجري الاول وأستقرت في قلب القرن العشرين، وتطلع الشيعة إليها لا بوصفها ثورة فارسية بل ثورة حسين جديد ضد يزيد جديد وحسينهم هذا – الخميني – حدد يزيد الجديد باسرائيل وأمريكا فانحاز إليه شيعة لبنان ، واما العرب فانحازوا ضد أنفسهم وشنوا على الحسين معركة كربلاء – قادسية صدام الاميركية – التي بذل من أجلها عرب الردة ملياراتهم السعودية الكويتية والاماراتية – وارواح رجالهم السودانية المصرية المغربية العراقية.
في لبنان التاريخي – بر الشام الغربي – إعتقد الشيعة أن الملك فيصل في الشام هو حسينهم المنتصر فوالوه لانه عربي في مواجهة القرار الفرنسي بانشاء إسرائيل مارونية – مطعمة بزعماء سنة على شاكلة الاقطاعي الانتهازي رياض الصلح ، فدفعوا ثمن موقفهم حرمانا تاريخيا لم يشفع لهم فيه رضاهم اللاحق بالوطن الممسوخ على قياس بطريركية .
ثم رأى الشيعة في السنديانة الحمراء وفي زعماء اليسار حسينهم ثم في ياسر عرفات حسينهم وخاب أملهم بالطرفين .
لم ينتمي الشيعة باعداد كبيرة إلى حزب العقيدة السورية القومية الاجتماعية في البداية ، صار انطون سعادة زعيم اغلبية كبيرة منهم في الخمسينيات بعد إغتياله فتحول إلى حسينهم السوري.
البناء النفسي للجماعة يختلف عن بناء نفسي لفرد قرر التضحية من أجل مبدأ أو وطن أو قضية في لحظة إعتناق أو حماس، يندر أن تتخذ جماعة قرار موحدا بالموت لأجل آخرين.
إنتحاريو القاعدة يموتون كرها لآخرين وحقدا عليهم فياتي الموت في سبيل موت المكروهين لا اكثر ولا أقل وفي مقابل مجزي هو نساء لا يمكن الحصول على متعتهن إلا بالموت، على الاقل هذا ما يعتقده إنتحاريو الكراهية والحقد.
عناصر حزب الله في لبنان حين ينتحرون يطلبون لقاء الحسين حبا بافكاره وبمن مات من أجلهم للتباهي . والاكثر غرابة أن طائفة بامها وابيها تريد الموت لاجل آخرين بدون وعي منها وبلا قرار متخذ.
ما يحدد مقدار التضحية المقبولة عند جماعة ما عن الآخرين ليس أمرا يأتي من دراسة منهجية لفكر سياسي معين، ولا هو وليد إعتناق مرحلي لفكر ومنطق عادلين، العطاء اللانهائي والموت في سبيل أن لا تنتصر ليس قرار حماسيا بل تصرف نفسي روحي يستند إلى ذلك الفهم اللاواعي لدور الشيعي كشيعي في الحياة ....شهادة لاجل الآخرين...
أضاع بري البوصلة في الاجتياح- 1982 - فرضي بما لم يرضاه شيعي قط بعد الحسين....الخروج من المعركة يوم كربلاء (أسطورة العلقمي مجتزأة وخيالية وتسحب تصرف فرد من حاشية خليفة على جماعة كانت بالعرف وفي الموقع في موضع الضد له)
كان الرد سريعا ومن حسين الايراني – الخميني – الذي أكد لتلك المجموعة التي زارته في بداية غزو لبنان – كربلائكم في قتال إسرائيل .
لم يقل لهم إنكم ستنتصرون ، ولم يقل لهم سنقاتل عنكم ، قال لهم سنعطيكم العدة واللوازم وأما الارواح التواقة إلى إستعادة مقتل الحسين فتلك منكم .
هل هي صدفة أن لا يقاتل الجنوب بعد هروب القيادات الفتحاوية ؟
لم يقاتلوا وبعضهم رش الارز على الجيش الغازي (حيث وقعت مجازر ميليشيات فتح ضد الجنوبيين مثل بلدة أنصار مثلا) لانهم لم يعرفوا الحسين هاربا ...الحسين يموت في أرض المعركة ولا يهرب ....
على عكسهم هرب أهالي بيروت السنة وزعمائهم من ياسر عرفات وطالبوه بالرحيل حين حاصرتهم الدبابات الاسرائيلية وكان صائب سلام ولا يزال يمثل رمز طرد ياسر عرفات من بيروت لان إسرائيل لم تدخلها إلا بعد أن رحل ومقاتليه بناء لطلب علني من تجمع سياسي ضم زعماء السنة البيارتة .
هل هي صدفة أن يقاتل الجنوب كما لم يقاتل العرب حين وجد لنفسه حسينا في المقاومة؟
يقول اليسار اللبناني أن السوريين وأمل منعوه من إستكمال المقاومة ، لقد منع حزب الله معهم وهرب أتباعه إلى الجبال لاجل أن يقاتلوا إسرائيل فرأى الناس فيهم حسينا فاعطوهم ما لا يعطيه عاقل .......ارواحهم والقتال فأنتصروا على أمل وعلى السوريين وعادوا إلى القرى الجنوبية منتصرين وأحرار في مقاتلة إسرائيل فهزموها .
هل هي صدفة ان يقاتل الشيعة ويقتلوا في الحرب الاهلية وحين توقفها بقرار اميركي – سوري – سعودي يقبل المقتولين واهاليهم بان تسند الصلاحيات إلى غيرهم والمنافع إلى غير مناطقهم ؟
هل هي صدفة أن يقبل الجنوبيون تدمير قراهم ومدنهم برحابة صدر لأجل عيني سمير القنطار ؟
وهل هي صدفة أن يكون لآل الحكيم اكبر جماهيرية في العراق عند سقوط صدام حسين ثم ينتهي وريثهم عمار لاجئا في السعودية ينكره حتى قائد قواته العسكرية ؟
وهل صدفة أن يقتل مقتدى الصدر خائنا هو عبد المجيد الخوئي فيتحول القاتل إلى أهم قائد شعبي شيعي في العراق ؟

هل هي صدفة أن يقبل الشيعة اللبنانيين برحابة صدر طردهم ومطاردتهم من الخليج ومن مصر إقتصاديا ومن كل الدنيا أمنيا ومخابراتيا لاجل فلسطين وحماس والجهاد ؟
ما لنا ولفلسطين لقال بعضهم خاصة بعد تجربة ابو عمار الفاشلة والمأساوية مع الجنوبيين.
كان في مصلحة الشيعة الدنيوية أن يوقفوا القتال وهم منتصرين في العام 2000، يومها كان يمكن للعالم كله أن يدفع مليارات وترليونات مقابل قرار واضح من حزب الله بترك السلاح، وكان يمكن للاميركيين وللسوريين ان يتفقا على تولية الشيعة كل لبنان كما تولاه الحريري مقابل وعد منه بانهاء السلاح وروح المقاومة ودورها .
كان يمكن لنصرالله ان يصبح زعيما أكبر لكل الطوائف ،وللدولة والجمهورية....
فقط إن ترك فلسطين وشأنها ولو ترك السلاح ومخازنه ، وكان يمكن للشيعة كجماعة طائفية في لبنان أن ينقلبوا على نصرالله وعلى حزبه مرتين....... في الالفين وفي الالفين وستة لانه لم يفعل، لولا تلك النوستالجي التي تسكنهم بيسارهم ويمينهم بملحدهم المعلن وبمؤمنيهم...........إنهم جماعة لا تريد الحياة إلا من أجل الآخرين ...إنهم المسيحيون الحقيقيون ...يحبون أعدائهم ويباركون لاعنيهم ، ويشحذون سكاكين ذابحيهم ....
ما كان للسنيورة أن يستمر في قهرهم سنين ثم ليقبلوا بتوليته من جديد لولا تلك الروح الكربلائية التي لا ترى في الانتصار منافع ومتاعا ودنيا ، وما كانوا ليقبلوا بسعد الحريري رئيسا لحكومة هم أولى بها وهم من مكنها من بناء ما بنته بتحريرهم لبنان من نفوذ الاطلسي أولا ومن إسرائيل ثانيا ...
لو قتل الشرتوني بشيرا ولم يجتاح ذاك الانتحاري مركز المارينز في المطار لبقي الشرتوني يتيما شعبيا.
ولو قتلت لولا عبود ولم ينتفض الجنوبيون في جبشيت وفي معركة وفي الشريط في ايار لماتت لولا ليحيا كريم مروة في قصر قريطم
والياس عطا الله في بكركي

إسرائيل لم تهددها في وجودها تضحيات حزبية كبيرة ومعطاءة ، هي تموت رعبا من جماعة بامها وابيها تلعب دور اسباطة وكربلاء في الوقت عينه ، قتال من يتوق للحياة الباذخة بعد الانتصار ، وصمود حتى الموت لاجل اللحاق بالحسين في السماء .... المشكلة الاكبر أن هذا الارث الشيعي بدأ يبث ذبذباته المعدية إلى ملايين العرب بدءا من فلسطين

ZOG of Canada and the Jewish National Fund....




By YVES ENGLER

Ten days ago, Greg Selinger, the New Democratic Party (NDP) Premier of the Province of Manitoba, and two of his ministers visited Israel. Among other things, the official delegation strengthened the longtime "progressive" government's ties to the Jewish National Fund (JNF). The trip was a sad spectacle that should embarrass every Canadian who opposes racism. Indeed, J.S. Woodsworth, the Winnipeg-based founder of Canada's social democratic party, must be turning in his grave.
The province and JNF signed an accord to jointly develop two bird conservation sites while Manitoba water stewardship Minister Christine Melnick spoke at the opening ceremony for a park built in Jaffa by the JNF, Tel Aviv Foundation and Manitoba-Israel Shared Values Roundtable. During the trip Mel Lazerek, a regional JNF president, was also appointed Manitoba's special representative to Israel for Economic and Community Relations.
Manitoba's ties to this openly racist institution are shocking, but also part of a decades-old pro-Israel policy of the NDP that must be challenged by real progressives.
Shutting out Palestinian citizens of Israel, JNF lands can only be leased by Jews. A 1998 United Nations Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights found that the JNF systematically discriminated against Palestinians in Israel. According to the UN report, JNF lands are "chartered to benefit Jews exclusively," which has led to an "institutionalized form of discrimination." In 2005, Israel's high court came to similar conclusions. It found that the JNF, which owns 13 percent of the country's land and has significant influence over most of the rest, systematically excluded Palestinian citizens from leasing its property.
JNF Canada officials are relatively open about the racist character of the organization. In May 2002, Mark Mendelson, JNF Canada's executive-director for Eastern Canada, explained that "We are trustees between world Jewry and the land of Israel." This sentiment was echoed by JNF Canada's head Frank A. Wilson in July 2009. Wilson stated that the "JNF are the caretakers of the Land of Israel on behalf of its owners, who are the Jewish people everywhere around the world."
Established in 1910, JNF Canada is one of the most important Israel-focused charities registered in Canada. It raises about $10 million annually in tax-deductible donations. Despite projecting itself as "an environmentally friendly organization concerned with ecology and sustainable development," it is a linchpin of Zionist colonialism.
The Canadian branch of the JNF has been directly complicit in Palestinian dispossession. At the end of the 1920s, a JNF representative came to Canada to raise $1 million for the lands of Wadi al-Hawarith (or Hefer Plain). A 30,000 dunam (roughly 7,500 acres) stretch of coastal territory located about half way between Haifa and Tel Aviv, the land was home to a Bedouin community of 1,000 to 1,200 persons. Without consulting the Palestinians living on the land, in 1928 the JNF acquired legal title to Wadi al-Hawarith from an absentee landlord in France.
For four years the tenants of Wadi al-Hawarith resisted British attempts to evict them. In All That Remains historian Walid Khalidi explains that "The insistence of the people of Wadi al-Hawarith to remain on their land came from their conviction that the land belonged to them by virtue of their having lived on it for 350 years. For them, ownership of the land was an abstraction that at most signified the landlords' right to a share of the crop."
The conflict at Wadi al-Hawarith became a lightning rod for the growing Palestinian nationalist movement. In 1933 a general strike was organized in Nablus to support the tenants of Wadi al-Hawarith. Palestinians, especially those without title to their lands, resented the European influx into their homeland.
After the June 1967 War, JNF Canada raised $15 million to build Canada Park on illegally occupied land. Three peaceful villages (Beit Nuba, Imwas and Yalu) were demolished to make way for the park.
Despite repeated attempts, the 5,000 expelled Palestinians were not allowed to return home. A 1986 UN Special Committee reported to the Secretary-General that it considers it "a matter of deep concern that these villagers have persistently been denied the right to return to their land on which Canada Park has been built by the JNF Canada and where the Israeli authorities are reportedly planning to plant a forest instead of allowing the reconstruction of the destroyed villages."
The JNF Canada, which launched a $7 million campaign to refurbish the park in 2007, replaced most traces of Palestinian history with signs devoted to Canadian donors such as the Metropolitan Toronto Police Department, the City of Ottawa and former Ontario premier Bill Davis. Inaugurated by former Canadian Prime Minister John Diefenbaker in 1975, the Diefenbaker Parkway bisects the park.
In the early 1980s JNF Canada helped finance an Israeli government campaign to "Judaize" the Galilee, the largely Arab northern region of Israel. "The government is building Jewish settlements on our land, surrounding us and turning our villages into ghettos," Khateeb Raja, mayor of Deir Hanna, a Palestinian-Israeli town in the Galilee, told The Globe and Mail in 1981. Ishi Mimon told the paper that he planned to move his family to the newly settled "Galil Canada" area because "the Galilee should have a Jewish majority."
JNF Canada's representative in Israel, Akiva Einis, described the political objective of Galil Canada stating that "The government decided to stop the wholesale plunder (by Israeli Arabs) of state lands [conquered in the 1947/48 war]. ... The settlements are all on mountain tops and look out over large areas of land. If an Arab squatter takes a plow onto land that is not his, the settlers lodge a complaint with the police."
JNF Canada spent tens of millions of dollars ($35 million was the total fundraising target) on 14 Jewish settlements in Galil Canada. In the contested valley of Lotem a stone wall and monument was erected, reported the Globe, with "hundreds of small plaques etched with names and home towns of Canadians who have contributed money to the Galilee settlements." Most of the donors to Galil Canada were Jewish, "but a Pentecostal congregation in Vancouver, the Glad Tidings Temple, has given $1-million."
Tawfiz Daggash, Deir Hanna's deputy mayor, denounced Canadian financial support for the settlements. "I want to say to the people of Canada that every dollar they contribute [to JNF] is helping the Israeli government in its attempt to destroy the Arab people here."
The JNF has long been supported by key figures in the Canadian political elite. Former Prime Ministers John Diefenbaker, Lester Pearson and Brian Mulroney have all spoken at JNF events and leading politicians continue to endorse the organization. In addition to this political support, the JNF is a registered charity, which means that up to a third of its budget effectively comes from public coffers. Yet Canada is supposed to outlaw institutional racism.
In 2007, Lebanese-Canadian Ronald Saba filed a detailed complaint concerning the JNF's charitable status with the Canadian Human Rights Commission. The claim was leveled at the "Government of Canada for violating the Canadian Human Rights Act and Canada Revenue Agency Policy Statement CPS-021 by subsidizing racial discrimination through granting and maintaining charitable status for the Jewish National Fund."
Considering the group's political connections, it's not surprising that Canadian officials refused to address Saba's complaint or follow-up ones (all the documents can be found at Montreal Planet Magazine). With the government's failure to address Saba's legitimate complaint, it is now time to launch a political campaign to push the Canada Revenue Agency to revoke the JNF's charitable status.
Victory won't be easy but the educational work involved in such an endeavor will be invaluable. With quasi-state status in Israel, the JNF is at the heart of Israeli apartheid and drawing attention to this institution is a way to discuss the racism intrinsic to Zionism.
Real progressives in Canada have never shied away from difficult, but important tasks such as fighting racism wherever it raises its ugly head....

Most Amazing Airplane In History

FROM AN SR-71 PILOT.......Very interesting read.....
SR-71 Blackbird



In April 1986, following an attack on American soldiers in a Berlin disco, President Reagan ordered the bombing of Muammar Qaddafi's terrorist camps in Libya .


My duty was to fly over Libya , and take photographs recording the damage our F-111's had inflicted.

Qaddafi had established a 'line of death,' a territorial marking across the Gulf of Sidra , swearing to shoot down any intruder, that crossed the boundary.

On the morning of April 15, I rocketed past the line at 2,125 mph.


I was piloting the SR-71 spy plane, the world's
fastest jet, accompanied by a Marine Major (Walt),
the aircraft's reconnaissance systems officer (RSO).
We had crossed into Libya , and were approaching
our final turn over the bleak desert landscape, when
Walt informed me, that he was receiving missile
launch signals.

I quickly increased our speed, calculating the time
it would take for the weapons, most likely SA-2 and SA-4
surface-to-air missiles, capable of Mach 5 - to reach
our altitude.
I estimated, that we could beat the rocket-powered
missiles to the turn, and stayed our course, betting
our lives on the plane's performance.


After several agonizingly long seconds, we made
the turn and blasted toward the Mediterranean .
'You might want to pull it back,' Walt suggested.
It was then that I noticed I still had the throttles
full forward.

The plane was flying a mile every 1.6 seconds, well
above our Mach 3.2 limit.

It was the fastest we would ever fly.

I pulled the throttles to idle, just south of Sicily ,
but we still overran the refueling tanker, awaiting us
over Gibraltar ...


Scores of significant aircraft have been produced,
in the 100 years of flight, following the achievements
of the Wright brothers, which we celebrate in
December.

Aircraft such as the Boeing 707, the F-86 Sabre Jet,
and the P-51 Mustang, are among the important machines,
that have flown our skies.

But the SR-71, also known as the Blackbird, stands alone
as a significant contributor to Cold War victory, and as the
fastest plane ever, and only 93 Air Force pilots, ever steered
the 'sled,' as we called our aircraft.



The SR-71, was the brainchild of Kelly Johnson,
the famed Lockheed designer, who created the
P-38, the F-104 Starfighter, and the U-2.

After the Soviets shot down Gary Powers U-2 in 1960,
Johnson began to develop an aircraft, that would
fly three miles higher, and five times faster, than
the spy plane, and still be capable of photographing
your license plate.

However, flying at 2,000 mph would create intense heat
on the aircraft's skin.
Lockheed engineers used a titanium alloy, to construct
more than 90 percent of the SR-71, creating special tools,
and manufacturing procedures to hand-build each of the
40 planes.
Special heat-resistant fuel, oil, and hydraulic
fluids, that would function at 85,000 feet, and
higher, also had to be developed.


In 1962, the first Blackbird successfully flew, and
in 1966, the same year I graduated from high school,
the Air Force began flying operational SR-71 missions.
I came to the program in 1983, with a sterling record
and a recommendation from my commander,
completing the weeklong interview, and meeting
Walt, my partner for the next four years.

He would ride four feet behind me, working all the
cameras, radios, and electronic jamming equipment.

I joked, that if we were ever captured, he was the spy,
and I was just the driver.

He told me to keep the pointy end forward.

We trained for a year, flying out of Beale AFB in
California , Kadena Airbase in Okinawa , and RAF
Mildenhall in England .

On a typical training mission, we would take off near
Sacramento , refuel over Nevada , accelerate into Montana ,
obtain a high Mach speed over Colorado , turn right over
New Mexico, speed across the Los Angeles Basin, run up
the West Coast, turn right at Seattle , then return to Beale.

Total flight time:- Two Hours and Forty Minutes.

One day, high above Arizona , we were monitoring
the radio traffic, of all the mortal airplanes below us.
First, a Cessna pilot asked the air traffic controllers
to check his ground speed. 'Ninety knots,' ATC replied.
A Bonanza soon made the same request.
'One-twenty on the ground,' was the reply.

To our surprise, a navy F-18 came over the radio, with a
ground speed check.

I knew exactly what he was doing.

Of course, he had a ground speed indicator in his cockpit,
but he wanted to let all the bug-smashers in the valley,
know what real speed was, 'Dusty 52, we show you at 620
on the ground,' ATC responded.

The situation was too ripe.

I heard the click of Walt's mike button in the rear seat.
In his most innocent voice, Walt startled the controller
by asking for a ground speed check from 81,000 feet,
clearly above controlled airspace.
In a cool, professional voice, the controller replied,
'Aspen 20, I show you at 1,982 knots on the ground.'
We did not hear another transmission on that
frequency, all the way to the coast.


The Blackbird always showed us something new,
each aircraft possessing its own unique personality.
In time, we realized we were flying a national treasure.

When we taxied out of our revetments for take-off,
people took notice.

Traffic congregated near the airfield fences, because
everyone wanted to see, and hear the mighty SR-71.

You could not be a part of this program, and not come
to love the airplane.

Slowly, she revealed her secrets to us, as we earned
her trust.

One moonless night, while flying a routine training
mission over the Pacific, I wondered what the sky
would look like from 84,000 feet, if the cockpit lighting
were dark.

While heading home on a straight course, I slowly turned
down all of the lighting, reducing the glare and revealing
the night sky.

Within seconds, I turned the lights back up, fearful that the
jet would know, and somehow punish me.

But my desire to see the sky, overruled my caution,
I dimmed the lighting again.

To my amazement, I saw a bright light outside
my window.

As my eyes adjusted to the view, I realized that the
brilliance was the broad expanse of the Milky Way,
now a gleaming stripe across the sky.

Where dark spaces in the sky, had usually existed,
there were now dense clusters, of sparkling stars.

Shooting Stars, flashed across the canvas every
few seconds.

It was like a fireworks display with no sound.

I knew I had to get my eyes back on the instruments,
and reluctantly, I brought my attention back inside.

To my surprise, with the cockpit lighting still off,
I could see every gauge, lit by starlight.

In the plane's mirrors, I could see the eerie shine of
my gold spacesuit, incandescently illuminated, in a
celestial glow.

I stole one last glance out the window.
Despite our speed, we seemed still before the
heavens, humbled in the radiance of a much greater
power.

For those few moments, I felt a part of something far
more significant, than anything we were doing in the plane.

The sharp sound of Walt's voice on the radio, brought me
back to the tasks at hand, as I prepared for our descent.


San Diego Aerospace Museum
The SR-71 was an expensive aircraft to operate.
The most significant cost was tanker support, and
in 1990, confronted with budget cutbacks, the Air
Force retired the SR-71.

The SR-71 served six presidents, protecting America
for a quarter of a century.

Un-be-known to most of the country, the plane flew
over North Vietnam, Red China, North Korea, the
Middle East
, South Africa, Cuba, Nicaragua, Iran, Libya,
and the Falkland Islands .

On a weekly basis, the SR-71, kept watch over every
Soviet Nuclear Submarine, and Mobile Missile Site,
and all of their troop movements.

It was a key factor in winning the Cold War.

I am proud to say, I flew about 500 hours in this
aircraft.

I knew her well.

She gave way to no plane, proudly dragging her
Sonic Boom through enemy backyards, with great impunity.

She defeated every missile, outran every MiG, and always
brought us home.

In the first 100 years of manned flight, no aircraft was more
remarkable.

The Blackbird had outrun nearly 4,000 missiles,
not once taking a scratch from enemy fire.

On her final flight, the Blackbird, destined for
the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum ,
sped from Los Angeles to Washington
in 64 Minutes, averaging 2,145 mph, and setting four speed records.

Arithmetics of Disdain,

At a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act"

It is noteworthy that the State Department's list of global terrorist incidents for 2002 worldwide failed to list the car bombing attack on Hobeika and his party.... But Listed a small Hand Grenade thrown at a U.S. franchise in the middle of the night when the place was closed, empty and no one was hurt? The White House wanted to ensure the terror attack on Mr. Elie Hobeika, and his party of three young men with families, was censored from the report. The reason was simple: this attack ultimately had Washington's and Israel's fingerprints all over it....Given the actual climate of political cacophonies, deceit, deception and intrigue in Lebanon of today, Lebanon of the LIARS of NEOCONVILLE, it has been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt, that Mr. Elie Hobeika was a visionary Leader and a Hero.Lebanon will probably never know a Leader of this caliber.My dear friend ELIE, you have been reborn on January 24th 2002.Heroes are reborn the day of their Martyrdom .ELIE, you are more alive today, than many living political corpses,walking and talking in Beirut Lebanon every day, until resurrection.At a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act"- G. Orwell A U.S. intelligence source revealed to me, that in the world of intelligence "carve out" subcontracts such confusion is often the case with "plausible deniability" being a foremost concern in ALL covert operations, especially in Elie Hobeika's case on January 24th 2002, & Hariri's Feb. 14th 2005... Notwithstanding Jacques CHIRAC's gesticulations and false sorrow for the loss of his "friend" Rafic HARIRI, he has been regularly organizing official meetings in Paris for Asef Shawkat with his services to secure SYRIA for and with Assef Shawkat,....


The propensity of governments to create secrets out of the obvious is one of the more tedious aspects of international relations. But this secret is not obvious, and it is not trivial. Though it is true, and I hold the KEY.



Fabrications, LIES , False Flag operations, CIA and MOSSAD.It has been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt,that ALL stories which came out immediately after the Assassination of Mr.Elie Hobeika, Fares Sweidan,Dimitri Ajram, and Waleed El-Zein, were completely &utterly FALSE. It was a pure fabrication by the KILLERS;AND the CIA'S Foreign Denial and Deception Committee (FDDC),to cover their tracks. Standard operating procedure...101I mean by that, the stories relating to Elie trying to find IMAD Moughnieh, the alleged attempted contacts with CIA, MOSSAD, etc. , the missing Iranian diplomats, the 9 most wanted by CIA, whose names have been circulated then,on purpose by CIA, to 7 ministers in the Lebanese Government, etc. [names which CIA has completely forgotten now,one of them has proven since to be a CIA asset himself...] ALL these were a tortuous web of lies to cover the tracks of the Murderers of CIA, MOSSAD, and their Syro-Lebanese tools.Special ongoing Investigation.Oct. , 2007- On September 15, 2001, just four days after the 9-11 attacks,CIA Director George Tenet provided President [sic] Bush with a Top Secret"Worldwide Attack Matrix"-a virtual license to kill targets deemed to be a threat to the United States in some 80 countries around the world. The Tenet plan, which was subsequently approved by Bush, essentially reversed the executive orders of four previous U.S. administrations that expressly prohibited political assassinations. Mr. Elie Hobeika will be the first target of the US administration, to pave the way for its Iraq Invasion .It planned to directly control the "Energy Basin" and ALL the OIL Transportation routes,from Pipelines to the Maritime avenues and choke points in the Gulf areas, and from central Asia to Mauritania and beyond.But most of all, Mr. Elie Hobeika will be made to pay dearly with his life,for daring to change his politics and views, after experiencing first hand,THE BRUTALITY OF THE ISRAELIS AND THE AMERICANS ,and their CULTURE OF VIOLENCE , Intrigue, murder & very bad Politics.The BUSH+CHENEY Energy MATRIX, coming to a place near you SOON.The awakening is near. It will be like a hurricane passing with untold fury.Mark my Words: .....

THE assassination of yet another Lebanese MP — the seventh anti-Syrian figure to be murdered since the slaying of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri in February 2005 — has brought Lebanon to the brink of a catastrophe. It threatens to be even more devastating than the 1975-90 civil war. The country’s survival as an independent unified state is now at stake. The divide between anti-Syrian and pro-Syrian blocs is now unbridgeable.

As to fears of fresh civil war, it is already a reality. With ministers and pro-government MPs being assassinated, the government even more besieged than the one in Iraq, surviving MPs in hiding, who can talk of political normality? Lebanon is at war with itself. How long before that translates into general armed conflict is anyone’s guess. It would be naive to imagine that Ghanem’s killing will be the last. The anti-Syrian majority in Parliament is now razor-thin. Those behind this and the other killings are obviously determined to bring down the government of Prime Minister Fouad Siniora by the physical elimination of its parliamentary majority.

There can be no doubt that more assassinations are planned and will be attempted. If that happens and the Lebanese government falls as a result and is replaced by a pro-Syrian government, it will trigger a wave of retaliatory violence — against Hezbollah, against the Shiite community and against pro-Syrian figures. Open warfare waits in the wings.

Syrian protestations that it had nothing to do with Antoine Ghanem’s murder and the others may be true. It is quite possible that the killings are wholly internal, the work of pro-Syrian elements inside Lebanon who want power back. There are certainly some who do not want a new president elected to replace Emile Lahoud. It is even possible that Israelis were behind the killings, intent on destabilization and making Syria appear the villain — possible but unlikely; they have much to lose if a Hezbollah-dominated, pro-Syrian government were installed in Beirut.

The problem is that very few believe Syria’s innocence. They ask the question “who benefits?” and, in the case of each assassination, come up with the same answer: Damascus and its clients in Lebanon. That belief robs Syria of having an acceptable role in Lebanon for a long time to come. The majority of Lebanese want their sovereignty to be absolute; with no interference from anyone — be they Syrian, Israeli, Iranian, American or whatever. That dream, however, is being car-bombed to oblivion....

Forget what you've heard about objectivity. Not even cameras are objective. To nearly everything you analyze (and report on) you bring notions based on - but not limited to - your class, gender, skin color, ethnicity, native language, upbringing, education, religion, culture, playground experiences, political orientation, the influences of people you trust and things about the way our brains work that nobody even knows yet. Like sponges, we absorb stereotypes and clichés about other people's attitudes and behavior which skews our perceptions in ways we don't even realize. So don't fool yourself into believing in objectivity. The best you can achieve is fairness, and that's a tough path to stick to as well.

And then we'd have a talk about the textbook description of objectivity, which is that "every story has two sides," a pernicious dualistic myth that profoundly undermines what is supposed to be a search for truth....



The even greater danger with these dark clouds forming over Lebanon is for the region. With Syria’s links to Iran, Iran’s links to Hezbollah, rising tension over Iran’s alleged nuclear ambitions, there is a chain explosion waiting to happen. An Israeli attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities, an American attack on Iran, a Syrian attack on Israel, more Lebanese assassinations: One could trigger another. The temperature is fast rising on the Middle East’s northern rim — and it is near flash point.

Petition USA

Dear Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee,
http://judiciary.senate.gov/ , thanks for your
great work defending the USA Constitution, with
"EQUAL JUSTICE UNDER LAW" ,Separation
between Churches and State and Free Speech,
and my questions are:1) since most likely the Senate

will approve Michael Mukasey as the new A.G.of

the United States, and since as you know,he is an

orthodox Israeli-American and with dual citizenship,
American and Israeli,

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_B._Mukasey
http://phillyfreedom.blogspot.com/ , NYT Sept.
18.07 "Washington outsider with many sides"
http://voxpopnet.net/
for info on Mukasey as Judge of the WTC-
Insurance 9/11 case , will he respect other
religions exactly thesame as his?2) since he is an

ordained rabbi within his orthodox community,will his partners get treatment better or different in any way
from the one you or I or anybody else would get from

him in the United States of America?

3) what happens to all the Security Contracts
and Military deals he and his son Marc are
doing with the Companies and Interests of
Giuliani Partners and other associates ?

4) what happens with all the deals they
worked on in his son's law firm,
Bracewell&Giuliani?since Bracewell&Giuliani has

offices in the South Asia, like in Kazakhstan,a big

oil supplier ruled by an extreme undemocratic leader,
Nazarbayev, will the Mukasey's and Giuliani's
get special deals? with no supervision? political
donations? will the actual law firm of Mukasey
get special deals too? will anybody ask ? or will
they just say yes :blindly?

5) Michael Mukasey

and his son Marc are strong AIPAC supporters ,

but will anyone in the Senate ask anything about their relationship to these political-military-religious-financial
and foreign groups? we know that no one
will,but is that right? isn't special treatment?
the A.G.?

6) Chairman,this powerful military-religious-
financial group , of which Michael Mukasey is
a leader, will have unprecedented influence in
the Justice Dpt. ,White House and Congress,
not to mention over the average taxpayer,
and since many members of the orthodox
community to which he belongs are diamond,
gold,jewelry,insurance ,real estate and tobacco
dealers and wholesalers while claiming Tax
Exemption due to religious condition,will his
appointment stop all the Investigations of the
IRS and Justice Dpt.as well as Commerce,etc.?
and back taxes?
do average Americans have a guarantee of
equal treatment?
when we start getting prosecuted for asking
questions,what recourse do we have ? any ?
and since orthodox Mukasey will most likely
install many members of his organized religious
group into office,will we be forced to request
help from the same community like his with
the special privilege?7) Judge Mukasey was in

charge of the 9/11/01 Trial case between the

leaseholders of the WTC,SIlverstein-Goldman-

Pacific-etc., and the 23 Insurance Companies these

new leaseholders called just days before 9/11 to
open dozens of policies over everything in
the Towers, services,leases,businesses,contracts,
profits,hardware,you name it,their premiums
were millions of dollars a week, didn't make
any business sense,unless they knew what was
going to happen a few days later ,and
everybody in N.Y. and around the world
was waiting for answers from the Trial ,
and then Judge Mukasey put a lid on the
Trial and no news came out, NOTHING !!!!
and everybody asked why ?, if it is a patriotic
case,why no news at all ?why the secrecy ?
why Judge Mukesay didn't want anybody in
America to know everything about Silverstein
and his dozens of policies? , then we also found
out that then N.Y.State A.G. Eliot Spitzer
wrote a Friend of the Court brief supporting
Silverstein,the AG siding with one of the
parties!, and the Judge and Spitzer started to
push the Insurance Companies to settle for 2
events,a total of 7 billion dollars to Silverstein
and his partners, many of the Insurance
Companies refused because they knew
something was not right and eventually they
settled on 4.6 billion dollars for Silverstein ,
but we still never got any details in any
newspaper ,radio or TV,NOTHING ! I WOULD
LIKE TO ASK JUDGE MUKASEY WHY ? ,
but we do know that no one will ask him
anything in D.C., he and his Orthodox
Congregation partners rule,after all they all
go to Israel together and share Religious
Ceremonies with Kissinger, Chertoff,
Bloomberg ,Silverstein,etc., and yet we hear
S. Schumer and other neocons saying to the
media that they want to learn more from
the man !8) Chairman,this new A.G. will have
unprecedented influence over President Bush
and VP Cheney,since he is the only one that
can prosecute the 2,is it wise to have a
member of a foreign religious-political group
having so much power over the President and
the Vice-President of the United States of
America ? safe ? smart? patriotic?We know that MR..Mukasey was selected by
Joshua Bolten and approved by Senator
Schumer and others,so since "they" run
Washington,it's a done deal ,hearing Senator
Schumer telling the Media how wonderful
Mukasey is and that his nomination cuts
down on pressure on the White House, do
they extorted a deal from the President:
Our orthodox candidate and we stop asking
for White House U.S. Attorney papers and
information?is that why Bush looks so depressed?

is that how Schumer,Bolton, Emanuel,Specter,
Lieberman and Bloomberg are going to run
this country?
because clearly with Mukasey as A.G.,they
run this country lock,stock and barrel,it's
that how our Constitutional Rights end ?
Extortion of the President of the United
States?,
hearing Schumer and Specter, it's clear that it
was all about getting the Christians out of the
Justice Dpt. and installing the neocon orthodox
in, is that how they do it ?A partner of Mukasey

as adviser to Giuliani , the neocon Pedhoretz,

has repeatedly pushed with Pr.Bush to bomb Iran,

to attack, and since Sen. Lieberman and Sen. Kyl

are pushing to brand Iran's Military a terrorist

Organization, is this the beginning of a concerted

effort to push for war? it's important to remember
all this , because in 2002 and 2003 all these
neocons with Sen.Schumer,S.Coleman,
Sen.Boxer,R.Emanuel,Kristol,Safire, Wolfowitz,
Perle,Feith,Kagan,Abrams,Fleischer,Edelman,
Whitman, Kaplan,Kellner,Gutman,Berman,
Sulzberger,Murdoch,Karmazin, ex-sec.Cohen,
Gorelick,Chertoff,Wainstein,Kissinger,etc.,
were pushing for war every day on the media
and yet now they are attacking anyone that
mentions it, they are warning elected officials
like R.Moran that to mention these facts is
anti-this and anti-that and "watch it ", they
are bullying any one that mentions what happen
before the USA went to Iraq,and worst: they
insist now on their media that only Bush-
Cheney-Rice-Rumsfeld are responsible , that
no one else pushed for this war:

THEY ARE RE-WRITING HISTORY!!! and
it looks like its not the first time, it sounds
like they always pull the same trick: they push
for war,financed with their Hedge Funds and
then with the media they erase any links to
themselves, this is criminal; to push for war
and then to hide and blamethe Christians
only,that's evil and SHOWS LOTS OF
WEAKNESS ON THE PART OF THE USA,
THIS IS A DISASTER FOR THIS GREAT
COUNTRY! to confirm an organized
religious-political-military from a foreign sect
and laws to Attorney General is
un-Constitutional,illegal, un-American and
goes against the core of the USA values,
thousands died to defend the USA
Constitution from foreign religions, how can
the Senate now approve a religious leader ?
will they even ask this question? will they
commit High Treason ?when you look at these

incompetent and criminal decisions against the

Rule of Law and the Declaration of Independence,
how can Taxpayers petition the Government
for any rights?Thanks for your great work defending
America from foreign and domestic enemies,
in my humble opinion, this situation
looks to me like occupation and foreign control,
and to you ?America knows that George Washington,

Lincoln and all the Founding Fathers would be proud of
your defense of the USA Constitution against
High Treason and High Crimes,

thanks.

US Citizens

NO COMMENT ....... "For Now..."


Saakashvili Ordered me to Get Rid of Patarkatsishvili’ – Okruashvili


Ex-Defense Minister Irakli Okruashvili has made yet another startling allegation against his former ally, President Saakashvili. The president, he said, had personally ordered him to liquidate Badri Patarkatsishvili, a business tycoon.
Speaking live on Imedi TV’s talk show On the Air late on September 25, Okruashvili said: “Saakashvili told me that we should get rid of him [Patarkatsishvili], in the same way as happened to Rafik Hariri, the former Lebanese prime minister, who was killed in a car bomb attack.”
“In July 2005,” Okruashvili said, “Saakashvili asked me: what did I think about getting rid of one person… - Badri Patarkatsishvili? And then he [Saakashvili] outlined a very detailed plan on how to get rid of him.”
Okruashvili continued: “It was absolutely clear to me that it was a trap for me as well, because they would have gotten rid of me as well after getting rid of Patarkatsishvili.”
He said in response he told Saakashvili that he needed time to think about it.
“Meanwhile, I met with one person who at that time was working with the Americans and told him about the president’s proposal,” Okruashvili said. “I did it in the hope that the information would have been passed on to the Americans… It was Zaza Gogava [now Chief-of-Staff of the Georgian armed forces] However it did not work. Because after a month Saakashvili again repeated his demand about getting rid of Patarkatsishvili.”
“Then I met with another person in Turkey, whose identity I can not reveal. He also has close links with the Americans. He's not a Georgian citizen. I told him about Saakashvili’s plan. This information, it seemed, was delivered to the Americans, because since then Saakashvili never talked with me about getting rid of Patarkatsishvili.”President Saakashvili, who is currently in New York for the UN General Assembly Session, has yet to comment on his former ally’s allegations.

more:






Irakli Okruashvili, ex-defense minister and once President Saakashvili’s closest ally, has accused the president of engaing in “anti-state steps” and “ordering murders.”
In his first public statement since he quit the government last November, Okruashvili also finally announced the launch of his political party – Movement for United Georgia. He refused to take question after his ten-minute speech, but said he planned to give further details and “answer all questions” during a TV appearance planned for later on Tuesday.
“I will definitely speak more on these crimes, which were masterminded by the authorities,” he said. Okruashvili added: “I was ordered by Saakashvili several times to liquidate certain influential and important people, which I refused to do.” He gave no further details.
There has been considerable speculation that “a war of compromising materials” would precede Okruashvili’s political comeback and the unveiling of his new opposition party.
Okruashvili said at the news conference in his party's headquarters in downtown Tbilisi that “fascist trends” and “anti-state steps undertaken by the authorities” had convinced him and his co-thinkers to set up the new movement. He also suggested that it hadn't been easy to launch the party.
People, he said, “are terrorized” because of “repression.” “Those with dissenting opinions are deemed ‘enemies of the state’ and the government is refusing to hold a dialogue with them,” he said.
This, he said, had made it difficult to convince people to engage in public life.
Okruashvili said that the anti-corruption campaign was “unreal.” The prisons, he said, were full of petty criminals, while corruption continued to thrive among “top level officials, Saakashvili’s inner circle and his family.”
“Three years ago when I was Interior Minister,” Okruashvili said, “I arrested Temur Alasania, the president’s uncle, for extortion of USD 200,000. I, however, had to release him on the president’s insistence.”
He also accused the authorities, and personally Saakashvili, of, as he put it, “a deliberate anti-Orthodox Church campaign” and “of fighting against Georgian traditions and values.”
“Saakashvili has an inner hatred of the Georgian Orthodox Church,” Okruashvili said. “The Georgian church is the most respected institution in Georgia. [Because of this] he [Saakashvili] perceives the Church as his main competitor. While in his inner circle, I often heard him talking about splitting the Church and discrediting the clergy.”
He also said that there was “a clear attempt” by the Saakashvili administration “to re-write Georgia’s history, as if nothing Georgian existed before the Rose Revolution, and everything new is being created by Saakashvili.”
Okruashvili also made an obvious attempt to appeal to other walks of life by saying that the older generation, those over 50, had been “neglected and humiliated.”
Internally displaced persons from Abkhazia and South Ossetia, he said, “were not regarded as human beings during ex-President Shevardnadze’s regime and this trend has continued in the Saakashvili regime as well.”
He also criticized the authorities’ policies towards the secessionist regions.
“We were one step away from reclaiming one of our lost territories,” Okruashvili said, apparently referring to South Ossetia.
Several months before his resignation from the cabinet, Okruashvili said that he had planned to celebrate the 2007 New Year in Tskhinvali, the capital of breakaway South Ossetia. Commentators said that Saakashvili’s decision to move Okruashvili last November from the Defense Ministry to the Ministry of Economy was largely because of Okruashvili’s perceived hawkish stance on South Ossetia.
In his speech on September 25, Okruashvili said that “only Saakashvili’s weakness, inability and fear” had foiled plans to reclaim the secessionist region. He also said Saakashvili was too weak to take an unspecified “historic decision.”
He also criticized Tbilisi’s decision to create the provisional South Ossetia administration, led by Dimitri Sanakoev. Okruashvili said Sanakoev had no respect and authority among the population of the region. He also said that installing Sanakoev was “an imaginary attempt” to unite the country.
Okruashvili explained his decision to “quietly” quit the government without voicing his discontent was because of, as he put it, his sense of “civil responsibility.”
“Army officers, who are still my friends, asked me to do it quietly,” he said and added that by doing so he had denied the country’s enemies an opportunity to speculate on a split within the government.
Okruashvili admitted that he shared “the responsibility for some mistakes because I was also once part of this government.”
“I, however, have done nothing but good for my country when in government,” he added. “So any attempt to discredit me will fail.”
Towards the end of his speech, he implied that he might have presidential ambitions.
“Georgia will be united only if it has a president who doesn't humiliate and insult its own people,” Okruashvili said.
Throughout his speech, Okruashvili's fellow party members stood beside him. They include: lawmakers Tea Tlashadze, Ketevan Makharashvili, Koka Guntsadze, Gia Tortladze and Gia Tsagareishvili; former Deputy Defense Minister Levan Nikolaishvili and a lawyer, Eka Beselia.
Two former journalists from Rustavi 2 TV station, Nana Lezhava and Natia Lazashvili, were also there. Both quit the TV station shortly after Rustavi 2 changed hands last November following Okruashvili’s resignation.
