The kidnapping of Haiti

John Pilger
January 28, 2010

The theft of Haiti has been swift and crude. On 22 January, the United States secured “formal approval” from the United Nations to take over all air and sea ports in Haiti, and to “secure” roads. No Haitian signed the agreement, which has no basis in law. Power rules in an American naval blockade and the arrival of 13,000 marines, special forces, spooks and mercenaries, none with humanitarian relief training.

The airport in the capital, Port-au-Prince, is now an American military base and relief flights have been re-routed to the Dominican Republic. All flights stopped for three hours for the arrival of Hillary Clinton. Critically injured Haitians waited unaided as 800 American residents in Haiti were fed, watered and evacuated. Six days passed before the US Air Force dropped bottled water to people suffering thirst and dehydration.

The first TV reports played a critical role, giving the impression of widespread criminal mayhem. Matt Frei, the BBC reporter dispatched from Washington, seemed on the point of hyperventilation as he brayed about the “violence” and need for “security”. In spite of the demonstrable dignity of the earthquake victims, and evidence of citizens’ groups toiling unaided to rescue people, and even an American general’s assessment that the violence in Haiti was considerably less than before the earthquake, Frei claimed that “looting is the only industry” and “the dignity of Haiti’s past is long forgotten.” Thus, a history of unerring US violence and exploitation in Haiti was consigned to the victims. “There’s no doubt,” reported Frei in the aftermath of America’s bloody invasion of Iraq in 2003, “that the desire to bring good, to bring American values to the rest of the world, and especially now to the Middle East… is now increasingly tied up with military power.”

Authorities Quietly Reverse Underwear Bomber Official Story

January 28, 2010

Authorities have quietly reversed the official story behind the Christmas Day underwear bomber attack and acknowledged that an accomplice was involved, despite weeks of denial and derision of eyewitness Kurt Haskell’s description of a sharp-dressed man who helped Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab board Flight 253 in Amsterdam.

Buried in the last two paragraphs of a story about alleged female suicide bombers coming from Yemen, an ABC News report contains the following bombshell.

“Federal agents also tell ABCNews.com they are attempting to identify a man who passengers said helped Abdulmutallab change planes for Detroit when he landed in Amsterdam from Lagos, Nigeria.”

“Authorities had initially discounted the passenger accounts, but the agents say there is a growing belief the man have played a role to make sure Abdulmutallab “did not get cold feet.”

Detroit lawyer Kurt Haskell maintained from the beginning that he saw a well-dressed Indian man aid the accused bomber to board the plane despite the fact that he had no passport and was on a terror watch list.

“While Mutallab was poorly dressed, his friend was dressed in an expensive suit, Haskell said. He says the suited man asked ticket agents whether Mutallab could board without a passport. “The guy said, ‘He’s from Sudan and we do this all the time,’” reported the Michigan Live news website.

FBI agents interviewed Haskell and he told them about the sharp-dressed man but officials refused to admit that a wider conspiracy was at hand, stoically maintaining the official story that Abdulmutallab had acted alone. Authorities claimed that videotapes did not show a second man accompanying Abdulmutallab and yet they refused to release any footage of the alleged bomber.

“Why is this not total breaking news?” asks Haskell’s wife on their family blog. “I think we now know WHY the video is not being released. Because IT SHOWS WHAT KURT SAID!!!!!! I mean, where is his apology? Where? They come out in the media, basically calling Kurt a liar, then they take it back, but it is in the bottom of another nonrelated article. Ridiculous. And still, to date, no authorities contacting KURT to ask him to look at the freaking video and help identify the guy. It’s so insane to me. We have an eyewitness to this, and they just don’t care.”

There seems little doubt that Abdulmutallab had at least one accomplice if not more. Authorities have remained silent on other eyewitness reports which described a man intently filming the alleged terrorist throughout the whole flight, a connection that strongly suggests the attempted bomber was involved in some kind of drill and that his strings were being pulled by people in more senior positions.

In addition, Flight 253 passengers reported seeing a third man connected to the incident being handcuffed by FBI agents after sniffer dogs found something suspect in his luggage. After initially denying any knowledge of this individual, authorities were forced to acknowledge his existence but claimed he had nothing to do with the attempted attack, completely contradicting multiple eyewitness accounts that state passengers were moved from a waiting area after it was made clear to them that a bomb had been found.

China calls for end to "prejudiced" EU arms embargo

BEIJING, Jan. 28 (Xinhua) -- China Thursday said the European Union's arms embargo represented political prejudice and called for its early lifting.

"The EU's arms embargo, in nature, is political prejudice against China, which runs counter to world tides and China-EU all-round strategic partnership," Foreign Ministry spokesman Ma Zhaoxu told a regular press briefing.

Ma's comments came after Spanish Foreign Minister Miguel Angel Moratinos said Tuesday that his country, which currently holds the EU's rotating presidency, was weighing the pros and cons of the embargo.

France had been one of the main supporters of lifting the embargo and "Spain is following that line," Moratinos said Tuesday.

The EU imposed arms embargo on China in 1989. In 2005, European discussions on lifting the embargo were shelved due to pressures from some EU members and other countries.

"China's request to scrap the embargo is aimed at removing political prejudices against the country and ensuring its equal rights," Ma said.

"We hope the EU will make an early political decision, lift the arms embargo unconditionally and thoroughly so as to remove the obstacle to the sound growth of the China-EU relationship," Ma said.

Taiwan-China ECFA unequal from start

Delegations from Taiwan and the People's Republic of China launched negotiations in Beijing earlier this week toward a controversial "economic cooperation agreement" that is being vigorously promoted by President Ma Ying-jeou's rightist Chinese Nationalist Party (Kuomintang) government as a panacea for our economic future. Unfortunately, the talks, which are taking place under the framework of the non-official platform between Taipei's Strait Exchange Foundation and Beijing's Association for Relations Across the Taiwan Strait, promptly began with a major degradation of Taiwan's international status.In the face of deep concern over whether the proposed "economic cooperation framework agreement" would sacrifice Taiwan's sovereignty, jobs and autonomy, President Ma, Mainland Affairs Council Chairwoman Lai Shin-yuan and other senior government officials and KMT sycophant scholars have piously proclaimed that the KMT government would not "sell out" Taiwan's sovereignty or further liberalize agricultural imports and that the past would be negotiated and signed on a basis of parity and "under the framework of the World Trade Organization."The first day of talks in Beijing Monday quickly dispelled such illusions.

The two delegations, led respectively by SEF Vice Chairman Kao Koong-lien and ARATS Vice President Zheng Lizhong, agreed on the formal name of "Cross-Strait Economic Cooperation Agreement and thus set aside the formal status and titles that the two parties have in the WTO system, namely the "Separate Customs Territory of Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu" and "the People's Republic of China."

The Ma government's agreement to abandon negotiating the ECFA directly under the WTO f framework implicitly sets aside Taiwan's formal status under the WTO as an "customs entity" and plays into the PRC's own definition of "the Taiwan question" as a domestic matter.In this way, the Ma government has tossed away the most precious asset granted by our WTO membership, namely a legally precise status distinct from and equal to the PRC that is guaranteed by multilateral treaty.

While the SEF and ARATS formally agreed to send the completed agreement to the WTO Secretariat for registration, news reports that Taiwan officials promised to send their own version with Taiwan identified as the "Separate Customs Territory of Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu" implied that Beijing would send its own version.

Given Beijing's lack of scruples about throwing its economic and diplomatic weight around, it will be the PRC favored phraseology of "Taiwan, China" will be heard in most of the international community.Taiwan's status in the world trade body will be effectively degraded from being equal to the PRC (or even superior as a "developed" economy) into a substantive position parallel (and perhaps even lower) with Hong Kong.

Away with internationalism

Like Taiwan's official constitutional name of the "Republic of China," Taiwan's WTO name will become something licensed for use only in Taiwan and which is invisible outside our borders and outside the attention of many citizens who remain blissfully unaware of the denigration of Taiwan's international status.The recitation of the MAC of the validity of the "Statute on Cross-strait Relations between the People of the Taiwan Area and the People of the Mainland Area" as justifying the term "cross-strait" is also an exercise in ostrich imitation.The key issue is not how this outdated statute semantically deals with the reality of the fact that Taiwan and the PRC are two states but dropping our formal WTO status in the negotiation of an economic treaty compromises international perceptions of Taiwan's autonomy and tosses away a hard-won, if inadequate, multilateral guarantee of our status as a distinct "entity" or "state" in the world community.
Moreover, reference to the cross-strait statute also raises the spectre that the Ma government could simply cite its Article 25 and declare that only the items in the ECA that directly impinged on Taiwan's legal code would be submitted to the Legislative Yuan for approval with the rest of the pact to take effect automatically within 60 days unless vetoed by the legislature.

In the light of Ma's praise for the "majority legislative violence" used to rammed unconstitutional revisions to the Local Government Act through the Legislative Yuan January 18 without discussion, it seems unlikely that our elected lawmakers will have much of a chance to engage in any serious debate or review anyway.

The opposition Democratic Progressive Party and other Taiwan-centric political and social forces should put both the KMT and CCP governments on notice that such a "ratification" process of an agreement "negotiated" in a black box without a "bottom - up" consensus in Taiwan and orchestrated by a Ma administration which has the confidence of only 20 percent of the Taiwan electorate will not be considered to have past the tests of democratic transparency, accountability and legitimacy.The bottom line is quite simply that any complete "economic cooperation agreement" between Taiwan and the PRC must be submitted to the 23 million people of Taiwan for ratification before it can be considered valid. The fundamental question is whether the People's Republic China and Taiwan, whose constitutional name is the ROC, are two distinct and non-overlapping states and whether the 23 million people of Taiwan possess the democratic right to determine for themselves the status of Taiwan and the nature of Taiwan's relationship with the PRC.

80% of children in foster homes for more than 6 months or longer have PTSD (post traumatic stress syndrome)and are also more likely to be sexually or physically assaulted and placed on psychotropic drugs


Investigative reporter DONNA TRAMMELL and MARK WHITE EAGLE provide yet another eye-opener into the powerful abuse of government funded agencies from the F.D.A., F.T.C., through Child Protective Services. As they share the unbelievable sage of Michael Travalino, a.k.a. Mark White Eagle, Native American Shoshone medicine man and shaman, and his family which is a horrifying example of agencies run amok - it started with his dispersing of herbal formulas from his herbal shop and escalated into unbelievable tragedy for he and his family:

"On June 18, 2006, the Travalino family's nightmare began. A woman, who had been diagnosed by her doctor with advanced cancer and had submitted to chemotherapy and other drugs to no avail, was at the Travalino home for a consultation and to receive herbal treatment. Her daughter who lived in another state and didn't approve of her mother's decision to try herbs to treat her cancer, contacted the Chaves County Sheriff's Department to go to the Travalino home to check on her mother. When the sheriff's deputies arrived at the home, the woman answered the door, stepped outside the house and told the deputies that she was fine, and there of her own volition. The story should have ended there."

WHO wants the people of Haiti to get a whole bunch of vaccines ASAP

(What better way to get rid of the H1N1 vaccine that no none wanted) If the WHO has their way, the people of Haiti will soon be vaccinated for a whole array of diseases. According to a new report by the World Health Organization, the plan is to vaccinate all them for tetanus, measles, diphtheria, polio and pertussis as quickly as possible. In addition, the report also mentions the H1N1 swine flu as a potential threat in Haiti, so presumably the WHO plans to get most of the Haitian population to take that vaccine as well.

If you read any economic, financial, or political analysis for 2010 that doesn’t mention the food shortage looming next year, throw it in the trash, as it is worthless. There is overwhelming, undeniable evidence that the world will run out of food next year. When this happens, the resulting triple digit food inflation will lead panicking central banks around the world to dump their foreign reserves to appreciate their currencies and lower the cost of food imports, causing the collapse of the dollar, the treasury market, derivative markets, and the global financial system. The US will experience economic disintegration.

The United Nations is just a debating society and a 'front' for banks

"Today, America would be outraged if U.N. troops entered Los Angeles to restore order. Tomorrow they will be grateful! This is especially true if they were told that there were an outside threat from beyond, whether real or promulgated, that threatened our very existence. It is then that all peoples of the world will plead to deliver them from this evil. The one thing every man fears is the unknown. When presented with this scenario, individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of their well-being granted to them by the World Government."
Dr. Henry Kissinger, Bilderberger Conference, Evians, France, 1991
