Cheney paid tribute to American forces and intelligence services for their "tireless work" in tracking down Bin Laden since the September 11, 2001 attacks but also offered rare praise to political opponent Obama.

Immediately afterward a White House official threatened that President Assad himself could be sanctioned next. On February 25 Obama issued a comparable - in fact an almost identical - order against Libya, only ten days after anti-government protests began in the nation and three weeks before U.S. cruise missiles and bombs landed on its soil. Webmaster's Commentary: Anyone who doesn't believe the US is going into Syria has got to be completely out of touch with realty; a war against Syria will mean a war with Iran, because Syria and Iran have a mutual defense pact. And it's Iran, on Israel's marching orders, with which the US government wants a fight. However, those in the bowels of power in DC had better consider one very important factor. All these "pre-emptive/humanitarian wars" have got China and Russia wondering at what point they are going to have to join the fray, and in this case, may be joining against the US on the side of Iran. Both countries are nuclear armed, and draft conscripts into their armies.

On Saturday night Channel 2 television released an audio recording of a Thursday meeting of the Likud's young adult forum, during which Welfare and Communications Minister Moshe Kahlon said that he supported such a move.

Webmaster's Commentary: I keep telling you that this government will never admit the truth about 9-11, no matter how many investigations or trials there are. It is a waste of time, and in the long run, really does not matter at all. We The People know we were lied to about 9-11. I for one do not need the government's stamp of approval on my analysis. I do not need them to confirm I am correct, nor do I cede to the government a veto power over my logical conclusions. We know we were lied to, and the fine details no longer matter. The choice facing us all now is, what do we do about a government that lies to us about so many things? The Declaration of Independence declares a government just only when it operates with the consent of the governed. I do not consent to be lied to. Nobody I know consents to be lied to by the government. It therefore follows that this is an unjust government. The Constitution of the United States, the original "Contract with America" does not authorize the government to lie to the people, and the 10th Amendment prohibits the government from assuming that right to itself. Therefore when the government lies it acts unconstitutionally and illegally and ceases to be the legal government of this land. The American people neither legally nor morally are obligated to obey an illegal and unconstitutional government, to pay its bills, or to sacrifice their children in wars based on those lies by the government. It is time to decide what to do about such government, and to cease playing for time by pretending that one can still obtain the truth and freedom by working within the system. » * 1 comment * * Permalink^ May 01 09:46 Iran Commander Warns Saudi Arabia Of Unrest Tags: * SAUDI ARABIA One of Iran's top military commanders warned Saudi Arabia on Sunday that its decision to send forces to Bahrain to quell protests by Shiite Muslims would spark unrest at home, a semiofficial Iranian news agency reported. Firouzabadi, who is known for his anti-Saudi rhetoric, also lashed out at the United States, claiming Washington was behind Riyadh's move into Bahrain so that it could preserve an American naval base there. "Washington ordered Saudi Arabia as its mercenary to thwart the Bahrainis' popular revolution so that the U.S. can maintain its base," Firouzabadi was reported as saying.

Although the US has not recalled its ambassador, US sanctions have been placed on a number of heads of government here. If the situation escalates, and there is a US military intervention here, Iran and Syria have a mutual defense pact. This will pull Iran in to the conflict in Syria's side, which will mean that Iran and the US will be at war. » * Permalink^ May 01 09:44 Gaddafi's son's killing puts Nato in line of fire By: J.T.
