Ahmadinejad then told delegates that Iran has a “global vision and welcomes any effort intended to provide and promote peace, stability and tranquility” in the world.

“Iran may still be years away from any nuclear armed missiles”,  is Reuters headlines today from Vienna. Iran is the new kid in the block
for the Stream Media. They can report anything they want and the public avid for news will swallow it as if it is their red pill.
The headlines run wild in every News Outlets that there is, but how much information is really truthful and informative.  With the popularization of the blogs, the big News Outlets seen themselves competing with millions of blogs around the world, so they resort to “catchy” headlines and  spicy pictures that can bring the attention of the readers back to their Editorials Headlines.
It is not easy any more for the “News Industry” to monopolize the events. Every citizen in the world equipped with a smart phone and youtube account can make the news any time and it cost absolutely nothing.
The mellow down of the headlines regarding Iran is worth an analysis, when for the past few months the rhetoric has been of an emergency to attack Iran to stop it from making nuclear weapons. Natayahu performance in the UN special session last week with his almost comic presentation of Iran nuclear weapons. Natayahu cartoonist graphics were as believable as Collin Powell Power Point  presentation to the UN before the US decided to attack Iraq in 2003.
Really the major players don’t really care what we believe, they make their meetings at close doors and they decide what war to start today, or what conflict to fuel.
Back on 2003 Iraq was visited by the UN atomic agency Nuclear inspectors and they found nothing.
The Nuclear agency giving reports that the inspections found nothing, while Israel and US repeating in the Major News “Iraq has Nuclear Weapons”

January 24, 2001
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) — U.N. nuclear experts praised Iraq for cooperating with an inspection completed Wednesday, but refused to say whether they had found any evidence Iraq was restarting banned weapons programs.
The visit came as Iraq prepared to sit down with the United Nations to determine whether broader monitoring of its nuclear and other weapons programs could resume, and as the new U.S. administration made clear it will take a hard line on Iraq
Who do we believe? – “Israel’s warning last week that Iran will be on the brink of developing a nuclear weapon by mid-2013 seemed to refer to when it could have a sufficient stock of higher-grade uranium to make a quick dash to produce a bomb’s worth of weapon-grade material.” Reuter

While the Media keep repeating “Iraq kick the inspectors on 1998, to start their nuclear program”. The facts were saying, the Inspectors left in 1998 before UK start bombing Iraqi Targets.
“Almost all of those inspections have been halted since 1998, when the U.N. inspection team pulled out of Iraq ahead of U.S.-British bombings” This was part of an article run on the New York Times under the headlines “Nuclear Inspectors Praise Iraq”, while the article was pulled down by the New York times it can still be found in this link Nuclear News
The wording on every statement was aimed to taint Iraq credibility, and all the Major News paper were being part of this conspiracy to sway the mood against Iraq, to prepare the world for Iraq invasion on the guise of destroying the Piles of Iraqui Nuclear Weapons. Well that did not went to well and they change the Headlines to Bring Democracy to Iraq. “God Bless America” was repeated millions
Remember the famous “Iraq No Fly Zone”, The US and UK divided Iraq as it was a cake with a lame excuse and “armed” with a “UN Resolution” they keep Iraq cripple in his own country, nable to property govern their own provinces. While the UN sanctions pushed by the US and Israel were creating a terrible misery in Iraq the US and UK keep bombing targets in Iraq, preparing the way for an invasion.
And the headlines keep filling the hungry and innocent mind of the readers, that do not know any more who is the savior and who is the aggressor.
Now Iran is the bad boy of the block, yesterday was Syria, last year was Libya, that is how Mainstream Media  function.
Who is next in this line of fire? The Media has picked the suspects and the headlines are rolling every day.

“Bashar al-Assad, a British-trained doctor who inherited Syria’s harsh dictatorship from his father, Hafez al-Assad, had at first wavered between force and hints of reform. But in April 2011, just days after lifting the country’s decades-old state of emergency, he set off the first of what became a series of withering crackdowns, sending tanks into restive cities as security forces opened fire on demonstrators. In retrospect, the attacks appeared calculated to turn peaceful protests violent, to justify an escalation of force.”  New York Times

So let’s read again the above statement, which is an excerpt from the New York Times overview of Syria conflict.
How is that Syrian government forces turning peaceful protests violent is going to benefit Syria? It is true that Bashar Al Assad had announced reforms and the lifting of the state of emergency, aren’t these two events  enough to quite down the protests inside Syria? Why will the government want to incite violence? makes no sense at all, right?, but if you see it printed on the News headlines you only see the overly coat of propaganda directed to your sub conscience and the machinations of the propaganda started to dent inside your mind. Next thing you will be looking for news that read “Violence in Syria”, “Crackdowns in Syria” at this point you have lost objectivity and you become part of the game of propaganda. The Stream Media makes money out of your readership, so it will keep feeding you the same stories to keep you hooked up to their “News/Game”. The last thing they care is for the truth, they are interested on selling, so they print what it sells.

Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has announced reform measures, including the creation of a committee to study the possibility of lifting the country’s emergency law.
Syria’s state-run news agency, SANA, said Thursday the committee will complete its study by April 25.
Lifting the emergency law has been a key demand of protesters carrying out anti-government rallies in recent weeks. Voice of America

So why will they occupy with giving you boring news if what the people is asking is blood, gossip, wars, “interesting stuff”, they go to the extent to create the news for you. Different that giving you the news!
Browsing the internet I found this interesting story from Syria, at first may be uninteresting stuff, but if you think about it, just little bit, you get to the conclusion that Syria is a dynamic country with roughly 26 million inhabitants and the News insist on portraying a Syria in flames. The situation is getting more chaotic by the minute, and the conflict is heading to be a regional conflict with the latest news of confrontations with Turkey, that is just on more ally of the US and active member of NATO with 26 NATO bases in its territory.

So it seems as Syria run business as usual in its cities;  read the next news from Syria bases News Outlet, dated just 2 months ago. You can not possibly find this news in Stream Media, why will they bother, has nothing to do with Blood, Chaos, Conflict or war, as as far as they concern, “This is not News material”

President al-Assad Issues Decree on Establishment of New Mechanical Engineering Faculty and Medicine Faculty

Jul 09, 2012

DAMASCUS, President Bashar al-Assad on Sunday issued the decree No. 241 for 2012 stipulating for the establishment of the 2nd Mechanical Engineering Faculty affiliated to Aleppo University based in the city of Idleb and Medicine Faculty affiliated to al-Baath University based in the city of Hama.

Minister of Higher Education, Dr. Mohammad Yehiya Moalla, said this decree came to stress the continuity of providing free higher education for students in light of the growing number of holders of high school diploma with its various branches.

He added that the establishment of the new faculties will contribute to solving the problem of distance which sometimes hinder students’ enrollment in the university specialization he/she wants to study particularly among female students, in addition to filling the shortage in the Mechanical Engineering and Medicine specializations in the two provinces.

Syria threaten to use Chemical Weapons if foreign force intervention. WOW! this is hug headlines. Imagine everybody running to buy Gas masks.
Why in hell they run this News as headlines, but off course who run this headlines? The New York Times
with their style.
Syrian officials warned Monday that they would deploy chemical weapons against any foreign intervention, a threat that appeared intended to ward off an attack by Western nations while also offering what officials in Washington called the most “direct confirmation” ever that Syria possesses a stockpile of unconventional armaments.
That meticulous thought statement; “direct confirmation” ever that Syria possesses a stockpile of unconventional armaments. With this the News is sending antennas to the world, using the same tactics used when the “US and the collision of the willing” wanted to invade Iraq.

Turkey fires artillery at Syria after 5 civilians killed in Turkish border villagen!

The Vancouver Sun
Are you serious 5 civilian killed and the News want Turkey to declare war against Syria?
It is sickening the way the “NEWS” are giving you the events all wrap up in blood. Please people do not be victim of their News, their propaganda and made up conflicts.
Yes there is chaos in the world, but most of the chaos is structured directly from the offices on NATO, US, UK, UN and Israel.
There is no way back is they turn this in WWIII. This could be the end of the world
Turn the TV off and change your News Online Channel.

Off The Net: End the American Raj

Posted on 05. Feb, 2011 by Raja Mujtaba in Pak-US Relations

General Kayani must not allow any slipup in Islamabad

Cut the US embassy to size

Citizens mobilize in large rallies in Lahore, Islamabad and Karachi

By Raja G Mujtaba
Raymond Davis has really kicked off the anti US demonstrations in Pakistan. The already frustrated people have become more hateful of the Americans. When I say America, I do not mean the American continent or the American people but to be precise it’s the power intoxicated arrogant people in the corridors of power of DC.
The developments in Tunisia and Egypt have provided the inspiration to Muslims all over the world that they can have their say. This is going to be a chain reaction in different Muslim countries of the world; a farewell to US puppets. Pakistan is considered to be a ripe case; Raymond Davis has come as a catalyst. The people of Pakistan have already tasted the fruit of street power through long marches that culminated on 16^th of March, 2009 when the Judiciary was reinstated. Now the people feel that they too can react and bring about the change that’s more congenial, responsive and responsible towards the need of the people and the state of Pakistan.
The unchecked drone attacks have made Pakistan a laughing stock, the national pride has been thrown to shreds. Not only that but the repeated violation of the law of the land by the Americans in particular and some other countries in general made the people feel very weak. The icing came when Raymond Davis (if this is his true identity) tasted blood in broad daylight in one of the busiest and densely populated neighbourhood, Mozang Chongi of Lahore. Today every Pakistani from every walk of life feels humiliated, insulted and exploited by the US and her agents who control the reigns of the government in Islamabad.
Pakistan society at large feel that had it been for the people in power, Davis would have been long set free and flown out. But the immediate peoples’ reaction has blocked any out of the court deal that the Interior Ministry was contemplating. The kiths of Ibadur Rahman, a man who was crushed under the wheels of the follow up vehicle refused to take the body till the police registered the case. Within minutes of the incident Rana Faisal, a senior police officer talking to the media termed it as a dacoity case. One wonders how without even an initial investigation he could term it as dacoity and granted the killer the right to self defence? The Punjab Chief Minister should order an inquiry of Rana Faisal for such irresponsible attitude and behaviour knowing fully well that it could have a very strong backlash on the streets.
People expect General Ashfaq Kayani to play a role in line with the national aspirations and sentiments whereby Davis’s possible linkages with the terrorist groups should be thoroughly investigated.
The court was moved and people felt relieved when the Lahore high court issued the orders for Raymond’s custody and placing him on exit control list, meaning that now he cannot leave the country before the legal process is completed. People are so infuriated that they are demanding that Davis be hanged publically at Qurtaba Chowk in Mozang where he killed these two boys. The kin of all the three killed have refused to accept blood money, they want blood for blood and at the same spot.

Is Gaza being strangled by the Egyptian Revolution?

Posted by Marivel Guzman
On February 1, 2011
Jasmine Revolution

As the world is united to support the Egyptian Revolution and press around the world for the ouster of the Dictator Hosni Mubarak, the police in Egypt have come back to the streets after running out scare for their lives as they did not know if Mubarak plans to step down or cling to the chair. The hours have pass and Mubarak still refuses to let go, with that gesture the police relieved of being caught up en between the will of the people and their jobs.

The situation might be blurry and confused for the foreigners, the spectators of this chain of events that started on December 27, 2010 with a person in the main square of the Tunisian town of Sidi Bouzid, where Mohammed Bouazizi set himself on fire and sparked a revolution, The Jasmine Revolution that ousted another Dictator.

Tunisia has asked Interpol to help arrest ousted president Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali, his wife Leila Trabelsi and other members of the family who fled the country during an uprising, the justice minister said Wednesday.

Lazhar Karoui Chebbi told a news conference that Tunisia wanted to try Ben Ali and his clan for “possessing of (expropriated) property and transferring foreign currency abroad,” Reuters reported.


Mubarak falling in pieces, as the days pass and Egypt unrest grows, no words from Obama or Old Crazy Joe Biden can stop the will of the people from shaking the dictator from their country
The spark the set Egyptians in an unexpected uprising that culminated with the Revolution that wants Hosni Mubarak out of the Chair, have kept The Western, Israel and Gaza Government afraid of any moves that can spark more unrest in the Palestinians Territories. With the Egyptian Revolution getting momentum in the Streets of Egypt and else where in the world, the uncertainly of the outcome have forced the Egyptian Military to seal the border of Rafah the only official open border to Gaza, Palestine, and The Authorities in Gaza afraid of the influx of Egyptian Refugees that try to cross to Gaza in the last days, have forced them to seal also the Tunnels, the lifeline of Gaza for the last 3 years after Israel imposed the Siege.

Sources in Gaza confirmed that the Erez Crossing that connect Israel with Gaza is being completely sealed since yesterday, February 01, 2011, the excuses always come handy for Israel to block the entrance of goods to Gaza.

People are required to put all their luggage on a metal detector, which funnels the baggage to unseen security guards for possible hand checks. Travelers then are buzzed through a glass door and enter the crossing’s most sophisticated security check: an advanced body screener created by a California company.
The Erez crossing is the official crossing point for products and goods that enter Gaza from Internationals Organizations such UNRWA and other financed by European countries. The Erez Open only to Arab residents under the jurisdiction of the Palestinian Authority, Egyptian nationals, and international aid officials
– Scanning equipment built by L-3 Communications Inc.
– Cost more than $35 million to construct
The crossing is largely unused as Israel prohibits the vast majority of Gazans from coming out, and almost no one from Israel goes in. These days, many simply call the high-tech crossing point the “terminal to nowhere”
People are required to put all their luggage on a metal detector, which funnels the baggage to unseen security guards for possible hand checks.

Travelers then are buzzed through a glass door and enter the crossing’s most sophisticated security check: an advanced body screener created by a California company.
The scanner is so sensitive, officials say, that it creates a complete holographic image of the traveler and allows the screener to see even a tissue or penny stuck in a pocket.
Travelers step into the scanner through a plastic portal and raise their hands above their heads. The translucent plastic doors close and a scanner whizzes around them in a complete circle.

The scanner’s manufacturer, L-3 Communications Inc.

With the unrest in the region Israel seal the Erez crossing, making with this the situation in Gaza unbearable. For the last 3 years the booming of the tunnels have relieved the population of Gaza, as most of the food and products were imported by the tunnels operators that control both sides of the border.

Gaza Tunnels the Lifelines of the population of more than 1.5 millions

The Gaza Tunnels have served as a life line for the besieged population of Gaza. The prices have raised dramatically in Gaza since the Revolution sparked in Egypt. “You know that everything in the Gaza Strip, such as food and drink, gas, petrol and everything here comes from Egypt, now anything enter from Egypt and here in Gaza and the high prices of many things lacking in Gaza, when they become available they are very expensive” my source explained. “They will arrest any journalist from Gaza that try to portray anything about Gaza to the world”.

The situation in Gaza is deplorable in all the senses, politically, economically and if the situation does not change for the better the Revolution of Egypt can be easily imported to Gaza, and for that they do not need the tunnels.
The people is tired of waiting from the West to do anything to make Israel to lift the blockade, they are tired to wait from their own government to implement an emergency measures to alleviate their lack of food, the absent of jobs and the insecurity in the Strip.

Something has to be done in the next few days. Gazans are impatient also and they might want to unite their voices to the general struggles and protests that have swept the world in the last 4 weeks.

Let’s hope for the good of the people that Mubarak sees his time over and move out of the way so the change can start taking place and Gaza siege be lifted once and for all.

The people have spoken “When people speak, despots, dictators, tyrants should shut up, or pack up and leave” Hamza El Alami said in one of his comments posted in facebook, the social network that have served as a meeting forum for social and peace activist of the world.
Hamza El Alami said “the US has not called on Mubarak to resign, and if they can control events in the M.E. as it used to, they will not hesitate to act and defend the SOB Mubarak. The people in Egypt has spoken, and so the rest of the oppressed people …in the Arab world; one by one they will rise against tyranny. American policy makers are not for democracy; the US rejected the Palestinian election’s results, and decided along with Israel and Mubarak to starve and strangulate 1.5 million people in Gaza. The US is for Israel and its racist policy, dictators, corrupt rulers and not democracy, at least not for Arabs. America has to face a new reality and reassess its policy that must be based on justice and not the support of ruthless dictators.”


THE WHITE HOUSE can not keep supporting Mubarak or other dictators and terrorist states for long time, risking being caught up in the same situation as Egypt, Tunisia, Jordan, Yemen, Pakistan where the people had spoken their rage throwing themselves to the streets to ask for justice.

In the past people in the US has revolved against policies, Domestic and Foreign, but never before since the civil war, the government has seen something like what is happening in Egypt, or what just developed in Tunisia, they are analyzing and tasting the intelligent and resolve of the people of the US.
They know that we are not silence any more, they can not risk to enrage 10 millions or 20 or 30 million people, not even imagine 100 millions of Americans in the streets of the US protesting, injustice in the courts, discrimination in the Tax System, Wages under the living standards of decency, Under Funded Education, Draconian Laws enacted by Bush and Company, Contaminated Food, Health Care unacceptable, really the government of the US is not ready to confront 100 million people claiming for equality and justice.

The white house is worry of the wave of dissent around the world is rolling down as an avalanche, a ball of protests growing every moment and they refused to speak the right words, “Mubarak Reign of Terror has to Stop, once and for all”.
I THINK WE ARE SEEING THE FALL OF THE EMPIRE, The emperor is Naked and refuse to recognized it. .
When the people finally speak the leaders shut up and Lead, that will be the lessons that every leader have to learn if they want to hold to the Chair a little longer.

It is a cheaper solution for the government to sacrifice a few dictators and one Terrorist State and live comfortable for another 10 or 20 years, enough time for the people of the world to completely wake up and smell the coffee.

Gaza, Palestine Strangled by two 

While all the unrest is growing in the world, Gaza is waiting for the world to speak for them, to help them to Tear the Walls down.
Revolution is at their Gates and is tempting, the blood is already boiling, the rage is in every mind, the RESISTANCE is standing stronger every day, there short time to lose. Every Citizen of the world STAND for Peace, Demand your leaders to fight for Peace and Justice for all.
Free the World, Stand for your Rights, Raise your Voice. We own it to us, if you want to stay free, you have to fight for it.

GAZAN YOUTH’S MANIFESTO FOR CHANGE

F**k Hamas!, F**k Israel!, F**k Fatah!, F**k UN. F**k UNWRA. F**k USA!
We, the youth in Gaza, are so fed up with Israel, Hamas, the occupation, the violations of human rights and the indifference of the international community!
We want to scream and break this wall of silence, injustice and indifference. Like the Israeli F16’s breaking the wall of sound; we want to scream with all the power in our souls in order to release this immense frustration that consumes us because of this f*****g situation we live in.
We are like lice between two nails living a nightmare inside a nightmare, no room for hope, no space for freedom.
We are sick of being caught in this political struggle, sick of coal dark nights with airplanes circling above our homes, sick of innocent farmers getting shot in the buffer zone because they are taking care of their lands, sick of bearded guys walking around with their guns abusing their power, beating up or incarcerating young people demonstrating for what they believe in.
Sick of the wall of shame that separates us from the rest of our country and keeps us imprisoned in a stamp-sized piece of land.
Sick of being portrayed as terrorists, homemade fanatics with explosives in our pockets and evil in our eyes.
Sick of the indifference we meet from the international community, the so-called experts in expressing concerns and drafting resolutions, but cowards in enforcing anything they agreed on.
We are sick and tired of living a shitty life, being kept in jail by Israel, beaten up by Hamas, and completely ignored by the rest of the world.
There is a revolution growing inside of us, an immense dissatisfaction and frustration that will destroy us unless we find a way of canalizing this energy into something that can challenge the status Quo and give us some kind of hope.
The final drop that made our hearts tremble with frustration and hopelessness happened on November 30th, when Hamas’ officers came to Sharek Youth Forum, a leading youth organization (http://www.sharek.ps) with their guns, lies and aggressiveness, throwing everybody outside, incarcerating some and prohibiting Sharek from working.
A few days later, demonstrators in front of Sharek were beaten and some incarcerated. We are really living a nightmare inside a nightmare. It is difficult to find words for the pressure we are under.
We barely survived the Operation Cast Lead, where Israel very effectively bombed the shit out of us, destroying thousands of homes and even more lives and dreams.
They did not get rid of Hamas, as they intended, but they sure scared us forever and distributed post traumatic stress syndrome to everybody, as there was nowhere to run.
We are youth with heavy hearts. We carry in ourselves a heaviness so immense that it makes it difficult to us to enjoy the sunset. How to enjoy it when dark clouds paint the horizon and bleak memories run past our eyes every time we close them?
We smile in order to hide the pain. We laugh in order to forget the war.
We hope in order not to commit suicide here and now.
During the war we got the unmistakable feeling that Israel wanted to erase us from the face of the earth. During the last years Hamas has been doing all they can to control our thoughts, behavior and aspirations.
We are a generation of young people used to face missiles, carrying what seems to be a impossible mission of living a normal and healthy life, and only barely tolerated by a massive organization that has spread in our society as a malicious cancer disease, causing mayhem and effectively killing all living cells, thoughts and dreams on its way as well as paralyzing people with its terror regime. Not to mention the prison we live in, a prison sustained by a so-called democratic country.
History is repeating itself in its most cruel way and nobody seems to care. We are scared.
Here in Gaza we are scared of being incarcerated, interrogated, hit, tortured, bombed, killed.
We are afraid of living, because every single step we take has to be considered and well-thought, there are limitations everywhere, we cannot move as we want, say what we want, do what we want, sometimes we even cant think what we want because the occupation has occupied our brains and hearts so terrible that it hurts and it makes us want to shed endless tears of frustration and rage!
We do not want to hate, we do not want to feel all of this feelings, we do not want to be victims anymore. ENOUGH! Enough pain, enough tears, enough suffering, enough control, limitations, unjust justifications, terror, torture, excuses, bombings, sleepless nights, dead civilians, black memories, bleak future, heart aching present, disturbed politics, fanatic politicians, religious bullshit, enough incarceration!
WE SAY STOP! This is not the future we want!
We want three things; We want to be free. We want to be able to live a normal life and We want peace.
Is that too much to ask?
We are a peace movement consistent of young people in Gaza and supporters elsewhere that will not rest until the truth about Gaza is known by everybody in this whole world and in such a degree that no more silent consent or loud indifference will be accepted.
This is the Gazan youth’s manifesto for change!
We will start by destroying the occupation that surrounds ourselves, we will break free from this mental incarceration and regain our dignity and self respect.
We will carry our heads high even though we will face resistance. We will work day and night in order to change these miserable conditions we are living under.
We will build dreams where we meet walls.
We only hope that you – yes, you reading this statement right now! – can support us. In order to find out how, please write on our wall or contact us directly: freegazayouth@hotmail.com
We want to be free, we want to live, we want peace.
FREE GAZA YOUTH!

************************************************************************************

I m speechless this is what I want to hear.

I wanted to hear the youth speaking, I do no know if will make a difference now, but certainly your message will spread in the world, in the mind of the old and tired souls, tired of their struggles. They also need to hear you speaking, they stop their fight long time ago. The occupation put a pacifies en their minds. But has come out to given hopes again.
Your message will infuse energy to the resistance, to the old and decrepit bodies that have fought for more than 6 decades without seeing compassion from the world, that have not received justice from the international bodies than have appointed themselves as the saviors of the world, to the peace activists, the justice seekers that are fighting for your land. To the world that has seen themselves as passive actors in their own dramas.
To the ignorant that has change passive messages for the chance to work and bring food to their table.
To the victims of injustice that thought that was no more hope.
The young generation it has to show us the old generation that we still can change our world.
I was almost giving up my fight for Gaza, I was getting stiff and tired of yelling, writing, posting, complaining. I thought no one was listening, but I was wrong.
This Manifesto full or courage. Rage dissatisfaction and pain have given me hopes again.
I m awake again, your words have giving me the food for the soul that I was missing.
I love you Gaza, I m proud of you, I m with you, in your fight against indifference, against the oppression of your mind, in this fight for your land, for your human rights, for your motherless children, and your childless mothers, I m with you with your olive trees that with one last stand they resist to let go and still embracing the land, I m with you, with your flag, that not being mine, have awaken the fighter spirit on me.
You want to clean your image that for long time have been stained by Israel and Western media propaganda machine.
I want to help you; your strong voices give me impulse to fight for you.
I always thought that the youth in the world has different genetic material, at least different form the last generation, the one that have grown up tired and have given indifference in exchange for temporal peace.
I m sharing your words in every wall that I find, in every blog available to me, my channels, everywhere that there is space to post a letter of hope.
Thanks Gaza youth I love you all…Free Palestine.
