Iran buys more time at nuclear conference

* Conference stalls for sixth consecutive day

VIENNA: A 130-nation nuclear meeting stalled for its sixth consecutive day Monday after Iran refused to commit itself to a compromise meant to break a deadlock over Tehran’s opposition to language of the agenda.

Diplomats at the conference meant to work on strengthening the Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty told The Associated Press that the decision by the chairman of the meeting to skirt the issue at least until Tuesday came after Iran asked for an extra day of consultations with its capital. But the diplomats, who demanded anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss confidential issues, suggested that Iran’s request was nothing more than a delaying tactic, noting it had already had three days since the meeting was adjourned on Friday to come up with a decision.

“The Iranians seem chiefly interested in seeing this meeting fail,” said one of the delegates, suggesting Tehran’s main focus was preventing any debate on its defiance of a UN Security Council demand that it stop all aspects of its uranium enrichment program. Another delegate, from a non-aligned country, a group that normally backs Iran on nuclear issues said that even among non-aligned nations “the mood was bad” because of Tehran’s unyielding stance.

Leading Iraqi Sunni Leader Seeks Timeline, Rejects ‘Soft Partition’ Plan Advanced By U.S. Experts
Today, Iraqi Vice President Tariq Al-Hashimi, a top Sunni leader, threatened to pull out of the government and withdraw his 44-member bloc from the Iraqi parliament if long overdue constitutional changes aren’t made by May 15th.

Al-Hashimi complained about the lack of progress in Iraq’s political transition and specifically asked for guarantees that Iraq would not be split into Sunni, Shiite, and Kurdish states.

This particular demand by the Sunni leader rejects ideas promoted by the likes of Council of Foreign Relations fellow Les Gelb and Brookings fellow Michael O’Hanlon, demonstrating that the so-called “soft partition” just won’t work in Iraq because it lacks support of a key group - Iraq’s Sunnis.

Instead, what is needed is a comprehensive plan for getting American troops out of Iraq’s civil war and working for a political settlement to Iraq’s conflict with intensified regional diplomacy, as detailed in the Center for American Progress’s Iraq plan, Strategic Redeployment.

May 7, 2007 10:48 PM

But in my opinion Maher has been getting it wrong a lot lately. It started a year or so ago when he thought the Iraq occupation could turn out to be a good thing. He has since retracted that opinion, but his timing has been off, he's been a little more inappropriately arrogant, protective of his right wingnut guests, and has been promoting his libertarian stance more so.

As far as this side getting it wrong with Imus, listen to Sam's last day podcast. (Obviously, we got some serious regression going on without Sam...SAM WE NEED YOU!!!! I holding out that one of Nova-M surprises in several weeks will include him.)

Forgive me for being superficial...but Imus is the incarnate of Beavis and Butthead (and I don't like any of them)...does anybody else see it?

Kidney donation mends couple's broken marriage

A couple who grew apart and had agreed to split up were reunited by a life-threatening crisis.

After more than 10 years of marriage, Chip and Cindy Altemos agreed about five years ago to separate, see other people and begin divorce proceedings. But when 48-year-old Chip was hospitalized with kidney failure in September, Cindy, 49, offered him one of hers.

The two agreed to separate because of "all the woes and troubles" they brought from previous marriages.

But Cindy Altemos, on the verge of becoming Chip?s exwife, said this week: "He was still my husband."

As a former phlebotomist who had worked with renal patients, she said she knew "exactly what he was up against" and had long thought he eventually would need a transplant because he had had juvenile diabetes. When they married, she had promised to be a donor.

"There was no way I could walk around with two kidneys and he had none," she said. "It was the right thing to do."

The transplant took place Feb. 21.

Iran seeks diplomacy, not coercion April 29, 2007

RE "Bringing Iran around" (Editorial, April 18): Your support for sanctions on Iran over its nuclear program is untenable and lacks justification, in light of Iran's rights under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and its record of extensive cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency. The IAEA has repeatedly confirmed the absence of any diversion to military purposes.

Iran is willing to take additional steps to allay any international concerns about the country's peaceful nuclear program. However, as a matter of principle, Iran is opposed to any preconditions for dialogue and will not yield to the outside pressures to forfeit its rights.

You fail to criticize the double standard by the United Nations, which tries to deny the legitimate rights of Iran while simultaneously turning a blind eye to Israel's proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.

Your preference for sanctions ignores that this path will only yield more resolutions of the UN Security Council and more resistance from Iran, the outcome of which will be no resolution but greater chances for confrontation.

Instead of coercive sanctions, a different path is called for to resolve the issue, based on international norms, respect for Iran's legitimate rights, and prudent diplomacy.

U.S. Debates Deterrence for Nuclear Terrorism

Every week, a group of experts from agencies around the government — including the C.I.A., the Pentagon, the F.B.I. and the Energy Department — meet to assess Washington’s progress toward solving a grim problem: if a terrorist set off a nuclear bomb in an American city, could the United States determine who detonated it and who provided the nuclear material?

So far, the answer is maybe.

War Dog said...

A nuclear Iran would not resemble any other nuclear power. There could be no stable "balance of terror" involving that Islamic Republic. Unlike nuclear threats of the cold war, which were governed by mutual assumptions of rationality and mutual assured destruction, a world with a nuclear-armed Iran could explode at any moment.

Although it might still seem reasonable to suggest a postponement of preemption until Iran were more openly nuclear, the collateral costs of any such delay could be unendurable.

While there is some disagreement on the idea of troop deadlines for US soldiers in Iraq, all sides seem to be on board with the amount included in the bill to fund the war.

Including the $124.2 billion bill, the total cost of the Iraq war may reach $456 billion in September, according to the National Priorities Project, an organization that tracks public spending.

The amount got us wondering: What would $456 billion buy?

Iran willing to improve relations with U.S., official says

Iran's foreign ministry spokesman said Sunday his country was willing, under the right conditions, to improve its chilly relations with the U.S. despite having passed up the opportunity for direct talks at last week's Iraq conference.

Both nations had previously sounded interested in meeting at the conference, which was held in the Egyptian resort town of Sharm el-Sheik, but the only direct contact came in a casual chat between two lower ranking officials.

Despite the missed opportunity, Mohammad Ali Hosseini said in his weekly news briefing that it is possible to improve U.S.-Iran relations if several "necessary preliminaries" are established.

"Good will is one of the important elements, political will is one of the other elements," he said. "If these preliminaries and grounds are provided, opportunity for reconstruction and revision in relations will be created."

They would be effective because the US has at its disposal the "McInerney Plan" (after Lt. Gen. Thomas McInerney, USAF/ret.).

It calls, in part, for an immediate strike force to hit Iran's nuclear development facilities, command and control centers, integrated air defenses, selected Air Force and Navy units, and its Shahab-3 missiles, using more than 2,500 aim points.

Operationally, the United States Air Force is best configured for such a complex task, but it would not necessarily be impossible for the Israeli Air Force to execute.

Do you know a country that has Nuclear Weapon that uses suicide bombers as a terror weapon?

War Dog said...

It would be lawful because the US and/or Israel would be acting in appropriate self-defense.

Both countries could act on behalf of the international community and could do so lawfully without wider approval.

The right of self-defense by forestalling an attack has a long and authoritative history in international law. In the 1625 classic "On the Law of War and Peace," Hugo Grotius expresses the enduring principle: "It be lawful to kill him who is preparing to kill…."

Today, some scholars say that Article 51 of the UN Charter overrides that right. But international law is not a suicide pact.

A special committee of the World Bank's governing board increased pressure on President Paul D. Wolfowitz to resign Monday, concluding that he went too far in arranging a job and pay raises for his companion.

The seven-member committee did not make its report public, but a bank official with ties to the panel said Wolfowitz was given only a day or two to respond. The maneuver seemed designed to force him to step down quickly, thus avoiding further public action in the controversy.

The report was characterized as a 300-page indictment of Wolfowitz's management of the international community's premier anti-poverty institution, according to sources familiar with the document. The sources declined to be identified because they were not authorized to speak for the committee or the bank.

In a further sign of Wolfowitz's deteriorating position, one of his top aides, Kevin Kellems, resigned Monday. He had served as a senior adviser and director of external relations strategy during Wolfowitz's time at the bank.

"Given the current environment surrounding the leadership of the World Bank Group, it is very difficult to be effective in helping to advance the mission of the institution," Kellems said, adding that he was leaving to pursue other opportunities.

Instead it is more of an essay documentary in which Rehov sets out to understand the psychopathology of the Palestinian suicide bomber.

Other explanations are more complex, such as the idea that suicide bombers are subconsciously responding to their heightened sexual repression and frustration.

Is International Law Relevant to Arms Control? By Thomas Graham, Jr.

Chicago Journal of International Law Spring 2003

To sum up, military action against Iraq did not appear to be directed at protecting the status quo. No immediate attack by Iraq threatened the United States or its allies. No evidence had been advanced that explained why immediate military action against Iraq was necessary. And, finally, the military force available to Iraq appeared to be limited in scope and effectiveness. Thus, this preemptive attack on Iraq, without the sanction of the Security Council, does not appear to have been consistent with international law. A majority of the members of the Security Council interpreted Resolution 1441 (and all past resolutions) as requiring a new Security Council resolution authorizing the use of force, based on the reports of the inspectors, before it could be said that military action against Iraq was taken pursuant to Security Council auspices. And surely, a majority of the Security Council is the appropriate interpreter of its own resolutions, as opposed to one or two of its members.

Thus, if the plan of preemptive military action against Iraq, taken outside of the generally held interpretations of Resolution 1441, is illustrative of the proper interpretation of the new Strategy doctrine, the doctrine must be regarded as seriously questionable under international law. If, on the other hand, the clause stating that the US would be prepared to act preemptively, alone if necessary, is properly interpreted as referring to action either pursuant to international law rules or as authorized by the Security Council, then the Strategy doctrine would be consistent with international law. As of April 2003, the former would seem to be the correct interpretation. The Bush administration made it clear that, in its opinion, it did not need a new Security Council resolution authorizing the invasion of Iraq. This was contrary to the views of a majority of the Security Council, which did not interpret Resolution 1441 as authorizing force. According to an article in the Washington Post on March 17, 2003, the administration gave the United Nations one more day to support the US/British draft resolution which would have authorized force, but that the administration had made it clear that this was "mostly for show." [FN50] Indeed, Robert D. Novak, in his column in the Chicago Sun Times on the same day, indicated that the Vice President had implied in a private meeting on Capitol Hill the previous week that "the quest for UN sanctioning" for war in Iraq was "merely a means of securing Britain as a junior military partner." [FN51] And, as noted above, a preemptive attack on Iraq was not at this time justifiable under the rules of international law.

In conclusion, the above analysis indicates that the apparent intended implementation of the new Strategy is not consistent with international law.

Three campesino leaders from San Salvador Atenco were each sentenced to 67 years and six months in prison for kidnapping, local media reported Saturday.

The sentence comes almost exactly a year after a violent clash between residents of Atenco and state and federal police troops.

Ignacio del Valle, Felipe Álvarez and Héctor Galindo, leaders of The United People´s Front to Defend the Land (FPDT), were informed of the decision on Friday night. They now have five days to appeal the verdict.

Who Can Imprison the Fury of a Volcano?
Letter from Nacho del Valle, Sentenced to 67 Years in Prison, from “the La Palma Extermination Camp” in Mexico

By Ignacio del Valle
Peoples Front for the Defense of the Land, Atenco, Mexico

May 7, 2007

Introduction: Brief Synopsis of the Struggles in Atenco

One year after the brutal police attack against the town of San Salvador Atenco in Mexico, sentences of 67 years were handed down to three leaders of the People’s Front in Defense of the Land (FPDT), Ignacio Del Valle, Felipe Alvarez, and Hector Galindo in retaliation for the town’s effective resistance to the expropriation of its lands for the purpose of building a regional airport.

On May 3 and 4, 2006, two young boys were killed in Atenco and Texcoco and 207 people imprisoned, most of whom were subjected to cruel tortures including the rape of 26 women on a 6-hour bus ride, yet not one police murderer or torturer has been brought to justice. All year long, 28 people have been in prison, never having been released on bail, and 172 still face charges (most of them for blocking a highway and 26 for kidnapping).

The three FPDT leaders were tried and condemned for the offense of kidnapping, a highly exaggerated charge having to do with the detention of public officials for short periods of time in February and April of 2006. The three men still face other charges related to the events of May 3 and 4.

During a week of demonstrations in support of the prisoners, two of which were headed up by Subcomandante Marcos and members of the Sixth Commission of the Other Campaign, several messages from prisoners were read, including the following letter from Ignacio Del Valle.

Letter from Ignacio del Valle from the La Palma extermination camp
May 4, 2007

To all my brothers, sisters, and comrades: From the bottom of our hearts I send you greetings and a warm hug, wishing you serenity of heart and harmony of action, always following the same star, the route that leads us to our long-cherished dream, a dream that we together will make real though we may travel a path of pain and rage.

I know that everyone who should be present is present: those of you who have taken into yourselves our pain, our rage, our impotence, our cry, those of you who have always been there in silence, withstanding, resisting, walking, constructing the paths that await our footsteps, setting out in unity towards horizons that our grandparents have forged with suffering and death, without selling out, without being broken, bearing up, brandishing in your fists a thousand futures like flags waving in new dawns of hope.

A year ago today the beast attacked us, wounding our most sacred sentiments in the vilest, most cowardly way, leaving a deep wound that makes us tremble with rage, one we will never forget, one that makes us redouble our efforts to stay on the march, never turning back. Though the road may be slow, torturous and fraught with dangers that threaten us unceasingly, we won’t stop. We are a stream, and at the call of the rains we’ll join forces with others in a mighty flow to drown the beast, with a roar that will break the bars imprisoning our most sublime dreams of justice and freedom.

To all of you we send our gratitude flowing from feelings that have survived the brutal attack that filled our souls and our flesh with wounds, fear and pain. In the face of the drama of repression and the rabid attack against our people, how could we forget your unflinching comradeship and the blood you shed when we dared to say “enough is enough”! From you no handouts or lies of goodwill and mercy! What should we make of “goodwill” when they exploit, humiliate, and murder us in the name of the law and take away the creative force with which our hands shape matter, bringing life to it? What should we make of “justice” when they denigrate our struggle by outrageously casting us in the role of criminals? And then, faced with our town’s demand for justice, they pose as victims! They use the most perverse measures to impose repressive conditions, instilling fear to teach people a lesson.

But in spite of all this, the beast has made another blunder. Who can imprison the fury of a volcano, the silence of centuries that explodes in rage and pain? Who has ever imprisoned all the wings of liberty that fly like shining lights, breaking through the fog that traps our dreams? Who has ever imprisoned the light that projects our yearnings, that flashes as a wake-up call and guides us on our march towards horizons of justice and freedom? Who can stop the march of your footsteps?

To all our brothers and sisters, I reiterate our recognition, our respect for you as human beings, and our gratitude for your revolutionary solidarity.

For collectives, for organizations large or small of all sectors, neighborhoods, students, farmers, indigenous brothers and sisters, whether from the cities, the country, or the mountains—-the struggle continues.

Prison degrades but it doesn’t kill; the person who dies is the one who gets broken, the one who gives up.

From La Palma extermination camp, IGNACIO DEL VALLE , Peoples Front in Defense of the Land.

Senate Nixes Drug Importation

The Senate on Monday effectively blocked a plan to allow the importation of low-cost prescription drugs from other developed countries.

Lawmakers voted 49-40 to compel the Food and Drug Administration to certify that imported medications would be safe. However, the Bush administration claimed that it could not fulfill that responsibility.

Monday's action stalled the drive by U.S. Sen. Byron Dorgan and his allies to let American consumers purchase low-cost prescription drugs from suppliers in Canada, European countries, Australia, New Zealand and Japan.

Instead, the vote represented a roadblock to the importation of low-cost medications and signaled yet one more victory for the influential prescription drug industry including its lobby in Washington, D.C., the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturing Association.

Bunch, who was an African American, received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1950 for his work in the Middle East.

As Jewish leader David Ben-Gurion recorded in his personal history of Israel: “From 1946 to 1947 there were scarcely any Arab attacks on the Yishuv [the Jewish community in Palestine].”

The same could not be said for the Zionists. Jewish terrorists waged an intense and bloody campaign against the Palestinians, British, and even some Jews who opposed them leading up to the establishment of Israel.

The two major Jewish terror organizations in pre-independence Palestine were the Irgun Zvai Leumi—National Military Organization, NMO, also known by the Hebrew letters Etzel—founded in 1937, and the Lohamei Herut Israel, Fighters for the Freedom of Israel, Lehi in the Hebrew acronym, also known as the Stern Gang after its leader Avraham Stern, known as Yair, founded in 1940.

The Irgun was led by Menachem Begin, the future Israeli prime minister who was a leading proponent of Revisionist Zionism, the militant branch of Zionism pioneered by Vladimir Zeev Jabotinsky, which openly despised the Arabs and sought restoration of what it called Eretz Yisrael, the ancient land of Israel. By this was meant “both sides of the Jordan,” the Irgun slogan meaning all of Palestine and Jordan was the rightful home of the Jews.

Another belief of Begin’s was that of the “fighting Jew,” a romanticized idea expressed in Jabotinsky’s old Betar movement song of “we shall create, with sweat and blood, a race of men, strong, brave and cruel.” Israeli scholar Avishai Margalit translated the verse as “proud, generous and cruel,” adding: “Many are still waiting for the generous part to emerge.”

No more bees, no more pollination, no more plants, no more animals, no more man."

Deal Is Offered for Chief’s Exit at World Bank By STEVEN R. WEISMAN
Published: May 8, 2007
WASHINGTON, May 7 — Leading governments of Europe, mounting a new campaign to push Paul D. Wolfowitz from his job as World Bank president, signaled Monday that they were willing to let the United States choose the bank’s next chief, but only if Mr. Wolfowitz stepped down soon, European officials said.

Yves Logghe/Associated Press
Paul D. Wolfowitz, president of the World Bank, at a news conference at European Council headquarters in Brussels last week.

European officials had previously indicated that they wanted to end the tradition of the United States picking the World Bank leader. But now the officials are hoping to enlist American help in persuading Mr. Wolfowitz to resign voluntarily, rather than be rebuked or ousted.

The goal, they said, is to avert a public rupture of the bank board over a vote, possibly later this week, to sanction Mr. Wolfowitz. Even if the vote is a reprimand, they said, it could effectively make it impossible for him to stay on.

'Pipelines hit' in Nigeria delta
A militant group active in oil-rich southern Nigeria says it has bombed three major oil pipelines.
The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (Mend) said it had attacked pipelines in Bayelsa State.

The group has led several attacks on oil facilities and has abducted foreign workers in its campaign to win a larger share of the region's oil wealth.

Nigeria is Africa's largest oil producer but last year militant attacks cut production by more than a quarter.

Government officials confirmed that the attacks had taken place in the Brass and Akassa areas without giving details of the damage caused.

The pipelines criss-cross the swamps and creeks of the Delta, usually running above ground.

The BBC's Alex Last in Nigeria says they are easy targets as an attack on a single pipeline can significantly affect production and exports.

The militants had earlier warned that they would step up attacks on oil installations in the region as "parting gift" to President Olusegun Obasanjo who stands down in three weeks time.


They say the attacks were also in pursuance of their resolve to cripple the Nigerian crude oil export industry.

The militants say they will continue their renewed campaign "indefinitely with attacks on all pipelines, platforms and support vessels".

"All fighters involved in this attack have since returned to base without further incident," Mend said in an email to the media.

It is not clear why the militants have stepped up their campaign after a lull in violence during Nigeria's general elections, but they say they want to remind the incoming government that the Niger Delta question has not left with Mr Obasanjo.

Olmert Survives 3 No-Confidence Votes
Olmert's Government Easily Passes Test As Israeli Parliament Rejects 3 No-Confidence Motions

Embattled Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert passed a parliamentary test with surprising ease Monday, defeating three parliamentary motions of no confidence by wide margins.

Under Israeli law, an absolute majority of 61 of the Knesset's 120 members is needed to adopt a motion forcing the government to resign. But each of the motions drew only 28 "yes" votes, while the vote against ranged from 60 to 62, with six to nine members abstaining.

Olmert has been under increasing criticism over last summer's costly, bloody and inconclusive war in Lebanon. Last week an official government commission issued a scathing report on the war, heaping blame on Olmert for failures in his decision-making process.

The report led to a chorus of calls for his resignation and a demonstration by more than 100,000 Israelis in Tel Aviv backing that demand, but Olmert said he was determined to stay on and correct the faults listed by the commission.

Despite the political turmoil, Olmert's ruling coalition holds a solid majority in parliament and appears safe for now. However, more tests loom.

At the end of May, the prime minister's main partner in the governing coalition, the Labor Party, has a primary election in which Defense Minister Amir Peretz is likely to be replaced as party leader.

Peretz also drew strong criticism from the war commission, and several of the candidates opposing him in the Labor ballot have indicated they would pull the party out of Olmert's government, leaving him without a majority in parliament.

GOP senator: Patience on Iraq is limited By ANNE FLAHERTY, Associated Press Writer
2 hours, 31 minutes ago



Senate Republican Whip Trent Lott (news, bio, voting record) says President Bush's new strategy in Iraq has until about fall before GOP members will need to see results.

Lott's comment Monday put a fine point on what Senate Republican stalwarts have been discussing quietly for weeks. It also echoed remarks made this weekend by House Minority Leader John Boehner (news, bio, voting record), R-Ohio, indicating the GOP's limited patience on the war.

"I do think this fall we have to see some significant changes on the ground, in Baghdad and other surrounding areas," Lott, R-Miss., told reporters.

Lott declined to say what he thinks should happen if Congress does not see improvement in the security situation by then. But he said lawmakers have time before they must decide.

Bush announced in January that he planned to send to Iraq 21,500 more combat troops, plus several thousand more support troops, in an attempt to tamp down violence in Baghdad and the western Anbar province. Gen. David Petraeus, the U.S. commander in Iraq, said he could give a better assessment in September of whether the strategy is working.

Republicans have agreed to uphold Bush's veto of $124.2 billion legislation that would have funded the war but called for troops to start coming home this fall. Without the two-thirds majority support needed to override Bush's veto, Democrats this week were redrafting the bill.

White House officials have sought to play down the expectations of the September review as merely a progress report, but many Republicans have latched onto the date as a critical juncture. War funding for this fiscal year, while still under negotiation, is expected to run out Sept. 30.

"Obviously, his (Petraeus') response or developments will make a difference in the next fiscal year," said Lott.

Iran accepts compromise at nuke meeting By GEORGE JAHN, Associated Press Writer
1 minute ago

Iran on Tuesday accepted a compromise on the agenda of a 130-nation nuclear conference, clearing the way for the meeting to approve it and end six days of deadlock that threatened to doom the gathering to failure.

The issue stalling the meeting since it opened April 30 had been Tehran's refusal to accept a phrase calling for the "need for full compliance with" the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty.

Delegates said Tehran feared the language could lead to its becoming a target at the meeting because of its refusal to meet U.N. Security Council demands to cease uranium enrichment and other parts of its nuclear program that could be misused to make nuclear weapons.

A South African proposal accepted by consensus Tuesday will put an appended statement specifying that "all provisions" of the treaty must be fully observed — an allusion for the need for the United States and other nuclear weapons states to disarm.

With the Iranians showing no signs of compromise even after the South African proposal was floated Friday, a statement by Tehran's chief delegate, Ali Ashgar Soltanieh, that "my government can accept the proposal by South Africa" appeared to catch most delegations by surprise.

Subsequent approval was followed by brief, but relieved applause.

But the U.S. delegation criticized the Iranians, suggesting the delay had been unnecessary because it was clear all along that the phrase "full compliance" meant acceptance of all treaty provisions.

"It's been disappointing that as a result of Iranian obstruction of procedure, it has taken so long to get to the point of beginning substantive discussion," chief U.S. delegate Christopher A. Ford told reporters.

The phrase "all provisions" that Iran had been holding out for is a "restatement of the obvious," he added.

Iran argues it is entitled to enrich under the treaty provision giving all pact members the right to develop peaceful programs. But suspicions bred by nearly two decades of clandestine nuclear activities, including questionable black market acquisitions of equipment and blueprints that appear linked to weapons plans have led the U.N. Security Council to impose sanctions because of Tehran's refusal to mothball its enrichment program — which can generate energy or produce the fissile core of nuclear warheads.

The Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty calls on nations to pledge not to pursue nuclear weapons in exchange for a commitment by five nuclear powers — the U.S., Russia, Britain, France and China — to move toward nuclear disarmament. India and Pakistan, known nuclear weapons states, remain outside the treaty, as does Israel, which is considered to have such arms but has not acknowledged it.

Dems Unveil Their New Plan for Iraq
by BooMan
Tue May 8th, 2007 at 12:07:27 AM EST

Jonathan Weisman and Thomas E. Ricks report on the new Democratic war funding strategy in the House.

House Democratic leaders are coming together around legislation that would fund the war through September but would withhold more than half of those funds until July, when Bush would have to report on the Iraqi government's progress toward benchmarks such as quelling sectarian violence, disarming militias and sharing oil revenue equitably. Congress would then have to vote in late July to release the remaining funds...
The new House proposal would immediately provide about $43 billion of the $95.5 billion the administration says it needs to keep the war going through Sept. 30. That infusion would come with language establishing benchmarks of success for the Iraqi government, and it is likely to include tougher standards for resting, training and equipping troops. Binding timelines for troop withdrawals would be dropped to try to win Republican support and avoid a second veto.

The remaining $52.5 billion in the bill would be contingent on a second vote in late July, after the administration's progress report.

I like this strategy very much. It is more imaginative than anything I have come up with and anything I have noticed bandied about the internets. It should easily pass the House. In the Senate?


The bill, which could come to a House vote as early as Friday, faces significant obstacles in the Senate. Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (D-Nev.) wants to allow the House debate to unfold, in part to see whether the plan will appeal to Republicans.
I don't think we need to worry too much about the Senate. It should pass. We may have some pesky amendments to overcome, but it should pass.

This is what I wanted. Make the President keep coming back for more money and in a weaker position each time. Combined with standards on rest, equipment, and training for the troops, the bill will essentially end the war by the so-called 'slow bleed' approach. And, yet, it is flexible enough to allow the military to plan ahead and for Congress to react to unforeseen circumstances.

No wonder,

...White House spokesman Tony Snow pronounced the bill "not helpful."

Kudos to the Democratic
leadership. This is good thinking.

Obama is spot on about Detroit
by Chris in Paris · 5/08/2007 05:09:00 AM ET

It's disgraceful how badly Detroit has delivered in recent years. While other automakers were moving towards fuel efficiency Detroit made every effort to be combative and go in the opposite direction. The end result is tens of thousands of lost jobs and years away from competing on a global scale. It is in everyone's best interest to get Detroit producing sensible products that are environmentally friendly and that people want to buy instead of smearing environmentalists.

As a side note, whoever at GM thinks selling cars in Europe under the Chevy name is a good idea is kidding themselves. Chevy has a terrible reputation over here and the cars - whatever they are - look flimsier than a Yugo. Did GM hire the same team that sent the worst of Renault to America in the 1980s?

THIS JUST IN: World Bank panel finds Wolfowitz guilty
by John Aravosis (DC) · 5/07/2007 10:36:00 PM ET

It's nice to see bad people held accountable. Finally.

From the NYT:
A committee of World Bank directors has formally notified Paul D. Wolfowitz that they found him to be guilty of a conflict of interest in arranging for a pay raise and promotion for Shaha Ali Riza, his companion, in 2005. The findings stepped up the pressure on Mr. Wolfowitz to resign....

It was not clear whether the committee, consisting of 7 of the bank’s 24 board members, would remove Mr. Wolfowitz from his post or, more likely, express a loss of confidence in his leadership in a manner that might persuade him to resign. Bank officials say that a majority of the bank board has concluded that he should go.
And guess what, now we're paying a price for Bush putting Wolfie in this cushy job:
This official said that the overwhelming sentiment in Europe, as expressed in editorials, political commentaries and even web logs, was that European governments should never again let the United States pick the president of the World Bank all by itself.
Nice loss of prestige for the US, if we lose the prerogative of picking the Bank chief.

The Senate Judiciary Committee asked Bradley Schlozman, a former senior civil rights attorney and U.S. attorney, to speak with investigators.

Six arrested in plot to attack NJ army base

Tue May 8, 2007 8:57AM EDT

(Reuters) - Six New Jersey men have been arrested in what authorities said was a plot to kill soldiers at a U.S. Army installation in New Jersey, local media reported on Tuesday.

Investigators said the men planned to use automatic weapons to enter Fort Dix and kill as many soldiers as possible, according to the Newark Star-Ledger and television stations in Philadelphia and New York.

FBI agents arrested five of the men in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, and another elsewhere after members of the group allegedly attempted to buy automatic weapons, the Star-Ledger reported.

Michael Drewniak, a spokesman for U.S. attorney's office in Newark, New Jersey, confirmed the arrests but declined to offer details.

"There were terrorist arrests last evening," he said.

The suspects will be charged with terrorism conspiracy on Tuesday in federal court in Camden, New Jersey, according to the reports.

The suspects traveled over the last several months from New Jersey to the Pocono mountains area in northeastern Pennsylvania where they practiced firing automatic weapons, the reports said.

Tenet Receives Millions From Corporations Profiting Off Iraq
Salon | Tim Shorrock | May 7, 2007 05:50 PM

If you go by the book jacket of his new memoir, "At the Center of the Storm," George Tenet is enjoying the life of a retired government servant teaching at Georgetown University, where he was appointed to the faculty in 2004. The former CIA director played up the academic image when he kicked off the recent media blitz for his new book by doing an interview for CBS's "60 Minutes" from his spacious, book-lined office at the university. His academic salary, and the reported $4 million advance he received from publisher HarperCollins, should provide the former CIA director with more than enough money to live comfortably for the rest of his days and leave a substantial fortune to his children.

But those monies are hardly Tenet's entire income. While the swirl of publicity around his book has focused on his long debated role in allowing flawed intelligence to launch the war in Iraq, nobody is talking about his lucrative connection to that conflict ever since he resigned from the CIA in June 2004. In fact, Tenet has been earning substantial income by working for corporations that provide the U.S. government with technology, equipment and personnel used for the war in Iraq as well as the broader war on terror.

In his bid to buy Dow Jones for $5 billion, last week, the Australian-born owner of Fox News, Harper Collins, the New York Post, and The Times of London offered an unprecedented $60 a share for the company's remaining stock options, and nobody blinked, except members of the Bancroft family, owners of the Wall Street Journal, and controlling stockholders of Dow Jones.

But, insiders say, that for $10 a share more, the Bancrofts, too, may be willing to give it up for Rupert Murdoch.
Not only is no one in the mainstream media speaking out against the proposed takeover, but some even suggest it might not be a bad idea for this master at corporate monopoly to have his way with Dow Jones, and the Journal, arguing that, if a bit disfigured, the news will survive. After all, salmonella kills people, not sensationalism. And, if anybody's squawking, it must be behind closed doors where only family members can hear. Where is outrage at the thought that, sooner rather than later, the Wall Street Journal will look just like the New York Post, and Fox News? Where is the angst not merely from the public, but from the press corps that a company called News Corp. can buy and sell what we read? No one is asking what will happen to dissent, and a free press when big business and big news merge. Corporate profit, which has consumed the heart and soul of America, as well as the middle class, now looks to devour the information age like a bowl of sushi.

If he prevails, and acquires Dow Jones, Mr. Murdoch will lay claim to the second largest paper in the country, and the lion's share of newspaper profit. And, Rupert Murdoch will, once again, get to demonstrate his unfailing ability to flex, censor, and sway his way to the top. But, allowing for inflation, the $60 million question is, while he's had his eye on the Wall Street Journal for many years, why is the Fox News owner so hot for the Journal now, this close to a crucial presidential race? Having watched the Murdoch muscle at work, over the past decade or so, a pattern emerges, one that is as transparent as it is trans-fat.

The Daily Muck
By Will Thomas - May 8, 2007, 9:35 AM
Hiring Process Was Bypassed for Federal Prosecutor
"When he was counsel to a House subcommittee in 2005, Jay Apperson resigned after writing a letter to a federal judge in his boss's name, demanding a tougher sentence for a drug courier. As an assistant U.S. attorney in Virginia in the 1990s, he infuriated fellow prosecutors when he facetiously suggested a White History Month to complement Black History Month. Yet when Apperson was looking for a job recently, four senior Justice Department officials urged Jeffrey A. Taylor, the top federal prosecutor for the District of Columbia, to hire him. Taylor did, and allowed him to skip the rigorous vetting process that the vast majority of career federal prosecutors face." (Washington Post)

Sebelius warned Bush last year about Guard shortages. Kansas is currently missing approximately 60 percent of its National Guard equipment because of the war in Iraq, hampering its ability to respond to the recent tornadoes. Gov. Kathleen Sebelius (D) said that she has “written the Pentagon twice and spoke about the issue at great length with Bush in January 2006.” “He assured me that he had additional equipment in his budget a year ago. … Meanwhile, it doesn’t get any better. I’m at a loss,” Sebelius said, adding that she will bring up the issue again with the President when he visits Kansas on Wednesday.

Rep. Poe Quotes Ku Klux Klan Grand Wizard On House Floor »
Yesterday on the House floor, Rep. Ted Poe (R-TX) argued that the United States needs to immediately authorize funds for the war in Iraq. “Congress needs to quit talking about supporting the troops and put money where our mouths seem to be,” said Poe.

To make his case, he quoted “successful Confederate general” Nathan Bedford Forrest, but left out the fact that Forrest was also one of the original Grand Wizards of the Ku Klux Klan. Watch it:


Poe’s spokeswoman tried to justify the reference to Forrest, stating, that it “was used in an historical context comparing the request to Congress for support of the Confederate troops to the request that is being made today by our Generals in Iraq.” (Roll Call adds that it’s actually a misquote of Forrest as well.)

So remember, it’s perfectly fine to quote KKK Grand Wizards to make your argument, as long as it’s in a “historical context.”

More from the "terrorist plot" in New Jersey from CBS News:

Six men were arrested early Tuesday on charges they plotted to attack the Fort Dix Army base and "kill as many soldiers as possible," federal authorities said.

The six were scheduled to appear in U.S. District Court in Camden later Tuesday to face charges of conspiracy to kill U.S. servicemen, said Michael Drewniak, a spokesman for the U.S. Attorney's Office in New Jersey. Five of them lived in Cherry Hill, he said.

At the time of the arrests, the plot was in the planning stages and no attack was imminent, CBS News has learned. Officials said this is more of a "homegrown" plot with no ties to al Qaeda or any other international terrorist organization, CBS News reports.

Of the six being charged, four are from the former Yugoslavia, one is Turkish, and the other is Jordanian. Three of the men are illegal aliens, and just one is a U.S. citizen, CBS News reports.

The men were described as "Islamic radicals," U.S. Attorney's Office spokesman Greg Reinert said.

A law enforcement official said that the men had lived in the United States for some time and were arrested as part of a joint federal and local investigation.

The official spoke on condition of anonymity because documents in the case remain sealed.

Officials said this is more of a "homegrown" plot with no ties to al Qaeda or any other international terrorist organization, CBS News reports.

If there is an attack on US soil at this point, It is our actions that have led to it.

We haven't been "surrendering" all this time, we've been at war.

Blaming the words of critics of the war instead of the actions of our failed military strategy is fantasy. Our 'gunboat diplomacy' has not only made an attack more likely, but as I pointed out last night, is inconsistent with international law.

Don't even think you can get away with weaseling out of responsibility for such an attack and pinning blame on others, War Dog. You can put an attack on your outcome list, because you created it.

Anti-U.S. Uproar Sweeps Italy

The U.S. government has proposed to make Vicenza, Italy, the largest US military site in Europe, but the people of Vicenza, and all of Italy, have sworn it will never happen.

As with the story of the Downing Street Minutes two years ago this week, a major news story and huge controversy in Europe right now is unknown to Americans, despite the fact that it is all about the policies of the American government. In February of this year, 200,000 people descended on the Northeastern Italian town of Vicenza (population 100,000) to march in protest. Largely as a result, the Prime Minister of Italy was (temporarily) driven out of power. Meanwhile, just outside Vicenza, large tents now hold newly minted citizen activists keeping a 24-hour-per-day vigil and training hundreds of senior citizens, children, and families every day in how to nonviolently stop bulldozers. The bulldozers they are waiting for are American.

The conflict, should it come about, will be as surprising to American television viewers as were the attacks of 9-11, unless someone tells them ahead of time what is going on. This week a group of Italians is in Washington, D.C., attempting to do just that. A group of Italian Members of Parliament also visited Washington last month in opposition to the base.
