HEADLINE NEWS - TERRORIST ACTION

There have been some over the top headlines recently...

Terrorist supporter might make Toronto his home
Warsame moved to Minnesota in early 2002. Erlinder says FBI agents violated Warsame’s rights when they took him to a military base and questioned him for days without advising him of his right to a lawyer. Later, Erlinder claims that a U.S. prosecutor offered Warsame a deal — testify against Zacarias Moussaoui in return for U.S. citizenship. (Moussaoui has since been convicted as a 9/11 co-conspirator and is serving a life sentence.) Warsame refused, insisting he never met Moussaoui. “Because he wouldn’t perjure himself he was held in solitary confinement,” Erlinder charges, denouncing Warsame’s treatment as “just one legal abuse after another.”

“This guy has been (psychologically) tortured,” says Erlinder, professor of constitutional law at William Mitchell College of Law in Minnesota. “Sensory deprivation — the methods used to drive people mad without beating them.”

Warsame spent 5-and-a-half years in solitary confinement during pre-trial custody. He was let out of his cell only one hour a day.

I would suggest reading the entire short article and note that Warsame's circumstances were easily mainpulated and escalated into painting him as an accessory to terror. How can it be acceptable evidence when a confession was extracted under such duress and torture? Another poor victim processed through kangaroo court to serve as a headline.

And it's the headline that gets me. Trumpeting him up to be something he probably isn't, only because it's convenient to keep an non-issue alive and well in the press and maintain the fear and anxiety level the PTB feel is necessary to be drilled deep into the public consciousness.

MORE MEDIA MANIPULATION AND DOUBLE SPEAK

TERRORIST CRASHES AIRCRAFT INTO BUILDING


yup, this says it all, tongue in cheek of course...media headlines are mostly derived from HOT AIR!

And then there was Canada's bid for a seat at the UN...
UN vote a rebuff to Harper’s I’m right-you’re-wrong approach to the world
Free beer and maple syrup are not enough. By denying Canada a seat on the United Nations Security Council, the rest of the world has served notice that – in its view – this country’s foreign policy is bankrupt.

That’s not because the 192 other nations that make up the UN General Assembly particularly dislike Canada. They don’t.

But clearly, a vast majority prefer the Canada they thought they knew, a Canada that strove to defuse international tensions by focusing not just on who was right or wrong but on what was fair and reasonable.

Tuesday’s vote was the world’s response to Prime Minister Stephen Harper – a great, big raspberry for the man who has attempted to introduce what he calls a new morality into the realm of Canadian foreign affairs.

With Harper, Canada’s more measured approach to the Middle East came to an abrupt end. Under the new morality, Israel was right, period.

Ignatieff says Conservatives to blame for UN loss
The Conservative government has accepted no responsibility for Canada losing the vote to Portugal on Tuesday, instead accusing Ignatieff of scuttling the deal with critical comments he made last month.

Canada withdraws from race for UN council seat
Canada’s concession came less than 24 hours after a diplomatic snub of the highest order on Monday, when a military plane carrying Defence Minister Peter MacKay and Chief of Defence Staff Gen. Walt Natynczyk was denied permission to land in the United Arab Emirates.

That dispute is linked to failed negotiations to expand aviation links between the two countries — a dispute that also means Canada is going to be forced to pull up stakes at its formerly secret military base near Dubai.

Canadian military leaving Dubai base: MacKay
It’s an embarrassing Thanksgiving when secret talks break down to save a secret military base that was never really secret at all.

Established in the fall of 2001 as a logistics base just as Canadian Forces prepared for the post-911 campaign in Afghanistan, Camp Mirage has been a poorly guarded secret from the beginning. Despite numerous Internet leaks and media accounts, Canadian Forces officials have insisted on maintaining the charade of secrecy concerning the Canadian annex at the UAE’s Al Minhad Air Base — not on the grounds of operational security, but rather with the intent of not embarrassing the host country by openly acknowledging the armed Canadian presence.

To discover the real reason behind the snub at the UN, read on...

Insiders surprised by Israel trade announcement ahead of UN seat vote
UNITED NATIONS — International Trade Minister Peter Van Loan has announced a bid to strengthen the trade relationship with Israel — a move whose timing could affect Canada’s bid to win a seat on the United Nations Security Council.

The 192-member General Assembly votes Tuesday for five new members of the 15-member council — with Canada locked in a close three-way race against Germany and Portugal for two seats reserved for Western powers.

Since Arab and Muslim countries either control or have varying degrees of influence over a majority of the votes in the assembly, Van Loan’s announcement has the potential to lose Canada support in the ballot.

The rest of the article suggests that the UN is not objective, but singles Israel out consistently while other incidents of racism are enacted all over the world...obviously written by a zionist for a zionist audience with no mention of Israel's miserable track record and violation of basic human rights to the people of Palestine.

So could it be possible that the tide is shifting enough that many small countries are standing up to the zionists?

Mr. Harpercrite, surprise, surprise, surprise...your dictatorship is ineffective outside Canada's borders. But we won't see THAT in the headlines.
