EU-Ministers Propose Yet Another Loophole in EU CO2-Emission Reduction Market
23-12-2003 21:02
A majority of EU-ministers spoke out last weekend on the 2005 European emission reduction market, advocating an unlimited use of climate projects abroad by private companies. Then it will be much cheaper to comply with the Kyoto reduction-targets in Europe; by linking these projects with the EU-trading regime, the price of reducing emissions falls sharply. Real solutions are being postponed and the dependence on the fossil fuel economy will be broadened. Earlier at the Climate Conference in Milan, the UN agreed on using genetically modified trees to "absorb" greenhousegasses and accordingly to produce tradeable "carbon credits".

US Forming Death Squads in Iraq
22-12-2003 20:46
According to respected journalist Robert Fisk in the London (UK) INDEPENDANT,hooded and masked gunmen have been seen searching cars and frisking people at official roadblocks in Iraq.This would fit the pattern for other territories, chiefly in Latin America where the USA flexes its muscle to enforce the plunder of other peoples and countries. Of course, these masked forces quickly graduate to murdering any and all seen as uncooperative with US policy and corporate interests.
Those needing public trial for terrorism are the masters of my own US government. Their behavior for half a century has been murderous, larcenous and now treasonous.
J'accuse.
