How the G8 Lied To The World On Aid

24-08-2005 09:34

World leaders are now preparing for the millennium summit to be held in New York next month, described by the UN as a "once-in-a-generation opportunity to take bold decisions". Yet the current draft outcome simply repeats what was agreed on aid and debt last month in Gleneagles. The reality of that G8 deal has recently emerged - and is likely to condemn the New York summit to be an expensive failure.

Seemingly great attainment?
The real scenario is likely to be someone like Dr Milne takes the stand and swears that microscopic traces of pollen on the suspect's shirt matches that produced by one or two flowers near the murder scene - the judge and jury nod their head and the defence lawyer, who failed high school science, looks worried and mounts an ineffective cross examination.

Government attacks General Aviation

23-08-2005 18:56

Many private pilots in the UK fly aircraft registered with the United States Federal Aviation Authority. This is not to cut corners on maintenance but because the FAA Instrument Rating qualification is easier to obtain and more relevant to the needs of General Aviation pilots. The government proposes to require that aircraft based in the UK are registered only with the Civil Aviation Authority. This will affect the availablilty of IR qualifications and have an adverse effect on the safety of all who fly. HELP TO FIGHT THESE CHANGES. WRITE TO THE CAA AND YOUR MP.

23-08-2005 17:42

This begs the question, then, who shot this man seven times in the head, and why? Since it would appear that the 7/21 devices were planted in order to provide investigators with "evidence" intended to frame someone, and distract from the Bliar Government's complete inability to prove its Conspiracy Theory regarding 7/7, was this man silenced for something he saw? I think it's about time for an independent investigation of all aspects of 7/7/21, to find out what really took place, and who was truly responsible.
