Another one for the conspiracy theorists

In a post on the video page here there is a clip of an interview with the head of eight Danish researchers who claim to have found explosive dust in the World Centre rubble. The aim of the disseminators isn't to propagate the hoary old tale of 9/11 being an inside job but to wonder why the MSM is not picking up the story.

We will be hearing more about the "torture memos". In fact as I type this Radio 1 is doing a piece on it with a guy who wrote a book five years ago about it. But here is a story that calls into question Karl Rove's use of the truth. Rove is claiming that torturing Khalid Sheik Muhammed (the waterboard victim - 183 times in a month) stopped a plane flying into a tower on the West Coast. Fortunately that plot was detected using normal intelligence methods befiore Khalid's torture, one year later. This sets the background for this delicious quote from the writer, Jed Lewison of Daily KOS.
"But the plot was already a dead letter. If foiling the Library Tower plot was the reason to water-board Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, then that water-boarding was more than cruel and unjust. It was a waste of water."

Just the usual election woes for BC liberals. In every election candidates will not perform well, some will exposed as homophobic and racist, based on some email or You-tube clip from years before, and despite these blips most parties can shrug them off.
"A top cop who's a chronic speeder. Another candidate who was charged with drunk driving. Yet another one who sent out a hateful e-mail comparing the gay "lifestyle" to "gambling, abortion, adultery and pornography." Another who cancelled a "free-beer" rally to comply with election laws". This was the lead in an article published in the Province newspaper this morning

At least some people are making money off the unemployed. This story details how ServiceCanada has spent $5 million in overtime just to process EI claims.

Just what is upsetting people in Colborne? Local news outlets report two dead people in separate incidents. One guy fished out of Little Lake and another one in an apartment building downtown. If it wasn't such a bad joke I'd talk about something being in the water!

Thank you for providing the Danish research video about the destruction of the "three" towers.
It is very interesting information. I hope there is some follow up, but I doubt it, because the lack of questioning so far would lead to even more questions about the real reasons and relevance for invading Afghanistan and Iraq.

An article in The Independent reports why the American people do not have to make a choice between torture and terror. Read it here.

The story is told in the book How to Break a Terrorist: The US interrogators who used brains, not brutality, to take down the deadliest man in Iraq, by Matthew Alexander and John R Bruning (The Free Press).

I just love it when USAmericans shine the light on their dark places. They have been doing throughout all their history. From the Pentagon Papers, to Gulf of Tonkin, Watergate, My Lai, Iran-Contra.

If only the vast majority of countries in the world today emulated this USAmerican freedom to expose itself, criticize itself, redeem itself. No wonder USAmerica is worthy of being a great country and a leader in the world. May it continue to be so for a long time.

For those who feel it is OK to make denigrating remarks about old white guys, check out this story in which the Labour Party rejected a contender for councillor who is too "white and Jewish" to be selected.
