Will the real Saddam Hussein step forward?

Now that one of Saddam Hussein’s many look a likes have been executed, I wonder what happened to the real Saddam Hussein. The way this copy was executed so quickly makes me question why they were in such a hurry. For those who ask how can I say this was one of Saddam Hussein’s look a likes, you are welcome to search the Internet for clues, but here is a link to one article that points to that direction:

http://www.signs-of-the-times.org/signs/editorials/signs20061106_TheCaptureTrialandConvictionofSaddamHusseinAnotherUSIntelligenceFarce.php

So here is an example of a leader that was found guilty in a trail for killing 148 men and boys from the Shia Muslim town of Dujail. The reason for this killing was supposedly that they were part of an opposition group that tried to assassinate Saddam Hussein in 1982. Pity he did not call them terrorists because if he called it the war on terror, he would have not been executed for it. If you call your killing actions; war on terror, then you may kill as many people you want, by any means possible and get away with it. Just look at George Bush getting away with his hunger for killing innocent people.

He was even allowed recently by the senate to send more troops to Iraq. Do we see people like him facing charges for killing innocent people? No? Just because it is called “war on terror” he has free reign to use any means he feel fit to utilize to obtain whatever results he was told to obtain. Leaders like him can hold people for an indefinite time in custody, torture them, even kill them; as long as it’s called war on terror it is fine.

If this is allowed to continue while the agencies that are suppose to monitor and stop these illegal actions like the United Nations remain silent; no one will be safe on this planet. We have seen many examples where innocent men, women and children die by deliberate military attacks from Israel on Palestine and Lebanon, but they call it war on terror so they are safe. We have seen the USA drop bombs on Afghanistan and almost totally destroy Iraq, killing thousands of women and children, but they are immune to prosecution because they called it war on terror.
So it looks like the only mistake Saddam Hussein made was that he did not use the words; fighting war on terror. And for him not using those words, he was then labeled a terrorist himself. But maybe he was following orders and acted exactly the way he should have anyway. For following those orders, setting the stage for US invasion, he was given protection and one of his many look a likes was executed in his place.

What wrong with our Star?

Has anyone noticed the recent solar flares on the Sun? This happened during solar minimum, something that happens every 11 years when the magnetic field on the sun changes around. It goes through phases of 11 years of high sunspot activity and 11 years of low sunspot activity. This has been monitored and measured by our ancient friends in other parts of the world for thousands of years. There were signs that the Mayans and the Chinese measured the level and number of sun spots all the time.

Our “advanced” technological community doesn’t understand the reason for them to measure these differences. Today we need to know this because mayor sunspot eruptions can cause disruptions in our telecommunications and also our electrical power grids. It has been known to destroy satellites and can be very dangerous for astronauts, should they be outside their spacecraft during a mayor solar eruption.

So why is this happening now and why don’t you read about it on the mayor news networks? It is unusual for the sun to erupt with an X6 solar flare (6th December 2006) during the solar minimum? We were lucky; this flare was directed away from Earth. What is even rarer is for the same sunspot (sunspot number 930) looking like it might die, erupted in an X3 solar flare (13th December 2006), directed towards Earth.

In 2003 the most powerful solar flare ever recorded was measured at an incredible X28! In fact the scientists don’t exactly know how strong that explosion was, it was only an estimation because their equipment failed from the noise and distortion caused by this event. The questions remains, what does these huge flares mean at this time? Also, does large eruptions like these have any effect on humans?

Israel now in charge of the UN

Now Israel may decide if they “may” authorize a visit to their country by the United Nations or not. Did Saddam Hussein block any UN investigators to his country when the “Intelligence Agencies” said he had weapons of mass destruction? No, Saddam Hussein allowed UN access to all the areas of his country. The UN inspectors were just to slow for the USA; they had to invade the country at all costs.

Now the UN led by Nobel Peace laureate, Desmond Tutu was refused entry to investigate the massacre of 19 people (at least 14 were women and children). Israel says it does not see the role of the UN mission, that it has already “acknowledged” its mistake. So if you are friends with the likes of the USA and UK, you can make “mistakes” like these, killing innocent people and not being held responsible? As long as you “acknowledge” your mistake, you won’t be called a terrorist, dictator or threat to world peace?

The UN kept silent when the USA invaded Iraq, killing thousands of civilians in the process. The UN kept silent when the USA invaded Afghanistan, killing thousands of civilians. Now the UN is helpless in investigating matters like these? Will no one hold politicians responsible for their decisions and actions? If the UN are not allowed to ask and investigate these questions, who will?

When is it fine to make “mistakes” like these? Is it right to destroy a home with women and children using artillery fire because the “intelligence” pointed to someone close by as a suspected terrorist? Where will the line be drawn? The USA destroyed a whole country for that reason, so it seems that politicians may kill as many people they like as long as they use the words, fight terrorism or “acknowledge” a mistake afterwards. This world has become a far more dangerous place to live than in the old cold war days!

Dubai Company takes control over Cape Town’s Port

Can this be true? The same company that recently took over the operations of the New York port; DP World is closely tied to the company that bought the V&A Waterfront for R70bn. The controversy of the NY harbor deal came about shortly after the 911 event that changed the world’s history forever. The US Congress tried to block the deal but President Bush threatened to veto the legislation should the deal be blocked by Congress.

DP World operates in over 19 major terminals around the world. These include ports in the following counties; Venezuela, Dominican Republic, Argentina, Canada, Australia, Hong Kong, China, India, Saudi Arabia, Djibouti, Germany, Romania and UAE with new developments in South Korea, Turkey, Peru and Vietnam. Now South Africa can be un-officially added to this list.

The company that bought the V&A Waterfront; Nakheel Hotels and Resorts’ sister company is DP World, so they are both owned by the same people, mostly the Dubai government. Is this a way to gain control over the port of Cape Town?

The West is King

Who made the West king on this world? Why may the West decide who are the good and who are the bad? I ask this question after reading a news article titled; “Follow God or vanish”, apparently a quote given by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad saying “They are angry with our nation. But we tell them 'so be it and die from this anger'. Rest assured that if you do not respond to the divine call, you will die soon and vanish from the face of the earth," http://www.news24.com/News24/World/News/0,9294,2-10-1462_2041017,00.html

Look, these are some scary words from a leader in a world already divided and fragmented between several divisions, but what I find surprising is somewhere further in the article, it says the following: “A defiant Iran has refused to suspend its uranium enrichment work, a process that the West fears could be extended to make nuclear weapons.” Who is the West this article’s referring to? Could this be USA or UK and does Israel fall part of the West? These are the nations that in the last 40 years have invaded more nations, used more mass military operations and killed more innocent victims than any other country! But the West is worried about Iran?

Who then speak for the innocent people of Iraq, Palestine and Lebanon (to name a few recent events) if the West don’t protect them? Who speaks against these aggressor nations? The only nation to have used nuclear weapons on innocent civilians was the USA, yet they may tell others that they fear Iran might build nuclear weapons!

The article further says the following: “the UN security council is agreed there will be sanctions on Iran”. If the UN Security Council plans to impose sanctions on Iran, why not those that have nuclear weapons already? Those aggressor nations that without UN sanction invaded other countries, killing thousands of civilians; women and kids with long range missiles and massive bombs dropped from high altitude planes. If I read this article it implies that the West are the good guys and everyone else the bad. Does this world’s moral fate lie with the West?

If this is the case, then we are in big trouble. How can the USA say who the good Nations are if they are allowed to invade other countries, destroy infrastructure and kill innocent civilians? If the UN sanctioned these killings, then the UN does not represented the rest of the world in equal measure. If the UN were the true “United Nations”, the true representation of the whole world, then this will not have been allowed. Nor would Israel have been allowed to occupy someone else’s land and allowed to invade its neighbors, killing innocent people in Lebanon and Palestine.

Who made the West king? By reading this article I have to say it sounds like the media has made the West king. Most, if not all news articles like these originate from the West. The same media that said Iraq can strike within 24 hours. The same media that said Iraq has weapons of mass destruction. The same media that were imbedded with the USA troops during the Iraq invasion. It looks like the West and main stream media are the one and the same.
