The US 'Coalition of the Killing' as inhuman avengers:
they have nor show any decency, or civilization!

FPF - March 22, 2006 - Nor has any of the people anywhere in the world any decency left who supports this. The PNAC Group* at the origin of all misery, and their lying and faking 'front men' - war criminals like Tony Blair, Berlusconi(It), Howard (Aus) and JP Balkenende - the 'Christian' PM fronting for the 'management', with his killing clique in Holland - all of those criminals must be stopped in any way and as soon as is possible.

They are a deadly danger to all mankind and must be locked up. Like all criminals in the propaganda media machine - the propagandists - without whom the genocides never ever would have been possible. They are the murderous media menace, having cowardly sold their soul to become the malevolent 'Master's Voices'.

I've lived and worked for ten years in the area, and can guarantee that this never - not in centuries - will ever be forgiven nor forgotten. Anything or anybody connected to those killing avengers will be an outcast to the rest of us in the humane world. And killed if possible in the areas where there war crimes took place, because they deserve it.

For every child, woman or man killed by the Coalition of the Killing, there will be at least fifty people wanting revenge for the deadly injustice. - And they'll get it. Mark my words. - HR

US troops investigated over Iraqi massacres

By Patrick Cockburn in Arbil - Published in The Independent - 22 March 2006

The US military is investigating two incidents in which American soldiers killed at least 26 Iraqi civilians and then claimed that they were either guerrillas or had died in cross fire.

The growing evidence of retaliatory killings of unarmed Iraqi families, often including children, by US soldiers seemingly bent on punishing Iraqis after an attack, will spark comparisons with the massacre of Vietnamese villagers at My Lai in 1968.

US troops have been notorious among Iraqis for their willingness to shoot any Iraqi they see in the aftermath of an insurgent attack. But it is only now that convincing and detailed information is becoming available about the killings.
In the most recent incident, in the town of Ishaqi north of Baghdad last week, Iraqi police said that US troops had shot 11 people, including five children, in their home.

US SOLDIERS WENT ON A RAMPAGE

The local police chief, Colonel Farouq Hussein, said that all the dead had been shot in the head, according to autopsies. "It's a clear and perfect crime," he said. In an incident in the town of Haditha in western Iraq on 19 November last year, US soldiers went on a rampage in a village after a bomb attack and killed at least 15 civilians, according to witnesses and local officials cited by Time magazine in an investigation.

The US military first claimed a roadside bomb had killed a US Marine, Miguel Tarrazas, along with 15 Iraqi civilians caught in the blast. Later, a military statement said "gunmen attacked the convoy with small-arms fire" and in returning fire the Marines killed eight insurgents.

But after Time presented the US military with what Iraqis said had happened, an official investigation found that 15 of the civilians had been deliberately killed by US soldiers.

The bomb attack on the US Humvee took place at 7.15am. Eman Waleed, a nine-year-old child, lived in a house 150 yards from the explosion. "We heard a big noise that woke us all up," she recalled later. "Then we did what we always do when there's an explosion: my father goes in to his room with the Koran and prays the family will be spared harm."

The Marines claim they heard shots coming from the direction of Waleed's house. They burst in to the house and Eman heard shots from her father's room. They then entered the living room, where the rest of the family was gathered. She said: "I couldn't see their faces very well - only their guns sticking in to the doorway. I watched them shoot my grandfather, first in the chest and then in the head. Then they killed my granny."

TRIED TO PROTECT THE TWO CHILDREN WITH THEIR BODIES

The US soldiers started shooting in to the corner of the room where Eman and her eight-year-old brother, Abdul Rahman, were cowering. The other adults in the room tried to protect the two children with their bodies and were all shot dead. Eman and her brother were both wounded.

THE AMERICANS DID IT

"We were lying there, bleeding and it hurt so much. Afterwards some Iraqi soldiers came. They carried us in their arms. I was crying, shouting, 'why did you do this to our family?' And one Iraqi soldier tells me, 'we didn't do it. The Americans did it'."

The Marines' explanation is that they heard the sound of a Kalashnikov being readied to shoot and had then fired their weapons. The Marines say they were fired at from a second house, where they broke down a door, threw in a grenade and opened fire. The eight who died in the second house included the owner, his wife, the owner's sister, a two-year-old son and three young daughters.

In a third house the Marines searched four young men were shot dead. A military investigation decided these were insurgent fighters, along with four others killed in the stree
t.
The Marines later delivered 24 bodies to a hospital in Haditha, claiming they had been killed by shrapnel from a bomb. Dr Wahid, the director of the hospital, said: "It was obvious to us there were no organs slashed by shrapnel. The bullet wounds were very apparent. Most of the victims were shot in the head and chest - from close range."

AN US MILITARY INVESTIGATION DECIDED THE DEATHS WERE "COLLATERAL DAMAGE".

RELATIVES WERE PAID $2,500 (£1,400) FOR EACH OF THE DEAD.

They Kill Us For Sport - Depleted Uranium In India, Spreading Worldwide
They Kill Us For Sport - Depleted Uranium In India, Spreading Worldwide
http://www.rense.com/general70/deple.htm

The nuclear Holocaust: This is the way the world ends:

Not with a bang but your whimper...

FPF: The nuclear war with it's radioactive radiation Holocaust of the whole world by the US - with deadly fall-out from the use of depleted uranium - goes on. Logically the radioactive fall-out reaching Alderston in England has poisoned many other countries too. Countries where all collaborators and cowards - including all scientists - shut up and let the people get cancer and die.* - Url.: http://tinyurl.com/q8nnk

Some of you may some time ago have seen the movie 'On the Beach' based on the book by Nevil Shute, and will remember the ending: ''The first important film treatment of nuclear holocaust, it premiered all around the world just thirteen years ago last November. I sat through it to the bitter end—everyone dead and a banner flying across the screen: THERE'S STILL TIME, BROTHER.* - Alas: Time's up! Reason: the group behind most wars.*

Depleted Uranium In India, Spreading Worldwide

The following was sent to me by one of the email list members and the author of the article below granted me (and you) permission to spread this far and wide. They are working in India to document the extent of DU pollution that has come out of Afghanistan and fallen upon the people of India. They are working along the same lines we are here in the United States to first prove it, and then put a stop to it and get medical care for the abandoned and neglected.

This recent - Urgent Deal - between Bush and India might be a Pre-emptive Strike to shut down the efforts in India to prove that DU has bit them in the butt, too.

We are still waiting to see if any of the nations in Europe wake up to the fact that they got "peppered" with DU too, since the Aldermaston DU would have to have come across them to have made it to the UK.

This is the article from India and then I'll return at the end with comments and additional information. It is interesting to see how people of other nations view the United States and the Bush-Cheney cabal's use of DU weapons. - Begin article:

They Kill Us For Sport - By Arun Shrivastava CMC

Depleted uranium is a deadly toy in the hands of the ruling bloodlines. A particle of DU ingested or inhaled can cause one or more of the 90+ seriously debilitating diseases, fatal or temporarily non-fatal.[1] [see list of 91 diseases, Annex 1] The half life of DU is 4.5 billion years, and it can destroy living things and the environment; most importantly it can destroy perfectly healthy lives. [2]

Depleted uranium has been used in at least the last four wars by the United States and its allies: Gulf War 1, Bosnia and Kosovo in the Balkans, Afghanistan and Gulf War 2. The last two of the four wars, all illegal, took place in 2001 (Afghanistan) and 2003 (Iraq). Effects of the contamination can manifest from within a few hours to five years.

Evidences clearly indicate that depleted uranium is blowing in the wind all over the world. [3] Its effects on health are showing up in distant lands. Earlier, gulf war veterans and local civilians were affected; now, of all the places, the US is showing six-fold increase in just lung cancer cases.[4]

THE EMERGING RATIO

The population of the USA was 298, 298,906 on March 14, 2006, say 298 million.[5] The recorded 172,000 lung cancer cases for January and February 2006 equates to 34 cases per 10,000 persons-men, women and children- up from the previously normal trend line of 5.8 per 10,000 persons per annum, implying that additional 28.2 cases per 10,000 persons have been added and recorded in a short time. It certainly can't be due to more Americans smoking cigarettes and certainly not due to "other unexplained factors" such as lifestyle changes, which do change but over decades, not a few years. The most plausible one is that the air we breathe is contaminated with depleted uranium and it is killing healthy people all over the world.

If the population of the United States of America shows such an explosive growth of lung cancer what does it imply for the rest of the world? The world population on the same day and time was 6,503,376,192. Assuming the same ratio as that of the United States, i.e. additional 28.2 cases per 10,000 persons, the world would see, or is probably already facing, an additional 18.34 million cases of untreatable cancer per year, or 1.52 million cases per month. Do they know it?

TOBACCO AND LUNG CANCER

"In the 20th century, approximately 100 million people died world-wide from tobacco-associated diseases (cancer, chronic lung disease, cardiovascular disease and stroke)," says a WHO report. [6] This means about one million deaths per year, although it is understandable that there were fewer cases early on in the 20th century as compared to later when the numbers reached nearly 1.5 million. In 2001, there were 1.5 million lung cancer deaths worldwide, or 125,000 per month.[7]

Now, if the US data shows 172,000 new cases in January-February 2006, an average of 86,000 cases per month, something terrible has happened. Nuclear radiation induced cancers are peculiar: with right facility and correct testing protocol, the murderers can't hide. With care, all the 91radiation induced illnesses, identified by Leuren, can be traced to depleted radiation poisoning.

THE MAP SAYS SOMETHING - (Picture in article at Url.: http://tinyurl.com/n7wkz)

The worst contamination would of course occur at and around the theatres of war, but region within 1000 mile radius would face serious depleted uranium contamination. [1]

1000-mile radius means a total area of 3.14 million square mile. The two circles in the map represent an area of 6.28 million square miles and, deducting say 20% for the overlapping area, the net affected area is just over 5 million square mile. The total land area of earth is about 57.3 million square mile, which implies that roughly 8% of total land area of the earth is now severely contaminated. And I am not including Bosnia and Kosovo theatres of war, which has seriously affected the Balkans as well as the NATO troops.[8]

(Karl W B Schwarz comment: I wonder if the people of Israel are aware that the desired policy of their government to have the US attacking Arab nations has polluted their nation with DU? Also, you can draw the same such circles around US target ranges, test ranges and military bases where US citizens have been exposed. Additionally, the air flow from Iraq to the UK would have taken the DU contamination across much of Europe. -KS)

Referring to the map, with Afghanistan's capital Kabul as the centre, depleted uranium affected region includes Pakistan, entire northwest India, parts of Nepal, parts of China, major regions of Central Asian Republics, Iran, and the Gulf countries, including Dubai and Abu Dhabi, two major financial and trading centres. Taking Baghdad as the centre, the regions affected includes the entire West Asia, parts of Egypt, parts of Greece, Cyprus, regions around the Caspian Sea and islands in the eastern Mediterranean.

It should be noted that Iran and some littoral states of Caspian Sea have been hit twice (see the overlapping area of the two circles) within two years: in 2001 and again in 2003. Thus the severest effect would be felt in Iran, a few gulf countries, and a few Central Asian states.

POPULATION AFFECTED

The total estimated population within the two circles was about 857 million (See Table) in July 2005. If the US is showing a sharp six-fold rise in incidence of lung cancer alone, what will be the fate of these 857 million+ people in the core zones? Washington is exactly 6193.94 miles from radioactive Baghdad; and Kabul is just a bit further, about 6922.93 miles away, also highly radioactive.[9] The capitals of 19 countries are within 1000 mile radius and include New Delhi (621 miles), Islamabad (232), Bishkek (651), Beirut (515), Cairo (806), Ankara (785), Jerusalem (546), Damascus (468), Kuwait City (347), Nikosia (643), Teheran (429), Abu Dabi (856), Aman (503), Riyadh (615), Ashqabat (645) and so on. And Americans are catching lung cancer by the thousands?

Countries like India, Pakistan, Nepal, Afghanistan, Iraq, and some Central Asian States do not even have well established, dependable cancer screening facilities, let alone determining whether the illness is due to depleted uranium contamination or careless handling of toxic pesticides in the farms.

Bush Didn't Bungle Iraq, You Fools
We all are supposed to 'endure' this cruel and many times deadly US-made 'freedom'; even knowing that the expression 'to endure' stands for: 'to suffer, undergo or be subjected to'. How right the definition is: just look at Iraq after three years of enduring US freedom.

Bush Didn't Bungle Iraq, You Fools - Greg Palast, with a comment.

'ENDURING FREEDOM' MEANS TO SUFFER, UNDERGO OR BE SUBJECTED TO IT

THERE IS NO 'CONSPIRACY' - IT'S ONLY FACTS WE DON'T HAVE YET...

FPF - March 21st 2006 - We - the livestock of the global 'Animal Farm' - just need to look around us. Because, from a profit point of view, that's how the Shylocks of this world always have done it: create a scarcity and: up the prices go! If you don't build enough houses, you keep the prices and loans high. If you artificially keep a bigger than normal 'unemployment rate', the wages will be kept low, sliding to a minimum level, as is shown at present again in the PNAC planned labor laws for the people in all countries of the European Union.

Something millions of people in France (74%) are protesting against now, with some of the big and infiltrated so called 'unions' for their 'masters' trying to stop a general strike coming Thursday, to further control their damage. - [http://tinyurl.com/ppxuk]

And like this PNAC plan too, as described below by Greg Palast: if you control the oil, and most certainly via OPEC - you decide the price. In case you feel like an extra couple of $billions or so in profit, you just pull one of the usual tricks and for instance in a 'false flag' operation block the street of Hormuz, all the while - via all own propaganda channels - blaming 'Arab terrorists' or some of the CIA paid and faked 'groups of al Quaida' for it.

Upping the price of crude per barrel to a $100 or more: whatever 'The Group' feels like, and what they think we creatures on our 'Animal Farm' can endure. For those who remember: 'The Seven Sisters' have always done this - Url.: http://tinyurl.com/f47gq

PNAC: 'PROJECT FOR A NEFARIOUS AMERICAN CENTURY'

That's why the US/PNAC's global war of terror is called "Enduring Freedom": we all are supposed to 'endure' this cruel and many times deadly 'freedom', knowing that the expression 'to endure' stands for: to suffer, undergo or be subjected to. How right the definition is: just look at Iraq.* Growing millions are understanding and protesting against the perilous PNAC policy, their 'Project for a Nefarious American Century' and 'The Group' malignantly managing the global 'Animal Farm'. Even Martin Luther in the 15th century saw this. - Url.: http://tinyurl.com/hiv9

It's a pleasure forwarding Greg Palast: he's a journalist with a hammer, knowing who, what, why - and where the nails are. And then, like in this article, he hits the nails on the head: "Bush Didn't Bungle Iraq, You Fools: Get off it. All the carping, belly-aching and complaining about George Bush's incompetence in Iraq, from both the Left and now the Right, is just dead wrong.

On the third anniversary of the tanks rolling over Iraq's border, most of the 59 million Homer Simpsons who voted for Bush are beginning to doubt if his mission was accomplished.

But don't kid yourself - Bush and his co-conspirator, Dick Cheney, accomplished exactly what they set out to do. In case you've forgotten what their real mission was, let me remind you of White House spokesman Ari Fleisher's original announcement, three years ago, launching of what he called:

"Operation
Iraqi
Liberation."

O.I.L. How droll of them, how cute. Then, Karl Rove made the giggling boys in the White House change it to "OIF" -- Operation Iraqi Freedom. But the 101st Airborne wasn't sent to Basra to get its hands on Iraq's OIF.

"It's about oil," Robert Ebel told me. Who is Ebel? Formerly the CIA's top oil analyst, he was sent by the Pentagon, about a month before the invasion, to a secret confab in London with Saddam's former oil minister to finalize the plans for "liberating" Iraq's oil industry. In London, Bush's emissary Ebel also instructed Ibrahim Bahr al-Ulum, the man the Pentagon would choose as post-OIF oil minister for Iraq, on the correct method of disposing Iraq's crude.

And what did the USA want Iraq to do with Iraq's oil? The answer will surprise many of you: and it is uglier, more twisted, devilish and devious than anything imagined by the most conspiracy-addicted blogger. The answer can be found in a 323-page plan for Iraq's oil secretly drafted by the State Department. Our team got a hold of a copy; how, doesn't matter. The key thing is what's inside this thick Bush diktat: a directive to Iraqis to maintain a state oil company that will "enhance its relationship with OPEC."

ENHANCE ITS RELATIONSHIP WITH OPEC???

How strange: the government of the United States ordering Iraq to support the very OPEC oil cartel which is strangling our nation with outrageously high prices for crude.

Specifically, the system ordered up by the Bush cabal would keep a lid on Iraq's oil production -- limiting Iraq's oil pumping to the tight quota set by Saudi Arabia and the OPEC cartel.

THERE YOU HAVE IT. YES, BUSH WENT IN FOR THE OIL -- NOT TO GET MORE OF IRAQ'S OIL, BUT TO PREVENT IRAQ PRODUCING TOO MUCH OF IT.

You must keep in mind who paid for George's ranch and Dick's bunker: Big Oil. And Big Oil -- and their buck-buddies, the Saudis -- don't make money from pumping more oil, but from pumping LESS of it. The lower the supply, the higher the price.

It's Economics 101. The oil industry is run by a cartel, OPEC, and what economists call an "oligopoly" -- a tiny handful of operators who make more money when there's less oil, not more of it. So, every time the "insurgents" blow up a pipeline in Basra, every time Mad Mahmoud in Tehran threatens to cut supply, the price of oil leaps. And Dick and George just LOVE it.

Dick and George didn't want more oil from Iraq, they wanted less. I know some of you, no matter what I write, insist that our President and his Veep are on the hunt for more crude so you can cheaply fill your family Hummer; that somehow, these two oil-patch babies are concerned that the price of gas in the USA is bumping up to $3 a gallon.

IT'S BEEN A GOOD WAR FOR BIG OIL

No so, gentle souls. Three bucks a gallon in the States (and a quid a litre in Britain) means colossal profits for Big Oil, and that makes Dick's ticker go pitty-pat with joy. The top oily-gopolists, the five largest oil companies, pulled in $113 billion in profit in 2005 -- compared to a piddly $34 billion in 2002 before Operation Iraqi Liberation. In other words, it's been a good war for Big Oil.

As per Plan Bush, Bahr Al-Ulum became Iraq's occupation oil minister; the conquered nation "enhanced its relationship with OPEC;" and the price of oil, from Clinton peace-time to Bush war-time, shot up 317%.

In other words, on the third anniversary of invasion, we can say the attack and occupation is, indeed, a Mission Accomplished.

However, it wasn't America's mission, nor the Iraqis'.

It was an Mission Accomplished for OPEC and Big Oil.

Why Paris is burning
When the explanation was given that: "When one easily fires working people, it's resulting in more jobs." - all human beings with common sense first shook their heads in disbelief, and now shake their fists at those French ministerial crooks advocating this nefarious nonsense.

EASY HIRED, EASY FIRED? WHO PROFITS FROM NIGHT-SHIFT WORK FOR 15 YEAR OLDS?

by Henk Ruyssenaars

FPF - France - March 19th - 2006 - Millions (74%) of the French people fight the indecent labor laws and have after yesterday's huge demonstrations given the French 'government' an ultimatum. Either de Villepin's inhuman law goes, or the French government is in deep trouble; starting with a country-wide general strike. It's not only in Paris or at the Sorbonne University it's burning, as we are falsely shown on the selected TV-'news': millions of parents, workers and at least 41 universities and over two hundred cities in France are affected. And reacted.

Because - contrary to what the employer's mainstream media* globally report - this is about much more. It's not only back to the last century in Europe with 14 year olds working for free as 'apprentices', and again making it the law that 15 year olds can work night shifts. The main plan within the EU is to reduce - through law and by opening the borders for other low paid workers - all wages to a very low level, resulting in bigger profits for the EU 'managers'. To most observers the growing protests reflect a much broader discontent of the people with their government and the totalitarian direction they are forced in.

EASY HIRED, EASY FIRED

Front man, and because it didn't work yet, now 'fall guy' for the plan - is monsieur de Villepin, who was appointed PM by Chirac, and who has never held an elected office. - [BBC - Url.: http://tinyurl.com/rz8nc] - Representing the EU managers is the by Blair and his 'advisers' in London appointed, not elected by the people, EU boss Peter Mandelson, after he fell from grace when in England a 'house loan' by his friends was uncovered. - [http://tinyurl.com/guej9]

People revolt against this umbilical cord to the likewise wage lowering Dutch neocon Bolkestein's Directives*, trying to annul a model that has assisted in providing for nearly 60 years a relative peace and stability across some countries of the European continent.

''The Bolkestein (or services) Directive* epitomises this on-going attack by global capitalism on the long fought for conditions of labor across Europe and indeed the globe, it is the public face of a transnational race to the bottom being waged on workers and citizens alike by a growing right wing rump of liberalising, privatising and deregulating evangelists that have found their way onto the centre stage of European politics.

The Bolkestein Directive proposes to deregulate and liberalise services across Europe, all services except those already subjected to previous acts of deregulation. Health, Education and social welfare services, both public and private as well as local government services, all come under the Directive's provisions that demand the removal of any restriction to the opening up of the market to the cheapest bidder." [end quote] - [http://tinyurl.com/jdgmz]

As many times before, people are very critical of the role of the trade unions as a student explained: “In Jussieu, we’ve been organised for three weeks now, and we’ve closed the university down, but the trade unions have shown little interest. They’ve expressed their support and then waited for us - if we hadn’t got going, the trade unions would have done nothing.” - The infiltration and loss of power within the unions is clearly shown in many EU countries where the workers lost valid weapons. However: the French mixture of mass demonstrations and Molotov cocktails seems to work.

POLITICIANS: IN MY OPINION, THEY ARE ALL MORE OR LESS THE SAME

As she said in a further comment: "de Villepin is making it a personal issue. If he resigns, that might solve the problem, but only in the very short term, because the person who replaces him won’t be any better. I’m talking about politicians in general today. In my opinion, they are all more or less the same.”- [http://tinyurl.com/r8mp6]

The French group behind de Villepin, is headed by the neocon minister for the Interior, police and secret services, Nicolas Sarkozy, who, like Mr. de Villepin, hopes to run for president next year - something which de Villepin now can forget. So Sarkozy at a televized press conference held up a damaged police helmet for the cameras and said: "Those who do this are not demonstrators, they're thugs." But the people know and react against the real thugs which are to be found at the source of the inhuman laws for the labor force, the Villepin-law which must make lower salaries and therefore higher profits in the whole of the European Union possible.

FIRST THEY'LL TRY THE GUILLOTINE OF THE NATIONAL STRIKE

In France, and it's not only the 'students' or 'youngsters' as we're shown, the people know reality and are not accepting the worsening EU fraud.* The people fight for their rights as human beings. And against the devaluation of what once were fairly democratic societies. Knowing 'the other side' has all the weaponry - paid for by extorted tax money - some of the people in desperation will use violence. But first they'll try the guillotine of the national strike.

The dumbing down and those strange laws are mostly and strongly suggested by the man looked upon as 'the manager of the European Union': mr. Peter Mandelsohn.* - Who was named to be the 'Europe director'. He was appointed; not elected by the EU. In France, where many people are aware of this and still know what Justice is, they are marching and fighting for everybody who knows that 'when equals among equals go on the wrong track, the guillotine should be awaiting them.' The crisis is a fact - like the resistance, in French called 'maquis' after a type of foliage in Corsica, behind which resistance fighters on the island used to hide.

NEVER DRINK FROM A SOURCE YOU DON'T KNOW

Day and night now TV, radio sets and papers - wherever you are on this globe in reach of their propaganda channels - will be quoting 'International News Agencies" - propaganda sewers which they themselves own. You'll wake up and at breakfast be told that - contrary to the facts - 'actually very little happened in France', otherwise there's a danger that you might start thinking.

That's why 'The Group' runs all of the international 'news agencies' and 'adjusts' [falsifies] everything as they wish. Like with the start of the illegal war in Iraq the facts are adjusted to the policy of war. In this case including the figures of people taking part in protest marches and especially omitting, spiking and 'killing' every form of protest to their inhuman abberrations.*

THERE ARE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE PROTESTING WORLDWIDE, BUT IN THE PNAC'S 'MESSMEDIA' (PUN INTENDED) THOSE PEOPLE ARE NEVER HEARD, SEEN NOR READ ABOUT.

The people demonstrating in France had many placards reading: Send the Bourgeoisie to the Gulag* - meaning those creatures illogically insisting that the law will actually stimulate job creation by encouraging employers to fire people. In other countries - like EU member and PNAC colony The Netherlands - all shopping centers, offices and/or factories show 'Dutch gold' Bolkestein's results: when reaching eighteen years of age, many youngsters - even those having the simplest of manual jobs - are fired and replaced by a 14 year old 'apprentice' which is 'cheaper'.

And the more unemployed people there are - willing to take any job - the lower the wages get.

And of course, 15 year olds working night shifts are cheap...

International Criminal Court: murder is murder, or?
Att.: mr. Richard Dicker - Email: dickerr@hrw.org - International Justice Program Director,Human Rights Watch. / CC: People & organisations in the ICC press release + others.


Conc.: The ICC has unsealed an arrest warrant for the Democratic Republic of Congo as well as confirmed the arrest and transfer of Thomas Lubanga Dyilo.


Dear mr. Dicker,

MAY I WONDER IF YOU CAN HELP ME SORT THIS OUT?

FPF/The Netherlands - March 18, 2006 - Today we got a press release from the ICC with the following text about the arrival of mr. Thomas Lubanga. Among other crimes concerning the charges against mr. Lubanga, the ICC press release states that he was 'forcing young children to participate in warfare'. It says: "This is a serious crime, but the ICC prosecutor must also press additional charges against militia leaders for massacres, torture and rape." [end quote ICC]

I know that Chief Prosecutor Moreno Ocampo can bring charges only if individual countries are unable or unwilling to prosecute war crimes, genocide or major human rights violations. He can - due to US pressure - also only prosecute crimes committed after July 1, 2002, the official date of the court's inception.

May I bring the following war crime with text and picture material to your attention, a gross murder which is committed after July 1, 2002, and were the killers are known?

And in your appreciated answer maybe you can explain what the ICC is going to do about the case: the deliberately shooting in the head of five small children, killing their parents too, two men and four women.

IF THERE'S ANY JUSTICE LEFT IN THIS WORLD, THE MURDERERS MUST BE BROUGHT TO TRIAL, DON'T YOU AGREE?

For your convenience I've pasted the story below, but to see the picture of the five toddlers which were killed, you can use the 'link' given below.

Looking forward to your answer,

I meanwhile remain,

US raid on home killed 11 family members

By Amer Amery

03/16/06 - TIKRIT, Iraq, March 15 (Reuters) - Eleven members of an Iraqi family were killed in a U.S. raid on Wednesday, police and witnesses said. The U.S. military said two women and a child died during the bid to seize an al Qaeda militant from a house.

SHOT IN THE HEAD

A senior Iraqi police officer said autopsies on the bodies, which included five children, showed each had been shot in the head. Community leaders said they were outraged at the killings and demanded an explanation from the U.S. military.

Television footage showed the bodies in the Tikrit morgue -- five children, two men and four women. Their wounds were not clear though one infant had a gaping head wound.

A freelance photographer later saw them being buried by weeping men in Ishaqi, the town 100 km (60 miles) north of Baghdad where the raid took place.

The U.S. military said in a statement its troops had attacked a house in Ishaqi early on Wednesday to capture a "foreign fighter facilitator for the al Qaeda in Iraq network".

"Troops were engaged by enemy fire as they approached the building," spokesman Major Tim Keefe said. "Coalition Forces returned fire utilising both air and ground assets.

"There was one enemy killed. Two women and one child were also killed in the firefight. The building ... (was) destroyed."

Keefe said the al Qaeda suspect had been captured and was being questioned.

RUBBLE

Major Ali Ahmed of the Ishaqi police said U.S. forces had landed on the roof of the house in the early hours and shot the 11 occupants, including the five children.

"After they left the house they blew it up," he said.

Another policeman, Colonel Farouq Hussein, said autopsies had been carried out at Tikrit hospital and found "all the victims had gunshot wounds to the head".

The bodies, their hands bound, had been dumped in one room before the house was destroyed, Hussein said. Police had found spent American-issue cartridges in the rubble.

"It's a clear and perfect crime without any doubt," he said.

Police in Salahaddin province, a heartland of the Sunni Arab insurgency and the home region of Saddam Hussein, have frequently criticised U.S. military tactics in the area.

Police officers said the U.S. military had asked for a meeting with local tribal leaders. The Joint Co-ordination Centre in Tikrit which coordinates between U.S. and Iraqi security forces said later the meeting would happen on Friday.

Ishaqi's town administrator, Rasheed Shather, said the town was shocked: "Everyone went to the funeral. We want the Americans to give us an explanation for this horrible crime."

ALL LOOKED UNDER THE AGE OF FIVE

Photographs of the funeral showed men crying as five children, who all looked under the age of five, were wrapped in blankets and then lined up in a row. One man who described himself as a relative said one was just seven months old.

"They killed these innocent children. Are these considered terrorists? Is a seven-month-old child a terrorist?" he said angrily, speaking close to the remains of the house.

LOCAL TEACHER FAEQ NSAEF WAS ALSO OUTRAGED:"AN ENTIRE FAMILY WAS KILLED. IT'S A BARBARIAN ACT."

In January a U.S. air strike on a house in Baiji, further north, killed several members of a family. In December U.S. fighter jets dropped two 500-pound bombs on a village, also in the region, killing 10 people. The U.S. military said the people targeted had been suspected of planting roadside bombs.

US Dep't of Defense officials lie about adverse health effects of DU
FPF-fwd.: Dr. Doug Rokke, Ph.D. - Former Director, U.S. Army Depleted Uranium project is the famous DU expert and it's victim too - Url.: http://tinyurl.com/puwkd

US Dep't of Defense officials lie about adverse health effects of DU

This sheet on depleted uranium is full of misinformation and omits all references to the DU team reports, the DU project, and simply lies about our actual adverse health effects from uranium weapons exposures.

Many of us who are enrolled in the VA DU MEDICAL PROGRAM HAVE SERIOUS DU RELATED- DIAGNOSED MEDICAL PROBLEMS.

HOWEVER, WE HAVE BEEN ABANDONED

VA physicians have only tested a few hundred individuals (Gulf War Review volume 13, #1, page 12; www.va.gov) out of thousands who were supposed to received testing and medical care as required by numerous orders and regulations.

The October 1993 DOD DU medical care directive mandated testing within 24 hours of initial exposure using the radio-bioassay not weeks, months, or years later as done now if done at all. Once this test is done an extrapolation from mesured to actual dose must be done too but that has been ignored.

ADVERSE HEALTH EFFECTS OF URANIUM EXPOSURES

I recommend that everyone read- study the Pentagon's own 2002 staff briefing on adverse health effects of uranium exposures. If you have questions just ask me. - [http://www.traprockpeace.org/du_dtic_wakayama_Aug2002.html]

DOD, DA, USAF, USN, USMC, USCG, VA, MOD (British), CND (Canadian), AND (Australian) and NATO officials have for years
continued with delayed and denied care in order to maintain the cover up of the always known serious adverse health and environmental effects and to sustain uranium weapons use while avoiding all liability as specified in the March 1991 Los Alamos memorandum written by LTC Mike Ziehmn (http://www.traprockpeace.org/twomemos.html).

The March 1991 memo written by LTC Greg Lyle was also very clear in citing serious health risks.

I am the Army officer who received these two directives. LTC Lyle is correct. However I refused and still refuse to comply with LTC Ziehmn directive in order to sustain uranium weapons use.

As the former director of the U.S. Army Depleted Uranium Project, the U.S. Army health physicist who cleaned up the mess following Gulf War 1, who recommended the initial medical care, and who is a confirmed DU casualty I am fed up with the continued lies and refusals by our leaders to comply with all known provisions of U.S. Army Regulation 700-48, LTG Peake's April 29, 2004 order mandating medical care for all exposed individuals, and refusals to comply with all of the numerous medical orders over the years.

Dr. Doug Rokke

Major, retired/ disabled, USAR

Simply: Depleted Uranium Situation Requires Action By President Bush and Prime Minister Blair

Dr. Doug Rokke, Ph.D. former Director, U.S. Army Depleted Uranium project

January 6, 2006 - While U.S. and British military personnel continue using illegal uranium munitions- America's and England's own "dirty bombs" U.S. Army, U.S. Department of Energy, and U.S. Department of Defense officials continue to deny that there are any adverse health and environmental effects as a consequence of the manufacture, testing, and/or use of uranium munitions to avoid liability for the willful and illegal dispersal of a radioactive toxic material - depleted uranium. They arrogantly refuse to comply with their own regulations, orders, and directives that require United States Department of Defense officials to provide prompt and effective medical care "all" exposed individuals [Medical Management of Unusual Depleted Uranium Casualties, DOD, Pentagon, 10/14/93, Medical Management of Army personnel Exposed to Depleted Uranium (DU) Headquarters, U.S. Army Medical Command 29 April 2004), and section 2-5 of AR 70-48].

CLEAN UP DISPERSED RADIOACTIVE CONTAMINATION

They also refuse to clean up dispersed radioactive Contamination as required by Army Regulation- AR 700-48: "Management of Equipment Contaminated With Depleted Uranium or Radioactive Commodities" (Headquarters, Department Of The Army, Washington, D.C., September 2002) and U.S. Army Technical Bulletin- TB 9-1300-278: "Guidelines For Safe Response To Handling, Storage, And Transportation Accidents Involving Army Tank Munitions Or Armor Which Contain Depleted Uranium" (Headquarters, Department Of The Army, Washington, D.C., JULY 1996).

Specifically section 2-4 of United States Army Regulation-AR 700-48 dated September 16, 2002 requires that:

(1) "Military personnel "identify, segregate, isolate, secure, and label all RCE" (radiologically contaminated equipment).

(2) "Procedures to minimize the spread of radioactivity will be implemented as soon as possible."

(3) "Radioactive material and waste will not be locally disposed of through burial, submersion, incineration, destruction in
place, or abandonment" and

(4) "All equipment, to include captured or combat RCE, will be surveyed, packaged, retrograded, decontaminated and released IAW Technical Bulletin 9-1300-278, DA PAM 700-48" (Note: Maximum exposure limits are specified in Appendix F).

The previous and current use of uranium weapons, the release of radioactive components in destroyed U.S. and foreign military equipment, and releases of industrial, medical, research facility radioactive materials have resulted in unacceptable exposures. Therefore, decontamination must be completed as required by U.S. Army Regulation 700-48 and should include releases of all radioactive materials resulting from military operations.

CONTAMINATION IS NOT LIMITED

The extent of adverse health and environmental effects of uranium weapons contamination is not limited to combat zones but includes facilities and sites where uranium weapons were manufactured or tested including Vieques; Puerto Rico; Colonie, New York; Concord, MA; Jefferson Proving Grounds, Indiana; and Schofield Barracks, Hawaii.

Therefore medical care must be provided by the United States Department of Defense officials to all individuals affected by the manufacturing, testing, and/or use of uranium munitions. Thorough environmental remediation also must be completed without further delay.

ATTEMPT TO JUSTIFY URANIUM MUNITIONS USE

I am amazed that fourteen years after was asked to clean up the initial DU mess from Gulf War 1 and over ten years since I finished the depleted uranium project that United States Department of Defense officials and others still attempt to justify uranium munitions use while ignoring mandatory requirements.

I am dismayed thatDepartment of Defense and Department of Energy officials and representatives continue personal attacks aimed to silence or discredit those of us who are demanding that medical care be provided to all DU casualties and that environmental remediation is completed in compliance with U.S. Army Regulation 700-48.

WILLFUL DISPERSAL OF TONS

But beyond the ignored mandatory actions the willful dispersal of tons of solid radioactive and chemically toxic waste in the form of uranium munitions is illegal (http://www.traprockpeace.org/karen_parker_du_illegality.pdf) and just does not even pass the common sense test and according to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, DHS, is a dirty bomb.

DHS issued"dirty bomb" responseguidelines, http://www.access.gpo.gov/su_docs/aces/fr-cont.html - on January 3, 2006 for incidents within the United States but ignore DOD use of uranium weapons and existing DOD regulations.

These guidelines specifically state that: "Characteristics of RDD and IND Incidents: A radiological incident is defined as an event or series of events, deliberate or accidental, leading to the release, or potential release, into the environment of radioactive material in sufficient quantity to warrant consideration of protective actions. Use of an RDD or IND is an act of terror that produces a radiological incident." Thus the use of uranium munitions is "an act or terror" as defined by DHS.

USE OF URANIUM MUNITIONS CAN NOT BE JUSTIFIED

Finally continued compliance with the infamous March 1991 Los Alamos Memorandum that was issued to ensure continued use of uranium munitions can not be justified.

In conclusion: the President of the United States - George W. Bush and The Prime Minister of Great Britain - Tony Blair must acknowledge and accept responsibility for willful use of illegal uranium munitions- their own "dirty bombs"- resulting in adverse health and environmental effects.

PRESIDENT BUSH AND PRIME MINISTER BLAIR ALSO SHOULD ORDER:

1. medical care for all casualties,

2. thorough environmental remediation,

3. immediate cessation of retaliation against all of us who demand compliance with medical care and environmental remediation requirements,

4. and stop the already illegal the use (UN finding) of depleted uranium munitions.

Fresh NATO cannon fodder: English, Dutch & Canadian Death Sentences
Not one word is heard in the complicit 'massmedia' about the present uranium radiation holocaust of millions of human beings. Nothing is heard while NATO is replacing thousands of US troops, mercenaries and heavy arms in illegally invaded Afghanistan for the planned and likewise illegal inhuman US attack on Iran.

Ten thousands of US troops, so called Special Forces, mercenaries, torture experts of different nationalities and heavy arms, napalm and cluster bombs dropping war planes, also Dutch F-16s, Black Hawk helicopters etc. - supporting the US genocides in Iraq and in also illegally invaded Afghanistan - are being replaced for the possible and likewise illegal US attack on Iran. All the people responsible for this global misery have liters of blood and the cancers of the innocents on their hands, but slavishly follow the PNAC's Apostles Credo: 'War is peace' - and profitable! - Well: the War Tribunals await them.

by Henk Ruyssenaars

FPF - Amsterdam, March 16th 2006 - Speaking to Radio Netherlands, as fresh Dutch troops left for the illegal war in Afghanistan, the most senior military commander, General Dick Berlijn - who is the PNAC/NATO errand boy in Holland, and as such also de facto and de jure guilty of all war crimes - referred to the political debate which preceded the 'killing and be killed' mission. Dutch member of parliament Bert Koenders half a year ago had a question: "Why should we take part in the illegal 'US Kill & Destroy" crimes?" - He was made to shut up, and has never been heard of again on the matter.

General Dick Berlijn, and all of these law people, moral, religious, political or 'journalistically' so called 'leaders' - lied as always about ''the broad level of political support.'' - There was only 'newspeak', faked and lied support in the by the warmongers owned propaganda channels and parroted by their brainwashed victims. The PNAC Group* (PG) owns all major forms of communication in Holland, and it's cowardly stenographers (former journalists) are now slaving to advocate the PG's crimes and secure their $billion profits.

INFANTICIDE: THE KILLING OF MORE THAN A MILLION CHILDREN

They all are to blame and guilty of crimes against humanity, including the crime of infanticide: the killing of more than a million children according to the Red Cross and Unicef.* - When a third of them was killed - 500.000 = Half a million toddlers from 0 to 5 years old - the PG's Madeleine Albright-Korbel as US Secretary of State said that ''the price was worth it.''* - The top level war criminals know this, but are sending now again - and against the will of the majority of the Dutch people, who also by the same criminals are forced to pay for those crimes - up to one-thousand-five-hundred (1500) brainwashed Dutch troops. Along with the majority of the local people in the american slaughterhouses they'll be sacrificed on the radioactive battlefields, the PNAC altar. Their blood and lives wasted and down the drain for the PNAC's profit.

"When our government asked parliament to support this mission, there was overwhelming support. That is very important for our soldiers. Whether or not there is strong support in our society when we have the first casualties, is something to be seen." General Berlijn in his role as an active PNAC war criminal said.

''As the general's words suggest, it is now regarded as inevitable that there will be some casualties among the Dutch force during the two years of its operations in Uruzgan", Dutch state international propaganda radio RNW commented. Some casualties? With a proven risk of the 56% disability rate? As the brainwashed and wounded US troops already have? None of those warmongers and their stenographers in the media have any human decency.

DEADLY DANGERS OF DU: URANIUM RADIATION HOLOCAUST

The so called 'governments' - and all politicians from left to right - have been informed a thousand times. In words and in writing. But in the whole dutch debate in the treacherous 'parliament' - and on all state propaganda channels - not ONE word was said aloud about the at present very well known facts and investigations concerning the ongoing uranium radiation holocaust on the PNAC battlefields. Slow death for millions through the globally proliferating abuse of ammunition with so called 'depleted uranium' (DU), a permanent disaster for billions of years for all mankind.

In the media in The Netherlands, the FPF started a debate among 'journalists' on - among other criminal cases - DU radiation, and was 'spiked' 3 years ago by the only one in Holland allowed Journalists Association NVJ, molded by a PNAC figure. Instead of having one of the few senior foreign correspondents still alive and kicking in the PNAC colony - [http://tinyurl.com/qq7r2] - commenting (for free) on the horrible inhuman matter, the 'Netherlands Journalists Association' closed it's Forum web sites! All three of them! Proving they are part of our problem.

Hardly anybody of the 16 million inhabitants of the maltreated country was mentally still capable to react... That's what The Group 'running' The Netherlands has done to the people everywhere: turned them into aliens; not able to understand other human beings or logic anymore. Those people were made to think that a man in a cave with a computer was more clever than the fourty $billion CIA. And unseen by this legion of international 'spooks' in New York can plant all the explosives for a controlled demolition of the WTC skyscrapers on 9/11.*

9/11 WAS A PNAC INSIDE JOB

'Americans' - some with double nationality - killing three thousand other Americans, poisoning the main part of New York and the minds of hundreds of millions, falsely blaming 'the Arabs'. A totally weird story, lacking every trace of logic, but enough for the US 'aliens' - all those not able to think straight anymore- to support the Bush adminstration and it's managers in illegal wars.* - But finally a growing group of scientists and many others in the US and world combined science and commen sense, have the proof and know the truth.*

A truth not spread in PNAC colony Holland, with all state propaganda called 'information' or even 'news', concentrated in the hands of ONE man - Hans Laroes - the #1 politruk of the Netherlands broadcasting Corp's NOS 'newspeak' channel. In The Netherlands 'journalists' have done nothing to stem the tide when they saw the Group destroying the social fabric of a once rather inventive and open society. And when they react is too little and very late. But those brave few who said something critical, have all been declared 'radio-active' - meanig socially and economically 'dead'. And at least one has lately been liquidated, a thousand feet (300 mtrs) from where this written. - [http://tinyurl.com/78ltu] - No good critical journalist has work via a 'normal' paid job. They are all blacklisted. But they'll work full time when all those war criminals with their collaborators and assorted Quislings end their days in front of the War Crimes Tribunals. We're really looking forward to that event.

PROPAGANDA, COMMERCE AND STATE LIES

Many had expected the Journalists Union after a long terminal phase, to shape up; this after the returning to Israel of the former 'chairman' of the Dutch Journalists Union mr. Ron Abrams, who - regrettably - held the reigns for too many years. The effect on what once was journalism, was and is disastrous, turning 90% of the reporting into a pack of propaganda, commerce- and state lies.

But it killed the dutch 'debate', so thanks to 'them' DU will in the future kill a lot of the by the US troops attacked populations, plus of course the ignorant Dutch troops. 56% of them will most probably get cancer, this misled cannon fodder now being radiated, as the usual victims of the pack of lies by the warmongers and the miserable media-miscreants the war profiteers own. And everything is as always totally illegal and under fake NATO 'help/reconstruction' cover. The only thing the collaborators in crime keep alive, contrary to the local people, is the inhuman PNAC Group with their 'Project for a Nefarious American Century'.*

NOWADAYS 'HUMANITARIAN HELP' MEANS EXTERMINATING HUMAN LIFE

The dutch PNAC colony's "Task Force Uruzgan" (TF-U), will replace the illegal american cannon fodder in the radiated war zone - they're on stand-by for the next quagmire, Iran - and the Dutch troops will take along as much as they can of the by the ill informed Dutch taxpayers paid heavy arms, ships, airplanes and helicopters for billions. This includes a number of heavily-armed units, which will operate illegally alongside the fake 'Provincial Reconstruction Team'.

TOO LATE AND TOO MANY WILL DISCOVER THAT THE ONLY THING TO RECONSTRUCT, WILL BE THEIR HEALTH, AT A 56% RISK OF BEING DESTROYED FOREVER.

Comment by the Dutch state radio: "Uruzgan is regarded - and this is unlikely to change in the near future - as a "dangerous" province, with that danger coming in the form of a mixture of Taliban, al-Qaeda followers and drugs barons. [The PNAC's CIA is financed with drugs trade - HR] - This summer, NATO will take over the command of three southern provinces from the United States, and the three NATO countries taking on that role - Canada in Kandahar, the United Kingdom in Helmand and the Netherlands in Uruzgan - will take turns at overall command of NATO's entire operations in the south, taking instructions for a main headquarters in Kabul which, in turn, is led from one of NATO's headquarters outside Afghanistan, namely in the Dutch town of Brunssum."

IN THE WHOLE PROPAGANDA THE EXPRESSION OR WARNING FOR 'DEADLY RADIATION' IS NOWHERE TO BE SEEN OR HEARD

Like in Canada, England, and some other cowardly collaborating colonies, the creatures responsible for the war crimes in The Netherlands are silent, and send those people - never their own children - off to death and destruction. Soldiers/mercenaries which are finishing off themselves and doing it to others. By bombs, bullets or cancer.

THAT IS PREMEDITATED MURDER IN AN ILLEGAL WAR - A WAR CRIME!

The historical disability rate amongst soldiers last century was about 5 PERCENT, although it approached 10 PERCENT DURING VIETNAM. But due to the use of depleted uranium in the battlefield, 56 PERCENT of the 580,400 solders that served in the first Gulf War were on Permanent Medical Disability by 2000.

11,000 GULF WAR VETERANS ARE ALREADY DEAD.

And millions of people like you and me died in the by the US illegally invaded countries and in the worst possible circumstances.

Join the resistance: support all people who want to stop the global US Holocaust.

And remember the murderers in the media without whom this global massacre never would have been possible.
