    Ransom claim in Ingrid Betancourt release | World news | guardian.co.uk

    If Betancourt’s assertions are true, then the United States is once again responsible (at least in part) for the setting up of false ‘heroic rescues’ and similar phenomena.

    We should not forget that intitial reports from Iraq claimed that Kurdish forces captured Saddam Hussein, who then turned him over to Coalition forces.

    Neither should we forget the Pat Tillman and Jessica Lynch affairs.

    Maybe we should just set Bush and Cheney adrift on the last ice flow.

    How Google Earth is Trying to Wipe Israel Off the Map

    No offense, but this entry is nonsense.  So is pretending that indigenous Palestinian Arabs do not exist and have no right to exist in thier own ancestral lands.  If the Ashkenazim can morally make a claim to a territory they departed in 70 CE due to European invasion and colonialisation, then all other displaced peoples, including North American Aboriginals, should be accorded the very same rights.

    New satellite photos show Amazon deforestation exploding

    This story is very disheartening. I wish we could send our military down to help Brazil protect the Amazon (rather than having them bogged down in Iraq).
