A Swedish Pentacostalist pastor has been sentenced to two years imprisonment for raping a member of a prayer group which he led at a church in Stockholm, according to a report in the Dagens Nyheter daily.

The married father of several children was sentenced at Södertörns district court in July in spite of his denials.

The man claimed that in fact it was he that had been raped by the woman, telling the court that once he had freed himself from "the grip of her limbs" he knelt by the side of the bed and prayed.

The pastor became friends with the woman at the prayer group and when she sought help finding a new room mate he offered to help, suggesting another single female member of the congregation.

But when the man turned up at the woman's apartment, he came alone, bearing only a condom.

The pastor proceeded to suggest that the pair live in the apartment together, a suggestion the woman dismissed out of hand as she had no intention of living with a man.

After a conversation lasting around an hour, the woman rose to go to the toilet and when she opened the door found herself confronted by the pastor who dragged her into the bedroom and raped her.

The woman was left injured and shocked by the incident and has not been able to return to work since.

The newspaper reported that the pastor had previously been forced out of a Pentecostalist church in Stockholm after members of the congregation accused him of molestation.

On that occasion, three years ago, the police were not informed.

IslamHamburg: 1st German City To Recognize Muslim Holidays by akanke79(op): 2:03am On Aug 15, 2012
Hamburg is becoming the first German city to recognize Islamic holidays for its 150,000-strong Muslim community.


The decision, based on which Muslim employees and students can celebrate holidays at home, forms part of an agreement between the north German city and local Muslim groups, the Associated Press reported on Tuesday.

Muslims are going to celebrate the end of the holy fasting month of Ramadan in the weekend.


The city of two million people has already recognized the holidays of Christian and Jewish communities.

The mayor of Hamburg, Olaf Scholz, expressed hopes other German cities would follow suit.

Conservatives and far-right groups feel unhappy with the growing public presence of Islamic culture in Germany.

Police are on alert in Berlin for possible violence this weekend after a small far-right party announced plans to stage protests outside mosques in the German

capital.

Swedish mothers rage against balcony flasher

Published: 9 Aug 12 11:05

A man in Sandviken in central Sweden has been warned by authorities on two occasions for masturbating naked on his balcony, a fact that is making local mothers demand his eviction.

“We are looking after our children,” one of the mothers told local paper Gefle Dagblad.

The mothers organized a petition against the nude balcony masturbator and gathered 400 signatures demanding the man should be forced to move out of his rented apartment.

Mats Johansson at Sandvikenhus, the alleged flasher’s landlord, told the paper that they are working to solve the situation in a way that will be in the interest of all parties.

“To evict someone isn’t always the best solution. Wherever they live they could go and flash children at some playground,” he told GD.

However, Johansson also said that it would be hard for the landlord to keep the man on as a tenant if he flashes people from his balcony.

The mothers are scared that the man will prove to be a threat to the local children. But according to Johansson, he has spoken to the man’s psychiatric support staff and they are adamant that he doesn’t have any such tendencies.

However, the local mothers are not happy with these assurances.

“Flashers need to get care and we need to protect our children,” one said to the paper.

Foreign Affairs'dangerous' Bank Robbers Still On The Run (SWEDEN) by akanke79(op): 1:41pm On Aug 11, 2012
'Dangerous' bank robbers still on the run


Published: 8 Aug 12





The search for the three masked men who robbed a bank in western Sweden on Tuesday morning continued through the night, with police warning the public that the men are armed and dangerous.


The police hunt began after the three men, armed with AK4 automatic weapons, robbed a bank in Töcksfors just after 8.30am on Tuesday morning.

According to eye-witnesses, the men left the bank holding blue Ikea bags, guns, and had a female member of staff in tow who they immediately released.

Police believe that the thieves are in still in the area, after having burnt out their getaway vehicle and switching to a blue and new Volvo V70 just under two kilometres from the Norwegian border. Police cannot confirm if the men have crossed the border.

The police are currently searching the small forest roads nearby, as well as secluded cottages, and the many gardens that could possibly provide hiding places for the men.

“We’ve had a number of roadblocks and observation posts in the area during the night,” said Leif Hultman of the Värmland police to the TT news agency.

Witnesses managed to take photos of the men as they made their getaway, and the bank’s security camera captured images of the man, however, the masks make the identification process impossible.

The police have warmed that the men should be considered dangerous and public intervention is not advised, rather, that any sighting should be immediately reported.

Police are not revealing exactly how much money the men stole from the bank.http://www.thelocal.se/42488/20120808/
CrimeFrench Mother Arranged For Her Daughter To Be Molested by akanke79(op): 4:53pm On Aug 10, 2012
A woman from eastern France has admitted delivering her 5-year-old daughter to be sexually abused by a 38-year-old paedophile she met on an internet forum.



The incident came to light at the weekend after the woman, from Nancy, took her daughter to the doctor. The girl, who was bleeding profusely, was admitted to hospital in the city. Doctors said the injuries were the worst they had seen on a child of that age, according to local paper le Républicain Lorrain.



The mother initially told police that the girl's injuries were caused when she fell during a zoo visit on Friday. When told that the girl's injuries did not match this story, the mother changed her account, saying that her daughter had been raped at a motorway rest stop.



After further questioning the mother admitted that she had delivered her daughter to a man she had met in an online chartroom. She confessed having numerous explicit chats with him, after which she agreed to deliver her daughter to the man's home in Talange, near Metz. The girl was delivered to her alleged attacker in the early afternoon and was collected by her mother at 11pm.



The paper said investigators have not yet established the mother's reasons for agreeing to deliver her daughter.



A 38-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of abusing the girl and has been questioned by police.

IslamAmerican Pastor Joins Muslims In Ramadan Fast by akanke79(op): 1:22pm On Aug 08, 2012
https://previous.presstv.ir.nyud.net/photo/20120807/geraphian20120807144838763.jpg

An American Pastor, Reverend Wess Magruder, has decided to partake in the Muslims holy month of Ramadan this year with his Muslim friends, by fasting, praying and reading the Holy Quran.

The United Methodist has not only decided to observe the Ramadan fast this year but also to share his experience on his personal blog, Shia-Online reported.

"I feel a constant “buzz” [during the fast] in my head," Magruder wrote on his blog.

"This buzz serves a useful purpose, by the way. It keeps me conscious of God, of God’s presence, of God’s will that is bursting to become real in the world. And so when something else isn’t going on in front of me, the buzz reminds me to speak to God," he added.

Magruder also wrote that he turned to the Muslim faith for inspiration since he knew that Muslims have successfully been fasting for 30 days each year during Ramadan for over fourteen hundred years.

“I feel very happy and fortunate now,” Magruder wrote, who has succeeded in fasting from sunrise till sunset.

In his blog, Magruder invited all people of the Christian faith to try the fasting experience even for one day.

The Muslim fast is a total abstention from eating and drinking during the daylight hours. Furthermore, the fast goes beyond stomach and includes the eyes, the tongue, the ears, and all limbs which are expected to be trained to submit to the pleasure of God by refraining from ill manners and moral vice.

Bishop Musa Story


On the 8 April 2010 ,8 policemen let themselves in by key to the Musa family home in Haringey North London and removed the Musa's 5 children without any notice or prearrangement. The children were removed on dubious, untrue allegations made by certain people at Haringey council, all of which have been disproven, the allegations ranging from the children not being the Musas offspring and were being trafficked, to the children being beaten, etc. Regarding the child trafficking allegation a DNA test proved the opposite that  that the children were indeed the Musas, and the children were in no way being trafficked in any shape or form. After this allegation was disproved other equally false allegations were made to keep the children from returning to their once happy home. One such allegation that was made was that Gloria Musa was an active sex worker - a LovePeddler - who plied her trade in front of her congregation and also in front of her children. She is, in fact. an ordained bishop in the Evangelical Church of Africa - a bit of a difference. This ridiculous allegation was made with no evidence of any kind to substantiate it yet the court believed this nonsense, along with other unsubstantiated allegations such as the children were beaten by the parents, even though medical examinations made when the council took the children showed no sign of anything to back their allegation.During the time the children were removed the eldest, now 11 year old Favour Musa, complained of being "inappropriatly touched" - sexually molested in other words - by the teenage habitee of the foster home she was placed in. Also she had contracted scabies whilst at this home. Ever since this child complained of her harrassment,over a year ago, she has not been seen by any family member - it is not known whether she is alive or dead, is even in this country and the council refuse to relate anything about the child when the parents enquire after her. She has simply vanished and she has not been seen by anybody for over a year since she made the allegation of intimate molestation by the teenage family member she was placed in the home of.There is a £1000 reward been offered by an anonymous donor for her giving her testimony on video. They have also changed her name to "Lizzie". This article on "Parent Alienation Syndrome" shows how changing a childs name,location and lifestyle can turn her away from her loving parents and all she knew before: http://www.coeffic.demon.co.uk,
Although commonly used in divorce cases it can of course be used to alienate parents after the child is moved into a foster home.  Recently on the 27th June 2011 the Musas took their baby to St. Thomas's hospital, London as they thought she seemed to have a fever - a temperature. This was enough for Haringey council to arrange for the police to remove the baby, claiming it had been administered hard drugs, even though tests taken by medical staff at the hospital at the time proved negative for all drugs in not only the baby but also in both parents. Nevertheless an Emergency Protection Order {EPO} was placed on the baby immediatly and she has been removed from the Musa family, even though the reasons for the baby's removal are totally fictional. At a court hearng on the 7th July the judge, who happened to be the original judge who ordered the removal of the other 5 children, believing the Haringey councils fake allegations, confirmed he would be issuing an Interim Care Order {ICO} on the newly taken baby, thus effectively removing her from the parents care, when a 2 week period was up. This he duly did, and the baby Elizabeth has not now been seen since 28th June, the date of her removal. For no contact visits to be allowed is totally illegal, against British law, and against the "Childrens Act" and the parents and baby's Human Rights.

PoliticsThe Worst case of Child Abuse in the UK. by akanke79(op): 9:58am On Feb 10, 2012
A British journalist, Paul Randle-Jolliffe has for the second time written Nigerian President, Goodluck Jonathan over British governments’ seizure of six Nigerian children in the United Kingdom.

The six children including an infant of a Nigerian couple, Ciwar and Gloria Musa are in the custody of British authorities because the British Police insists the children are not biological children of the couple.The five minors were said to have been whisked away by the men of the Haringey Police to the Sharon Fair Haringey Social Service  on June 12, 2010, after they had stormed the Norwich Park Hospital where the woman claimed she had given birth to the last child who is also in custody of the police.

Chiwar and Gloria Musa who claim to be parents of the children were said to have been reported to the London Borough of Haringey by one Alexandra Constantinou, on the grounds that the mother is a sex worker and that the children have different fathers.

The letter reads in part; “Respectfully I write this letter as a highly concerned British National in conjunction with the enclosed letters as the advocate for Mr Musa. I want to draw your attention to the following You tube video of myself and numerous articles in the UK Telegraph by Christopher Booker regarding Mr & Mrs Musa (although not named by him) and the plan that London Borough of Harringay revealed in Court yesterday to adopt the children. In effect, the older children have been kidnapped through fraud and are now planned to be adopted through the same fraud.Unfortunately, this is a common occurrence in the UK especially with people of African heritage but it’s also affecting thousands of British families and as this includes Nigerian state nationals and highly likely not just this family, I believe that it is your duty to intervene and I would like to assist in that case.”

There are other options I would wish to discuss but just to give you some overview, please watch and read the following and note that I have had some greater or lesser dealings with all the cases mentioned by Christopher Booker.”
However, an official of the Nigerian High Commission who sought anonymity, confirmed that the matter was considered by the commission in London last two weeks when LEADERSHIP WEEKEND approached the commission.

On Saturday 3 Dec I visited Gloria Musa in Holloway Womens prison, London. I was distressed to see her condition and also what she had to tell me.
Firstly, her physical condition is very bad. She is still suffering from what could well be a broken knee – that is the joint is broken or is seriously damaged. She uses walking sticks to get around and is in great pain when she walks, yet is getting no medical treatment whatsoever from the prison or elsewhere. This injury occurred originally just hours after the birth of the baby {who has since been snatched}, which seriosly needs investigating by an honest, responsible party, far away from Haringey council and their dubious connections, such as Haringey / Hornsey police. It was they that inflicted the injuries to Gloria on the night of the baby’s birth in June 2010, when over 9 police officer burst into her hospital room when she was breast feeding her newborn. Basically they attacked her, at one point nearly strangling her to death. The injuries she suffered then she is still suffering today – namely the broken/badly damaged knee mentioned earlier. This was further aggravated during the farcical arrest regarding the “conspiricy to abduct the children from Haringey council” charge, later dismissed as being completely without foundation, in September this year, where she was seriously manhandled by Tottenham police again, causing added aggravation to her existing knee injury. She tells me it is broken, yet no treatment has been forthcoming, which i find incredible, but not so when one realises the appalling treatment a connected supporter to the Musa family case had at the hands of the authorities whilst in Cardiff prison – Maurice Kirk, where staff at the prison beat him so badly he had to be taken to Cardiff Central hospital after to have x-rays on his ankle{s} for suspected broken bones in them. So, all in all, it should not be surprising that Gloria Musa also has untreated broken bones, or at the least a seriously injured knee which is getting no treatment, and has suffered physical attacks at the hands of these bullies. Whilst at the prison on Saturday it was made known to the staff there that something is to be done about this appalling situation.
The 2nd thing i found worrying was that Gloria said she hadnt eaten any food since the previous Monday – 5 days earlier – the day of her imprisonment. She has been drinking only water since then. Also she said she hadnt slept since being locked away either. The cell is freezing cold she said, with a cracked window and no heating, hence her urgent request that was met of taking her in warm clothes which Belinda saw to. Gloria wept throughout the entire visit whilst recounting the past few days.
Thirdly Gloria said that she was told what was behind their imprisonment what the authorities deem “adverse publicity” about their case appearing on the internet and elsewhere. To explain, there are numerous sites on the internet dealing with the Musa case, and connected cases such as Maurice Kirk’s where the Musa case is often mentioned, Maurice being a strong supporter for the family who has also suffered so badly at the hands of the bad apples in the barrel we call the “government” – the town councils, judiciary, characters who have legal “qualifications” and police and connected departments. The articles on these sites often expose the serious crimes and other unacceptable irregularities enacted by those just named – for example – documentation of the children being taken by fictitious allegations are rightly often mentioned on the internet and elsewhere, for this aspect alone is in itself shocking in that 6 children can be taken from a responsible loving family when the reasons for them being taken is manufactured out of thin air. Not one of the allegations used to take the children in April 2010 can be proven to be valid and truthful, but instead of returning the children as they should be these concocted allegations are compounded by many more fictitious allegations and reports of fiction which the courts are so ready and willing to believe as the truth, and act upon, when in reality they are not truthful at all, but lies. Another example is the original legal “bundle” used in the courts of the evidence of the case on many occasions has been very much altered from how it once was and should be, with parts added or taken away or wording of articles completely changed, so much so that it does not resemble in any way its original counterpart. No wonder things like this are brought into the open and reported widely when all official complaints about irregularities have been dismissed if theyve had any attention paid to them at all. Judges Reviews have not even been allowed to be issued, let alone even read by anybody that should be concerned about them. Hundreds of emails detailing the irregularities in this case have been sent by many supporters to all the MPs here and in Ireland and Europe along with many regulatory authorities and more with hardly any response whatsoever – the indifference to some serious crimes committed in the Musa case is shocking – eg. Favour Musa being “inappropriatly touched” – sexually molested – by a member of the foster family – nothing at all has been done about this and the child had been made to disappear since she told her mother on a contact visit some 17 months ago.It is disgraceful that nobody we pay for being in authority does anything about this. To expose the many irregularities publicly, not only in this country but in many African locations as well as in Canada, is the last thing any of the guilty parties making the allegations etc want, so the Musa parents are incarcerated whether to silence or punish them for what has already happened.
Having had 22 charges laid against the Musa parents already more is planned next week by the Metropolitan police – Hornsey, the same section who found there was no case to answer for the Musas having carried out one investigation already regarding the Musas giving the baby “drugs”.

Foreign Press Rents Tel Aviv Rooftops to Cover Iran War

Richard Silverstein
Wednesday, February 8, 2012

You remember the descriptions of the First Battle of Bull Run when all of Washington’s high society rode out in their fine carriages and horses to picnic under the shady trees and watch their Union boys send the Yankees packing?

Did they get the shock of their lives when the Rebel musket balls whizzed over their heads and the Union soldiers ran for their lives from the field? Or similarly, the Israelis in southern Israel who took lawn chairs out to watch the IDF smash Gaza to smithereens in 2009? Here’s a picture of another group of expectant, thrilled Israelis watching the action.

That’s what the foreign press corps appears to be doing now in Tel Aviv in preparation for an attack on Iran. They’re renting the right to put film crews and reporters on the city’s rooftops (Hebrew) during the upcoming war in order to cover the anticipated Iranian counterattack. That way they can get great photo ops and pictures of missiles wreaking havoc on the city. What a story! What a feast for the eyes! Other news organizations like CBS, Fox News, and NBC are sending their senior producers to Israel to scope out the place in case they have to send in the big boys–the news anchors and senior correspondents (especially since no one can report from Teheran!).

We can’t wait! I don’t know why I should have to point out that this is irony. But there are some right-wingers who have neither a sense of irony nor humor. So it’s for them I guess.
Foreign AffairsEmbassies In Israel Prepare For Possible Israel-iran Fallout, Request Gas Masks by akanke79(op): 1:26pm On Feb 09, 2012
Wed Feb 8, 2012
Diplomats stationed in foreign embassies in Israel have recently started to prepare contingency plans in case of any missile attack launched by Iran.


According to a report by ynetnews.com, foreign embassies have initiated emergency plans in order to evacuate their citizens from Israel in the framework of the preparations for possible fallout in case of an Israeli strike on Iran.

Diplomatic missions in Israel have reportedly requested to be equipped with gas masks and there is fear that thousands of dual-citizenship Israelis will seek evacuation.

The Israeli foreign ministry has provided foreign embassies with a list of public bomb shelters across the country.

The Home Front Command is also preparing to launch a two-day drill in the southern Israeli city of Ashkelon with Israel Defense Forces (IDF), firefighters and police officers taking part in the exercise.

This comes on the heels of a warning by US Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, saying there is a strong possibility that Israel will launch an attack on Iran in April, May, or June 2012.

The United States, Israel, and some of their allies accuse Tehran of pursuing military objectives in its nuclear program. Washington and Tel Aviv have repeatedly threatened Tehran with the "option" of a military strike against its atomic facilities.

Iran refutes the Western allegations and argues that as a signatory to the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and a member of the International Atomic Energy Agency, it has every right to develop and acquire nuclear technology for peaceful purposes.

This is while the Israeli regime is widely known to possess between 200 and 400 nuclear warheads. Furthermore, Tel Aviv refuses to allow its nuclear facilities to come under international regulatory inspections and rejects any international nuclear regulatory agreements.

HealthGirls, 13, Given Contraceptive Implants At School by akanke79(op): 1:21pm On Feb 09, 2012
Girls as young as 13 have been fitted with contraceptive implants at school without their parents knowing.
The procedure was carried out in Southampton, Hants, as part of a government initiative to drive down teenage pregnancies.

As many as nine secondary schools in the city are thought to have been involved.

But it has caused a backlash from parents who weren't aware that their daughters had been fitted with the 4cm device, which sits under the skin.

It is currently unknown exactly how many youngsters have taken part in the scheme.
Parents say they have been forced to inspect their child's arm for any sign of the implant.

Health chiefs have defended sexual health services going into schools, saying teenage pregnancies had dropped by 22 per cent as a result.

But campaigners from the Family Education Trust say the implant fuels the flames of promiscuity by giving girls licence to have underage sex.

Norman Wells, director of the trust, has urged health chiefs to look at ways of discouraging sexual activity amongst children in the first place.

He said: "Schemes like these inevitably lead to boys putting pressure on girls to have sex.
"They can now tell their girlfriends: 'You can get the school clinic to give you an implant, so you don't have to worry about getting pregnant.'

"They'll tell them they don't have to face the embarrassment of going to see their doctor, and it's all confidential so their mum doesn't need to know a thing.

"Parents send their children to school to receive a good education, not to be undermined by health workers who give their children contraceptives behind their backs.
"Health authorities should be looking for ways of discouraging young people from engaging in sexual activity in the first place.

"The last thing they should be doing is fuelling the flames of promiscuity and the sexual health crisis with schemes that treat parents, the law and basic moral principles with contempt."

One mother, whose 13-year-old daughter was given the implant, has called the scheme "morally wrong".

She claimed the school had gone ahead without consulting their family doctor.

The woman, who wished to remain anonymous, said the pupils had to simply fill out a questionnaire about their medical history.
They then underwent a consultation with health experts before receiving the contraceptive but there was a lack of follow-up appointments.

She said: "I feel really angry about this.

"I agree that teaching teenagers about sexual health and contraception is very important but this is a step too far.

"To perform a minor surgical procedure on school grounds, without parents knowing is morally wrong.

"I'm told a long list of checks were made before she had this implant but how many 13-year-olds are aware of their full medical history?

"I cannot understand how this is allowed to happen.

"Teenagers have the right to protect themselves and she did the right thing by seeking advice but to not be checked after such a procedure is totally wrong.

"Luckily I now know but many other parents are unaware their daughter has one.

"I have spoken to a lot of parents at the school and they were horrified to find out this was happening.

"As parents we want to protect our children and I feel that has been taken away from me."

Alan Whitehead, Labour MP for Southampton Test, has now been asked to look into the matter.

He said: "This contraceptive implant clearly requires a surgical procedure which ought to be undertaken in suitable and appropriate conditions.

"I am not sure whether the services that are being offered at the moment enable this it happen and that is what I am going to be looking into."

Health chiefs have defended the scheme, insisting letters were sent to all parents at participating schools in 2009 when the service was launched.

It was then left to individual schools to inform parents of all future students joining, either by letter or in the prospectus.

They also say reports are showing that teenage pregnancies have dropped by 22 per cent since sexual health services went in to schools.

In Southampton there were as many as 136 pregnancies among 13 to 15 year olds in 2001 and 2003, this fell to 106 in 2007-2009.

A spokeswoman for Solent NHS Trust and NHS Southampton said: "We are committed to ensuring local young people are able to access clinically appropriate sexual health support.

"This helps them to avoid unwanted pregnancies and protect themselves from sexually transmitted infections.

"One element of this is commissioning a sexual health service for young people that is provided in nine secondary schools across the city.

"The service is provided by trained staff and includes offering information, advice and support to students.

"It also includes chlamydia screening, condom distribution, pregnancy testing, providing a range of contraception methods and referral to other services.

"Since the service was introduced there has been a reduction in the number of under 16-year-olds who have become pregnant.

"The service is provided by Solent NHS Trust which undertakes detailed medical assessments for all patients attending any sexual health clinic.

"In addition, all young people under the age of 16 who visit sexual health services receive a full risk assessment.

"This is over and above national guidance and meeting all legal requirements."

If huge savings are amassed from oil exports and austerity measures, one cannot realistically expect that these funds will be invested towards infrastructure development based on the current track record of the Nigerian Government. Further more, it is increasingly more likely that any proceeds from a SWF would be beneficial to Western institutions and markets, which initially demanded its creation.

Nigerian philanthropist Bukar Usman prophetically writes “I have genuine fears that the SWF would serve us no better than other foreign-recommended “remedies” which we had implemented to our own detriment in the past or are being pushed to implement today.”

The abrupt simultaneous removal of fuel subsidies in several West African nations is a clear indication of who is really in charge of things in post-colonial Africa. The timing of its cushion-less implementation could not be any worse, Nigeria’s president Goodluck Jonathan recently declared a state of emergency after forty people were killed in a church bombing on Christmas day, an act allegedly committed by the Islamist separatist group, Boko Haram.

The group advocates dividing the predominately Muslim northern states from the Christian southern states, a similar predicament to the recent division of Sudan.

As the United States African Command (AFRICOM) begins to gain a foothold into the continent with its troops officially present in Eritrea and Uganda in an effort to maintain security and remove other theocratic religious groups such as the Lord’s Resistance Army, the sectarian violence in Nigeria provides a convenient pretext for military intervention in the continuing resource war.

For further insight into this theory, it is interesting to note that United States Army War College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania conducted a series of African war game scenarios in preparation for the Pentagon’s expansion of AFRICOM under the Obama Administration.

In the presence of US State Department Officials, employees from The Rand Corporation and Israeli military personnel, a military exercise was undertaken which tested how AFRICOM would respond to a disintegrating Nigeria on the verge of collapse amidst civil war. The scenario envisioned rebel factions vying for control of the Niger Delta oil fields (the source of one of America’s top oil imports), which would potentially be secured by some 20,000 U.S. troops if a US-friendly coup failed to take place.

At a press conference at the House Armed Services Committee on March 13, 2008, AFRICOM Commander, General William Ward then went on to brazenly state the priority issue of America’s growing dependence on African oil would be furthered by AFRICOM operating under the principle theatre-goal of “combating terrorism”.

At an AFRICOM Conference held at Fort McNair on February 18, 2008, Vice Admiral Robert T. Moeller openly declared the guiding principle of AFRICOM is to protect “the free flow of natural resources from Africa to the global market”, before citing China’s increasing presence in the region as challenging to American interests.

After the unwarranted snatch-and-grab regime change conducted in Libya, nurturing economic destabilization, civil unrest and sectarian conflict in Nigeria is an ultimately tangible effort to secure Africa’s second largest oil reserves. During the pillage of Libya, its SFW accounts worth over 1.2 billion USD were frozen and essentially absorbed by Franco-Anglo-American powers; it would be realistic to assume that much the same would occur if Nigeria failed to comply with Western interests. While agents of foreign capital have already infiltrated its government, there is little doubt that Nigeria will become a new front in the War on Terror.

PoliticsNigeria: The Next Front For Africom by akanke79(op): 9:03am On Jan 08, 2012
On a recent trip to West Africa, the newly appointed managing director of the International Monetary Fund, Christine Lagarde ordered the governments of Nigeria, Guinea, Cameroon, Ghana and Chad to relinquish vital fuel subsidies.
https://theintelhub.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Africom_emblem.gif
Much to the dismay of the population of these nations, the prices of fuel and transport have near tripled over night without notice, causing widespread violence on the streets of the Nigerian capital of Abuja and its economic center, Lagos.

Much like the IMF induced riots in Indonesia during the 1997 Asian Financial Crisis, public discontent in Nigeria is channelled towards an incompetent and self-serving domestic elite, compliant to the interests of fraudulent foreign institutions.

Although Nigeria holds the most proven oil reserves in Africa behind Libya, it’s people are now expected to pay a fee closer to what the average American pays for the cost of fuel, an exorbitant sum in contrast to its regional neighbours. Alternatively, other oil producing nations such as Venezuela, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia offer their populations fuel for as little as $0.12 USD per gallon.

While Lagos has one of Africa’s highest concentration of billionaires, the vast majority of the population struggle daily on less than $2.00 USD. Amid a staggering 47% youth unemployment rate and thousands of annual deaths related to preventable diseases, the IMF has pulled the rug out from under a nation where safe drinking water is a luxury to around 80% of it’s populace.

Although Nigeria produces 2.4 million barrels of crude oil a day intended for export use, the country struggles with generating sufficient electrical power and maintaining its infrastructure. Ironically enough, less than 6% of bank depositors own 88% of all bank deposits in Nigeria. Goldman Sachs employees line its domestic government, in addition to the former Vice President of the World Bank, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, who is widely considered by many to be the de facto Prime Minister.

Even after decades of producing lucrative oil exports, Nigeria has failed to maintain it’s own refineries, forcing it to illogically purchase oil imports from other nations. Society at large has not benefited from Nigeria’s natural riches, so it comes as no surprise that a severe level of distrust is held towards the government, who claims the fuel subsidy needs to be lifted in order to divert funds towards improving the quality of life within the country.

Like so many other nations, Nigerian people have suffered from a systematically reduced living standard after being subjected to the IMF’s Structural Adjustment Policies (SAP). Before a loan can be taken from the World Bank or IMF, a country must first follow strict economic policies, which include currency devaluation, lifting of trade tariffs, the removal of subsidies and detrimental budget cuts to critical public sector health and education services.

SAPs encourage borrower countries to focus on the production and export of domestic commodities and resources to increase foreign exchange, which can often be subject to dramatic fluctuations in value. Without the protection of price controls and an authentic currency rate, extreme inflation and poverty subsist to the point of civil unrest, as seen in a wide array of countries around the world (usually in former colonial protectorates).

The people of Nigeria have been one of the world’s most vocal against IMF-induced austerity measures, student protests have been met with heavy handed repression since 1986 and several times since then, resulting in hundreds of civilian deaths. As a testament to the success of the loan, the average laborer in Nigeria earned 35% more in the 1970’s than he would of in 2012.

Working through the direct representation of Western Financial Institutions and the IMF in Nigeria’s Government, a new IMF conditionality calls for the creation of a Sovereign Wealth Fund. Olusegun Aganga, the former Nigerian Minister of Finance commented on how the SWF was hastily pushed through and enacted prior to the countries national elections.

CIA, Mossad made up fairytale al-Qaeda

An American investigative journalist says the al-Qaeda is a fairytale terrorist group made up by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and the Israeli spy agency, Mossad.


"In the US, the Zionist propagandists are spinning the fanciful tale that Iran was involved with "al-Qaeda," the fairy tale organization concocted by Mossad and the CIA, in carrying out the 9/11 attacks," Wayne Madsen wrote in an article published in Global Research.

Madsen was referring to the latest US allegation that Iran was involved in the September 11, 2001 attacks on New York and Washington.

On December 22, a US federal judge in Manhattan alleged that Iran, together with the Taliban and al-Qaeda, had been involved in the 9/11 attacks.

The court, meanwhile, withdrew Saudi Arabia's name from the 10-year-old case, even though 15 of the 19 attackers were Saudi nationals.

Tehran has condemned Washington's allegations as amateurish and baseless scenarios.

Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast said that the US is jeopardizing international peace and security by repeating such groundless claims.

He added that the US role in founding the al-Qaeda and supporting it is common knowledge.

The American journalist concluded that Iran is now facing an undeclared war being waged by the West and Israel.

"It is a war of computer viruses like the Israeli-developed Stuxnet, propaganda, support for armed insurgents, covert assassinations and sabotage, and political pressure against Iran's friends around the world. This softening up of Iran is expected by the West to make a final military assault on the country a cake walk. "

Foreign AffairsCome Fly With Transgenders! Thai Carrier Pc Air by akanke79(op): 6:13pm On Dec 29, 2011
https://www.pattayadailynews.com/en/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/259.jpg

Fasten your seatbelts! A Thai airline that hired transsexuals as flight attendants to set itself apart from competitors has taken to the skies.

PC Air, a new charter airline that plans to fly routes across Asia, originally set out to hire only male and female flight attendants.

But it changed its mind after receiving more than 100 job applications from transvestites and transsexuals.

Four were chosen, along with 19 female and 7 male flight attendants.

https://www.pattayadailynews.com/en/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/55.jpghttps://www.pattayadailynews.com/en/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/65.jpg

They are Chayathisa Nakmai, Dissanai Chitpraphachin, Nathatai Sukkaset and Phuntakarn Sringern.

Now the new trolly dollies have made their first journey on a flight from Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok to Surat Thani province, southern Thailand.

The airline is hoping to expand with new routes later this month.

During the interview process the airline said that the qualifications for the ladyboy flight attendants were the same as for female flight attendants, with the additional provisos that they be like women in how they walk and talk, and have a feminine voice and the right attitude.

Though there is very little discrimination against ladyboys in Thailand, they are not officially recognised as women and their identification cards will always say ‘male’.

Known as ‘katoeys’ or ‘ladyboys,’ transgenders and transsexuals have greater visibility in Thailand than in many other nations, holding mainstream jobs in a variety of fields.

They are especially common in cosmetics shops or health stores, which almost always have a ladyboy shop assistant.
