john_blaze:
I dont think its a case of ignorance, its rather the unwillingness to accept the fact that such device can exist. Lets all for a second believe that there is no such thing as H.A.A.R.P or earthquake weapons. It may be a conspiracy after all, but how do we explain the fact that a patent for this device exist?
Could that be another conspiracy?
For crying out loud.

Do the device exist? Well, there is a device called Harrp that do exsit.

Can it cause earthquake? Put it this way, there is no power on earth enough to cause the kind of earthquake in haiti. It is a thousand times stronger than the bomb dropped on Hiroshima and as such, no nation on earth have that kind of power. So NO Harrp do not posses the kind of power needed to cause an earthquake measuring almost 7 on the Richter scale. etc

As for claiming some scientist who participated in the project wrote a book. Excuse me, they sound more like disgruntled ex-employee who have an axe to grind. Imagine the copies it will sell - thanks to people who like you - when he makes such ridiculous claims!

The point is, there is a weapon called Harrp that exist. I have stated this from the first few threads [see the foreign section] that started all this crap about how US was behind it all. Yes, this weapon exist, but it do not have the kind of power most of you are suggesting. Why? Refer back to the second paragraph above.

Foreign AffairsGay P0rnography shown In Church! Praise The Lord! by ElRazur(op): 9:56am On Feb 19, 2010
Yes. It was reported that Gay indecency was shown in a church by the Pastor to the congregation. Why? Well, it is an attempt to gain support for the Anti-gay laws in Uganda.

I read the article [see below] and it worries me that Shock tactics are been used alongside religion so as to gather support for a law that is arguably backward in my opinion.

In one of the defence presented for such tactics, the pastor claimed that what ever people get up to - i.e love making - should be private. Yet, he opted to show a full blown intimacy movie in a church with children present. Surely, that is wrong in itself? But I guess common sense is not that obvious.

This sort of things underlies the hatred and bad attitude towards homosexuality in Africa. I firmly expect some to disagree with me, off course they are welcome to.

Full story:
A Ugandan clergyman's decision to show gay indecency to his congregation has been labelled as "twisted, homophobic propaganda" by a gay rights groups.

Behind the Mask told the BBC the stunt, by anti-gay Pastor Martin Ssempa, equated homosexuality to paedophilia.

The pastor showed the indecency in an attempt to gain support for a proposed law which would see some gay people facing the death penalty.

The bill, under consideration by MPs, has been condemned across the world.

US President Barack Obama has described the proposals as "odious".

Religion misused

Noma Pakade, from the African gay rights group Behind the Mask, accused the pastor of perpetuating violence by his anti-gay campaign.

"Showing indecency in church in the presence of minors is twisted homophobic propaganda, where homosexuality is equated to paedophilia and indecency," she told the BBC.

"It is not surprising, but rather disappointing, that in Africa in the 21st Century yet again discrimination and prejudice is legitimised through religion."

Homosexuality is already against the law in Uganda and punishable by lengthy jail terms.

But supporters of the bill, including the pastor, want the punishments ramped up.

"In Africa, what you do in your bedroom affects our clan, it affects our tribe, it affects our nation," he told the BBC's Network Africa programme.

He justified his decision to show gay indecency to about 300 people, saying: "We are in the process of legislation and we have to educate ourselves about what homosexuals do."

The anti-gay proposal, introduced into parliament as a private member's bill, garnered wide support among Ugandan MPs and conservative religious groups.

But President Yoweri Museveni recently hinted that he was coming under international pressure to scrap the proposals.

shotster50:
@ ELrazur,

If that assasination was top notch as you clearly think, the killers wont have their pictures and video footages displayed from all the way from Dubai to Israel. My take is Mossad probably did this as a ruse because it would be hard to believe they could be so careless.

If you think I am wrong,check the assasinations of the following people:

Alexander Valterovich Litvinenko

Georgi Markov .
I don't remember saying top-notch. All I have said that it is chilling and have hallmarks of the mossad.

I have also stated that could it be a possibility that Israel is getting framed?

In this day and age of digital electronics. It is almost difficult to carry out such activity without leaving some form of "evidence" behind. There are cctv everywhere - heck I have cctv installed in my house [outside] - so it is very difficult not to have someone's image recorded.

As for the Russian muder, there were traces of the radioactive poison that was used and was traceable. I did forensic science in my first year during my first degree and what I learnt is that there is no such thing as a perfect murder.



There are even suggestion by an ex-mossad member that was interviewed that the killing may have been done as a result of "in-fighting" between the Palestine etc. All speculation and no one knows the fact for now I think.




Abeem:
The Israelis uses its security outfit - Mossad to commit atrocities in other countries under disguise using all sort of forgeries to carry out their nefarious activities and some people are happy and hailing them for doing an excellent job. Well there is no hiding place for them and their evil security outfit this time around. The wind has blown and their rear end is exposed for all to see. It has been revealed that the cowards used British passports as camouflague to hid their identity so they can secure an easy passage and now the British prime minister has ordered a full scale investigation into the crime. See this link: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/feb/17/avigdor-lieberman-israel-mossad-killing
Are you kidding me? You quote the guardian right to back up your claim that Isreal was responsible. When the newspaper across UK have been using inverted commas in their headlines and upon reading the news story, it becomes clear that there is no solid evidence to proof that Mossad was responsible. So how did you reach your conclusion? I will suggest reading the paper again. Jeez.

For the record, Mossad have a policy of not making comment, deny or claiming responsiblity for clandestines activities. So let it be no surprise the guardian headline reads "Gordon Brown pledges inquiry as Israel refuses to rule out Mossad plot in Dubai". But I guess in your eyes, that is a conclusive evidence? Nah wah o.

For the record, all nation have their own security agency, USA have the CIA, the UK Mi5 and Mi6, Russia have KGB [FSB] etc. All these security out fit do carry out killings, espionage, covert operation, sabotage etc al around the world and guess what? They use fake passport to travel as it do not draw attention to their mission. Gosh.


Finally, I don't honestly think much will happen from the investigation ordered by Brown. At most, the UK passport security will be beefed up. It is very hard to forge as it is, but they can always make it harder. Also, it may be worth knowing that Britain have much to lose if they fall out with the Israel. They are our biggest ally in the ME. And as the world stands today, we need them. Period. This is politics and the death of a man perceived as terrorist by most western nation is going to derail relationship. Come to think of it, the only reason UK is concerned is the use of the passport and no the death of Mamoud.

I have a few speculative questions.

[b]So the British passport is hard to forge - We use Hologram instead of photos like some other nations - How did this go unnoticed by the Dubai authorities? If it is just one person, then I can understand, but as it stand 14 people in about a space of a week or so entered Dubai with fake passport. Is Dubai's airport security that lax? Or could it be they just turned a blind eye?

If this attack was carried out by Mossad, why will they [Israel] use the identities of Israelis? The last time they did something like this Canadian passport was used. Could it be someone or some group trying to make it look like Israel was responsible?


The Dubai authorities are yet to say anything officially, however the Police chief in Dubai already said he is "99% if not 100% certain that it was carried out by Mossad". This sound like giving up hope of finding the killers and laying the fault squarely at the feet of Mossad without a proof.

The western media have been careful in their reports of the incident - letting readers know that Israel is a suspect but nothing more. Yet on contrast, the papers in Middle east and Arab world are reporting that Israel DID do it. So what is going on?[/b]

Qs&As

Questions and answers: What do we know so far about the Dubai assassination?

Q. What exactly happened to Mahmoud al-Mabhouh?

A. When the Hamas militant arrived in Dubai, he may have believed he was there to meet an Iranian arms dealer. Six hours later, he was dead, assassinated after a sophisticated operation involving 18 people. The hit squad had arrived in Dubai the previous day. After tailing Mabhouh from the airport, CCTV footage shows two of the group entering a hotel lift with him; one then followed him to find out in which room he was staying. Shortly afterwards, another operative booked the room opposite for that night. When the target left his room, four men crossed the corridor to break in, while others stood guard in the lobby. Mabhouh returned at 8.24pm; police say he was asphyxiated soon after. His killers left the hotel about 20 minutes later.

Q. Who were the people behind the operation, and why were there so many?

A. One theory suggests that having lured Mabhouh to Dubai on the pretext of an arms sale, the hit squad had expected him to be accompanied by a security team, who would also need to be eliminated. The identities of the assassins remain a mystery. All the passports of the initial batch of 11 suspects have been declared fake. So far seven people living in Israel, including Britons, have said that their identities were stolen, adding fuel to theories that Mossad was behind the assassination. Yesterday the existence of seven more suspects emerged: of those, two are believed to be Palestinian and are in custody; the other five, one of them a woman, used EU passports.

Q. Why would Israel want Mabhouh dead?


A. The Palestinian had admitted to a role in the deaths of two Israeli soldiers in 1989 during the first Intifada, and still played a senior role in Hamas. There has been speculation that he was at the top of a "hit list" of militants believed to be dangerous to Israel. And while the Netanyahu government yesterday said there was no proof that Mossad was behind the assassination, it refused to refute the accusation, citing a "policy of ambiguity". Some commentators in Israel have called for the head of Mossad to resign. The counter-argument is that the Dubai operation appeared too ham-fisted to be the work of Mossad, and that it is instead the work of Israel's enemies seeking to discredit the Netanyahu government.

Q. If firm evidence emerges implicating Israel, what will the consequences be?

A. The potential for diplomatic fall-out is clear, with Gordon Brown demanding an inquiry yesterday into how British passports came to be used. There have been similar concerns voiced in Dublin and Paris. The Dubai authorities are inevitably furious at the idea of the country being used as a staging ground for assassinations. Even Vienna has been dragged in, with the hit squad using pre-paid Austrian mobile phone numbers. Israel is already feeling the international heat after the critical Goldstone report into its conduct during the Gaza war, and will not want its critics to have more ammunition.
