JERUSALEM – Israeli soldiers who fought in last winter's Gaza War say the military used Palestinians as human shields, improperly fired incendiary white phosphorous shells over civilian areas and used overwhelming firepower that caused needless deaths and destruction, according to a report released Wednesday.

Mouseland was a story told first by Clarence Gillis, and later and most famously by Tommy Douglas, leader of the Saskatchewan Co-operative Commonwealth Federation and, later, the New Democratic Party of Canada, both social democratic parties. It was a political fable expressing the CCF's view that the Canadian political system was flawed in offering voters a false dilemma: the choice of two parties, neither of which… Continue

The director of the National Cyber Security Center (NCSC), Rod Beckstrom, wants to see the nation’s traditions of democracy and human rights extend into the online world.
In his keynote at this year’s Black Hat conference, Beckstrom praised America’s founders, including George Mason, for devising the Bill of Rights and compared Mason’s ideas about human rights to “an open source module” created by an engineer for all to use.
“Cyberdemocracy — blogging — is a great use of… Continue
Let us begin today with full disclosure: For those who don't know my position on global warming alarmism and its insidious uses, it is that this phenomenon is the greatest hoax in modern times and is being used to achieve things - bad things - quite apart from its ostensible goal of "saving the planet."
Al Gore wanders the spheroid he is determined to save, spouting increasingly inane observations as his bank account grows and his "carbon footprint" becomes ever more Godzilla-like,… Continue

"Despite Crisis, Policy on Iran Is Engagement" states that "the accelerating crackdown on opposition leaders in Iran" will not deter the Obama administration from "seeking to engage the country’s top leadership in direct negotiations."
We don’t have a clue what’s actually going on in Iran.… Continue
