August
11, 2005
We are supposed
to be in the "dog days" of August, when little happens. But
the in-box seems to fill up with news, anyway, and we have to keep in
mind that even small events can have a big impact. We'll see some examples,
today, in this news and commentary.
World
War against the Islamicists
UK
Bans Hizb ut-Tahrir
BBC News/Townhall News
British Prime Minister Tony Blair announced that his government would
deport foreigners found to be "fostering hatred" and ban a Muslim
radical group called Hizb ut-Tahrir. The group, whose name means "Party
of Liberation," was founded in the 1950s in Jerusalem. Today, wrote
Ariel Cohen in a 2003 study for the Heritage Foundation, Hizb "is
a clandestine, cadre-operated, radical Islamist political organization
that operates in 40 countries around the world, with headquarters apparently
in London. Its proclaimed goal is jihad against America and the overthrow
of existing political regimes and their replacement with a caliphate (khilafah
in Arabic), a theocratic dictatorship based on the Shari'a (religious
Islamic law)." Hizb says on its website it hopes to bring the Islamic
nation "to her rightful place as the first state in the world, as
she was in the past, when she governs the world according to the laws
of Islam."
Clearly,
in the US, this would be a violation of constitutional rights - but since
the UK has no true constitution, the Blair regime can get away with it.
Should they? Some more research is indicated, and the potential impact:
UK
Ban strengthens Hizb ut Tahrir
Reuters
The radical Islamist group Hizb UT Tahrir said on Tuesday a ban on
its British branch would strengthen its appeal to young Muslims disenchanted
by what it called Western intolerance towards their faith. Abu Mamdouh
Qutaishat, a leader of the party, said the British action, part of sweeping
anti-terrorism measures after deadly London bombings, would make its followers
more determined to advocate reviving an Islamic caliphate by nonviolent
means.
Some quick
research indicates that the English language version of their website
(www.hizb-ut-tahrir.org/ ) does not indeed call for violent overthrow
of western or "corrupt" regimes AT THIS TIME. However, Global
Security as an interesting
article that goes into some length. The US has not found evidence
to declare it a terrorist group, but it is suspected of participating
in an extensive bombing campaign in Tashkent in recent years. Both Russia
and Germany have recently outlawed them as a terrorist group. My opinion:
the UK (and others) are wrong to ban them. They have a right to speak
and even organize, but I wouldn't want them as neighbors unless I knew
I had enough firepower to defend myself against them, when the "Time"
comes.
Mama's
Note: Folks like these are hypocrites, screaming for "tolerance"
and having absolutely none for anyone else themselves. Let them start
to condemn the violence and work toward open cooperation. Then people
might begin to give them the benefit of the doubt. I don't think it's
going to do any good to "ban" them, or anyone else, but in a
country where honest people are forcefully disarmed it's only a matter
of time before there is real trouble. You can bet your boots that these
Islamists are not unarmed!
Report:
9/11 hijackers ID'd in 1999
CBS News
"Sept. 11 ringleader Mohammed Atta and three other hijackers were
identified by defense intelligence officials more than a year before the
attacks, but information about possible al Qaeda connections never was
sent to law enforcement, Rep. Curt Weldon said Tuesday. Weldon, vice chairman
of the House Armed Services and Homeland Security committees, said the
hijackers were identified in 1999 by a classified military intelligence
unit known as 'Able Danger,' which determined they could be members of
an al Qaeda cell. Weldon said that in September 2000 the unit recommended
that its information on the hijackers be given to the FBI 'so they could
bring that cell in and take out the terrorists,' Weldon said in an interview.
However, Weldon said Defense Department lawyers rejected the recommendation
because they said Atta and the others were in the country legally."

One of
the risks ANY free society faces is that "preventive justice"
is not possible or desirable. It leaves us subject to greater dangers
if someone does wish to cause us harm. This is one of those situations
where it does no good to beat a dead horse, except to try and prevent
the same stupidity from happening again. And it would have been a moot
point - if any of the passengers had been armed instead of being disarmed
in the "cause" of safety (assuming that the aircraft really
were taken over by these people and that it was not some very deep conspiracy
as more and more are claiming).
Mama's
Note: Rehash of news that only reminds us of government stupidity.

Texas:
Idiot arrested in airplane bombing hoax
Houston Chronicle
"For years, signs at airports around the country have warned that
making jokes about bomb threats is a federal offense. Including a phone
number only makes it easier to catch you, as a 20-year-old San Antonio
man learned on Tuesday. FBI agents arrested Elias Jeremiah Cervantez,
accusing him of writing a hoax bomb threat discovered Friday on a Southwest
Airlines flight from Dallas to Houston. The note caused authorities to
close Hobby Airport for about 20 minutes and grounded the aircraft for
several hours while authorities investigated. 'We were just making dumb
jokes,' said Cervantez's roommate Josh Michael Gonzales. He said in a
telephone interview that the two thought, 'If somebody finds that, it's
going to be funny.' As it was, a passenger found two notes. One had the
phony bomb threat. The second, penned by Gonzales, had no threat -- only
a smiley face and a message to call what turned out to be Gonzales' wireless
phone number." (08/09/05)
I suppose
requiring an IQ test, or a common sense test, wouldn't be possible before
people like this are allowed to fly - or breed?
President
Tandja: "The people of Niger look well fed ..."
Independent [UK]
"The little boy lies on the blanket at a relief centre wrapped
in his own pain, lost to the world. The doctors are uncertain whether
his life can be saved. He is one of 32,000 children the United Nations
says is in danger of dying in Niger -- 'the number one neglected emergency
in the world.' The Médecins Sans Frontières camp in Maradi
is one of the busiest trying to cope with the unfolding catastrophe. There
are many other victims there. Abdu Issafou, 15 months old, is suffering
from acute diarrhoea and vomiting, diseases ravaging his young body left
weak by malnutrition. His mother, Hadiza, weeps knowing the life of her
son may be slipping away. But for Mamadou Tandja, sitting in the presidential
palace in the capital, Niamey, it is a matter of 'crisis, what crisis?'
'The people of Niger look well fed, as you can see,' President Tandja
says. All the talk of mass starvation is just 'foreign propaganda,' deception
by relief agencies to obtain increased funding." (08/10/05)
Just when
we think we in the US have the most stupid politicians money can buy.
Florida:
Harris kicks off Senate campaign
St. Petersburg Times
"Nobody is going to outdo Katherine Harris on Katherine Harris
makeup jokes. She made that clear Tuesday as she kicked off her campaign
for U.S. Senate. Aside from promising 'to stand up for what's right, speak
up for what's needed and rise up to get the job done,' she showed a self-effacing
side that hometown fans ate up. 'What I really wanted to say is I only
trail (incumbent Bill Nelson) by an eyelash, but I know what you guys
would do to me,' joked Florida's former secretary of state, whose makeup
became fodder for late night comics suggesting she overdid it. ... Harris
declared her candidacy in early June, but her higher-profile campaign
kickoff Tuesday appeared likely to quell efforts by Republican leaders
to recruit an alternative Republican to take on incumbent Democratic Sen.
Nelson. 'My job is done,' said Gov. Jeb Bush, who had unsuccessfully encouraged
Republican state House Speaker Allan Bense to run even after Harris announced
her candidacy. ... The National Republican Senatorial Committee is still
talking to prospective Republican candidates, spokesman Brian Nick said
Tuesday, but 'the window's closing.'" (08/09/05)
Talk about
a target-rich environment: Florida has much higher than its fair share
of stupid people. Lots of grist for Leno and company.
Georgia:
Runaway bride mows lawn of government building
Fox News
"Runaway bride Jennifer Wilbanks mowed the lawn of a government
building Tuesday as part of her court-ordered community service for lying
to police after she ran off days before her scheduled wedding. Wearing
an orange community service vest, a ballcap that said 'Life is good' and
running shoes, Wilbanks seemed upbeat as she pushed a powered mower by
a swarm of reporters and photographers. She briefly spoke when the mower's
engine died in some tall grass. 'I'm doing well,' said Wilbanks, who has
been undergoing mental health treatment. She admitted with a laugh that
it had been a long time since she had mowed a lawn." (08/09/05)
In this
case, the woman is paying the price of her stupidity: fortunately, no
one had the gall to put her in jail and leave it up to the taxpayers to
pay twice for her silly escapade. It isn't directly restitution, but "community
service" beats fines and jail time for impressing on people the folly
of their actions.
Canada:
Straight men to marry
Ananova [UK]
"Two heterosexual Canadian men are to tie the knot to enjoy the
tax benefits of being a married couple. Bill Dalrymple, 56, and best friend
Bryan Pinn, 65, are taking advantage of Canada's new same-sex marriage
legislation. 'I think it's a hoot,' Mr. Pinn told the Ottawa Sun. But
the two, both previously married to women, insist there is a serious issue
behind the stunt. 'There are significant tax implications that we don't
think the government has thought through,' Mr. Pinn said. Mr. Dalrymple
has been to see a lawyer already and there are no laws in marriage that
define sexual preference." (08/08/05)
Unintended
consequences? As Pinn said, it's a hoot.
Our
Right to Defend Ourselves
Missouri:
Salvage yard owner says he shot intruder
Kansas City Channel News
"Early Monday morning, a prowler was shot at A/3 Auto Tire and
Wheel at 14th Street and Jackson Avenue -- and it wasn't police doing
the firing. Paul, who asked that his last name not be used, said he couldn't
sleep, so he came into work before dawn. 'I couldn't sleep because they
keep stealing from me down there,' Paul said. 'If you're going to catch
a thief, you have to act like one.' Instead of using the front gate, Paul
climbed through a hole in his chain link fence. 'I went in like an old
rat, just the same way those scumbags do,' Paul said. He soon found himself
face to face with a man who was stealing from Paul's truck. He told KMBC
he fired two warning shots into the air. '(The man) raised his hand up
like he was going to hit me with one of the wrenches he stole out of my
truck,' Paul said. The owner said that's when he fired two shots at the
prowler -- once in the buttocks, the other in the arm." (08/08/05)
It doesn't
say whether the hole was a new one or not - but it must be a new one if
this guy is this dedicated to protecting his property.
Wisconsin:
Area police stand for victim disarmament
Green Bay Press Gazette
"Some local law enforcement agencies are joining the Wisconsin
Anti Violence Effort against a new concealed-carry act even before it's
introduced. 'We are not antigun, anti-hunter or anti-NRA,' Green Bay Police
Chief Craig Van Schyndle said at a press event held by WAVE at the Brown
County Courthouse in Green Bay. 'This is an officer-safety issue and a
community-safety issue. Green Bay, Appleton and Brown County are very
safe communities, and concealed carry is a very dangerous proposition.'"
(08/09/05)
They must
be "anti-common sense" since concealed carry has been shown,
time after time, to make communities safer still. Of course, we are talking
the German-Nordic sheep state here, AND a state where the legislature
has shown, time after time, that they believe acts of the legislature
trump physical laws.
Texas:
Ex-husband shot breaking through door
News Journal
"A 41-year-old man was shot to death early Sunday morning when
he tried to break into the house where his ex-wife was staying with another
man. Chief Deputy Miguel Larsen of the Titus County Sheriff's Office said
officers found William Joe Baker lying on the front porch of Marty Crocker's
residence on County Road 3435. According to a news release, Baker went
to Crocker's home seeking his ex-wife, Anita Baker, 41. Crocker called
the police, saying that William Baker was hitting the door and threatening
to kill them. ... She and William Baker had been divorced almost a year,
he said. While deputies were en route to the scene, Larsen said the emergency
call was disconnected. Crocker called back moments later and told the
dispatcher he had fired his semiautomatic rifle multiple times through
the door, hitting Baker in the head." (08/08/05)
As bad
as divorce is, it was none of his business. At the same time, I don't
think she's done much better: this guy fired his semi-auto RIFLE multiple
times through the door? A little training would be in order, and remind
me to stay away from CR 3435!
Mama's
Note: Look for this kind of thing to get worse and worse. The divorce
rate is climbing and the current insane state of injustice has these men
desperate and very angry. They are stripped of their property, earnings,
children and any incentive at all to live in many cases. Take
a look at this article, and some others on Ed
Ward's archives. It's a national crisis and shame. Of course the violence
can't be condoned, but neither can the injustices.
Washington:
Officials back shooting range
Everett Daily Herald
"The owners of the Kenmore Gun Range property shouldn't be pressured
into building hundreds of homes or condos, despite occupying 80 tempting
acres of mostly vacant urban land, county officials said. Instead, it
should remain an oasis for shooters surrounded by hundreds of homes on
culs-de-sac in the county's urban core between Bothell and Brier. 'We
promised we would be an outdoor recreation area forever,' said Vic Alvarez,
a board member of Wildlife Committee of Washington, which owns the gun
club. 'We provide a very necessary service not only to law enforcement
and the military but to the community.'" (08/09/05)
The safety
zone for a firing range should NEVER be considered "vacant land."
I am glad, especially in Washington State (well-known for its love of
theft-by-government), that there are officials who recognize this fact.
Kansas:
Man, 71, says he shot burglar
Kansas City Star [registration required, or use login "info@news-digests.com/news-digests"]
"A 71-year-old Leavenworth man told police Monday that he shot
a man who had broken into his home. The homeowner, who lives in the 1100
block of Pawnee Street, told police that he heard someone breaking into
his home about 8 a.m. Monday .... The homeowner told police he fired shots
at the man, who fled out the door. ... Kitchens said the Leavenworth County
attorney would determine whether charges would be filed against the suspect.
Prosecutors could also consider charges against the homeowner, Kitchens
said, although the decision to use deadly force could be justified if
the suspect was committing an aggravated burglary." (08/09/05)
In this
case, the "suspect" is the housebreaker, not the home-defender.
Good for the authorities of Leavenworth County. Of course, with the constellation
of prisons (including the infamous military Disciplinary Barracks) in
the county, this kind of common sense is needed. It is a nice place to
live, but does have its risks.
Mama's
Note: Wait a minute! All burglary is aggravating. How's he supposed to
know what an "aggravated burglary" is in the first place. I
sure don't. And why should it make any difference? They don't sound so
"common sense" to me if there is any chance the homeowner will
be charged with anything.
Government-Ruined,
Theft-Funded Schools
Arizona:
Laws cut school control at local level
Arizona Republic
"There was a time when your locally elected school board members
had the last word on what and how your child was taught, how the district's
money was spent, who graduated from high school, how teachers were trained,
and who was hired or fired. Not any more. Arizona built its education
system on 'local control.' Once powerful and independent governing boards
firmly directed each of the state's more than 220 districts and were answerable
mainly to district voters. But new federal and state laws swept in a massive
reform movement and swept away much of that power and independence."
(08/09/05)
Ignoring
wisdom, common sense, and constitutional issues - and stealing the future
of their children as well as their school lands and buildings and money.
Imploding
Demoncrats, Exploding GOP'pers
Dean:
Democrats must take offensive
Raleigh News & Observer
"Howard Dean gives Republicans credit for one thing: They have
put the Democrats on the defensive and forced them to fight on their turf.
That, he said, is about to change. ... Dean detailed his 50-state strategy
to hire and finance from national coffers organizers in every state, saying
that the party is on track to have organizers in every state by the end
of the year. 'Vote by vote, precinct by precinct, door by door, year by
year and election by election, we will take this country back for the
people who built it,' he said." (08/09/05)
Well, they
are pretty offensive, right now! More seriously, I still think that the
GOP, especially in Congress, is still on the defensive - mentally, at
least. If the Dems are having to rebuild their political grassroots, I
suspect that they will find the same problem other activists have: people
are giving up on electoral politics. And they will also have their faces
rubbed into the fact that as far away from the national mood that the
GOP is, the liberalism of the Democrats is still farther out - and only
if they change will they find it possible to win again.
New
York fell for her, but will US voters?
Christian Science Monitor
"To some voters, she is a ruthless Machiavelli-in-a-pantsuit who
will do anything to resume residence at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. To others,
she is the brilliant and inspiring golden girl, poised to make history
as America's first female president. Nearly all Americans have an opinion
about Hillary Rodham Clinton, the junior senator from New York, and if
she runs for president, as expected, she will begin her quest for the
Democratic nomination well ahead of her rivals. On one point, still with
2-1/2 years to go before the first caucuses or primaries, political analysts
agree: The nomination is hers to lose." (08/09/05)
CSM doing
its usual commentary-as-news garbage: with Dean and Clinton in charge,
the future is a disaster, but whether it is for the Democratic Party or
the whole nation and world is still a question to be answered.
Mama's
Note: It's hard to imagine that anyone could forget that this woman trashed
and robbed the White House, after all those years of dirty tricks and
lies. Some people will fall for anything, won't they?
Poll:
Giuliani first choice, Frist 4th for GOP nomination
Tennessean
"Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist is in the middle of the pack
of prospective 2008 Republican presidential candidates, according to a
USA Today-CNN-Gallup Poll released yesterday. Frist, from Tennessee, has
not said whether he will seek the White House in '08, but he has visited
the early primary state of New Hampshire twice this year, and he and his
allies are not discouraging speculation that he will run. With the first
primary and caucus still more than two years off, the new poll -- taken
Friday through Sunday -- provides only a rough barometer of a race no
one has officially entered. Among registered Republicans polled, Frist
was fourth of nine potential candidates measured, with 9%. ... Former
New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani was first, with 27%, followed by Arizona
Sen. John McCain -- who lost to President Bush in the 2000 primaries --
with 24%. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice was third with 19%."
(08/09/05)
Gee, what
a set of choices! No wonder so many people think Hillary has a chance!
Imperial
Courts, Worldwide
Pro-choice
group hits Roberts in ad
Washington Times
"NARAL Pro-Choice America [Monday] began airing nationwide a TV
advertisement criticizing federal Judge John G. Roberts Jr.'s involvement
in an abortion case. The spot, part of a $500,000 campaign, is the first
major advertisement that is explicitly critical of President Bush's Supreme
Court nominee, accusing him of aiding an abortion-clinic bomber. 'We believe
in a culture of personal freedom and personal responsibility,' said NARAL
President Nancy Keenan. 'As an advocacy organization, it is our job to
let the American people know that John Roberts' record demonstrates hostility
toward these core values.' Republican National Committee Chairman Ken
Mehlman called the ad 'false and outrageous.'" (08/09/05)
Just proving
that NARAL is as hypocritical as anyone in government.
Roberts
deferential to other branches
Washington Times
"Supreme Court nominee John G. Roberts Jr. consistently deferred
to the legislative and executive branches in his two years on the nation's
second-most powerful federal court. Judge Roberts was sworn in to the
U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia in 2003 and
has been involved in nearly 200 decisions. Almost all of those were unanimous
findings by a three-judge panel. But when the judges split, Judge Roberts
sided with the court's conservatives only slightly more often than with
its liberals. And a review of his 48 written opinions by The Washington
Times shows a judge who gives the executive branch wide latitude, as long
as officials don't act capriciously, and one who takes seriously the directions
given to judges by Congress." [FND editor's note: The question
would seem to lie in how clearly Roberts defines "act capriciously!"
- SAT] (08/09/05)
I thought
that there was no "paper trail" for this guy: 200 decisions
doesn't seem much like "no trail." This would seem to indicate
why Bush would choose him, if this evaluation is accurate. Of course,
I'd not count on that!
UK:
Judges say new drink laws are lunacy
Guardian [UK]
"Town and city centres will be turned into the equivalent of violent
drink-fuelled Mediterranean holiday hotspots if the government insists
on liberalising Britain's licensing laws, senior judges and police officers
warned yesterday. A report from senior judges in England and Wales told
the Home Office to expect a big increase in rapes, domestic violence and
serious assaults as a result of the new law allowing 24-hour drinking,
which comes into force in November." (08/10/05)
"The
sky is falling," or would it be "The dyke is leaking" or
"The wolf is attacking," instead? It may well be that the opposite
will happen: that people will drink themselves into a stupor, and not
tank up at "Last Call" then go out and take out their frustrations
on someone else because they can't get a drink.
General
News
UK:
License plates get chipped
Wired
"The British government is preparing to test new high-tech license
plates containing microchips capable of transmitting unique vehicle identification
numbers and other data to readers more than 300 feet away. Officials in
the United States say they'll be closely watching the British trial as
they contemplate initiating their own tests of the plates, which incorporate
radio frequency identification, or RFID, tags to make vehicles electronically
trackable. ... Active RFID is already enjoying limited use on U.S. roadways.
Under a new program, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security is issuing
RFID tags to foreign freight and passenger vehicles as they enter the
country." (08/09/05)
US highways
are using it for toll roads, or by private contractors to keep track of
their own vehicles, NOT for police surveillance. If you thought identity
theft was bad now.
Massachusetts:
Bill seeks to restrict eminent domain
Boston Globe
"A bipartisan group of state lawmakers, spurred by a recent US
Supreme Court ruling, is pushing a measure designed to curb the power
of Massachusetts cities and towns to take private property to make way
for private economic development. The move will face strong resistance
from local leaders and agencies such as the Boston Redevelopment Authority,
who fear that restricting the power of eminent domain will hamper their
efforts to rejuvenate rundown neighborhoods. In Massachusetts, cities
and towns can generally force the sale of private property to promote
economic development if they can show that the development will benefit
the public through job creation or expansion of the tax base." (08/09/05)
We've talked
about other efforts like this - MA is one of the worst in the nation for
this kind of theft by government, and it will be an uphill battle. Ending
Eminent Domain is the only way to stop it: restrictions will just have
too many loopholes to do any good.
New
Mexico: Lab error spreads nuclear material
San Francisco Chronicle
"The apparent mishandling of a potentially hazardous radioactive
substance by an employee of the University of California-run Los Alamos
National Laboratory has resulted in contamination of sites in four states,
according to a report released Monday. Traces of the substance have been
found in homes in Colorado and Kansas that the Los Alamos employee visited,
his own home in New Mexico, and also at the Pennsylvania laboratory where
the employee apparently shipped a contaminated package via FedEx. Los
Alamos doctors are monitoring the health of the employee and five lab
colleagues who might have been contaminated by the substance, radioactive
americium-241. So far, none show ill effects, lab officials said Monday."
(08/09/05)
I consider
this to be more of a scare than a serious problem, but it is clear that
people are panicking over it. Yes, it is just what we expect from the
government or the contractors of government. And yes, hazardous materials
are serious business, and it is important to handle them properly. But
that said, we are not going to have people dying of radiation poisoning
or getting cancer faster in any degree that can be traced precisely to
this failure.
Google
says Cnet googled too far
San Francisco Chronicle
"Googling someone -- a prospective job candidate, a teenage crush,
your son's soccer coach -- is a commonplace ritual of modern life. But
the search engine company evidently doesn't appreciate a taste of its
own medicine. Google has blackballed online technology news service Cnet
News.com for googling Eric Schmidt, CEO of the Mountain View company,
and including some personal information about him in a story last month.
Google told a Cnet editor that it will not speak with Cnet reporters until
August 2006, according to Jai Singh, editor in chief of Cnet News.com
in San Francisco. 'We published a story that recounted how we found information
on the (Google) CEO in a public forum using their service,' Singh said.
'They had issue with the fact that they felt it was private information
and our point is it was public information obtained through public channels
using Google search.'" (08/09/05)
It seems
to me that Herr Schmidt was hoist by his own petard. And I've scant sympathy
for Google, which censors such words as "freedom" for Chinese
users.
US
identifies remains of Vietnam MIAs
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
"The remains of 12 servicemen listed as missing in action during
the Vietnam War have been identified and are returning home, 37 years
after they died in a fierce battle near the Laos-Vietnam border, the Defense
Department announced Tuesday. The 11 Marines and one Army soldier are
the largest group of MIAs identified since the war, according to the military."
(08/09/05)
Comfort,
if scant comfort, to their loved ones. And still far too many MIA still
left from the last three or four wars.
