Ahmadinejad Calls 9/11 "Big Fabrication"

“(Reuters) – Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Saturday called the September 11 attacks on the United States a “big fabrication” that was used to justify the U.S. war on terrorism, the official IRNA news agency reported. Ahmadinejad, who often rails against the West and Israel, made the comment in a meeting with Intelligence Ministry personnel. Ahmadinejad described the destruction of the twin towers in New York on September 11, 2001 as a “complicated intelligence scenario and act,” IRNA reported. He added: “The September 11 incident was a big fabrication as a pretext for the campaign against terrorism and a prelude for staging an invasion against Afghanistan.” He did not elaborate. In January, Ahmadinejad termed the September 11 attacks “suspicious” and accused the West of seeking to dominate the Middle East.” more at link… Ahmadinejad=crazy like a fox? Its funny how, Iran, a country that hasn't invaded another country in over 200 years is evil, yet the US military has the country surrounded in Iraq and Afghanistan (all started after 9/11 conveniently). The US is currently dropping drone bombs on villages at 3 times the rate of the Bush administration. Iran's major conflicts occurred internally when the CIA funded coups attempted to overthrow their gov't and when the US armed Saddam Hussein, our former ally in the 80s, to go to war with Iran in the 80s. Even today, the CIA uses Jundallah, a front terror group to carry out attacks on the Iranian National Guard. Translation note: Ahmadinejad never called for Israel “to be wiped off the map,” actually, the line goes more like, “the Occupation regime must end.” Similar translation errors have been exploited, such as the “Death to America” chant that Dick Cheney used so well build up support for war. The real translation is “Down with America,” a little different and less inflammatory. Don't believe the hype, they're going to provocateur an event to instigate war with Iran. It has to be something that makes it look like the US is in the right, justifying the war, when most likely, it'll be a staged-false flag terror attack, just like 9/11, Gulf of Tonkin, the Maine, the Lusitania, Pearl Harbor, the Reichstag…I can go back to Roman times if you want b/c it ain't new. added by: rodstradamus

Neda video wins Polk journalism award

It's the first time the prestigious Polk award has been given in anonymity and the first award for videography. From their site ( http://www.brooklyn.liu.edu/polk/press/2009.html ): “The George Polk Award for Videography will recognize the efforts of the people responsible for recording the death of 26-year-old Neda Agha-Soltan at a June protest in Tehran, Iran, and uploading the video to the Internet. Ms. Agha-Soltan reportedly was shot by a pro-government militiaman. The video, which shows the woman collapsing to the ground and being attended to by several men as she lay dying on the street, became a rallying point for the reformist opposition in Iran after it was broadcast over the Internet. Seen by millions as it spread virally across the Web, the images quickly gained the attention of international media.” Is it representative of the death of professional journalism? I don't think so. It was professional journalists who put this video clip into context for us. Who told Neda Agha Soltan's story. Who have done exemplary and dogged work documenting on-going brutality from the Iranian regime. This award, however, is a recognition of how many of the most powerful and influential moments and images in journalism today come not from professional journalists but from ordinary people in extraordinary situations. Warning: This video is extremely graphic. added by: afitzgerald

US speeding up missile defenses in Persian Gulf

The Obama administration is accelerating the deployment of new defenses against possible Iranian missile attacks in the Persian Gulf, placing special ships off the Iranian coast and antimissile systems in at least four Arab countries, according to administration and military officials. The deployments come at a critical turning point in President Obama’s dealings with Iran. After months of unsuccessful diplomatic outreach, the administration is trying to win broad international consensus for sanctions against the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps, which Western nations say control a covert nuclear arms program.

Their length and intensity evoked the summer’s daily protests that were only suppressed after the government killed at least 11 demonstrators on one day in late June. But the past several days have witnessed an unprecedented widening in the scope of protests across the country.

U.N. nuclear chief pushes Iran on deal

BERLIN (Reuters) – The U.N. nuclear watchdog chief urged Iran on Friday to accept an offer to process its enriched uranium abroad by the end of 2009, and advised Western powers not to impose further sanctions on Tehran. Mohamed ElBaradei, director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency, said a plan brokered by the IAEA in which Iran would send low-enriched uranium to Russia and France for conversion into fuel for a Tehran medical reactor was a rare chance to defuse mistrust over its nuclear program.

Latoya Jackson is Some Kind of Monster I Wanna Bang of the Day

There comes a point in every chronic masturbater’s life where porn just doesn’t work anymore. That’s when people turn to freakish shit, whether it is joining the boy scouts as a team leader to see little boys naked, or sitting on public transit all day waiting for the school girls to get out of class to expose themselves to them.
