Here's a story that the mainstream news has seemed to have missed.
But yet they can manage to milk this insignificant Teddy bear story to death!

"Thousands" Illegally Rendered By Bush Administration for Interrogation, Torture


by Massachusetts School of Law

Global Research, November 29, 2007
Massachusetts School of Law Report

In violation of international and U.S. law, "thousands" of alleged terrorists have been victims of "extraordinary rendition" by the Bush Administration since 9/11, two legal scholars say. "Instead of working to bring those committing crimes against the United States to justice in U.S. courts, the Bush Administration seems intent on doing exactly the opposite---keeping such individuals away from U.S. courts, hidden in a web of secret prisons, underground interrogation cells, and in the hands of cooperative governments," write Margaret Satterthwaite and Angela Fisher. Satterthwaite is an assistant professor of clinical law at NYU School of Law and Fisher served as assistant research scholar with the Center for Human Rights and Global Justice.

Is this what news has come to?
It is either fluff or fear. Or Fear mixed with fluff. Or Fluff mixed with fear.
who really gives a shit what some backward third world country does.
China has millions of children working for slave wages, and they sell their shitty goods at WallMart. China harvests human organs on demand for the west from condemned prisoners.
Russia has nukes, and Putin is building up his military.
They US owes trillions $ in debt to Russia and China.
But the US media wants you to focus on this little back water country over a misunderstanding about a teddy bear.
Oh yeah! And the North American Union doesn't exist either.
But hey! Its super bowl play offs or what ever the fuck it is. So crack a beer, focus on the boob tube and let those megahertz wash over your alpha waves and lull yourself into a nice relaxing, hypnotic state of suggestability.

"GO BUCKS!!!"


ROTFLMAO!

Funny Flag

The Bucks stop here!

Um ..... I think maybe we are taling about two different things, which makes this even funnier.

One of the things my mum said today was that I don't want any resentment towards Muslims," the son told The Associated Press. "She's holding up quite well."

They've thrown her in jail fer no good reason and instead of lashing out she decides to turn the other cheek.

Christ would approve.

Spud thinks the back story here is the fact that while most of these students at this school are Muslim the staff is largely Christian and the school is financed by same. The Sudanese government and the religious authorities were simply looking fer any flimsy excuse to shut the school down and they have found one.

This making of a mountain outta of a non-existent molehill further underscores the difference between the two religions.

In theory they are both religions of peace.

In practise the Christians have a better track record and the Muslims are more a religion of "cut you to pieces".

Sudan is a third world shit-hole and the anger evinced there is mostly whipped up hysteria.

The reason they are increasingly easy to whip up has to do with the invasion and occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan by wot they rightly see as the "neo-crusaders", the continued and frustration over the seemingly endless Israeli occupation of Palestine and the fact that a US military presence still exists in Sado-Arabia.

America's "solution" to global jihad is really the largest part of the problem but it allows Dumbya to call himself a "war president" and has allowed Cheney to gather hither-to unseen powers to the executive branch. While the corrupt crony capitalist friends of those in power in DC continue to rob Iraq blind they are also robbing the American treasury and undermining every ammendment in the Constitution.

You know, ...the one they are sworn to protect and uphold.

I know it's not the one with "Big Yellow Taxi", but I could listen all day to "Court and Spark". "Raised on Robbery" is one of my all time favorite songs by any artist.


A little money riding on the maple leafs
Along comes a lady in lacy sleeves
She says...
Let me sit down
You know, drinkin alones a shame
Its a shame, its a crying shame
Look at those jokers
Glued to that damn hockey game


You don't know what you've got till it's gone"...

...They paved Paradise and put up a parking lot.

"Court and Spark" is excellent album.
"Raised on Robbery" is also spuddish fave.
See also "Free Man in Paris"
"Clouds" has "Both sides Now" a perrenial fave.
Also the song Chelsea Clinton was named after: "Chelsea Morning"
"Big Yellow Taxi" is offa "Ladies of the Canyon"
Spud luffs and has quoted "Woodstock" from that one before.

We are stardust
Billion year old carbon
We are golden
Caught in the devils bargain
And we've got to get ourselves
Back to the garden


Joni is swell Canuckistani gal!

Be Well.

Spudz is a Loser!!!

The 3rd person crap is tired and old!

Get a real life dumbass!

You opinions are neither funny or well thought out!

Must be something in the air up in Canada that makes you stupid!

JeffnDenmark thinks that Spud is a friendly and non insulting fellow.
JeffnDenmark thinks that there are many more rude and ignorant people on the Drudge that are way higher on the list of deserving attack than Spud.
JeffnDenmark also thinks that anyone that attacks Spud has to much free time on their hands and should maybe find a hobby.
JeffnDenmark also thinks, I'm glad I didn't start writing in the third person on Drudge and get stuck in that shtick.
Maybe Spuds alter ego is Lokisfur, just for a little first person relief?

"The reason they are increasingly easy to whip up has to do with the invasion and occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan by wot they rightly see as the "neo-crusaders",..." Posted by DETHSPUD

You're not really serious, are you? The reason they're all worked up in the Sudan is because of the U.S invading Afghanistan and Iraq??? Hmmm...I seem to remember them being worked up and killing "infidels" enmasse long before Afghanistan and Iraq were invaded. Incidently, I don't think Bush was president while THIS was going on either (1994.) I know he caused 9/11, Katrina, global warming and all sorts of other horrible catastrophies, but don't try to pin this one on him.

Ooops, missed it...This is what "THIS" was supposed to be. Sudanese BEFORE the invasion of Afghanistan or Iraq:

they are worked up because they are flat out of thier fuckin mind....

also it was reported that this demonstration was mainly GOVERNMENT WORKERS who were told to stop work and march in the streets.........
and the british consuls office said they marched RIGHT ON BY THE EMBASSY without stopping......

it was reported in the same article that this bear was named mohammed ON A VOTE BY THE STUDENTS>......why arent they calling for the students to be put to death?
they are more guilty of this socalled heresy than the teacher?????? maybe a case of islamic bullshit???

maybe a case of islamic bullshit???

Not from the religon of peace. Thoes people in the middle east would be nice if we would just leave them alone and let them have everythig they want.

I'm sure that Bush and the evil west was to blame when all thoes camel drivers invaded Europe back in 700AD

amen bro......( it IS sunday you know)..

and today I wonder if the people of venuezuela are voting away thier rights to a dictator who just yesterday said that if he loses, it will be because of interference from the us and he will cut off all oil to the US........and he CONTINUES TO BE THE DARLING OF THE AMERICAN LEFT...........
try and figure THAT ONE out.......

This lawyer should probably shut the hell up. If this woman is going to be pardoned, best to do it on the sly so that the crazies can derail the deal.

That this woman brought her kids to Sudan in the first place is disgraceful. I half think they should be taken away from her.

they are worked up because they are flat out of thier fuckin mind....

Ditto.

Cue incoming end of the universe.

ah good one...

newsflash.,,,,,,,she has been pardoned.......

Now where are we on saving that saudi rape victim from the 200 lashes as the hands of Bush's bestest buddies in the arab world? We're 2-3 (remember the christian our second bestest buddies in the arab world, afghanistan were gonna behead till they decided he was insane?).
Actually 3-4 if you could that Brit, Sampson who the saudis (Bush's bestest friend in the arab world were gonna execute for blowing another ex-pat up to hide the fact it was really a saudi terrorist who did it)

Newswires are reporting that the teacher has been pardoned and is headed home. Which suggests I might owe the Brown government--heretofore an embarrassment--an apology.

We are thinking about getting a miniature pig for a pet.

If and when I do I am naming it Muhammad.

I'm about this close to breaking my lease agreement, getting myself a cat, and naming it "Dirka Dirka Mohammed Jihad". I kid you not.

Letusreason,

But a PIG named mohammed.

Think of the outrage..........

2112-
It's nice that you are doing your part. Have you attached the yellow magnetic ribbon to your car as well?

I stand in awe of the sacrifice of those such as yourself!

In awe.
