For Netanyahu, to Freeze or Not to Freeze is the Question Posted: 05 Jul 2010 04:42 AM PDT A follow-up to this article will certainly be written after September 25, the cutoff date for the end of the Israeli government's so-called moratorium on settlement construction in the West Bank. For now, however, the question is whether Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will heed to the probable pressure from US President Barack Obama to extend the freeze or will he kowtow to his right-wing ministers and settlers who demand that the freeze end just as Bibi promised?

United We Fall (Full Film) Posted: 04 Jul 2010 11:55 PM PDT A film by Bryan Law and Dan Dicks "United We Fall" is a documentary about the North American Union that is being developed right now between Canada, the United States, and Mexico. For years this topic has been debated in the news and in political circles as being a possible future for North America. In recent years, the mood has shifted and a rift is developing between those who want a Deeply Integrated North American Community, and those who wish to retain their national sovereignty.

TSA To Block Websites With "Controversial Opinions" Posted: 04 Jul 2010 11:27 PM PDT The Transportation Security Administration will block all websites that contain "controversial opinion" from its federal computers in the latest example of how Internet censorship is expanding in both the private and public sector as the federal government prepares to push through a power grab that will empower President Obama to shut down the world wide web with an emergency decree.

'Drug war insurgent' Barry Cooper may face prison for 'false reports' to police Posted: 04 Jul 2010 11:21 PM PDT One former drug cop's crusade of civil disobedience against America's drug war establishment has turned into a nightmare for his family, which now faces the very real threat of losing a father and husband for up to six months or more. Barry Cooper stood handcuffed in front of the state's capitol building on Friday morning, after he'd turned himself in on a warrant for allegedly making a False Report to a Peace Officer. Once one of the Permian Basin Narcotics Task Force's most successful agents, Cooper has refashioned himself an anti-prohibition activist and filmmaker; or, America's "drug war insurgent," as area media declared.

Deficit Hysteria: Wrongheaded in Times of Depression Posted: 04 Jul 2010 09:56 PM PDT When economic stimulus and productive investment are most needed, public spending cuts are coming, G20 governments agreeing to cut deficits and balance budgets, what economist Michael Hudson calls "fiscal suicide, (months into) a carefully orchestrated financial war against the 'real' economy." Begun in Washington, Obama, in his first State of the Union address, announced plans to "freeze government spending for three years," starting in 2011, and said he'll establish a bipartisan fiscal commission by executive order, to cut the deficit by imposed austerity - social spending cuts, including Medicare, not defense, banker bailouts, or other handouts to corporate favorites, how Washington works under both parties, anti-populist by any standard, anti-productive when large stimulus is needed to revive the cratering economy.

Bill Kristol Must Resign! Posted: 04 Jul 2010 06:00 PM PDT Bill Kristol is demanding the head of GOP national chairman Michael Steele, who, in a moment of honesty, questioned the wisdom of invading and occupying Afghanistan. Yet Kristol has never been elected to anything: indeed, the pretentious little gremlin once threatened to quit the GOP, back in the 1990s, when the Republicans in Congress voted to deny funding to Bill Clinton's Balkan adventure. Kristol, who had thrilled at the opportunity to "crush Serb skulls," as he put it, stamped his foot and declared his imminent defection. Too bad he never followed through on his promise. Now he's assuming the mantle of Republican kingmaker: based on his atrocious record as the GOP's grand strategist, it's Kristol, not Steele, who should resign.

The Real Rogue State Posted: 04 Jul 2010 02:22 PM PDT Here's an insane article from some madman at the American Spectator fantasizing about Israel striking Iran. The conclusion is below. "We apparently have lost four F-15s and three F-16s, all to unknown causes.

PCHR is Gravely Concerned by the Continued Summonsing and Detention of Fatah Activists in Gaza Posted: 04 Jul 2010 10:32 AM PDT The Palestinian Centre for Human Rights (PCHR) is grave concerned by and wishes to highlight the repeated summonsing and detention of dozens of Fatah activists by the Internal Security Service (ISS) in Gaza, as well as the confiscation of the passports of some of these activists. PCHR calls upon the government in Gaza to refrain from summonsing Fatah members and detaining them in degrading conditions. PCHR also calls for the immediate release of all the political prisoners.

Laila Faisal – Arab Intellectuals: rise up to the challenge – "Freedom First" Posted: 04 Jul 2010 10:25 AM PDT A nation under occupation cannot afford to stray off its course, neither to the right nor to the left, that is an intellectual luxury it cannot afford. A fight for freedom and independence, such as that of the Palestinians, should not fall into the trap of turning into an internal ideological struggle or a rift inside a besieged – oppressed – cleansed nation.

50 Random Facts That Make You Wonder What In The World Has Happened To America Posted: 04 Jul 2010 06:47 AM PDT Our world is changing at a pace that is so staggering these days that it can be really hard to fully grasp the significance of what we are witnessing.  Hopefully the collection of random facts below will help you to "connect the dots" just a little bit.  On one level, the facts below may not seem related.  However, what they all do have in common is that they show just how much the United States has fundamentally changed.  Do you ever just sit back and wonder what in the world has happened to America?  The truth is that the America that so many of us once loved so much has been shattered into a thousand pieces.

Sunday: 19 Iraqis Killed, 57 Wounded Posted: 04 Jul 2010 04:57 AM PDT As U.S. Vice President Joe Biden met with the two leading contenders for prime minister, several suicide bombers put a damper on the attempt to reconcile the politicians' efforts to hasten the formation of the next government. At least 19 Iraqis were killed and 57 more were wounded across the country. Also, two U.S. soldiers were wounded when their convoy came across a roadside bomb. In Ramadi, a female suicide bomber detonated her explosives at a government compound, in a reception room just outside the governor's office. Four people were killed and at least 38 more were wounded. Many of the victims were police and other security personnel.

How Goldman gambled on starvation Posted: 04 Jul 2010 04:39 AM PDT By now, you probably think your opinion of Goldman Sachs and its swarm of Wall Street allies has rock-bottomed at raw loathing. You're wrong. There's more. It turns out that the most destructive of all their recent acts has barely been discussed at all. Here's the rest. This is the story of how some of the richest people in the world – Goldman, Deutsche Bank, the traders at Merrill Lynch, and more – have caused the starvation of some of the poorest people in the world. It starts with an apparent mystery. At the end of 2006, food prices across the world started to rise, suddenly and stratospherically. Within a year, the price of wheat had shot up by 80 per cent, maize by 90 per cent, rice by 320 per cent. In a global jolt of hunger, 200 million people – mostly children – couldn't afford to get food any more, and sank into malnutrition or starvation. There were riots in more than 30 countries, and at least one government was violently overthrown. Then, in spring 2008, prices just as mysteriously fell back to their previous level. Jean Ziegler, the UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Food, calls it "a silent mass murder", entirely due to "man-made actions."

Dangerous Crossroads in World History: Obama's New Iran Sanctions: An Act of War Posted: 04 Jul 2010 04:36 AM PDT When the UN refused to agree to the severe sanctions that the U.S. wanted, Obama responded with typical Bush flair and went solo. The new U.S. sanctions against Iran — signed into law by Obama on July 1st — are an unmistakable act of war. If fully enforced, Iran's economy will be potentially destroyed. The New York Times outlines the central parts of the sanctions:

BP, Homeland Security, and Cops Work Together to Deny First Amendment Posted: 04 Jul 2010 03:13 AM PDT The father of fascism, Benito Mussolini, defined fascism as corporatism. "Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power," said Mussolini. ProPublica and PBS learned this lesson recently in Texas City. "A photographer taking pictures for ProPublica was detained Friday while shooting pictures in Texas City, Texas," reports Raw Story . "The photographer, Lance Rosenfield, said that shortly after arriving in town, he was confronted by a BP security officer, local police and a man who identified himself as an agent of the Department of Homeland Security. He was released after the police reviewed the pictures he had taken on Friday and recorded his date of birth, Social Security number and other personal information."

America's good, subservient press Posted: 04 Jul 2010 03:05 AM PDT Journalists tend to take themselves too seriously, and their craft not seriously enough. So it is apt that some famous and obscure quotations and aphorisms about the value and function of a free press adorn the tiled walls of the restrooms at Rhodes University's African Media Matrix -- the building that houses what is widely considered the continent's top journalism school.

Bilderberg Files Complaint against Dutch Journalist Micha Kat Posted: 04 Jul 2010 02:28 AM PDT Usually Bilderberg stifles journalists who attempt to report on the meetings by ordering the authorities of the country they happen to hold their meetings in to detain them. Remember the famous occasion when Alex Jones was detained for no less than 15 hours by Canadian immigration on orders of the Bilderberg group in June of 2006? How about the harassment experienced by Jim Tucker, Daniel Estulin and countless others, when they attempted to report on the comings and goings of the elitist Bilderbergers?

Jordan is not Palestine Posted: 04 Jul 2010 02:26 AM PDT George Mitchell, the US special envoy to the Middle East, has recently expressed his frustration at the lack of progress in the stalled "peace process". But it may be time for Mitchell to move aside, as Geert Wilders, the leader of the Netherlands' third-largest party, seems to have found a 'creative solution' to the conflict: Jordan should be renamed Palestine and become a homeland for the Palestinians.

What Mainstream Media is Not Telling You about the Gulf Oil Cleanup Posted: 04 Jul 2010 01:22 AM PDT What surface oil dispersant for oil spills is so toxic and ineffective it has been banned in England for a decade? The one that British Petroleum (BP) is using now in the Gulf of Mexico. It's loaded with 2-butoxyethanol, which kills marine and wetland wild life while causing serious lung problems to humans! It is more toxic than the oil it purports to clean, and it simply sends the newly formed toxic globules of dispersant and oil further into the depths where it forms underwater plumes. It's like pouring paint thinner on spilled paint and letting it drip out onto the lawn and garden, except the underwater plumes of thinned oil and toxic dispersant spread onto the shore lines, wetlands and coral reefs and into the Atlantic via the Gulf Stream and beyond.

UK Methodists Boycott Settlement Products Posted: 04 Jul 2010 12:39 AM PDT On Wednesday 30 June 2010, the Methodist Church in the United Kingdom voted to boycott all products from Israeli settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories. The decision, which came during the denomination's annual conference, makes the Methodist Church  the first major Christian denomination in Britain to officially adopt such a policy, according the British news daily The Independent. "This decision has not been taken lightly, but after months of research, careful consideration and finally, today's debate at the Conference. The goal of the boycott is to put an end to the existing injustice. It reflects the challenge that settlements present to a lasting peace in the region," said Christine Elliott, Secretary for External Relationships for the Methodist Church.

Fears over Lebanon confrontations Posted: 03 Jul 2010 11:56 PM PDT A spate of clashes between the UN peacekeeping force in southern Lebanon and local residents has sparked fears that Hezbollah, the Lebanese Shia political party, is unhappy with military exercises being carried out in the area. The past two weeks have seen a series of confrontations between villagers and Unifil peacekeepers in the south of the country, where Israel fought a devastating month-long war against the Hezbollah in 2006.

How To Win The War Against Israel? Truth Or Consequences Posted: 03 Jul 2010 11:06 PM PDT The Middle East, being one of the troubled spots in the world without a peaceful resolution, remains a major concern and a real threat to world peace today. As a youngster growing up in Palestine, I remember my father often talked about his lost home in Jerusalem. He often reminiscence about how his home was illegally taken over by the European Jewish settlers.

Israel's Attack on Egypt in '67 was not 'Preemptive' Posted: 03 Jul 2010 09:40 PM PDT It is often claimed that Israel's attack on Egypt that began the June 1967 'Six Day War' was a 'preemptive' one. Implicit in that description is the notion that Israel was under imminent threat of an attack from Egypt. Yet this historical interpretation of the war is not sustained by the documentary record.

Emergency S.O.S.: America Falling to Foreign Bank Takeover – Fourth of July Posted: 03 Jul 2010 09:31 PM PDT Alex Jones breaks down the takeover by offshore banking powers– newly empowered by Congress' banking "reform," expanded taxes worldwide, as well as accelerated moves towards ending the Dollar's reserve status, including urging from a recent United Nations report.

Israel's anti-boycott legislation Posted: 03 Jul 2010 09:27 PM PDT Israel has initiated strong legislative measures to combat the growing momentum in support of the Palestinian-led Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israeli policies. The Land of Israel lobby, the Knesset's largest lobby, recently promulgated the "Prohibition on Instituting a Boycott Bill" which, if passed, will criminalize any call for an economic or academic boycott of Israel , and Education Minister Gideon Sa'ar has said that the government will begin taking action against academics joining the call for boycott.

A Rift in Relations: Israel vs. Turkey Posted: 03 Jul 2010 08:42 PM PDT Speaking in Toronto, during the G20 Summit, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that 'his country has closed its airspace to some Israeli military flights.' Turkish officials said that the ban would not affect commercial flights and that 'each flight request would be assessed case by case.' But since "military planes are required to obtain overflight permission before each flight," the ban already affected at least one military plane that was denied permission immediately after it took effect. On Sunday, Israeli newspaper Yediot Aharonot reported that "Turkey had barred a jet carrying Israeli military officers en route to a tour of memorial sites in Auschwitz … to fly over Turkish airspace." As a result, the aircraft with more than 100 officers on board "was forced to make a detour to reach its destination." Even though the IDF refrained from commenting on the incident, the "rift in relations" between Turkey and Israel occurred after its raid of the Freedom Flotilla and its lead ship Mavi Marmara.

Time to Muzzle Israel Posted: 03 Jul 2010 08:39 PM PDT The bloody and dastardly attack, by Israeli forces, in international waters, under cover of darkness, on a peaceful and unarmed flotilla, carrying nothing but humanitarian aid to a besieged people experiencing a humanitarian crisis, was strongly denounced by people and governments from all over the world. Deservedly so.

Israel Restricts Internationals' Movement Posted: 03 Jul 2010 08:19 PM PDT Encircling and closing the Bethlehem district and banning international workers, visitors and activists from the West Bank seem to be the purpose of new Israeli regulations concerning the passage and entrance to the checkpoints separating the Bethlehem area and Jerusalem areas. At the beginning of last week, Israeli soldiers at the Masmuria checkpoint stopped an international NGO worker, who possesses a regular working visa, for inspection and prevented the international from reaching Jerusalem, adding that from that moment Gilo checkpoint near Rachel's Tomb would be the sole way to enter Israel. Moreover, since December 2009, internationals have not been permitted to cross from Beit Jala through the checkpoint to Jerusalem on Palestinian buses. A number of internationals have reported being pulled off the No. 21 bus line by Israeli soldiers.

Israeli demolitions in Jordan Valley Posted: 03 Jul 2010 07:48 PM PDT 12 shelters were demolished by the Israeli army on Thursday 1 July, in the village of Khirbeit ar Ras Al Ahmar in the Tubas Governorate. The shelters were used primarily for animals and belonged to 12 families (72 people) from the village. 5 of the families received eviction orders on June 6th, when the Israeli military issued evacuation orders to 9 families in the Jordan Valley village The families were given orders instructing them to leave the area, and remove homes, animal shelters, and livestock within the following 24 hours. The families were warned that if they did not comply with the military orders, that their animals would be confiscated and they would be forced to pay the expenses of the confiscation. The other demolitions were following orders given to the families in June of last year.

Brother Foggy Mountain Breakdown Posted: 03 Jul 2010 06:58 PM PDT The only green mountain party boy I ever knew —  sat beside me on a pew.  He was too young for the kind of damage Daddy worried about.  Still fighting his way out of Momma's Kool-Aid kitchen when we met.  Barely out of diapers yet.  Shaking off the baby fat from her biscuits and Rice Krispy squares.  Puberty caught us unawares.

Saturday: 4 Iraqis Wounded Posted: 03 Jul 2010 01:46 PM PDT Vice President Joe Biden made an unannounced trip to Iraq to encourage officials to end an impasse preventing a new prime minister from taking office. Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki met Biden, but separately also met with a congressional committee to reassure them of progress in that selection. Also, at least four Iraqis were wounded in light violence. In Mosul, a policeman was injured in a blast. Three Naqshabandiya Army members were captured.

FBI Make-Work Posted: 03 Jul 2010 11:17 AM PDT Alexander Cockburn at Counterpunch makes the case that this sexy Russian spy story is much to do about nothing. There's been ripe chortling about the spy network run in the U.S.A. by the Russian SVR – successor to the KGB in the area of foreign intelligence. The eleven accused were supposedly a bunch of bumblers so deficient in remitting secrets to Moscow across nearly a decade that the FBI can't even muster the evidence to charge them with espionage. The ten who have been arrested are accused of conspiracy to act as agents of a foreign government without notifying the U.S. attorney general, which is what lobbyists here do if they are working for, say, Georgia or China. Their filings are available for public review at the Commerce Department. If the Russians are convicted, they could be sentenced up to five years in prison.

Zio-American exiles speak out: Debunking the War on Terror Posted: 03 Jul 2010 08:02 AM PDT The forthcoming "Debunking the War on Terror" symposium in London brings together four of the most outspoken and eloquent challengers to the Zio-American imperial order that has emerged post-September 11th. While most of the left and antiwar movements have chosen to remain "loyal opposition," each of these four individuals has gone one step further, by challenging the very roots of the mainstream Western consensus and accepting the physical, professional or intellectual exile that ensues. If the consensus is starting to shift, it is due in large part to such bold challenges as these.

Ron Paul: Washington DC Out of Touch with The American People Posted: 03 Jul 2010 07:19 AM PDT Ron Paul's attempt to audit the Federal Reserve, which was previously co-sponsored by 320 members of the House (HR 1207), failed by a vote of 229-198. All Republicans voted in favor of the measure with 23 Democrats crossing the aisle to vote with Republicans. 122 co-sponsors of HR 1207, all Democrats, jumped ship and voted against the measure. The GOP had offered the Fed audit as the minority's last chance to alter the financial regulation bill. The bill does have an watered-down audit provision in the conference report, but it is limited to loans made by the Fed during the height of the economic crisis. Ron Paul's bill would have allowed a total examination of the Fed's books. www.ronpaul.com www.infowars.com www.prisonplanet.tv

Banks Financing Mexico Gangs Admitted in Wells Fargo Deal Posted: 03 Jul 2010 05:16 AM PDT Michael Smith Bloomberg June 29, 2010 Just before sunset on April 10, 2006, a DC-9 jet landed at the international airport in the port city of Ciudad del Carmen, 500 miles east of Mexico City. As soldiers on the ground approached the plane, the crew tried to shoo them away, saying there was a dangerous oil leak. So the troops grew suspicious and searched the jet. They found 128 black suitcases, packed with 5.7 tons of cocaine, valued at $100 million. The stash was supposed to have been delivered from Caracas to drug traffickers in Toluca, near Mexico City, Mexican prosecutors later found. Law enforcement officials also discovered something else. The smugglers had bought the DC-9 with laundered funds they transferred through two of the biggest banks in the US: Wachovia Corp. and Bank of America Corp., Bloomberg Markets magazine reports in its August 2010 issue.

Chuck Baldwin: FEC Attempts to Shut Down Campaign for Liberty Posted: 03 Jul 2010 05:16 AM PDT FEC Attempts to Shut Down Campaign for Liberty chuckbaldwinlive.com Campaign for Liberty June 30, 2010 Dear Liberty Activist, The FEC has launched a pair of investigations on Campaign for Liberty. Both are meritless, but could seriously disrupt our growing program. Please read Campaign for Liberty President John Tate's letter below and stand with us. This is exactly the type of government action to quell liberty that I have spent my life opposing. Sincerely, Congressman Ron Paul — Dear Friend of Liberty, The best way to know you are succeeding in changing Washington is when you get attacked by the FEC. And attack us they have! I'm writing you this letter today not to scare you or to cry wolf. I'm writing to let you know that our success has its price, and that price right now is the wrath of the Obama Administration and its attack dogs at the Federal Election Commission. I urge you to read this message and then sign the Declaration of Support (in which I ask for your advice on a critical legal and moral question), as we are forced into battle with federal agencies and courts. You see, this isn't theoretical. They've already come after us in multiple cases, alleging that Campaign for Liberty has acted illegally merely by putting the candidates on the record and reporting their positions. My attorneys tell me we are under a gag rule and cannot go in to too many details or even tell you with what we have been charged and where the charges originated.

Emergency SOS: America Falling to Foreign Bank Takeover - Fourth of July Posted: 02 Jul 2010 09:22 PM PDT Alex Jones breaks down the takeover by offshore banking powers-- newly empowered by Congress' banking "reform," expanded taxes worldwide, as well as accelerated moves towards ending the Dollar's reserve status, including urging from a recent United Nations report. This Fourth of July, the United States is indeed in peril; it is not only the Gulf Oil Spill, Russian spies and threats of war with Iran which Americans must worry about. Instead it is the quiet but deadly conquest by private, central banks, who lobbied Congress to once again vest new powers in the Federal Reserve and, by all indicators, further weaken the US economy through its future actions. The financial crisis has indeed been developed in such a way that no nation can ever repay all the debt, and control by global economic forces is all but inevitable. "This is as big as World War I or World War II," Alex Jones comments. "What is happening now is bigger than the banking takeover of 1913... it is a worldwide financial coup d'etat."

Afghanistan War: Why Are We Doing It? Posted: 02 Jul 2010 06:00 PM PDT Statement in the House by Rep. Tim Johnson of Illinois on funding the war in Afghanistan. I stand in opposition to this rule and in sincere but deep opposition to this $63 billion massive spending bill, and particularly the war spending component of the bill.

The Stray Bullet Theory Posted: 02 Jul 2010 06:00 PM PDT Since the invasion of Afghanistan for the purpose of overthrowing its government, I have wondered what to call the stupidity of the operative theory. There is no superior strategy for getting Bin Laden than the strategy of getting Bin Laden.  Anything other than that is hoping he will be hit by a stray bullet.

Outgoing UN Nuclear Inspector Pushed Dubious Iran Nuclear Weapons Intel Posted: 02 Jul 2010 05:38 PM PDT Olli Heinonen, the Finnish nuclear engineer who resigned Thursday after five years as deputy director for safeguards of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), was the driving force in turning that agency into a mechanism to support U.N. Security Council sanctions against Iran. Heinonen was instrumental in making a collection of intelligence documents showing a purported Iranian nuclear weapons research program the central focus of the IAEA's work on Iran. The result was to shift opinion among Western publics to the view that Iran had been pursuing a covert nuclear weapons program.

The Red Mosque Was Pakistan's Waco Posted: 02 Jul 2010 01:24 PM PDT Pakistani authorities now believe a dangerous new militant group [the Ghazi Force], out to avenge a deadly army assault on a mosque in Islamabad three years ago, has carried out several major bombings in the capital previously blamed on the Taliban," reports Kathy Gannon for the Associated Press. "The emergence of the Ghazi Force was part of the outrage among many deeply religious Pakistani Muslims over the July 2007 attack by security forces against the Lal Masjid, or Red Mosque, a stronghold of Islamic militants. … The new group is made up of relatives of students who died in the Red Mosque assault. It is named after the students' leader, Maulana Abdul Rashid Ghazi, who was also killed."

Disagreements Remain Between Israel and the U.S. -- Israel's Settlements Foremost Among Them Posted: 02 Jul 2010 10:12 AM PDT Just days before a scheduled fence-mending visit to Washington by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, I received an email from the Jerusalem Post that invited me to move to territory that most of the world considers occupied Arab land.

Friday: 2 US Soldiers, 5 Iraqis Killed; 7 Iraqis Wounded Posted: 02 Jul 2010 05:05 AM PDT Updated at 6:05 p.m. EDT, July 2, 2010 Five Iraqis were killed and seven more were wounded in light violence, but battles between Turkish troops and PKK rebels based in northern Iraq heated up. Meanwhile, two U.S. soldiers were killed in separate non-combat incidents.

Friday Fun: Imams Gone Wild Posted: 02 Jul 2010 12:56 AM PDT At Psychology Today, Molly Castelloe points out: "The blogosphere is abuzz with a recent breast-feeding fatwa or religious ruling in the Saudi world. Sheik Abdel Mohsen Obeikan, a scholar and consultant at Saudi Arabia's royal court, called for women to give breast milk to their drivers and male coworkers in order to avoid illicit mixing of the sexes. Yes, you heard me. [Emphasis added] According to conservative Islamic tradition, if a woman breast-feeds a man five times they are considered "relatives" rather than potential lovers. They are therefore allowed to intermingle or be alone together. This milk-relationship permits other familiarities normally forbidden between an unmarried man and woman: the woman can also remove her veil and reveal her hair.
