| Pakistan bans Youtube for blasphemy Posted: 20 May 2010 12:13 PM PDT  Pakistan has banned the popular video sharing website YouTube indefinitely in a bid to contain "sacrilegious" material, officials have said. The censorship on Thursday came a day after the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) ordered internet service providers to block access to the social network site Facebook because of an online competition to draw the Prophet Mohammed.  |
| Posted: 20 May 2010 11:36 AM PDT  Senior Taliban figures have arrived in the Maldives to take part in unofficial talks aimed at resolving the continuing crisis in Afghanistan. Organisers say that the meeting, which is due to be held on Thursday evening, will include key stakeholders from the three decades of conflict in Afghanistan.  |
| Posted: 20 May 2010 11:05 AM PDT  Thousands of Greek public sector workers are set to march on parliament in the first major anti-austerity rally since three people diedin a massive demonstration earlier this month. Ships will be shut, domestic flights will be disrupted and public services will close as trade unions stage a 24-hour general strike to test the government's resolve to implement reforms aimed at pulling Greece out of its debt crisis.  |
| Posted: 20 May 2010 11:00 AM PDT Before James Angleton became an institution at the CIA as czar of the counterintelligence staff from 1954 to 1975, he was friends with the poet Ezra Pound. Both men sacrificed themselves in an attempt to save their country from plutocrats. Pound did this by speaking his mind, while Angleton sold his conscience for "the greater good." Angleton first met Pound in Rapallo, Italy in 1938. Ezra was often visited by famous or aspiring artists. Then a young man, Angleton photographed Pound at the meeting. Mary Barnard reminisces that these portraits were among the poet's favorites.  |
| Posted: 20 May 2010 10:54 AM PDT Growing interest in English speaking countries for the Italian philosopher Julius Evola may be a sign of the revival of the awesome cultural legacy of the Western civilization (see here and here). This legacy is awkwardly termed the "traditional -revolutionary - elitist - anti-egalitarian - postmodern thought." But why not simply call it classical thought?

| China punishes officials over graft Posted: 20 May 2010 10:43 AM PDT  China has jailed thousands of government officials in a crackdown on corruption, according to authorities. A deputy minister of the ministry of supervision said on Thursday that a total of 3,058 officials, including several mayors, received punishments of up to life in prison for stealing stimulus money or taking bribes for construction projects among other crimes.  |

| The Looming Obamacare Disaster Posted: 20 May 2010 09:50 AM PDT  The Democrats don't seem to have thought out this whole Obamacare business very thoroughly even from the point of view of their own political advantage. It looks like an economic disaster in the making. Who will the public blame when it is almost impossible to get emergency room treatment and ordinary White people start dying because there were too many illegal alien Mexicans in the line ahead of them? In parts of southern Arizona, a number of obstetrics and gynecology clinics had to close because the illegal aliens bankrupted them. A pregnant White American woman would literally be endangering her life if she stayed at her home in certain parts of Arizona due to the long drive necessary to find a clinic that hadn't been put out of business by Mexicans.  |

| Posted: 20 May 2010 09:00 AM PDT  There have been recent reports that Iran has enabled the travel of al-Qaeda leaders to Afghanistan and Pakistan where they will be able to confront and kill American soldiers. If you think you have heard the story before, you have, in another context. In the earlier rendition it was Saddam Hussein who was hand-in-glove with al-Qaeda, helping the group in its nefarious planning to attack the United States and kill Americans. Saddam, who was in reality only a threat to his own people, was on the receiving end of a barrage of fabricated information claiming that he was secretly developing weapons of mass destruction and clandestinely dealing with the terrorists who were responsible for 9/11. Or so the story goes. And now it is Iran's turn and the story and the storytellers are exactly the same.  |
| The Only Democracy in the Middle East? Posted: 20 May 2010 09:00 AM PDT  Noam Chomsky, a fierce espouser of left-wing causes, is widely admired in countries which parade themselves as "democracies." Apparently, the admiration does not extend to Israel. The 81-year-old world famous linguist from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology was denied access to the occupied West Bank when he tried to cross in from Jordan to deliver a lecture at the Palestinian Birzeit University.  |
| Posted: 20 May 2010 09:00 AM PDT The times may be a-changin' — at least a bit — with the United States and Israel no longer able to dictate to the rest of the world how crises in the Middle East must be handled, though the new reality has been slow to dawn on Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and her neocon friends in Congress and the U.S. media. They may think they are still in control, still the smart ones looking down at upstarts like the leaders of Turkey and Brazil who had the audacity to ignore U.S. warnings and press ahead with diplomacy to head off a possible new war, this one over Iran.  |
| Brazil-Turkey Deal with Iran Undermines Big Power Politics Posted: 20 May 2010 09:00 AM PDT When Brazil and Turkey clinched a deal with Iran over its disputed nuclear program last weekend, the two non-permanent members of the Security Council not only challenged the unbridled political power exercised by the five big powers but also jeopardized U.S. plans for a unanimous resolution imposing sanctions against Tehran. As a result, the 15-member Security Council now remains split, with at least two countries — and possibly more — lined up against a U.S.-inspired resolution against Iran.  |
| US Says Only Reason for Talks with Iran Is Enrichment Halt Posted: 20 May 2010 09:00 AM PDT The agreement on draft Security Council resolution sanctions against Iran has grabbed the headlines on the Barack Obama administration's response to Iran's nuclear swap proposal brokered by Turkey and Brazil. But the more consequential response is the acknowledgement by the U.S. State Department Monday that the administration is not willing to hold talks with Iran unless it agrees to a complete halt in uranium enrichment. That announcement was accompanied by the revelation that the objective of the original swap proposal last autumn was to get Iran to agree to eventually to suspend its enrichment program.  |
| Islamic Jihad Leaders Invited To Cairo Posted: 20 May 2010 08:48 AM PDT  A number of political leaders of the Islamic Jihad arrived in Cairo on Wednesday after being invited by the Egyptian Authorities in order to hold talks on Islamic Jihad members who were arrested by Egypt after landing in the country following medical treatment abroad. Sheikh Nafeth Azzam, member of the Political Bureau of the Islamic Jihad, is heading the movements delegation to Egypt. He said that the relations with Egypt are strong |

| Thai government extends curfew Posted: 20 May 2010 08:27 AM PDT  A curfew enforced in Bangkok and 23 other provinces following the country's worst political violence in 20 years has been extended for the next three days, the Thai army has said. The extension comes a day after troops stormed an anti-government protest site in central Bangkok, resulting in the deaths of at least seven people that provoked angry protesters to set alight several buildings across the capital.  |

| Seoul: N Korean torpedo sank ship Posted: 20 May 2010 07:34 AM PDT  The explosion that sank a South Korean navy ship in the disputed Yellow Sea border in March was caused by a torpedo fired by a North Korean submarine, international investigators have announced in Seoul. The team said a marking in Korea's Hangeul script was found on salvaged parts and matched markings on a stray North Korean torpedo recovered by the South seven years ago.  |

| Posted: 20 May 2010 07:00 AM PDT  The block I've lived on these past 35 years is next to what no less a Manhattan authority like Woody Allen has called the most beautiful street in the city. This time of year the elms and poplar trees give my block a country feeling, which for me is as good as it gets. Country living in a city is what it's all about. An English writer once described the place as being without trees, "but as if by a miracle little heaps of twigs and blown leaves gather in the gutters." Looking out my window I wonder what city she was referring to. The Bagel is leafier than London, at least where I live, so there. The copper church roofs glisten at sunset, the lights come on at the Rockefeller Plaza, the lambent air intoxicates, the theatre crowds, the pretty girls in their summer frocks, all give promises of sex and summer. This is Manhattan at its best.  |

| Why I Quit Touring with The Black Eyed Peas Posted: 20 May 2010 06:34 AM PDT  Last year I toured with the Black Eyed Peas on their Japan/Australia run. It was dubbed The E.N.D. - World Tour, which was appropriate. The production is a dazzling metaphor for the end of civilization. As I get older, I frequently find myself forced to compromise my principles—-whether ethical or aesthetic—-for a higher standard of living. My job is to fly lights, sound, and video—-not to judge the artists. My crew chief said this a dozen times. After all, I was paid well, enjoyed fine meals and plush hotel rooms, had fantastic adventures on the streets of Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka, Melbourne, and Auckland, and I only had to wear a BEP t-shirt one time—-when my laundry was dirty. Still, the damage is evident.  |

| The Heresy Of The Greeks Offers Hope Posted: 20 May 2010 03:52 AM PDT 
As Britain's political class pretends that its arranged marriage of Tweedledee to Tweedledum is democracy, the inspiration for the rest of us is Greece. It is hardly surprising that Greece is presented not as a beacon but as a "junk country" getting its comeuppance for its "bloated public sector" and "culture of cutting corners" (the Observer). The heresy of Greece is that the uprising of its ordinary people provides an authentic hope unlike that lavished upon the warlord in the White House.  |

On the face of it, Chomsky's border incident shouldn't take us by surprise. Israel is the Jewish state and as such it operates as a synagogue of great magnitude. The synagogue is an exclusive entity, it only allows in those who fit. The synagogue is neither democratic nor liberal, it is actually subject to tribal judgments that have very little to do with ethics or universalism.  |

| Posted: 19 May 2010 11:45 PM PDT  Last Easter, as the rains subsided in the Peruvian Amazon, the rivers and roads opened up and campaign season began. "There are two groups fighting for control of our land," one aspirant told a crowded plaza halfway through Good Friday celebrations in Imacita, a river port deep in the northern jungle. "One represents big business and industry. The other protects the environment and stands up for the poor." The speaker was Joel Shimpukat, a 44 year-old Awajun Indian schoolteacher. This was his first speech in the run up to October's regional elections, in which Shimpukat hopes to capture the district mayor's seat. He alternated between Spanish and his native Awajun for the benefit of a mixed audience, echoing in form and content the bipolar politics that resonate across Peru and most of Latin America. Lambasting the gold mining and oil exploration underway nearby, he finished with a fist in the air: "We must never forget June 5!"  |

| Getting The Military On Our Side? Posted: 19 May 2010 11:08 PM PDT In comments beneath my post yesterday asking whether American was coming apart at the seams, several of those commenting felt it would be critical for Whites to have the military on their side in the event of any attempt by Whites to separate themselves from this sick and dying country. My concern is this, while I have the greatest respect for those currently serving or who have served, in my experience they are often the most radical of the radically racially egalitarian. The reasons for this strike me as fairly commonsensical, as I wrote in my piece "Norming The Exceptional" the vast majority of military folk have very little idea just how much of a role IQ plays in military admissions, here is Steve Sailer making the same point…  |

Iran's Bushehr nuclear plant, which is being built by Russia, is scheduled to begin operating in August regardless of any new sanctions against Tehran. 
As Thailand's army intensifies its crackdown on anti-government protesters in the capital, two more opposition leaders surrender to the country's authorities. 
The interim government in Kyrgyzstan has announced a presidential election in October 2011 as a hike in inter-ethnic violence mars plans for a vote this year. 
With intensifying US pressure on China to raise the value of its yuan, Beijing says it will not succumb to an outside force to revalue its currency. 
A suspected military leader of Spain's Basque separatist movement ETA has been arrested in the southwestern French city of Bayonne. 
The US president has hailed an anti-Iran UN Security Council (UNSC) draft resolution, ignoring Tehran's recent declaration on a nuclear fuel swap deal in Turkey. 
Turkish officials say rescue workers have discovered the bodies of 28 miners trapped deep inside a coal pit following a gas explosion on Monday.
