Army deploys combat unit in US for possible civil unrest For the first time ever, the US military is deploying an active duty regular Army combat unit for full-time use inside the United States to deal with emergencies, including potential civil unrest. Beginning 1 October, the First Brigade Combat Team of the Third Division will be placed under the command of US Army North, the Armys component of the Pentagons Northern Command (NorthCom), which was created in the wake of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks with the stated mission of defending the US homeland and aiding federal, state and local authorities. The unit?known as the Raiders?is among the Armys most blooded. An article that appeared earlier this month in the Army Times (Brigade homeland tours start Oct. 1), a publication that is widely read within the military, paints a very ominous picture. They may be called upon to help with civil unrest and crowd control, the paper reports. It quotes the units commander, Col. Robert Cloutier, as saying that the 1st BCTs soldiers are being trained in the use of the first ever nonlethal package the Army has fielded. The weapons, the paper reported, are designed to subdue unruly or dangerous individuals without killing them. The colonels remark suggests that, in preparation for their homefront duties, rank-and-file troops are also being routinely Tasered. The brutalising effect and intent of such a macabre training exercise is to inure troops against sympathy for the pain ...

The US is bankrupt. What to do now? Economists of every political stripe are predicting a slump, the Democratic presidential candidates have all made proposals for an economic stimulus package ? and even the Bush administration, long in a convenient denial about the housing crisis and its impact, is trying to put together a plan to jump-start the economy. Here is where the situation gets tough. The USA must stop pretending to be a super power any more. Will they take the path of war? Yet the stimulus proposals from both parties amount to just a fraction of the amount spent on the US wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. This war was and still a disaster for the US economy. Bush thought that Iraq by now should have been already functioning as a country and the US economy getting the benefits of their Oil to recover the war expenses plus making profits. Well, that never happened. George Bush, will be remembered in history as the man who destroyed the USA, we are living the fall of an empire. With more bad news emerging on practically every economic front ? falling house prices, a credit squeeze, declining consumer spending, stagnant wages and higher inflation ? the picture is likely to get worse. Wall Street has already signaled Corporate Americas plan: grab all the cash you can, and make workers pay. This was the reason why Oils prices were very high because everyone (hedge funds)was and still now desperately trying to get liquid; and Oil, Gold and Drugs have become the ...

If this is true the labour government is going to loose the election and the British National Party will gain more seats!! LONDON: Five Sharia courts have been set up in different cities of Britain with powers to rule on Muslim civil cases. The government has quietly sanctioned the powers for sharia judges to rule on cases ranging from divorce and financial disputes to those involving domestic violence, according to a report. The Islamic courts have been set up in London, Birmingham, Bradford and Manchester wi More..th the networks headquarters in Nuneaton, Warwickshire. Two more courts are being planned for Glasgow and Edinburgh, the report said. Rulings issued by the five sharia courts are enforceable with full power of the judicial system through the country courts or high court. Previously, the rulings of sharia courts in Britain could not be enforced, and depended on voluntary compliance among Muslims. Sheikh Faiz-ul-Aqtab Siddique, whose Muslim Arbitration Tribunal runs the courts, said he had taken advantage of a clause in the Arbitration Act 1996. Under the act, the sharia courts are classified as arbitration tribunals. The rulings of arbitration tribunals are binding in law, provided that both parties in the dispute agree to give it the power to rule on their case. "We realised that under the Arbitration Act, we can make rulings which can be enforced by country and high courts. The act allows disputes to be resolved using alternatives like tribunals," Siddique ...

Professor Peter Morici of the University of Maryland has been an adviser to the US Congress and government. Wizardry. Alchemy. Lead into gold. Are these the playthings only of medieval fools? The credit crunch tells us perhaps not. The Holy Grail of medieval science was to find the formula to turn lead into gold. August 2007 Short-term credit markets freeze up after French bank BNP Paribas suspends three investment funds worth 2bn euros The bank cited problems in the US sub-prime mortgage sector During the following months, US and European banks report losses totalling hundreds of billions of dollars The European Central Bank pumps 95bn euros into the eurozone banking system to ease the sub-prime credit crunch The US Federal Reserve and the Bank of Japan take similar steps And why not? Wealth without work. Everyone was for that, but we modern folks know better. Or do we? Today, globalisation is driving down profit margins in making everything, from steel to software. If you make a profit, soon someone in China will make it begone. But deal-making, putting companies together and taking them apart, financing it all, offers great rewards. Then there are the risks. Making risks evaporate in the morning sun, or the shadows of Wall Street, seems to be where the wealth lies. Enter our financial engineers. They dont deal in metals or megabytes, they deal in companies that make them. Combining them, financing them, taking them apart, putting them together again. Thats the stuff ...
