Hello there, and thanks for showing up. I promise to make it worth your while.

Starting with Canadian news - not that there's much of it but this 1st story is significant in that reporters are being banned from hearings on Afghan detainees http://bit.ly/9CVwve To protect Stephen Harper and the torries of course. Canadians finding all 3 parties uninspiring http://bit.ly/9OLlgg not surprising when it's hard to name what each party stands for. A roundup of opinion on latest Quebec budget http://bit.ly/bzVIeI

This is the very disturbing video of American soldiers murdering Iraqi civillians and behaving like sociopaths. Parts of the video have been played by the MSM but that does not do its sociopathic nature justice http://bit.ly/c1OwOu And this is not an aberration argues Greenwald  ably here http://bit.ly/d9HnJw and in his follow-up here http://bit.ly/cTXOyQ which is also an indictment of the American msm. Needless to say, Iraqis are outraged http://bit.ly/9nC8n5

The outfit that received and released this are the people at  http://wikileaks.org/ and they aptly call itself "the intelligence agency of the people" And they're so threatening to the powers that be that the Pentagon and the CIA are waging war against them. Glenn Greenwald has all the details http://bit.ly/a8tTSU You can also listen to an interview with the co-founder and editor of Wikileaks here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QEdAykXxoM 

American media: Does fox news actually want mob violence? http://bit.ly/9nFPPb Here's glenn beck and his fox cohorts at fox spreading the militia message http://bit.ly/bUPJpp And here's someone they probably helped incite being arrested for threatening to kill a US Senator http://huff.to/cCHkNp The schmucks at CNN ask is homosexuality a problem in need of a cure? http://huff.to/aY9f5B And finally Rupert (most evil man in the world) speaks http://huff.to/apkMg0
