Blackwater were hired as C.I.A. planned to kill Jihadists


The Central Intelligence Agency in 2004 hired outside contractors from the private security contractor Blackwater USA as part of a secret program to locate and assassinate top operatives of Al Qaeda, according to current and former government officials.

Executives from Blackwater, which has generated controversy because of its aggressive tactics in Iraq, helped the spy agency with planning, training and surveillance. The C.I.A. spent several millions dollars on the program,
which did not capture or kill any terrorist suspects.

Dj Spooky + Sussan Deyhim – Azadi (The New Complexity)



This collaboration is a single on Dj Spooky’s next album “The Secret Song” that will be out in October, 2009.

Azadi (The New Complexity) is a song based on a very old poem by Rumi, one of the poet laureates of Iran’s ancient tradition of poetry. The word Azadi itself simply means Freedom.

Here is the original poem translated into English

SHOW ME YOUR FACE

i crave
flowers and gardens

open your lips
i crave
the taste of honey

come out from
behind the clouds
i desire a sunny face

your voice echoed
saying “leave me alone”
i wish to hear your voice
again saying “leave me alone”

i swear this city without you
is a prison
i am dying to get out
to roam in deserts and mountains

i am tired of
flimsy friends and
submissive companions

i am blue hearing
nagging voices and meek cries
i desire loud music
drunken parties and
wild dances

one hand holding
a cup of wine
one hand caressing your hair
then dancing in orbital circle
that is what i yearn for

i can sing better than any nightingale
but because of
this city’s freaks
i seal my lips
while my heart weeps

yesterday the wisest man
holding a lit lantern
in daylight
was searching around town saying

i am tired of
all these beast and brutes
i seek
a true human

we have all looked
for one but
no one could be found
they said

yes he replied
but my search is
for the one
who cannot be found

"I told him it was a stupid idea, but sometimes they don't get our inflection."

WTF? Ignorance is bliss? HMMMMM!


So she says 'Heil Hitler' to a Jewish Obama supporter and yet she is wearing an Isreali Defence Forces t-shirt!
In another interview here she says:"I don't care what they do with this health care bill. It will not pay for abortions. If somebody wants to go out and have wild sex, for the fun of it, then they can pay for the consequences. I'm not going to."
Dearie, dearie me.
Thanx as always Fifi

Barney Frank confronts woman at Town Hall comparing Obama to Hitler

At a Barney Frank (D) town hall meeting in Dartmouth, MA, a constituent asks, "Why are you supporting this Nazi policy?"
Frank responds: "On what planet do you spend most of your time?" He then calls her approach "vile, contemptible nonsense." He closes by saying: "Trying to have a conversation with you would be like arguing with a dining room table."

10 books that are harder to read than 'Twilight'

The Twilight books have turned a generation of adult women away from People magazine and on to books, word books! The only problem is, this phenomenon comes with a sense of smugness among readers who consider themselves intellectuals because they often finish a book within a weekend or even a day.
However, did you know that Twilight has a grade equivalent score of 4.4? What this means is that the vocabulary and sentence structure of this book are best suited for people who read at a 4th grade level, mainly 4th graders. I did some research and the following books scored the same rating or higher for grade equivalency and therefore are just as difficult to read and comprehend as Twilight.

Robot prostitutes tipped to tempt future tourists

It sounds like science fiction, but robot bar staff, hotel rooms that change colour, cruise ships as big as aircraft carriers and even robot sex are part of the future for travellers, a tourism conference has been told.
