myLot Topics| One Year Since and Many Still Don't Know the Truth. | | Today is exactly one year since Georgia attacked South Ossetia. How many people got killed? How many people wish they did? What's the worse is that people who tried to help civilians were blamed for these deaths. I will never understand why people who posted pictures taken by a nurse who died trying to save people in Tshenvale, city that got bombed on the first day and this web site said that this pictures were taken in Georgia and this is what Russian Military did, they knew it was a lie and they said it anyway. Why when Italian channel showed footage of Georgian military going into Tshenvale they said it was Russia military. Soldiers were speaking Georgian for god's sake. Why when a girl who survived in Tshenvale started saying that it was Georgians who were attacking them and Russians saved them the host of the show went to a commercial break to keep it down and not let a girl say anything else. Why after Georgia promised to give a safe passage out of Tshenvale they ended up attacking those who they promised to let go? Why do people who survived have to be sorry they survived while their loved once died? Why did the whole world believed a man... | |
| | Wars and rumors of war:Russians poised for confrontation with Muslims | | Think if the United States don't tighten up our boards these radical Muslims dudes could sneak in and blow Americans up if they are shopping or eating lunch in the wrong place?(RUSSIAN PREPARING FOR WAR WITH RADICAL MUSLIMS)For Russia, bringing Georgia back under its direct sphere of influence will allow it to take over the one pipeline not presently under its control from Azerbaijan through Georgia to Turkey that provides oil and gas to Europe. Russian presence in Georgia also will give it land access to a critical Russian military base in Armenia, which maintains close ties with Moscow.A reinvigorated Russian influence in the region would help contain the Islamist threat in the North Caucasus – dubbed by the militants as the Caucasus Emirate. The militants' purpose is to set up an Islamic Caliphate throughout the entire North Caucasus and then spread down into the South Caucasus.Until now, the three northeastern Russian North Caucasus republics of Dagestan, Ingushetia and Chechnya were regarded as "problem republics." Now, Islamic attacks have spread to include the northeastern republics of Kabardino-Balkaria, Karachaevo-Cherkessia and Adygeya.. Together, they... | |
| | handgun against an army second try (not all made it in the last post) | | trying this again, the last one got cut off, hopefully this is complete.By Mike VanderboeghA friend of mine recently forwarded me a question a friend of his had posed:"If/when our Federal Government comes to pilfer, pillage, plunder our property and destroy our lives, what good can a handgun do against an army with advanced weaponry, tanks, missiles, planes, or whatever else they might have at their disposal to achieve their nefarious goals? (I'm not being facetious: I accept the possibility that what happened in Germany, or similar, could happen here; I'm just not sure that the potential good from an armed citizenry in such a situation outweighs the day-to-day problems caused by masses of idiots who own guns.)"If I may, I'd like to try to answer that question. I certainly do not think the writer facetious for asking it. The subject is a serious one that I have given much research and considerable thought to. I believe that upon the answer to this question depends the future of our Constitutional republic, our liberty and perhaps our lives. My friend Aaron Zelman, one of the founders of Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership told me once:

| | How do you feel about patriotism? | | By definition Patriot is: A person who loves, supports, and defends his or her Country and its interest.
Nowadays this quality is kind of missing in some countries around the globe. With the threat of a Cold war in the horizons (hopefully); As long as they keep TALKING, the rest of the world may remain with hopes of peace.
The recent events in Georgia, the coments of The European Union, Chavez in Venezuela declaring his permission for a coming Russian military base, and welcoming their floats to HELP KEEP PEACE in the zone!
I Have to ask my self, been a foreing, in my country of residence Dominican Rep. a tourist with Interests in USA. How much of a Patriot Iam? And so many Millions of people like me, Around the world, How does Patriotism works nowadays?
Would I defend my country of residence? Would I defend my Means of living? Would I defend FREEDOM? Just a thoght, I wanted to share with my Lot community..... | |

| | leak | | PROBABLY the worst atrocity last year was the Bali bombings that killed 202 people last October - the event was reported in this column on October 22. The bomb blast outside a busy nightclub killed mainly tourists. A lot of them were from Australia where many of Bali s visitors come from. Recently the person found guilty of this atrocious crime was sentenced to death. He is a 40-year-old garage mechanic known only as Amrozi and his smiling face after being sentenced to death was to be seen in many newspapers around the world. Amrozi was convicted of planning and carrying out terrorist crimes. He had confessed to buying nearly a ton of chemical fertiliser for the bomb and to supplying the mini-van in which it exploded but he denied planning the attack and his lawyers will appeal against the sentence. If that fails Amrozi will face execution by a firing squad of 14. He will be hooded before a target is placed over his heart, either hung round his neck or marked out in sticking plaster on his bare chest. Amrozi has shown n remorse for any of the victims. Most were young visitors enjoying a night out at two popular bars in the heart of Bali tourist area. He... | |
| | Shared interests of China, Russia | | The Sino-Russian summit, which has just come to a close, has injected new vitality into Sino-Russian relations. The joint proclamation on world order in the 21st century and a joint statement are significant historical documents that herald a new, more developed era for bilateral ties. The Sino-Russian relationship, after repeated adjustments since the end of the Cold War, has been jointly defined and accepted as one of "strategic co-operative partnership." The two countries have a lot of common interests and shared values looking to the future, and the relationship, thus defined, accurately reflects reality. More overlapping national interests serve as a strong basis for Sino-Russian relations. There are many joint strategic interests, which can be summarized as follows: Joint economic benefits With economic co-operation and trade between the two countries sustaining their momentum, bilateral trade reached a record US$21.3 billion in 2004. There is still potential for growth as the two economies are complimentary in nature. Five years from now this figure is expected to rise to US$60-80 billion, which will make China-Russia one of the most important... | |
| | Reports of the huge Unocal oil & liquifiable natural gas discoveries in the Casp | | The impact of these earlier discoveries, estimated to be even greater than Saudi Arabia proven oil reserves of the preferred "light sweet crude" variety, may potentially threaten/influence overall regional stability, the US-based military presence there, OPEC base prices globally, and the extremely nearby Russian military bases there on alert.
The building of 2 liquefiable natural gas pipelines there recently, thru Pakistan and Afganistan by US oil interests, is unquestionably indicative of the region's importance as a protected "vital interest" or resource market of the US. | |

| | American Missile Defense Shield....in Poland? | | By MICHAEL R. GORDON
Published: May 22, 2006
WASHINGTON, May 21 — The Bush administration is moving to establish a new antimissile site in Europe that would be designed to stop attacks by Iran against the United States and its European allies.
The administration's proposal, which comes amid rising concerns about Iran's suspected program to develop nuclear weapons, calls for installing 10 antimissile interceptors at a European site by 2011. Poland and the Czech Republic are among the nations under consideration.
A recommendation on a European site is expected to be made this summer to Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld, Pentagon officials say. The Pentagon has asked Congress for $56 million to begin initial work on the long-envisioned antimissile site, a request that has run into some opposition in Congress. The final cost, including the interceptors themselves, is estimated at $1.6 billion.
The establishment of an antimissile base in Eastern Europe would have enormous political implications. The deployment of interceptors in Poland, for example, would create the first permanent American military presence on that nation's soil and further solidify the close ties between the... | |
