Russia wants global fund after Gulf oil spill
Russian President Dmitry Medvedev called on the world's leading economic powers on Saturday to consider creating a fund to insure against large-scale environmental disasters like the Gulf of Mexico oil spill. Gulf Oil Spill "Perhaps we should consider setting up a global fund for insuring or re-insuring against these sorts of (environmental) risks," the president wrote in his official Kremlin blog. Medvedev said he expected to raise the issue at a G20 summit in Canada later this month. Russia, the world's leading oil producer, has paid close attention to BP's reaction to the Gulf spill, in part because 25 percent of the British energy giant's global output comes from its Moscow-based TNK-BP joint venture. Deputy Prime Minister Igor Sechin on Saturday said Russia would introduce stricter safety requirements for oil producers as a result of the Gulf spill, now considered the largest environmental disaster in U.. » read more
NATO Could Not Have Been Unaware

In this article, written just before the Alliance requested the release of the prisoners and vessels, Manlio Dinucci observes that, given the close ties between the Israeli forces and NATO, it is inconceivable that the latter had no foreknowledge of the operation. "Mediterranean Dialogue" is the name of the NATO operation involving the navies of seven non-NATO members to "contribute to the security and stability in the region." The greatest effort is made by the Israeli Navy, the same that perpetrated a massacre of pacifists by waging a terrorist-like attack in international waters.. » read more

Health Care in War Zones and Countries Affected by Conflict
Jan. 23, 2010 GENEVA, (UNHCR) – An article in The Lancet medical journal, co-authored by a UNHCR expert, says health care for people in conflict settings needs to be updated. It calls for changes in four key areas: delivery of health services; treatment of chronic diseases; development of health services in urban areas; and surveillance, measurement and monitoring. The report authors, led by Paul Spiegel, chief of UNHCR's Public Health and HIV Section, argue that governments, UN agencies and international organizations have been slow to adapt to changes in the operating environments in which they help the conflict-affected, including refugees and internally displaced people. While acknowledging that substantial progress has been made in responding to the health-care needs of conflict-affected populations in recent decades, they note that the provision of such care has been compromised by shrinkage of the humanitarian space – the areas in which civilians can seek shelter and aid workers provide assistance in safety.. » read more
Glacier Meltdown: Another Scientific Scandal Involving the IPCC Climate Research Group
Jan. 23, 2010 Only days after the failed Copenhagen Global Warming Summit, yet a new scandal over the scientific accuracy of the UN IPCC 2007 climate report has emerged. Following the major data-manipulation scandals from the UN-tied research center at Britain’s East Anglia University late 2009, the picture emerges of one of the most massive scientific frauds of recent history. Senior members of the UN climate project, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) have been forced to admit a major error in the 2007 IPCC UN report that triggered the recent global campaign for urgent measures to reduce “manmade emissions” of CO2. The IPCC’s 2007 report stated, “glaciers in the Himalayas are receding faster than in any other part of the world.. » read more
To my fellow Americans who are sleeping their way right into tyranny.
----- Original Message ----- From: F To: Sent: Tuesday, January 19, 2010 5:12 PM Subject: To my fellow Americans who are sleeping their way right into tyranny. Hey sleepyhead Americans. Wanna hear another classic scam to steal your money as you sleep away in partisan jollyland, watch the elitists' distractions like Jerry Springer, Brittney and the Tiger Woods show? How about the World Health Organization seeking to tax you on your internet use and your banking activity, as if the WHO, a private organization, has anything to do with your banking and internet activities. Will you finally wake up? I alone have written to you about at least 100 freedoms that the governments have taken away from you over the years. When will it be enough - when you can no longer drive a car? Travel state to state? Walk on the beach without a permit? Not be permitted to have a child without a governmental permit? May I ask, what the he11 will it take for you to wake up that sleeping sense of liberty you allowed to go to sleep so many year ago? Gee, are the mafias of the world not already giving you enough of the red-hot poker, or is it that by your apathy, you are indicating that you continually want some more? Rest assured, the elitist criminals are ALWAYS ready to oblige you in stealing your money to enslave you further! http://www.. » read more

SAGE recommends which vaccines -- and how many -- member countries should purchase for the pandemic.. » read more
