From a different point of view, source from non mainstream media ... Follow up: From ally to devil in six months | theSundaily Oil is a potent aphrodisiac. Libya has vast reserves of premium, low-sulphur oil and gas, and a hundred-year supply of ancient artesian water. Energy-rich Libya will become an important market for European consumer products and industrial exports, as well as a huge major supplier of investment funds from its estimated US$50 billion worth of annual oil exports. There are more prizes to be had: Libya's gold reserves, estimated at US$4-5 billion; and its nearly US$100 billion of foreign deposits and investments. The files of its intelligence agencies which may reveal the true story behind the bombings of a French and US airliner in the 1980's.

The lies Bush wanted to believe

Posted in: Opinions Written By: Eric S. Margolis* I take little pleasure in being vindicated. I’d have much preferred the US had never invaded Iraq, an unnecessary war that killed hundreds of thousands, ravaged Iraq, and cost US taxpayers close to $1 trillion — to date. Ironically, it was Saddam Hussein, not Bush or Cheney, who were telling the truth. The US media played a major role promoting the Iraq war. It trumpeted White House war propaganda, headlined false stories, and kept the American public in a state of constant fear and confusion. Thanks to collusion between the Bush White House and the media, over 80 per cent of Americans wrongly believed Iraq was behind the 9/11 attacks. ... Americans, as with most people, like to be told only what they already believe. The US corporate media often acts as a megaphone for government or special interests rather than performing its key role in a democracy — keeping government honest. That has become the job of WikiLeaks. *Eri...

中日百年一戰

日本跟中國100年打一次仗,19世紀打了日清戰爭(中稱甲午戰爭),20世紀打了一場日中戰爭(中稱抗日戰爭),21世紀如果日中開火,你認為大概是甚麼時候?可能的遠因和近因在哪?分析之。 有個高中生這樣分析: “我們跟中國很可能在台灣回到中國以後,有一場激戰。台灣如果回到中國,中國會封鎖基隆與高雄,台灣海峽就會變成中國的內海,我們的油輪就統統走右邊,走基隆和高雄的右邊。這樣,會增加日本運油成本。我們的石油從波斯灣出來跨過印度洋,穿過馬六甲海峽,上中國南海,跨台灣海峽進東海,這是石油生命線。中國政府如果封鎖台灣海峽,我們的貨輪一定要從那邊過,我們的主力艦和驅逐艦就會出動,中國海軍一看到日本出兵,馬上就會上場,那就打!估計2015至2020年之間,這場戰爭可能爆發。” 這種題目和答案固然現實,卻很可怕。雖然中國不可能也不會更不能封鎖台灣海峽,但這種教育制度下的遠瞻性,除了培養學生的危機意識,卻也將一種敵對心態深種在下一代心裡。 危機意識可以充滿敵對意識,也可以散播和平種子。日本的歷史考題,大可在題末補充:日中該如何破除百年一仗的魔咒? http://opinions.sinchew-i.com/node/17824 ------------------------- 哥哥作业有一造句题,范例是“狠狠地啄了一下” 哥哥造了一句“重重的打了一下” 妈妈也造了一句“轻轻地碰了一下” 妹妹说了“爱爱的亲了一下” 妈妈笑问:“什么是爱爱的亲了一下?” 妹妹边说边做:“就是很爱你的亲了你一下啊!”然后就往妈妈的脸上亲了一下。 我家童言,逗乐了爸妈,星洲日报小活力,2011年1月15日

战场上的娃娃兵

童年时快乐的时光,但你知道吗?全球还有 25 万娃娃兵,他们远离父母,每天为了廉价十五卖命卖身。“爱护儿童”已经是人尽皆知的口号,但这种爱护一直前行在一条漫长而曲折的道路上。让未成年的孩子远离枪支,应是世界各国共同的责任,因为放下枪的娃娃们也代表了我们共同的未来。 光华 Related: 手机的廉价人力成本 , 全球帝国之北方和南方
