As Sean Hannity, Rick Davis and John McCain step up their personal attacks on Barack Obama, a funny thing happened on the way to the smear fest. It seems John McCain has some prior associations he would rather not have revealed. I mean real ones. Check out this group. GOP presidential nominee John McCain has past connections to a private group that supplied aid to guerrillas seeking to overthrow the leftist government of Nicaragua in the Iran-Contra affair. The U.S. Council for World Freedom was part of an international organization linked to former Nazi collaborators and ultra-right-wing Death Squads in Central America. The group was dedicated to stamping out communism around the globe. The council's founder, retired Army Maj. Gen. John Singlaub, said McCain became associated with the organization in the early 1980s as McCain was launching his political career in Arizona. Singlaub said McCain was a supporter but not an active member in the group. Oh, my. Playing the Guilt by Association Game doesn't seem to be a good idea for McCain with friends like those. Paul Begala tried to warn him on Meet the Press: MR. BEGALA: Well, no. Obama was—he was asked about this in a debate in a primaries with Hillary Clinton sitting there; George Stephanopoulos of ABC asked him about it. He answered it. He pointed out that the despicable acts this guy committed were committed when, apparently, Barack Obama was eight years old. And, and I think Go ...

On Tuesday, an Associated Press article featured on MSNBC.com and briefly as a top headline on the popular internet homepage MSN.com was titled: "McCain linked to group in Iran-Contra case." The subtitle read: "Organization had ties to former Nazi collaborators, right-wing Death Squads." The article attacked a group founded by retired U.S. General John Singlaub: "The U.S. Council for World Freedom was part of an international organization linked to former Nazi collaborators and ultra-right-wing Death Squads in Central America. The group was dedicated to stamping out communism around the globe." The AP appears to be getting its story tips from the Obama campaign, as Boston Globe deputy national political editor, Foon Rhee, reported: "The Obama camp today is sending around reports on Singlaub, founder of the US Council for World Freedom, which was involved in the Iran-Contra scandal during the mid-1980s and was criticized for supposed links to Nazi collaborators and right-wing Death Squads in Central America." The AP article justified reporting on the tenuous McCain connection by explaining: "McCain's ties are facing renewed scrutiny after his campaign criticized Barack Obama for his link to a former radical who engaged in violent acts 40 years ago." In the article, General Singlaub is quoted and suggested that McCain had little or no involvement in the organization: "We had McCain on the board to make him feel like he wasn't left ...

WASHINGTON | John McCain' s ties to the U.S. chapter of a group linked to 1980s Central American ultra-right-wing Death Squads are under new scrutiny after his campaign criticized Barack Obama for associating with a former 1960s-era radical. McCain served on the advisory board to the U.S. Council for World Freedom, which aided rebels trying to overthrow the leftist government of Nicaragua. That landed the group in the middle of the 1980s Iran-Contra affair that rocked President Ronald Reagan's presidency and put the group in legal trouble with the U.S. tax agency, which revoked the charitable organization's tax exemption. The council created by retired Army Maj. Gen. John Singlaub was the U.S. chapter of the World Anti-Communist League, an international organization linked to former Nazi collaborators and ultra-right-wing Death Squads in Central America. After setting up the U.S. council, Singlaub served as the international league's chairman. read more ...

By Brenda Norrell TUCSON --The Death Squads of the Zetas, trained at the US School of the Americas, are now carrying out murders for Mexican drug cartels and hired as killers in Iraq. The Kaibiles, Guatemalan Death Squads trained by US Special Forces, are now responsible for murders and rapes in the Congo and around the world. In Mexico, US trained Death Squads attack and murder Indigenous Peoples, including the Zapatistas, struggling for dignity, autonomy and survival. The United States training of Death Squads and torturers is one of the most censored issues in the media. Urging news reporters to report the facts, reader Swaneagle writes, "The following is critical under-reported urgent news. Zetas are mutinous Mexican army troops who graduated from School of the Americas. Hired by the cartels, they are directly responsible for an astounding rise in brutal, grisly killings, including many of the murders of women in Juarez, which are up to 75 this year. "Zetas have also been hired as mercenaries in Iraq. The spread of the SOA template must be halted." Swaneagle adds, "I wonder how many follow the pattern of child soldiers in Africa." " School of the Americas Watch is where I first came across the involvement of the Zetas with the cartels. Then I saw a website by Mothers of the murdered young women of Juarez accusing the Zetas of being involved in the torture killings of their daughters. The saddest part of all is that Guatemalan ...

Bob Woodward gained his journalistic fame and Pulitzer when he broke the Watergate scandal with fellow writer Carl Bernstein. Since then, Woodward has continued to be a part of Washington's political journalism scene. The release of his new book, The War Within , reveals another bombshell. Talking about the revelation with CNN's Larry King, Woodward discusses his knowledge of a secret military program designed to assassinate key terrorist leadership in the global war on terror and how it's implementation, combined with the Mahdi Army ceasefire and the 30,000 troop surge are all critical elements behind the improved conditions in Iraq. Woodward doesn't let all the stops go, however; he admits that revealing all he knows would get Americans killed but acknowledges that when the truth comes out, the public will be amazed.

As the situation in starving Ogaden deteriorates, extraordinary measures have to be taken, if we take into consideration that the UN and the US proved to be thus far absolutely unsuccessful in ensuring the arrival of the humanitarian aid to the needy and starving Ogadenis. Given the tyrannical structure of the Abyssinian state (fallaciously re-baptized 'Ethiopia'), the Zenawi administration, possessed by racist hysteria, anti-Islamic madness and tribal hatred against the Islamic Nation of Ogaden, repeatedly withheld aid sent for Ogaden, diverting it to criminal Death Squads that spread terror in Ogaden and other parts of the inhumanly tyrannized country. Only 18% of the country's population (namely the Amhara and Tigray Monophysitic ... more ...

Terror the Human Form Divine And Secrecy the Human Dress -- William Blake I. Another way station on our plunge into darkness was passed last week with the publication of Bob Woodward's new book, The War Within . Along with the usual backstairs gossip dished out by self-serving insiders eager to plant their spin on events, Woodward revealed -- or, rather, confirmed -- the existence of what he called the key element to the "success" of Bush's escalation of the war crime in Iraq: a "secret killing program" aimed at assassinating anyone arbitrarily deemed a "terrorist" by the leaders of the foreign forces occupying the conquered land. In a TV appearance to puff the book , Woodward celebrated the arbitrary murder, by methods unknown, of people designated "terrorists," by criteria unknown, as "a wonderful example of American ingenuity solving a problem in war, as we often have." The White House acknowledged the existence of the assassination program, but insisted that it was the "surge" of troops that was mainly responsible for the drop in violence from the howling hell of 2006 to today's level, which, as Juan Cole has pointed out , is still greater than some of the most horrific civic conflicts of the last century. (It is a strange country indeed that can celebrate the creation of a blood-gushing sinkhole of violence and destruction as a "success beyond our wildest dreams," to use Barack Obama's new take on the surge .) Of course, Woodward ...

For years there has been comprehensive reporting from Colombia that trade union leaders are targeted by paramilitaries for murder and other human rights violations. Much of this violence is directed at leaders of unions at multinational firms, including the bottling plants used by the Coca-Cola Company. One union representing workers at Coca-Cola, Sinaltrainal, has sustained heavy loses of leaders who were employed by the company. Since at least 1996, Sinaltrainal has been writing letters to Coca-Cola demanding that the targeting of trade union leaders at Coca-Cola bottling plants be stopped. No action was taken by the company to prevent the open association between paramilitaries and managers of the Coca-Cola bottling plants in Colombia. The ILRF case against Coca-Cola is on behalf of the trade union and five individual union leaders who were murdered, tortured, and/or unlawfully detained. The allegation is that the paramilitaries were brought into the bottling plants to use violence to exterminate the trade union with the specific consent of the managers of the Coca-Cola bottling plants. In this case, the connectionto companyofficials is quite direct- plant managers brought the paramilitaries into the plants for the specific purpose of terrorizing union members. For example: - at the Coca-Cola bottling plant in Carepa, Colombia the manager appeared with several paramilitary members before the assembled workers. He warned them to cea ...

There really is no 'ho like an old 'ho...who cut his teeth (or learned to shield them, rather) at the WaHoPo. Eh? The dramatic drop in violence in Iraq is due in large part to a secret program the U.S. military has used to kill terrorists, according to a new book by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Bob Woodward. The program -- which Woodward compares to the World War II era Manhattan Project that developed the atomic bomb -- must remain secret for now or it would "get people killed," Woodward said Monday on CNN's Larry King Live. "It is a wonderful example of American ingenuity solving a problem in war, as we often have," Woodward said. Ingenuity, schmingenuity. This is an old tactic, actually. It was first perfected, to my knowledge, in Guatemala during the 1950s, after the place was reconverted to banana-republicanism. The problem was that democracy had broken out, and the natives had gotten all uppity and didn't want to make the United Fruit Co. happy anymore as good little slave laborers. Solution? Genocide. Only, of course, it was disguised as "antiterrorism"--all "terrorists", conveniently, being of a liberal or leftist persuasion, and in favor of land and labor reforms. Or anything else that might actually succeed in digging the locals out of the mire of perma-poverty. The only real thing that's changed, in all this time, is the locale of the banana-republicanization. And the language of the locals. Otherwise, no hay ningún di ...
