The drone story

Conducting “remote-controlled” wars globinfo freexchange “ The Predator drone, though best known as the CIA's primary weapon in the war against Al Qaeda, was merely an unarmed, remote-control intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance aircraft when the Defense Department first bought it in 1994.” “ Many pilots in the Air Force disdained unmanned aerial vehicles, but the fighter pilot who was that service's chief of staff from 1994-97, General Ronald Fogleman, set out to wrest control of the Predator away from the Army and Navy and secure it for the Air Force.” “ On September 2, 1996, the Air Force's 11th Reconnaissance Squadron took over Predator operations from the Army, which had been flying the drone over Bosnia by remote control from Taszar, Hungary, since March 14 of that year.” “ In September 2000, an Air Force unit began flying an unarmed Predator over Afghanistan for the CIA in an attempt to locate Osama bin Laden, who had been in h

The end of nuclear waste?

While exporting gas, Russia proceeds in the next generation full-cycle nuclear reactors “ Russia’s ‘Breakthrough’ energy project enables closed a nuclear fuel cycle and a future without radioactive waste. The first batch of MOX nuclear fuel has been manufactured for the world’s only NPP industrially power generating breeder reactors.” “ A world first, tablets of the fuel of the future have been put on serial production and are destined for Russia’s next generation BN-800 breeder reactor (880 megawatts), currently undergoing tests at the Beloyarskaya nuclear power plant. The production line, now undergoing start-up and adjustment, was assembled in a mine 200 meters underground and will become fully operational by the end of 2014.” “ Fast fission reactors solve the problem of depleted uranium nuclear fuel on the planet. They can ‘burn’ not only ‘classic’ uranium-235, (scarce and already coming to an end), but also uranium-238, which is abundant, and expan

Further info about the "Cuban Five" case

“ The three documents — two cables and a diplomatic note — all relate to the 1997 Havana hotel bombing campaign, which was masterminded by Cuban exile militant Luis Posada Carriles and financed by members of the powerful Cuban American National Foundation.” “ There is nothing especially new in any of the documents, except the claim the US Government asked the Cubans in diplomatic notes on at least five occasions that summer (July 13, August 7 and 21, and September 5 and 11) to 'furnish all information it may have in its possession that concretely links US persons or organizations to any of the explosions.'” “ The first document is an unclassified cable from the US Interest Section in Havana to the State Department, the White House and more than a dozen American embassies. The subject heading: 'FOREIGN MINISTER SAYS U.S. RESPONSIBLE FOR CONSEQUENCES OF RECENT HAVANA BOMBINGS.'” “ The note focused on statements Cuban Foreign Minister Robert

Μια νέα απόπειρα "εξημέρωσης" της Αριστεράς εν μέσω πανικού

του system failure Το συστημικό κατεστημένο βρίσκεται ξανά σε πανικό εν όψει πιθανών εθνικών εκλογών. Οι γνωστοί και μη εξαιρετέοι εκπρόσωποι της τραπεζομιντιακής δικτατορίας στην Ελλάδα, άρχισαν πάλι τη γνωστή προπαγάνδα μέσα από τις συχνότητες της διαπλοκής που κατακλύζουν την Ελληνική επικράτεια ( http://failedevolution.blogspot.gr/2014/08/blog-post_25.html ), με τα γνωστά κλισέ του τύπου "δεν θα υπάρξουν άλλα μέτρα", "να μην ρίξουμε την καρδάρα με το γάλα τώρα που η χώρα ανακάμπτει", "που θα βρει τα λεφτά ο ΣΥΡΙΖΑ" και άλλα τέτοια γραφικά. Δεν υπάρχει βεβαίως πουθενά καμία ανάκαμψη, καμία προοπτική βελτίωσης στον ορίζοντα και στην πραγματικότητα δεν τους ενδιαφέρει κάτι τέτοιο. Το μόνο που ενδιαφέρει την τωρινή κυβέρνηση-μαριονέτα, είναι να παραμείνει με κάθε τρόπο στην εξουσία μέχρι το 2016 για να ολοκληρώσει το πείραμα, εφαρμόζοντας κατά γράμμα την νεοφιλελεύθερη ατζέντα των δανειστών. Το γεγονός της ωμής κυβερνητικής παρέμβασης ώ
