News from the rest of the World….

When our President or any politician speaks perhaps it would be wise of United States Sovereigns to peer out over the horizon of embedded media and look at what is happening around the world from the viewpoint of other countries. It could well prove that our politicians are right, and it could prove that sometimes we US Sovereigns are being lied to by the Embedded Congressional Media Military Industrial Matrix.

Downing of Flight 655 was state-sponsored terrorism: analyst
Tehran Times Political Desk
TEHRAN — The U.S. Navy’s guided missile cruiser USS Vincennes, shot down Iran Air Flight 655 over the Persian Gulf on July 3, 1988, killing all 290 passengers and crew members, including 66 children.
The U.S. government refused to apologize for the incident, which was the seventh deadliest plane crash in aviation history, claiming that the crew had mistaken the Iranian Airbus A300 for an attacking F-14 Tomcat fighter.
U.S. officials also said the entire Vincennes crew had been suffering from a mass psychological condition called “scenario fulfillment” and had thus confused their training scenario with a real situation and responded accordingly.
Iran condemned the incident as an international crime caused by the U.S. Navy’s “negligence and reckless behavior”.
The UN Security Council eventually passed Resolution 616, expressing “deep distress” over the incident and “profound regret” for the massive loss of life.
The Mehr News Agency sought the views of two political analysts and two lawmakers on Wednesday, which was the 20th anniversary of the Flight 655 tragedy.
Political analyst Mohammad-Kazem Anbarluii called the incident a blatant example of U.S. state-sponsored terrorism, which revealed the hegemonistic nature of the U.S. leaders.
MP Heshmatollah Falahatpisheh said, “The attack on Iran’s Airbus was the most hideous crime in aviation history.”
The fact that the United States awarded the Commendation Medal to Vincennes air-warfare coordinator Lieutenant Commander Scott Lustig was an admission that the attack was deliberate, he observed.
Hamidreza Taraqi of the Islamic Coalition Party said the U.S. shot down Flight 655 in response to Iran’s refusal to give in to Washington’s hegemonistic policy.
Thus Iran should be prepared to respond to similar actions while expecting no assistance from international organizations, he added.
Taraqi criticized the international community for its deafening silence about the blatant U.S. crime against Iranian civilians.
“This event shows that the organizations responsible for maintaining global security not only refuse to defend the oppressed nations, they also cover up the major powers’ crimes.”
MP Mohammadreza Khabaz of the National Confidence Party said the U.S. Navy had deliberately targeted the Iranian aircraft.
If the U.S. government really believed that the attack on Iran Air Flight 655 was a mistake, it would bring the commander of the Vincennes to court rather than awarding him a medal, he observed.
“History will never forget the United States’ crimes against humanity.”
Political analyst Abbas Salimi Namin criticized the West’s double standards towards terrorists.
The incident shows that “the West not only has no problem with terrorism, it also views it as an essential policy,” he stated.
“There is an eternal link between the Western system and terrorism… the West makes use of all options to serve its illegitimate interests.

Iran legally entitled to develop nuclear energy, says UK MP
London (IRNA) — Iran is legally entitled to develop nuclear energy under the Non-Proliferation Treaty, according to a British MP visiting Tehran for the first time.
George Galloway, who was expelled from Britain’s ruling Labor Party for his outspoken opposition to the Iraq war, also criticized the hypocrisy of Israel’s belligerence towards Iran, which has its own illegal stockpile of nuclear weapons.
Speaking before his visit, Galloway said that during his trip to Iran, he hoped to meet parliamentary speaker, Ali Larijani, former secretary general of the Supreme National Security Council.
“Larijani proved beyond even the CIA’s attempt at contradiction that Iran is acting entirely within her legal rights to develop nuclear power,” he said in his weekly column for the Scottish Daily Record newspaper.
“As a signatory to the treaty governing the development of nuclear weapons, Iran has done nothing wrong under it either, at least according to the watchdog maintained by the international community, the IAEA,” said the 54 year old Scottish MP.
“Israel, on the other hand, refuses to sign the nuclear weapons treaty and thus, with a chutzpah which takes the breath away, claims it’s not in breach of it,” he said.
After being expelled from Labor, Galloway was re-elected in 2005 as a MP for Bethnal Green and Bow constituency in east London for the anti-war Respect Party, which he set up.
He said that in his column next week he would write about “the great civilization that is Persia, which hasn’t attacked another country for more than 300 years, not a boast we can make ourselves.” -

Speaking to a packed audience at Brooklyn’s legendary House of the Lord Church, former Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney addresses the families of soldiers currently stationed in Iraq. With eloquence and courage, Cynthia breaks down the facts about the US occupation, links between the Bush Administration and the corporations benefitting from the engagement and the risks posed to US military personnel for a war that few believe was ever fought over anything but oil and geo-strategic positioning.

It used to be that just the entertainment industries wanted to control your computers — and televisions and iPods and everything else — to ensure that you didn’t violate any copyright rules. But now everyone else wants to get their hooks into your gear.
UPdate: A worthy comment:
Well, as a ham radio operator, I know that it’s going to be real hard for ONstar to shut off my car remotely if the antenna wire is shorted to ground.
