Questions over his reporting from the 1982 riot in Buenos Aires may be just the tip of the iceberg for Fox News‘ Bill O‘Reilly. The embattled „O‘Reilly Factor“ host is facing new allegations of embellishing his connection to a key moment in the investigation of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
CNN has published an audio recording of Bill O‘Reilly, allegedly proving that he lied in his best-selling book „Killing Kennedy.“
In the book, the famed Fox News host claims he was outside the door of George de Mohrenschildt, a friend of Kennedy assassin Lee Harvey Oswald, on March 29, 1977 in Florida. He says he heard the gunshot that was de Mohrenschildt committing suicide.

“The government’s message is clear,” Drake said in a statement. “[W]histleblowing in the public interest will be punished, while disclosing classified information devoid of public value will get you a pass.”
Die “Causa David Petraeus” wird überraschend in die amerikanische Runde geworfen. Das F.B.I. verlangt Erklärung vom U.S.-Justizministerium zum verbindlichen Termin der Aufnahme eines Ermittlungsverfahrens wegen Verletzung von Dienstgeheimnissen durch den ehemaligen C.I.A-Chef und beruft sich auf die verschärften Massnahmen gegen Whistleblower.
Shortly after the Israeli prime minister ranted against the ongoing Iran nuclear talks, Obama told reports on Tuesday that Netanyahu „did not offer any viable alternative.”
„I am not focused in the politics of this, I am not focused on the theatre,“ Obama said. „As far as I can tell, there was nothing new.“
According to Ali Freijat, a local resident, as many as 14 Israeli tractors escorted by in excess of 50 Israeli police vehicles destroyed the agricultural products and leveled the land early on Tuesday, Ma’an news agency reported.
„This is vandalism through which they plan to displace the Bedouins from the Negev so as to create a Jewish state free of Arabs,” Freijat added.
Die Auszeichnung wurde von Tony Blair im November von der US-Arm von Save the Children über seine Arbeit in Afrika übergeben.
Kritiker sagen, ein „Global Legacy Award“ sollte nicht haben, um Blair gegeben, als er führte den UK in den 2003 US-geführten Invasion im Irak.

Speaker of the House John Boehner and Prime Minister Netanyahu’s conspiracy to humiliate President Obama and dominate the news backfired as the U.S. broadcast networks ignored the speech and refused to televise it live.
Netanyahu’s speech has contained nothing new that the American people haven’t heard from neo-cons for decades. Netanyahu broke out various scare tactics with the purpose of frightening the American people into opposing President Obama’s negotiations with Iran on a nuclear deal.
“I’ll get to the heart of this speech now,” Matthews told MSNBC’s Thomas Robertson. “This man from a foreign government walked into the United States legislative chamber and tried to take over U.S. foreign policy. He said, ‘You should trust me, not your president on this. I am the man you should trust, I am your true leader on this question of U.S. geopolitics. To protect yourself, you must listen to me and not this president.’”
… “Think it through, what country in the world would let a foreign leader come in and attempt to wrest from the president control of the U.S. foreign policy?” Matthews asked.
dass die nicht merken, dass man Spurensicherung nach der Tat am Tatort macht, aber Vorratsdatenspeicherung überall, immer, gegen alle gerichtet, vor der Tat.
Jewish Voice for Peace Executive Director Rebecca Vilkomerson: “The controversy sparked by Prime Minister Netanyahu’s speech provides an important opportunity to highlight the real problem, the US/Israeli special relationship. Unprecedented financial and diplomatic support from the United States has long enabled Israel to defy international law and commit human rights abuses with impunity. It’s time for our elected officials to catch up with the increasing number of voters who believe that Israel’s policies of occupation, systemic discrimination, and incessant settlement building are the key barriers to peace.”
The plea agreement includes a recommendation of two years probation and a $40,000 fine.
Präsidentin zieht positive Bilanz ihrer Regierungszeit: Schuldenproblem gelöst, Privatisierungen zurückgenommen, Fortschritte im sozialen Bereich
Vor allem die Korruption und die Machenschaften der Oligarchen trügen Schuld daran. Gegen sie richteten sich bereits die Majdan-Proteste; dennoch sind sie seit dem Machtwechsel in Kiew nicht geringer geworden. Tatsächlich gehörte es zu den ersten Maßnahmen des Kiewer Umsturzregimes, Oligarchen in zentrale Machtpositionen zu bringen [6], etwa Ihor Kolomojskij, der als Gouverneur von Dnipropetrowsk zunächst mit der Niederschlagung von Protesten gegen das Umsturzregime betraut wurde und der heute als Finanzier teilweise faschistischer Milizen eine entscheidende Rolle im ostukrainischen Bürgerkrieg spielt. Zu den in Amt und Würden gekommenen Oligarchen, mit denen auch Berlin eng kooperiert, gehört Staatspräsident Petro Poroschenko, der nach seiner Wahl nicht – wie angekündigt – sein Wirtschaftsimperium veräußert hat und bis heute nicht nur den Süßwarenkonzern Roshen, sondern unter anderem auch einen Fernsehsender (Kanal 5) kontrolliert. Wie vor dem Umsturz könnten Fachleute unter den Abgeordneten des Parlaments in Kiew eine „Poroschenko-“ von einer „Kolomojskij-„, einer „Firtasch-“ und einer „Achmetow-Gruppe“ recht klar unterscheiden,
Gleich zwei Frauenaktionen fanden während des Ministerrats auf dem Wiener Ballhausplatz statt. Die Grünen präsentierten Plakate, welche die Chefs anderer Parteien mit langen Haaren zeigten, und „Femme Fiscale“ forderte „Halbe/halbe bei der Steuerreform“. Während andere Regierungsmitglieder die Kundgebung vor dem Bundeskanzleramt nur im Vorbeifahren oder -gehen registrierten, kam Wirtschaftsminister Reinhold Mitterlehner heraus und liess sich mit den „Femmes“ fotografieren.
NASA is gearing up to launch a quartet of new satellites this month, to study a driving force behind solar storms that threaten Earth‘s satellites and power grids.
The satellites, which make up NASA‘s Magnetospheric Multiscale mission (or MMS), will launch on March 12 from Florida‘s Cape Canaveral Air Force Station to study a phenomenon known as magnetic reconnection in the magnetic field around Earth.

(12.September 2001) Asked tonight what the attack meant for relations between the United States and Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, the former prime minister, replied, “It‘s very good.“ Then he edited himself: “Well, not very good, but it will generate immediate sympathy.“ He predicted that the attack would “strengthen the bond between our two peoples, because we‘ve experienced terror over so many decades, but the United States has now experienced a massive hemorrhaging of terror.“
(4.Mai 2011) In the immediate wake of 9-11, the New York Times’ James Bennett asked Netanyahu what the attacks would mean for Israel’s relations with the United States. “It’s very good,” Bibi replied before quickly correcting himself. ”Well, not very good, but it will generate immediate sympathy.” Netanyahu said the attack would ”strengthen the bond between our two peoples, because we’ve experienced terror over so many decades, but the United States has now experienced a massive hemorrhaging of terror.”
Sen. Al Franken (D-MN) has joined eleven more Democrats in announcing that they won’t be attending Netanyahu’s speech to Congress. The total of Democrats who are not attending the speech has jumped to 53.
The Settlement Division represents the worst form of privatization in Israel — the privatization of policymaking powers. It is not an executive body, but a policymaking body, and the fact that policy is made by a body that is not supervised and whose very budget is not clear is apparently no coincidence.
Taxpayer support for an agency fueling the expansion of West Bank settlements rose by more than $100 million last year, making it a top recipient of money being furtively channeled into politicians‘ pet projects, according to an Associated Press analysis.
The World Zionist Organization‘s Settlement Division, which isn‘t a government agency, helps the state get around its own laws.
