By now, you probably think your opinion of Goldman Sachs and its swarm of Wall Street allies has rock-bottomed at raw loathing. You're wrong. There's more. It turns out that the most destructive of all their recent acts has barely been discussed at all. Here's the rest. This is the story of how some of the richest people in the world – Goldman, Deutsche Bank, the traders at Merrill Lynch, and more – have caused the starvation of some of the poorest people in the world. It starts with an apparent mystery. At the end of 2006, food prices across the world started to rise, suddenly and stratospherically. Within a year, the price of wheat had shot up by 80 per cent, maize by 90 per cent, rice by 320 per cent. In a global jolt of hunger, 200 million people – mostly children – couldn't afford to get food any more, and sank into malnutrition or starvation. There were riots in more than 30 countries, and at least one government was violently overthrown. Then, in spring 2008, prices just as mysteriously fell back to their previous level. Jean Ziegler, the UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Food, calls it a silent mass murder, entirely due to man-made actions.Earlier this year I was in Ethiopia, one of the worst-hit countries, and people there remember the food crisis as if they had been struck by a tsunami. My children stopped growing,a woman my age called Abiba Getaneh, told me.I felt like battery acid had been poured into my stomach as I starved. I took my two daughters out of school and got into debt. If it had gone on much longer, I think my baby would have died.Most of the explanations we were given at the time have turned out to be false. It didn't happen because supply fell: the International Grain Council says global production of wheat actually increased during that period, for example. It isn't because demand grew either: as Professor Jayati Ghosh of the Centre for Economic Studies in New Delhi has shown, demand actually fell by 3 per cent. Other factors – like the rise of biofuels, and the spike in the oil price – made a contribution, but they aren't enough on their own to explain such a violent shift.

To understand the biggest cause, you have to plough through some concepts that will make your head ache – but not half as much as they made the poor world's stomachs ache. For over a century, farmers in wealthy countries have been able to engage in a process where they protect themselves against risk. Farmer Giles can agree in January to sell his crop to a trader in August at a fixed price. If he has a great summer, he'll lose some cash, but if there's a lousy summer or the global price collapses, he'll do well from the deal. When this process was tightly regulated and only companies with a direct interest in the field could get involved, it worked.
Then, through the 1990s, Goldman Sachs and others lobbied hard and the regulations were abolished. Suddenly, these contracts were turned into derivatives that could be bought and sold among traders who had nothing to do with agriculture. A market in food speculation was born. So Farmer Giles still agrees to sell his crop in advance to a trader for £10,000. But now, that contract can be sold on to speculators, who treat the contract itself as an object of potential wealth. Goldman Sachs can buy it and sell it on for £20,000 to Deutsche Bank, who sell it on for £30,000 to Merrill Lynch – and on and on until it seems to bear almost no relationship to Farmer Giles's crop at all.If this seems mystifying, it is. John Lanchester, in his superb guide to the world of finance, Whoops! Why Everybody Owes Everyone and No One Can Pay, explains: Finance, like other forms of human behaviour, underwent a change in the 20th century, a shift equivalent to the emergence of modernism in the arts – a break with common sense, a turn towards self-referentiality and abstraction and notions that couldn't be explained in workaday English.Poetry found its break with realism when T S Eliot wrote The Wasteland. Finance found its Wasteland moment in the 1970s, when it began to be dominated by complex financial instruments that even the people selling them didn't fully understand.

So what has this got to do with the bread on Abiba's plate? Until deregulation, the price for food was set by the forces of supply and demand for food itself. (This was already deeply imperfect: it left a billion people hungry.) But after deregulation, it was no longer just a market in food. It became, at the same time, a market in food contracts based on theoretical future crops – and the speculators drove the price through the roof. Here's how it happened. In 2006, financial speculators like Goldmans pulled out of the collapsing US real estate market. They reckoned food prices would stay steady or rise while the rest of the economy tanked, so they switched their funds there. Suddenly, the world's frightened investors stampeded on to this ground. So while the supply and demand of food stayed pretty much the same, the supply and demand for derivatives based on food massively rose – which meant the all-rolled-into-one price shot up, and the starvation began. The bubble only burst in March 2008 when the situation got so bad in the US that the speculators had to slash their spending to cover their losses back home.When I asked Merrill Lynch's spokesman to comment on the charge of causing mass hunger, he said: Huh. I didn't know about that.He later emailed to say: I am going to decline comment.Deutsche Bank also refused to comment. Goldman Sachs were more detailed, saying they sold their index in early 2007 and pointing out that serious analyses ... have concluded index funds did not cause a bubble in commodity futures prices, offering as evidence a statement by the OECD.How do we know this is wrong? As Professor Ghosh points out, some vital crops are not traded on the futures markets, including millet, cassava, and potatoes. Their price rose a little during this period – but only a fraction as much as the ones affected by speculation. Her research shows that speculation was the main cause of the rise.So it has come to this. The world's wealthiest speculators set up a casino where the chips were the stomachs of hundreds of millions of innocent people. They gambled on increasing starvation, and won. Their Wasteland moment created a real wasteland. What does it say about our political and economic system that we can so casually inflict so much pain? If we don't re-regulate, it is only a matter of time before this all happens again. How many people would it kill next time? The moves to restore the pre-1990s rules on commodities trading have been stunningly sluggish. In the US, the House has passed some regulation, but there are fears that the Senate – drenched in speculator-donations – may dilute it into meaninglessness. The EU is lagging far behind even this, while in Britain, where most of this "trade" takes place, advocacy groups are worried that David Cameron's government will block reform entirely to please his own friends and donors in the City.

Only one force can stop another speculation-starvation-bubble. The decent people in developed countries need to shout louder than the lobbyists from Goldman Sachs. The World Development Movement is launching a week of pressure this summer as crucial decisions on this are taken: text WDM to 82055 to find out what you can do. The last time I spoke to her, Abiba said: We can't go through that another time. Please – make sure they never, never do that to us again.j.hari@independent.co.uk

Barroso says future of EU depends on economic governance

Parliament delays crucial vote on European financial supervision
ANDREW WILLIS Today JULY 7,10 @ 09:23 CET


EUOBSERVER / STRASBOURG - MEPs have decided to delay a key vote on legislation setting up a new European financial supervisory framework, giving negotiators more time to reduce the policy gap between parliament and member states. Instead of voting on the overall legislative package on Wednesday (7 July), parliament will adopt a political declaration outlining its position regarding a series of new EU authorities to monitor Europe's banking, insurance and securities sectors.
Negotiators will then continue tough discussions with member states, represented by the Belgian EU presidency, so that the new laws can be agreed during a first reading, rather than the inevitable two if Wednesday's vote had gone ahead. European Commissioner Olli Rehn welcomed the decision. While I somehow regret that parliament will not be able to vote ... now, I am still delighted by the clear willingness shown by all to reach an agreement by September,he told MEPs on Tuesday. All sides are aware that a 1 January, 2011, deadline to have the new system up and running is in danger of slipping, creating a potential embarrassment as the United States prepares to push ahead with its own similar reforms later this month.MEPs made a number of concessions in late-night talks on Monday evening in a bid to close the gap with national governments, several of which are highly wary of handing the three new watchdogs tough powers to oversee Europe's financial sector.The package of legislation also involves the setting up a new European Systemic Risk Board (ESRB) to monitor for the build up of risks in the bloc's financial system as a whole.

The UK in particular does not want the three European authorities to be able to make decisions over the heads of national regulators, argueing that this could impinge on a member states' fiscal autonomy, forcing it to carry out a bank recapitalisation against its will, for example.EU leaders reached a political compromise in December, but MEPs subsequently slammed the deal as essentially giving national capitals a veto over decisions made by the authorities.Euro-deputies insist that the EU-level bodies must be given sufficient decision-making clout if Europe is to avoid a repeat of the recent financial crisis.The Council does not accept the direct supervision of European supervisory authorities and it does not accept binding decisions [by EU bodies] if there is a dispute between national supervisors, the parliament's Liberal leader, Guy Verhofstadt, explained on Monday evening after the talks broke down.

Concessions

The impasse comes despite suggestions that MEPs are willing to soften their demands in a number of areas, including their calls to have the new bodies based in Frankfurt, home of the European Central Bank. Another concession could entail allowing national governments to be the ones to decide when Europe's financial sector was in an 'emergency situation', a declaration that would confer on the ERSB extraordinary powers such as the ability to ban certain financial products or practices.MEPs had originally hope the ERSB or the European Commission could make the emergency call.Speaking in parliament on Tuesday, the EU's internal market and financial services commissioner, Michel Barnier, ramped up the pressure on member states to come to an agreement.The ball is in their court, said Mr Barnier, stressing that other EU legislation, including the regulation of credit rating agencies, depended on the swift implementation of the new authorities.This week's breakdown in talks means the topic is likely to gain a prominent position on the agenda of next week's meeting of EU finance ministers in Brussels.

MEPs look to new data protection battle with US
VALENTINA POP Today JULY 7,10 @ 09:25 CET


EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS – After having forced extra privacy provisions into an EU-US deal on bank data snoops, the European Parliament is bracing itself for an even tougher battle on US access to personal information on air passengers.The EU parliament came to prominence in February when it used its new Lisbon Treaty powers to veto international agreements involving transfers of data by striking down the so-called Swift deal.The Swift pact - which allows US agents to sift EU bank data for evidence of terrorist financing - is now expected to pass a second vote on Thursday (8 July) with no problems after the EU commission inserted extra privacy provisions.

But an upcoming vote on the Passenger Name Record (PNR) scheme, which obliges every airline flying into or via the US to hand in all personal data on its passengers, is likely to prove tricky.The vote on the PNR will be more difficult, because our objections are stronger, Dutch Liberal MEP Sophie in't Veld, the parliament's rapporteur on PNR, told Euobserver after returning from an exploratory visit to the US last week.Similar to the bank data arrangement, PNR was set up in the aftermath of the 2001 terrorist attacks on Washington and New York, initially as a provisional deal which became a fully-fledged agreement. An EU court struck down the pact in 2006 after the European Parliament challenged its legal basis. A new deal was put in place in 2007 for seven years, but after the coming into force of the Lisbon Treaty, the legislature's consent is needed afresh.Ms in't Veld explained that instead of striking down PNR shortly after the entry into force of Lisbon last December, MEPs have given the EU commission the chance to first draw up a general mandate on PNR agreements and civil liberties safeguards which cane be used to amend the US pact. The commission proposals are due in autumn. We agreed to postpone the vote as a courtesy gesture, but that means we need an improved deal. All I hope is they are sensible enough to involve the parliament [in crafting the new mandate],Ms in't Veld said.Aware that the implications of a No vote would be greater than in the Swift case, with European carriers losing their licence to fly into the US, Ms in't Veld said she hope[s] it doesn't come to it.As it stands, the PNR deal allows US police, FBI and other intelligence gathering agencies to look at the personal data not only in terrorism cases, but also for serious crimes - a disputed term, which in the US refers to cross-border crimes punishable by at least three years in prison. When in one incident a child was taken back to Europe by its non-custodial parent, US authorities tracked the two down via PNR on charges of child abduction, despite the fact that in the EU this is not considered a serious crime.

We have to take a close look at the proportionality of this program. It's tough to asses, we are only given anecdotal cases, but there is a big difference between looking for known suspects and searching for potential criminals, the Dutch MEP said. Another sticking point is the data retention period of 15 years for all personal profiles, which are set up automatically whenever someone books a transatlantic flight, as well as the difficulty of changing or deleting data, for instance if a person is mistakenly put on a watch list.According to US officials, around 2,000 suspects are apprehended yearly thanks to the PNR scheme. PNR is an important tool. Last year, one third of the indiviuals identified as being involved in a nexus of terrorism came from PNR data, David Heyman, a senior advisor on counter-terrorism policies in the Department of Homeland Security told journalists in Washington during a briefing on 21 June.He said so far the European Commission has not indicated it wants to renegotiate the agreement, but added that the Obama administration is fully aware of the new powers acquired by the European Parliament.

We are aware of the post-Lisbon institutional changes. Europe is a complicated place, there are multiple layers of government, but the US is fully engaged with the EU,he said.

Record heat roasts US east by Sebastian Smith Sebastian Smith – Tue Jul 6, 7:49 pm ET

NEW YORK (AFP) – New York roasted in record temperatures Tuesday as a heat wave rolled across the eastern United States, pushing power companies to the limit and driving residents to municipal cooling centers.The National Weather Service measured 103 degrees Fahrenheit (39.45 Celsius) in Central Park in mid-Manhattan, easily breaking the 101 degrees record set for July 6 back in 1999.Soaring temperatures, often in the triple-digit range, also afflicted Washington, DC; Richmond, Virginia; Philadelphia, Pennsylvavia; and reached as far as Montreal, Canada.Electricity use surged through the densely populated eastern seaboard of the United States region as office buildings reopened after the long July 4th Independence Day weekend.Con Ed, a major utility company in the New York area, urged energy conservation during what was expected to be record demand for power, with customers putting air conditioners on overdrive and raiding freezers and fridges for refreshments.The National Weather Service issued a heat advisory, saying that heat and high humidity could prove dangerous for young children and the elderly.The NWS warned residents to drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out of the sun and check up on relatives and neighbors.Excessive heat advisories also were posted in New York City and Philadelphia, where authorities opened cooling stations -- air-conditioned rooms in schools and other neighborhood buildings where residents could get out of the cauldron.

New York's health and emergency management departments issued heat tips including keeping strenuous activity to between 4:00 and 7:00 am.The city government suggested residents without air conditioning at home either visit cooling centers or spend the day in the mall, museum or movie theater.For millions of children on summer vacation, splashing in city fountains and the time-honored option of tapping into fire hydrants provided instant relief.In a bid to prevent the illegal opening of hydrants, New York fire houses were issuing spray caps designed to keep the gush to a manageable level.Heather Buchman, a meteorologist for AccuWeather.com, warned on the website of a dangerous heat wave both for people and infrastructure.In addition to putting stress on people and their health, the intense heat will also place a higher demand on power grids due increased usage of air conditioning. Power outages could result in some communities, putting people at an even greater risk for developing heat-related illnesses, she said.New York State Governor David Paterson recommended New Yorkers reduce electricity use during the peak hours of 1:00 and 7:00pm.In August 2003 the entire US northeast and part of Canada were plunged into darkness when the power grid collapsed in one of the biggest outages in history.

Easterners seek respite as temps soar above 100 By JIM FITZGERALD and DAVID B. CARUSO, Associated Press Writers – Tue Jul 6, 5:38 pm ET

NEW YORK – The East Coast cooked under an unforgiving sun Tuesday as record-toppling temperatures soared to 100 or higher from Virginia to Massachusetts, utility companies cranked out power to cool the sweating masses and the unlucky sought any oasis they could find.The temperature hit 103 degrees in New York City and 102 in Philadelphia, breaking records for the day, both set in 1999. The temperature also soared past the century mark in Boston, Washington and Newark, N.J., and broke records in Providence, R.I., and Hartford, Conn.In downtown Philadelphia, pedestrians and drivers appeared to move a little more slowly amid the high humidity, blazing sun and baking sidewalks. Robert McCarron, 44, wore a navy suit and tie as he walked four blocks from a downtown subway station to an office building where he was due for a job interview.If I was going to a job, you'd better believe I wouldn't be wearing a suit, he said.This is rough, and it's only going to get hotter.After an extended Fourth of July weekend when temperatures inched into at least the 90s from Maine to Texas, The National Weather Service issued heat advisories until Wednesday night for much of the Northeast and mid-Atlantic, including an excessive heat warning for the Philadelphia area.

With people cranking up their air conditioning, energy officials predicted near-record demand for power. Utilities and regional electrical system operators cited ample generation capacity and expected no major blackouts, though, and just a smattering of power failures were reported.Even so, those without air conditioning were left to cope as they could. On the baking streets of the Bronx, 14-year-old Miguel Pena and 13-year-old Vincent Quiles walked their bicycles up a steep hill, white handkerchiefs around their heads to keep the sweat out of their eyes.Man, this stinks,Miguel said. We just got out of school and this is supposed to be when we have fun, but this is too much. We thought it would be cooler on the bike, but now we're going home. It's just too hot.Added Vincent: You can't breathe out here.The hot air is sitting over the top of us, and it's not really going to budge much for the next day or two,said Brian Korty, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Camp Springs, Md. After that, he said, a system coming in off the Atlantic Ocean would bring in cooler weather.Authorities in some places Tuesday began calling the hot stretch a heat wave, a phenomenon defined by at least three consecutive days of temperatures of 90 or above. Newark handily beat that threshold Tuesday, hitting at least 100 for the third day in a row.

It was so hot that even machines had to slow down. Transportation officials cut the speed of commuter trains in suburban Washington when the tracks got too hot because extreme heat can cause welded rails to bend under pressure.Workers at the Marine Mammal Stranding Center in Brigantine, N.J., used tubs of ice cubes to help four sick or weak seals keep cool.It wasn't much easier on animal lovers. In Massachusetts, Katie Wright was determined to follow through on her promise to take her children to a zoo.It's pretty ridiculous, Wright said as her 3-year-old son Jackson and 2-year-old daughter Emery watched owls and hawks at the Massachusetts Audubon's Drumlin Farm Wildlife Sanctuary in Lincoln.But we wanted to get out, so we brought hats, sunscreen, extra water and then promised the kids lunch at an air-conditioned restaurant.At his Manhattan newsstand, a steel kiosk that soaks up sun like a sponge, vendor Sam Doctor said the only way to keep cool was to splash his head with water, but he acknowledged that his system wouldn't last. Both of his soda-cooling refrigerators had already conked out by midmorning.When it's 100 degrees out there, it's 110 in here,he said, still smiling as he served customers.In Philadelphia, where the temperature was in the 80s before 7 a.m., 45-year-old Davey Adams waited in a subway station that was stagnant even before the morning commute began in earnest. He had spent the weekend in air-conditioned bliss at his son's house in New Jersey but had to return to his job Tuesday as a forklift driver in a warehouse. He said he planned to use cold water and a washcloth draped over his head to keep cool.

In New York, 13 firefighters were treated at a hospital after suffering dehydration and exhaustion while battling a blaze in Queens. The 42-year-old lieutenant governor of Massachusetts spent Monday night in a hospital after marching in five parades in 90-degree heat. Deaths blamed on the heat included a 92-year-old Philadelphia woman whose body was found Monday and a homeless woman found lying next to a car Sunday in suburban Detroit.In Washington, where the thermometer climbed to 100 degrees by mid-afternoon, President Barack Obama warned reporters about to leave the Oval Office: Stay cool out there. Hydrate.Even the queen of England had to cope after landing in New York during the hottest part of the day on her first visit to the city in more than three decades. The 84-year-old monarch addressed the United Nations, then paid tribute to victims of the Sept. 11 attacks.Contributing to this report were Associated Press writers Eva Dou, Verena Dobnik and Colleen Long in New York; Jeff McMillan and JoAnn Loviglio in Philadelphia; Geoff Mulvihill in Haddonfield, N.J.; Mark Pratt in Lincoln, Mass.; and Lauren Sausser in Washington.

Teen swept away in creek amid Okla. City flooding
Tue Jul 6, 10:44 pm ET


OKLAHOMA CITY – Emergency crews rescued stranded motorists and several children in a house trailer from flooded Oklahoma City streets but were searching for a teenage boy swept away by a creek.Oklahoma City Police say two teens were swept away by high water Tuesday when they either jumped or fell into the creek at a city park.A 14-year-old was rescued downstream, but his 13-year-old companion hadn't been found Tuesday evening.The National Weather Service issued a flash flood warning for several counties in the area after a storm system quickly dumped 2 inches of rain on some parts of the region. Some streets and parts of an interstate were closed.
Earlier, six people suffered minor injuries when high winds collapsed a tent that was to house a concert at an area casino.

BP's Hayward flies to Mideast to meet partners By ADAM SCHRECK, AP Business Writer - JULY 7,10

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates – BP's embattled CEO is in Abu Dhabi to meet business partners amid speculation that the oil giant is looking to drum up cash to cover clean up costs from the Gulf of Mexico oil spill.Chief Executive Tony Hayward arrived in the Emirati capital Tuesday and would be staying a couple of days, BP spokesman Andrew Gowers said. He would not say whether Hayward planned to sit down with the region's powerful investment funds.He's visiting partners as he does from time to time. He's conducting normal business, Gowers said.Hayward has been criticized for his handling of the oil spill in the U.S., and in recent days has traveled to other countries where BP operates to reassure the company's partners of its commitments.BP has a long-standing partnership with the Abu Dhabi National Oil Co., which is responsible for producing crude oil in the Arab emirate. Abu Dhabi is the capital of the seven-state UAE federation, and holds the bulk of the OPEC member's oil wealth.Hayward's visit comes as speculation swirls that BP might be looking for investment partners from the oil-rich Middle East.Abu Dhabi is home to some of the Arab Gulf's most influential sovereign wealth funds. BP shares rose earlier in the week amid reports that the company was reaching out to Gulf funds about investment opportunities in an attempt to fend off possible takeover bids.

The company said this week it would welcome new investors but had no plans to issue any new shares to help pay for the oil spill.BP shares have lost about half their value since the Deepwater Horizon oil rig exploded in April, causing the worst offshore oil spill in U.S. history.Gowers declined to say exactly who Hayward would be meeting with in Abu Dhabi or where he was headed next.He may go somewhere else. But we're not commenting on where he goes ahead of time,he said.Hayward arrived in Abu Dhabi from the capital of oil-rich Azerbaijan, where he tried to calm fears BP might sell assets there to help pay for the spill clean up. While in Baku, Hayward met with Azerbaijan President Ilkham Aliyev.The BP CEO also met with Russian officials in Moscow last week. Following those meetings, an official at the company's Russian joint venture TNK-BP said that firm would consider buying some of BP's assets if they were put up for sale.

Tony Blair tipped to take over as chairman of crisit-hit BP
By Bob Roberts 23/06/2010


Tony Blair was yesterday being touted as the man to rescue stricken BP.City experts reckon appointing the ex Prime Minister as chairman is the first step to saving the company after the Gulf of Mexico oil spill disaster.They highlighted his huge popularity in America and his close links to BP as Premier.City expert Matthew Lynn said: Anyone who watched chief executive Tony Hayward struggle to find a voice while being skewered by Congress last week would have realised the company needs to step up its debating skills by about 1,000%.This is essentially a political crisis, so why not a politician? Traders are already betting on Blair replacing chairman Carl-Henric Svanberg.Since leaving office, the ex-PM has worked as a Middle East peace broker and has a number of directorships.BP's reputation continues to plummet as fast as its share price, which hit a 13-year low at 334 yesterday - a 50% plunge since the Deepwater Horizon spill began.In yet another PR humiliation at the weekend, Mr Hayward went sailing round the Isle of Wight as the stricken rig continued to spew oil off Louisiana. He has now handed day-to-day responsibility for the disaster to managing director Bob Dudley.Chief of staff Steve Westwell was heckled by Greenpeace protesters at an oil conference in central London yesterday. Celebrities including Sting and Robert Redford have appeared in a fundraiser on America's Larry King Live Show to help the clean-up.

Monday, Jul 5, 2010 13:06 ET The BP/Government police state
By Glenn Greenwald ABC/CNN In June, Adm. Thad Allen told ABC, Media will have uninhibited access anywhere we're doing operations.The new rule contradicts that statement.(updated below - Update II [Tues.])


Last week, I interviewed Mother Jones' Mac McClelland, who has been covering the BP oil spill in the Gulf since the first day it happened. She detailed how local police and federal officials work with BP to harass, impede, interrogate and even detain journalists who are covering the impact of the spill and the clean-up efforts. She documented one incident which was particularly chilling of an activist who -- after being told by a local police officer to stop filming a BP facility because BP didn't want him filming -- was then pulled over after he left by that officer so he could be interrogated by a BP security official. McClelland also described how BP has virtually bought entire Police Departments which now do its bidding:One parish has 57 extra shifts per week that they are devoting entirely to, basically, BP security detail, and BP is paying the sheriff's office.Today, an article that is a joint collaboration between PBS' Frontline and ProPublica reported that a BP refinery in Texas spewed tens of thousands of pounds of toxic chemicals into the skies two weeks before the company's rig in the Gulf collapsed. Accompanying that article was this sidebar report:A photographer taking pictures for these articles, was detained Friday while shooting pictures in Texas City, Texas.

The photographer, Lance Rosenfield, said that shortly after arriving in town, he was confronted by a BP security officer, local police and a man who identified himself as an agent of the Department of Homeland Security. He was released after the police reviewed the pictures he had taken on Friday and recorded his date of birth, Social Security number and other personal information.The police officer then turned that information over to the BP security guard under what he said was standard procedure, according to Rosenfield.

No charges were filed.

Rosenfield, an experienced freelance photographer, said he was detained shortly after shooting a photograph of a Texas City sign on a public roadway. Rosenfield said he was followed by a BP employee in a truck after taking the picture and blocked by two police cars when he pulled into a gas station.According to Rosenfield, the officers said they had a right to look at photos taken near secured areas of the refinery, even if they were shot from public property. Rosenfield said he was told he would be taken in if he declined to comply.ProPublica's Paul Steiger said that the reporting team told law enforcement agents that they were working on a deadline for this story about that facility, and that even if DHS agents believed they had a legitimate reason to scrutinize the actions and photographs of this photographer, there was no reason that should have included sharing them with a representative of a private company.These are true police state tactics, and it's now clear that it is part of a pattern. It's been documented for months now that BP and government officials have been acting in unison to block media coverage of the area; Newsweek reported this in late May:As BP makes its latest attempt to plug its gushing oil well, news photographers are complaining that their efforts to document the slow-motion disaster in the Gulf of Mexico are being thwarted by local and federal officials -- working with BP -- who are blocking access to the sites where the effects of the spill are most visible. More than a month into the disaster, a host of anecdotal evidence is emerging from reporters, photographers, and TV crews in which BP and Coast Guard officials explicitly target members of the media, restricting and denying them access to oil-covered beaches, staging areas for clean-up efforts, and even flyovers.

The very idea that government officials are acting as agents of BP (of all companies) in what clearly seem to be unconstitutional acts to intimidate and impede the media is infuriating. Obviously, the U.S. Government and BP share the same interest -- preventing the public from knowing the magnitude of the spill and the inadequacy of the clean-up efforts -- but this creepy police state behavior is intolerable. In this latest case, the journalists were not even focused on the spill itself, but on BP's other potentially reckless behavior with other refineries, and yet there are DHS agents and local police officials acting as BP's personal muscle to detain, interrogate, and threaten a photographer. BP's destructive conduct, and the government's complicity, have slowly faded from public attention, and there clearly seem to be multiple levels of law enforcement devoted to keeping it that way, no matter how plainly illegal their tactics are.

UPDATE: More evidence here (h/t bamage):Journalists who come too close to oil spill clean-up efforts without permission could find themselves facing a $40,000 fine and even one to five years in prison under a new rule instituted by the Coast Guard late last week.It's a move that outraged observers have decried as an attack on First Amendment rights. And CNN's Anderson Cooper describes the new rules as making it very easy to hide incompetence or failure. . . .[S]ince oil spill response operations apparently covers much of the clean-up effort on the beaches, CNN's [] Cooper describes the rule as banning reporters from anywhere we need to be. . . .A willful violation of the new rule could result in Class D felony charges, which carry a penalty of one to five years in prison under federal law.The new rule appears to contradict the promises made by Adm. Thad Allen, the official leading the Coast Guard's response to the oil spill.Media will have uninhibited access anywhere we're doing operations, except for two things, if it's a security or safety problem, Allen told ABC News in June. . . .[T]o create a blanket rule that everyone has to stay 65 feet away from boom and boats, that doesn't sound like transparency, [said Cooper].The rule has come under severe criticism not only from journalists but from observers and activists involved in the Gulf Coast clean-up.

With this, the Gulf Coast cleanup operation has now entered a weird Orwellian reality where the news is shaped, censored and controlled by the government in order to prevent the public from learning the truth about what's really happening,writes Mike Adams at NaturalNews. . . .Reporters have been complaining for weeks about BP, the Department of Homeland Security and the Coast Guard working to keep reporters away from wrenching images of oil-covered birds and oil-soaked beaches.We've frequently heard excuses that the Federal Government has little power to do anything to BP, but they certainly seem to have ample power to do a great deal for them. Public indifference about such things is the by-product of those who walk around like drones repeating the mantra that political officials know what's best about what must be kept secret, and that the Threat of Terrorism (which is what is exploited to justify such acts) means we must meekly acquiesce to such powers in the name of Staying Safe.

UPDATE II: From The New York Times, June 9, 2010:Journalists struggling to document the impact of the oil rig explosion have repeatedly found themselves turned away from public areas affected by the spill, and not only by BP and its contractors, but by local law enforcement, the Coast Guard and government officials.To some critics of the response effort by BP and the government, instances of news media being kept at bay are just another example of a broader problem of officials’ filtering what images of the spill the public sees.This is clearly a deliberate and systematic pattern of preventing access and coverage that has been going on since the beginning of the spill. And, as we find in so many realms, it's impossible to know where government actions end and corporate actions begin because the line basically does not exist.

EU-Chinese misunderstanding on the rise, senior Beijing official warns
ANDREW WILLIS Today JULY 7,10 @ 09:28 CET


EUOBSERVER / STRASBOURG - China's deputy foreign minister has warned that the level of misunderstanding between Brussels and Beijing is on the rise, despite the EU's new architectural framework, designed in part to improve the bloc's dialogue with the international community. Ms Fu Ying made the comments in an interview with EUobserver in Strasbourg on Tuesday (6 July), ahead of a series of meetings with senior European Parliament officials.I think the misunderstanding is strong on the European side and is growing on the Chinese side as well, said Ms Fu, whose portfolio includes handling her country's relations with Europe and Taiwan. Since 2008, the perceived China-bashing sentiment of European countries has hurt China and Chinese people, explained Beijing's most senior female official, whose previous positions include three years as ambassador to the UK. And while China hopes for an improvement under the Lisbon Treaty, the EU's new rulebook that creates a stronger foreign policy supremo in the shape of Catherine Ashton, so far there has been little tangible evidence of change.I'm not saying the new position is not working, it [simply] hasn't started very much yet, said Ms Fu of the seven-month old post, conceding that she has never spoken to Ms Ashton over the phone to discuss bilateral issues.Despite strong trade ties, a number of recurring issues continue to create tension between the two sides.Among them, Europe's perceived unwillingness to grant China market economy status, an escalating number of trade disputes and persistent criticism of the country's human rights record, especially from MEPs, continue to vex Chinese officials.This comes despite the fact that some NGOs say Europe's criticism of conditions in the autonomous regions of Tibet and Xinjiang has been increasingly overtaken by commercial interests.At the same time, European businesses say they receive unfair treatment when operating inside the Asian powerhouse economy, while the valuation of China's renminbi currency has attracted harsh criticism since an effective currency peg with the dollar was put in place in 2008.

Renminbi

US and EU pressure on the currency issue appeared to bear fruit last month, when China announced its intention to allow the renminbi greater flexibility to appreciate.This decision however, insists Ms Fu, reflects the easing of the global economic recession rather than external influences.We don't like the pressure from outside because Chinese people are now asking why we changed our currency stance because somebody told us to, she said.The conflicting nature of domestic and international demands is also evident in market access disputes.In April, the EU Chamber of Commerce in China said growing nationalist sentiment expressed by Chinese internet users is driving the country's protectionist policies at the expense of foreign firms.Taken together, the litany of potential flashpoints between the two sides seems likely to keep Ms Fu busy in the coming years, with Europe's tendency to hand out advice also grating against Beijing.Europe believes it has the best and that the whole world should copy it, although after a long period of time, many countries that did copy it are not so successful, said Ms Fu.But Europe does not lose its confidence, you keep on lecturing.

Iran Past Point of No Return, to Open Nuke Plant in September
by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu JULY 7,10


Iran’s nuclear chief Ali Akbar Salehi announced Wednesday that the Islamic Republic will open its first nuclear power plant at Bushehr in September, passing the point of no return.Salehi, deputy to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and also director of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, told the semi-official Fars News Agency, We hope that, as our Russian friends and Iranian colleagues have said, the reactor will launch operation in September. We feel that we have reached a no-return point, and from now on the ground is paved for the final launch of the reactor.He said the plant’s reactor passed the last pre-launch test on Wednesday and it is ready to come on-line later in the summer.Russia has been building the nuclear facility since 1994, and its vested interest in Iran’s nuclear power plant has conflicted with Western pressures to back harsh sanctions aimed at halting the unsupervised development of nuclear projects. China has invested heavily in several plants under construction and has balked at tough sanctions.Iran has denied charges by Israel and the United States that Iran is using developing capability to produce a nuclear warhead that can be used to attack Israel. Ahmadinejad previously has said that Israel is a cancer and should be wiped off the map.Iran recently announced it is producing 20 percent grade enriched uranium - a key ingredient for a nuclear weapon, but still far below the necessary quality.

Conveyor Belt to Terror not Banned in US
by Hillel Fendel JULY 7,10


Hizb uh-Tahrir, the radical Islamic Party of Liberation that is outlawed in Syria, Lebanon, Egypt, Libya, Saudi Arabia, Germany, Holland, and other countries, operates freely in the United States.Counter-terrorism expert lecturer and radio talk show host Gadi Adelman, writing for FamilySecurityMatters.org , says that the organization, known as HT for short, was to hold its second annual conference next week, entitled, Emerging World Order: Global Campaign for Khilafah (Caliphate). However, at nearly the last minute, host venue Chicago Marriott Oak Brook hotel canceled the event. HT plans to hold it elsewhere before the end of the month, though it has not yet announced a location.Last year’s event was entitled The rise of Islam and the fall of Capitalism.Brigitte Gabriel, founder of ACT! for America, has said that HT focuses on recruiting boys between the ages of 8 and 18 years old to become suicide bombers and Jihadists to advance Islam throughout the world.Born in a Lebanese Christian community, Gabriel’s home was destroyed by radical Islamists, about whom she later wrote the books Because They Hate and They Must be Stopped.Walid Phares and Muslim democratic leader Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, who called HT a conveyor belt to terror, are among many who have spoken out against HT as well.HT came close to being banned in the UK in August 2005, Adelman writes,when then-Prime Minister Tony Blair announced his intentions to ban the group.That was until threats of riots made him drop the idea.HT wants to overthrow every country the world over to instill a Global Caliphate,seeks to train teenagers for jihad, has reportedly been involved in threats against Jews, Hindus, and has reportedly threatened Muslim university officials. HT rejects the gender equality movement for women’s rights, saying that women must pursue a global Islamic caliphate instead. HT calls for the end of democracy and its replacement by Sharia law, as well as death for anyone who leaves Islam.Family Security Matters editor Adrian Morgan wrote back in 2007: It is difficult to believe that a group that threatens not only the Middle East but the West, too, should go without condemnation by the United States, as if it were the Girl Scouts.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

Obama Backs Down from Changing US Policy on Israeli Ambiguity
by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu JULY 7,10


U.S. President Barack Obama has climbed down from the limb on which he changed a long-standing American policy that accepts Israel’s ambiguity on whether it has nuclear capability.He clearly stated a retreat from his position on Tuesday, telling Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu that the United States will not encourage a Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) conference unless all countries feel confident that they can attend and on condition that Israel is not singled out.Several weeks ago, President Obama ignored Israeli warnings and backed a United Nations resolution for a nuclear-free Middle East that singled out Israel but did not mention Iran. In his remarks following Tuesday’s 80-minute meeting with Netanyahu at the White House, the president implied that he will continue the policy of accepting Israel’s ambiguity. President Obama stated. We strongly believe that, given its size, its history, the region that it’s in, and the threats that are leveled against us – against it, that Israel has unique security requirements. It’s got to be able to respond to threats or any combination of threats in the region.Another strong indication of the retreat came from a report Wednesday by Army Radio, which said that the United States sent Israel a secret letter that respects Israel’s being a non-signatory to the Nuclear Proliferation Treaty (NPT). The IDF-operated station said the letter to Israel guarantees the sale of materials used for nuclear technology and which usually are not transferred to countries that have not signed the NPT.

Israel's not having signed the NPT has been used by Iran as a response to international demands that it submit to United Nations inspection of its nuclear projects, which are assumed by Israel and the United States to include the production of a nuclear warhead.The Army Radio report said that the secret letter specifically includes terminology that the United States considers Israel to be a responsible state that behaves in moderation relative to its capabilities.A U.S. embassy spokesman in Tel Aviv told Israel National News, We don’t comment on diplomatic correspondence and whether it exists or not.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

Israel keeping flotilla ships until inquiry ends By IAN DEITCH, Associated Press Writer - JULY 7,10

JERUSALEM – Israel will hold on to the six ships from the international flotilla that sought to break Israel's blockade of the Gaza Strip at least until it completes its investigation into a deadly raid on one of the vessels, the Defense Ministry said Wednesday.Israel towed the boats to a northern port days after naval commandos stormed the ships, killing nine Turkish activists on board the lead vessel. Some boats remain moored in Haifa port with cargoes of cement and steel still on board, a Defense Ministry spokesman said.Although Israel has said the soldiers acted in self defense, the bloodshed provoked an international outcry that forced Israel to it to ease the Gaza blockade.But it has rebuffed pressure from the United Nations and Turkey to agree to an international inquiry. Instead, it has formed its own commission, headed by a retired Israeli Supreme Court Justice Yaakov Turkel, to conduct a limited investigation of the raid. Its deliberations are expected to take months.One thing is certain. Nothing will be done with these ships until after the Turkel inquiry because they might want to inspect them, Defense Ministry spokesman Shlomo Dror said.

On Sunday, Channel 10 TV showed footage of Israeli fisherman fishing off the flotilla's Turkish lead ship, the Mavi Marmara. All the deaths during the raid took place on that vessel, where activists clashed with the commandos. Each side has accused the other of attacking first.The raid has battered already strained relations between Israel and Turkey, once a strong ally in the Muslim world.Ceylam Ozem, a spokeswoman for the Turkish Embassy in Tel Aviv, said her government has asked from day one for the ships to be returned. They are Turkish owned. The Israelis have still not answered our demand, she said.Israel, along with Egypt, imposed the blockade on Gaza after the Islamic militant Hamas, which has killed hundreds of Israelis, violently wrested control of Gaza in 2007.Hamas authorities on Wednesday arrested five suspected collaborators with Israel in a campaign against informers in the Gaza Strip, a Hamas security official said. The overnight arrest raids began three months after two collaborators were executed.Collaboration is viewed as an especially serious offense in Palestinian society.The Hamas official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the arrests.

In another sign of Hamas' stranglehold on the territory, the group said it blocked what would have been the first shipment of West Bank newspapers since the group's June 2007 takeover.The West Bank, run by rivals of Hamas, has banned Hamas newspapers since 2007.Also Wednesday, the United Nations said in a new report that Israel's West Bank separation barrier is making it increasingly difficult for Palestinians living nearby to reach farm lands or health services.Farmers who own land in the area between the barrier and the Israeli frontier have to pass through gates and need to obtain special permits from the Israeli military.The U.N. said the permits are increasingly difficult to obtain and the 57 gates are not always open. This has severely curtailed agricultural practice and undermined rural livelihoods, the report said.Israel started building the barrier in 2003 after a series of Palestinian suicide attacks that killed hundreds of Israelis. Israel says the barrier remains an important security element. Israeli Foreign Ministry spokesman Yigal Palmor rejected the report. We have already enough proof that (the U.N.) would much rather see more bombings on Israeli territory than acknowledge that anything Israel does to prevent these attacks could be legitimate,he said. In July 2004, the International Court of Justice said in an advisory ruling that the barrier must be tore down because it runs through occupied land. Israel rejected that. AP correspondent Ibrahim Barzak in Gaza City, Gaza Strip and Karin Laub in Jerusalem contributed to this report.

Fueled by White House success, Netanyahu heads to UN by Steve Weizman – JULY 7,10

WASHINGTON (AFP) – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu headed to the United Nations Wednesday to meet UN chief Ban Ki-moon, saying he could perform miracles to hammer out a peace deal if all sides come together.After his warm White House talks with US President Barack Obama, Netanyahu told ABC television he wanted to reach an agreement acceptable to Israelis with Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas.We want President Abbas to grasp my hand, get into a room, shake it, sit down and negotiate a final settlement of peace between Israel and the Palestinians, he told the US news channel.He added he was confident a Middle East peace deal, which has eluded successive Israeli, Palestinian and US leaders for over six decades, could be struck.

Don't be so skeptical,he said.Raise your hopes. It's summer time and we can perform miracles if we set our sights to them.Israel was Wednesday hailing a new chapter of warm ties with the United States after the upbeat summit between Netanyahu and Obama.
A president now working with the premier, not against him, thrilled the right-wing Jerusalem Post. "This time, publicly at least, there were none of the harsh demands, none of the hectoring, none of the patronizing.But the Israeli premier may find the UN secretary general less forthcoming during their talks later Wednesday.Ban said Tuesday that while Israel's easing of its four-year blockade of the Gaza Strip was welcome, more needed to be done to ease Palestinian hardships.His spokesman noted that Ban "has long called for a significant shift in strategy towards meeting the great needs of Gaza's population.Further steps must now follow to meet those needs and to allow the United Nations to accelerate and expand its efforts.The UN chief has demanded Israel lift its blockade of the impoverished Gaza Strip, imposed in the wake of the election victory by Hamas Islamic militants who now control the Palestinian territory.

Israel has so far given the go-ahead for the international community to import construction materials into Gaza. And Netanyahu said Wednesday further steps were under consideration.There are more things we are prepared to do... There are things like additional easing of movements, some questions of economic projects, Netanyahu told ABC.There are quite a few. The point is we are prepared to do them.The change in policy was triggered by the international condemnation of an Israeli commando raid on an aid flotilla trying to break the blockade that led to the deaths of nine Turkish activists on May 31.Israel has set up a commission of inquiry into the events with the participation of British and Canadian observers, but some nations are calling at the UN for a fuller international probe.After Tuesday's White House meeting, Obama said he hoped for direct peace talks to start before the end of September when an Israeli freeze on settlement building is due to expire.I believe that Prime Minister Netanyahu wants peace. I think he's willing to take risks for peace, Obama told reporters. He also strongly disputed suggestions that he had distanced the United States from Israel, sharing a prolonged handshake with the visiting Israeli leader for the cameras. Netanyahu did not say directly whether he would extend the freeze on settlement construction in Arab east Jerusalem, but hinted it was a possibility. I think once we get there realities may change, but I think the most important reality is that we don't stick on all sorts of requirements and grievances, he told ABC.During his talks with Ban, Netanyahu is expected to repeat his call for global support of US-led efforts to keep up diplomatic and economic pressure on Iran.Western powers accuse Tehran of seeking to build an atomic bomb, charges vehemently denied by the Islamic republic.Late Wednesday, Netanyahu will address Jewish leaders in New York and on Thursday he gives a speech to the Council for Foreign Relations and meets with former president Bill Clinton.

Abbas wants Israel sign on borders and security before talks
Wed Jul 7, 8:44 am ET


ADDIS ABABA (AFP) – Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas said Wednesday he wanted an Israeli signal on the key issues of security and borders before heeding US calls for a resumption of direct peace talks.We are ready to go for direct talks if we receive any signals from the Israeli side on two issues, the borders and the security, Abbas said in English during an official visit to Ethiopia.We have presented our proposals to both the Americans and the Israelis and we are waiting for an Israeli impression and reaction,he told reporters after meeting Ethiopian Prime Minister Meles Zenawi.

US President Barack Obama this week expressed hope that direct talks would start before the end of September after a White House meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.Netanyahu says he is ready to meet Abbas at any time and Israeli Defence Minister Ehud Barak said Wednesday he could see direct negotiations getting under way within a few weeks.But the Palestinians have yet to commit to direct talks, accusing Israel of undermining the atmosphere with continuing settlement activity on occupied Palestinian land.Obama said he hoped progress towards direct negotiations from indirect US-brokered proximity talks between Israelis and Palestinians would render an October 1 deadline for ending a partial Israeli settlement freeze irrelevant.My hope is that once direct talks have begun, well before the moratorium has expired, that that will create a climate in which everybody feels a greater investment in success,he said.

A Long Economic Winter Ahead Dr. Rodrigue Tremblay
Opinion Maker July 7, 2010


A State divided into a small number of rich and a large number of poor will always develop a government manipulated by the rich to protect the amenities represented by their property.:Harold Laski (1893-1950), British political theorist, 1930

Money becomes evil not when it is used to buy goods but when it is used to buy power… economic inequalities become evil when they are translated into political inequalities.Samuel Huntington (1927-2008), political scientist… if financial markets are skittish and don’t have confidence in a country’s fiscal soundness, that is also going to undermine our recovery.President Barack Obama, June 25, 2010.Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius, and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction.Albert Einstein (1879-1955) Physicist and Professor, Nobel Prize 1921

The bond market is telling us that there could be hard economic times ahead and that deflation, for the time being, is more of a threat than inflation. -Leading indicators are also pointing to possible economic weakness ahead. -The Euro zone is being pulled apart by the economic asymmetry of its members, the less productive among them (Greece, Spain, Ireland, Portugal and Italy) being unable to keep pace with the very productive German economy. -The U.S. money supply M3 is contracting. -The Chinese bubble is dangerously approaching the bursting point. -And, the deflation of debt all over the place threatens to plunge the world economy into a deflationary tailspin. —In this context, there is a good chance of a double-dip recession next year, in 2011.Readers of this blog know where I stand on this issue. One year ago, on July 10, 2009, when everybody and his uncle was declaring the recession over and the return of business as usual, I wrote a piece announcing that my analysis was pointing out to ten years of economic hardship entitled We are in the Midst of the Great Baby-Boomers Economic Stagnation of 2007-2017 I wrote then that many observers think that prosperity is around the corner and that this recession, like others since World War II, will end as soon as the stock market, as a leading indicator, recovers and people start spending again. This is a myopic view of the current economic big picture.Let us keep in mind that in May of 1930, President Herbert Hoover was also proclaiming that the danger … is safely behind us. This was ten years too early for such a declaration. Just as in the 1930s, the U.S. economy and many part of the world economy suffer from a debt overhang that usually takes at least ten years to correct. When overall debt is four times larger than the economy, as it is the case today and as it was close to being the case in the 1930s, a debt deflation becomes unavoidable.

Economic booms built on a mountain of debt, some of which is fraudulent and speculative debt, tend to end badly. The higher the debt mountain relative to the real economy, the more serious is the following economic meltdown. This is because an unsustainable debt level means that some of the investments and projects thus financed make no economic sense and no sufficient income can be forthcoming to service and repay the debts. The first consequence is excess capacity and falling asset prices. The second consequence is an unavoidable liquidation of debts and a debt deflation. The third consequence is economic stagnation.The danger that accompanies a protracted period of debt-liquidation and debt deflation after a binge of over-indebtedness is well known in economics. In 1933, Yale economist Irving Fisher published his debt-deflation theory of economic depressions. The core of the theory is that over-indebtedness leads to deflation, which in turn leads to an economic contraction. Fisher summarizes the links between debt liquidation and economic contraction in nine interacting steps:

1- Debt liquidation leads to distress selling.
2- Contraction of deposit currency, as bank loans are paid off, and to a slowing down of the velocity of circulation of money.
3- A fall in the level of prices.
4- If the fall of prices is not interfered with by reflation or otherwise, this is followed by greater fall in the net worth of business, precipitating bankruptcies.
5- This leads to a like fall in profits.
6- A reduction in construction, output, trade and in employment of labor results.
7- Losses, bankruptcies and unemployment lead to pessimism and loss of confidence.
8- The result is hoarding and a contraction in bank credits, which contribute in slowing down even more the velocity of circulation of money.
9- The overall deflation causes a fall in the nominal or money interest rates accompanied by a rise in the real or commodity rates of interest as prices fall.

A similar self-reinforcing spiral-down of debt-deflation and economic contraction can be feared in the coming years as the level of debt to the economy goes from about four times the economy to a more manageable two times the economy. In other words, it should not take more than $1.50 or $2 of new debt and credit to generate one dollar of new output. When it takes more debt than that to generate new production, this is an indication that the economy is becoming over-leveraged with debt.Judging by the pronouncements made by leaders at the recent G8 and G20 meetings in June, and their collective commitment to cut governments’ deficits in half by 2013, I don’t think that politicians fully understand the danger presently facing the world economy. In fact, any new shock hitting the world economy, economic or political, risks accelerating the collapse of the debt house of cards, with dire consequences for production and employment.Austerity fiscal measures may raise government efficiency, but they are not what will cushion the real effects of the debt deflation. Both reflationary monetary policies and overall stabilization policies are needed, especially in the banking sector, in order to make sure that producers and employers are not frozen out of new bank credit.

WHAT COULD HAPPEN BECAUSE OF THIS OIL SPILL-LAST 30 MINUTES OF SHOW
http://www.israelnationalnews.com/Radio/News.aspx/2353

Eurobonds could steer the EU out of crisis, regions chief says
VALENTINA POP 05.07.2010 @ 15:55 CET


EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - One way to revive the European economy without burdening national budgets would be to set up eurobonds and use them to finance pan-European transport networks and broadband connections, the head of EU's regional assembly said in an interview.One month into her office, Mercedes Bresso has great ambitions for the Committee of the Regions (CoR), a consultative body of the EU whose main task is to check that the bloc's new laws and regulations deal only with issues which cannot be solved at national, regional or local level.A convinced federalist, the Italian politician is a staunch supporter of the idea of setting up eurobonds.

The EU is asking member states to have tough stability plans that are very difficult to achieve. But via eurobonds, we could finance infrastructure in Europe, railroads, broadband connections, and take the pressure off from the national budgets, Ms Bresso said in a recent interview with EUobserver.Currently the EU is only financing cross-border connections in so-called pan-European transport networks, she noted, calling this a minimal contribution,especially since it is in the EU's interest to have well-functioning, good quality railways and highways.According to estimates by the European Commission, traffic between member states is expected to double by 2020 and the investment required to complete and modernise a true trans-European network amounts to some €500 billion from 2007 to 2020.So why not finance the whole corridor with European bonds? Ms Bresso said. And then have an EU agency, not the member states, as owner of the infrastructure. In this way, the financing of the debt would be made available by the revenues in renting out the infrastructure.Developing such transport and communication networks is essential for regions and cities, in order to boost investments and employment, she added.We need development policies, not only restrictive ones otherwise we'll have deflation and GDP decrease at a moment when Asian and South-American countries are developing very quickly.The Italian Socialist admitted that her federalist ideas might not be palatable for national governments, but expressed her conviction that some sort of common projects are needed at EU level in order to generate revenue.

This is particularly the case with EU's so-called 2020 agenda, adopted by heads of state and government last month and aimed at boosting employment, competitiveness and economic growth, she explained: The 2020 agenda has to be financed by something, member states have no money.Asked if she feared a reduction of regional administrations amid budget-cutting measures, since several German politicians have floated the idea of merging some of the country's 16 regions, Ms Bresso said when you have a crisis, you sometimes have crazy ideas how to save money.Certainly, it is possible that in certain states you have an excessive number of provinces and regions. But democracy at local level is essential.Herself a former president of the Italian region of Piedmont, Ms Bresso had to experience local democracy at work in March when she lost the elections by 9,000 votes against a candidate from the far-right Northern League. She subsequently had to step down from her post as president of the CoR, only two months into her mandate.Once her membership of the CoR was re-defined as a simple regional deputy from Piedmont, Ms Bresso was re-elected president of the CoR on 9 June, her aides saying that she has a clear political mandate to run the institution.

Heat warnings continue across Ontario, Quebec
CTV.ca News Staff Date: Tue. Jul. 6 2010 8:32 AM ET


Keeping cool will be the order of the day Tuesday -- and for much of the week -- as most of Central Canada and northeastern U.S. continues to roast in a nearly week-long heat wave. A southern flow of hot air from the south -- called the Bermuda High -- has blanketed the area and is acting like a heat pump, moving warm, southerly air from the Gulf of Mexico northward. The heat and humidity isn't expected to break until at least Friday, when a cold front is forecast to sweep in and drop temperatures closer to seasonal norms of about 25 or 26 Celsius. Environment Canada senior climatologist Dave Phillips says if it feels like this heat wave is hitting us hard, it's because it's been so long since we've had a long, withering bout of the three H's: heat, humidity and haze. This is the first heat wave in, I think, three years for this area and that's why it's sort of noteworthy... And the humidity is so high, probably because of all that precipitation we had in June, he told CTV's Canada AM Tuesday morning. Phillips notes that while we've already seen a few very hot days across Canada this summer, it's the humidity element that makes the heat so dangerous. In this kind of heat wave we have now, when you add in that humidity factor, the air is just saturated with moisture and the body just can't perspire. So we often see health problems associated with that,he said.

Once again today, Environment Canada has issued smog and humidex advisories for parts of Ontario and Quebec. Humidex values are expected to be in the 40-degree range. The advisory covers southern Ontario and southern Quebec, from Windsor, to Montreal and the St. Lawrence River. Many affected cities have opened special cooling centres and are urging people to use them. Those most at risk of heat stroke, such as young children, seniors, and those on certain medications, should try to spend the day in air-conditioned facilities, such as shopping malls, libraries and community centres. The heat wave has already claimed the life of a homeless woman in suburban Detroit on Sunday.Rob Kuhn from Environment Canada recommends taking precautions on a day like today.Drink a lot of water, a lot of fluids and take it easy if you're working outside or doing anything outside, especially between 12 noon and 6 p.m. because certainly, it's going to be quite hot, he told CTV News Channel Tuesday.And we also note that the UV index across southern Ontario will be 10 or extreme, he said.With so many residents expected to crank up the air conditioning today, power utilities across Ontario, Quebec and the eastern U.S. are preparing for maximum demand, trying to avoid the brief blackout that hit a large swath of Toronto on Monday. An explosion and fire at a transformer station knocked out electricity for more than 300,000 Toronto residents just before 5 p.m. ET, though it's unclear whether a surge in electricity demands sparked the blowout. Nevertheless, the blackout sent thousands of office workers out into the streets, where they found the downtown briefly in chaos from a lack of traffic signals.The blackout was confined to a relatvely small area, because the relay system at the transformer station was able to disconnect the disabled site from the rest of the grid. That helped prevent the ripple effect that occurred in 2003, when a local Ohio outage led to a massive blackout throughout the northeastern U.S. and southern Ontario.

Heat blankets US as workers return after holiday By DEEPTI HAJELA, Associated Press Writer - JULY 6,10

NEW YORK – With a scorching holiday weekend in the rearview mirror, a real summer sizzle is about to wash over parts of the United States.After an extended Fourth of July weekend when temperatures inched into at least the 90s from Maine to Texas and into the Southwest and Death Valley, the mid-Atlantic is embarking on a string of intensely hot days, with temperatures in some places closing in on 100-plus degrees.

Temperatures could reach as high as 102 degrees on Tuesday, meteorologists said, and Wednesday was forecast to be the most humid day of the stretch.And unlike on the long Independence Day weekend, when utilities had lower demand for power, the masses returning to work Tuesday amid the possible record-setting heat across the Northeast threatened to push utilities usage to record levels.Demand was anticipated to increase when offices reopened Tuesday, said Bob McGee, spokesman for the Consolidated Edison utility in New York. Con Ed was preparing for peak usage to break the record set on Aug. 2, 2006, he said.In Philadelphia, the increased load from the heat blew fuses at transformers run by the Peco utility, said spokeswoman Karen Muldoon Geus. About 1,900 customers were without power Tuesday morning, down from about 8,000 on Monday. Davey Adams, 45, was headed back to his job Tuesday morning as a forklift driver at a package company warehouse in Philadelphia that has no air conditioning, just fans.He said he planned to use cold water and a washcloth draped over his head to keep cool.He had spent the weekend at his son's house at the New Jersey shore, where it was too hot even to sit at the beach, he said, so they stayed inside.In the East, warm air is sitting over the top of us, and it's not really going to budge much for the next day or two, Brian Korty, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Camp Springs, Md., said Monday. After that, he said, a system coming in off the Atlantic Ocean would bring in cooler temperatures.

Korty stressed that the danger from increasing temperatures was likely to grow.As the temperature and humidity both get higher, the stress it can put on the human body increases,he said, and therefore the higher the temperature and higher the humidity, the greater the chance of people having problems.Massachusetts Lt. Gov. Tim Murray was hospitalized Monday evening after marching in five parades in 90-degree heat over the weekend and feeling under the weather, his spokesman said. Murray was in good spirits but was to stay overnight at a hospital in Worcester, 40 miles west of Boston, for observation, spokesman Kyle Sullivan said.The weekend heat also was blamed for at least one death.Temperatures that pushed into the mid-90s across much of Michigan claimed the life of a homeless woman found lying next to a car in a suburban Detroit parking lot Sunday afternoon. The Oakland County medical examiner's office told the Detroit Free Press newspaper the woman died of hyperthermia, an abnormally high body temperature.In Indianapolis, which had a high of 90 degrees Sunday, police said they arrested a couple for endangering their 2-year-old daughter by taking her begging in the heat. The parents, who had $98 when arrested, were jailed Monday on child endangerment charges. The girl was treated for heat exposure.The heat rising from the sidewalk on Independence Mall in Philadelphia on Monday had history teacher Joan Whalen eager to get home to San Antonio.We went to D.C., too, when it was record hot (last week). I'm tired of the heat, said Whalen, 65, as she exited the Liberty Bell Pavilion.

For others, though, there was no getting away from the heat. In downtown Newark, N.J., on Monday, where temperatures crept toward 100 degrees, sidewalks that normally would be teeming with pedestrians were practically barren. Street vendor Alex Gam, wearing a hat and sunglasses to ward off the sun, lamented being outside in a spot devoid of shade for several hours with little to show for it.There's no business today, it's very slow,he said.It's too hot. Everybody's at the beach.Just then, two women approached, and each bought a handbag, providing Gam a brief reward.
In downtown Washington, Richard Willis, 52, was one of a few dozen homeless men in Franklin Square, a small park. He spent his day drinking water and staying in the shade.That's all you can do, really, said Willis, who wore jeans and a long-sleeve shirt and sat under a tall tree near a fountain.I've been through many summers. I'm experienced.The long weekend had loads of people out seeking relief. Five Connecticut state parks had to stop admitting people because they had reached capacity.Associated Press writers Eva Dou and Samantha Gross in New York, Maryclaire Dale and Jeff McMillan in Philadelphia, David Porter in Newark, N.J., and David Melendy and Sarah Karush in Washington contributed to this report.

La Nina expected in Pacific this year: WMO By Stephanie Nebehay - JULY 6,10

GENEVA (Reuters) – La Nina is likely to cool the tropical Pacific in coming months, a phenomenon which usually causes stronger monsoons across Asia and eastern Australia, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) said on Tuesday.The weather condition also promotes the development of storms including hurricanes in the tropical Atlantic, it said.El Nino, the opposite phenomenon which warms the sea, rapidly dissipated in early May after prevailing since late 2009. This has led to the current situation, bordering on a weak La Nina event in the tropical Pacific, according to the United Nations agency.These borderline conditions are more likely than not to strengthen to become a basin-wide La Nina episode during the second half of 2010,WMO said in a statement.While it is likely that the La Nina conditions will further develop over the next several months, the timing and magnitude of such an event in 2010 are still uncertain, WMO expert Rupa Kumar Kolli told a news briefing in Geneva.Current conditions are not adequate for the WMO to declare that a La Nina event is actually in place, he said.Most forecasting models do not a indicate a particularly strong La Nina event in terms of sea-surface temperatures, he said.

Typical La Nina events are usually associated with stronger monsoons in most parts of Asia and also Australia. A La Nina event is also associated with an active hurricane season in the tropical Atlantic, Kolli said.So these are some of the risk factors that should be kept in mind, he said.The U.S. government's top weather agency has already predicted that the Atlantic storm season which began on June 1 may be the most intense since 2005 when Hurricane Katrina killed over 1,000 people and disrupted oil production by crashing through Gulf of Mexico energy facilities.

Kolli, asked about the possible effects of La Nina on efforts to clean up BP's Gulf of Mexico oil slick, said: La Nina by itself is unlikely to play a role in that region.But considering that there is a possibility of an active hurricane season, the hurricanes definitely have the potential to churn up the sea and also play a role in the spread of the oil spill in some ways. But this all depends upon the track of the hurricane and the strength of the hurricane and many other factors associated with individual hurricane events,he said.If a La Nina event becomes well-established, it is also associated with a slight decrease in air temperature in many parts of the world, according to Kolli.That has implications for the global mean temperature,he told Reuters.(Editing by Jonathan Lynn)

Mexican state hit by flooding along Texas border

CIUDAD ACUNA, Mexico – Hundreds of people were evacuated and a border bridge closed in northern Mexico on Monday after days of rain caused flooding and water to swell behind a dam.Authorities in Coahuila state temporarily closed the border bridge in Ciudad Acuna as a precautionary measure after water released from the Amistad dam raised the level of the Rio Grande.Ciudad Acuna lies across the border from Del Rio, Texas.Coahuila Gov. Humberto Moreira told local media that about 10,000 people had suffered severe damage to their homes or possessions due to the flooding.The release of water from the Amistad dam raised the possibility that river levels could rise downstream in Piedras Negras, a city across the border from Eagle Pass, Texas, and Coahuila authorities evacuated people from settlements near the river as a precaution.Meanwhile, authorities in neighboring Nuevo Leon state, which was lashed by heavy rains from Hurricane Alex last week, reported that a total of 12 people died in flooding there caused by the storm.Alex hit Mexico's Gulf coast on Wednesday as a Category 2 hurricane before weakening into a tropical storm while moving inland. It dissipated Thursday.

Forecasters eye new storm brewing over Gulf
Mon Jul 5, 9:13 pm ET


MIAMI (Reuters) – An area of disturbed weather over the southeastern Gulf of Mexico could strengthen into a tropical storm later this week, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said on Monday.If it revs up to cyclone force, the system would become the second named storm of the 2010 Atlantic hurricane season and it could hamper oil spill clean-up efforts in the Gulf.The Miami-based hurricane center said the broad area of low pressure, which was moving northwestward at about 10 to 15 miles per hour had a medium chance of becoming a tropical storm over the next 48 hours.

Regardless of development, it said the system was likely to bring heavy rainfall and gusty winds to the Yucatan Peninsula and western Cuba over the next day or so.Most computer models showed the storm on a track that would take it over central Texas, well away from the site of BP's blown-out Macondo well off the Louisiana coast.
Earlier, the hurricane center said another storm in the Gulf, just off the coast of Morgan City, Louisiana, was packing strong winds and had a high chance of becoming a cyclone before it made landfall.But the system moved quickly over land, sapping its potential for development into a full-blown tropical storm.The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 to Nov 30 and meteorologists predict an active storm season. Last week, Alex became the first Atlantic storm in fifteen years to gain hurricane strength in the month of June.(Editing by Todd Eastham)

Obama, Netanyahu to focus on peace talks By DARLENE SUPERVILLE, Associated Press Writer - JULY 6,10

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu headed into a White House meeting Tuesday with the same goal: trying to move the Israelis and Palestinians to resume face-to-face peace talks.Netanyahu on Sunday endorsed the U.S. call for direct talks between the two parties, just days after White House officials said Obama would push during the Oval Office session for those negotiations to get under way sooner rather than later.Addressing his cabinet Sunday, Netanyahu said the time has come for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to get ready to meet with the Israelis because there is no other way to advance peace. I hope this will be one of the results of the visit to Washington.Aides to Obama sounded a hopeful tone late last week, telling reporters that weeks of shuttle diplomacy between the two sides by George Mitchell, Obama's special envoy to the Middle East, had paid off and the gaps have narrowed.We believe there are opportunities to further narrow those gaps, to allow the sides to take that next step to direct talks, said Daniel Shapiro, the senior Middle East director at the National Security Council.

Obama and Netanyahu also are expected to discuss Israel's decision Monday to significantly ease its blockade of the Gaza Strip to let in most consumer goods. Israel's ban on exports from Gaza and limits on shipments of construction material remain.Israel came under heavy international pressure, including from Obama and other top U.S. officials, to loosen its 3-year-old land and naval blockade of the seaside territory following Israel's deadly May 31 military raid on a flotilla trying to break the embargo.At the time, Obama said the situation was unsustainable. He called for a narrow blockade to bar weapons that Gaza's Hamas rulers could use against Israel while admitting items the territory's 1.5 million Palestinians need for daily living and economic development.Obama and Netanyahu also are likely to discuss efforts to end Iran's nuclear weapons pursuit, including sanctions Obama signed into law last week. That legislation followed a fourth round of U.N. Security Council sanctions against Iran.Tuesday's meeting will be the fifth between Obama and Netanyahu and would make up for a scheduled June 1 session at the White House that Netanyahu canceled to deal with fallout from the flotilla raid.The session follows meetings Obama held at the White House in recent weeks with key Mideast players, including Abbas and King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia.

It comes after a rocky White House meeting between Obama and Netanyahu in March. That followed Israel's surprise announcement of plans for new construction in east Jerusalem as Vice President Joe Biden was in Israel and preparing for dinner with the prime minister.Getting both sides to resume direct talks, which broke off in December 2008, is a huge challenge. One big sticking point is Israel's continued construction of Jewish housing in east Jerusalem, an area the Palestinians claim as part of a hoped-for future state.The Palestinians have refused to sit down with Netanyahu until he agrees to freeze construction in areas they want for an independent state. Israel recently said it has no intention of doing so.Abbas said last week that the borders of a future Palestinian state and security relations with Israel are the two issues on the table. He said direct talks can resume if an agreement is reached on them.Obama has called on Jerusalem to halt settlement construction and on the Palestinians to show progress on security and stopping violence against Israel.

Obama Appears Detached from Israel says Former US Negotiator
by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu JULY 6,10


Time is working against U.S. President Barack Obama, who appears to be detached from Israel, former U.S. Middle East negotiator Aaron David Miller wrote in Politico.com Tuesday. He maintains there is not much of a U.S. strategy yet for Middle East peace.

President Obama and Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu are to meet Tuesday evening as the American government pulls out all stops for high-profile publicity to rectify the damage of an anti-Israel image it has created. The Republican party has pounced on President Obama for his shabby treatment of Prime Minister Netanyahu during his visit earlier this year and for its lukewarm support of Israel over the flotilla clash with Turkish terror activists.Miller, who has become decidedly more skeptical since his years of negotiating for both Democratic and Republican presidents, wrote, Unlike Netanyahu, Obama does seem in a hurry. He wants a two-state solution on his watch. Time is not his ally.It is not entirely clear why Obama considers this matter so urgent… If Washington presses too hard with its own ideas now, it could lead to a crisis, the breakdown of negotiations or the need for a premature U.S. plan. None of this would be good for Obama.Miller also said that unlike former presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush,who seemed in love with Israel…Obama seems detached.As for Prime Minister Netanyahu, Miller explained there are two sides of the man – the tough-talking ideological Zionist and a pragmatic statesman. Which version of the PM will show up in Washington? Miller asked. Both, of course.Arab skepticism and expectations of President Obama are high, and a failure to meet Palestinian Authority demands of a total building freeze for Jews in Judea and Samaria would likely add another black mark to the president’s policies that have contributed to a sinking popularity.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

Five EU foreign ministers to visit Gaza after Israel eases blockade
VALENTINA POP Today JULY 6,10 @ 09:28 CET


The foreign ministers of France, Germany, Britain, Italy and Spain will visit Gaza following Israel's ease of the blockade imposed on the Palestinian territory, a move backed as a significant step forward by the EU's foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton.The five ministers sent a joint letter to Israeli foreign minister Avigdor Lieberman, accepting his invitation to visit Gaza, the Italian foreign ministry said Monday (5 July).The trip will take place in strict co-ordination with the Palestinian Authority, which lost control over the enclave in 2007, when the militant Islamist group Hamas was elected, prompting Israel to impose a full-scale blockade on the territory. Allowing the European dignitaries into the Palestinian territory is a rare gesture from the Israeli government, with EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton and UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon being the only recent exceptions.Israel's policy towards Gaza has come under considerable international and European pressure after Israeli commandos boarded a ship carrying humanitarian aid for Gaza in an attempt to break the blockade, and killed nine Turkish citizens. The Jewish state has since eased the embargo, replacing an allowed items list with a prohibited items one, making import of consumer goods – for instance washing machines and mattresses - and food more accessible.

Ms Ashton on Monday praised the ease of the blockade as a significant step forward which should improve the lives of the ordinary people of Gaza.Her remarks were echoed by former British prime minister Tony Blair, the special Middle East envoy of the Quartet of the UN, EU, US and Russia, who said that Israel's measures should have a dramatic influence on the daily lives of the people of Gaza and on the private sector.However, Israel continues to ban most travel and exports and restricts the import of construction materials, which are badly needed after scores of buildings were levelled down in the winter of 2008, during its military raids over Gaza.Meanwhile, in Washington, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was due to meet President Barack Obama on Tuesday – a make-up visit after the previous one was marked by a chilly reception from the White House in the wake of a perceived afront to vice-president Joe Biden when an announcement of further illegal settlement construction in East Jerusalem was made during his visit to Israel.Mr Netanyahu is expected to assure Mr Obama he wants to upgrade indirect talks with the Palestinians to direct negotiations, a move Washington sees as vital to the goal of creating a Palestinian state alongside Israel.I am ready to meet (Palestinian) President (Mahmoud) Abbas today and tomorrow and the next day at any place, Mr Netanyahu said last week.His visit to the White House was originally scheduled for 1 June, but was scrapped after the attack on the aid flotilla.

Senators McCain, Lieberman, Graham Visiting PA in Ramallah
by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu JULY 6,10


Former White House candidates Senator John McCain and Joe Lieberman and Sen. Lindsey Graham spoke with Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas and Prime Minister Salam Fayyad in Ramallah Tuesday as part of a four-day fact-finding tour.They are scheduled to meet with Defense Minister Ehud Barak and other Israel leaders on Wednesday, followed by a news conference.Sen. McCain was the Republican candidate running against Barack Obama two years ago, and Senator Lieberman, now an Independent, was the Democratic vice-presidential candidate in 2000, when Republican George W. Bush won his first term in office.The senators’ meetings with the PA came several hours before Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and U.S. President Barack Obama were scheduled to sit down for face-to-face talks at the White House. Fayyad and Abbas have stuck to their demands for PA control over all areas of Jerusalem, as well as all of Judea and Samaria, that were restored to Israel in the 1967 Six-Day War. All three senators have gone on record as saying that Jerusalem is the unified capital of Israel.Sen. Graham, the lesser known of the three, is a South Carolina Republican who also is a judge advocate in the Air Force Reserves. The Obama administration considers him to be one of the most bi-partisan senators.

Speaking at an American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) banquet earlier this year, he stated, Jerusalem is not a settlement. No government in Israel will ever look at Jerusalem as a settlement. No government in the United States should ever look at Jerusalem as a settlement. It is the undivided capital of the State of Israel. It is the eternal home of the Jewish faith. And it is now time to move on to other issues.On Iran, he told AIPAC, Sometimes it is better to go to war than to allow the Holocaust to develop a second time.(IsraelNationalNews.com)

Final Gulfstream G250 Business Jet in Test Flight
by Hana Levi Julian JULY 6,10


A third Gulfstream G250 business jet has begun the series of real-time tests in the air that will determine whether they will pass muster as Israel Aeronautic Industries (IAI) aircraft.So far, three of the aircraft have been produced by IAI, all of which are taking part in a 1,300-hour flight-test program. The first, S/N 2001, is focused on performing tests that check in-flight performance and handling. The second, S/N 2002, is working on avionics, and the newest aircraft, S/N 2003, is being checked on systems functionality and reliability.The third aircraft made its longest test flight on Monday, lasting seven hours and one minute. Its first flight was launched from Ben Gurion International Airport on June 28 and lasted two hours and 56 minutes, reaching a maximum speed of 250 knots and a top altitude of 20,000 feet (6,096 meters). It’s exciting to have all three test aircraft in the air,said Pres Henne, Gulfstream’s senior vice president of Programs, Engineering and Test. He added that the pilots handling the aircraft are pleased with the response of the jets,rivaling those of our large-cabin aircraft.The G250, which has the largest cabin and longest range at the fastest speed in its class, is powered by twin Honeywell HTF7250G engines and is capable of traveling 3,400 nautical miles at Mach 0.80. Its initial cruise altitude is 41,000 feet (12,496 meters).

The first G250 (S/N 2001), which rolled out of the IAI Tel Aviv facility in October 2009, is slated for type certification in 2011, and will be completed at the Gulfstream Mid-Cabin Center of Excellence in Dallax, Texas. It reached its maximum speed of Mach 0.85 and an altitude of 45,000 feet (13,500 meters).The three aircraft have already flown over 200 hours on more than 70 flights thus far.

Hypersonic Missiles: Air Force in Discussions After Test TIME By MARK THOMPSON / WASHINGTON – Tue Jul 6, 6:50 am ET

Is it a good thing for the U.S. military to be able to hit any target anywhere in the world in a matter of minutes? That used to be a sci-fi question, but it's becoming reality as the Air Force develops a new class of long-range hypersonic missiles. Back when the U.S. was pitted against the Soviet Union in a half-century-long quest to prove what was better - capitalism or communism? - pushing the technological envelope was vital for bragging rights and military superiority, as well as to buff up each side's political system. The atom bomb: U.S. 1, U.S.S.R. 0. Then came Sputnik, and the score was tied at 1 apiece. Then Apollo and putting a man on the moon - game, set, match. On June 30, Air Force boosters gathered to discuss the impact of adding to the Pentagon's arsenal hypersonic missiles, which can reach at least Mach 5, or five times the speed of sound. The topic has grown serious since the May 26 test flight of the X-51A Waverider aircraft over the Pacific, following a six-year, $250 million effort to develop a missile capable of flying 600 miles in 10 minutes. Such a missile could be developed in a decade with adequate funding, backers say. May's flight was a giant leap toward that goal. This test opens the door for hypersonic weapons capable of prompt global strike,said Brigadier General William J. Thornton, a key Air Force weapons tester. (See pictures of life in Colorado's NORAD bunker.)

Carried under the wing of a B-52, the 14-ft., tungsten-nosed X-51A looks like a flying Dustbuster, designed to let it ride the shock wave its speed generates. In its first-ever flight, a scramjet engine - cooled ingeniously by its own fuel - pushed it to about 3,000 m.p.h. for three minutes before falling into the ocean. (The longest previous flight of such technology had lasted only 12 seconds.) Keeping an engine operating at such speeds has been likened to keeping a match burning in a hurricane. We equate this leap in engine technology as equivalent to the post–World War II jump from propeller-driven aircraft to jet engines, Air Force program manager Charlie Brink said after the brief - but historic - flight of the Boeing-Rocketdyne vehicle. But the notion of a missile capable of traveling a mile a second raises a question: Just because something can be done, should it be done? The U.S. military's challenge has never been hitting a target so much as it has been hitting the right target. Recall its inability to kill Osama bin Laden in Afghanistan in 1998. Back then, it was using relatively slow-moving cruise missiles.It is worth noting that the 80-minute fly-out time of the conventional cruise missiles used in the attack would have been cut to just over 12 minutes if a Mach-6 hypersonic-missile system had been available,Air Force scholar Richard Hallion noted in a paper presented at the recent hypersonic confab in Arlington, Va. (See pictures of the U.S. military in the Pacific.)But time isn't usually the problem. There was that bombing that missed Saddam Hussein in the opening salvo of the 2003 invasion of Iraq, although it destroyed the house where U.S. intelligence said he was hiding. Then there was the cruise-missile strike against a Sudanese drug factory in 1998 because the U.S. thought it was making nerve agent, a claim never proven and disputed worldwide. In 1999, a B-2 bomber mistakenly hit the Chinese embassy in Belgrade during the Kosovo war because of an out-of-date map.The missed opportunity to kill bin Laden is a constant theme when hypersonic weapons are discussed. The U.S. military loves new and improved technology and is always looking for shortfalls that could have been bridged if only the nation had invested in better weapons. When the Soviet Union collapsed, for example, many experts felt President Reagan's Star Wars missile shield would die too. But it limped along for several years, until the North Koreans saved it in 1998 by launching a three-stage missile. (See the 10 most expensive military planes.)

While the flight didn't achieve its purported goal of putting a satellite into orbit, it did succeed in pumping additional billions of U.S. dollars into the nation's $100 billion investment in missile defense. Likewise, the failure of a fleet of eight U.S. military helicopters to rescue U.S. hostages in Iran in 1980 led to the $50 billion V-22 program. The military was profoundly embarrassed by the Iran-hostage snafu, in which three short-range helicopters broke down, and wanted to make sure it would never happen again. So far it has succeeded in that effort. But that's not because the Pentagon now has a fleet of V-22s capable of long-range missions; it's because such missions are extraordinarily rare, and there hasn't been a similar one since.Hallion's report concluded by warning that the Pentagon's current arsenal is not sufficiently timely to meet the growing challenges of 21st century rogue states and irresponsible actors who have access to advanced weaponry and a willingness to use it against America and its friends. But, unlike many weapons boosters, he added a key admonition about how things might have turned out that day when the U.S. tried to kill bin Laden with a barrage of those slow-moving - 550 m.p.h. - cruise missiles.It must be emphasized that one cannot say with certainty, he noted, that a hypersonic-missile attack would have had any greater luck. Given our inability to find bin Laden in the 12 years since, it's a caveat worth remembering before the nation spends billions on another quicksilver bullet.

12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.

Iran sends EU letter on conditions for nuke talks By NASSER KARIMI, Associated Press Writer - JULY 6,10

TEHRAN, Iran – Iran said in a letter to the European Union that it's ready for talks on the country's nuclear program but that the EU must first guarantee there would be no threats against Tehran, state TV reported on Tuesday.The TV said the letter was sent by Iran's top nuclear negotiator, Saeed Jalili, to EU's foreign policy chief, Catherine Ashton, detailing Tehran's conditions for the talks.It followed President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's announcement a week ago in which he said Tehran would not hold such talks until late August, to punish the West for the latest U.N. sanctions imposed on Iran. The EU and the U.S. have also imposed their own, additional and tougher sanctions against Iran to curtail its nuclear program.In his speech, Ahmadinejad accused world powers of approving the latest sanctions to give them the upper hand in talks over the issue.He also set three conditions for an eventual resumption of talks, saying countries who want to participate should make clear whether they oppose Israel's purported atomic arsenal, whether they support the Nonproliferation Treaty and whether they want to be friends or enemies with Iran. However, he said, participation in the talks was not contingent on the answers.

Jalili's letter reiterated those three points and stressed that the EU must make it clear whether the talks will be aimed at interaction and cooperation, or hostility and confrontation.It was a reply to Ashton's invitation to Jalili for talks in early June. The West accuses Iran of seeking to develop atomic weapons through its controversial nuclear enrichment program. Iran denies the charge, claiming the program is for peaceful electricity production only.Jalili also said the EU must elaborate on its stand on Israel's alleged nuclear arsenal.Iran considers Israel as its archenemy and the Jewish state has not ruled out military option against Iran's nuclear facilities. Israel, widely believed to have a sizable nuclear arsenal, refuses to confirm or deny the suspicions.

China objects to US sanctions against Iran
Tue Jul 6, 4:31 am ET


BEIJING – China said Tuesday that the United States and other countries should not expand on the latest U.N. sanctions imposed on Iran over its nuclear program.China did not exercise its veto power last month when the U.N. Security Council approved sanctions that target Iran's Revolutionary Guard, ballistic missiles and nuclear-related investments.The United States followed that up when President Barack Obama signed a bill Thursday that imposed tough unilateral sanctions against exports of gasoline and other refined petroleum products to Iran. It bans U.S. banks from doing business with foreign banks providing services to Iran's Revolutionary Guard.China supports the U.N. sanctions. China believes that countries should have correct implementation of the sanctions instead of expanding the sanctions, Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang told a news conference.The U.N. sanctions seek to punish Iran for rejecting proposals to halt uranium enrichment and take its nuclear fuel from abroad. The West and its allies fear Iran is developing nuclear weapons, though Iran says it is seeking nuclear power only for peaceful energy and medical research purposes.As a permanent member of the Security Council and key Iranian ally, China could have vetoed the sanctions, but after considerable international pressure it agreed to support them.But China has said its support for sanctions should not block efforts to find a diplomatic solution, and has called for renewed attempts to bring Iran back to the negotiating table.China's bilateral trade with Iran reached at least $36.5 billion last year. Iran meets 11 percent of China's energy needs and Chinese companies have major investments in Iranian energy extraction projects and the construction of roads, bridges and power plants.

Obama signs into law Iran sanctions bill
Thu Jul 1, 7:10 pm ET


WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama has signed into law a bill imposing tough new sanctions against Iran over its alleged nuclear weapons program.The bill Obama signed Thursday evening in an East Room ceremony targets exports of gasoline and other refined petroleum products to Iran. It bans U.S. banks from doing business with foreign banks providing services to Iran's Revolutionary Guard.The administration hopes the new unilateral sanctions, combined with ones approved last month in the U.N. Security Council, will yield results even though previous regimens failed to halt Iran's activities that could lead to nuclear weapons development.The U.N. sanctions target the Revolutionary Guard, ballistic missiles and nuclear-related investments.As lawmakers looked on, Obama called the new law the toughest sanctions against Iran ever passed by the United States Congress.But he said he had not sought the outcome, contending it was chosen by an Iranian government that for years has defied U.N. resolutions and forged ahead with its nuclear programs while supporting terrorist groups and suppressing the Iranian people.While insisting the door to diplomacy is still open, Obama said the U.S. is showing the Iranian government that its actions have consequences.There should be no doubt. The United States and the international community are determined to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons,he said.
