POPS Norwegians Incensed Over Barack Obama's Snubs He should respect the monarchy," she told VG. Although Obama will not lunch with King Harald, he will see him on a visit to the royal palace White House officials said that Obama, who was planning to work on the final draft of his speech on his flight from Washington to Oslo, would directly address the issue of the irony of being awarded the peace prize while escalating the war. The Nobel peace committee has been criticised for awarding Obama the prize before he has any major accomplishments in international relations. A White House official said that it was not necessarily an award that Obama would have given himself. Also: Obama's Nobel snub angers Norwegians http://bit.ly/8WnG1N

POPS Texts Suggesting Attack Coming; 'Wedding Cake' Is Ready 
After first denying any ties to al Qaeda, Zazi has now admitted certain ties developed during trips to Pakistan, law enforcement officials told ABCNews.com. The officials said text messages sent by Zazi suggest the plot was nearing the attack phase. One message said the "wedding cake is ready," which authorities say may have been code to indicate the attack was ready. Al Qaeda operatives have frequently used references to weddings to disguise planned terror attacks. Zazi's lawyer, Arthur Folsom, said his client was cooperating fully with the FBI during his long interrogation sessions. Folsom told ABCNews.com "no deal has been offered," but authorities say Zazi is preparing a "proffer" of information he would be prepared to testify about as part of a plea negotiation. Zazi's computer was copied, or "mirrored," by FBI agents last weekend without Zazi's knowledge. His lawyer said the agents probably made the copy after towing away Zazi's car on an purported parking violation.

POPSA DRIVE TO SAVE LIFTA
Main Issues: • The original Palestinian inhabitants of Lifta, their memories of the village, their exile and longing to return to Lifta are not mentioned, or even consideredby the Municipality Master Plan. • Lifta captures the moment of destruction of Palestinian life in 1948. Its 3,000 original inhabitants fled – mostly to East Jerusalem and to the Ramallah area. However, unlike many of the 530 Palestinian villages and towns conquered and bulldozed during the war of 1947/48, a few of Lifta’s houses remain almost intact, yet deserted and declared ‘officially’ resettled. • These set of circumstances have placed Lifta in a unique position: its original inhabitants are still around, living in the OPT and the Chicago area with a desire that the injustices done in 1948 be acknowledged and repaired. • In Israel, renovation projects are frequently used to build a national narrative, ignoring the deep contradictions between planning and human rights that inevitably arise out of suc

POPSPentagon Planning Deployment of Troops in Support of Nationwide Vaccination It is worth noting that this involvement of the military is not being decided by the President, but by the Secretary of Defense, which suggests that the Pentagon is, in a key issue of of national interest, overriding the President and Commander in Chief. The US Congress has not been consulted on the issue. This decision to mobilise the Armed Forces in the vaccination campaign is taken in anticipation of a national emergency. Although no national emergency has been called, the presumption is that a national public health emergency will occur, using the WHO Level 6 Pandemic as a pretext and a justification.

POPSThe Worldwide H1N1 Swine Flu Pandemic. These statements serve to mislead public opinion. There is ample evidence, documented in numerous reports, that the WHO’s level 6 pandemic alert is based on fabricated evidence and a manipulation of the figures on mortality and morbidity resulting from the N1H1 swine flu. The Pandemic serves the interests of Big Pharma. The WHO is planning for the production of 4.9 billion dose, enough to inoculate a large share of the World’s population. Big Pharma including Baxter, GlaxoSmithKline, Novartis, Sanofi-Aventis and AstraZeneca have signed procurement contracts with some 50 governments. (Reuters, July 16, 2009). For these companies, compulsory vaccination is a highly lucrative undertaking: The Role of the Military According to CNN, the Pentagon is “to establish regional teams of military personnel to assist civilian authorities in the event of a significant outbreak of the H1N1 virus this fall, according to Defense Department officials.”

POPS Military planning for possible H1N1 outbreak Civilian authorities would lead any relief efforts in the event of a major outbreak, the official said. The military, as they would for a natural disaster or other significant emergency situation, could provide support and fulfill any tasks that civilian authorities could not, such as air transport or testing of large numbers of viral samples from infected patients. As a first step, Gates is being asked to sign a so-called “execution order” that would authorize the military to begin to conduct the detailed planning to execute the proposed plan. Orders to deploy actual forces would be reviewed later, depending on how much of a health threat the flu poses this fall, the officials said. Source: CNN

POPSHealthcare 'Special' ABC Refuses Paid Ads That Oppose Obamacare It is unfortunate--and unusual--that ABC is refusing to accept paid advertising that would present an alternative viewpoint for the White House health care event. Health care is an issue that touches every American and all potential pieces of legislation have carried a price tag in excess of $1 trillion of taxpayers' money. The American people deserve a healthy, robust debate on this issue and ABC's decision--as of now--to exclude even paid advertisements that present an alternative view does a disservice to the public. Our organization is more than willing to purchase ad time on ABC to present an alternative viewpoint and our hope is that ABC will reconsider having such viewpoints be part of this crucial debate for the American people. We were surprised to hear that paid advertisements would not be accepted when we inquired and we would certainly be open to purchasing time if ABC would reconsider.

The last time Obama proactively used his online support network for such a high-profile news event was his selection of Joe Biden as his vice-presidential pick in August. Alongside the online activism, the White House is planning a traditional rollout of the nominee complete with a full schedule of one-on-one meetings with senators.

POPSLaguna Niguel wants to cover up Amtrak mooning event Family-type event?!? I guess this comment by the city’s police chief shows that deep down inside she thinks this is harmless fun. Just so there is no misunderstanding of where I stand on this, I think the event is harmless fun too, but I wouldn’t want my kids out there ‘exposed’ to adult butts, and other parts. It is called ‘indecent exposure’ for a reason. I know it started out as a barroom bet, but really, what do these people have against Amtrak? And then there are always those few idiots that carry the whole thing too far and ruin it for everyone else.

POPSAnyone Else Have FEMA Exercises in Their Town Today? The exercise will simulate criminal activity and is designed to test and evaluate the response to a crisis situation. These incidents will not be real; however, the responses to them are intended be as realistic as possible. In all cases, every effort has been made to balance realism with safety, while still allowing the creation of an effective learning and evaluation environment. Likewise, all participating agencies have balanced their participation in this exercise with their requirements for real-world emergency response and protection. The areas where the full-scale exercise will be undertaken will be clearly marked and will have an appropriate off-limits perimeter established. Law enforcement personnel will be assigned to direct and provide safe passage for motorists while the exercise is being conducted.

POPSequality is sexy - love not H8
(CALIFORNIA) Day of Decision on Proposition 8 California's battle over same-sex marriage went before the state's highest court, with civil rights lawyers seeking to overturn a voter-approved ban on gay weddings. Hundreds of supporters and opponents gathered outside the Supreme Court in San Francisco for the hearing, which came 10 months after the court legalized gay marriage in a landmark ruling last May. That ruling was cast into doubt last November when voters passed a change to California's constitution that redefined marriage in the state as a union between a man and a woman. Supporters of same-sex marriage are seeking to have the results of the referendum, known as Proposition 8, quashed on the grounds that minority rights should not be vulnerable to a simple majority vote. The stakes in California are high – a good decision would help fortify the LGBT community against what could be some very difficult years of economic strain and scapegoating. A bad decision woul

POPSMan who led Sen. John McCain's presidential-campaign office in Pueblo arrested for child molestation She accepted Bartleson's offer. The woman said that her son told her that while at Bartleson's home, Bartleson insisted on giving him a bath, during which he was sexually molested. Later, said the child, Bartleson forced him into Bartleson's bed, where he once again was molested. In interviews this week with investigators, the child said that when he tried to get away from Bartleson, he kept pulling him back into the bed. He was finally able to leave when Bartleson fell asleep. And it happened to a family going to a Palin event.

POPSToday’s Edition Of Senate Gone Wild: Armed Guards To Keep Burris Out 
I’m just an enterprising little blogger trying to make her way right here in Amerika! I don’t want to work in the potato fields! I NEED this material. So I IMPLORE you, Roland. Show up! Then we could do a nice analogy with what Saddam Hussein always did with people he didn’t want in the room. Come on guys! I need to catch a break here, mmmmmmmkay? I want to see the veins in Harry Reid’s neck pulsating. I want to see Blagojevich’s hair again. I want to hear Bobby Rush’s next speech after the only African American man in the room gets hauled out by the Democratic Party. “We’re not going to create a scene in Washington,” Burris said. “We hope it’s negotiated out prior to my going to Washington.” No no no! Prithee Roland, I beseech thee! Playing nice is not a part the congressional handbook, man! And it never provides good blogging material! Hey, by the way, did anybody notice that the Other Useless Party is awfully quiet these days?

POPS"World Orgasm Day" Orgy Cancelled Due to Threats The Raelians are known for their liberal attitudes towards sexuality. They believe that mankind was created by aliens who arrived here thousands of years ago in UFOs. Despite their opposition to Biblical attitudes towards sex they see the Bible as a book that bears witness to ancient alien visitors, and place particular emphasis on the Book of Ezekiel, which they see as an ancient account of a UFO visitation.

POPSIMF warns of economic riots Hopefully, this is nothing more than necessary contingency planning, but a separate recent article stated that the Department of Defense plans to deploy 20,000 troops nationwide to help state and local officials respond to ‘nuclear attacks’ and ‘emergencies’. I can’t help but think the emergencies referred to could be riots over our deflating economy. There have already been food riots in Haiti, Bangladesh, and Egypt (http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/americas/04/14/world.food.crisis/) and the way our government uses our money to bailout the banking system without any oversight, and the numbers of jobless and homeless keep increasing, civil unrest is not farfetched. I only have my faith that Americans will not go to this extreme but my faith in Americans have been shattered before.
