POPSThey Do Things Differently in Mindinao Dirty politics doesn't mean breaking into a rival party headquarters, it involves killing everyone (including a dozen journalists) in a motorcade. About 7,100 of the 7,107 islands are mostly inhabited by kind, civil people. The other places are known for kidnappings of foreigners and continual civil war. There is another characteristic of that minority that is mentioned in the article. Bet you can't guess what it is...

POPSMassacre was Acceptable.......says Anwar al-Awlaki But the cleric, Anwar al-Awlaki, insisted in an interview with a Yemeni journalist contacted by the Post that he did not pressure Hasan to harm Americans. Al-Awlaki is a former imam at a Falls Church, Va., mosque where Hasan and his family occasionally worshipped. Al-Awlaki, a native-born U.S. citizen, left the United States in 2002, eventually traveling to Yemen. He said Hasan first e-mailed him in December 2008. Eventually, al-Awlaki said, Hasan came to view him as a confidant. "It was clear from his e-mails that Nidal trusted me," al-Awlaki told the journalist. "Nidal told me: 'I speak with you about issues that I never speak with anyone else.'"

POPSIraqis Terrorised by Child Kidnaps The authorities say they cannot provide figures for exactly how many kidnappings have taken place since the beginning of the year, but some estimates suggest the number could be as high as one per day. Brig Gen Faisal Mohsin, a senior police commander in Baghdad, told the BBC he believed at least some of the ransom money was funding insurgent activity. "Iraqi forces have become more professional now, and they are on high alert," he said, "pursuing all kinds of crime, and cutting off the sources that fund terrorism. So some of the terrorists have started financing their activities by kidnapping children." The situation has become so acute in Baghdad that the ministry of education has instructed schools to take special precautions.

POPSCelente – People Should Brace For ‘Greatest Depression’ 2012 Forecast – Food Riots, Ghost Malls, Mob
“Here we are in 2012. Food riots, tax protests, farmer rebellions, student revolts, squatter diggins, homeless uprisings, tent cities, ghost malls, general strikes, bossnappings, kidnappings, industrial saboteurs, gang warfare, mob rule, terror,” he writes for a quarterly publication that is available through subscription on his website. He also talked about his forecasts with Greg Corombos of Radio America/WND in an interview that has been posted online. The recent surge in Wall Street indexes back to near the 10,000 level, still far below the 14,000 prior to the crash, should be no reassurance for anyone, he said. “There’s no recovery. This is merely a cover-up,” he said. “The market crashed in March of 2009 and around the world they papered over the damage from the collapse with phantom money printed out of thin air backed by nothing,” he said. This is “much bigger” than an economic collapse, he said. “This is the decline of empire America.”

POPSStem Cell Research: Medics Now Under Police Investigation did not deny or admit to the charges of abuse against him during the hour long interview in his private IVF clinic in the suburbs of Nairobi. “I have worked with a lot of women about 64 of them since 1986. One has to do what they have to do in order to make it and help find a cure for many diseases affecting our society and the world,” said Dr Gichuhi. The investigations boss said that as many as 100 women, their whereabouts could not be known to date. At least 36 women have gone missing in the last three weeks alone. Researchers from the University of Wisconsin, Manitoba in Canada are also under investigations. However, some researchers have long fled the country after realizing that charges may be brought against them.

POPSUS Hypocrisy Astonishes the World The exceptional “virtuous nation” does not think it is insensitive for America’s bombs to blow innocent villagers to pieces. What does the world think of the United States? The US government is like a criminal who accuses the police of his crime when he is arrested or a sociopathic abuser who blames the victim. It is a known fact that the CIA has violated US law and international law with its assassinations, kidnappings and torture. But it is not this criminal agency that will be held accountable. Instead, those who will be punished will be those moral beings who, appalled at the illegality and inhumanity of the CIA, leaked the evidence of the agency’s crimes. America uber alles! No one counts but us (and Israel). The deaths we inflict and the pain and suffering we bring to others are merely collateral damage on the bloody path to American hegemony.

POPSDrug Cartels & Traffickers Prompt 500 More Federal Agents @ The Border Phoenix is clearly seeing the worst of the spillover. Investigators here suspect some of the kidnappings have led to killings in which bound and bullet-riddled bodies have been dumped in the desert. In the kidnapping of the motorist earlier this month, the victim managed to escape from the house before any ransom was paid. Investigators suspect he was mixed up in drug- or immigrant-smuggling because his captors believed he could get his hands on $30,000 in cash. David Denlinger, chief of criminal investigations for the Arizona Department of Public Safety, likened the cartels to the tire business. "You don't have a manufacturer of a tire that's the one putting it on your car at the end," Denlinger said. "So what you see up here in the interior is not your formal cartel. That's pretty much ended once they passed it through the United States."

POPS""Rape Trees" Found Along Southern US Border" continues: A new method of marking territory has crossed over into the United States. "Rape trees" are popping up in Southern Arizona and their significance is horrific and disgusting. These "rape trees" are places where cartel members and coyotes rape female border crossers and hang their clothes, specifically undergarments, to mark their conquest and territory. Sen. Jonathan Paton (R-Tucson), recently invited officials to describe the problems being faced in his home state to the Senate Judiciary Committee, which he chairs. Paton said violence along the border has escalated dramatically in the past year, "We want to go after these crimes," he insisted, "It’s an unbelievable situation, and we can’t allow that to go on in this country."

POPSThousands Of Mexican Soldiers Crackdown On Drug Gangs Armed to the hilt, they came from land and air, determined to restore order to Mexico's most violent city. The soldiers' mandate is clear - and ambitious. 'This is to reinforce the operation in general ... to eradicate kidnappings, extortion, assaults and homicide,' army spokesman Enrique Torres said. The soldiers are the first contingent of as many as 5,000 troops and federal police being sent to Juarez. Almost 2,500 soldiers and federal police have been there for nearly a year, but they have failed to curb the violence plaguing the city of about 1.6 million people. President Felipe Calderon's military operation is supported by the United States, which is concerned the violence could destabilize Mexico, a key trading partner, and spill over the border. Mexico has deployed some 45,000 troops across the country to try to crush drug gangs, but clashes between rival cartels and security forces killed around 6,000 people last year.

POPSThe Oscar for Denial And the winner is – The American People
In America too. Somehow we allowed our government to invade a country that had committed no aggression toward the United States. We allowed our government to declare an emergency in order to violate human rights of many thousands of individuals, to commit torture, to incarcerate people for years without trial or hearings of any kind. And today we continue the violence in Afghanistan and Iraq and Pakistan. We continue to jail and abuse individuals without charges. And we all know it's wrong. And it's time to deal with it before our "land of the free" is irreparably compromised. Democratic Senator Patrick Leahy has laid out The Case for a Truth Commission (Time, Feb 20). As Leahy says: "For much of this decade, we have read about and witnessed such abuses as the scandal at Abu Ghraib, the disclosure of torture memos and the revelations about the warrantless surveillance of Americans. We need to get to the bottom of what happened--and why--to make sure it never happens again..

POPSVirtual Kidnapping - Is someone calling you?? I just received a cell call from an unknown number. Without answering I Googled the number and found it may have been a "virtual kidnapping" scam, or some other ploy to separate me from my money. I heard a story (sorry, can't cite source) about a woman who went into a panic thinking a loved one had been kidnapped during her vacation in Mexico, and spent half a day trying to get help for said loved one. Turns out the loved one was out having fun, away from a cell phone. This poor woman, and several others she contacted for assistance, all suffered at the hands of a con artist. Fortunately for her, no money was exchanged, but I am sure others are not as fortunate. Be aware of who is calling you...

POPSUS anti-kidnapping expert abducted in Mexico Gangs in Mexico are getting way out of hand. The reason this should concern Americans is because it is spilling over into the US. Crime in Mexico cannot be this bad without help from Mexican authorities. Some serious attention needs to be paid to this.
