POPSNazi camps: Hell on earth On April 9, 1945, the inmates of the Buchenwald death camp near Weimar, Germany, sent a radio message to inform the Allies that the Nazis were forcing them to evacuate the camp, and to request assistance. After they received promises of help from the U.S. Third Army, they stormed the watchtowers and killed the remaining guards using arms they had been collecting since 1942. The Americans, who reached Buchenwald on April 11, liberated 21,000 prisoners. Extermination was the goal of the death camps, where the "inferior people," especially Jews, Gypsies, Slavs, Soviets, and anyone else who was not an "Aryan" according to the contemporary Nazi race terminology, were forced. Over three million of the six million European and Soviet Jews died there, as well as four million Russians and hundreds of thousands of other Soviet peoples (out of the total 27 million who perished in WWII), approximately 200,000 Gypsies, as well as Serbs, Poles and others.

POPSRussian Tupolev-160 Strategic Bomber Chased By Canadian Fighter Jets Before Obama Visit Indeed, the airspace over Canada's capital was temporarily closed to all planes but Obama's own Air Force One, which arrived and then departed after the seven-hour visit. Mr. MacKay said he did not want to accuse the Russians of making mischief while Canada's security focus was further south. "It was a strong coincidence, which we met," Mr. MacKay said. In Saskatoon, Harper said Canada will continue to fulfill its obligations to defend North America's continental airspace. "We will respond every time the Russians make any kind of intrusion on the sovereignty of Canada's Arctic," he said. "That's our obligation and that's what we'll do." The incident was disclosed Friday morning at a joint news conference on Parliament Hill with Mr. MacKay, Gen. Walt Natynczyk, the chief of the defence staff and U.S. Gen. Gene Renuart, the commander of Norad.

POPSThanks To The Blathering Idiots In Washington D.C. ... We're Toast ! ! ! Another proof that you can't go to the people that caused the problem for the solution. Professor Panarin has an almost perfect record with his predictions. By the time Bush leaves office, the US will have around $11,000,000,000,000 in debts. And that, folks, is about 60% of our annual GDP. They are now spending, not your children's money, not your grandchildren's money but your great grandchildren's money. Thank you Bush, Paulson, Pelosi and Reed...all of which should be put on trail and end up in prison.
