POPSDocumentary -The CIA And The Nazis A History channel documentary, that gives an insight into the inner workings of what went after WW2 and led up to the cold war and how the two are inter-connected, and also what happened to the thousands of Nazi's that were brought to America by the US military. The truth is, thousands of former Nazis, some of whom committed atrocities, went to work for the United States government without the public’s knowledge. During the war, their crimes ranged from overseeing slave labor camps to sending orphans to their deaths. After the war, they were on the US payroll either as scientists in America or as intelligence agents in Europe.

POPSBetter Keep It Under the Carpet ..... The Duchess of York may get jail over disclosing the awful conditions for orphaned children in Turkey. As this country wants to join EU it's very anxious not to lose face like this. However, if the truth is as pointed out by the duchess then that's what counts with other people, not the glossed over image that Turkey wants.

POPS"Why I threw the shoe," by Muntazer al-Zaidi From the piece: "When I threw the shoe in the face of the criminal, George Bush, I wanted to express my rejection of his lies, his occupation of my country, my rejection of his killing my people. My rejection of his plundering the wealth of my country, and destroying its infrastructure. And casting out its sons into a diaspora."

POPSIraqi shoe thrower to be released early Thousands demonstrated for al-Zeidi's release and hailed his gesture, which came in the waning days of the Bush administration. The incident also embarrassed al-Maliki, who was standing next to Bush at the time. Neither leader was injured, but Bush was forced to duck for cover as the journalist shouted in Arabic: "This is your farewell kiss, you dog! This is from the widows, the orphans and those who were killed in Iraq."

POPSFascism at Home Means Fascism Abroad Shame on all those media outlets that have been complicit in this dirty lie all last week. And shame also on our pathetic secretary of state, who said that she hoped that “the genuine will and desire” of the people of Iran would be reflected in the outcome. Surely she knows that any such contingency was deliberately forestalled to begin with. Earlier this year, I spent a week with Hitchens in Lebanon, and at one point he wandered off to attend a Hezbollah rally in the suburbs south of Beirut. I thought I had seen enough Hezbollah rallies over the last couple of years and could hardly stand the thought of sitting through yet another one of those bigoted scream fests. I wish now that I had gone, though, because Hitchens witnessed an alarming escalation.

POPSMoved by Madonna They would argue: How many of the rich politicians in Malawi, the activists in Malawi, the rich in Malawi -- how many of them adopt children? They simply don't. They don't see rich Malawians adopting or supporting orphans, and we have 560,000 of them. So Malawians have tended to love Madonna and want her to have as many children as possible, because she's the only one so far who has shown interest in adopting these children. Only about 30 international adoptions a year are approved here.

POPSWhat Did Rush Limbaugh Do After His Speech to CPAC? Consumed 14 gallons of high-octane gasoline to ready himself for cross-country run. Argued long and loud with penguins in Washington Zoo. Eventually adopted many of the birds' more salient political points. Flew over Georgetown District for one whole minute courtesy of own makeshift "human crossbow" device. Attempted to singlehandedly build Tower of Babel in National Mall using inferior "Mega Blocks" as opposed to far more acceptable "Lego" bricks. Rubbed himself provocatively against trees, traffic cops. Spun around in circle all night in attempt to reverse earth's rotation. Repeatedly bellowed, "Rush shall have thee!" to every attractive woman on sidewalk.
