Big Agro-Business, Big Pharma, Trafic d'armes, sectes suicidaires et MIVILUDES - ce que cache la politique de chasse aux sectes en France Traduction : SOTTAvertissement au lecteur : Rien dans cet article d'investigation ne devrait être interprété comme une preuve que Sott.net approuve les activités manipulatoires d'organisations telles que la scientologie ou toute autre organisation qui profite de la fragilité humaine. Non seulement nous reconnaissons la nécessité de protéger les personnes vulnérables, au sein de la société, de ce genre d'escrocs « New Age », mais en outre, depuis ces 10 dernières années, nous nous efforçons sans relâche de démasquer ces prédateurs. Ce sont d'ailleurs les escrocs New Age que nous avons démasqués qui ont commencé à nous calomnier en nous affublant de l'étiquette « secte ». Depuis les années 1970, les gouvernements français qui se sont succédés ont utilisé à outrance et exagéré le danger posé par les groupes New Age, dans le but d'imposer au peuple français un conformisme oppressif en matière de croyance : il s'agit de croire en l'État lui-même.

Why the "Liberal" Media Leaves Hawkish Foreign Policy Unchallenged A recent article by foreign policy analyst Robert Naiman, examines The New York Times' current coverage of Iran's nuclear program. In it, he exposes a disappointing but unsurprising mishandling of the facts. References to the paper's shameful prewar reportage on Iraq and Saddam Hussein's regime are appropriate. But if the Times is indeed liberal, why the repeated adoption and promotion of misleading, hawkish assumptions? The New York Times could probably be fairly described as liberal. But if we apply the label generally to mean mildly progressive, roughly approximating the political center, one could reasonably assert that the Times falls within range of the liberal framework. The paper's editorial positions on domestic issues and social policy are safely categorized as liberal. Naturally, The New York Times' orientation reflects, for the most part, the opinions and attitudes of those who work for the paper and those who read it.
In These Deserts: War Stories From Afghanistan: Column 20: Bombs and the Boy. I wrote this a few days after it happened. I should feel different about it by now, but I don’t. Nothing has changed. Most friends don’t ask me about the war. Some have asked what my best memory was, or what my proudest moment was, and I can explain those pretty well. I often tell Abdulhaq’s story, or the story from when we brought Khan’s kids over for dinner. The blast caught us on a cold Friday morning as we were drinking coffee in my room, my friend and I. My guys and I lived out with the Afghans and took advantage of slow Fridays. Within minutes of us arriving nearby the police began to shoot wildly, and the whipcracks near to our heads convinced me that we would do no good as a four-man team in a wounded, recoiling town. We left. Thus engaged, we took a detour to the gate and waited with the Afghan police guards. The vehicle was a donated Pakistani ambulance van, dented and abused after years (or maybe just months) of service in a war zone. I spoke to him in Pashto.
Un centre d'espionnage gigantesque en construction aux Etats-Unis © WiredCapture de Wired.com Dans la petite ville de Bluffdale, au creux d'une vallée reculée de l'Utah, cœur du pays mormon américain, la National Security Agency (NSA) construit actuellement le plus grand centre de collecte et d'analyse de données des Etats-Unis, auquel le magazine Wired consacre sa couverture cette semaine. Ce centre puissamment gardé devrait être opérationnel en septembre 2013. La NSA a consacré 2 milliards d'euros au chantier, qui doit permettre d'abriter quatre halls à serveurs de 2 300 mètres carrés chacun, plus 8 hectares de bâtiments destinés au support technique et à l'administration du site. L'ensemble sera complètement autosuffisant. Des réservoirs d'essence seront capable d'alimenter des générateurs de secours trois jours durant ; des installations de pompage d'eau pourront produire 6,4 millions de litres d'eau par jour, un système d'égouts et d'air conditionné aidera à maintenir ces serveurs à une température raisonnable.

Will Israel Attack Iran? Ronen Zvulun/Reuters Ehud Barak, the Israeli defense minister, on right, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Six key strikes against Iran thought to be made by the Mossad. When I mentioned to Barak the opinion voiced by the former Mossad chief Meir Dagan and the former chief of staff Gabi Ashkenazi — that the Iranian threat was not as imminent as he and Netanyahu have suggested and that a military strike would be catastrophic (and that they, Barak and Netanyahu, were cynically looking to score populist points at the expense of national security), Barak reacted with uncharacteristic anger. Netanyahu and Barak have both repeatedly stressed that a decision has not yet been made and that a deadline for making one has not been set. 1. 2. 3. For the first time since the Iranian nuclear threat emerged in the mid-1990s, at least some of Israel’s most powerful leaders believe that the response to all of these questions is yes.

Police politique Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre. Les polices politiques sont omniprésentes dans les régimes totalitaires. Elles sont souvent accusées d'être utilisées pour maintenir le pouvoir politique en place au lieu de protéger l'état de droit. Au lieu de faire appliquer les lois comme les simples organismes de police, elles peuvent fonctionner au-delà et au-dessus de la loi. Elles fonctionnent entièrement ou partiellement, dans le secret. Cette culture du secret vise à cacher la plupart de leurs opérations au public. Histoire et méthodes[modifier | modifier le code] La police politique a non seulement l'autorité traditionnelle de police pour arrêter et détenir, mais dans quelques cas on leur donne le contrôle non surveillé de la longueur de détention. Les actes réalisés par les polices politiques sont la plupart du temps extrajudiciaires.
