Four days of “simulated” nuclear terrorist scenarios in the US & Europe

20-04-2007 21:56

The following article describes planned terror drills, these are sadly worth paying some attention to due to the number of drills that were occuring on 9/11.

Could the following be describing 'The Pentagon's "Second 911"'  http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2006/08/347527.html and could the response be '"Theatre Iran Near Term" (TIRANNT)'  http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2007/02/362980.html as predicted by 'MI6 Iran Disinfo: The Prelude to War?'  http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2007/02/361578.html

The malignant resentments that erupted into mass murder in Virginia

20-04-2007 14:06

The Virginia Tech tragedy, which led to the brutal deaths of 33 people, is an event that needs to be considered soberly and at length.

10 Downing Street E-petition to abolish the Local Government Ombudsman

20-04-2007 13:42

Sir Geoffrey Chipperfield recommended abolition of the LGO because they were an unnecessary institution whose work could best be carried out by other bodies. His report was subverted by the interference of the then LGO and its allies. Since then the LGO has demonstrably failed to improve the system, and continues to exclude the public interest from their remit. Irrefutable evidence of its dishonesty and bias has been gathered by LGOWatch since 2003. The LGO is counter-productive to effective management in local government and a blight on the human rights of citizens looking to this publicly funded institution to act in good faith. On the rare occasions when it is found, the intervention of the LGO tends to entrench maladministration rather than put a stop to it. The continuance of this office is not in the public interest.
