"This little brothers - are watching you too"..
In fact...There are a whole LOT "little brothers" watching!...
"He advised the Turkish government to talk to the pro-Kurdish Democratic Society Party (DTP)."
Well..Yeah..Be sure we follow up how some and how many can take a good advice..actually..So far we have seen a LOT of stupidity..
Lord John Alderdice, involved in the peace process regarding the Irish Republican Army (IRA), said that an armed organization cannot be ignored during the process of finding a solution. Nevertheless, the British government does not sit down directly at the same table with the IRA. In the IRA peace process former IRA militant and Sinn Fein Party official Jim Gibney represents the Irish side. About including the IRA into the process of finding a solution he said: "You cannot make decisions on their behalf or decisions affecting them without including them." He advised the Turkish government to talk to the pro-Kurdish Democratic Society Party (DTP).
After an according statement of a detained person the police searched DTP Mayor Edibe Sahin's home in Tunceli. Some people were arrested during another raid of the Municipality guesthouse. Hundreds of DTP members protested.
Court Requested to Bring in DTP MPs by Force
The court decided to bring in DTP members Emine Ayna and Selahattin Demirtas by force and to issue a new notification for Ahmet Türk. Prof. Dr. Kaboglu suggested to solve the problem of the MPs immunity by the removal of article 14 concerned with an exception for "terror crimes". Despite the parliamentary immunity the Ankara 11th High Criminal Court decided to bring convicted co-chair Emine Ayna of the pro-Kurdish Democratic Society Party (DTP) and Diyarbakir MP Selahattin Demirtas to court by force. A new notification will be issued to DTP president Ahmet Türk. The Kurdish MPs have been prosecuted because of the contents of speeches they have made. The court adjourned the case on 26 May this year. It was postponed till today (29 September) because the MPs' statements were to be taken with a court notification. Ayna explained on NTV that she is not going to testify in the continuation of the court proceedings on 29 December either.
The Presidency of the Turkey Grand National Assembly (TBMM) had been notified about the court notification before and was informed that the directive did not reach the DTP MPs because of their busy schedules. Commenting on NTV, member of the Marmara University Law Faculty Prof. Dr. Ibrahim Kaboglu said that after a pending of the case for more than 3 months the Parliament has to deal with it as soon as it re-opens on 1 October. Kaboglu said that this situation can be solved by removing the exception related to article 14 concerning "terror crimes" as mentioned in article 83 of the constitution about "constitutional immunity". Prof. Dr. Kaboglu explained that this can end the bypassing of law at the level of the parliament's presidency.
The Diyarbakir 5thHigh Criminal Court asked the Ankara court for taking the statement of Diyarbakir MP Selahattin Demirtas, for Türk it is the Istanbul 9th High Criminal Court and for Ayna it is the Adana 8th High Criminal Court.
Actually...speak with the Kurdish Democratic Society Party -DTP..And they are prosecuted for terrorist propaganda..
And some few "politicians" actually believes they will implement their crimes and selling out humanity they have been busy with for decades, or even since the 18th century, from the U.S., military industry, Italy, Joseph Ralston, Richard Holbrooke, FBI, CIA, Turkish officers, Israel, Britain, directors of weapon companies and you #¤# name it and people in Europe with their personal interests, back to Europe and that the people of the world believes everything in their media manipulations for just as long.
Afghan leader Mullah Mohammad Omar is not in Pakistan and the United States is only saying he is there to justify an expansion of its drone missile strikes, a Taliban commander said on Wednesday.
Yeah..And which have "pawed the way"? And not just "pawed the way" but been very much active in genocide against the Pashtuns! And what did some get other than massacres in MASSES and to have "Taliban" in bold style printed in Reuters?
While Pakistan bragged about how their weaponry helped the slaughter on 20.000 Tamils or 50.000 or more..who #¤# knows after the Sri Lankan army "mopped up" and speaking about it through Reuters. While we all know most of Pakistan's weaponry comes from the U.S..And is supported by the IMF just as the Sri Lanka government while ambassadors are very much presence at the same time crimes are committed with India´s weaponry as well, which by the way they use to buy from Israel, which by the way Sri lanka has done ever since the remote controlled IDE went off simultaneously with the ones in the CIA installed Vietnam village guard genocidal system in the genocidal "war-fare" carousel in Kurdish villages, and after crimes new ambassadors comes to Sri Lanka..and the old ones are employed in India..And Pakistan arrives with Chines build missile frigate, which by the way has a LOT of business in the port to Baluchistan where the Iranian regime and Pakistan have been and are still engaged in genocide against the Baluch. And China and Russia denies any crimes at the other side of the tables with the U.N. in the middle, while Britain´s politicians "shall change the world again" AS IF IS NOT ENOUGH AFTER THE 18th CENTURY IN IRAQ, KURDISTAN, CYPRUS, SRI LANKA, AFGHANISTAN, INDIA, PAKISTAN AND THE "TRIBAL BELT" THAT WAS CREATED..And after have chased both Kurds, Tamils, Pastuns and people from all over the globe to the streets of Canada, the U.S., Europe and London aiding and abetting to have PKK on terrorists list after a European court annulled it and at the same time have weapon deals with Turkey together with Italy, the U.S. and half the globe, while the genocidal "war-fare" carousel is instigated again and the attacks raised sky high in Iraq..And when people involved in the peace process regarding IRA advised Turkey to speak with member's of DTP they are detained, jailed and prosecuted for terrorism propaganda..At the same time the world bank with the IMF shall have meetings in Istanbul after the one in Sri Lanka.. And so on and on AND ON AND ON..in pipelineistan. In fact..We have just began!
Pakistan's naval academy annually trains 70 SLN sailors. The Captain of Pakistan’s newly acquired Chinese built guided-missile frigate PNS Zulfiquar, which docked in at the Colombo Port earlier this week, told media that his country was training 70 SLN personnel on annual basis and that the SLN would acquire Pakistani built small frigates in the future.

About 100 people protested in Istanbul's district of Beyoğlu, claiming that the pressure on tansvestites and transsexuals has increased ever since Hüseyin Çapkın became Chief of Police.

Well..release your students, youths and prisoners! Throwing out people from windows, bridges and cliffs! cutting of tongues and have adopted the same ¤%¤# crimes as Saddam and that against your own people. With a #¤# idiot that has harassed students ever since he left the University himself and now have "come back" to harass as a copy of Saddam in the corridors, as if it´s his biggest mission in life! If he was ganged up on in class and harassed during his school time he should #¤# seek a therapist and not take it out on the whole Iranian youths, students and the whole #¤# nation!
Well..maybe it´s time to "sort out people"..
5 pads found in Missan - 3 arrested over links to military airport attack
A report by the Jamestown Foundation said members of the Iraqi Baath party based in northeast Syria would end their support for the insurgency in Iraq in return for permission to participate in the political process.
Well..That would be illegal..Wouldn´t it..it´s like: "If we can not be a part of play we kill your women and children"..Just as it´s criminal if Syria "won’t stop all insurgent operations on its borders until a regional peace settlement is reached with the U.S. and Israel and use killings of Iraqis, women and children as tools".
Anyway..It´s maybe time to stop generalize...and sort out people that are willing to reconcile and move forward for the sake of the whole Iraqi people, the Iraqi nation, the region and the future.
And it´s not that it must show evidence to Assad as it is a task for the United Nations Security/terror Council. And it would be a good idea to reconcile with those former Baathists in Syria who are reaching out to the Iraqi government and reevaluates the mistakes of the Saddam regime and adopts more democratic policies, before the the UN Security/NATO/terror Council believes they have justifications for Turkey´s incursion and destruction ones again as we all know what happened in Iraq and to the Iraqis the "last time" after the instigated genocidal "war-fare" carousel and Turkey´s incursion.
Yeah..That would be a good idea to start such a reconciliation with those that want to do something good for the future of Iraq and handle the rest of the problems to the Security/NATO/terror Council, before they claim they have the right to massacre 5.000 women and continuing poisoning the environment and waters that affects whole Iraq, the Marsh lands, the animal life and makes the water buffalo sick and dies in the Marsh lands and affects the ground waters in the Gulf all the way to Saudi Arabia..And the circulation of the Gulf stream at the posioned coast of South of Africa..and all the way around the globe..
The drying of the marshes led to the disappearance of the salt-tolerant vegetation, the plankton rich waters that fertilized surrounding soils, 52 native fish species, the wild boar, Red Fox, buffalo and water birds of the marsh habitat.

Sports is something to connect people and countries..
So we suggest Turkey´s authorities themselves do something about their racists hooligans destroying soccer games..It´s theirs task..no ones else..So..the rest of us can just lay back and relax in the meantime..
Racist hooligans that takes the opportunity to destroy soccer matches are "another Turkey´s problem". Not PKK´s or any ones else..
During the soccer match on Saturday, Bursaspor fans unfurled banners that read "Happy is he who says I am a Turk," accusing Diyarbakırspor supporters of being pro-PKK and calling on them to leave the country. In the wake of high tensions during a soccer match between Bursaspor and Diyarbakırspor on Saturday, Diyarbakırspor Chairman Çetin Sümer has announced his decision to withdraw his team from the league. The announcement came after supporters of the host team demonstrated hostility against Diyarbakırspor players and fans, accusing them of being "separatists." Ten people, including children, were injured after supporters of the two teams hurled stones and other projectiles at each other. Five people were detained in connection with the clashes.
Analysts argued that the tension came as the latest example of “provocation” and said the nationalist feelings of football lovers have been abused by political figures who stand against ongoing government efforts to settle the long-standing Kurdish question through a comprehensive democratization package.
Saturday's soccer match between Bursaspor and Diyarbakırspor was marked with clashes between supporters of the two teams, which observers termed an 'altercation.' Bursaspor fans accused their rivals of separatism, and Diyarbakırspor decided to withdraw from the league as a result of their Bursa reception. “There is a political movement or body behind the tension. What is behind Saturday's tension is a political mindset which seeks benefits through chaos or clashes,” noted Ümit Fırat, a Kurdish writer and intellectual.
Indeed, everyone was calm during the match on Saturday evening, till Bursaspor fans started to chant slogans against Diyarbakırspor players. They first denounced recent acts of terror perpetrated by the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) and later accused the players and supporters of the southeastern team of backing the PKK. Diyarbakırspor fans responded to the provocative slogans by throwing water bottles and stones at their rivals. Police detained five people in connection with the clashes, while injured fans were taken to nearby hospitals. Diyarbakırspor Chairman Sümer reacted harshly to the incidents and announced his decision to withdraw his team from the league.
“As Diyarbakırspor, we have always supported social peace. But they accused us of being pro-PKK. They unfurled Turkish flags in their stands. I am also a citizen living under that flag. They tried to create the impression that the match was between supporters of Apo - PKK leader Abdullah Öcalan and the Nationalist Movement Party [MHP]. We witnessed similar tensions in the past, too. We will witness many more in the future as long as the authorities do nothing. What is best to avoid future tensions is to withdraw Diyarbakırspor from the league,” Sümer stated at a press conference he called immediately after the match.
Tensions flared on Saturday when Bursaspor fans accused Diyarbakırspor supporters of being separatists. The two sides threw plastic bottles and other projectiles at each other, injuring 10 people. Bursaspor officials defended their team, claiming that Diyarbakırspor supporters threatened them with their lives. “They warned us not to travel to Diyarbakır, ever. They said they would not allow us to enter their airport. They said we would be called to account for today's tensions,” recounted Bursaspor Chairman İbrahim Yazıcı. Bursaspor fans are waiting anxiously to see what action the Turkish Soccer Federation (TFF) and the Professional Soccer Disciplinary Committee (PFDK) will take.
According to Fırat, Saturday's incidents were the extension of recent tensions in the political arena. He said political figures have misled and misused their young and inexperienced supporters to create the impression that a large part of the nation is against the planned Kurdish initiative. The ruling Justice and Development Party (AK Party) has recently been working on a comprehensive plan to solve the Kurdish question through peaceful methods. Though not officially announced, the governing party is planning to introduce broader cultural and political rights for Kurdish citizens. The main opposition Republican People's Party (CHP) and the MHP, however, are strong opponents of the move, accusing the AK Party of “high treason.”
“Politicians who don't want the existing political order to be changed raise their voice against the initiative because they know that they will perish from the political scene once the status quos is broken in the country. They provoke their supporters and produce evil scenarios. They have roots in fascism. They want wars and clashes to rule the country,” Fırat added. The writer also recalled a past incident between Diyarbakırspor and Fenerbahçe fans and said soccer is often the scene for acts of violence. Tension flared last month during the match as fans began throwing plastic water bottles and other projectiles onto the pitch. Trouble continued after the match as a group of stone-throwing Diyarbakırspor fans fought with police outside the stadium. Police had to use water cannons and pepper spray to restore order. An ambulance was pelted with stones, smashing the windows.
Dr. Selçuk Özdağ, a former member of the Grand Unity Party (BBP) and a lecturer at Muğla University, expressed surprise over witnessing such heightened tension at the Diyarbakırspor-Bursaspor match. “Diyarbakır is a part of this country. There may be people who have different views, but this does not grant anyone the right to expel others from the public or to insult them. This was merely a soccer match. People play sports to reinforce ties of brotherhood and develop empathy with others. While this is the case, how should we interpret the behavior of a small number of disrespectful people?” he asked. The academic warned that a campaign to “otherize” Diyarbakır residents would serve no purpose other than empowering the trump cards of PKK. “Diyarbakırspor faces similar incidents almost anywhere it travels to play soccer matches. A wise person would, however, know that slogans against Diyarbakırspor fans would pump oxygen to the PKK,” he said and advised the TTF and PFDK to take action against provocations on the soccer pitch.
Bekir Örtücü, the head of the Diyarbakırspor fan group Tayfa, complained that his fellow fans were fed up with being discriminated against by rivals at all their soccer matches. “We are tired of hearing undesired chants and slogans at every match. We want someone to end the discriminatory acts. We reached Bursa after a 22-hour journey. We were met with an indescribable atmosphere at the stadium. But the great atmosphere left, giving its place to ugly slogans as the match kicked off. … We felt as if we came from a foreign country. Every Bursaspor fan was waving Turkish flags. They were chanting slogans in favor of Turkey. They were calling on us to leave the country. Though our chairman Çetin Sümer gave the best response to all ugliness during the match, we are still in deep sorrow for facing such a situation,” Örtücü wrote in a column on his group's Web site.

Abdelwaheb Abdallah told the General Assembly’s annual high-level segment, held at UN Headquarters in New York, that youth “are our real wealth” and therefore it was critical to introduce measures to make them more active in decision-making processes.
“Globalization, with its numerous problems and major challenges, urges us to take care of our youth and constantly listen to their concerns in order to preserve them from exclusion and marginalization, protect them from the dangers of seclusion and extremism, as well as from carelessness and estrangement, while instilling in them the culture of tolerance and moderation,” he said. Mr. Abdallah said the African, Arab and Islamic States, as well as the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM), had already backed a proposal from Tunisia to make next year the International Year of the Youth and he hoped the entire General Assembly would support a resolution on the subject during the current session.
The Foreign Minister said next year could also feature a World Youth Conference under the auspices of the UN and other international organizations, to be attended by young people from across the world and to conclude with a pact outlining common values among the participants. “We strongly hope that this initiative will contribute to deepening the awareness about the position that the youth shall enjoy within our societies so that they become an active stakeholder in the success of our development process,” he said.
Mr. Abdallah also said that youth have a vital role to play in promoting dialogue and enhancing mutual respect between peoples, as well as values such as tolerance and moderation.
Well....Yeah!

Ban again urges Sri Lanka to resettle hundreds of thousands
28 September 2009 – Failure to rapidly resettle nearly 300,000 Sri Lankans displaced by the Government’s final onslaught against Tamil separatists and further suffering under harsh conditions in the camps could result in growing bitterness, Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon warned the island’s Prime Minister today. In talks with Ratnasiri Wickramanayaka at United Nations Headquarters in New York, Mr. Ban stressed in particular the need to resolve the problem in view of the approaching monsoon season, while acknowledging the Government’s efforts to address post-conflict challenges in Sri Lanka.
Mr. Ban noted that he had repeatedly brought up the issue of internally displaced persons (IDPs), the political process and reconciliation, and accountability for alleged violations during the long ethnic war in his various telephone conversations with President Mahinda Rajapaksa and messages conveyed through visits by senior UN officials.
The incident between IDPs and the army in Menik Farm two days ago resulting in gunshot injuries of two children was a sign of growing frustrations in the camps.
The Prime Minister assured Mr. Ban that the Government was keen to implement earlier pledges to resettle all IDPs out of the camps by January, but he emphasized that much international aid was needed to facilitate these efforts, especially for de-mining.
Mr. Ban underlined the importance of winning the trust and confidence of the population in the North, especially those in the IDP camps, as failure to do so could undermine the prospects for reconciliation.
Mr. Wickramanayaka indicated that efforts toward an inclusive political framework were continuing, including through close engagement with minority representatives such as the Tamil National Alliance. Mr. Ban stressed the need to expedite a serious, independent and impartial accountability process to look into alleged violation of international law during the conflict as a critical part of moving forward and building peace in Sri Lanka.
The Prime Minister thanked Mr. Ban for UN support and appealed for the Organization to use its influence to facilitate international support for Sri Lanka’s recovery efforts.
Both reaffirmed their commitment to continue close engagement in addressing common concerns during this critical transitional phase. The Secretary-General welcomed the delegation’s pledge to share with the UN the Government’s recovery and resettlement plans through regular exchanges in a comprehensive and transparent manner. He highlighted that this would help the UN and others to support national post-conflict efforts more effectively.
Well...it "sounds good"..

Turkish General Staff’s "temporary security zones" lack legal basis
The office of the Chief of General Staff announced that they declared some parts of Diyarbakır, Hakkari, Şırnak, Siirt and Elazığ "temporary security zones". An information note published on the website of the general staff on 16 September announced the coordinates of locations where entrance is forbidden between 19 September and 19 December 2009. In 2007 some locations in Siirt-Hakkari-Şırnak were declared as "temporary security zones" and in 2008, the number of cities were increased.
Forbidden Military Zones and Security Zones Law number 2565 says "… The chief of staff can declare military security zones in plants owned by the Armed Forces… in depots and ammunition deports …., around shooting ranges… " The same law says "… it has the power to declare security zones in training shooting ranges and manoeuvres for specified periods".
No location can be declared as security zone except the situations mentioned above.
Under the principles of administrative law no one can use a power without entitled by laws or the Constitution. The chief of staff is violating the administrative law by using a power not granted to them by laws. However state organs and military organs have to abide by laws.
The practice of "Temporary Security Zones" is against the Constitution, European Human Rights Declaration, and the Law on Military Forbidden Zones and Security Zones.

Well..Mr Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki
BAGHDAD / Aswat al-Iraq: Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki accused “some Arabs” of interfering in Iraq’s internal affairs and seeking a change of the country’s political map, noting “the Arab stance towards Iraq is still coming short of the required level”. “The Arab position towards Iraq is still looking with a doubtful eye while others are standing idle on the pretext of so-called sectarianism,” Maliki said in an interview to the Lebanese newspaper Annahar. “After six years, the Arab role is still fragile and hesitant despite the clarity that is evident in the political process on a daily basis,” he said. Maliki’s statements come after a diplomatic wrangle with Syria when Baghdad accused Damascus of “harboring Baathist groups and standing behind the Bloody Wednesday blasts that targeted the Iraqi finance and foreign affairs ministries”. The crisis with Syria prompted Iraq to refer the issue to the United Nations and ask the international organization to investigate the bombing attacks that left dozens killed or wounded. The request was confirmed by Iraqi President Jalal Talabani during his recent address before the New York-based UN General Assembly meeting.
“There are attempts to alter Iraq’s political map in the parliamentary elections scheduled to be held in January 2010, which is totally rejected,” Maliki said, deploring “attempts not to let Iraqis decide their own political future with their will”. The Iraqi premier also blamed the “Iraqi parties for they are responsible for a large part of these countries’ interferences”.
A civilian man was wounded in an improvised explosive device blast southwest of Mosul city on Sunday, a Ninewa police source said. Al-Qaeda-in-Iraq (AQI) operatives have laid siege to Tal Abta, western Mosul, threatening truck drivers who transport goods to the district. “Gunmen alleging to belong to al-Qaeda network have imposed an economic siege on Tal Abta district (80 km west of Mosul),” a Sahwa leader in Ninewa province said. “They have threatened to kill truck drivers who transport foodstuffs, water and oil derivatives to the district he noted. The siege came after local residents refused to support armed groups in their “terrorist acts,” he added. During a tribal conference on Sept. 24 the Sahwa leader accused the local government in Ninewa province of working under the umbrella of al-Qaeda and the dissolved Baath Party.“After six years, the Arab role is still fragile and hesitant despite the clarity that is evident in the political process on a daily basis,” he said.
So..It would be about time to come to agreements for cooperation to strengthen each other so there is not that easy for other persons with their personal interests in other countries’ to interfere. And it may be a good idea to mobilize and secure cities like Mosul that have been exposed for many, many attacks, a stronghold for militants and has been a destabilizing ground from day 1. We mean..there are Iraqi forces, U.S. forces and Peshmergas. To let "local residents" take the responsibility after years of destabilization, massacres, and a LOT of police forces, trained army forces, security personnel and civilians are attacked and killed on daily bases since 2003, sounds not just odd but VERY odd!
Or...Considering the attacks and bombings in Turkey where Turkish officers instantly -on the very minute blame PKK for it. And then it turns out that there are al-Qaida living and thriving in Turkey, other militants, and terror organizations responsible for the attacks.
And..Considering JITEM and Turkey´s "own peoples " attacks in cities blamed on PKK and a steady flow of al-Qaida, Ansar-Islam and militants coming through Turkey and Syria into Iraq, and Turkey´s refusal for case fires, solutions and end massacres that have been going on since 1923, as an excuse to destroy, massacres, "resettlement's", destruction, destroyed waters, destroyed farm lands, chemical weapons, poisoned environment and cattles, and the whole #¤# NORTH OF IRAQ...
Or..Iraqi´s are maybe waiting for Turkey which obviously have the experience of attacks and explosives to come and stabilize Mosul that has been destabilized since day 1, for you?
While Police, army forces, civilians, children are killed. And people speaks of "local residents" as if it´s not a question of national security and as if "local residents" have so much more resources than those forces being killed there on a DAILY BASES..
"stabilizing"..
ANKARA — The Turkish government will ask parliament to extend a mandate for military strikes on Kurdish rebel bases in neighbouring Iraq, a report quoted Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan as saying Sunday. "We are in favour of another one-year extention," Erdogan said in New York, where he attended the annual UN General Assembly meeting, according to Anatolia news agency."We will discuss the motion at the first cabinet meeting and send it immediately to parliament," Erdogan said, without specifying a date. Parliament had already once extended the mandate, first approved in 2007. Using intelligence supplied by the United States, the Turkish army has staged a series of air raids against Kurds in the region since December 2007, and in February the following year carried out a week-long ground incursion. Both Erdogan and the army have dismissed calls from Kurdish activists to stop military operations against the group.

Well..it has not been more hurry the last decades than that Israel has had a lot of time for constructions
JERUSALEM - The newly exposed Iranian nuclear facility proves "without a doubt" the Islamic Republic is pursuing nuclear weapons, Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman said Saturday.
at the same time...As the genocidal "war-fare" carousel is instigated again and again and which every one "rides upon"..
Or one could put it this way: It´s rather OBVIOUS!
If Turkey really care for the Palestinians they should come to peace with the Kurds..Right away!
*sigh*

As we said: There are a lot of constructions going on at the same time Lockheed Martin and British weapon companies are doing "business"..
Diyarbakir , Sept 25 (AFP) Thousands of Kurds rallied here today calling for an end to deadly fighting between the army and Kurdish freedom fighters amid government efforts to end a 25-year insurgency. Some 10,000 people -- relatives of Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) killed in clashes -- marched through Diyarbakir , the largest city in Turkey mainly Kurdish southeast, shouting" Martyrs never die."
" Hear the cries of these mothers. We are saying that no policeman, soldier or guerrilla should die. Let live in peace," Hasan Pence, the chairman of a relative support group, said.
" These people have fought for their language, culture and identity, and paid a price. If we are talking about peace today, it is because of them," Pervin Buldan, a lawmaker from the pro- Kurdish Democratic Society Party, said.

UNITED NATIONS – Egypt's foreign minister urged Israel on Friday to release 1,000 Palestinian prisoners in exchange for an Israeli soldier captured in 2006. "If you want a soldier, if you need a certain commodity and you are ready to pay in that commodity then pay for the sake of the soldier — give the Palestinians what they are after," Aboul Gheit said in an interview with the Associated Press on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly. "I would encourage people to do it," Aboul Gheit said. "Why not? What is wrong? Give them the thousand and take your soldiers and give him back to his family and his people and let the family enjoy having him back." The Egyptian minister said a prisoner swap could also lead to an opening of border crossings into Gaza. "The problem is the Israelis are insisting there will not be a permanent opening of the crossings unless Shalit is released," Aboul Gheit said. "What we are telling the Israelis," Aboul Gheit said, "is make the exchange and facilitate for yourself and for the Palestinians." Egypt is also trying to mediate a power-sharing deal between Palestinian rivals Hamas and Fatah, which controls the Palestinian Authority and the West Bank. A unity deal is seen as key to reaching an eventual Israeli-Palestinian peace deal and to rebuilding Gaza after Israel's winter war against Hamas in December and January. "Eventually, we're sure that we will manage to bring the Palestinians together," Aboul Gheit said.

There are a whole LOT to say ever since the CIA was crawling around and sat up the "genocidal village guard system" that have been used ever since
September 25, 2009
Murat Karayilan is the acting commander of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (Partiya Karkeren Kurdistan - PKK) and chairman of the executive council of the Kurdish Democratic Confederation (Koma Civaken Kurdistan - KCK). Karayilan joined the PKK in 1979, just a year before the 1980 Turkish military coup. In an August 11 interview with Karayilan in a PKK camp located in the mountains of northern Iraq, Karayilan said that he would like to return to his home country. “But I am not dreaming about this, I am a realist.” The PKK commander claims at the moment they are following a self-defense strategy: “The biggest part of this strategy is a political struggle. Most military actions are only for reasons of defense.” The PKK is still waiting for the release of the “roadmap” of conditions necessary for the PKK to lay down arms in its decades-old struggle against the Turkish state. The roadmap is the work of imprisoned PKK-leader Abdullah Ocalan, but rather than being released by authorities after its completion in August, the document has ended up in the hands of the public prosecutor’s office (Today’s Zaman, September 5; see also Terrorism Monitor, August 6; Eurasia Daily Monitor, September 10).
“The [KCK] has taken the decision, despite the approach of Ocalan to find a peaceful solution for the Kurdish question, that if the Turkish state insists on old style approaches, we have to resist these as well.”
JT: How do you see the situation of Kurds today in Turkey?
Karayilan: The struggle and resistance of the PKK since August 15, 1983 has brought the Kurdish question to the point of solution. From the denial of the Kurds to the point that Turkey recognizes the Kurdish reality. For the last 16 years, we have been trying to solve the Kurdish question through peaceful ways and announced six unilateral ceasefires, but Turkey did not use this opportunity to solve the Kurdish question. When our leader announced a ceasefire in September 1998, Turkey conspired against him with American support and captured him on February 15, 1999. For the last 11 years all European countries were against us and applied great pressure on us to destroy us. It was a very heavy period. But currently America is pulling back from Iraq and wants to redesign the region. They think that Turkey’s importance for energy is growing as Turkey and Kurdistan become an energy corridor. An example is the Nabucco pipeline project [the planned Nabucco pipeline will send gas from the Caspian region and possibly Iraq to Europe through Turkey]. For this reason, it is more important to solve the Kurdish issue both internationally and regionally, because there is a need for stability. Stability can only be reached by the West through destroying the Kurdish freedom movement and oppressing Kurds or by solving the Kurdish question.
The Turkish state began this period under the name “the Kurdish Opening.” But what the Turkish state is doing now is not enough to solve the Kurdish question. All around the world there are always two parties to talk with, and they have always talked with other parties - Britain with the IRA, Spain with the ETA, etc. What they are doing at the moment is not considering the other party -the PKK at all. They want to solve the question by themselves.
JT: What kind of negotiations do you mean?
Karayilan: For example, the Interior Minister Besir Atalay says the Kurdish issue will be solved in a new Turkish way, there is no other relevant example in the world. We are very surprised and waiting to see what kind of solution they mean. They have not shown how they are going to solve the Kurdish question. Atalay gives his red lines: Ocalan will not be freed, there will not be autonomy for Kurds and no education in the mother language. If these are the red lines, how is he going to solve the Kurdish question? Why don’t Kurds have their education in their own language? This approach cannot solve the Kurdish question at all. They might have the intent to mislead the international community.
JT: What will be in the roadmap?
Karayilan: For the last three months our leader Abdullah Ocalan has been getting different views from intellectuals, journalists and other people through his lawyers. The roadmap will take the constitution of the first Turkish republic into consideration. This constitution does not say that everyone in Turkey is Turkish, but only a citizen of the Turkish republic. At that time [1921] there were no assimilation policies. Kurds could speak their mother tongue and wear Kurdish clothes in parliament. We see the solution within the framework of the constitution of 1921. If the 1921 constitution is taken as a reference, the Kurdish question can be solved. But after July 1923, the Lausanne agreement was signed by the Western powers, which was based on the denial of Kurds and gave the new Turkish authorities the power to change the constitution in 1924.
For the last 85 years, Kurds have been living through genocides and tragedies because of this approach of denying the Kurds, while this land is their own land. Next to this there are many examples where conflicts were solved, like Ireland and Catalonia… The idea is to find examples for similar problems, we are clear about this, but the Turkish state, while having a “Kurdish Opening,” is also having hidden meetings to prepare military attacks against the Kurdish freedom movement.
JT: You mean with the Iraqi government and America?
Karayilan: Yes, with Iran as well. We want sincerity. If they use the old methods of repression, we have the military, political and social power to oppose this. Everybody should know this. Between the 24th and the 27th of July this year, the second congress of the KCK decided to support the roadmap of our leader, but also took the decision to prepare for resistance against the Turkish state.
JT: Joost Lagendijk, former Chairman of the EU-Turkey Joint Parliamentary Committee, says if the PKK stops fighting, Turkey will not have any excuse to avoid giving rights to Kurds. What do you think about this?
Karayilan: When there is no guerrilla force, Turkey will say there is no Kurdish question at all. I do not think Mr. Lagendijk understands the mentality of the Turkish state. For instance, the Turkish premier Recep Tayyip Erdogan said in Moscow in 2004, that “If you do not think there is a Kurdish question, there is no Kurdish question,” and that is only five years ago.
JT: What about the Village Guard program and the amnesty?
We are not discussing amnesty. Who is going to forgive who? Are they going to forgive me? Almost 70.000 civilians were killed by unknown assassins. Who is going to forgive them? Both sides should forgive each other and the Turkish state has to apologize to the Kurdish people.
JT: What do you think about the Ergenekon case? And the prosecution of Colonel Cemal Temizoz who is accused of killing Kurdish civilians in the 1990s?
Karayilan: They have to start court cases against former prime ministers Tansu Ciller and Suleyman Demirel as well. The Kurdish question cannot be solved through cases such as Ergenekon. It is better to set up a project to reach reconciliation within the society. For example, in South Africa there was a reconciliation commission. A fact finding commission should be established to investigate the murders and killings of both sides.
JT: What about the “peace mothers” of killed Turkish soldiers and PKK guerrillas who organized a peace march from Diyarbakir to Ankara this month [August]. What do you think about this initiative?
Karayilan: It is very nice and positive. In reality, both Kurds and Turks want to solve the Kurdish issue in a peaceful way. But the mentality of the denial of Kurds stops the solution of the Kurdish issue. For the solution a brave will is needed, but nobody can show this at the moment. Some like the CHP [Cumhuriyet Halk Partisi] and the MHP [Milliyetci Hareket Partisi, both Turkish opposition parties] are also against solving the Kurdish question.
JT: You said America supports a destruction plan, but on the other hand the United States allows the DTP [Demokratik Toplum Partisi – the PKK’s political wing] to open an office in Washington. There were also meetings between President Obama and the DTP. Is this not a sign that America wants a solution?
Karayilan: America has been supporting Turkish policies against the Kurds for years. They asked Turkey to take steps to solve the Kurdish question, but they did not do this and at the same time tried to annihilate us. From this perspective, you might say the United States wants the Kurdish problem to be solved. I think America wants a solution whether Turkey wants it or not. I do not think America will accept Turkey trying to finish off the PKK. There is an approach by the United States and Britain to solve the Kurdish issue to bring stability to the region. But the approach of France and Germany is different - they do not want Turkey in the EU and do not want the Kurdish question to be solved. If there is war, they can refuse Turkey’s EU membership. There were 26 Kurdish politicians arrested in France without any proof. They could not even find a knife yet they were accused of collecting money for the PKK. France is giving Turkey a message: “Don’t be scared, I’m attacking the PKK in my own country and you can have your war against the PKK. We will be at your back and supporting you.” This might upset the Kurdish people. France should change their policies towards the Kurds.
It is important that both European countries and America support a peaceful solution of the Kurdish question and support the roadmap of Abdullah Ocalan. We will see what is going to happen.

Murat Karayilan is the acting commander of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (Partiya Karkeren Kurdistan - PKK) and chairman of the executive council of the Kurdish Democratic Confederation (Koma Civaken Kurdistan - KCK). Karayilan joined the PKK in 1979, just a year before the 1980 Turkish military coup. In an August 11 interview with Karayilan in a PKK camp located in the mountains of northern Iraq, Karayilan said that he would like to return to his home country. “But I am not dreaming about this, I am a realist.” The PKK commander claims at the moment they are following a self-defense strategy: “The biggest part of this strategy is a political struggle. Most military actions are only for reasons of defense.” The PKK is still waiting for the release of the “roadmap” of conditions necessary for the PKK to lay down arms in its decades-old struggle against the Turkish state. The roadmap is the work of imprisoned PKK-leader Abdullah Ocalan, but rather than being released by authorities after its completion in August, the document has ended up in the hands of the public prosecutor’s office (Today’s Zaman, September 5; see also Terrorism Monitor, August 6; Eurasia Daily Monitor, September 10).
“The [KCK] has taken the decision, despite the approach of Ocalan to find a peaceful solution for the Kurdish question, that if the Turkish state insists on old style approaches, we have to resist these as well.”
JT: How do you see the situation of Kurds today in Turkey?
Karayilan: The struggle and resistance of the PKK since August 15, 1983 has brought the Kurdish question to the point of solution. From the denial of the Kurds to the point that Turkey recognizes the Kurdish reality. For the last 16 years, we have been trying to solve the Kurdish question through peaceful ways and announced six unilateral ceasefires, but Turkey did not use this opportunity to solve the Kurdish question. When our leader announced a ceasefire in September 1998, Turkey conspired against him with American support and captured him on February 15, 1999. For the last 11 years all European countries were against us and applied great pressure on us to destroy us. It was a very heavy period. But currently America is pulling back from Iraq and wants to redesign the region. They think that Turkey’s importance for energy is growing as Turkey and Kurdistan become an energy corridor. An example is the Nabucco pipeline project [the planned Nabucco pipeline will send gas from the Caspian region and possibly Iraq to Europe through Turkey]. For this reason, it is more important to solve the Kurdish issue both internationally and regionally, because there is a need for stability. Stability can only be reached by the West through destroying the Kurdish freedom movement and oppressing Kurds or by solving the Kurdish question.
The Turkish state began this period under the name “the Kurdish Opening.” But what the Turkish state is doing now is not enough to solve the Kurdish question. All around the world there are always two parties to talk with, and they have always talked with other parties - Britain with the IRA, Spain with the ETA, etc. What they are doing at the moment is not considering the other party -the PKK at all. They want to solve the question by themselves.
JT: What kind of negotiations do you mean?
Karayilan: For example, the Interior Minister Besir Atalay says the Kurdish issue will be solved in a new Turkish way, there is no other relevant example in the world. We are very surprised and waiting to see what kind of solution they mean. They have not shown how they are going to solve the Kurdish question. Atalay gives his red lines: Ocalan will not be freed, there will not be autonomy for Kurds and no education in the mother language. If these are the red lines, how is he going to solve the Kurdish question? Why don’t Kurds have their education in their own language? This approach cannot solve the Kurdish question at all. They might have the intent to mislead the international community.
JT: What will be in the roadmap?

It´s massacres, genocides, genocidal "war-fares" committed in cold blood..¤%¤ everywhere! And where people are not doing it to others they are doing it to their own people!
It´s a global genocidal "war-fare" and no %¤%¤ order anywhere! It´s a ¤%¤ "terror council"!
President Yahya A.J.J. Jammeh of Gambia
24 September 2009 – The President of Gambia today called on the United Nations to step in and save Africa from the exploitation and discrimination it has suffered at the hands of the developed world, or the continent will take its own action.
“The UN must come to the rescue of Africa otherwise we Africans stand ready to liberate ourselves from this eternal bondage at any cost,” said President Yahya A.J.J. Jammeh at the second day of the 64th annual General Assembly debate.
“We the Africans have been suffering for too long at the hands of the Westerners and we will put an end to this,” Mr. Jammeh told the Assembly, which has gathered at UN Headquarters in New York for its high-level debate.
The President of the small West African country said that powerful multi-national corporations – which he described as “locusts” – have exploited the continent’s natural resources for centuries, keeping at least 95 per cent of the profits for themselves.
Mr. Jammeh noted that only four African countries receive more than 3 per cent of the profits from the mining of their mineral resources, with the rest making even less from the companies.
In addition, he said that the excruciating debt burdening African nations, which very few rich countries have cancelled, consumes 80 per cent of the 3 to 5 per cent profit left to them by the multi-nationals.
“As from now the AU [African Union] would work towards ensuring that African nations and our farmers get their rightful share of our God-given natural and agricultural resources,” he said.
Stressing that it is “African sweat, blood, tears and natural resources that have built the North throughout almost five centuries of merciless and racist exploitation until today,” he said that we “will no longer accept less than 65 per cent royalty for our natural resources. Enough is enough.”
The President said that “by any means necessary” the new generation of African leaders would put an end to the degrading names they are called, such as “dictators, corrupt leaders, failed States and even rogue States.
“The world will not live in peace and security as long as this dehumanizing and racist status quo continues to prevail with regards to the continent of Africa and Africans,” he stated.
“We have been forced to endure this for far too long and now we are going to put an end to it as we have ended apartheid in South Africa; by force if need be. We will defend our humanity, our dignity, our resources, our interests and our culture as from now.”

Yeah! It´s massacres committed in cold blood..
Mr. Talabani said the bombings and attacks in 2008 and 2009 had “reached the level of genocide and crimes against humanity subject to punishment under international law."
MOSUL, Iraq (Reuters) – Eleven Iraqi soldiers were killed on Friday in a roadside bomb disposal accident in northern Iraq, Iraqi security officials said. The bomb disposal unit was trying to detonate a number of bombs in a vacant area in Bashika, east of the city of Mosul, when the explosion took place, a senior police source said on condition of anonymity. Mosul is plagued by assassinations, roadside bombs and attacks against Iraqi security force.
NINEWA / Aswat al-Iraq: A total of 15 Iraqi army soldiers were killed Friday in a booby-trapped car blast in Ninewa, according to a security source. “The blast occurred when a vehicle carrying elements of the 2nd division of the Iraqi army hit a car bomb in north of Baasheqa district, north of Mosul,” the source told Aswat al-Iraq news agency. “The blast killed 15 soldiers, including a captain. “The explosion took place in a region used to defuse explosives and car bombs seized during security raids,” he said. Eyewitnesses had said earlier that a number of Iraqi army soldiers were killed or injured in a car bomb explosion north of Mosul. The soldiers were defusing a car rigged with explosives in northern Baasheqa district, north of Mosul, when it exploded suddenly, leaving several casualties, an eyewitness said. “The car was among weapons and ammunitions the army found during a military operation in the district,” another witness told Aswat al-Iraq news agency by phone.
An improvised explosive device went off Friday afternoon targeting a police vehicle patrol in central Baghdad, a security source said.
Two policemen were killed in an attack by gunmen on a police checkpoint in central Mosul on Thursday, a local police source in Ninewa said. “Gunmen opened fire at two policemen on duty in a checkpoint on Ghazi street, central Mosul, killing them instantly,” the source told Aswat al-Iraq news agency.

A whole body with it´s own system
This planet is a whole body: The outflow from Iraq further down the coast of Africa is the heart pumping. The rain forests are the lungs. The gulf stream is the artery. And the north Atlantic waters cooling down and keeping the waters balanced are the kidneys! The Gulf stream and the rain forests are the major contributors to keep the climate balanced on this planet. It´s a whole system that must be taken care of and nurtured and not be disrupted. Keep water coming out from Iraq and the Persian Gulf in order to fill the Gulf stream with fresh water and contribute to circulation in the Gulf stream. Clean up the coast in South Africa and keep the stream clean and not clogging by over fertilizing and alga. Keep the Gulf stream clean and circulating. And protect and preserve the rain forests.

It is our common humanitarian and moral responsibility to ensure that the tragedy unfolding in Gaza is brought to an end
24 September 2009 – A resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict based on two States existing side by side in peace and security is indispensable to both regional and global peace, the Turkish Prime Minister told the General Assembly today, demanding an opening of barriers which he said were thwarting the reconstruction of Gaza.
“Turkey has on every possible occasion stressed that it is not possible to turn a blind eye to the appalling conditions in Gaza,” Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan told the second day of the high-level segment of the Assembly, held at United Nations Headquarters in New York.
“It is our common humanitarian and moral responsibility to ensure that the tragedy unfolding in Gaza is brought to an end, and an atmosphere of lasting peace is created in the region,” said Mr. Erdogan.
He told the 192-member Assembly that the three-week Israeli military offensive at the start of the year, which had the stated aim of ending rocket attacks by militants operating in Gaza, quickly turned into a human tragedy. The conflict resulted in the deaths of some 1,400 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and over 5,000 injuries. Many buildings in Gaza were turned to rubble, and even UN sites came under attack, said Mr. Erdogan.
“It has been eight months since the declaration of the ceasefires that ended the hostilities in Gaza,” he said, adding that six months have also passed since an international conference in Egypt pledged billions of dollars for the reconstruction of the area. “However, I regret that the human tragedy in Gaza still goes on.” Mr. Erdogan noted that closures at border crossings block reconstruction materials and supplies from entering Gaza, causing extended suffering for the 1.4 million people living in the Strip.
“We demand that these obstacles are immediately lifted and normalcy restored to Gaza for the sake of peace and security of both Israel and the Palestinians,” he said. Urging the international community to reinvigorate efforts to resolve the problem, the Prime Minister said told the Assembly that it “is our common humanitarian and moral responsibility to ensure that the tragedy unfolding in Gaza is brought to an end, and an atmosphere of lasting peace is created in the region.”
He underscored the importance of resuming Israeli-Palestinian talks – disrupted by the Gaza conflict – as soon as possible, in a wide-ranging speech that touched on talks with Greece over the reunification of Cyprus, reform of the UN, stability in the Caucasus, the territorial integrity of Iraq, and climate change.

Reform the transportation system all over the globe. Stop this unnecessary endless transportation's. If a country have fished shrimps they can handle them as well. Instead of transport them around half the globe to be packed and then half around the globe to be sold. This handling is devastating! And it must be cut. Support small countries to develop their own export. Stop transport living animals. Use trains for transportation's. Shut down old nuclear plants. Support and assist Russia shutting down their old nuclear plants. Don´t build nuclear power stations in earth quake areas and plateaus.

This planet is a whole body: The outflow from Iraq further down the coast of Africa is the heart pumping. The rain forests is the lungs. The golf stream is the artery. And the north Atlantic waters cooling down and keeping the golf stream balanced is the kidneys!
President Jacob Zuma of South Africa: Global financial institutions must be democratized
23 September 2009 – The major international financial and economic arrangements are unfair and have not kept pace with a changing world, South Africa’s President told the United Nations today, calling for the reform of key institutions so that poorer countries have a greater say in how they are run. In an address to the annual General Debate at the 192-member General Assembly, Jacob Zuma said the current global economic crisis spotlights the need to reform the mandate, governance and responsiveness of the so-called Bretton Woods institutions – the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
“These institutions have been unrepresentative since their formation half a century ago,” Mr. Zuma said. “The current arrangements are inadequate and unfair. They do not reflect the changes that have taken place in the global economy.
“We should ensure that the election of the heads of all these institutions is more democratic, and opens opportunities to developing countries. The emerging and developing economies, including the poorest, must have a greater voice and greater participation in these institutions.”
Mr. Zuma also stressed the need for an urgent conclusion to the current, long-running Doha round of global trade negotiations, which have stalled, “in a manner that prioritizes development.” He noted that efforts to eradicate poverty have slowed down as a result of the global recession, and that the world’s poorest countries have been suffering the most, even though they did not cause the crisis.
“The United Nations must play a significant role in finding solutions to the global economic crisis. The crisis should not be an excuse to delay further action on the delivery of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs),” he added, referring to the set of socio-economic targets which world leaders have agreed to try to achieve by 2015.
Turning to his country’s legacy of apartheid, Mr. Zuma observed that it was 20 years ago that the General Assembly adopted a resolution on international solidarity with the liberation struggle in South Africa. “Within months of the adoption of this important resolution, the South African liberation movements were unbanned. Nelson Mandela and other political prisoners were released. The stage was thus set for the negotiations that would eventually lead to the achievement of freedom and democracy in our country. “The role of the United Nations in the struggle to end apartheid is an exceptional example of the collective political will of the international community. It represented the victory of unity over division, of negotiation over confrontation. It represented a clear commitment to the promotion of basic human rights. As South Africans we will always be grateful for that international solidarity.”

Iraq - Was totally without any limits what so ever - filled with weaponry! And the statistics and interval of time where the destabilization was instigated ones again, attacks raised sky high, and people were killed in masses speaks for itself!

Some should have taken help by the Kurds/PKK and freedom fighters in North of Iraq/South of Kurdistan mobilize, secure the borders and unite, instead of causing more destabilization and deaths in the thousands! #¤# Idiots! It´s a WHOLE lot that speaks for itself about "politics of today"!
