“The current escalation of military conflict resulted in part from the lack of a neutral and effective peacekeeping force operating under an appropriate UN mandate,” Obama said. “Russia cannot play a constructive role as peacekeeper.”

DUH! I never got why would they allow russia to be the only peacekeeper in the regions in the first place! It’s like getting a fox to guard chickens, or a wolf to herd sheep. But I think the main reason is that noone really saw Georgia as a real country worth of UN’s attention. Not that UN does anything, but still. Every conflict saw UN forces arriving to mediate the seittuation, except Abkhazian and South Osetian conflicts. Instead the “friendly” “northern brother” of Georgia did a huge “favor” and took under it’s control the breakaway regions. Then slowly but surelly made sure, everyone in the republics got russian passports, becoming direct subjects of kremlin.

the Olympics, of course. Friday night, David and I watched the Opening Ceremonies. I was wide-eyed and well impressed. It made me want to be there more than ever, though. I have a Chinese friend I met online (Hi Lu Fei!) And his blog is pretty interesting - you should read it. There’s a link at the bottom (Fareonline). One of the most interesting things he had to say about the opening ceremonies (all of it is interesting) is this: 
 …I think that is the moment not only for the world get to known the new China, but the moment that a new image of world standing China. from decades of people’s struggling and sacrifice, the China is not the way it used to be, it is a fresh new image of China which contain harmony, peace, economic developed, intelligent, huge population, open, good will, etc.

I am sure, most of the people don’t even know what the conflicts in South Ossetia and Abkhazia are about. Some might think Georgia is trying to conquer little peace loving nations and enslave their people. Others might think Georgia is trying to cut parts of russia off.
Let me tell you an example: Imagine that Mexican population of Arizona demanded autonomy from USA and since they are significant part of the local population, they got it. Then after some time their population increased. English language was rarely heard. Everyone spoke Spanish. Older generation of Mexicans were getting along with the locals good, but the new generation separated themselves and were kind of aggressive against locals (meaning the initial American population). There were occasional clashes between Mexican and American youth. And then, all of a sudden they declared that Arizona was always part of Mexico, USA invaded it, and they want […]

In October 2005 - the pro-Israel western mass-media mistranslated and distorted Iran’s president Dr. Ahmadinejad’s speech - in which he was blamed to have vowed to “wipe off Israel and carry out another Holocaust against Jews”.
The deceptive translation of his speech was carried out by Middle East Media Research Institute (Memri), an Israeli propaganda outlet - which is used by major western media organizations as “an independent” news source. However, in fact Memeri happens to be owned by Israeli Zionists, David Wurmser and his wife Meyrav Wurmser and former Mossad official, Colonel Yigal Carmon. The staff is full of other Zionist Jews and former Israeli military officials.
Memri is known for similar propaganda tactics in the past also. No where he demanded the elimination of Israel or annihiliation of Jews. He called for the greater governance for Palestine.
However, if properly translated, Dr. Ahmadinejad actually call for the removal of Zionist-regime in power in both […]

Georgia: Russia has invaded and we are under attack [Belfast Telegraph] - On 8/8/8 too! No. A disputed territory that you invaded is under attack, and now you’re getting burned, along with 1,500 innocent people. Putin says, oh yeah, war has started. South Ossetia broke away from Russian neighbor Georgia over a decade ago. The next question should be who or what made the Georgians try and reintegrate South Ossetia by force now? Video included.
Did the US prep Georgia for war with Russia? [Wired.com Danger Room] - “One of the U.S. military trainers put it to me a bit more bluntly. “We’re giving them the knife,” he said. “Will they use it?” I think……yeah.

Here’s a quick excerpt
I’ve become quite accustomed to the ways and the mentality of the modern Left. Having spent years working for government departments in London, going on marches and demos during a brief flirtation with the Left in my experimental early 20s and paying a fervent eye on UK and world politics, I’ve gathered all the information I need to make a firm assessment. I could write a 10,000 word dissertation on it, or, for brevity, I could simply underline the salience of Nick Cohen’s position on the matter. For he says everything I could say on the Left (including their anti-war lobby) except far better.
The Stop The War Coalition, and the legions of disparate leftists and anti-American firebrands have been particularly vocal since the 2003 Iraq war.
The New Statesman, the Guardian and the BBC have led the charge forward, and only the insanity and excesses of the New Left have caused […]

more about “Aubrey de Grey Says We Can Avoid Aging “, posted with vodpod
Source: Ted.com

A true maverick, Aubrey de Grey challenges the most basic assumption underlying the human condition — that aging is inevitable. He argues instead that aging is a disease — one that can be cured if it’s approached as “an engineering problem.” His plan calls for identifying all the components that cause human tissue to age, and designing remedies for each of them — forestalling disease and eventually pushing back death. He calls the approach Strategies for Engineered Negligible Senescence (SENS).
With his astonishingly long beard, wiry frame and penchant for bold and cutting proclamations, de Grey is a magnet for controversy. A computer scientist, self-taught biogerontologist and researcher, he has co-authored journal articles with some of the most respected scientists in the field.
But the scientific community doesn’t know what to make of him. In July […]

After long-lasting confrontation between russian and georgian governments it has happened! Russia has got the chance to invade Georgia, an independent European country that is trying so hard to overcome the post soviet problems and build democracy. I don’t think South Osetia means a lot to russia (yes, I am not capitalizing russia, cause it sucks), it’s just great opportunity to teach Georgia a lesson for being so willing to join European community and the entire world in building future world. Plus russians have always hated Georgians. Because russian women adore Georgian men for their bravery, their knightly character and respect to women, and of course their ability to satisfy women better than drunkard russian men. I am sure that is the main reason behind this war. But to get back to the seriousness of this topic, russia has defied all the principles of the modern international law. And mainly […]
