GravatarRE: the Porter Goss photo at the Operation 40 dinner party in Mexico City...

"There are many intriguing connections hinted at by Goss’s presence in the photo: at the time it was taken the CIA's covert action chief in Mexico City was David Atlee Phillips, AKA Maurice Bishop, who reportedly met with Oswald in Dallas before the assassination.

Other connections: in the well-received “Deadly Secrets,” authors Warren Hinkle and William Turner name Rafael 'Chi Chi' Quintero, Lois Posada Carriles, Felix Rodriguez and Frank Sturgis as members of Operation Forty, under the overall control of E. Howard Hunt.

Sturgis, a member of the team that broke into Democratic National Committee headquarters at the Watergate complex in 1972, later admitted to having been part of Operation Forty."

GravatarI forgive you for the affair, wife tells Prescott

Pauline Prescott has told her husband John Prescott that she forgives him over his affair with his diary secretary Tracey Temple.

The wife of the Deputy Prime Minister told her husband at their home in Hull that she was devastated by his confession of his affair but she put part of the blame on the strains of life at Westminster.

Last night, allies of Mr Prescott dismissed as "absolute garbage" rumours at Westminster that he was considering quitting frontline politics to rescue his marriage. Family friends who have telephoned Mrs Prescott to show their support this week said that she was not a "quitter" but wanted privacy to work through the difficulties with her husband.


GravatarI hope that the Italian government is able to break up Berlusconi's media empire. It is the only way to protect their freedom.

I also hope they throw the fucker in jail for the rest of his life.

Prescott affair 'exploited power'

Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott "exploited power for his own sexual gratification", the diary secretary he had an affair with has said.

Tracey Temple was speaking in an interview with the Mail on Sunday newspaper for which she was paid in excess of £100,000.

Ms Temple said she had gone public to "tell my side of the story".Mr Prescott has said he regretted the affair and that it had had left wife Pauline "devastated".

I've had to live with the lies and the misinformation that was actually written about me, causing damage to my reputation and possible my future career
Tracey Temple. In the newspaper, Ms Temple is quoted as saying "we made love in John's office" and that "we were very lucky we never got caught".


GravatarEU and US strike different tones on Iran

BRUSSELS (Reuters) - The United States and the European Union struck different tones on Saturday on how to respond to Iran's nuclear defiance while insisting they were in full agreement.

Speaking at a transatlantic conference, EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana said no one was considering military action over Tehran's refusal to halt uranium enrichment and Europe did not want to join a "coalition of the willing" against Iran.

Influential U.S. Senator John McCain told the Brussels Forum in a speech on Friday night: "There is only one thing worse than military action, and that is a nuclear-armed Iran."

He said the United States would not stand by and let Iran wipe out Israel, as Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad had called for.

SEN. GEORGE ALLEN ®, VIRGINIA: Good evening. Good to be with you, David.
GREGORY: Thank you. Let me ask you about Karl Rove first. Are you comfortable at this point that he will not be a liability for this White House, particularly since his job one now this year will be helping Republicans like yourself get reelected?
ALLEN: Oh, Karl Rove has a proven track record of success for this president as well as for other candidates, and so I think he‘s going to be focused on politics and campaigns and he‘s been awfully good at it and he has a great track record of winning.
GREGORY: Senator, it‘s a diplomatic response, but there is a certain context here and that is that he‘s appearing before the grand jury for the fifth time. Is this not a distraction for Republicans and for the White House particularly?

ALLEN: Well, I have my own advisers. Dick Wadhams is my campaign manager he ran John Thune‘s campaign against Tom Daschle in 2004 and he ran Wayne Allard‘s campaign. Everyone has their own campaign people on their own particular race. And so Karl Rove is somebody who I‘ve worked with in the past when I was chairman of the Republican Campaign Committee, and I really do admire his knowledge and I think the president also has a great deal of confidence invested in him.
GREGORY: You don‘t think he‘s compromised by this investigation at all?
ALLEN: Oh, as I was just listening to the report there—because I‘ve been busy doing other things, I don‘t get to watch grand jury investigations, and of course they‘re closed—and so that report said that Karl Rove was not the target, so he was in there for some testimony. Oh, I‘m sure it‘s something that is distracting in that he has to prepare for it, but it doesn‘t have any impact on my particular reelection campaign.
etc.

GravatarIran rejects demands to abandon enrichment

TEHRAN (Reuters) - Iran refused on Saturday to stop uranium enrichment after a U.N. report said it had done little or nothing to prove it was not developing nuclear arms.

Instead, it repeated a long-standing offer to let international inspectors make unannounced checks as long as the U.N. Security Council -- invoked by the West several months ago to put pressure on Iran -- dropped the case.

Mohamed ElBaradei, head of the U.N. International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), delivered a report on Friday saying U.N. checks in Iran had been hampered and Tehran had rebuffed requests to stop making nuclear fuel.

Mohammad Saeedi, deputy head of Iran's Atomic Energy Organization, told state television that Iran wanted the Security Council, which has the power to impose sanctions, to pass the case back down to the IAEA.

Wog - British racial term originating in the colonial period of the British Empire. It was generally used as a label for the natives of India, North Africa and the Middle East. By the 1950s it had become a pejorative term used in order to offend.

The origins of the term are unclear. Most dictionaries say "wog" either possibly or likely derives from the generic term golliwog after the Golliwogg, a "grotesque" blackface minstrel doll-character from a children's book published in 1895. Various facetious explanations include the claim that it originated from acronyms for "Westernized/Worthy/Wily Oriental Gentleman" or variants thereof, or for "Workers of Government" or "Wards of Government", used to refer to early immigrants into the United Kingdom. Such attempts to explain the word's origin are apocryphal at best.

The use of the word is discouraged in Britain, and most dictionaries refer to the word with the caution that it is slang, derogatory, and offensive. James Robertson & Sons, a British manufacturer of jams and preserves, discontinued use of the Golliwog as its trademark in the early 1990s for similar reasons. It is generally considered unwise to use it in modern Britain without expecting an extreme reaction.

The saying "The wogs begin at Calais" was originated by George Wigg, Labour MP for Dudley, in 1945. In a parliamentary debate concerning the Burmese, Wigg shouted at the Tory benches, "The Honourable Gentleman and his friends think they are all 'wogs'. Indeed, the Right Honourable Member for Woodford [i.e. Winston Churchill] thinks that the 'wogs' begin at Calais." Wigg's coinage, sometimes paraphrased as "Wogs start at the Channel" is commonly used to characterise a stodgy Europhobic viewpoint, and more generally the view that Britain (more commonly England) is inherently separate from (and superior to) the Continent. In this case, "wog" describes any foreign, un-English person.
