[chottala.com] DUDOK IS MADE INACTIVE TO PROTECT ARMY OFFICIALS

Recently Dudok is made inactive to protect army officials after the
election. You know, many army officers became rich within last two
years just like the evil politicians who are now getting out of jail by
paying bribes to judges. So, Dudok is being made inactive so that these
army officers remains out of trials and jail after the election just
like these politicians! ;-)

Price of lands are increased very high due to these army officials who
are not keeping their illegal money in a bank, rather purchasing lands
here and there in remote areas.

[chottala.com] Obama’s Zionist wannabe veep

Obama's Zionist wannabe veep
03/09/2008 05:24:00 PM GMT 
Biden's self-professed Zionism is a death warrant for Palestinian and Israeli innocents.

Biden's self-professed Zionism is a death warrant for Palestinian and Israeli innocents.

By Robert Weitzel

"If I were a Jew, I would be a Zionist. I am a Zionist. You don't have to be a Jew to be a Zionist."- Senator Joseph Biden

Considering the last eight years and the current (viable) options, I'll admit to wanting Barak Obama in the White House in January. Undoubtedly, more people around the world will have a better chance of surviving the next four years with his finger on—or rather off—the button. However . . .

For all of Obama's campaign promises of "change," his choice of Joseph Biden as his running mate sends a clear signal to Israel's lobby in Washington and its right-wing government in Jerusalem that for the next four years there will be no change in the United States' unconditional support or its annual $6 billion in direct and indirect aid.

Predictably, neither will there be a change in the hopelessness and the impotent rage of the Arabs suffering under a U.S.-supported Zionist ideology in Palestine.

Senator Biden is the ardently pro-Israel chair of the Foreign Relations Committee. He is a 36-year veteran politician whose specialty is foreign policy. When he told a reporter from the Jewish cable network, Shalom TV, that he is a Zionist, he knew the implications of that admission for the Palestinians, the entirety of the Arab world, and America's global "war on terror."

Matt Dorf, the Jewish outreach coordinator for the Democratic National Committee, said that "Israel would have no better friend in the vice president's office than Joe Biden." Dorf might just as easily—and as honestly—have said, "Palestinians would have no greater foe in the vice president's office than Joe Biden."

Commenting on the unrest in Palestine in 2007, Biden planted his flag deep in Israel's camp: "The responsibility rests on those who will not acknowledge the right of Israel to exist, will not play fair, will not deal, will not renounce terror."

Obama's running mate has chosen his side. He cannot be a neutral American statesman brokering a Middle East peace or he cannot be a Zionist.

One cannot be a Zionist and place the suffering of Palestinians on the same moral plane as that of Israeli Jews.

One cannot be a Zionist and demand that Israel dismantle its illegal settlements that co-opt nearly half the land in the Gaza Strip and Occupied West Bank.

One cannot be a Zionist and place the blame for sixty years of violence and the deaths of innocent thousands—both Palestinian and Israeli—on the cold-blooded determination with which the Zionist cadre executed the ethic cleansing of 800,000 Palestinians from the land they had inhabited for untold generations.

One cannot be a Zionist and contemplate the return of Palestinians to their homes that are now occupied by Israeli Jews or the rebuilding of the 500 Palestinian villages destroyed during the great Nakba (catastrophe) of 1948.

One cannot be a Zionist and abandon the dream of Eretz Israel in order to live as equals with an Arab neighbor in a truly democratic Palestine-Israel.

One cannot be a Zionist and demand that Israel's apartheid wall be torn down.

One can be a Jew. One can be an Israeli. But one cannot be a Zionist.

Joseph Biden is neither a Jew nor an Israeli. He is the Democratic vice presidential candidate who unabashedly declared, "The Democrats' support for Israel comes from our gut . . . and ends up in our heads." Sound familiar? Haven't we already had eight years of a president who "thinks" with his gut and expects the rest of us to behave like dung beetle larvae? Speaking strictly for myself, I'm tired of their balls of poo.

Could it be there is no difference, no possibility of change as Obama promises, between the Democratic and Republican parties' subservience to Israel's shadow government on K Street or their tacit support of Israel's internationally condemned policies toward the Palestinians?

Could it be that the two parties' overt support for Israel's regional aggression exacerbates the "war on terror" and makes the people their candidates swear to God to protect and defend less safe?

Could it be that the "ball of dung" being fed to the American people by both parties conceals the obvious truth that there is no strategic value in our irrational alliance with Israel?

Commenting on the unrest in Palestine in 1921, Winston Churchill, one of the architects of the modern Middle East, told the House of Commons: "The cause of unrest in Palestine, and the only cause, arises from the Zionist movement, and from our promises and pledges in regard to it."

[chottala.com] Haneef welcome to work in Queensland: Minister

 
iconimg November 4, 2006
Indo-Asian News Service
Sydney, September 05, 2008
Indian doctor Muhammad Haneef, who was jailed on terrorism charges that were subsequently dropped, had been treated "absolutely appallingly" and was welcome to return to work in Queensland, the state's health minister said on Friday.
"Despite all of the hullabaloo that went on around the allegations and investigations under way, there was never any suggestion that he was anything other than a competent doctor," Queensland Health Minister Stephen Robertson told ABC Radio.
"From our perspective, there are no outstanding issues. My personal view is I think he's been treated absolutely appallingly. Certainly the Gold Coast health district have always held him in high regard," Robertson said, adding that Haneef was welcome to apply for his former job.
Haneef, a former Gold Coast registrar, was incarcerated in Australia for three weeks last July after being charged with supporting a terrorist organisation by "recklessly" giving his mobile phone SIM card to people planning the botched London and Glasgow bomb attacks.
Last week, the Australian Federal Police (AFP) dropped its investigation, after over a year of pursuing a botched terrorism case against Haneef that has caused the AFP much embarrassment and cost the taxpayer A$8.5 million.
The charges against Haneef were dropped and he returned to his family in Bangalore on July 29 last year. Haneef's work visa was reinstated last December by the new Labour Immigration Minister Chris Evans.
"Haneef has been cleared of any involvement in the terrorism attack on Glasgow airport and that he is 'no longer a person of interest' are testimony to the way the previous federal government used Dr. Haneef as a political pawn," said United India Associations (UIA) president Raj Natarajan.
"It is high time that the federal government should not only apologise to Dr Haneef but also to the law-abiding and socially responsible Indian community in Australia, in particular overseas trained Indian doctors, who experienced a community backlash because of this bungled investigation and the resulting unwanted media spotlight," Natarajan told IANS.
The series of events from the arrest of Haneef at Brisbane International Airport on July 2, 2007, until his release from detention and return home to Bangalore on July 29 last year is currently being investigated by the John Clarke inquiry - which was on Friday granted an extension by Attorney General Robert McClelland and will submit its report on Nov 14 instead of Sep 30.
Justice Clarke, who had been willing to speak with Haneef either in Australia or overseas, has said it wasn't necessary to interview the Indian doctor as the submission provided by his lawyers was sufficient.
He has also announced that his inquiry would hold a public forum in Sydney on Sep 22 on the effect of terrorism laws relevant to Haneef's case.
Haneef's lawyer Rod Hodgson has said his client would be seeking compensation after the federal inquiry into the case was over. "We have made no secret of the fact that he will be seeking compensation for the immense damage to his career, his family and his reputation."

[chottala.com] Aafia Siddiqui refuses to appear in court in protest

Aafia Siddiqui refuses to appear in court in protest

* Lawyer says Siddiqui strip searched every time she is visited

By Khalid Hasan


WASHINGTON: Dr Aafia Siddiqui refused to appear in a New York court on Thursday in protest against the humiliating treatment to which she is being subjected and because of her traumatised physical, mental and emotional condition.

The next date of hearing at which she would be charged for attempted murder is September 22. Her lawyer, Elizabeth Fink, gave Judge Richard M Breman of the US district court for the southern district of New York, a harrowing description of her client's physical and mental condition, while urging that Siddiqui be immediately shifted to a hospital. She said her present condition was not such as to make her competent to stand trial. She said her client had spent years in confinement and she was deeply worried about her three children.

Strip search: Fink gave the court a chilling description of the strip searches that Siddiqui is being made to endure every time she is visited, even by her lawyer. She refused to appear in court because she did not want to be subjected to the torture and humiliation of another strip search. Fink explained in graphic detail what a strip search involved. She said her client was made to take off all her clothes and stand with her legs apart. She was subjected to an anal examination and ordered to bend over and cough to ensure that she was not hiding anything. Fink said Siddiqui not only needed to be immediately hospitalised but she needed a gynaecologist and she required a psychiatric evaluation. The judge does not have the power to stop the strip search because it is part of prison regulations. The Pakistani-Americans present at the hearing, including Pakistan Consulate officials, were shocked at the description provided by Siddiqui's lawyer and told journalists that they felt utterly disgusted and angered by what they had heard.
 
 
 
Pak-born US scientist's hearing deferred
Press Trust of India
Friday, September 05, 2008, (New York)
The indictment hearing of Pakistan-born US scientist Aafia Siddiqui, with suspected links to Al-Qaida, was postponed as she refused to be strip searched.

The 36-year-old neuroscientist has been charged with trying to kill the American interrogators after her arrest in Afghanistan. She was expected to plead innocence to the charges. But Aafia could not be brought to court as she refused to be strip searched, which is mandatory while moving prisoners
from lock up to court.

US District Judge Richard Berman, on Thursday, postponed the arrangement proceedings until September 22 to give time to the defense lawyers to sort out the issue with the authorities.

If she continues to refuse search, the defense has two options either to persuade the authorities to forego the procedure or allow her to enter plea from the prison on a closed circuit television.

Berman also asked the defense to make suggestions on evaluating her ability to stand trial as her lawyers contended that she had been tortured during the time she was secretly detained by either Pakistani or American authorities.

In the court, her lawyer Elizabeth Fink said Aafia did not want to go through the humiliation of being strip searched and that she should be treated as victims of torture.

Aafia, 36, was reported missing since March, 2003 when she left her parents home in Karachi to visit her uncle in Islamabad, until she mysteriously reappeared in Afghanistan and her lawyers contend that she was secretly detained either by Pakistani or American authorities.
