Italian Lefebvrite priest questions Holocaust In the wake of a global furor triggered by Pope Benedict XVI’s decision to lift the excommunication of four traditionalist Catholic bishops, including one who cast doubt on the Holocaust, another leader in the traditionalist Society of St. Pius X has questioned whether the Nazis used gas chambers for anything other than “disinfection,” and said that people who hold revisionist views on the Holocaust are not anti-Semites.Iraq sends Syria first ambassador in decades

All Hail Glow Ball Dhimming:
Obama's administration has drafted a letter to Iran from the president aimed at unfreezing US-Iranian relations and opening the way for face-to-face talks, the Guardian has learned.The US state department has been working on drafts of the letter since Obama was elected on 4 November last year. It is in reply to a lengthy letter of congratulations sent by the Iranian president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, on 6 November.
Behold, The Egg of All Persuasions! But...... this woo the Iranian thing was started over 2 years ago, as I reported here often... to the yawns, jeers, burps and spitootling cries of UNHINGED LUNATIC! from the disgruntled throng. This is straight up Baker Plan. Yes, the guy we brung to the dance begun it. The Egg of All Persuasions merely continues it. Undeceive yourselves!

Prickly Putin Deflates Dell at Davos
Dell founder Michael Dell learned the hard way not to patronise an ex-KGB agent after his sales pitch to Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin attracted a caustic response. In a question and answer session following a 40-minute speech by Putin at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Dell asked Putin how he could help Russia to expand its technology and make the best use of IT talent. "You see, the trick is that we don't need any help," a prickly Putin retorted. "We don't need help. We are not invalids. We don't have limited mental capacity."

Clinton hits back at 'free enterprise Putin'“under the circumstances of globalization, the interdependence is so huge that all countries would be interested in” working out common rules for the world economy.
“What do I mean? Let’s take as an example only,” he said. “The Russian Federation has almost 50 percent of its gold and currency reserves in the American economy and we are not indifferent to what budget deficit America will have in 2009.”

There is evidence that the Georgian attack on South Ossetia on August 7 was carefully planned. High level consultations were held with US and NATO officials in the months preceding the attacks. The attacks on South Ossetia were carried out one week after the completion of extensive US - Georgia war games (July 15-31st, 2008). They were also preceded by high level Summit meetings held under the auspices of GUAM, a US-NATO sponsored regional military alliance.

MPH & ETA:
As the economy melted down in the Fall, the New York Times reported that Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein “was the only Wall Street executive at a meeting at the New York Federal Reserve on Sept. 15 to discuss the A.I.G. bailout.” That bailout was a big deal to Goldman Sachs, because AIG insured many of its investments - and the spectacle of New York Fed chief Tim Geithner letting Goldman’s CEO in the room to take part in negotiations over the government bailout looked like a textbook example of the kind of crony capitalism that candidate Barack Obama said he’d put an end to as president.Geithner Got $434,668 Severance From NY Fed
Wall Street’s Marxist Presidential Pawn
Wall Street control of the Democratic Party may come as a surprise or shock to those who have been led to believe over the years by the liberal media that the Republican Party is the party of fat cats, rich people, and special interests. But the vote count for Geithner, the President of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, speaks for itself. Of the 60 votes in favor, 50 came from Democrats (including independent Senator Joe Lieberman). Only four Democrats (including independent Bernie Sanders) voted against Geithner.Wall Street wanted Geithner because he had already been deeply involved in the bailouts of the big banks and had powerful political connections to such groups as the National Committee on U.S.-China Relations, the Group of Thirty, and the Council on Foreign Relations. In short, this former employee of Kissinger Associates was a Wall Street favorite.
But how could Obama, a controversial figure with a revolutionary Marxist background, communist connections, and socialist worldview, emerge as the favorite of Wall Street interests? The short answer is that he is the perfect front man.
