Laboratory tests showed the presence of salmonella that caused mass intestine poisoning, he said. It was established that only the children who ate the omelette fell ill, while the children who ignored the omelette were not infected.

Box 223, CH-8044 Zurich, Phone +41-1-350 65 50, Email: editors@currentconcerns.ch The Way to the New World Order Shameless exploitation and shameless dictatorship by Michel Chossudovsky Barely a few weeks after the military coup in Chile on September 11, 1973, overthrowing the elected government of President Salvador Allende, the military Junta headed by General Augusto Pinochet ordered a hike in the price of bread from 11 to 40 escudos, a hefty overnight increase of 264%. This economic shock treatment had been designed by a group of economists called the “Chicago Boys”. At the time of the military coup, I was teaching at the Institute of Economics of the Catholic University of Chile, which was a nest of Chicago trained economists, disciples of Milton Friedman. On that September 11, in the hours following the bombing of the Presidential Palace of La Moneda, the new military rulers ... >> full

The Occidental Superpower The Project for the New American Century got off to an ominous start with the election of George W. Bush in 2000. "Election" is the wrong word, of course, since it is already ancient history that Bush was selected over the democrat Al Gore through the good graces of a republican-leaning Supreme Court decision. This is more a criticism of the US electoral process than George Bush per se. However, an increasing number of commentators fear that the republican strategy for dealing with the globe's problems is only exasperating them. In the wake of 9/11, Bush declared the spread of democracy and freedom, not to mention the eradication of evil, as the cornerstone of his foreign policy agenda. "It is the policy of the United States to seek and support the growth ... >> full

From: MSN NicknameEagle_wng (Original Message) Sent: 4/24/2006 2:08 AM Russia`s rocket woes Russian policy makers have reacted with fury to a recent article in Foreign Affairs discussing the growing problems Russia has in maintaining its ICBM nuclear delivery systems. The article, entitled 'The Rise of U.S. Nuclear Primacy,' by Keir A. Lieber and Daryl G. Press, ran in the March issue of Foreign Affairs. And it 'exploded like a bomb in the Russia`s higher political circles,' analyst Pavel Baev wrote in Monday`s edition of Eurasia Daily Monitor, which is published by the Jamestown Foundation, a conservative Washington think tank. The article provoked reactions in the Moscow publications 'Nezavisimoe voennoe obozrenie on March 31 and in Vedomosti on March 22,' Baev wrote. 'The argument in the article is hardly new: The quantitative decline and qualitative degradation of Russian strategic forces create a situation where they could be completely obliterated by a first, `disarming` U.S. strike,' Baev wrote. 'Whether this crucial threshold in the strategy of nuclear deterrence has already been ... >> full

From: MSN NicknameEagle_wng (Original Message) Sent: 4/24/2006 3:12 AM TRANSITIONS ONLINE: The Chechens: Against Resistance by Rebecca Gould 20 April 2006 A reading of an important new study of North Caucasus history suggests a reappraisal of "Chechen identity" is in order. The Lone Wolf And the Bear: Three Centuries of Chechen Defiance of Russian Rule, by Moshe Gammer. University of Pittsburgh Press, 2005. 250 pages. Three hundred thousand dead. A city reduced to ashes. A nation scattered across continents. After more than 10 years of war in Chechnya, one has to ask the question: what was it for? Why did a people offer itself up for slaughter by a world power? What is the sense of butchery? What is the purpose of genocide? Pose these questions to most political analysts who write on Chechnya and you'll get a variety of answers. But due to a complex set of factors – Soviet ideologies, political naivete, warrior culture, tribal attitudes – the Chechens entered into a battle, which they refuse to ... >> full
