WIKILEAKS ICELAND and the New Masscre Video

[MAGNES]

A Safe Haven For Investigative Journalists Everywhere
WikiLeaks Inspired "New Media Haven" Proposal Passes In Icelandic Parliament

http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article25743.htm

Reykjavik, Iceland; 4:00 UTC, June 16th 2010.

The WikiLeaks advised proposal to build an international "new media haven" in Iceland, with the world's strongest press and whistleblower protection laws, and a "Nobel" prize for for Freedom of Expression, has unanimously passed the Icelandic Parliament.

50 votes were cast in favor, zero against, one abstained. Twelve members of parliament were not present. Vote results are available at http://www.althingi.is/dba-bin/atkvgr.pl?nnafnak=43014

One of the inspirations for the proposal was the dramatic August 2009 gagging of of Iceland's national broadcaster, RUV by Iceland's then largest bank, Kaupthing:

WIKILEAKS on IceLands collapse. (http://wikileaks.org/wiki/Financial_collapse:_Confidential_exposure_analysis _of_205_companies_each_owing_above_EUR45M_to_Icela ndic_bank_Kaupthing,_26_Sep_2008)

Two changes were made to the proposal from its original form as per the opinion of the parliament's general affairs committee [http://www.althingi.is/altext/138/s/1329.html ]. The first of these
altered slightly the wording of the first paragraph so as to widen the arena for research. The second of these added two new items to the list of tasks for the government:

- That the government should perform a detailed analysis, especially with respect to operational security, for the prospect of operating data centers in Iceland.

- That the government should organize an international conference in Iceland regarding the changes to the legal environment being caused by expansion of cloud computing, data havens, and the judicial state
of the Internet.

Video footage from the proposal's vote will be available at:

The Icelandic parliament has voted unanimously to create what are intended to be the strongest media freedom laws in the world. And Iceland intends these measures to have international impact, by creating a safe haven for publishers worldwide — and their servers.

New mass murder video coming out, pentagon hunting founder.

Julian Assange, who the Feds fear may release State Dept. secrets, denies having them—
but he’s readying video of a deadly U.S. airstrike in Afghanistan.

LINK 2 Stories covered. (http://www.thedailybeast.com/blogs-and-stories/2010-06-15/wikileaks-founder-has-garani-massacre-video-according-to-new-email/?cid=hp:mainpromo1)

After several days underground, the founder of the secretive website WikiLeaks has gone public to disclose that he is preparing to release a classified Pentagon video of a U.S. airstrike in Afghanistan last year that left as many as 140 civilians dead, most of them children and teenagers.

WikiLeaks Preparing to Release Video of Alleged U.S. 'Massacre' in Afghanistan
Iceland Votes for Strong Journalist and Whistleblower Protection Laws
ABC NEWS COVERAGE (http://abcnews.go.com/Blotter/wikileaks-preparing-release-video-alleged-us-massacre-afghanistan/story?id=10954929)

ICELAND tells ZOG to "stick it", they know who raped them.
"a member of the Icelandic Parliament who has worked closely with Assange
said the Afghan video is expected to be released shortly."

-----------------------------------------------

This is what they do deliberately to inflame the population and create fighting resistance,
on purpose, to ensure there is always an enemy there, many accounts of even
NSA Jones,
"there is less than 100 alqueada in Afghanistan". So who are they fighting ?

Wikileaks Soldier Reveals Orders for "360 Rotational Fire" Against Civilians in Iraq
http://www.opednews.com/articles/Wikileaks-Soldier-Reveals-by-Ralph-Lopez-100616-298.html

Ethan McCord, one of the soldiers seen in the now-famous Wikileaks video in which two American Apache helicopters fire upon a relaxed, unhurried gaggle of men in Baghdad, has stated in an interview with World Socialist Website that he witnessed numerous times the indiscriminate slaughter of civilians in Iraq after IED attacks. McCord is on of the soldiers seen helping two wounded children after the attack. He has stepped forward with open opposition to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and written a letter of apology for his part in the incident to the mother of the children, who has accepted his apology. The mother's husband was killed in the attack and found with his body shielding that of one of his children.

McCord said to reporter Bill Van Auken:

"we had a pretty gung-ho commander, who decided that because we were getting hit by IEDs a lot, there would be a new battalion SOP [standard operating procedure].He goes, "If someone in your line gets hit with an IED, 360 rotational fire. You kill every motherf*cker on the street." Myself and Josh and a lot of other soldiers were just sitting there looking at each other like, "Are you kidding me? You want us to kill women and children on the street?" And you couldn't just disobey orders to shoot, because they could just make your life hell in Iraq. So like with myself, I would shoot up into the roof of a building instead of down on the ground toward civilians. But I've seen it many times, where people are just walking down the street and an IED goes off and the troops open fire and kill them."

With Rumored Manhunt for Wikileaks Founder and Arrest of Alleged Leaker of Video Showing Iraq Killings, Obama Admin Escalates Crackdown on Whistleblowers of Classified Information

Wikileaks founder in hiding, fearful of arrest

http://blog.washingtonpost.com/spy-talk/2010/06/new_wikileaks_massacre_video_i.html

"Wikileaks founder Julian Assange has gone into hiding, fearful of arrest by U.S. authorities, an Icelandic parliamentarian confirmed Friday."



Iceland is involved in paying back the USA for their involvement
in Iceland bank troubles, what does the parliament know they
ain't saying, research Peter Orszag, Obama's very young budget
chief who has a very bad dirty history in Iceland and in Russia.
They worked for the murdering Oligarchs raping Russia for one.

And yet..........."They hate us for our freedom".

I like Iceland more with each passing day. What I would not give for a longboat right about now...

The Israeli Role in the Plundering of Iceland

Part Two

THE HALLMARKS OF AN ISRAELI OPERATION

Shortly before the catastrophic collapse of Iceland's three major banks in the fall of 2008, the island nation was ranked as one of the wealthiest and most productive nations in the world. The financial damage caused by the plundering of Iceland's banks is the worst suffered by any country in economic history relative to the size of its economy.

Fantastic post MAGNES.....

Reality is much stranger than fiction.


If that video surfaces with 140+ dead civilians, that could be the end of it all....But all the Admin will have to do is create, prop up, and call out a new enemy, and the American people will BEG for more violence.

Fantastic post MAGNES.....

Reality is

even drudge, like this next update which is incredible coverage
http://drudgereport.com/
I strongly believe drudge takes from blogs and forums, finds.
Many here read links above daily, I try at least headlines,
great coverage on gulf, everyone should try daily.

Research Peter Orszag, he was point man on the Iceland swindle.
He was mentored on the rape of Russia for the Oligarchs. Like
Feith, don't let his geeky looks fool you, they are butchers.


UPDATE

ABC NEWS INTERVIEWS ICELANDIC PARLIAMENT MEMBER

I just have to say wow, in the US they pretend. Doesn't
every Western country have laws like that, not .

This is must watch, there is no journalism nor investigative journalism.
Just outright brainwashing. ABC News looks like gooofs too.
All media is compromised, we are talking ZOG here.

See Paul Craig Roberts and how right he is.

Excellent article! It reminds me of that Michael Ellner quote:


"Just look at us. Everything is backwards; everything is upside down. Doctors destroy health, lawyers destroy justice, universities destroy knowledge, governments destroy freedom, the major media destroy information and religions destroy spirituality."

I love that quote, I saw it on a website years ago and for whatever reason didn't save it. Thanks for posting it.

any takes on this?

[joe_momma]

Umm - an air strike which killed 100- 140 civilians and it happened last year (i.e., 2009) -

I may be confused, but after late January, Bush was no longer in charge

- - I wonder why the major news media reporters are not mentioning this..... :conf:

US Might 'Assassinate' Wikileaks Founder

Daniel Ellsberg who destroyed Aaron Brown on CNN
pre 2003, called a traitor on the show by Brown,
Brown disappeared later, daughter is on now.

MUST WATCH, Ellsberg covers Obama, his attempted assasination,
assasination statements by President, NO RESISTANCE from media.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2-qzn1WmKE




WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange hired lawyers to represent the Army intel analyst accused of leaking State Dept. secrets. But the Pentagon sent them away. Philip Shenon reports on WikiLeaks concerns about Bradley Manning's treatment in custody—and the video of a U.S. massacre in Afghanistan, coming as soon as next week.

Scott Horton Interviews Glenn Greenwald
http://antiwar.com/radio/2010/06/18/glenn-greenwald-26/

Obama administration continues the Bush legacy of avoiding governmental accountability

how Wikileaks fills the government watchdog role abdicated by the overly deferential press corps and the resemblance of character attacks on Daniel Ellsberg and SPC Bradley Manning.




- - I wonder why the major news media reporters are not mentioning this..... :conf:

Obama has expanded all wars, the NeoCons never went away, they are
still working, the front line faces have changed, PNAC is being fulfilled for
Israel, trillions later, the media is in on it, Ellsberg covers a lot of this in
above video, this is making MSM. I think your question was rhetorical,
we know the answers in general, "same old boss".

[JDRock]

....between this and the edgar steele case, i think we really dont have much time left.
