Presidential Candidate Ron Paul defended al Qaeda?

September 13, 2011

News Worldwide – On Monday, Republican Presidential candidate Ron Paul was made quite by loud boos from a crowd. It was during a tea party when GOP Presidential debate began after proposing America’s foreign police performed a part in the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

Mr Paul 76 tried to place his dispute to gash military expenditure, opposing that occupation was the ‘real motivation’ after the acts of terrorism by Muslim extremists against the U.S.

But a challenging reply from presidential candidate, Pennsylvania lawmaker Rick Santorum, in its place received more support, after he dismissed Mr Paul’s remarks as ‘irresponsible’.

Earlier to the debate, Mr Paul, had revealed on the U.S. answer to the 9/11 attacks in his paper Texas Straight Talk column.

He said that ‘the attacks of 9/11 justified a reply. But the way which was used to answer and respond has permitted radicals in the Muslim world to spread a very intimidating story about us and our incentive in occupying their lands.’

Mr. Paul also claimed that occupation was the ‘real motivation behind the September 11 attacks and the vast majority of other instances of suicide terrorism,’ inscription that the U.S. will be more safe ‘If we had targeted our response to only the thugs and criminals who attacked us, and refrained from invading countries that had nothing to do with it.’

‘We chose a course of action that led to the further loss of 8,000 American lives, left 40,000 wounded and has hundreds of thousands seeking help at the Veterans Administration. We are three to four trillion dollars poorer. Our military is spread dangerously thin around the globe, at the expense of protection here at home,’ he said.

But for Mr Santorum 53, the congressman’s comments were attraction for an anxious argument about the U.S. reaction to terrorism.

Speaking to Mr Paul, Mr Santorum mentioned to the column: ‘You said that it was our actions that brought about the actions of 9/11. Congressman Paul, that is irresponsible.’

Mr Paul protected his position; disagreeing America would have saved trillions of dollars if the country cut funding from wars.

The room resonated with boos and hisses, nevertheless, silencing the congressman as he warranted his sympathies.

‘This idea that whole Muslim world is attacking us because we’re free and prosperous, that is just not true,’ he said.

Well, I do not see this as defending Al Qaeda in anyway. This is one big fact that US has been spending so much on wars which it could have spent in US to create a better US. We are facing economic problems for sure. We are having jobs problems for sure and all this is linked back to the fact where our money is going. AN ordinary American cannot even imagine what is going on in wars. How money is sent and pent to protect one American in these wars. It will be more appropriate to put it this way that it is not a war fought with men and arms but rather a war fought with money, money and more money. The ay you will stop injecting the money, we will hear that we lost the war. So, American soldiers are fighting with money while on the other hand it is the extremists that are actually fighting with weapons and men.

It is just time to face the facts or the worst is still on its way. We are not doing anything to stop it. We are not even willing to accept plain facts. You may win prudential seat with your arguments that go in your favor but what will you do when you do face the real thing. Will you change your stance then?

How many people died in 911? Are we moving towards world war again?

September 12, 2011

News Worldwide – 3000 people died in 9-11 terror attacks. This year this day was marked as the 10th anniversary of 911 attacks. Once may rethink how many people died in 9-11 attacks and what did the world faced and experienced after their death.
The figure of the dead ones was phenomenal as the figure is not of those who died in a event which was a few weeks or months long, rather they all died in one day, in one moment and in one building.

The day, which is a memorial of the dead ones, shows how nationalist are Americans. It is a good gesture and a tribute but one may rethink about what US government did in its return. Did US government earn from their mistakes? Was United States approach same as the Japan after it was hit by two nuclear bombs in word war 2?

Japan who is the sole victim of nuclear weapons has signed documents that prevent Japan to have its own nuclear weapon and apart from that they do not have a standing army. Do we expect US doing the same after it was hit by terrorist in 9 11 that caused a huge number of casualties? No! Neither do we assume US did any of the sort nor it is far in sight.
So where is the end, if we are yet not learning from our lessons?

Are we moving towards another world war? Will it be war between the terrorists and US? If so who will stand victorious? The one that have hundreds of nuclear weapons or those who perform their job via small yet effective terror plots.

U.S. base bombed in Afghanistan with 77 Americans wounded while 3 years girl dead

September 11, 2011

77 American soldiers wounded in the blast
A three years girl died in hospital as could not sustain the wound

News worldwide – 77 American soldiers are reported a wounded after Taliban truck bomb stuck in American base in eastern Afghanistan. The event took place during the evening of 10 anniversary of September 11 attacks. Among other damages are two Afghan civilians that are reported dead. The attack took place against the NATO and US forces in Afghanistan on Sunday.

It has been stated time and again the there are several security threats all over the world from terrorists in the wake on 10th anniversary of sept 11 terror attacks.

A blast was heard outside the Combat Outpost Sayed Abad in Wardak province on Saturday. The blast of extreme nature as windows broke with it intensity said officials. Soon afterwards the responsibility was claimed by Taliban.

8 wounded civilians were taken to Wardak’s clinic, where 2 could not sustain the injures and died. There was a 3 years girl that died with the wounds.

Now the major portion of this news story which will grab the attention of my readers is the blat on American base in Afghanistan during the 10 anniversary eve. But I feel the terrorist have a bigger message that just hurting the moral of American soldiers in Afghanistan. As terrorism has no religion and values, they are willing to kill just about anyone. Now what was the fault of that girl who was just 3 years old. Can anyone imagine her pain that she felt in the last moments of her life? Can we as a human imagine that we die because our pain becomes greater than our willingness to survive? In such moments when pain becomes greater than life and one asks to die, is one of extreme in human acts.

Everyone wants to live but those who cause such extreme pain cannot be human themselves. How can they preach about a divine message that has no limits? The message of peace much be made an addition note now. It is the responsibility of every mother to tell its children the difference between life and death so that there is a sharp decrease in the making of suicide bombers.

What are the signals of credible terrorist threat on 10th anniversary of 9/11 attacks

September 10, 2011

What signals are used to calculate credible terrorist threat?

Terrorist Threat prevails on 10th anniversary of 9/11 attacks

Terrorist threat will prevail till 17th September.

News Worldwide – A credible terrorist threat is there. Federal officialdoms have reported that a possible threat is there just a day before the 10th anniversary of 9/11 attacks.

This latest threat is quoted as a credible and specific one by official yet not confirmed. Whenever there are reports of a credible terrorist threat one may wonder how did they come to know about the threat and if they did come to know that there is a threat, why couldn’t they confirm where it came from and what is it going to cause?

The reason for this is that the intelligence agencies get light and loud signals in various shapes, for example, not regular activity on phones and text messages. Moreover, these days the blog updates are also used to learn the activities of terrorist organizations. These blog updates only mention about their intension and sometimes clear threats but most of them are not serious and just to create fear and panic. Therefore, the intelligence agencies do not disclose the sources of their information and only quote that a threat is there and it is requested not to use this and that.

After the death of Osama bin Laden, his computer hard disks disclosed many of such plans which were in particular made for 9/11 10th anniversary and as far as I can think the agencies would have got clues form there that some of the plans made by Osama bin Laden were already sent to the concerned people and therefore despite Osama bin Laden is dead, Al Qaeda may try to operate them, to demonstrate their capabilities and strength.

The latest threat is related to the intelligence report that says, 3 people have entered US with the motive of performing a ‘vehicle-borne attack’ in New York or Washington D.C., near the anniversary of 9/11 if not exactly on 9/11 2011. Similar threats have been reported in Pakistan, where in Peshawar high security measures are taken. It is reported that the terrorists have plan to perform their plan till 17th of Sep for sure.

US economy opting for a Chilean model to help economy

September 10, 2011

News Worldwide — Chilean Model is the phrase that has almost every ones attention in United States. Many have though ti to be the actual solution for all their problems. But what is Chilean model anyway?

When I read the term, “Chilean Model” initially I thought it was something or some news about model or models from Chile. I am talking about fashion models here. Anyway I was wrong. This is not what it means. It rather refers to a socials security service model, which has been applied in Chile. According to Chile security service, worker are provided the option to rather chose a pay as you go plan, which is also part of United States system, or go for the Chile security service, which lets them put their payroll tax into a retirement account. This way, they may take advantage from compound interest.

In Chile almost 93 percent of people have selected the new system of security service and it is basically run by private companies. This system guarantees advantages for elderly. Moreover, the Chile’s former Labor Secretary stated that they have informed all those who have already retired that the news security system is not going to hurt them.

This security system has made Chile and every person in Chile a capitalist and this is not it, but there is more to it. In Chile this model has increased saving rates from 10% to 27% of GNP. There is no payroll tax, and with full employment and with such high savings amount, the economy has flourished.

So this Chilean model of security service that has helped the Chilean economy flourish might be applied in US where the jobs are less and economy itself is facing trouble.

How the date 9/11 is written in Pakistan!

September 9, 2011

News Worldwide — As the date 9/11 is coming near, we can hear and read a lot of news stories that talk about 9/11 facts and figures. It is because of this overwhelming discussion on the date that so many conspiracy theories are there. But for now I am not going to share yet another conspiracy theory on 9/11. This article deals with one of 9/11 facts and it is the date 9/11 itself. I also want to add here that it is not about what is chapter 9 and verse 11 of Quran all about either. Anyway, let me not take ore of your time and here is it all about.

Interestingly enough 9/11 is not written as 9/11 or 9-11 in Pakistan. Rather the pattern of writing date in Pakistan is as follow: The date of the month comes first and then the month is added. So in Pakistan 9/11 is written as 11-9 or 11/9.

In other words, the standard method of writing date is that the first the date of the month is mentioned, followed by the month and then the year. If you come across a document from Pakistan that has 11-9 or 11/9 written on it do not be mistaken or confused.
What makes the 9/11 more interesting is the fact that in Pakistan 9/11 is not taken as a date for the attacks but rather it is a name given to the day September 11 attacks took place.

Therefore, you would find many news articles, opinion based articles and other material that still mention 9/11 as 9/11 in Pakistan.
What do you think is 9/11 a date or a name given to the day when September 11 attacks took place?

A high voltage electricity transmission line tripped out of service, causing San Diego power outage

September 9, 2011

News Worldwide — What causes an electricity transmission unit or line to trip off?

After a high voltage transmission line was tripped, many parts of southern California, parts of Arizona and Mexico are facing a massive power outage.

It is expected that the power outage will remain until Friday.

The main area reported for power outage is placed in San Diego County and Southern Orange County. Later it stretched to Arizona and the Mexican state of Baja California. It was the tripping of lines that caused loss of power.

The basic reason of a line to trip off is over load on the line or heating up of the line. The line may get heated up for another two reasons. It can be either the hot weather making the lines hot and secondly, an internal default in the lines. The friction of high electricity is so high and hot that it can bring down major big systems. Same appears to be the case of San Diego power Outage.

The fastest mode to resolve the line tripping is as follow:

Locate the exact location of tripping area. Check out the lines that can be tripped. Certain instruments are there to check the flow and units of electricity. During the repair period the electricity is shut down to eliminate and danger or accidents. Before finally restarting the system a test is taken to check the voltage the lines supply.

Interestingly, as soon as the San Diego power outage took place, many though it was part of a terror attack as many warning of security have been issued all over the US prior to 9-11. But soon the officials denyed the reports and assumptions.

Share with us how did you get affected by San Diego power outage and in which area are you located? You can also send in your stories about your activities while the power outage San Diego tool place.

United States Postal Service Crisis Makes Developing Countries Wonder

September 7, 2011

News Worldwide – United States recent financial crisis of Postal Service has a threat of closure. This possible closure threat has panicked many inhabitants of Desert. According to locals, the daily mail is living for them.
Many old citizens find it the only mean of living. One of them is Blaine – who has been making a trip to post office on daily basis since last sixty years of his life. It is reported that the United States Post Office has faced a projected 9 billion dollars deficit.

This Postal Crisis of United States has made several developing countries like Pakistan and other wonder. It has been a kind of ironic fact that Pakistan’s postal service is facing a deficit since long. And with this new development of US being part of this deficit and possible closure in some areas is certainly a wondering fact.

On Tuesday the Postmaster General went before Congress to find a solution. “Mister Chairman, the Postal Service requires radical changes to its business model if it is to remain viable in the future,” said Patrick Donahoe. “The Postal Service is in a crisis today because it operates with a restrictive business model.”

According to new plan Donahoe will close 3,700 post offices, release 120,000 employers and stop delivering mail on Saturday. And this is not it. These are just a few of the proposed alterations.

These changes are not going to effect the seniors only but many other that depend on post services will also be part of this.
There are some reports that state that the use of technology including use of emails, smart phones and other are somehow responsible for Postal Service giving such a large deficit.

Why the date was 9/11 when World Trade Center was attacked? – A religious connection or an emergency number

September 6, 2011

Was it actually Quran giving hints of 9/11 attacks or US emergency number?

News worldwide – Why the date was 9/11 when world trade center was attacked? Many would call it coincidence while other have been calling it a hint from Al Qaeda for September 11 attacks.

For planning such attacks, the planning would have been phenomenal. Al-Qaeda would have reviewed each and every step hundreds of time. And then finally, the date would have been chosen, which today is memorized in every mind of American – The September 11 attacks. It was not merely fall of twin towers but it was a great, horrifying message.

So, was the date 9/11 selected just like that or did it involve some hints and clues to Al-Qaeda ideology too? Here is some shocking revelation I found on internet that says that the Holy Book Quran’s chapter 9 and verse 11 gives hint of September 11 attacks. The Chapter and verse 9:11 are quoted as this on several online sites:

Koran 9-11 stats: “For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome eagle.”

Many online sites have referred Son of Arabia as Osama bin Laden while fearsome eagle has been associated with the planes that brought down world trade center.

But, this is wrong. The chapter 9 of Holy Quran is named “Al-Taubah” and the verse 9 of this chapter states:

“But if they repent and observe Prayer and pay the Zakat, then they are your brethren in faith. And We explain the Signs for a people who have knowledge.”

Their no mention or even hint of what has been associated with the holy book Quran.

Moreover; even if we check the chapter 11 which is “Hud” and verse 9 of Holy Quran, it states:

“And if We put off their punishment until a reckoned time, they would certainly say, ‘What withholds it?’ Now surely, on the day that it shall come unto them, it shall not be averted from them, and that which they used to mock at shall encompass them.”

In this chapter and verse we still did not find any clue or association of 9/11 attacks. But what makes it more interesting is the fact that it is not Quran that is actually giving clues of 9-11 attacks but rather the United States emergency number 911 itself.

So, one may wonder if the assumptions connected with CIA being involved in 9/11 attacks is correct or was Al Qaeda giving a clue to secret agencies for such a big devastation. Certainly, saying that Al Qaeda was giving clue is wrong but CIA using it as an emergency thing sounds a closer thing. Does this mean that all the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and all the people who died in suicide bombing were actually plated to implement the new world order?

Lee’s fragments fetch floods, feeds fires

September 6, 2011

News worldwide – Lee sustained to wet the South, beginning comparatively slight flooding and power breakdowns in straight and flat areas.
Lee also was an issue in additional sort of epidemic that is wildfire. Many of similar blazes brushed across drought-stricken Texas, making Gov. Rick Perry to leave the presidential campaign track in South Carolina and go back home.


The fires comprised a fast-moving one in East Texas. On Monday, the fires in Gladewater killed a woman and her 18-month-old daughter before being extinguished.

Another wildfire in central Texas demolished almost 500 houses forcing approximately 5,000 people from their homes in Bastrop County, about 25 miles east of Austin.

Almost 20 houses were lost in the west of Austin in Travis County and 30 more were damaged in another fire. Under mandatory evacuation 1,000 houses were evacuated while 25 homes were lost in a third fire also in the Austin area.
The fire’s speed and wildness made it dangerous to extinguish from the ground, the Texas Forest Service said. Texas is anguishing one of the worst droughts in more than half a century while the wildfire threat has been worsened by prevailing wind gusts cast off by Lee, hundreds of miles to the east.

The 1st direct victim was claimed by Lee when a man in northeastern Mississippi drowned after being swept away by floods. On Sunday night John Anderson Jr., 57, of Corinth drowned when he and 2 others tried to cross water in a car. They were gotten out and were being rescued when Anderson was swept away.
