Deserters are Heroes

If Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl was a deserter, then he’s a
hero. Furthermore, he might have been the only sane
American in Afghanistan. That war is not only
unnecessary, it is wrong. Bergdahl’s recognition of
this fact (if that’s what occurred) proves his
sanity. Then again, perhaps he just got tired of
killing and the threat of being killed. Or maybe the
military’s excessively macho culture got to him. If
he did just walk away from his post, it’s clear
something cataclysmic happened in his psyche. It is
not his fault other soldiers may have been killed
searching for him. It is the fault of the government
and its supporters that sent the soldiers into war
in the first place.

Israeli school segregated Ethiopian students » Ethiopian Review

Israeli school segregated Ethiopian students » Ethiopian Review : "The placement of four Ethiopian girls in a separate class from their peers at a Petah Tikva grade school has sparked accusations of segregation on Tuesday morning following a report in Yediot Aharonot. According to ‘Hamerhav’ principal, Rabbi Yeshiyahu Granvich, complete integration of the girls was impossible. The reason being, said municipal workers, was that the students were not observant enough, nor did their families belong to the national-religious movement that the school was founded upon. Among the differences in the daily school life of the girls, a single teacher was responsible to teach them all of their subjects. Worse yet, the four were allotted separate recess hours and were driven to and from school separately. Such action has been labeled by observers as “apartheid.”"

Iraqi weapons 'expert' unmasked as a fraud - Independent Online Edition > Americas : "The Iraqi defector whose claims regarding Saddam Hussein's biological warfare capabilities were central to the US government's case for the 2003 invasion, despite repeated warnings that they were dubious, has been unmasked by a television documentary. The informer, codenamed Curveball was Rafid Ahmed Alwan who, in 1999, turned up at a refugee centre in Germany seeking political asylum. He went on to convince the Pentagon he was a brilliant chemist who had helped develop mobile biological warfare laboratories."
