Nuclear Terrorist Meets Nazi Cult Leader in 'Secret Weapon' Talks
A high ranking advisor to the leader of a middle-eastern Islamic entity recently travelled to a foreign secretive place to meet with the head of a powerful international religious cult.
U.S. services have long connected the advisor to terrorism and nuclear activities, while the second person is known for old relations to fascist currents.
The secret talks were likely held without translators in a third language, possibly German, believed to be common to both of the participants.
We were informed that during the meeting the first person offered some 'mystic documentations' of high value to the second person and that this offer was accepted with grace. (One U.S. paid source doubts the relevance of the meeting and the 'gift', but could present no proof for that assessment.)
Prior reports connected similar meetings involving these persons to the use of a 'secret weapon'.
In the aftermath of the meeting the participants jointly published a pamphlet on religious justification of war on an Internet site.
We assess that the content of this paper will have significant impact on future relations between various cults and on international acts of war.
No major U.S. media have reported on the meeting or on the likely high significance of the published paper.
How can the U.S. be silent on this developing mushroom cloud?
Okay, now the non-Debka version.
There is a ongoing dialog on religion between Iran and the Vatican. Recently the pope met with Mehdi Ahari Mustafani, an advisor to president Ahmedinejad, and a delegation of shiite scholars and received as a gift a copy of the quran.
The meeting was at the end of a conference between high ranking shiite and catholic scholars. A common paper was released which in a few sentences has some far reaching agreements on religion and reason.
Mehdi Ahari Mustafani was Iranian ambassador to Austria and Germany in the 1980s. Since that time the U.S. tries to connect him to the 1979 hostage crisis but has little proof for that assertion. Mustafani speaks German and likely knows Ratzinger, now the pope, from earlier meetings there.
Later Mustafani was promoted to deputy foreign minister of Iran and then acting foreign minister. He had a role in publicly defending Iran's civil nuclear program. Since November he is leading the Iranian Islamic Culture and Relations Organization and acts as advisor to president Ahmedinejahd. It can be assumed that Mustafani has the highest possible endorsements for his negotiations with the Vatican.
The common paper between the catholic church and the leading shiite entity is quite a historic document. While I may not agree with it, it is a very important piece of interfaith development and should be given some thought.
It says:
"Faith and reason are both gifts of God to mankind.
"Faith and reason do not contradict each other, but faith might in some cases be above reason, but never against it.
"Faith and reason are intrinsically non-violent. Neither reason nor faith should be used for violence; unfortunately, both of them have been sometimes misused to perpetrate violence. In any case, these events cannot question either reason or faith.
"Both sides agreed to further co-operate in order to promote genuine religiosity, in particular spirituality, to encourage respect for symbols considered to be sacred and to promote moral values.
"Christians and Muslims should go beyond tolerance, accepting differences, while remaining aware of commonalties and thanking God for them. They are called to mutual respect, thereby condemning derision of religious beliefs.
"Generalisation should be avoided when speaking of religions. Differences of confessions with Christianity and Islam, diversity of historical contexts are important factors to be considered.
"Religious traditions cannot be judged on the basis of a single verse or a passage present in their respective holy Books. A holistic vision as well as an adequate hermeneutical method is necessary for a fair understanding of them".
Remarkable.
And again - why are the U.S. media quiet on this?

thanks again for your wonderful ability to find stories that otherwise go undetected. Reading about Iran's presence at the Vatican suddenly makes it clear why I never hear Iran bashing on Italian TV.
as for this not getting into US corporate media, that is of course too easy. such talk of a Catholic/Muslim conspiracy would not fit with the carefully cultivated image of Iranians as savage beasts intent on murdering innocent Jews and would make the true believers start to wonder if they can trust their Catholic neighbors after all.
Really now, we need to go back and look at all of Reverend Wright's sermons of the last 20 years or so. that will help us choose a president.

"Faith and reason do not contradict each other, but faith might in some cases be above reason, but never against it."
Upon reading this my stomach made a little noise, possibly such as is known as 'turning'

Har-de-har-har. There's a complete explanation of what's wrong with the world in a nutshell. Reason is a gift. Fucking idiots.

McCain Goes Off the Reservation
The Big Guy did his best imitation of Ronald Reagan's Star Wars speech recently,
calling for a national health care voucher system. Let's run the pro-forma.
"Nationally, there were 217.8 million people age 18 and over; 35.9 million people age 65 and over; and 53.3 million children ages 5 to 17 as of July 1, 2003." Ignoring the children, (who are considered chattel in the capitalist federal republican system,) that's about 296.8M adults in America today. The latest economic statistics give the average pre-tax income at $24,812.
John McCain proposes a tax voucher healthcare system which keeps all the existing purveyors at the trough. This dole amounts to $2,500 per adult per year, about 10% of the average pre-tax income, therefore, clearly, a 10% across the board tax increase.
But wait, it gets better!
There are only 142M working Americans, and the median American now has -0.42% savings rate. A 10% health care voucher system for 296M adult Americans on the backs of 142M working Americans would be a tax increase of 20%. But wait! 34% of working Americans don't owe any taxes!! That would mean McCain's health care dole plan amounts to a 30% tax increase for those who owe and can afford to pay federal income taxes.
"But it's competitive!" stammers McCain. Come on. Peak Health Care. Long time ago.
$2,500 per America adult would be a public welfare dole trough some $742B in size.
Basically another new Iraq, every year. It would surpass Bush.Con's explosive growth of government bureaucracy, even more so, because it would piggyback on the already morbidly obese MediCare and MediCaid public healthcare system.
Just when you were counting your Mission Accomplished dividend, now comes Big Health.
The Beast feeds on taxes. The Beast must be fed. The Beast will feed itself deficits.
A Beast that leaves you warehoused, prowling your old neighborhood for your children.
And you thought Republicans were fiscal compassionate conservatives. Ahh,ha,ha,ha,ha.
Welcome to the gulag, comrade! Would you like boiled turnips with your cabbage soup?
"My fellow Americans, tonight we're launching an effort which holds the promise of changing the course of human history. There will be risks, and results take time. But I believe we can do it. As we cross this threshold, I ask for your prayers and your support. Thank you, good night, and God bless you."
Ronald is smiling in his grave tonight.

The news story titled "U.S. Links an Iran Envoy to Terrorism" was indeed alarming. Have you read the article titled "Iran Links U.S. President to Anti-Social Behavior Including Violent Alcoholism, Cocaine Abuse, and Felony Crimes Such As Military Desertion, Illegal Arms Sales, Treason and Mass Murder."
What do you suppose we should do about these things?

The comments to this entry are closed.
The Israelis haven't told their newspapers of record, NY Pravda and Pravda on the Potomac, what to print yet. Their electronic lap dogs haven't been given their instructions yet either. Timmy Russert doesn't know what to do, he is worried about whether Jack Welsh will have him banned from Martha's Vineyard this summer. The rest of them are too busy giving each other oral gratification to worry about it until the news cycle starts this week, but perhaps there will be another missing blonde co-ed in Jamaica.
