DEFINITION OF GLOBALIZATION
Question: What is the truest definition of Globalization?
Answer: Princess Diana's death.
Question: How come?
Answer: An English princess with an Egyptian boyfriend crashes in a
French tunnel, driving a German car with a Dutch engine, driven by
a Belgian who was drunk on Scottish whiskey, followed closely by
Italian Paparazzi, on Japanese motorcycles, treated by an American
doctor, using Brazilian medicines!And this is sent to you by an
American, using Bill Gates' technology Which he enjoyed stealing
from the Japanese. And you are probably reading this on one of the
IBM clones that use Taiwanese-made chips, and Korean-made monitors,
assembled by Bangladeshi workers in a Singapore plant, transported
by lorries driven by Indians, hijacked by Indonesians, unloaded by
Sicilian longshoremen, trucked by Mexican illegal aliens, and
finally sold to you.
That, my friend, is Globalization! Finally, an explanation in English

George W Bush: Faith in the White House--DVD
$14.95 Not since the days of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln has
a president put so much stock in his Christian faith and prayer life
for making decisions and leading the United States in its hour of
crisis. According to BBC correspondent Justin Webb: "Nobody spends
more time on his knees than George W. Bush. The Bush administration
hums to the sound of prayer. Prayer meetings take place day and night.
It's not uncommon to see White House functionaries hurrying down
corridors carrying Bibles." This program will examine the
extraordinary faith and prayer life of President George W. Bush, and
how it impacts his personal life and his decisions as the leader of
the free world. See how his faith has been unshakeable in dealing with
the 9/11 terrorist attack, fighting al-Qaeda, ridding Iraq of the
Saddam Hussein regime, rooting out terrorists in Afghanistan, and how
his religious beliefs bring personal peace and clarity in a time of
terrorism and chaos across the world.
DVD includes fantastic bonus features!

*** Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld:
The Secret Sharers
The CIA, the Bush Gang and
the Killing of Frank Olson
by Chris Floyd
[...] http://www.counterpunch.org/floyd0828.html
... What next? Are they going to find about
Reinhard Gehlen, too: the Nazi spy who joined
the CIA and recruited thousands of Hitler's best
and brightest--including Klaus Barbie and a
cadre of SS veterans--to work for the Agency?
Sure, it would look bad, but come on: Gehlen
was championed by Allen Dulles himself--the
founding father of the CIA, the hotshot lawyer
who kept Prescott Bush's name out of the
papers when Pres was caught trading with the
Nazis in 1942. Dulles and those Yale boys knew
what was best--but try explaining that to some
poor schmuck whose father got killed at
Normandy or Auschwitz or some other
godforsaken hole, eh?
As it happened, the "Gehlen Organization"
stayed secret for another 26 years. But in July
1975, Ford had still more worries. A top White
House aide, *** Cheney, sent a memo to
Rumsfeld, warning him about an upcoming
lawsuit. The family of Frank Olson had found
out--through the Congressional
investigations--that he had been secretly
drugged by the CIA not long before he took that
fall from the hotel window. Now they were
suing the government for damages.
The lawsuit could be bad business, Cheney told
Rumsfeld. "It might be necessary to disclose
highly classified national security information"
during the trial. That would include the truth
about Olson: the CIA connection, biochemical
weapons, the mind-control and torture
experiments based on Nazi death-camp
"research," and the Agency fingerprints all over
Olson's last days in New York City. The case
might even reveal the existence of special "CIA
Assassination Manuals," like the one issued in
the year of Olson's death, 1953, stating: "The
most efficient accident, in simple
assassinations, is a fall of 75 feet or more onto
a hard surface. Elevator shafts, stairwells,
unscreened windows and bridges will serve. [In
some cases], it will usually be necessary to
stun or drug the subject before dropping him."
Such revelations had to be avoided at all costs.
Rumsfeld and Cheney urged Ford to make a
settlement before the trial started. To avoid the
courts entirely, they would arrange a private bill
in Congress to give the family some cash. The
deal would be sweetened by private audiences
with both Ford and Colby, apologizing for the
CIA's past "mistakes," and promising "full
disclosure" of all the facts, so the family could
at last find peace.
And so it was done. And it was all a lie...
