Bushco’s war on terrorism is a fraud! Terrorism is exploited for the purpose of waging a perpetual war in Iraq. The U.S. media has all but ignored the construction of permanent super bases in Iraq —all in the name of fighting terror. This multibillion-dollar Pentagon investment comes at a time when the U.S. budget deficit may be beyond correction.The construction raises several issues:it exposes yet another Bush lie. Bush stated in the State of The Union address that U.S. forces would …be drawn down as Iraqi forces stand up. That would seem not to be the case.it points up the criminal nature of the U.S. presence in Iraq. To initiate a war of aggression is, therefore, not only an international crime; it is the supreme international crime, differing from other war crimes only in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole.

-ne Thursday, February 02, 2006The Daya Nayak story - Ketan Tirodkar, Cops and the Underworld Even as I write this, I am aware that today, in all probability, suspended sub-inspector of the Mumbai police, Daya Nayak, will be arrested under a non-bailable warrant, as soon as his anticipatory bail is rejected by the sessions court; The two started meeting up and slowly became friends, giving Tirodkar ample opportunity to find out how Nayak lived, who his friends were and other such information which would later turn vital in his destruction.In 2001, Tirodkar made his first move by filing a case against Nayak in the Central Vigilance Committee [CVC] which led to an enquiry into the finances of the Radha Nayak High School which Daya Nayak had helped to build in his village Yennehole, Karnataka. In Nov 2003, Tirodkar made a confession in front of Justice Bhangale in the MCOCA court with ACP Shankar Kamble present and filed a private complaint against Nayak, alleging him of being in a nexus with Chhota Shakeel, and receiving Rs. The presence of Tirodkar at these raids, as directed by the court, was additionally humiliating for Nayak. ACP Shankar Kamble was given unprecedented sweeping powers for conducting the enquiry against Nayak.In Dec 2003, Daya Nayak moved the High court, challenging the authority of the MCOCA court in this case. The application for bail cancellation has never come up for hearing since.In October 2005, ACP Dilip Sawant [who took over from ACP Shankar Kamble, the one Tirodkar originally confessed to, after he retired] submitted another report to the ACB exonerating Daya Nayak of any links with the underworld, but suspected him of having assets more than his known sources of income. In front of the MCOCA court, he re-iterated his charges of Daya Nayak taking money from the underworld and possessing disproportionate assets. Vikas Gaikwad of the ACB, [rumoured to be a Shakeel man himself] heading the investigation against Nayak, gave interviews and spoke about Nayak owning a flat in Switzerland, a hotel with a swanky disco in Dubai, a fleet of luxury buses, multiple benami properties in Mumbai, Karanataka, Goa… Sarwade even wanted to accuse Nayak and Manivellan of murdering Manivellan’s elder brother [who is alive and well, but is an NRI] in order to seize his company as a front for Nayak. I’ve said this before and I’ll say this again - this man, Daya Nayak, was a man who did his job really well.

I’m sure President Bush superceeding the authority of a black democratic mayor and a female democratic governor by sending ten thousand Virginia farm boys carrying automatic rifles to drag Big Mama Lickabooboo out of her home while she screams âYou cainât take mah houseâ into every news camera within 100 miles would have appeased the leftists among us….ABC, NBC, CBS and the New York Times would have given him a pass, right (you know, for the good of the people….)?Emboldened by their unwavering sense of moral superiority, the Eurofags and their ass-buddies in American liberal intelligentsia have all screeched down from their Ivory Towers about how the Federal Government (or Feddie Gov if you are from the hood) failed the people of New Orleans. Iâd say the people of New Orleans failed themselves. The fact is that the poverty stricken people of New Orleans lived in government housing, received Government food subsidies, and government welfare checks. Because the government always uses proper accounting and poor people are noble, wise, and judicious with their spending, why wouldnât one just shovel loads of cash into the region and give the people endless support?After all, its not like people would use federal handouts to buy sex toys, alcohol, firearms, lap dances, or pay off an outstanding bail bond… Black leaders all levied criticism against Bush concerning the income disparity between blacks and whites in New Orleans.

-ne Thursday, February 02, 2006The Daya Nayak story - Ketan Tirodkar, Cops and the Underworld Even as I write this, I am aware that today, in all probability, suspended sub-inspector of the Mumbai police, Daya Nayak, will be arrested under a non-bailable warrant, as soon as his anticipatory bail is rejected by the sessions court; The two started meeting up and slowly became friends, giving Tirodkar ample opportunity to find out how Nayak lived, who his friends were and other such information which would later turn vital in his destruction.In 2001, Tirodkar made his first move by filing a case against Nayak in the Central Vigilance Committee [CVC] which led to an enquiry into the finances of the Radha Nayak High School which Daya Nayak had helped to build in his village Yennehole, Karnataka. In Nov 2003, Tirodkar made a confession in front of Justice Bhangale in the MCOCA court with ACP Shankar Kamble present and filed a private complaint against Nayak, alleging him of being in a nexus with Chhota Shakeel, and receiving Rs. The presence of Tirodkar at these raids, as directed by the court, was additionally humiliating for Nayak. ACP Shankar Kamble was given unprecedented sweeping powers for conducting the enquiry against Nayak.In Dec 2003, Daya Nayak moved the High court, challenging the authority of the MCOCA court in this case. The application for bail cancellation has never come up for hearing since.In October 2005, ACP Dilip Sawant [who took over from ACP Shankar Kamble, the one Tirodkar originally confessed to, after he retired] submitted another report to the ACB exonerating Daya Nayak of any links with the underworld, but suspected him of having assets more than his known sources of income. In front of the MCOCA court, he re-iterated his charges of Daya Nayak taking money from the underworld and possessing disproportionate assets. Vikas Gaikwad of the ACB, [rumoured to be a Shakeel man himself] heading the investigation against Nayak, gave interviews and spoke about Nayak owning a flat in Switzerland, a hotel with a swanky disco in Dubai, a fleet of luxury buses, multiple benami properties in Mumbai, Karanataka, Goa… Sarwade even wanted to accuse Nayak and Manivellan of murdering Manivellan’s elder brother [who is alive and well, but is an NRI] in order to seize his company as a front for Nayak. I’ve said this before and I’ll say this again - this man, Daya Nayak, was a man who did his job really well.

I’m sure President Bush superceeding the authority of a black democratic mayor and a female democratic governor by sending ten thousand Virginia farm boys carrying automatic rifles to drag Big Mama Lickabooboo out of her home while she screams âYou cainât take mah houseâ into every news camera within 100 miles would have appeased the leftists among us….ABC, NBC, CBS and the New York Times would have given him a pass, right (you know, for the good of the people….)?Emboldened by their unwavering sense of moral superiority, the Eurofags and their ass-buddies in American liberal intelligentsia have all screeched down from their Ivory Towers about how the Federal Government (or Feddie Gov if you are from the hood) failed the people of New Orleans. Iâd say the people of New Orleans failed themselves. The fact is that the poverty stricken people of New Orleans lived in government housing, received Government food subsidies, and government welfare checks. Because the government always uses proper accounting and poor people are noble, wise, and judicious with their spending, why wouldnât one just shovel loads of cash into the region and give the people endless support?After all, its not like people would use federal handouts to buy sex toys, alcohol, firearms, lap dances, or pay off an outstanding bail bond… Black leaders all levied criticism against Bush concerning the income disparity between blacks and whites in New Orleans.
