“Pro-Zionist Rats”: Venezuelan Media Attack Chavez Opposition - Simon Plosker (Honest Reporting) One of the most disturbing things that occurred when this story broke, was that the CNN scroll reported that Jewish groups were upset by "antisemitic comments" from Venezuela. The quotes seem to indicate CNN can't objectively state that Chavez's supporters are making antisemitic statements.

Turkish missiles over Brussels, Paris, Berlin, Rome (and others) - Burak Bekdil (Hurriyet-Turkey) Much to the pride of millions of Turks, the state scientific research institute, TUBITAK, recently reported that its scientists this year would finish an all-Turkish missile with a range of 1,500 km., and, in 2014, another with a range of 2,500 km. The head of TUBITAK said the order for the missile program had come from Prime Minister Erdogan. Here are some of the cities which may in the future see Turkish missiles over their skies: London, Moscow, Tehran, Tel Aviv, and many others. The move is just another indication that Turkey does not see its future within the NATO and European security structures.
