Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu tries to scold the UN for staying silent about rocket attacks fired from Gaza - I wonder why the UN stayed silent… Oh thats right, Israeli aggression far outways that from Gaza.

When you throw a rock at a bulldozer it leaves nothing more than a scratch, when you destroy someones home it ruins their life.

The lies are getting less believable Netanyahu. This speech at the UN is a joke.

I wonder why they never actually get arrested…? Oh thats right, everyone is affraid of wrath of the lobby. Shame.

“LONDON — Lawyers have asked a British court to issue an arrest warrant for Israeli defense chief Ehud Barak, who is in the country to meet with Prime Minister Gordon Brown and other officials.

Tayab Ali, one of several lawyers representing a coalition of Palestinian groups, said papers his group filed in the City of Westminster Magistrates Court accuse the Israeli defense minister of violating the Geneva conventions and committing war crimes while directing the Israeli offensive against the Gaza Strip that began late last year.

“We think anybody suspected of war crimes should be brought to justice,” said Ali, whose brought the case on behalf of a group of civilians and a human rights organization inside Gaza.”

It’s about time Australia followed suit… 

“Madrid: Spain said on Wednesday it disqualified Israeli academics from a solar power design competition because their university is in the West Bank, the latest in a series of low-level European sanctions against Israel over its colony-building policy.

 

Spain expelled a team representing Ariel University Center of Samaria from an international contest called the Solar Decathlon, in which 20 universities are presenting designs for solar-powered homes, a Housing Ministry official said.

 

Spain acted in line with EU policy of opposing Israel’s occupation of Palestinian land, the Spanish official said on condition of anonymity, in line with ministry rules.

 

The contest is sponsored by the US Energy Department, but Spain is hosting a European version of it in 2010 and 2012.”

Israel’s foreign Minister, Avigdor Lieberman, told reporters at the end of his three day visit to Russia that Israel does not intend to bomb Iran.

“We do not intend to bomb Iran, and nobody will solve their problems with our hands,” He said. “We don’t need that. Israel is a strong country, we can protect ourselves.”

“But the world should understand that the Iran’s entrance into the nuclear club would prompt a whole arms race, a crazy race of unconventional weaponry across the Mideast that is a threat to the entire world order, a challenge to the whole international community,” he said, in Russian. “So we do not want a global problem to be solved with our hands.”

Nice try Lieberman, but you’ll have do do better than that if you want to use reverse psychology on the rest of the world.

Over one dozen suspected Al Qaida militants have escaped through ventilation ducts in a Tikrit jail, just North of Baghdad.

Iraqi authorities have imposed a vehicle ban and curfew on the city as some of the prisoners are carrying the death penaltiy for working woith Al Qaida.

In his debut appearance at the United Nations, Libyan leader, Muammar Gaddafi came out swinging as he chastised the UN  for failing to prevent the 65 wars that have occured since it was founded in 1945.

“It should not be called the Security Council, it should be called the “terror council,” he said.

I have to admit - the man has a good point. One word from the US and any plan the UN has gets vetoed.
