"The Tide of War Is Receding"

Obama’s Shadow Wars
2/27/12 http://www.foreignpolicy.com/war_issue
War, as Clausewitz so memorably put it, is the continuation of politics by other means. Strikingly, the United States under its Nobel Peace Prize-winning president has been pursuing war itself by other means over the last few years, a campaign that has blurred the lines of legality and lethality, technology and weaponry, as it spread from Afghanistan across an ever-widening swath of the planet. Which is why we’ve devoted our third annual War Issue, to the question of Barack Obama's Secret Wars. From drones that rain death down on Pakistan’s tribal areas to the collateral damage of “war on terror”...we may look back on the Obama years as a definitive chapter in the spread of this new way of war...

"When a little boy is kidnapped, turned into a child soldier, forced to kill or be killed - that's slavery, It is barbaric, it is evil, and it has no place in a civilized world. Now, as a nation, we've long rejected such cruelty"

Plan for hunting terrorists signals U.S. intends to keep adding names to kill lists
http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/plan-for-hunting-t...

Over the past two years, the Obama administration has been secretly developing a new blueprint for pursuing terrorists, a next-generation targeting list called the “disposition matrix.”
The matrix contains the names of terrorism suspects arrayed against an accounting of the resources being marshaled to track them down, including sealed indictments and clandestine operations. U.S. officials said the database is designed to go beyond existing kill lists, mapping plans for the “disposition” of suspects beyond the reach of American drones...
Privately officials acknowledge the development of the matrix is part of a series of moves to embed counterterrorism tools into U.S. policy for the long haul.

"..He has not been formally indicted and charged in connection with 9/11 because the FBI has no hard evidence connecting bin Laden to 9/11...”
Rex Tom, FBI Director of Investigative Publicity, stated 2006 FBI position:
“The FBI gathers evidence. Once evidence is gathered, it is turned over to the Department of Justice. The Department of Justice then decides whether it has enough evidence to present to a federal grand jury. In the case of the 1998 United States Embassies being bombed, bin Laden has been formally indicted and charged by a grand jury. He has not been formally indicted and charged in connection with 9/11 because the FBI has no hard evidence connecting bin Laden to 9/11.”

Obama: no longer essential to kill Osama bin Laden
1/15/09 http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/article55201...
Barack Obama's comments in a CBS interview last night -- that removing Osama bin Laden from the battlefield was no longer essential that America's security goals could be achieved merely by keeping al-Qaeda "on the run" ..."My preference obviously would be to capture or kill him. But if we have so tightened the noose that he's in a cave somewhere and can't even communicate with his operatives then we will meet our goal of protecting America."... October 7 in a election presidential debate, Mr Obama said: "We will kill bin Laden. We will crush al-Qaeda. That has to be our biggest national security priority." ...

Presidential Election Enters Month of Surprise
9/30/12 NYTimes.com thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/ 2012/ 09/ 30/ now-entering-the-month-of-surprise/
In 2004, Osama bin Laden released a video statement on Oct. 29. Will such a surprise happen again? ...What else could pop up on the world stage in October? More re-evaluations of the terrorist attack that killed the ambassador to Libya? Developments in the Iranian nuclear drama? Dramatic economic collapses in European nations already weakened and teetering? .. there is always the possibility that something happens in October that has no particular relevance to the election, but steals the spotlight...

CIA alleged to have met Bin Laden in July
31 Oct. 2001, by Anthony Sampson, http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2001/nov/01/afghanistan.terrorism
Two months before September 11 Osama bin Laden flew to Dubai for 10 days for treatment at the American hospital...While there he was visited by several members of his familythe CIA. ..also
by Prince Turki al Faisal, head of Saudi intelligence, with long Taliban and Bin Laden links. Soon after Turki resigned, and recently has publicly attacked him in an open letter: "You are a rotten seed, like the son of Noah"....confirmed or not, wider leaks from French secret service throw a worrying light on the rivalries and lack of coordination between intelligence agencies, both within the US and between western allies.

Chavez wins re-election
Associated Press 10/07/2012 http://www.thestate.com/2012/10/07/2471864/venezuela-vote-a-critical-tes...
CARACAS, Venezuela—President Hugo Chavez won re-election Sunday, defeating challenger Henrique Capriles and gaining six more years to cement his legacy...With about 90% of votes counted, Chavez had more than 54% of the vote...the National Electoral Council president said 81% of the nearly 19 million registered voters cast ballots, one of the largest turnouts in years.
Chavez Beats Capriles in Election....
http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/venezuelans-flood-polls-for-historic...
Chavez also argued Capriles would represent the interests of the United States, not the poor, and his government would slash popular social programs, a claim Capriles had to repeatedly deny. The attacks had an impact....Capriles conceded at his campaign headquarters...And asked Chavez, who mocks his foes as oligarchs and lackeys of U.S. imperialism, take the opposition’s needs into account....A largely forgotten topic in recent months that may again become a major issue is the tumor in Chavez’s pelvic region that he said was removed this year. Although he announced that he was cured after months of chemotherapy and radiation therapy, details about his health remain a state secret. The president was clearly slowed by the cancer during the campaign, which served to highlight Capriles’s vigor. The man known as El Comandante to his followers appeared bloated, had to walk gingerly and could not speak to the crowds for hours at a time, as is his custom.

Assassination Nation Fifty Years of US Targeted ‘Kill Lists’: From the Phoenix Program to Predator Drones
By Doug Noble 7/19/12 http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article31925.htm

Digest: A timely distraction and opportunity: as reports of US strategy to dump Assad for US 'transition' to democracy regime' in collaboration with its surrogate Syrian 'opposition' Obama gets an opportunity to preside over uniting the bogus 'partisan opposition' - nationally and internationally against Syria. - the ruling bipartisan state desperate now, must expand and deepen its claas war for world supremacy. Physically disarming the potentially revolutionary international working class - strategically ravaged by the GWOT (semantically deleted and born again as 'the middle class'- necessary since the capitalist class knows its real enemy will ultimately lead the struggle everywhere to uproot its tyranny - despite its 'exceptional american' pacification still.

Digest: Aurora, Colorado 'not terrorist connected' terror. Officials at all levels immediately 'determined' that 'suspect' was not connected with any
terrorist group: such State stories are contradictory - and revealing.
