ZIONISTS WRITING THEIR BLESSINGS

Thousands of young Muslims have been gathering in Manchester at an international conference discussing issues of faith and community. So what did they think of the UK's foreign policy?

Passengers on a Manchester-bound flight have described how two men were removed from the plane because other travellers thought they were speaking Arabic. Heath Schofield, a passenger on the flight from Malaga, described it as being a "bit like Chinese whispers". Monarch Airlines said passengers had demanded the men were removed because they were acting suspiciously.

The newspapers and TV news have been full of anti-Islamic rhetoric during the Israel-Lebanon conflict. The theme is always the same, Israel are the good guys, hizbullah most definitely are not.

Well see below what Israel supporters did UNDER DIRECTION FROM THE ISRAELI GOVERNMENT.

The ceasefire in Lebanon was holding by a thread last night after Israel sanctioned a commando raid in the east of the country.

Schools are failing to warn children of the dangers of drugs and alcohol and are not focusing enough attention on the emotional aspects of sex, the education watchdog, Ofsted, said today.

Inspectors also used evidence from 102 other school inspections for the report, which covered issues including school sport, meals and sex education.

UN special envoy Stephen Lewis yesterday accused the G8 countries of betraying Africa by their failure to find the money to fulfil their Gleneagles promise on the treatment, care and prevention of Aids.

The Jewish Chronicle (JC)- a staunchly pro-Israeli newspaper - warned this week of the threat MPACUK would pose if funded to carry out campaigns against MPs who support Israel.

Airline passengers throughout Europe face tougher security measures as part of a seven point anti-terrorism package. The EU is looking to introduce resources and methods for airlines to provide advance information about the passenger by creating a ‘profiling-system’ on those worthy of scrutiny. Critics argue that such measures will only accelerate the drive to building a surveillance infrastructure unparalleled in the free world.

His political approach has become a byword for populism and yesterday President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad endowed it with a hi-tech dimension by launching his own weblog. The hardline Iranian leader's debut on the international blogosphere came in the form of a 2,300-word tract that asked readers to decide if the US and Israel were trying to start a new world war.
