Remember "sorry"? Here comes "not sorry"!


Die eine Hälfte der USA sagt: "Sorry world!" Die andere Hälfte sagt natürlich: "We're not sorry!"

Abt. Welcome to Hotel Guantanamo


(CBS) Abuse allegations are a core complaint in a habeas corpus petition filed Monday by attorneys for Ibrahim Ahmed Mahmoud al Qosi of Sudan, an alleged paymaster for al Qaeda and accused associate of Osama bin Laden who is one of four men charged with conspiracy to commit war crimes. He alleges interrogators at Guantanamo wrapped prisoners in an Israeli flag, showed them pornographic photos and forced them to be present while others had sex. (...) Al Qosi's lawyers said in their petition that Guantanamo interrogations often took place in an area detainees called the "Hell Room," where pornographic pictures were on display. They said methods included "taunting detainees in sexually humiliating ways, including having sex in detainees' presence or having female interrogators rub their bodies suggestively against detainees." (...) Some of al Qosi's complaints echoed others, including that detainees were left in a room with the air conditioner on maximum and "the constant pounding of deafening music." Cases in the congressional report included a female interrogator who climbed onto a detainee's lap and ran her fingers through his hair, and another detainee whose knees were bruised from being forced to kneel repeatedly.
Nebengeleis, aber trotzdem: Wer hier über die Gefangenenmisshandlungen berichtet ist immerhin CBS, eines der drei grossen TV-Networks in den USA.

Abt. Hunde, wollt ihr ewig leben?


vorher: "(CBS) Insurgents await U.S. Marines on a street corner in Falluja November 8, 2004."

nachher: "(<a href=story.news.yahoo.com target=_blank>news.yahoo.com) A U.S. Marine uses his foot to search for ammunition near the bodies of dead Iraqi fighters in the center of Fallujah, Iraq, Nov. 12, 2004."

Fallujah, dieser Tage. Foto: oben Reuters, unten AP; "vorher, nachher" ist sinnbildlich gemeint. Die Personen auf den Fotos sind wohl kaum identisch. Nach US-Angaben ist der Stand derzeit: 1000 tote Rebellen, 24 tote GIs, über 200 (<a href=www.estripes.com target=_blank>Pentagon) bis 400 (AP) verwundete Amis. Al Jazeera meldet 14.11. 07.37: "The announcement of the end of the military offensive is proof that American forces are in an impasse ... the American criminals and the Iraqi apostates have suffered more than 150 killed and more than 270 wounded," said Abu Saad al-Dlimi, spokesman of the Shura (consultative) Council of the Muhajidin in Falluja.

Abt. Märchenhaft!


Irgendwie haben ein paar Filmleute das Geld zusammengekriegt, um eine "Lord of the Ring" Parodie drehen zu können: "The Ring Thing"...

Inhalt (dem sagt man halt so...): Shit happens. Eigentlich wollte Fredi für seinen Hochzeitsantrag üben. Statt dessen stürzt er mitsamt Ring aus einer Flugzeugtoilette direkt in die Alpen – und findet sich in einem verrückten Märchenreich. Mittelerde ist… mitten in der Schweiz! Dummerweise wird Fredi hier für den Hobbit Friedo gehalten und von ein paar total schrägen Märchenfiguren in eine wilde Odyssee hereingezogen, um die Welt vor dem fiesen Zauberer Lord Sauraus zu retten. Dabei will er doch nur seinen Ring zurück – und endlich nach Hause!
