Sudan. Khartoum. Dharfour.
Condolence Rice is "trouble shooting" the region at the moment and had scheduled a visit to the refugee camps to monitor conditions there and in particular the conditions of women.

This morning at the press conference held with the President of Sudan and the US secretary for trouble shooting, Sudanese guards "man-handled" [sic] both the western journalists accompanying Miss Rice onboard her USAF jet but also members of her staff.

Miss Rice reboarded her jet, and at about 11h00GMT the schedule went wrong, demands for apologies were made, US network TV smarts from the injury to its dignity, and the women of Dharfour camp became less important.

Sudan has apologised. ... read full story / add a comment

Prime Minister Fouad Siniora of Lebanon, elected to the job since the Valentine's Day crises of 2005 and 4 internationally observed seperate Sunday elections has appointed a member of Hezbolah to the cabinet.

The new government has 15 ministers loyal to Hariri the 2nd, heir and son to Hariri the first and five loyal to a pro-Syria Shi'ite Muslim coalition (just like you always got in Iraq) that includes Hizbollah (one of the many thousands of terrorist groups but sort of rare these days in not being directly connected to the search for WMD and introduction of democracy to Babalon).
The cabinet also has three members loyal to Lahoud (fancy that) and an independent (bless him).

The pro-homosexual writings of Bill White from 1998. Since one can not change their sexual orientation, one must assume Bill White is still homosexual today. What makes this ironic is that Bill White just joined the neo-nazi NSM movement which bars homosexuals. But I guess they are so desperate for members, they'll take queers. Now if Bill White didn't publish so many stories on homosexuality, we wouldn't care. ... read full story / add a comment
