I was under the impression that Canada and Australia were sovereign countries.

I guess not.

This video shows the heads of both these states reading the same exact statement - word for word - supporting the invasion of Iraq.

Who wrote this thing?

Who distributed it?

Who compelled these obvious puppets to read it?

"THE AMERICANS ARE ENTITLED TO KNOW WHO ROBBED THEM." - HANG 'EM HIGH!

Seven years after 9/11, we witness another, greater and even more enjoyable collapse, that of the American financial pyramid. It took some twenty years in building; its collapse took only a few weeks. Let us cut the hypocritical crap: this was a wonderful show, no ifs, ands or buts. The US stock markets boomed when they bombed Baghdad and Belgrade, they prospered when they robbed Moscow and squeezed sweat from Beijing. When they had it good, they had plenty of money for invading Iraq, threatening Iran and strangling Palestine. In short, when it was good for them, it was bad for us. Let them have a taste of their own medicine!

"They" are not the Americans, and "we" are not the rest of the planet. "They" are a small sliver of the American population, the get-rich-quick crowd from the East Side of Manhattan and similar places. The last twenty years witnessed a great shift of money upwards, to a smaller and smaller pack of greedy beasts. While the majority of Americans lost the ability to send their children to universities, these fat cats bought themselves villas in Florida and houses in Tel Aviv. Worse, they spent their billions buying up the media in order to subvert American democracy and send American soldiers to fight wars in far-away places. A big part of the stolen money was siphoned off to (counterfeit-)Israel, where apartment prices went through the roof and are still rising.

They had it good; they were proud that the financial charts of the US and of the world were drawn up in a small room by Henry Paulson of the Treasury, Ben Bernanke and Alan Greenspan of the Federal Reserve, by Maurice Greenberg of A.I.G. They built their world surrounded by Lehman Brothers, Merrill Lynch, Goldman Sachs, Marc Rich, Michael Milken, Andrew Fastow, George Soros, et al. Their exciting new world of Lexus and Nexus was glorified by Tom Friedman of the New York Times. They gave the Nobel Prize in Economics to Myron Scholes and Robert C. Merton, proud board directors of the now infamous Long Term Capital Management hedge fund that was bailed out by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York to the tune of $3.6 billion. President Bush rewarded them for their unaccountability by releasing them from the burden of taxation. Let them pay now for all the fun they had.

World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), the international consortium for WWW-standards on the Internet has ended up on the child pornography blacklist maintained by the Finnish police. Anyone who tries to access it through at least the Finnish ISP 'DNA' gets an announcement stating that “access to this site has been denied based on the law against distribution of child pornography (1.12.2006/1068)”.

The law on Internet censorship that came into effect in Finland at the end of 2006 gives Finnish police the authority to maintain a blacklist that Finnish ISP:s can use. The law was heavily criticized for only trying to sweep the problems out of sight. The list, maintained by officials, is not controlled by any level of court, is impossible to keep up-to-date, and easily blocks access to fully legitimate sites. The addresses of the blocked sites are not public information, although they can be examined by testing. Among other things, the list contained a memorial website devoted to the Princess of Thailand, and a Finnish site that openly criticizes the blacklist. The possible financial losses due to unfounded blacklistings are not compensated by anyone.

This fresh incident is an addition to the hapless history of the blacklist. W3C, which was founded in 1994, is an international organization with the mission to create shared standards for the world wide web. The site is used as reference material by vocational schools and universities, as well as by IT companies. The censorship of the W3C-website for suspicion of distributing child pornography is absurd in every way, and insults the reputation of one of the most important standardization organizations in the world.

The Pirate Party of Finland considers this further evidence that the blacklist does not work as intended, and as a very concerning symptom of the updating practice. “If the website of a large, well-known and significant organization can end up blocked, is there any reason to believe that some smaller and less known sites doesn’t share its fate? Based on experience so far, none whatsoever”, states the announcer of the party, Kaj Sotala. Blocking the W3C-website shows us that despite promises made by the government, updating of the list is not any more reliable now than what it was before.

The Pirate Party of Finland appeals to the Finnish government to stop wasting valuable public resources with child protection as an excuse. The blacklist does not stop the distribution of child pornography in any way, and children’s rights are a far too valuable thing to be used as a means to collect cheap political points.

We recommend using OpenDNS to bypass any censorship projected by the Finnish government. // Fl0wer.net
