Funny anti-Bush cartoon. Please read. I caught Bush clubbing this week, incognito. Flex those military abs, baby:



More on the American Spying of UN Security Council Members

More on the American request to spy on UN Security Council members. Disgraceful. I'm ashamed of my government. UN launches inquiry into American spying (The Observer):

"The revelations of the spying operation have caused deep embarrassment to the Bush administration at a key point in the sensitive diplomatic negotiations to gain support for a second UN resolution authorising intervention in Iraq....The operation is thought to have been authorised by US National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice, but American intelligence experts told The Observer that a decision of this kind would also have involved Donald Rumsfeld, CIA director George Tenet and NSA chief General Michael Hayden.

President Bush himself would have been informed at one of the daily intelligence briefings held every morning at the White House....The Observer story caused a political furore in Chile, where President Ricardo Lagos demanded an immediate explanation of the spying operation. The Chilean public is extremely sensitive to reports of US 'dirty tricks' after decades of American secret service involvement in the country's internal affairs. In 1973 the CIA supported a coup that toppled the democratically-elected socialist government of Salvador Allende and installed the dictator General Augusto Pinochet."

US Press Slow to React.

I can't say it any better or more clearly than Terry Jones, creator of Monty Python:
