The 'long run' arrives
Exclusive: Vox Day cautions George Bush's socialism won't fix financial crisis
Posted: September 22, 2008

By Vox Day
I was opposed to George W. Bush's presidency from the very start. I have always known he was no conservative and that he bore no allegiance to the Constitution. My very first political column here at WND warned of the likelihood that his administration would attempt to use 9/11 to destroy American liberties, and I warned voters prior to the 2004 election that voting for George W. Bush would make the Republican voter "a willing accomplice in the ongoing bipartisan destruction of your country."

DEBKAfile Exclusive Report
September 18, 2008, 9:50 PM (GMT+02:00)
Russian Navy in action
Israeli military and naval commanders were taken by surprise by Rear Adm. Andrei Baranov's disclosure that 10 Russian warships are already anchored at the Syrian port of Tartus, DEBKAfile’s military sources report.
Moscow and Damascus have worked fast to put in place the agreement reached in Moscow on Sept. 12 by Russian navy commander, Adm. Vladimir Wysotsky and Syrian naval commander Gen. Taleb al-Barri to provide the Russian fleet with a long-term base at Syrian ports. Israel was not aware that this many vessels were involved in the deal.
What most worries Israeli military leaders is an earlier announcement by Adm. Wysotsky that Russia’s Mediterranean assets would subjected to its Black Sea fleet command, thereby placing Russia’s warships near Israel’s shores at the service of Moscow’s contest against the US and NATO in the Caucasian. It is feared that Israel will be dragged into another cold war.
Rear Adm. Baranov disclosed that the warships in Tartus had brought engineering crews to widen and dredge the harbor to accommodate additional, fleet vessels. The crews were also working on expanding Latakia, another Syrian port, possibly for aircraft carriers or guided missile cruisers.
The Russians are making no secret of their intention of using their naval presence in Syrian ports as a deterrent to a possible Israeli air strike against Syria.

YouTube bans knife and gun videos
YouTube has moved to stem growing concern that its website glamourises violence by banning videos featuring weapons.
The Google-owned video-sharing site has decided to introduce the ban for the UK only amid widespread unease about the increase in knife crime in the country.
It says that any video which is clearly "showing weapons with the aim of intimidation" will be taken down from the site.

HOW TO GET RID OF ALL OUR PRISONS
by Harry Gorman
As our economy and moral values go from bad to worse
The only thing that's sure to grow is our 'criminal curse'
Rapists, killers, thugs and thieves -- all candidates for Hell
Can only be removed by us to a costly prison cell
The prisons that are standing now are bursting at the seams
Building costly new ones is just adding useless schemes
To "rehabilitate" this social trash who spit upon our laws
Is a futile "social enterprise" that's full of fatal flaws
40,000 bucks it costs to house and feed this scum
I think I've found a better way to process every bum
Make a deal with Turkey, Bangladesh, Peru or Singapore
For half the price in Yankee bucks they'll take them all - and more
House them in their jolly jails -- full terms, with no parole
And work their asses to the bone, until we've reached our goal
If you choose crime as your career and prey on honest folk
I don't care what shaped your life; your actions are no joke
You do the crime, you'll do the time -- not in lavish jails
But, in a foreign prison, where food tastes more like nails
* * * * *
No country can survive the foolish bleeding heart
Who coddles hardened criminals, tearing us apart.
........................................................................................................................................................................
IN THE SOUTH TEXAS AREA WHERE I LIVE ITS STILL CHAOS AND MOST PEOPLE NEVER TOOK ANYTHING SERIOUS FROM DAY ONE.
I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO PREPARE MY READERS FOR YEARS AND TELLING THEM WE ARE GOING TO IMPLODE FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER AND WHETHER ITS THE STORMS OR WHAT EVER YOU HAD BEST TAKE MY ADVICE SERIOUS BUT VERY FEW HAVE EVEN LISTENED TO ME.
AS YOU CAN SEE IF ITS NOT THE WEATHER ITS OUR FINANCIAL PROBLEMS AND OUR MILITARY CONFRONTATIONS AND THE LIST IS ENDLESS. I HAVE SAID THIS ALL BEFORE FOR MANY YEARS AND I AM EVEN HELPING POOR PEOPLE NOW THAT I DO NOT EVEN KNOW BECAUSE THEY HAVE NOTHING AND THEIR POWER IS STILL OUT.
THIS IS NOTHING COMPARED TO WHAT IS COMING FROM G-D'S WRATH TO THIS WORLD AS WE HAVE A VERY ANGRY G-D AND HE IS RIGHT. THERE IS AN OLD STORY THAT SAYS IF YOU WANT TO DANCE YOU MUST PAY THE FIDDLER, AND IF YOU DO NOT PAY HIM NOW YOU WILL PAY THE FIDDLER EVENTUALLY BUT YOU WILL PAY HIM. IT SOUNDS BETTER IN HEBREW.
I HAVE ALWAYS TOLD YOU TO HAVE EXTRA WATER AND FOOD AND AMMUNITION AND MEDICAL SUPPLIES AND WHAT EVER YOU NEED IN ORDER TO SURVIVE BECAUSE YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RELY ON THE GOVERNMENT FOR IMMEDIATE HELP, DO YOU BELIEVE ME NOW ? WHEN YOU ARE POOR - NO ONE CARES, I WILL HELP PEOPLE IF I CAN IN MY AREA BUT I LIVE ON A FIXED INCOME. I DO NOT CONSIDER EVEN TRYING TO HELP THE KNOW IT ALLS.
YOU MUST START TO PREPARE FOR THE NEXT MAJOR HIT ON AMERICA REGARDLESS OF WHAT THE NATURE IS, BE IT ANOTHER STORM OR WHATEVER. THE WORST HURRICANES SEEM TO HAPPEN IN OCTOBER TOWARD THE END OF THE SEASON. I PERSONALLY BELIEVE THIS IS PRE ORDAINED BY G-D TO TEACH US A LESSON AND IT WILL EVENTUALLY MAKE US A NON PLAYER IN WORLD POWER AS WE CAN NO LONGER JUST BE THE POLICEMEN OF THE WORLD AND WRITE CHECKS TO EVERYONE THAT HATES US.
I BELIEVE THAT G-D IS NO LONGER ON OUR SIDE AS WE HAVE NOT WON A MAJOR WAR SINCE 1945. WE NO LONGER CONTROL THE SEA GATES WORLD WIDE. WE HAVE ABOUT 1.4 MILLION IN OUR MILITARY AND CHINA ALONE HAS 200 MILLION. WE ARE UNDERGOING THE SAME SCENARIO OF THE TOWER OF 'BABEL' - ONLY THIS TIME G-D HAS NOT CHANGED OUR LANGUAGE BUT HE HAS ELECTED TO STOP ALL COMMUNICATION BETWEEN OUR LEADERS WHICH SUFFER FROM HUMAN GREED OR STUPIDITY.
THE UK IS FINISHED AS A SUPER POWER AND THE ONE TO WATCH IS 'GERMANY'...THIS IS WHAT I SEE BUT NONE OF THIS HELPS ANY OF US AS WE HAVE NO SAY IN ANYTHING. WE CAN NOT EVEN GET OUR ELECTRICITY RESTORED IN THIS CITY OF HOUSTON 100%........
YOU MUST START TO GET SURVIVAL SUPPLIES FOR THE NEXT TIME AS THIS WAS JUST A WAKE UP CALL. CAN YOU IMAGINE WHAT AN 'EMP' ATTACK ON US WOULD DO ??...WE WOULD BE LIVING BACK IN THE 1890'S
WHEN I WAS A KID IN BROOKLYN, WE HAD NOTHING, NO AIR CONDITIONING, NO TV, NO ELECTRONICS OF ANY KIND, YOU WERE LUCKY IF YOU HAD A PHONE. IF NOT YOU HAD TO WALK AT LEAST 4 BLOCKS LOOKING FOR A PAY PHONE THAT WORKED. BELIEVE IT OR NOT I HAD A BETTER LIFE, IT WAS SIMPLE AND I WALKED MOST EVERY WHERE.
CONTINUED;
I AM SINCERELY URGING ALL OF YOU TO REALIZE THAT THIS COUNTRY IS BROKE, WE ARE FACING A FINANCIAL MELTDOWN NEVER BEFORE SEEN IN THIS COUNTRY AND THERE IS NO WAY OUT. YOU JUST CAN NOT KEEP WRITING CHECKS AND CREATING MORE GIVE AWAY PROGRAMS, ITS OVER.
THESE CANDIDATES ARE PROMISING FREE MEDICAL CARE FOR 300 MILLION PEOPLE, IT CAN NOT BE DONE, THIS COUNTRY IS NOW IN FINANCIAL RUIN. OBAMA WANTS TO GIVE SOME OUT RAGES AMOUNT OF MONEY LIKE 850 BILLION TO THE UNITED NATIONS FOR WORLD WIDE POVERTY, THIS IS INSANITY, IT CAN NOT BE DONE.
DO YOU REALLY THINK THERE IS GOLD IN FORT KNOX , I RATHER DOUBT IT, MAYBE IT WAS TRANSFERRED TO THE IMF IN BELGIUM. THEY ARE JUST PRINTING WORTHLESS PAPER MONEY. I DO NOT HAVE THE EDUCATION THAT MOST OF YOU HAVE BUT NOT MUCH GETS BY ME. I WEAR GLASSES TO HELP ME SEE CLEARER , NOT BECAUSE I AM STUPID.
REMEMBER EACH BILLION IS A 1000 MILLION.
PLEASE NAME ME ONE ISLAMIC NATION THAT HAS A DEMOCRATIC FORM OF GOVERNMENT, THERE ARE NONE, ITS ALL BS. ITS ALWAYS BEEN ABOUT OIL AND POWER AND MONEY. THIS PROBLEM IN THE CASPIAN SEA IS ALL ABOUT CASPIAN SEA OIL WITH OVERLAND PIPE LINES.
MY FRIEND HARRY GORMAN IS 93 YEARS OLD AND HE IS SHARP AS A TACK AND HE WRITES COMMENTARIES AND I AM GOING TO START POSTING THEM UP HERE. HE IS ONE SMART COOKIE. GO TO WWW.COMMENTSBYT.BLOGSPOT.COM
MY FRIEND STACEY DEAN IS A WORLD CLASS ASTROLOGER AND HER WEBSITE IS WWW.STACEYDEAN.ORG
STACEY DOES ASTROLOGICAL CHARTS ON PEOPLE TO TELL THEM WHAT THEIR FUTURE HOLDS AND HER PHONE NUMBER IS ON HER WEBSITE. SHE CAN TELL YOU THINGS ABOUT YOU AND YOUR FAMILY THAT WILL SHOCK YOU AND HER PRICES ARE VERY REASONABLE. STACEY IS WORLD CLASS.
SADLY WE CAN NOT RECOVER THAT EASILY FROM OUR PRESENT SITUATION, WE HAVE ALREADY PASSED THE POINT OF NO RETURN.
I WANT TO TELL YOU A STORY, IN 1957 I TOOK A PLANE FROM MIAMI TO NEW YORK CITY WHERE I LIVED. MY FATHER WAS WORKING IN MIAMI AND I SPENT A WEEK WITH HIM BUT I HAD TO RETURN TO MY HOME IN BROOKLYN, NEW YORK. I WAS VERY YOUNG MAYBE ABOUT 16 YEARS OLD AND HE TOOK ME TO THE AIRPORT IN MIAMI.
A PLANE TICKET COST ME ABOUT 38 DOLLARS OR SO ONE WAY TO NEW YORK, IT WAS A FOUR ENGINE PROP PLANE AND IT HAD ABOUT 250 PEOPLE ON BOARD. I SAT ON THE RIGHT SIDE NEAR THE AISLE BEHIND THE RIGHT WING. ABOUT ONE HOUR INTO THE FLIGHT THE ENTIRE PLANE STARTED TO SHAKE AND THE RIGHT WING ENGINE WAS COVERED IN FLAMES.
WE STARTED TO DROP IN ALTITUDE VERY FAST AND PEOPLE WERE SCREAMING AND MANY PULLED OUT THEIR ROSARY BEADS AND STARTED PRAYING. I LOOKED TO MY LEFT OUT THE LEFT SIDE AND THE LEFT WING CAUGHT ON FIRE, SO NOW BOTH ENGINES WERE IN FLAMES ON BOTH WINGS. THE PLANE RATTLED AND SHOOK SO BAD THAT I THOUGHT IT WOULD COME APART.
I JUST SAT THERE LIKE A DUMMY AND SAID NOTHING TO ANYONE. I WAS AT A LOSS FOR WORDS. THE CAPTAINS NAME WAS McCALISTER. I WILL NEVER FORGET THAT. WE DROPPED AT LEAST 5000 FEET IF NOT MORE WE WERE ORIGINALLY ABOVE 30,000 FEET.
IT TOOK HIM A VERY LONG TIME TO FINALLY EXTINGUISH THE FIRES AND WE CAME IN ON TWO ENGINES. MY FATHER AND MY MOTHER WERE GOING CRAZY CALLING THEIR RESPECTIVE AIRPORTS AND GOT NO ANSWERS. MY MOTHER WAS IN BROOKLYN WAITING FOR ME. IT TOOK AT LEAST SIX HOURS TO FINALLY GET TO A NEW YORK AIRPORT.
AFTER I GOT MY LUGGAGE I HAD TO TAKE ABOUT FOUR TRAINS TO BROOKLYN, I WAS ALWAYS ALONE, JUST ME AND G-D.
THE THING I COULD NEVER FIGURE OUT WAS WHY THIS PLANE DID NOT TRY AND LAND AT SOME CLOSER AIRPORT AFTER WE REACHED THE POINT OF NO RETURN.
I HAVE HAD SO MANY NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCES THAT I CAN NOT EXPLAIN AND SOME DAY I WILL WRITE ABOUT WHEN LIGHTNING HIT ME IN KATY, TEXAS IN 1984. I HAD AN 800 LB. AIR CONDITIONER FALL ON ME IN 1959 AND BROKE MY BACK IN 6 PLACES IN FLORIDA AND G-D HAS ALWAYS BEEN WITH ME. THERE IS SO MUCH MORE.
YOU MUST NEVER GIVE UP OR LOSE YOUR FAITH BECAUSE THAT WILL HELP YOU THROUGH WHAT IS ABOUT TO COME. START TO PREPARE NOW, I DO NOT LIKE TO GO INTO DETAILS OF MY LIFE BUT IT MAY BE THE ONLY WAY TO CONVINCE YOU THAT THERE IS A G-D THAT WILL PROTECT US ALL AS LONG AS YOU DO NOT LOSE YOUR FAITH.
THIS IS NOT THE COUNTRY THAT I GREW UP IN. I WENT TO HIGH SCHOOL WITH BARBARA STREISAND AND NEIL DIAMOND, I THINK THEY FORGOT WHERE THEY CAME FROM, I DID NOT. I NEVER DID KNOW EITHER ONE OF THEM, IF YOU WANT TO CHECK THE ALUMNI LIST GO TO WWW.ERASMUSHALL.ORG
I HAVE HAD A LIFE OF EXTREME HARDSHIP AND I DO NOT KNOW WHY, IT IS G-D'S WILL AND I HAVE SURVIVED BECAUSE OF THAT EXTRA SENSE THAT HE INSTILLED IN ME FROM DAY ONE.
CONTINUED SUNDAY - SEPTEMBER 21, 2008
IN A WORLD GONE MAD THERE ARE THINGS THAT I WANT TO WRITE DOWN NOW FOR YOU TO READ. THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES THAT LIVE IN POVERTY ARE USED TO LIVING WITH VERY LITTLE AND STRUGGLING ALL THERE LIVES WHILE THE SELECT FEW LIVE LIKE LORDS. AMERICANS ARE NOT LIKE THAT, MOST COME HOME FROM WORK AND WATCH THE GRASS GROW OR WATCH THE PAINT DRY OR PLAY THEIR COMPUTER GAMES OR WHATEVER OTHER ELECTRONICS THEY ARE INTO.
AMERICA WAS ALWAYS THE LAND OF PLENTY AND IT LOST ITS TOUCH WITH G-D AND REALITY, MOST AMERICANS ARE LIVING IN A FANTASY WORLD THAT TV AND COMPUTERS HAVE CREATED FOR THEM, ITS ALL BS. YOU NEED A FAN, ITS MADE IN CHINA, YOU NEED ASPIRIN ITS MADE IN CHINA, YOU NEED A TOOL ITS MADE IN CHINA, YOU NEED TOOTH PASTE ITS MADE IN CHINA, YOU NEED VITAMINS THEY ARE MADE IN CHINA. THE LIST IS ENDLESS. THIS INCLUDES CLOTHING AND OF COURSE LETS NOT FORGET S&W KNIVES, WE HAVE BEEN SOLD OUT BY THE PEOPLE WE TRUSTED TO RUN THE COUNTRY AND THE CORPORATIONS.
WE ARE ALL GOING TO LOSE, THERE WILL BE NO WINNERS IN THIS FORMER LAND OF PLENTY. WHEN THE ILLEGAL MEXICAN WORKERS REALIZE THAT THE GRAVY TRAIN IS OVER THERE WILL BE A MASS EXODUS BACK TO MEXICO. THEY ARE NOW TALKING ABOUT COMING UP WITH 700 BILLION DOLLARS TO BAIL OUT WALL STREET AND THE BANKS, WELL THIS IS JUST MORE PRINTED WORTHLESS PAPER YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR AND YOUR KIDS AND THEIR KIDS TO PAY BACK. ITS A SCAM.
WHY WOULD YOU WRITE CHECKS EVERY YEAR TO ISLAMIC COUNTRIES THAT HATE YOU SUCH AS EGYPT FOR EXAMPLE AND THAT IS JUST THE TIP OF THE ICE BERG, DO YOU THINK THAT THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD IS GOING TO LIKE YOU BETTER BECAUSE YOU GAVE THEM YOUR MONEY AND YOU PUT YOUR CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN IN MORE DEBT. EVEN HARRY TRUMAN WOULD TURN OVER IN HIS GRAVE.
OUR MILITARY IS BROKEN. I WILL SAY IT AGAIN FOR THOSE THAT NEED CLARIFICATION, OUR MILITARY HAS BEEN BROKEN FOR YEARS BY THE PAST NUMBER OF ADMINISTRATIONS BECAUSE IT IS ALWAYS ALL ABOUT OIL AND POWER AND MONEY. OUR MILITARY VEHICLES ARE LINED UP IN NEED OF REPAIR, WHO IS GOING TO REPAIR THEM AND WITH WHAT MONEY, THEY ARE TOO BUSY GIVING MONEY AWAY TO EVERYONE. WORTHLESS PAPER MONEY WITH NO GOLD TO BACK IT UP.
OUR NAVY IS DOWN TO ABOUT 300 SHIPS AND WHEN REAGAN LEFT OFFICE THERE WERE ABOUT 600 SHIPS AND THE REMAINING 300 ARE PROBABLY IN NEED OF REPAIR AND UPGRADING.
OUR AIR FORCE ARE USING PLANES THAT ARE 30 TO 40 YEARS OLD AND SOME ARE SUFFERING FROM STRUCTURAL STRESS FAILURE WITH WINGS COMING OFF. THESE OLD ENGINES NEED TO BE UPGRADED, WHY NOT SPEND THE MONEY HERE INSTEAD OF GIVING IT TO SOME JERK OFF THIRD WORLD DICTATOR THAT HATES YOUR GUTS.
DURING WORLD WAR II WE HAD A GENERATION OF PEOPLE THAT WERE DEDICATED BEYOND YOUR WILDEST IMAGINATION FOR THE PRESERVATION OF NOT ONLY OUR COUNTRY BUT COUNTLESS DIED TO PROTECT THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES AND DO NOT EVER BELIEVE THAT ITS JUST A PIECE OF PAPER. MY FATHER SPENT 5 SOLID YEARS IN THE BROOKLYN NAVY YARD REPAIRING THESE BATTLE WORN SHIPS AND IN THE SUMMER THEY MADE HIM WORK BELOW DECK IN THE HEAT, AND IN THE WINTER HE HAD TO WORK IN FREEZING TEMPERATURE ABOVE THE DECK.
MY FATHER WAS IN AN ELEVATOR SHAFT IN THE NAVY YARD AND THE CABLE BROKE AND THE CABLE CAR FELL AND HE BROKE BOTH HIS LEGS. IF HE DID NOT HAVE A HELMET ON HE WOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. THAT WAS WHAT SACRIFICES ALL AMERICANS MADE IN WORLD WAR II. THE PEOPLE NOW IN THIS COUNTRY LOSING THEIR ELECTRICAL POWER FOR JUST TWO HOURS GO NUTS. TO SEE THIS COUNTRY SOLD OUT LIKE IT HAS MAKES OLD PEOPLE LIKE ME VERY SICK.
I GO TO A GREAT DEAL OF PAIN AND TROUBLE TO TYPE THESE TYPE OF COMMENTARIES BUT YOU MUST ALL FACE REALITY NOW BEFORE ITS TOO LATE FOR YOUR OWN SURVIVAL. I PERSONALLY BELIEVE THIS COUNTRY AS A WHOLE HAS REACHED THE POINT OF NO RETURN AND OUR ONLY HOPE IS OUR DEITY.
AMMUNITION IS HARD TO COME BY FOR EVEN OUR MILITARY, THEY ARE BUYING SOME 5.56MM FROM ISRAEL WHICH IS BEING KEPT QUIET FOR OBVIOUS REASONS. IT IS VERY GOOD AMMUNITION. THEY ARE ALSO BUYING AMMO FROM TAIWAN IF I REMEMBER RIGHT. ITS VERY HARD AT MY AGE TO KEEP UP WITH SO MUCH, I HAVE A GREAT DEAL ON MY PLATE. YEARS AGO THERE WERE HEADLINE STORIES THAT AMERICAN SOLDIERS HAD FIRED 250,000 ROUNDS FOR EVERY ENEMY KILLED.
THERE IS NO WAY TO INSTILL CONFIDENCE IN A FIGHTING SOLDIER IF HE SUSPECTS HE MAY BE COURT MARTIALED FOR KILLING A PERSON THAT HE OR SHE CONSTITUTES AN ENEMY COMBATANT. WE SADLY DO NOT SUPPORT OUR TROOPS LIKE WE DID IN WORLD WAR II. I AM OF THE OPINION THAT G-D IS PUNISHING THIS NATION AND YOU HAVE NOT SEEN ANYTHING YET. WE HAVE ALREADY REACHED THE POINT OF NO RETURN, YOU MUST HAVE GALLONS OF WATER PUT ASIDE, YOU MUST HAVE A CAMPING AND HIKING WATER FILTER WITH AN EXTRA CARTRIDGE. YOU MUST HAVE CANNED FOOD.
BE SURE YOU HAVE PET FOOD. YOU NEED RADIOS OF ALL KINDS ALONG WITH BATTERIES AND WHEN YOU THINK YOU HAVE ENOUGH GO BUY SOME MORE AND TELL NO ONE, REPEAT - TELL NO ONE YOUR BUSINESS. I AM TRYING TO KEEP YOU ALIVE. DO NOT BE FOOLISH ENOUGH TO POST WHAT YOU OWN ON FORUMS TO BRAG ABOUT ANYTHING. I JUST ORDERED A BATTERY OPERATED FAN FOR THE NEXT ORDEAL.
THE VERY BEST WAY TO LIGHT YOUR HOUSE USING BATTERIES IS TO BUY FLUORESCENT LANTERNS. OF COURSE THEY ARE MADE IN CHINA BUT AT THIS POINT WE HAVE NO CHOICE. IF YOU THINK YOU NEED TWO BUY FOUR, THINK LIKE THAT. YOU CAN ALWAYS BARTER FOR FOOD. WE HAVE LOST THE SOUL OF WHAT AMERICA IS AND WAS ALL ABOUT BY IRRESPONSIBLE CORRUPT PEOPLE. YOU MUST WALK WITH G-D.
TO BE CONTINUED.

US FINANCIAL CRISIS
'The World As We Know It Is Going Down'
By Marc Pitzke in New York
Panic is the word of the hour on Wall Street. Now even Morgan Stanley is fighting for survival. The commercial bank Wachovia and China's Bank Citic are being discussed as possible rescuers. The crisis has led President Bush to cancel a trip.

Pakistani Taliban claims huge explosion killing at least 60, injuring 200 at Islamabad hotel
Huge explosion by suicide bomber kills at least 40 at Islamabad hotel
DEBKAfile Special Report
September 20, 2008, 6:58 PM (GMT+02:00)
Islamabad Marriott Hotel victim of horrendous terror attack
The five-star Marriott Hotel in the Pakistan capital is burning down.
A large truck carrying tons of explosives detonated at the hotel gate killing at least 40 people and causing horrific damage to the large hotel, which is favored by foreigners and the choice of US officials. Many people are trapped inside. The bomb driven by a suicide bomber left a huge crater and destroyed cars and neighboring buildings
According to some sources, a group of CIA officers just arrived in Islamabad may have been the target of the attack. Adm. Michael Mullen, chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff was quoted by the LA Times Saturday as reporting that US military advisers would arrive in Islamabad within weeks to train the Pakistan army in counterinsurgency warfare courses.
A few hours earlier, new Pakistan president Asif Ali Zardari pledged to fight terrorism in his first address to parliament. While the ongoing military campaign against fighters in the tribal region is unpopular, Zardari was applauded when he declared Pakistan would not tolerate violation of its sovereignty by “any power” – a reference to the recent US cross-border raids and missile attacks against al Qaeda and Taliban sanctuaries in Pakistani tribal lands.
In the North Waziristan, at least eight Pakistani soldiers were killed in a suicide attack on their military convoy Saturday.
A large number of Arab and Central Asian fighters linked to al Qaeda are reported to be hiding near the town of Mir Ali, the site of Saturday's attack.
כה אַל-תִּירָא, מִפַּחַד פִּתְאֹם; וּמִשֹּׁאַת רְשָׁעִים, כִּי תָבֹא. 25 Be not afraid of sudden terror, neither of the destruction of the wicked, when it cometh;

Olmert to formally present resignation to president Sunday night
DEBKAfile Exclusive Analysis
September 21, 2008, 1:57 PM (GMT+02:00)
Ehud Barak gets together with opposition leader Netanyahu to outmaneuver Livni
The outgoing prime minister Ehud Olmert formally will notify the president of his resignation Sunday night. The current tendency is for an early election rather than a new government. Olmert stays on as caretaker until a new government is formed.
DEBKAfile’s political sources report that Labor’s leader, defense minister Ehud Barak and opposition leader, Likud’s Binyamin Netanyahu met Saturday night in Tel Aviv to discuss their tactics for the new Kadima leader Tzipi Livni’s bid to take over the government from outgoing prime minister Ehud Olmert.
They are believed to be moving ahead on their plan, revealed first by DEBKA file on Sept 17 (to read this article click HERE|http://www.debka.com/headline.php?hid=5585}, to rotate the premiership between them and cut the ground from under ruling Kadima. If they finalize their plan, they will ask the president to accept their alternative bid to head a new government. The ultra-religious Shas is in on the plan.
Without Labor, Livni lacks the numbers for a viable government. Barak has said he wants changes in the cabinet makeup and guidelines before agreeing to serve under Livni.
After Barak, Netanyahu and her defeated rival Shaul Mofaz refused to meet her, Livni who was elected Kadima leader by a narrow margin Wednesday, held her first round of negotiations with three fringe party leaders.
The changeover of prime ministers is complicated by president Shimon Peres’ trip to New York Monday, Sept. 22, to speak for Israel at this week’s new UN General Assembly debate beginning Sept. 23. The president has seven clear days to consult with faction leaders before picking the one recommended as best able to form a coalition government commanding 61 (out of 120 Knesset Members).
The chosen one will then begin formal negotiations with prospective partners.
Most of the coming weeks are taken up with the Jewish High holidays, starting with the New Year on Sept 29 and ending Oct. 22. The incumbent cabinet will therefore stay in place until the process produces a successor to Ehud Olmert or, alternatively, a date for an early election.
Clearly wining Kadima’s primary was the easy part of Livni’s race for the top job.
And she can expect little help from the man she hopes to replace.
