POLITICS-ASIA: Talking Peace, Preparing for War

Posted by Matt in April 15th, 2008

Even though it looks relatively peaceful on the outside, Northeast Asia is in fact the heart of the global military-industrial complex. The armies that confront each other in this region — the United States, Russia, China, Japan, and the two Koreas — are the largest in the world.

WORLD WAR 2 BATAAN DEATH MARCH - PART 1
Go to: www.worldwar2treasure.com if you are interested in high adventure and want to participate in recovering World War 2 treasure. Massive looting as an extension of war is nothing new. The Japanese were serious, sober, and deliberate when they methodically and systematically looted thirteen Asian Countries during World War 2. They took treasure including precious diamonds and other gems, gold bullion, and solid gold Buddha's out of every hiding place. Much of this treasure did not make it back to Japan due to a World War 2 naval blockade of the Philippine islands by the United States, and has been recovered recently in underground hiding places. Widespread and systematic looting took place during World War 2 throughout Europe and Asia. For details, go to: www.worldwar2treasure.com

Experts' Views on The Kamikaze A Swiss comment(from the Tribune de Geneve) of July 9, 1945: "The systematized fighting method called the Special Attack is extremely costly in men and materials, but in its effect it far surpasses that of ordinary aircraft.

Personnel losses of the American Navy alone in the Battle of Okinawa reached 9,000 even according to the announcement of the Nimitz headquarters. The American Navy, having suffered extremely huge loses, was obliged to replace the Third Fleet with the Fifth Fleet. To kill enemy without being killed is...

***For Educational Purposes*** This is the first part of the pleading, in which Verapat argued that Rodmania has to extradite Dr. Hattin under the third Geneva Convention, the first Additional Protocol, as well as under Customary International Law, primarily focusing on the principle of aut dedere aut judicare (a state must either extradite or prosecute).

BBC - In the footsteps of Alexander (Persian Gates) 12
In the footsteps of Alexander the Great In this award winning adventure Micheal Wood embarks on a 2000 mile journey in the foot steps of Alexander's triumphal march from Greece to India. Travelling with Lebanese traders, Iranian pilgrims and Afghan guerillas, by jeep, train, boat, camel and on foot, he interweaves the momentous events of the past with present day reality and brings us new insights into a man whose myth and acheivements still resonate down the centuries "We saw things I can scarcely believe. We took shelter for the night with an Afghan warlord who had delivered pizzas in the United States, and were hauled off to jail more than once. It was one of the great experiences of my life" - Michael Wood Additional Tags: Ahura Mazda Olympian Gods Zeus Hercules Ionian Doric...
