1. The leaderships of the Conservative, Labour and Lib Dem parties have been taken over by pro-Europeans. These leaderships implement the EU's policy, and ignore the wishes of their voters. That's why YOUR VOTE DOESN'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

2. THE EUROPEAN UNION HAS THE CONSTITUTION OF A DICTATORSHIP, and the laws of a police state. Dictatorships lead to oppression and poverty. The EU Constitution is similar to the old Soviet Union's.

3. Once the Queen has signed the sixth and final EU Treaty in June 2008, the very much alive EU CONSTITUTION MAKES IT CLEAR THE EU WILL COMPLETELY ABOLISH THE NATIONS OF BRITAIN AND ENGLAND (and our Lib, Lab and Con parties, clause I-46-4).

4. THE EU IS ILLEGAL UNDER BRITISH LAW. Four Prime Ministers and the Queen have committed five acts of Treason by signing five EU treaties which will abolish our nation and replace it with the EU; THEY HAD TO REPEAL THE LAWS OF TREASON IN THE 1998 CRIME AND DISORDER ACT (S36.3) TO ESCAPE PROSECUTION.

5. The police state growing around you, and reported on by some national newspapers, is the EU police state. WE'VE BEEN IN THE EU FOR 34 YEARS, WE ARE HARMONISING OUR LAWS WITH THE EU, the emerging police state is the result.

6. Political correctness, the undermining of parents, the family and teachers, the teaching of sex and homosexuality to under tens, the promotion of single parent families etc. is subversion by the EU or its Common Purpose organisation over the last 34 years, using the plans of the German Frankfurt School.

7. THE EU WILL BE AN ECONOMIC DISASTER. We now lose £30 billion a year trading with Europe; before we joined we broke even. The EU's 111,000 regulations cost us £100 billion a year (Better Regulation Commission Annual Report 2005); they will bring us a soviet style command economy and poverty. Our politicians lied to us.

8. If you have voted Conservative, Labour or Lib Dem over the last 34 years you have voted for the EU police state, and for the abolition of your own party.

9. German Chancellor Angela Merkel has made our government agree to sign the final "Reform Treaty;" WHICH WILL ENFORCE THE EU CONSTITUTION FROM 1ST JANUARY 2009. The EU constitution makes no allowance for a British General Election, which isn't due until 5th May 2010, so it is unlikely another will be permitted. You will by then be imprisoned inside the EU police state, where you will be ruled by unelected EU dictators, who will control the nuclear weapons of what used to be Britain and France.

10. Britain is the fifth largest economy amongst the world's 200 nations. Forget elections and parties, whose leaderships are controlled by the EU. Fight the direct anti EU campaigns on eutruth to get Britain back before its too late. Start by visiting your MP in his local surgery and warn him he will lose his £240,000 salary and expenses WHEN THE EU CLOSES WESTMINSTER ON 5TH MAY 2010.

According to a report by Omedia, an Iranian organization is demanding that the International Criminal Court take action against those responsible. The Iranian ayatollahs are planning on destroying the tomb as part of a general campaign to sever the Persian people from their non-Islamic heritage; Cyrus was thought to be a Zoroastrian and was one of the first rulers to enforce a policy of religious tolerance on his huge kingdom. Journalist Ran Porat quoted a young Iranian who said that the measures being taken by the Islamic Republic's regime include the destruction of archaeological sites significant to this heritage.

"The government is in the final stages of constructing a dam in southern Iran that will submerge the archaeological sites of Pasargad and Persopolis - the ancient capital of the Persian Empire," the report states. "The site, which is considered exceptional in terms of its archaeological wealth and historical importance, houses the tomb of the Persian King Cyrus."

Cyrus, who lived from 576-530 BCE, liberated Babylonian Jewry from their exile in the famous Declaration of Cyrus (mentioned in the book of Ezra in both Hebrew and Aramaic). Though the city of Pasargad is a ruin, Cyrus's Tomb has remained largely intact and it has been partially restored to counter its natural deterioration over the years.

Cyrus was praised in the Tanach (Isaiah 45:1-6), though he was also criticized for believing the false report of the Cuthites, who wanted to halt the building of the Second Temple. They accused the Jews of conspiring to rebel, so Cyrus in turn stopped the construction of the temple, which would not be completed until 516 BCE, during the reign of Darius the Great, the grandson of Queen Esther.

Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone affirmed this Sunday when he celebrated a day of peace organized in Rome by the military ordinariate of Italy. The cardinal presided over the celebration in the Church of St. Catherine of Siena, and offered the military chaplains the Pope's message for the World Day of Peace. Cardinal Bertone expressed his appreciation for "those who have paid with the price of their lives" in their service to peace, "assuring prayers for their souls and a renewed spiritual closeness to their families."

"In the enormous field of world peace, armed forces have a specific role: to be at the service of peace, as public opinion more and more perceives, and as is shown by so many humanitarian missions," the secretary of state said. He emphasized how "the peace we desire for humanity" is "the peace that we do not tire to beseech with prayer and to build with incessant effort -- the peace that is born above all in ourselves when we manage to snuff out in our hearts the violent fire of hate, envy, egotism and indifference."

Bush's talks with Saudi King Abdullah, which began over dinner and were continuing with late-night meetings, also were expected to cover peace between Israelis and Palestinians and democracy in the Middle East.

Coinciding with Bush's trip, the Bush administration in Washington notified Congress on Monday that it would offer Saudi Arabia the chance to buy sophisticated Joint Direct Attack Munitions - or "smart bomb" - technology and related equipment, the State Department said. The administration envisions the transfer of 900 of the precision-guided bomb kits, worth US$123 million, that would give the kingdom's armed forces highly accurate targeting abilities.

The proposed deal follows notification of five other packages to Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait, bringing to US$11.5 billion the amount of advanced US weaponry, including Patriot missiles, that the administration has announced it will provide to friendly Arab nations, State Department spokesman Sean McCormack said. Administration officials say the total amount of eventual sales as part of the Gulf Security Dialogue is estimated at $20 billion, a figure subject to actual purchases.

Gold surged to an all-time high of $914 an ounce in New York on bets that the authorities will flood the global system with further liquidity to stave off a mounting debt crisis. Fed chair Ben Bernanke prepared the way for drastic cuts with a speech on Thursday saying the authorities were "exceptionally alert" to the risks as the housing slump triggers the first wave of jobs losses. US unemployment jumped from 4.7pc to 5pc in December, the sharpest jump in a quarter century.

Lorenzo Bini-Smaghi, a member of the European Central Bank's executive council, warned that the tumbling dollar may now start to foreclose the option of US rate cuts and force the Fed to keep monetary policy tighter than it would like. "I would not be so sure about the movements of the Fed. There is a serious problem with the dollar in America. We will see what margins they have for further rate cuts," he told Italy's La Repubblica newspaper.

It is the first time that a top central banker has openly aired concerns that dollar weakness could constrain US economic policy. Until now Washington has largely been able to ignore the currency, treating the slide as a headache for the rest of the world. The euro briefly touched $1.49 today, just shy of its all-time high.

US Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson said the administration is rushing to craft a fiscal stimulus package to boost spending. "Time is of the essence," he said. HSBC said the Fed had now raised expectations so far that it risks setting off fresh "financial stresses" if it fails to deliver a serious shot in the arm.

Nationalising Northern Rock could raise the prospect of a legal challenge and years of shareholder claims, Gordon Brown was warned yesterday. Insiders at the bank expressed concerns over whether the Prime Minister's contingency plan to rescue it will pass EU rules governing illegal state aid. Legal experts on European competition law expressed similar fears.

The Government is thought to have an army of lawyers trying to find a way through the minefield. It would have to pass an Act of Parliament in order to take the Rock into Government control. But Stephen Hamilton, competition lawyer at Mills & Reeve, believes it may be able to achieve similar results by forcing the bank into administration. That could be followed by a sell-off of the business and its assets, with any proceeds being returned to the state's coffers.

He added: 'The Government would have to tread very carefully should it decide to take any steps towards nationalisation because an incorrectly managed process could be in breach of European law and could lead to litigation and significant shareholder activism.'

NO EASY SOLUTION BUT PLENTY OF RISK

NATIONALISATION - the compulsory sale to the Government of the bank's shares - would require primary legislation and would hold ministers directly responsible for the company. The biggest headache might be lawsuits from shareholders, but the Treasury believes investors would have no case because owning shares is always risky.

ADMINISTRATION is an alternative that would see a quick "pre-packaged" sale of the business and assets with the proceeds going to meet the debt to the taxpayer. But administration would mean a fire sale of assets and its mortgage book and heavy job losses in the North-East.

They said methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, or MRSA, is beginning to appear outside hospitals in San Francisco, Boston, New York and Los Angeles. "Once this reaches the general population, it will be truly unstoppable," said Binh Diep, a researcher at the University of California, San Francisco who led the study. "That's why we're trying to spread the message of prevention."

According to chemical analyses, bacteria are spreading among the gay communities of San Francisco and Boston, the researchers said. This superbug can cause life-threatening and disfiguring infections and can often only be treated with expensive, intravenous antibiotics. It killed about 19,000 Americans in 2005, most of them in hospitals, according to a report published in October in the Journal of the American Medical Association.

The plans will be unveiled Tuesday by Citigroup's new CEO, Vikram S. Pandit, after the banking giant reports fourth-quarter earnings. At the same time, Citigroup could also announce that it is cutting its dividend payment.
Citigroup is likely to cut between 17,000 and 24,000 positions over the course of the year through a combination of layoffs, attrition and selling off businesses as part of Pandit's cost-cutting plan, sources said. Previously, it was estimated that the layoffs could reach 20,000.

Pandit is looking to avoid taking a charge to earnings that's usually associated with large-scale layoffs, which is one reason he's considering a number of staff-cutting initiatives besides outright firings. It's unclear if he'll announce a specific number of job cuts on Tuesday. A Citigroup spokesman had no immediate comment.

Though he made no overt comments about a bid to become the E.U.'s first president next January, Blair's repeated references to Europe, globalization, and bipartisan efforts to reform and modernize made his aspirations evident. So, too, did Blair's role as guest speaker at the Saturday meeting of 2,500 leaders from the rightist Union for a Popular Majority party of French President Nicolas Sarkozy. The assembled conservatives applauded the former U.K. premier's calls to "take the future by the horns" and resist "retreating to comfort zones of out-dated slogans and old remedies".

"Today, one thing is as important between the distinctions between left and right: the difference between policies turned towards the future, and those stuck in the past," Blair told his enthralled audience in French. "Like a rising tide, globalization can not be rejected. In a world of change, woe is he who stagnates."

The government has blamed hoarders and smugglers for the problem. Wheat is a staple food in Pakistan and shortages have led to large scale rioting in the past. Flour shortfalls initially pushed up market prices. Later flour ran out on the open market when officials fixed prices and warned against violations. Now Pakistan's national disaster management authority has deployed thousands of paramilitary troops at wheat stores.

The head of the authority said the aim was to ensure that store owners did not sell more than allowed by the government. The move comes after nearly a month of wheat shortages. President Pervez Musharraf said there was enough grain to feed everyone and the crisis had been engineered. He and other leaders have pointed the finger at "hoarders" and "profiteers".

Officials accuse suppliers of smuggling wheat intended for domestic use to Afghanistan and Central Asia, where prices are higher.

Since November the pound has fallen by almost 9 per cent against the euro - a rate of decline not far off that seen during sterling's enforced exit from the European exchange rate mechanism in 1992, when it fell 11 per cent against Germany's D-Mark.

Malawi and Taiwan media earlier this month said that the African nation's government had cancelled a planned meeting with Taiwanese officials, raising speculation it might end 41 years of diplomatic relations with the island nation in favour of mainland China.

"It is fascinating for Christians to know that Islam gives such devotion to and has so much knowledge about Jesus," Talebzadeh told AFP. "By making this film I wanted to make a bridge between Christianity and Islam, to open the door for dialogue since there is much common ground between Islam and Christianity," he said. The director is also keen to emphasise the links between Jesus and one of the most important figures in Shiite Islam, THE IMAM MAHDI, SAID TO HAVE DISAPPEARED 12 CENTURIES AGO BUT WHOSE "RETURN" TO EARTH HAS BEEN A KEY TENET OF THE AHMADINEJAD PRESIDENCY.

The bulk of "Jesus, the Spirit of God", which won an award at the 2007 Religion Today Film Festival in Italy, faithfully follows the traditional tale of Jesus as recounted in the New Testament Gospels, a narrative reproduced in the Koran and accepted by Muslims. But in Talebzadeh's movie, God saves Jesus, depicted as a fair-complexioned man with long hair and a beard, from crucifixion and takes him straight to heaven. "It is frankly said in the Koran that the person who was crucified was not Jesus" but Judas, one of the 12 Apostles and the one the Bible holds betrayed Jesus to the Romans, he said. In his film, IT IS JUDAS WHO IS CRUCIFIED.

Every Christmas, Ahmadinejad and other officials lose no time in sending greetings to Christian leaders including the pope on what they describe as the "auspicious birthday of Jesus Christ, Peace Be Upon Him (PBUH)." In this year's message, Ahmadinejad said that "peace, friendship and justice will be attained wherever the guidelines of Jesus Christ (PBUH) are realised in the world."

SHIITE MUSLIMS, the majority in Iran, believe JESUS WILL ACCOMPANY THE IMAM MAHDI when he reappears in a future apocalypse to save the world. And Talebzadeh said the TV version of his film will further explore the links between Jesus and THE MAHDI -- WHOSE RETURN AHMADINEJAD HAS SAID HIS GOVERNMENT, WHICH CAME TO POWER IN 2005, IS WORKING TO HASTEN. Shiites believe the Mahdi's reappearance will usher in a new era of peace and harmony. "We Muslims pray for the 'Return' (of Imam Mahdi) and Jesus is part of the return and the end of time," Talebzadeh said. "Should we, as artists, stand idle until that time? Don't we have to make an effort?"

Recent reports have warned of rising food prices and rainforest destruction from increased biofuel production. The EU has promised new guidelines to ensure that its target is not damaging. EU Environment Commissioner Stavros Dimas said it would be better to miss the target than achieve it by harming the poor or damaging the environment. A couple of years ago biofuels looked like the perfect get-out-of-jail free card for car manufacturers under pressure to cut carbon emissions.

Instead of just revolutionising car design they could reduce transport pollution overall if drivers used more fuel from plants which would have soaked up CO2 while they were growing. The EU leapt at the idea - and set their biofuels targets. Since then reports have warned that some biofuels barely cut emissions at all - and others can lead to rainforest destruction, drive up food prices, or prompt rich firms to drive poor people off their land to convert it to fuel crops.

"We have seen that the environmental problems caused by biofuels and also the social problems are bigger than we thought they were. So we have to move very carefully," Mr Dimas told the BBC.

US Special Envoy for Middle East Security James Jones has been assigned the task of preparing a plan on this issue within six moths. A number of options are being considered, including the involvement of NATO troops or Jordanian and Egyptian forces. Jones, a former Marine Corps general, was NATO's top military commander from 2003 to 2005.

US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, who appointed Jones immediately after November's Annapolis Conference, hinted at this role in a briefing she gave reporters on her way to the PA/PLO donors' conference in Paris in mid-December. Rice said at the time that the establishment of an Arab state "will raise questions about a security vacuum when Israelis leave the West Bank . And this is not an issue just for the Palestinians. It's an issue for the states in the area as well, like Jordan and Egypt."
