The "questionable kills" by American snipers derive largely from the murderous "rules of engagement" they are given by their superiors -- and by the anxiety of their officers to produce big "kill numbers" to appease the bloodlust and PR needs of the thugs in the White House and their "counterinsurgency genius," David Petraeus.

Keith Hirst ended up spending the night in a police cell after being accused of dropping an apple core. Despite strenuously denying the allegation, the former plumber, who has a heart condition, was taken into custody by up to five uniformed officers and had his DNA and fingerprints taken. It wasn't until nearly 11pm that he was able to ring them and explain what had happened. He was finally released after 18 hours behind bars. Mr Hirst, 54, said yesterday he would fight to clear his name in a case which could leave him with a criminal record and cost taxpayers thousands of pounds.

Dr. Timothy Ball (Climatologist, Chairman, NRSP), an environmental consultant, well-known public speaker and former climatology professor at the University of Winnipeg, also serves as Chairman of the Natural Resources Stewardship Project.

Dr. Ball is a leader in the current global warming debate and appears on Out There TV to dispel the myths of human-created global warming. While Carbon Dioxide levels are going up slowly, not because of man's activities, but because of natural events, global temperatures are in fact going down. In fact, according to Dr. Ball, earth is not warming at all at this point, but is instead heading into a period of cooling, brought about by inactivity on the sun.

Dr. Ball also explains why the push for biofuels is a disaster waiting to happen.
