Today I invoke Abu L Hasan Al Nuri of Bagdad.
a Sufi philosopher and poet (226-295)=(AD840-AD907) given the title "al núrí" "the illuminated". Today I´m going to wallow in "I told you so".
In the last few days Iraq has been examined by many.
I reported the flight and passing of info to the IAEA in my punky churchill round up of three sundays ago.
http://ireland.indymedia.org/cgi-bin/newswire.cgi?id=20867
then just afterwards there was a incident on the Indian Ocean with Scuds.
very silly propaganda stuff, but thereafter I gave you all a list of the global supply of SCUD missiles.
I also left you a short poem from a palestinian website on "Al Samoud". if you go the comments of this article.
http://ireland.indymedia.org/cgi-bin/newswire.cgi?id=21492
you´ll see my translation of that poem and the comment ["gobshite as always probably skizo"]
this is a short range missile worth thinking about.
So MR Blix has told the 15 member security council of the UN on Thursday past that Iraq has illegaly tested the "Al Samoud" short range missile.
The independent newpaper in England has run an aritcle on it.
They get paid I don´t.
By the way Mr Blix has said that the Iraqis volunteered this info which was not in the remit of the inspectors to "curry favour" with the West.
I recommend reading the poetry of Abú L Hasan coz I´m a rarity in this world.
my words exactly were...
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
now here is a short range missile.

very popular hasn´t been adjusted as the Iraqi´s did with the Soviet designd SCUD.
the al sumoud is short range capable of carrying bio/chem/dirty radioactive material.
Don´t worry about it the PATRIOT (another household name will deal effectively with it).
if you were one of the lucky arms buyers or dealers who were invited to the London arms fair of September 11 2001 you would have been treated to a short video clip of the PATRIOT missile´s new and more effective version.
However unfortuanetly sales of that updated missile were cancelled that day.
the link is to a poem in arabic.
just to be "cultural".

Oh my city an Alaadaa' afflicted her
But her although each oppressor a Shhbaa'
Because she believes at the death a Balbqaa'
Because she refuses the life of the defeat Walkhoaa'
Because she goes to extremes.
very sweet eh?
what do you reckon it means?
ask Dr. Kissenger.
he has an honorary doctorate in these things.
echelon still a word of very dubious etymology.
i reckon those arabs speak in code.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
aren´t I the cat´s pyjameeees?
read the article on the SCUDS at
http://ireland.indymedia.org/cgi-bin/newswire.cgi?id=21315
and

....do remember that here in indymedia land we often put the most interesting scoopy stuff in comments.
If you would like to follow the usual course of disinformation and read drunken journalists and diplomats thoughts on WAR and OIL and PEACE, then go paying 1€ for the lies.
Or you could make a donation to indymedia and I´l l still break news for you on average two weeks before it gets to your front pages.
oh what else has happened this week?
last week´s punky churchill round up
http://ireland.indymedia.org/cgi-bin/newswire.cgi?id=21736 looked at a load of different places.
I´d read it very carefully now if I were ye.
Do try and remember that for a variety of reasons Iosaf the future Nobel prize winner uses standard "crossaire" cryptology when pre-empting both media and intelligence employees of the Western info services.
so this last week, the lehendakari [constitutional leader of the Basque countries in Spain, under the present constitution allowed a certain degree of home rule, but not a referendum on the self-determination questions] has been touring Europe with his "external assocaition" vision of the Basque lands.
....just for it´s throw back memories of Ireland at the beginning of the 20th century this news should be interesting to Irish readers.
what is "external association"?
Now in the Land of Erron, we have seen the wiggeees and delinquents clash.
many article were written on the ongoing fight by Eoin Dubski and others.

Afghanistan has survived one year since the $ took vengance on them.
And we wait for Iraq.
And we wait for Palestine.
And we wait for hope as always.
Many other countries came into the news, but I´m not going to talk about them this week.
Just to comment on Punky Churchill, a characer born on Mayday 2000 in London, someone acting with inspired genius (not I) put a sod of grass almost like astro-turf on the head of the bronze statue of Winston in Westminster square, someone else put turkish graffiti, both acts were done for a reason. Punky Churchill with his two fingers up three finger down salute, nobel prize for literature "boring spires of eniskillen....." and deaths by the millions, punky churchill memory of good against evil, 1939-1945 and oh yes subvertise everything my friends, it is all our comomon inheritance of words and statutes and statues and speeches.
For what did that generation die?
fight them on the beaches.
http://ireland.indymedia.org/cgi-bin/newswire.cgi?id=20768
you now have to pay €5 to the Spanish state for gas masks and protective clothing if you want to volunteer for the beaches, you will recall I pointed out the need for such protection at
