ABC News' Imtiyaz Delawala reports: Move over, “Joe the Plumber.” “Tito the Builder” is on the trail. Campaigning across the state of Virginia today, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin was introduced at three rallies by small business owners concerned about Sen. Barack Obama's tax policies -- including Tito Munoz, a northern Virginia construction company owner who has become a staple of Palin’s speeches across the country. “Good morning, Virginia. I am Tito Munoz, but you can call me Tito the Builder. That's what I have been called by two great Americans who stand for freedom, and they are John McCain and...

Via the Standard, you read the Byron York article. Now see the movie! Featuring an introduction by Mother Jones lefty David Corn, lamenting the sad, sad state of American politics in which irresponsible leaders scapegoat media outlets and incite an angry rabble.

Monday, 11 December 2006 In the 60s and 70s of the 20th century, CIA had staged several assassination attempts on Josip Broz Tito, Yugoslavian President at the time, claims the former CIA associate Nikola Kavaja in an interview with the Independent newspaper. Kavaja, who was himself accomplice in the Tito assassination attempts, claimed that they were organised by the Serbian chetnik groups in US and West Europe, funded and supervised by the CIA. According to Kavaja, one of the most crucial actions were the assassination attempts on Tito. He again claimed that the first assassination failure took place in Brasilia...

NAZI REPRISAL POLICY IN SERBIA SHAMELESSLY EXPLOITED BY THE YUGOSLAV COMMUNISTS By Aleksandra Rebic On September 6, 1941, following the successful attacks by Mihailovich forces against the Germans in Western Serbia, Adolph Hitler issued the decree that for every German killed, 100 Serbian hostages would be shot. For every German wounded, 50 Serbs would be shot. This decree would be posted throughout Belgrade, Serbia on September 13, 1941. The Germans were not kidding. General Boehme, the German Commanding General of the occupation forces in Serbia from September 16 to December 2 of 1941, issued three orders to supplement Hitler’s decree....

BERLIN -- Choked in ivy, its balconies and pillars crumbling, the once-imposing villa looks as if it were abandoned years ago. A curtain twitches. A dark-haired woman wearing sunglasses peers out before whipping it back. She lives in just two rooms of the spacious property and one of those has a hole in the ceiling. The others are uninhabitable owing to damp, mold and broken windows. There has been no heating for 25 years. Water has to be heated on a stove. Many elderly residents of Belgrade, Serbia-Montenegro, in straitened circumstances share a similar fate. But this is the home...

The Axis occupation of former Yugoslavia and the domestic reaction to it present a complex picture. The legacy of these experiences has still not been completely overcome. The German-led onslaught on the Kingdom of Yugoslavia began on 6 April 1941 and ended with that country's capitulation 11 days later. Known from 1918 to 1929 as the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes, the Serbian-dominated state did not make a serious effort to remove the sources of its main domestic problem, namely Croatian discontent, until 1939. In that year, the Belgrade authorities cut a deal with Vlado Macek of the Croatian...

A probe into the mysterious shooting of two soldiers has revealed the existence beneath the Serbian capital of a secret communist-era network of tunnels and bunkers that could have served as recent hideouts for some of the world's most-wanted war crimes suspects. The 2-square-mile complex -- dubbed a "concrete underground city" by the local media -- was built deep inside a rocky hill in a residential area of Belgrade in the 1960s on the orders of communist strongman Josip Broz Tito. Until recently its existence was known only to senior military commanders and politicians. The secret was revealed during an...

BELGRADE -- Monday – Hitler's Berlin bunker would have got lost in the cavernous command post scooped out of a Belgrade hillside for Yugoslavia’s only president for life, Josip “Tito” Broz. Described for the first time by Serbian newspaper Vecernje Novosti at the weekend, the reported "secret tunnel network" near the barracks where two Serb army sentries were shot dead in a mystery killing six weeks ago was part of a nuclear-proof underground complex that goes six floors deep. A secret military facility of some sort had been the focus of intense speculation since sentries Dragan Jakovljevic and Drazen Milovanovic...

"Upper Macedonia" Suggested for State Name Politics: 11 November 2004, Thursday. The leader of Macedonia's Democratic Alternative Party Vassil Tupurkovski suggested the name Upper Macedonia to replace Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. He was quoted saying by MPA news agency that his country should adopt a name that would contribute to the good cooperation between Greece and Macedonia. Macedonia needs a partner in the face of Greece, Tupurkovski stated, on the small Balkan state's path toward the European Union. He ruled out the direct role of the US in the conflict over Macedonia's official name, after Bush's administration officially recognised...

Recognition of Macedonia: How the State Dept. gave Communism one last victory2004 - U.S. recognizes Macedonia Background: "Macedonia" is a false state created by Communists and where history was distorted for a Communist agenda. The State Dept. recognized this Communist created state as "Macedonia" as a bribe to the nationalists in power so they won't vote against granting the Albanians their own autonomous state this Sunday. In so doing not only did the State Dept. help create a new Muslim dominated statelet in the Balkans but it has betrayed its own anti-Communist principles (if Foggy Bottom does indeed have them)...

In the vernacular of espionage, he was a "spook," a World War II shadow soldier whose field of operations knew neither front lines nor rear. Art Jibilian was attending Navy radio operators school in 1943, when he was first approached by a recruiter for the Office of Strategic Services, precursor of the CIA. The man told Jibilian of his likely assignments, "Sometimes we will drop you by parachute. Sometimes you will go by submarine. You will have a 50-50 chance of making it back." "He didn't pull any punches," Jibilian recalls today. "He told me the OSS needed radio operators...

President Bush's new strategy of transferring power quickly to Iraqis, and his critics' alternatives, share a fundamental flaw: all commit the United States to a unified Iraq, artificially and fatefully made whole from three distinct ethnic and sectarian communities. That has been possible in the past only by the application of overwhelming and brutal force. President Bush wants to hold Iraq together by conducting democratic elections countrywide. But by his daily reassurances to the contrary, he only fans devastating rumors of an American pullout. Meanwhile, influential senators have called for more and better American troops to defeat the insurgency. Yet...

<p>The Israeli government has vowed to expel Yasser Arafat , calling him an "obstacle" to peace. But the 72-year-old Palestinian leader is much more than that; he is a career terrorist, trained, armed and bankrolled by the Soviet Union and its satellites for decades.</p>

When I am asked about the case for sending people into space, my answer is that, as a scientist, I’m against it. Most of what astronauts do in space can be done better and more cheaply now by computers and robots. Each advance in robotics and miniaturization only widens the efficiency gap between man and machine in space. Circling the Earth for months on end, the International Space Station is nothing more than a huge turkey in the sky. Now that only two astronauts are aboard the craft, the pursuit of any serious projects is even less likely; most of...
