CRUCIAL:
U.S. ambassador to Libya, 3 other Americans killed in Benghazi, http://wapo.st/Pb0D3J
John Christopher Stevens, the United States Ambassador to Libya, as well as a Foreign Service information management officer named Sean Smith and two other individuals whose identities are being withheld pending the notification of their families, have been killed in an attack on the American consulate in the eastern city of Benghazi. Stevens and the other victims were fleeing the consulate when their automobile was struck by a rocket-propelled grenade. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton described the attackers as a “small and savage group,” and stressed that “we will not turn our back” on “a free and stable Libya.” Two Marine Corps anti-terrorism security teams have been dispatched to Libya to aid security in the wake of the attack, and President Obama has said he has ordered increased security at U.S. diplomatic posts worldwide.
Mexico extradites Zetas founder to U.S., http://bit.ly/OguIMT
Jesus Enrique Rejon Aguilar, one of the founders of the Los Zetas criminal cartel, has been extradited to the United States from Mexico, where he will face charges of criminal conspiracy and drug trafficking in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Rejon Aguilar has been under investigation since 2006, and is believed to have been instrumental in the smuggling of large quantities of marijuana and cocaine into the United States as well as the laundering of the proceeds of the drug sales. He is considered a founder of the Los Zetas cartel, believed to be Mexico’s most violent organized crime group, and was described by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration as “the number three in the command structure.”
German court backs eurozone’s ESM bailout fund, http://bbc.in/RRb2Ec
Germany’s highest court has confirmed Germany’s commitment to the permanent eurozone rescue fund, the European Stability Mechanism (ESM), rejecting calls by 37,000 petitioners to block the ESM and make it subject to a referendum. The Constitutional Court imposed conditions on the commitment, including a cap on Germany’s contributions, which could only be overturned by the German parliament. German Chancellor Angela Merkel called it “a good day,” and European markets made gains on the news, with the euro posting a four-month high against the dollar at $1.29. Analysts suggest that the ESM is a critical tool to combating the eurozone debt crisis, along with a plan from the European Central Bank to purchase government bonds held by struggling countries. Under this scheme, Germany is liable for 190 billion euros, out of a 500 billion euro fund.
More Than 300 People Die in 2 Pakistan Fires, http://nyti.ms/QcYRRD
Two separate fires, one in a shoe factory in the eastern city of Lahore and one in a garment factory in the southern port city of Karachi, have claimed more than 300 lives, and “the death toll is expected to rise,” according to the commissioner of Karachi Roshan Ali Sheikh. Officials say that in the Karachi factory, panicking workers were trapped in the multistory building, which had only a single exit. The shoe factory in Lahore, according to officials, was set up illegally and disguised to look like a residential home from the outside, and burned down when a generator caught fire and ignited nearby chemicals. The deaths prompted renewed concerns about lax safety standards and inhumane working conditions in Pakistan.
Australia to ban giant fishing trawler, http://reut.rs/OmIaV7
Australian Environment Minister Tony Burke plans to introduce legislation giving him the power to ban a controversial Dutch “super-trawler” following protests from environmental groups including Greenpeace, who expressed concerns about over-fishing and possible detrimental effects on ocean wildlife. The trawler, 466 feet in length, is reportedly the world’s second-largest fishing vessel. Burke said that uncertainty over the environmental impact of the trawler led to the decision. The company behind the ship, Seafish Tasmania, said in an open letter written jointly with the Commonwealth Fisheries Association that the “trial by media” has undermined the credibility of Australian fisheries management, created insecurity among fishermen, and has deterred crucial investment needed to support regional jobs.

Damn the Media on 9/11/2012
Damn the media for covering up the truth of the murder of 3,000 people during the 9/11/01 inside job terrorist attack by Bush and Zionist-Jews’ Mossad on WTC-Building 7 and the Pentagon that was intended to unite Americans in anger and race hatred to support Bush and NeoCon-Israeli-Jews’ desire to make war on Afghanistan and Iraq and Iran ! The media is complicit! It is certainly not the first time big Zionist-Jew controlled media hides the truthful news: 1. On 12/07/1941 the President ALLOWED the Japanese air force to attack Pearl Harbor so that Americans would be united in anger and racial hatred, willing to join in that European War that then became WWII against Germany the enemy of the Jews; 2. In 1967 the President of USA betrayed and turned his back on the men of the unarmed USS Liberty and REFUSED American defense and rescue planes to respond to their SOS when the ship was intentionally targeted for total murderous destruction and sinking in an act of unprovoked WAR by the racist Jewish Nation of Israel with Jewish fighter jets bombing the ship clearly identified by the huge flying US Flag, and special forces Jewish Navy that torpedoed the ship and then machine gunned the life boats and the injured men on deck. Why did the President betray and abandon the men of the USS Liberty? He betrayed Americans under attack by the Jews, the sacred cow dominating US politics and media; 3 Why did the President allow BATF and FBI to murder 85 women and children at WACO, and at Ruby Ridge sniper intentionallhy murdered a mother holding her baby, and a young boy and his dog because the dog alerted to the sniper; 4. Now, we have Barack Obama aka Barry Soetoro communist usurping the Office of President with Hillary Clinton et al and violating the War Powers and Executive Orders powers to kill Americans and our economy, and he allow more illegal aliens to enter USA to vote for him, and he invites corrupt 3rd World Banana criminals at the United Nations to violate the Constitution, while at the same time concealing all his personal history and I.D. but dictating lawful Americans to give all personal informations to his federal Nazis, vindictively kidnapping and prosecuting veterans and sheriffs and Citizens who are critical or expose his crimes against America, but the MEDIA refuses to post such news of the truth about Obama and his crimes against America. No, the media gets NO tribute from me or any other informed natural born American Citizen who can distinguish enemy from friend.
