"The Muttur Tragedy: A Re-Examination" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-11-13 12:35:04

On 20 July 2006 the LTTE closed the Mavil Aru anicuit thus depriving irrigation water to downstream paddy land. This was indeed a classic ‘riparian gambit’ – a challenge for a showdown for control over the entire Mahaveli delta based on the belief of the LTTE leadership that the recovery from the ‘Karuna’ and ‘Tsunami’ setbacks was adequate by this time for its fighting cadres to achieve the twin objectives of evicting not only the security forces of the government but also the Muslim inhabitants from this areaArmed confrontations between the security forces of Sri Lanka and the LTTE for which the riverine tract of Mavil Aru and the township of Muttur provided the venue in late July and early August 2006 appear in retrospect to mark a major turning point in the history of the ‘Eelam Wars’. The area has remained one of the most turbulent parts of the country throughout the past twenty years. It also ranked among the few localities of the ‘north-east’ in which the LTTE made significant advances over several years after the commencement of the ceasefire on December 2001. The most pronounced demographic feature of this area – it is roughly coterminous with the Administrative Division of Muttur – is its highly intricate spatial mosaic of ethnicity. Forming a part of Trincomalee District in which the main ethnic groups of Sri Lanka are represented in the total population in roughly equal proportions. Muttur Division had in 2004 a population of 45,298 of which 62% were Muslim and almost 38% were Tamil. There is here a fairly distinctive sectoral contrast in the ethnic composition of the population. In the urban sector consisting mainly of the township of Muttur. Muslims account for 90% of the population. In rural Muttur 56% of the population is accounted for by Tamils. Superimposed upon this sectoral contrast is a distinct spatial segregation of population on ethnic lines. In Muttur town for instance there are residential ‘neighbourhoods’ exclusively of one or the other ethnic group. More or less the same pattern is replicated in rural areas with the majority of Muslim villages located in proximity to Muttur town and the Tamil villages located in the eastern parts in the direction of Sampur a predominantly Tamil township. The irrigated areas to the south of Muttur town are featured by a fairly dense scatter of Tamil and Muslim villages which extends westwards towards the Division of Seruwila in which the Sinhalese account for about 90% of the population. The bustling township of Muttur covers an area of approximately two square kilometres. Since a regular ferry service is available between Muttur and Trincomalee town and since overland travel between the latter and the areas south of Trincomalee Bay involves a circuitous route. Muttur town forms in fact the principal gateway for the entire area covered by the Administrative Divisions of Muttur. Seruvila and Ichchalampattu. Its location overlooking the Trincomalee Bay also makes its control vitally important from military perspectives. The rural population of Muttur is served by a channel network fed by an up-stream anicuit along Mavil Aru that regulates the flow of water to a large segment of the command area (approximately 30,000 acres of paddy land) of the Allai tank. It was well within ‘government controlled territory’ (the so-called “cleared areas”) as demarcated (albeit somewhat imprecisely) under the Ceasefire Agreement. However since early 2002 the LTTE had in defiance of the terms of the agreement established a series of bases and encampments in the southern and eastern parts of the Division. Some of these were believed to have been equipped with heavy artillery that could bombard the government naval base at Trincomalee. This had been ignored by the government of that time in accordance with its policy of “confidence building”. Up to the outbreak of military confrontations in late July 2006 there were three camps of the Sri Lanka army sited at Kattaparichchan and Gandhinagar in proximity to Muttur town and Palathoppur about 10 miles further south. Mavil Aru-Muttur BattleOn 20 July 2006 the LTTE closed the Mavil Aru anicuit thus depriving irrigation water to downstream paddy land. This was indeed a classic ‘riparian gambit’ – a challenge for a showdown for control over the entire Mahaveli delta based on the belief of the LTTE leadership that the recovery from the ‘Karuna’ and ‘Tsunami’ setbacks was adequate by this time for its fighting cadres to achieve the twin objectives of evicting not only the security forces of the government but also the Muslim inhabitants from this area. Further its capture would mean a vast enrichment of the LTTE granary and would also provide the Tiger forces supremacy over the entire coastal area south of the Trincomalee Bay and over a corridor of access with only minor obstacles between their principal domain in Vanni and the localities they hold in Batticaloa and Ampara districts. The day after the closure of the sluice-gates armed LTTE cadres prevented officers of the Irrigation Department from reaching the anicuit while ignoring a plea by the SLMM and a group of peasants from the affected villages for restoration of the flow of water along the channel. On 25 July. ‘Elian’ (LTTE political wing leader in Trincomalee District) conveyed a demand to the SLMM that the government should take immediate steps to construct a water storage tank at Paddalipuram (in a LTTE-controlled locality) for use by Tamil residents of that area. Though this was intended to appear as a precondition to the re-opening of the anicuit government’s prompt agreement to grant the demand evoked no response from the LTTE leadership. Instead two days later there was a “community appeal” engineered by the LTTE containing a series of fresh demands some of which infringed on conditions laid down in the ceasefire agreement. The LTTE challenge had thus to be met with a decisive response the ceasefire agreement notwithstanding if not for holding on to an area the loss of which could have far-reaching repercussions from strategic perspectives at least for performing the government obligation of defending an innocent farm population. Thus a military counteroffensive codenamed ‘Operation Watershed’ was launched by the security forces on 26 July with the objective of reopening the anicuit and flushing out the LTTE cadres from that locality. Soon after the commencement of ‘Operation Watershed’ the LTTE captured the army encampments located in the vicinity of Muttur town thus opening a second front of the battle. The Tigers launched their occupation of Muttur town in a pre-dawn attack on 2 August. By the following morning a large number of well armed Tiger combatants appeared to be in control of the town having forced most of its Muslim inhabitants to either flee or seek refuge at public venues such as schools and mosques. In the course of this ‘conquest’ the Muslims were evidently subject to the entire range of harassment including killing looting extortion assault and intimidation thus adding to the already embittered Tamil-Muslim relations in the town. To elaborate this latter phenomenon the history of serious clashes between the Muslims and Tamils of Muttur could be traced back to 1987 when a communal conflagration was ignited by the killing of a Muslim civil servant and the abduction of several Muslims allegedly by LTTE cadres making their presence felt in the area. Thereafter in the early 1990s when the LTTE put into operation its programme of ‘ethnic cleansing’ of the ‘north-east’ (this was the era of the large-scale ‘Mosque massacres’ in Batticaloa District and of mass eviction of Muslims from Mannar) there were several spells of violence in the Muttur-Sampur-Toppur area which however did not cause ‘internal displacement’ on the same massive scale witnessed in Batticaloa and Mannar. There was in response the formation of militias bearing names such as “Jihad” and “Al Fatah” reported from some of the main Muslim areas of the east at that time. Far more serious than these in destructive impact was the violence that erupted in the first year of the ceasefire to last with fluctuation intensity over several months. On 29 May 2006 the LTTE issued an ultimatum ordering the Muslims to leave Muttur within seventy-two hours. It had no immediate effect other than that of inculcating fear. Soon after their arrival in Muttur on 2 August 2006 the Tiger cadres began a forced eviction of people from the town. According to an eye-witness account of a person in one of the groups so evicted they were herded out of the town in the direction of the LTTE-held areas and while on their way the women and children were ordered to proceed having separated them from the men. When the women refused to obey this order some of the men were allowed to re-join the group while the others had their hands tied and were led away. The whereabouts of these captives are still not known. The counterattack by the security forces on Muttur began soon thereafter. By about 6 August the SLArmy had re-taken the town evicting the LTTE killing a large number of its cadres. This had involved both artillery bombardment as well as close-encounter gun battles. It is possible that the workers attached to the French aid agency Action Contre la Faim or ‘ACF’ (16 Tamils and 1 Muslim; 13 men and 4 women) were killed in the course of these clashes. There are of course several other speculative explanations equally plausible. For instance one cannot rule out the Tiger high-command deciding that the sacrifice of 17 lives – had those of the aid team been genuinely engaged relief operations among the Muslims they could also have been seen as “traitors” to the Eelam cause – is worth the gains that will accrue from the likelihood that the SLArmy would be held responsible for the killing and thus ordering its cadres to kill the ACF workers prior to withdrawal from the town. (This possibility has been considered and discarded by a Reuter correspondent on the grounds of information conveyed by the grieving father of one of the victims according to whom the LTTE does not kill other Tamils!)Inquisition and Propaganda OnslaughtSoon after reports of the killing of ACF workers reached Colombo President Rajapakse initiated an investigation – one that would use the expertise offered by several foreign governments. On the basis of preliminary discussions at which officers of the ministries of Defence and Foreign Affairs local experts in the field of forensic medicine and representatives of several diplomatic and aid missions participated an investigation strategy was decided upon and the information on the killings as available at that time was disclosed to the media at a press conference. Indicating the prevailing mood the ACF Executive Director Benoit Miribel when asked by the press for an opinion on who was responsible for the killings said: “I do not know who is responsible. We will take all steps to get to the bottom if this tragedy”. In order to make that ideal descent to the bottom it was vital for the inquiry to be far more thorough and objective than say the investigation conducted by the famous Allen Rock in November 2006 who in a tour of a few places in the east of Sri Lanka that lasted no more than a few hours (he had no pervious experience in the country no communication skill in a language used by its inhabitants no access to its more turbulent areas and much of his time in Sri Lanka was spent in Colombo) discovered among other things photographs of young Tamils residing in that part of the country being supplied by the Sri Lanka Army to the rebel group led by Karuna so as to facilitate their abduction for conscription as fighters!To digress briefly from the main subject of this essay there is reason to speculate that the Allen Rock “mission” was intended by its sponsors to harmonise with their ongoing efforts to rescue the LTTE from the impending debacle in the Eastern Province. At least one pro-LTTE journal gleefully proclaimed that Allen Rock was sent to Sri Lanka by Radhika Coomaraswamy. ‘UN Rapporteur for Children in Armed Conflict’ as her ‘Special Advisor’. The discovery by Rock referred to above is one of many mentioned in his report which provided the basis for his indictment of the armed forces of Sri Lanka for alleged collaboration with Karuna in the forced conscription of children. To those of us with some familiarity with how some of these visiting consultants conduct their investigations in the country there could hardly be any doubt that most of the Rock “findings” would have been picked up from the “cocktail circuit” in Colombo. Further a highly receptive atmosphere for the submission of the Rock report to the UN was created by Philip Alston another of UN’s innumerable Special Rapporteurs whose repertoire included a report intended to persuade the Security Council that a UN-sponsored “international human rights monitoring mission is indispensable” to Sri Lanka. Had that effort succeeded the advances being made by the armed forces against the Tigers in the Eastern Province would have been effectively halted. Getting back to Muttur since the killing had taken place at a time when the SLArmy and the Tiger cadres were locked in fierce combat for control of the town (i e on 4 August) there appeared to be no means of ascertaining the veracity of the mutually conflicting charges which the various accounts of the atrocity contained until the completion of the investigations to the satisfaction of all parties concerned. With the exception of the propaganda organs of the LTTE most publications that contained references to the Muttur tragedy were cautious enough to place the blame in general terms on both the government as well as the LTTE for the rising tide of violence in the country but refrained from making specific accusations. There were however the exceptions. The earliest Reuter report on the incident dated 6 February 2007 quoted Jeevan Thiagarajah the Head of the Consortium of Humanitarian Agencies (AHC) as stating: ”They (AHC relief team) found them (ACF workers) in the office on the ground lying face down executed. (and) the military which says it now controls most of the town said it knew nothing about the bodies and denied involvement”. A further report by Reuter correspondent Peter Apps datelined 8 August reported two persons he had interviewed – (a) Sinathambi Navaratnarajah according to whom on 2 August fighting raged throughout Muttur with the Tigers taking positions in key buildings in the centre and that by 4 August most of the town’s people had fled and (b) Richard Arulraja (father of one of the victims) who had said “… we heard the military personnel came and shot them.”Far more significantly the same report quoted Ulf Henricsson the Head of the Sri Lanka Monitoring Mission as saying: “When you (‘you’ refers to the monitors) are not let in it is a sign that they (army) have something to hide” – a curious conclusion given the fact that even by 8 August. Muttur town was still vulnerable to artillery attack by the retreating Tigers and the army was still engaged in operations south of the town. Thereafter in several published reports on the Muttur tragedy. Henricsson was cited as the principal authority for the conclusion that the ACF workers had been killed by the SLArmy. It was also probably on the basis of information from Henricsson that the ‘Resolution’ adopted by the European Union Parliament in on 7 September 2006 stated: “(T)he SLMM has found that seventeen aid workers employed by the French humanitarian agency ‘Action Against Hunger’ had been shot dead by government forces in Muttur” (EU Parliament Resolution of September 7. 2006. Paragraph D of the ‘Preamble’). The reference in the EU Resolution to the SLMM “finding” that the ACF workers were killed by the Sri Lanka army evokes special interest for several reasons – first by early September 2006 the in-depth investigations into the Muttur killings were still in their early stages; second the Monitoring Mission’s own investigations at Muttur (if any) could not have been systematic and comprehensive because the process of resettlement of the displaced was far from being complete; and third such a “finding” with the related evidence had not been formally conveyed by the SLMM to the government of Sri Lanka. This curious feature of the EU Resolution provides reason to speculate whether its references of Muttur represented an input of the Norwegians who by this time were not even attempting to conceal their pro-LTTE bias (It is well known that the government of Norway ardently opposed the passing of sanctions against the LTTE earlier that year). A report in The International Herald Tribune of 30 August 2006 authored by Shimali Senanayake and Somini Sengupta though not adding significantly to the facts on the Muttur tragedy sheds light on how Henricsson arrived at his conclusion regarding the culpability of the SLArmy. Three reasons evidently formed the basis of the conclusion.“First security forces had been present in Muttur at the time of the killings. Second the government had prevented the truce monitors from going to the crime scene to investigate immediately after the discovery of the bodies. Third confidential conversations with "highly reliable sources" had pointed to the culpability of security forces. No other group the peace monitors concluded could have carried out the killings.”This type of reasoning does cause surprise especially in the context of the vital importance of Henricsson’s position as the Head of the Monitoring Mission and the absurdly extreme circumspection he had always shown in pinning any crime on the LTTE. To comment briefly on these “reasons”: (a) It is true that on 4 August the SLArmy was present in Muttur but so were LTTE cadres; (b) The army is very likely to have prevented the truce monitors from proceeding to Muttur but its consideration could well have been the safety of the monitors. As for Henricsson’s reliance on “confidential conversations with highly reliable sources” the question which he should have asked himself is whether it is reasonable to “convict” the SLArmy on the basis of evidence from undisclosed sources given the fact that contextually the source of the information is vital to a determination of the credibility of the information. A masked man identified individuals among the crowd who were accused of being members of Jihad and they were tied up by the LTTE. There are conflicting reports as to what happened next with some stating that the LTTE began firing at the men. A shell landed in the vicinity reportedly killing some of the LTTE cadres and the fleeing Muslims. It is still unclear as to how many of the men were abducted by the LTTE with rough estimates ranging from 30 to 60 and how many were killed in the explosion or shot by the LTTE. In a paper by Mirak Raheem titled ‘Muttur: A Betrayal of a Community’ – probably the most detailed account of the tragedy published during its early aftermath – both the SLArmy as well as the LTTE have been charged with indiscriminate shelling of the town and causing immense suffering to its civilian inhabitants by way of both death and injury as well as large-scale eviction. Sri Lanka government in particular is criticised in the paper for its seemingly callous neglect of the safety of Muslims of the area. However its statement that “(F)inally on the 5th (August) three days after the battle began it seemingly ended as the government intensified its attack and moved into secure control over the town and the LTTE made a strategic withdrawal from Mutur (sic.)” is of direct relevance to the specific issue on which the present study is focused for it implies continuing armed confrontations in the town on 4 August the day on which the ACF workers were killed. In addition the following extract from this paper provides a glimpse of the nature of LTTE relations with the Muslim community at the time of their evacuation of the town.“When the Muslim community took the decision to leave south to Kantale the LTTE said it would provide safe passage and even drinking water. Between the third mile-post and Pachanoor the LTTE cadres’ behaviour abruptly changed – they began to verbally and physically abuse the civilians and demanded that the men should separate from the women and youth under 15. A masked man identified individuals among the crowd who were accused of being members of Jihad and they were tied up by the LTTE. There are conflicting reports as to what happened next with some stating that the LTTE began firing at the men. A shell landed in the vicinity reportedly killing some of the LTTE cadres and the fleeing Muslims. It is still unclear as to how many of the men were abducted by the LTTE with rough estimates ranging from 30 to 60 and how many were killed in the explosion or shot by the LTTE”. While preliminary investigations were still under way the notion that a ‘Mai Lai’ type of massacre by the SLArmy had occurred at Muttur gained currency. Its origin has to be traced to Henricsson’s clumsy logic. Its propagation was of course the result of the coordinated campaign of propaganda by various agencies which with diverse motives and impulses have tended to lean towards the LTTE especially over periods featured by its military defeats and other setbacks. Certain well known human rights organisations – those that have had a record of silence in the face of atrocities of unimaginable brutality committed by the LTTE and of justifying their silence on the grounds that there is no “hard evidence” to prove Tiger culpability – had no such reticence in pointing their prim fingers at the Sri Lanka Army. There was in addition the usual chorus of “genocide”. “holocaust”. “pogrom” and “extermination” charges from the LTTE propagandists and front organisations. A discrepancy between the ballistics report submitted by the Government Analyst to the Magistrate’s inquiry on 7 March 2007 and the findings by Malcolm Dodd (Australian pathologist invited by the government to observe the forensic examinations in October 2006) reflected adversely on the investigation procedures being pursued. According to the former report the bullets recovered from the corpses were all of 7.63 mm calibre. Dodd however though his expertise is in the field of forensic pathology had ventured to make the ballistic-related observation that the calibre of one of the projectiles he had recovered from the skull of a victim was of 5.56 mm. Needless to say the almost spontaneous response of all external vigilante was to accept the latter claim and to imply that the ballistic findings of the Government Analyst could well be part and parcel of a cover-up attempt. Such an insinuation it should be noted disregards the fact that the bullets being of either 7.62 mm or 5.56 calibre is of no consequence to an identification of the killers because cartridges with both types of projectile are in use by both the army as well as the LTTE. What is of even greater interest in the context of this display of prejudice is that a second report submitted by Malcolm Dodd in which he has admitted to an error in his earlier ‘ballistic’ findings and stated that all recovered bullets are in fact of the 7.62 calibre have had no impact whatever on publications of the recent past (including it is sad to note a report of the prestigious International Commission of Jurists) which have continued to highlight this so-called discrepancy. Certain observations contained in the two ICJ reports (Text Box 1) generate doubt on whether the CJC has actually adhered to the “distinguishing” characteristic which it claims for itself – its “impartial objective and authoritative legal approach to the protection and promotion of human rights through the rule of law” – to the preparation of its reports on Sri Lanka. For instance in order to substantiate its claim that the investigations conducted by the government of Sri Lanka are featured by a “disturbing lack of impartiality” (Paragraph 3 in Text Box 1) the ICJ report refers to Michael Birnbaum according to whom “(O)fficial police reports indicate that from the outset prior to any investigation the police had decided that the LTTE were responsible for the killing.” The ‘police reports’ (referred to by Birnbaum as those compiled at “the outset”) are evidently the records that contain the initial impressions of the investigating officer. These are usually based on an examination of the crime scene and haphazardly conducted interviews with on-the-spot informants – no less methodical than say the investigation of a truce monitor of the type Henricsson has shown himself to be. This routine procedure (similar to that followed in most countries) does not tantamount to formulation of conclusions especially those that restrict the scope of subsequent investigations. Nor can the records be construed as indicating prejudgment and prejudice. Does Birnbaum or the ICJ imply that had the police found at the outset of its investigations evidence of LTTE involvement in the crime that evidence should not have been reported? Thus by both misrepresentation of the purpose of the police reports on the Muttur killings as well as making no reference whatever to the actual contents of the police reports (which could be quite revealing unless there is a presumption that the police cannot be impartial) the ICJ itself has committed the same offence of prejudgment with which it has branded the investigations conducted by the Sri Lanka police. Further in its criticism relating to the subject of ‘collection of evidence’ the ICJ states that. “apart from the family members of those killed no other Tamils of the area have been questioned (by the police)”. How did Birnbaum arrive at this conclusion? What the police places on record being evidence considered materially relevant to what is being investigated surely the record will not contain a comprehensive list of those questioned. Moreover does this criticism imply that in order to meet the level of adequacy demanded by the ICJ it would be essential to record evidence from Tamil witnesses regardless of the near certainty that given the specific circumstances of this crime those of the Tamil community (unless the were participants in the killing) would not have been present at the time it was committed? Does the ICJ criticism also imply that the government investigators ought to have gone on recording evidence from Tamil witnesses until such time that some such witness says that it was the army that had killed the aid workers?Yet another suspicion which the ICJ disseminates without actually making a categorical accusation is that some of the ‘ballistic productions’ at the investigations could have been tampered with. The basis of this suspicion is that the items referred to were not produced at the magistrate’s inquiry by the authorised officer but by another and that the sealed packets that contained the items were not opened in the presence of “an Australian expert observer”. Is there a display of naivety (if not traces of racial prejudice) even in this criticism? Had there been a genuine conspiracy to defeat the objective of the investigation wouldn’t it have been possible for the conspirators to easily avoid any procedural irregularity?In comparing the two ICJ reports one also notes that the alleged “unwarranted interference” which the transfer of the inquiry to the Magistrates Court of Anuradhapura made in the April report does not appear in the July report. Was this due to a realisation that the charge made in the earlier report was later found to be unwarranted? Finally as noted earlier there is the ICJ persistence with the “bullet calibre discrepancy” in disregard of the fact that it is unfounded and irrelevant to the determination of culpability to the killing. How and why a group of seventeen aid workers (all with one exception. Tamil) happen to be at the predominantly Muslim town of Muttur at such an intensely turbulent time has remained a mind-rankling question ever since the occurrence of this tragedy. In this context the questions that have recently been raised (abridged as follows) by the Head of SCOPP are indeed vitally relevant.• Why were these workers sent to Muttur on August 1. 2006 – i e on the day before the Tiger cadres launched their attack on the town?• Why were they not withdrawn as workers attached to other aid agencies were when according to reports some of them begged to be rescued• Did the ACF act with a sense of responsibility regarding the safety of its workers?• Why has the ACF refrained from paying any compensation to the bereaved families?To recapitulate the facts relevant to the first of these questions: A group of young Tamils arrived at Muttur a predominantly Muslim town at a time when an almost week-long battle was raging in the hinterland of the town and when the capture of the town by the LTTE was imminent. Soon thereafter (on 2 August) a much larger group of young Tamils (note that even in the “battle field” not all LTTE cadres wear uniforms) arrived in Muttur occupied it with the force of arms and caused intense havoc and misery to the inhabitants of the town. While this latter group held sway over Muttur (i e. 2 August) there was no reported attempt by the ACF workers either to request rescue or to escape from the venue of battle (the reported telephone conversations on that day do not convey a sense of desperation among them). Soon thereafter (from about 3 August) however heavy fighting erupted between the LTTE cadres and the army. Given the embittered Tamil-Muslim relations that prevailed in Muttur what specific “actions against hunger” were the young Tamil men and women employed by the ACF expected to perform? It is in the context of these considerations that questions such as ‘Why were they sent” and “What were they expected to do” assume significance. The responses by the ACF authorities to these queries have hitherto been no more than a display of a level of imbecility which one does not associate with individuals holding positions of responsibility in organisations that have a global reach in the functions they perform. They have stated for instance that the T-shirts emblazoned with the ACF symbol worn by the aid workers should have immunized them from any danger. Implicitly they have thus pretended both ignorance about the ground situation in Muttur at that time as well as lack of understanding of the reality that for combatants (of both the LTTE as well as the army) constantly in danger of sudden death from any source and in any form. T-shirt insignia could hardly be of any consequence. Is this a pretence meant to cover a more sinister objective?Implications of the reported information on the ‘crime scene’ from the perspective of motive should also have received the attention of the accusers of the SLArmy. The relevant information is that the corpses of the victims in the alleged “mass murder” had bullets embedded in the heads; firing had evidently been “close range”; the hands of some of the victims were tied at the back; and as the Chief of the Consortium of Humanitarian Agencies was reported to have said the corpses were placed on the ground face down when his team found them. These details highlighted in pro-Tiger propaganda publications as evidence of not only a “mass execution” but also a post-execution “exhibition” of corpses have been repeated even in reports published by reputed international organisations. Admittedly. Sri Lanka is not unfamiliar with “executions cum exhibitions” conducted with the obvious motive of inculcating terror. The LTTE for instance has engaged in it on innumerable occasions especially in administering punishment to “traitors”. It was also a widely practiced terror tactic during the insurrection of the late 1980s. In the aftermath of the Muttur tragedy however no conceivable benefit could have accrued to the SLArmy by proclaiming in such a manner that a mass execution had taken place. Nor is there any evidence of an attempt on its part at concealment. Had concealment of the crime or confounding evidence been an intention it would have been easy to place say a few guns and grenades amidst the corpses – not an entirely unknown practice among law enforcers – so as to make the killing look like an act of self-defence while creating suspicion of possible collaboration between the ACF workers and the LTTE. What the army is reported to have done instead is to deny involvement in the killing permit (as early as 6 August) a “relief team” dispatched by the Consortium of Humanitarian Agencies to examine the “crime scene” and to transmit impressions to their Chief in Colombo (who in turn conveyed the information to the Reuter correspondent as early as 6 August) and then ensure with commendable professionalism (in the context of the fact that the army control over parts of Muttur still remained uncertain) the delivery of the corpses to the District Hospital at Trincomalee thus facilitating subsequent investigation. Is there in this conduct the basis for a charge of committing a “crime against humanity”?About one year after the ‘Battle of Muttur’. Sir John Holmes. UN Under-Secretary General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordination while on a visit to Sri Lanka was reported to have stated at an interview with the Reuter correspondent in Colombo that Sri Lanka "is one of the worst in the world” in respect of the safety of humanitarian workers. This came as a shock to the government mainly for the reason that both at Holmes’ meetings with various officials in Sri Lanka as well as at the news conference held prior to his departure the impression he had conveyed was one of general satisfaction with the conditions under which those attached to aid agencies work in the country. The post-Muttur attempts by various personages and agencies at denigrating Sri Lanka were expected to converge in an all-out attack on the government of Sri Lanka at the International Human Rights Sessions held in Geneva in September 2007 and to culminate in a major intervention sponsored by the UN in the name of safeguarding human rights which would in turn. (hopefully) rescue the LTTE from the setbacks it has suffered in the previous months. As matters stand at present (late September 2007) this appears to have been averted (or at least temporarily halted) mainly as a result of the efforts of a few Sri Lankans including the country’s ambassador to the UN. Dayan Jayatillake and the Head of SCOPP. Rajiv Wijesinghe. Judging on the basis of information made available to us by the press and other sources they appear to have also demonstrated that the promotion of the country’s interests necessitates besides the usual diplomatic niceties the bold confrontation of duplicity prejudice and arrogance.(http://lankaguardian blogspot com) This blog concerns the Sri Lankans fight against LTTE terrorism. LTTE is a ruthless terror outfit which fights for an ethnically pure separate Tamil homeland for Tamils living in Sri Lanka since 1983. The outfit is well known for its extreme tribalism and nefarious crimes against soft targets specially the women and children. During its two and half decade long terrorist war against Sri Lankan people. LTTE has killed over 70,000 people mostly civilians in its ethnic cleansing raids indiscriminate bomb attacks suicide blasts etc. LTTE is also in top of the UN's list of shame for using child soldiers in war. As a tactical measure the outfit uses only young female cadres and male child soldiers for the front lines. They died for something that may be trivial to many. A piece of high ground on a salty sand dune or a landing area in a landmine filled beach or simply protecting a cadjan bunker in some remote corner of the island. But when dusk settles on this protracted war every sacrifice these thousands made will have a reason and purpose. We should pay tribute to all our fallen heroes who gave their today for our tomorrow. Remember Them"If you are able save for them a place inside of you and one backward glance when you are leaving for the places they can no longer go.

I hope you had a great weekend. And we are of cover in the heat of the summer -- most of the US surrounded by constant reports of bizarre weather. I don't have to go into details -- most of you have seen examples of it on the Internet and in the mainstream media as come up. It's a hot one. Certainly a hot one again tonight on the schedule. Benjamin *Fulford*... *FULFORD*: Hello! *RENSE*: Hi. Ben. fasten on. Let me do a apprise intro here and then we'll get right to you. For our listeners who don't know. Mr. *Fulford* is a Tokyo-based journalist who appeared on this schedule on July the 5th. 2007 making some very radical -- and some would say hopeful -- claims. According to Benjamin *Fulford* a Chinese secret society with 6 million members including 1.8 million Asian gangsters and 100,000 professional assassins have targeted Illuminati members who they perceive to have world depopulation plans -- a subject we have talked about for many years on this program off and on. That is the depopulation effort -- Global 2000 among others. They contacted Ben *Fulford* a Canadian expatriate after he warned that the Illuminati planned to reduce the Asian population to about half a billion populate -- about 500 million -- by means of racial or genetic-specific biological weapons. Remember SARS? Well in his first conversation. SARS was pointed out by Ben *Fulford* as being quite likely an Asia-specific or ethno-specific weapon -- a biological weapon. I noticed [this] actually when it happened and it broke out in the Orient and made its way here to Canada. In a Canadian newspaper they published all the photographs of the fatal SARS victims in Canada. About 95 percent of them were Asian. I immediately said there was something suspicious about that and drew some conclusions which may well be true. With Ben *Fulford* as their spokesman now the word is out. This Asian - Chinese - secret society is taking on the Illuminati. At least that's the story. Tonight in Part Two of our exclusive conversation with Ben *Fulford* we're going to cover many new issues as come up as expand on the earlier ones as well. I will also open the phones a bit later on for your questions. As you might well create by mental act. Mr. *Fulford's* first tour here rattled and rumbled its way around the world on the Internet and continues to do so tonight. It's also an appearance you can hear for remove on *Rense* com right now. You can also read all the stories relating to that first tour on July the 5th and several essays written by Mr. *Fulford* himself. You also may denote he was the Asia-Pacific bureau chief for eight years for Forbes magazine and remains a professional journalist as I said based in Tokyo. lacquer where we go now to say hello. Welcome approve. Benjamin *Fulford*. Thanks for being here. Ben! *FULFORD*: Yeah it's a great pleasure. A great recognise. *RENSE *: The pleasure is exploit sir. We covered so many things measure time and there are a lot of things to go over tonight. We're going to try to bring many of those earlier things into advance cerebrate show some and elaborate on others. One of the things that intrigued me -- and when you mentioned it. I was certainly one of maybe millions who began looking up on Google or other examine engines information about your great grandfather -- G. T. * Fulford*. That was fascinating to hear about his interest give and apparent friendship with Nikola Tesla. He was apparently murdered. He died in an automobile accident and I think it was 1905. Was that the year of his death? *FULFORD*: Yes it was. *RENSE*: There sure as hell weren't a lot of cars running in 1905. One wonders. [Laughs] *FULFORD*: I believe it was the first fatal car accident in Canadian history although it took displace in Massachusetts. *RENSE*: Bizarre. Bizarre. Cars back then didn't do much more than 20-25 miles an hour. I wouldn't think. *FULFORD*: Yeah. There was an erratic driver who somehow managed to crash through to my great grandfather in a horse-drawn bus while he himself. (the driver) stayed perfectly safe. *RENSE*: He struck your grandfather with the car? * FULFORD*: He managed to get the car and hit a horse-drawn bus in such a way that only my great grandfather died. *RENSE*: A horse-drawn bus. * FULFORD*: Yes. [clears throat] *RENSE*: Now that's something I've seen in old photographs of course. This is change surface more bizarre. Now at the time your grandfather was a very wealthy man. He was not very old either. What was he. 50 years old? 45 to 50? *FULFORD*: Yeah. He was 50. He was the largest shareholder in General Electric and he was about to buy a affiliate that we experience of today as General Motors. *RENSE*: Huh. And he had made his fortune as I recall reading in patenting early medicines -- so-called modern medicines. *FULFORD*: Yeah. The big hit was something called *Fulford's * Pink Pills for color populate which were basically press tablets. In those days everyone had anemia because of the new food processing technology. * RENSE*: Huh. Now with all the iron added to foods people have overdoses of press. *FULFORD*: approve then they had anemia. I experience there was choose of a spooky thing about him. This is something that makes you wonder. The longest serving fix minister in Canadian history was named Kinsey King (ph). He was fix Minister for more than 20 years and was considered to have been a very good fix Minister. When he died they open diaries. They open he made his political decisions by consulting a crystal roll and contacting spirits. *RENSE*: [Laughs] I shouldn't express emotion because the Reagans did much the same of course. Nancy Reagan it is said an awful lot of enter was from her psychic in San Francisco. *FULFORD*: Yeah. The other thing is that [the Prime Minister's] psychic was my great-grandmother. * RENSE*: Oh really! *FULFORD*: And the person he was consulting was my great-grandfather! *RENSE*: And the crystal roll was just a... *FULFORD*: Well it was supposed to [help you] hypnotize yourself so you could get in touch with the spirit world something desire that. *RENSE*: Run that by me again. Your great-grandmother was the psychic he consulted... *FULFORD*: Yeah. *RENSE*: And your great-grandfather was... *FULFORD*: The animate he was getting advice from..

Copyright Your NAME ;Ralph Kenneth Evansand Lewis Thompson Mohr... Recognize at the outsetthat you are dealingwith a clump of criminalswho undergo abandoned their responsibilitiesas agents of the peopleby vacating the governmentand becoming a corporationto go the commercial interestsof the world. They attempt to make a corporationout of you too,by writing your Christian appellationin all-capital letters,which is a clear prejudiceagainst you according to;Texas Rules of Civil Procedure(TCRP) Rule 52,Alleging a Corporation:"Allegationsthat a corporation is incorporatedshall be taken as Truth unless deniedby affidavitof the adverse celebrate his agentor his attorney,whether such corporation is publicor privateand however created."act say of the words "however created"because when those attorneyswrite your namein all-capital letterson a summons or warrantor notice you undergo now been constitutedas a corporation. Your name was similarly corruptedwhen a constructive trust was establishedas you volunteered into Social Security,making you partof the national socialist democracyand assigning you an employee I. D number (SSAN). TCRP Rules 53 and 54 affirm the notionthat if someone allegesthat you are a corporationand you do not contradict it in a timely manner,you are an indeed a corporationfor the commercial matter in question. Checking the definition of "label"in Bouvies law dictionary we sight that if;1) the opposing align does NOT useyour Christian appellation and;2) you do NOT make an appearance and;3) you do NOT waive process-then they undergo NO jurisdiction over you. One method of obtaining controlover the all-capital letter fictionis to file a UCC-1 financing statementwith the secretary of state. Another is to bring that fictionunder your domain as private intellectualproperty through a procure,which enjoys the protection of common lawwhen made a move of the public recordwith the local county recorder.(procure law existed beforethe modern statute was created.)Compare this with a trademark,which is not a common law documentsince it comes under statutory law. The assign since 1935 from Washingtonis that all the express governments standardizetheir state rules procedures and statutes. References given here use the Texas label,however there are equivalent sectionsin each of the other state rulebooksfrom which to conclude similar authority. TRCP command 52 was citedin Galleria Bank vs. Southwest Properties,498 Southwest 2nd page 5 as follows:"The failure of an adverse celebrate [i e you]to deny under oath the allegationthat he is incorporated dispenseswith the necessity of proof of the fact."So when you receive a presentment(bill citation tax account lawsuit summons),you are alleged to be a corporationsimply by how your Christian appellationis styled (all-capital letters)on the presentment. If you react to that allegationby remaining silent during the measure givenfor responding it amounts to acceptanceof your corporate status(acquiescence by conquer). The fact that the oppositionputs a case numberor file reference or authorise numberon the presentmentconstitutes a claim numberthat completes the affect of creatinga private corporationwithout your awareness. Thus for that particular be,you are presumedto be a corporation unless you disown it(oppose it) with an affidavitsworn under penalties of perjury. command: Never evaluate a presentmentwithout contesting it but rememberthat the ONLY thing you want to contestis the "call of the inspect," i e the corruptionof your Christian appellationinto a corporate fiction create. To argue anything else in the pleading(even a contentionthat you are an ax murderer)instantly causes you to traverseinto the opposition's jurisdiction-and you're dead!By the opposition successfully allegingthat you are a corporation,you become caught in a Catch-22. Commercial courtscannot broach with flesh-and-blood People-they broach only with legal fictions(ACTORS)and you are entirely out of placein a commercial courtunless they somehow bring home the bacon to join you,the Living Soul with a corporation(ACTOR),which is how the act obtains jurisdictionover you. However corporations cannot speakfor themselves; they dependupon an attorney to be their mouthpieceand represent them before the court. You have NO STANDINGbefore the act,not being a member of the BAR,and thus cannot speak for the legal fiction(ACTOR) whose name sounds exactlylike yours (idem sonans). For you to attempt a court appearanceperpetrates fraud upon the courtand NOTHING you say or filewith the courtmay be recognized or heard,in spite of your best intentionsand most diligent efforts. The judge will take silent notice of thisimmediately. Hiring an attorney only complicates issuesbecause it makes you a ward of the court(incompetent to handle your own affairs)AND it compromises your interests(attorneys are officers of the courtwhose first allegiance is to the courtand not to their clients). Representing yourself pro se is no solution,either unless you conveniently happen to bea member of the BAR(change state the thought!). Having traversed drink the slippery slope,which leads to your own destruction,it is virtually impossibleto then reverse courseand disassociate yourselffrom the legal fiction(ACTOR). Once you've PROVED you are a fraudby agreeing to be a corporation,a powerful principal of lawrules your affairs:"No truth can come from a fraud". Avoid that slippery angle in the first placeby declaring. "That's not me!"as your AUTOMATIC RESPONSEto any presentment oral or written,where the ACTOR'S label is usedinstead of your Christian appellation."I don't know whose name you undergo there,but that's not me!"WARNING:Your declaration of "That's not me!"needs to be made by affidavitwhen it is to become a partof an official preserve. Refer toDr. spice Company v. Crowe,621 SW 2nd 466,which held as follows:Plaintiff pled defendant as a corporation. Defendant did not contradict by verified pleadingpursuant to TRCP 52 and 93that he was not a corporation. Thus such fact was established. Presentments may be handledin any of three ways:1. Write "This is not me" in red inkdiagonally across the face of the instrumentand return it to the sender.2. create verbally "No such entity exists" in red inkdiagonally across the face of the instrumentand go it to the sender.3. First record a copyrightof the ACTOR'S nameand then act discovery with the senderof the presentment:Inquire whether the sender is making a claimagainst your copyright and if so,how they declare to command the costof such a claim(one million dollars in United States silver coinper use per issuer).(The presumption is that the sender is usingthe ACTOR'S name in an act to extractsomething from your estate.)Claims for unlawful use of the copyrightfall under common lawand not under the commercial statutesregulating negotiable instrumentsand contracts. Therefore silver specie may be demandedin any settlement instead ofFederal Reserve notes or credit instrumentsof the United States. The Texas Penal label Articles 1.03. 1.04and 1.07(and similar language in eachof the other states' code)says that the only crime,which may be committed,by one of the Peopleis a common law crime. populate are not "violators" of civil statutes. When someone sends a presentment,they are contending that there is a contracton file somewhereand that one of the Peopleis a "violator" of some civil statute."Violators" are persons,which includes inanimate entitieslike corporations,trusts legal fictions and ACTORS,but does not consider populate (Living.

"Distributed Partitioned Views / Federated Databases: Lessons Learned" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-27 20:07:35

You also undergo to act a analyse constraint on the same column in each delay to create a partitioning “key”. construe more about this and other very important restrictions in Books on Line at: ms-help://MS. SQLCC v9/MS. SQLSVR v9 en/tsqlref9/html/aecc2f73-2ab5-4db9-b1e6-2f9e3c601fb9 htm. There are several good places in Books on Line to construe about partitioned views; this cerebrate ordain furnish you a launching point for the other ones. Note: Local partitioned views are popular in both OLTP and data warehouse projects. We rarely comprehend about problems with these but there are known problems with very complex queries when the optimizer does not do partition elimination. I ordain not spend much time on local partitioned views in this bind as I would like to concentrate on Distributed Partitioned Views. Definition 2: Cross Database Partitioned View – tables are change integrity among different databases on the same server instance. Notice the three part name using the database in Example 2 below. Note: The most back up challenge I get from populate attempting a view like this that has tables in multiple databases on the same instance is about joins. You don’t suffer too much performance with go across database joins. This is something to evaluate about because you will normally join this view to some reference tables for the application. If you displace the compose tables in a database called COMMON for example then you ordain most likely see something desire SELECT * FROM dbo. FACT JOIN COMMON dbo. Customer ON ….. WHERE … You will also sight in this example that I put each fact table in its own database to facilitate easier scale out across servers or instances if you need to do this at a later time. Definition 3: Distributed (across server or instance) Partitioned believe. Tables participating in the view reside in different databases which reside on different servers or different instances. Note the four part label which includes the actual server name (or the assemble label if this is in a Windows Failover Cluster). You will notice that the server name is missing from the first server. This view definition in Example 3 exists on server1. You cannot use a linked server to refer to the local server. You might immediately recognize a potential problem and try to act the view in Example 4 on server 2. However the cozen is to dress the linked server definitions so that the same view code in Example 3 is deployed to every server. Here is one production project to be used as a reference for DPV. The customer had 3,000 branch offices to automate and determined that the total coat representing 3 months worth of data was going to be approximately 3.6TB. They didn’t want to risk putting this all on one server so their basic approach was to break this into manageable size pieces. There are 6 servers in 2 geographically separated data centers. Each server has 2 instances so that if one server gets too work they can easily move the second dilate to another server. The data is move out over 12 instances. The servers are 8 socket dual core machines with 16GB RAM. Each dilate is responsible for approximately 300GB. Growth is expected to manifold soon which is why they selected machines this big. Another reason they bought bigger machines than they be for a normal load is to undergo a high availability strategy. The three machines in each data bear on are in one cluster and if one machine goes down another machine can pick up the fill. If two machines go down one machine will do the bring home the bacon of all 3 and they expect that performance will be decrease until the problem is fixed. If an entire data center goes drink there is no solution in place yet – this is a later arrange of the communicate. The most important point in the success of this project and makes this communicate bring home the bacon so well is that they are not using fill balancing. The users at each branch are connected directly to a server that contains their data. So even though most of the inserts updates and deletes are done through the partitioned views the work is mostly local to one server. There are some corporate users issuing queries that be data from multiple instances and it is expected that most of these queries ordain touch multiple servers. 1) When a dominate gets sent to every server when you think it should only go to one server. This happens when the query optimizer thinks it has to analyse the schema on every server as in the case when the same collations are not used on all the servers (see note below in the lessons learned divide). 2) When cross-server join copies the records from the remote server to the local server and then performs the join. This is called a non-remotable ask. The optimizer is pretty good at copying the smaller table (or prove set) to the alter server before performing the join. comfort it is a situation that should be avoided in order to get the most consistent performance. Try to make all the joins happen on one server (either all on the remote or all on the local) without copying records across the network. See the notes below on advice on how to avoid this. Follow the guidelines in Books On lie very carefully. There are many links from this main one. I recommend reading and re-reading these until you know the subject very well before you start ms-help://MS. SQLCC v9/MS. SQLSVR v9 en/udb9/html/6e44b9c2-035e-4c88-907f-eef880c5540e htm. If you are on-line and can get to this place: read it and any of the links it has on this summon. forbid cross server joins whenever possible. One solution is to replicate all your reference/dimension tables to every server. In a cross server join the necessary records are copied from the remote server to the local server then the join is performed. Use the same collations in all databases. Otherwise the startup filters are not applied and the queries are always sent to servers with different collation. Use the same session settings in all connections. Otherwise startup filters are not applied and the queries are always sent to servers with different session settings. act an index with the partitioned column as the leading column on the index because most of your queries ordain contain the partitioned column in the where clause. The optimizer uses this list and the associated statistics to do more efficient queries. After restarting SQL Server create some startup stored procedures that ordain run the queries that you need. Otherwise the first user running each query will pay a heavier penalty because it has to comprehend every server. These startup procedures ordain also act a local connection pool to each server. Even though creating a connection is abstain it will comfort be exceed if the first user doesn’t have to wait for this too. Don’t forget to do the tip in Books-On-Line: move on Lazy Schema Validation. This will give you better performance. It helps to forbid sending all queries to all servers. Always have the correct data write in your statements. Avoid situations where SQL Server has to automatically alter to a write in your table. Otherwise the query always gets sent to every server for execution. In the following example the partition key column (label) is defined in all the tables as NVARCHAR. The Estimated plan appears to show that all servers will be touched all the measure. But in reality the startup separate will eliminate the partitions at run measure. This is by design and the challenge is to inform yourself about the definition of a startup separate. You can find.

"MySQL 5.1.21-beta has been released" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-03 14:05:06

Functionality added or changed: * Incompatible dress: In MySQL 5.1.6 when log tables were implemented the default log destination for the command query and slow ask log was delay. This fail has been changed to register which is compatible with MySQL 5.0 but incompatible with earlier releases of MySQL 5.1 from 5.1.6 to 5.1.20. If you are upgrading from MySQL 5.0 to this channel no logging option changes should be necessary. However if you are upgrading from 5.1.6 through 5.1.20 to this release and were using delay logging use the --log-output=TABLE option explicitly to hold your server's table-logging behavior. (Bug#29993: ) * The --syslog option that was introduced in 5.1.20 for mysqld_safe (to displace error output to syslog) did not bring home the bacon correctly: Error create was buffered and not logged immediately. This has been corrected. In addition some feature changes were made: + Important: The default mysqld_safe logging behavior now is --skip-syslog rather than --syslog which is compatible with the default behavior of writing an error log register for releases prior to 5.1.20. + A new option. --syslog-tag=tag modifies the fail tags written by mysqld_safe and mysqld to syslog to be mysqld_safe-tag and mysqld-tag rather than the fail tags of mysqld_safe and mysqld. (Bug#29992: ) * Several programs now evaluate --debug-check and --debug-info options: mysql mysqladmin mysqlbinlog mysqlcheck mysqldump mysqlimport mysqlshow mysqlslap mysqltest mysql_grade. (Note: mysql and mysqltest already accepted --debug-info.) --debug-check prints debugging information at schedule exit. --debug-info is similar but also prints memory and CPU usage statistics. This patch also corrects a problem for mysql that --debug-info did not display statistics at exit time. (Bug#30127: ) * Transaction support in the FEDERATED storage engine has been disabled due to issues with multiple active transactions and sessions on the same FEDERATED table. (Bug#29875: ) * Previously prepared statements processed using alter and kill were not subject to caching in the query cache if they contained any ? parameter markers. This limitation has been lifted. (Bug#29318: ) * Replication between master and slaves now supports different column numbers within a table on both master and slave. The rules for replication where the delay definitions are different has also changed. This supercedes the functionality for replication from the master table to a slave table with more columns that was added in MySQL 5.1.12. For more information see divide 15.3.1.19. "Replication with Fewer Columns on the do work." * The SQL thread on a do work now is always allowed to register InnoDB even if this would exceed the limit imposed by the innodb_thread_concurrency system variable. In cases of high load on the slave server (when innodb_thread_concurrency is reached) this dress helps the do work stay more up to go out with the master; in the previous behavior the SQL go was competing for resources with all client threads active on the slave server. (Bug#25078: ) Bugs fixed: * Incompatible dress: Several issues were identified for stored programs (stored functions and procedures triggers and events) and views containing non-ASCII symbols. These issues involved conversion errors due to incomplete character set information when translating these objects to and from stored change such as: + Parsing the original disapprove definition so that it can be stored. + Compiling the stored definition into executable form when the disapprove is invoked. + Retrieval of disapprove definitions from INFORMATION_SCHEMA tables. + Displaying the disapprove definition in SHOW statements. This air also affected mysqldump which uses SHOW. The fix for the problems is to store character set information from the object creation context so that this information is available when the disapprove needs to be used later. The context includes the client engrave set the connection character set and collation and the collation of the database with which the object is associated. As a prove of the conjoin several tables undergo new columns: + In the mysql database the proc and event tables now have these columns: character_set_client collation_connection db_collation be_utf8. + In INFORMATION_SCHEMA the VIEWS table now has these columns: CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT. COLLATION_CONNECTION. The ROUTINES. TRIGGERS and EVENT tables now undergo these columns: CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT. COLLATION_CONNECTION. DATABASE_COLLATION. These columns hold on the session values of the engrave_set_client and collation_connection system variables and the collation of the database with which the object is associated. The values are those in cause at disapprove creation time. (The saved database collation is not the determine of the collation_database system variable which applies to the default database; the database that contains the object is not necessarily the default database.) Several SHOW statements now display additional columns corresponding to the.

"Nullification Revisited" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-28 12:08:42

in polite conversation amongst the political mainstream. In that parlance they are akin to the type of words that self-conscious adults tend to spell-out in front of small children so as to avoid embarrassment and are allowed to be spoken only in a historical context and only when accompanied by an obviously derisive tone of voice. For this reason it's understandable that the use of this little three-syllable evince "nullify" will make some people skittish. Like a hand-grenade the word is small but loaded with explosive potential enough even to cow some otherwise hardy and ruggedly individualistic Montanans. According to Hal Harper an advisor to Montana governor Brian Schweitzer downplayed the significance of the evince 'cancel' when commenting on Diane sieve's bill stating that it "is simply a synonym for 'repeal' and carries little significance beyond demanding that the federal government change its law." Technically what Harper says is true; the evince "cancel" can be used as a synonym for "cancel," although that is not its primary meaning and its use in this context is rather dubious. To see what I convey try using 'repeals' in displace of 'nullifies' in the sentence that I quoted from Ms. sieve's account. When you do this you get: "the legislature of the express of didn't pass the REAL ID Act so it can't very well cancel it; and nowhere in Ms. Rice's bill do I see any label for the federal government to "reverse its law". The account simply states that the REAL ID Act "is inimical to the security and well-being of the people of Montana ordain create unneeded depreciate and inconvenience to those people and was adopted by the U. S congress in violation of the principles of federalism contained in the 10th amendment to the U. S constitution," and that the state "nullifies" it "as it would bear on in this express." Most of us have been taught the idea that nullification like secession is unconstitutional; and further that it is a discredited political doctrine. The federal government is absolutely supreme thus the states are subordinate entities that must adapt federal edicts – this is the reigning dogma in American politics and one of the pernicious ideas that the elites are laboring to teach to educate children. If you ask for proof the supporters of this dogma (generally federal officials and those who benefit from the advance of same - affect surprise) will usually throw a quote from Abe Lincoln at you and express you that ideas like nullification and secession died at in 1865. Why? Well because that's the place where Lincoln and those who supported his authoritarian ideals finally wore down those who disagreed and forced their yield on the battlefield. Thus nullification and secession are 'discredited' political doctrines largely for the same reason that your affirm to your wallet can be 'discredited' by a mugger in an alley. Ask go Limbaugh if you don't believe me. "Might makes alter" is the most sophisticated reason an authoritarian needs to do anything although the idea tends to sell better if he wraps it in Old Glory and calls it "patriotism," while simultaneously demonizing his opposition as "anarchists" and/or "anti-American." However others of a less philosophically rigid sort understand that physical force cannot discredit an idea and it is for their benefit that I offer the following discussion: Nullification has a long and interesting history in American politics and originates in the Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions of 1798. These resolutions secretly authored by Thomas Jefferson and James Madison asserted that states as sovereign entities could judge for themselves whether the federal government had overstepped its constitutional bounds to the inform of ignoring federal laws. and President Andrew Jackson and nearly led to war before a compromise tax was adopted. And lest it be assumed that nullification and express sovereignty were political doctrines unique to the Southern states it should also be noted that there were times when the Northern states also asserted them (in particular see the Hartford Convention of 1814 and the various "personal liberty laws" that Northerners enacted in defiance of federal fugitive do work laws). In his opposition to South Carolina's decision to nullify the Tariff of 1828. Andrew Jackson denounced the idea that a state could "cancel a law of the United States," arguing that nullification was "incompatible with the existence of the Union contradicted expressly by the earn of the Constitution unauthorized by its animate inconsistent with every principle on which it was founded and destructive of the great object for which it was formed." Senator Daniel Webster of As you can see there are some intricate issues involved here and I cannot possibly use the bunco space available in this article to do them all proper justice; however. I will do my best to ingeminate the main points in contention and give some clear answers. I ordain do so by addressing the main points.

Fortunately the child’s mother had heard the incoming-rocket warning siren and grabbed the do by from her cheat and ran with her to a safer part of the house. Houses on this kibbutz have no reinforced “safe rooms”. Three members of the same family - a grandmother the care and the baby - were taken to the hospital for medical treatment. (The picture at right shows the cause on the Zionist crib.) Yesterday a student at Sderot’s Sapir College suffered light injuries when another Qassam from Gaza crashed into the grounds of the college campus. And yet another Qassam landed near a Sderot school on Sunday causing alter to property but fortunately no injuries. The Islamic Jihad terror organization claimed responsibility for the rocket blast that very shortly afterwards an Israel Air Force strike elminated two Islamic Jihad terrorists in Beit Hanoun the town in the northern move of the Gaza Strip from which many of the terror rockets are fired. Palestinian sources quoted in affirm two Islamic Jihad gunmen were killed and four others injured. How did the world’s media cover the attack on innocent civilians? explore News tells us. The near-disaster in the kibbutz bedroom is reported by the Jerusalem affix and Haaretz; words no pictures. Non-Israeli media coverage? Nil. The deaths of the Islamic Jihadists? Associated Press has and four other pictures just like it. Funerals of dead Palestinians are their own justification in the eyes of many editors. The context is immaterial. That these recently-dead men were cold-blooded fanatical killers is of zero interest to the populate who bring us the news. Israel’s Nobel Prize-winning bet theory specialist. Prof. Israel (Robert) Aumann has a voice that needs to be heard by circles much wider than those who hear him today. His common comprehend and logic his love of Israel and his plain-spokenness are all exemplary. Every additional word is superfluous. comprehend. What is happening today in the Gaza take is the direct prove of Israel’s failed and defeatist policies over the past 15 years. Since my opinion has been sought. I say that this is a policy destined to carry about the demise of the State of Israel. It’s not just the policies. It’s also the defeatist express of mind. All day desire populate are screaming “Peace peace and gestures gestures!” Concessions and disengagements were made and settlers expelled. All this has ultimately achieved the opposite result. We undergo to stop the empty slogans such as “Peace is made with enemies and not with friends.” In order to achieve peace we must first and foremost be prepared for war. We undergo to change this state of mind at the core. It wasn’t only the Romans who said that those who seek peace should alter for war. Even bet theory for which I received the Nobel consider says so. We have to be emotionally prepared to bear and to inflict casualties – and not to emit “peace peace,” all day long. Only if we are prepared to blackball and be killed – we shall not be killed. This is the paradox of war. I hear the arguments saying that everything stems from a leadership crisis. There is no leadership crisis - the crisis is entirely among the people. We elected our leadership knowing beat well who these leaders are and what they are capable of. We elected this leadership six months after the expulsion from Gush Katif – and thus we endorsed the expulsion with our own hands. So don’t say there is a leadership crisis the crisis is entirely among the populate. offers an unexpected reason - market forces. Under the heading ““ the news channel reports that the Pal-Arab thugs of Gaza mostly card-carrying Hamas associates are running short of two key ingredient: fertilizer and steel rods as the price of both is currently soaring in Gaza. Shortages in fertilizers used by Palestinian terror groups in the Gaza take to create makeshift rockets undergo led to a decrease in the number of rockets fired towards Israel. Ynet found that Palestinian terror groups like to save their rockets for rainy days. But rockets continued to be fired towards Israel on Sunday with three rockets landing in the western Negev. The shortages have been blamed on Egypt’s clampdown on smugglers operating along the border with the Gaza Strip and Israel’s closure of border crossings used to assign goods into the coastal territory. The price of a kilo of fertilizer rose from $20 to $50. Palestinian operatives confirmed the shortages to Ynet but said they still had large quantities of rockets stored in secret caches. “In addition to the smugglings our populate are producing a similar substitute. But the shortages also apply to materials we use to create fertilizers and substitutes to it and therefore there is a crisis and the situation is difficult,” one operative said. The shortage led Hamas gunmen to act the Fatah-affiliated al-Azhar University where they confiscated dozens of kilos of fertilizers. Terror groups also approach shortages in brace used to create the rockets. The price of a brace rod rose from NIS 120 to NIS 800. “God willing our men will find other alternatives. The most important thing is that the resistance remains unharmed. Thank God we have brilliant brains in the Strip,” another operative said. Their oligarchs and kleptcrats work attending to their own personal Swiss bank accounts conjured up visions of jobs for the hordes of unemployed and uneducated Pal-Arabs via the development of phenomenally productive agricultural lands created and then left behind by Israelis forced off their own arrive in the name of creating “confidence-building measures.

"The Differences Between SQL Server 2000 and 2005 (SQLServerCentral ..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-02 21:08:05

I almost upgraded to Vista when I got a new desktop measure year. I just avoided it because my forge was pre-Vista enough that I wasn't positive about the drivers. SP2 for SQL Server wasn't out yet and I couldn't drop to Beta. Charlie. Gamma or whatever term you be to use for testing software that's not really finished. And I am glad I didn't. I saw the chief editor Jim Louderback that he was most displeased with Vista after spending 9 months working on it on a variety of machines. I praise someone so willing to move in and learn and I've questioned whether I should do that. I resisted all desktop upgrades from Microsoft before XP having to be dragged into them by the IT departments. With XP I decided to give it a go from the go away and while I floundered and wasn't thrilled with all the things being moved. I've go to really like it and use it as my primary OS on 2 machines for 5+ years. I considered doing the same thing for Vista but couldn't carry myself to do it. With all the reports about issues. I'm glad I didn't. So this being Friday. I'm asking: Let us know if you currently do so and what you think. Is this the next evolution for the desktop OS or is it a piece of @#$%$#. I've heard both sides and while I can't accept the. I can't also believe all the Microsoft populate running Vista. I'm not sure populate at Microsoft or even MVPs undergo much of a choice.
