The World´s Hottest Female beijing 2008 Olympians

The World´s Hottest Female beijing 2008 Olympians

These 11 women could medal in any aesthetic competition. They might even make
you almost care about the Olympics.

Logan Tom, United States Volleyball

Let´s be honest, women´s beach volleyball doesn´t have to work too hard to catch
our eye, what with all the bikinis and the bouncing and whatnot. But you add in
one-time youngest-ever volleyball Olympian Logan Tom and our eyes are glued in a
way that seems unheard of anywhere near the word "Olympics."

Ana Ivanovic, Serbia Tennis


There are more reasons to admire Ana than there are vowels in her name. This
year´s French Open champion and current No. 1-ranked tennis player in the world
will be grunting and baseline stroking her heart out on center court in Beijing.
And we´ll be watching. Oh yes, we´ll be watching.

Lolo Jones, United States Track & Field


With a background including French, Native American, African-American, and
Norweigian, this first-time Olympic hurdler is a virtual one-woman opening
ceremony, only watchable.

Almudena Cid, Spain Rhythmic Gymnastics


At 28, El Cid is considered the Brett Farve of rhythmic gymnastics, but we don´t
mind that her sultry Spanish looks are underscored with a refreshing lack of
underageness. Now we finally have a reason to watch rhythmic gymnastics. Of
course, now we have to find another sport to completely ignore (we´re looking at
you, Handball).

 

Alicia Sacramone, United States Gymnastics


A former floor exercise world champion and vault national champion, America’s
Alicia Sacramone seems a good bet to have gold draped around her elegant neck.
Besides all her enticing agility, however, she’s also a CoverGirl spokesmodel,
if this whole "gymnastics" thing doesn´t work out.

Amanda Beard, United States Swimming


We can´t get enough of women´s swimming because, next to beach volleyball, it´s
the closest the Olympic Games come to Spring Break in Cabo. Former World Swimmer
of the Year and sometime nude model Amanda drives that point home, er, harder
than the others thanks to the whole "sometime nude model" thing.

Sue Bird, United States Basketball


Achieving the rare triple crown of NCAA title, WNBA title and Olympic Gold has
made Sue one of the most feared ladies on the court. But it’s her fit physique
and careful balance between tomboyishness and femininity that has us longing for
three seconds in the paint with her.

2004 Olympic silver medalist and 2007 World Champion Britta Heidemann is blonde,
German, and wields a sword for a living. This combination would have us
scrambling to find a happy place if Britta didn´t happen to be a nordic goddess.

 

Erin Phillips, Australia Basketball


This daughter of an Australian Rules Football player put her athletic genes to
good use, tearing up the courts for WNBA´s Connecticut Suns. But it´s
blonde-bobbed Phillips’ curvy body and sexy down unda’ accent that has us
completely forgetting that her father could eat us alive.

Laure Manaudou, France Swimming


Olympic and World Champion Laure comes into Beijing boasting world records in
the 400- and 200- meter freestyle, as well as a fierce determination to prove to
the world that seductive French women in swimsuits are sexy, goddamnit. What
else does she have to do, seriously?

 

Victoria Pendleton, Britain Cycling


This prim English rose claims her interests are sewing, baking, and kicking
unholy amounts of ass on the bike circuit. If she can also sneeze pound notes
and will pint glasses to appear with the twitch of her nose, we may just have to
drop on one knee and make this one official.

Valley of the Wolves - Iraq

Valley of the Wolves - Iraq (Kurtlar vadisi - Irak) is a big budget Turkish action film


that takes as its starting point an actual incident between American and Turkish forces.

Turkish rush to embrace anti-US film

It is rabidly anti-American, and it is the biggest draw in town.

With a budget of $10m (£5.7m), Valley of the Wolves Iraq is the most
expensive

film ever made in Turkey - and it is pulling record crowds.

At one of Istanbul's biggest multiplex cinemas the blockbuster is showing on
five

separate screens and nearly all the seats are sold out. It's the same story
across the country.

"I'm back to see it for the second time already," says one student, waiting
impatiently outside Screen 10.

"It is anti-American, but we already know what they've done in Iraq. That's the
reality. Now we can see it on screen."

The movie opens with a real-life incident: the arrest in July 2003 of Turkish
special forces in Sulaymaniyah, northern Iraq.

The soldiers were led out of their headquarters at gunpoint, with hoods over
their heads. America later apologised,

but it appears the offence ran deep.

The film has turned out to be a sensation at the box office

At the time Turkey took the incident as national humiliation. In this film
the fictional hero sets out for revenge.

From then on, the action pits good Turks against very bad Americans, in a mix of
fact and fiction with a deeply nationalistic flavour.

US violence In one scene, trigger-happy US troops massacre civilians at a
wedding party.

In another they firebomb a mosque during evening prayer. There are multiple
summary executions.

And for the first time, the real-life abuses by American soldiers at Abu Ghraib
prison are

played out on the big screen.
Even the doctor - played by Gary Busey - is evil, removing human

organs from
Iraqi prisoners to send to patients in the US, Israel and Britain.

"Our film's a sort of political action," explains script-writer Bahadir Ozdener
at the production company's stylish

office on the Asian side of Istanbul.
"Maybe 60 or 70% of what happens on screen is factually true. Turkey and

America
are allies, but Turkey wants to say something to its friend.

We want to say the bitter truth. We want to say that this is wrong."

In a mainly Muslim country that has enjoyed a long strategic partnership with
the US, Valley of the

Wolves has sparked intense interest.
The US ambassador to Ankara was quizzed for his reaction to

the film on a major
news channel; even Turkey's foreign minister has felt

moved to comment on it. Both were anxious to appear conciliatory.





The film is unashamedly anti-American

But the film clearly capitalises on a wave of anti-American feeling that
peaked with the

Sulaymaniyah controversy,
but began to swell with preparation for the invasion of Iraq.

Middle East expert Cengiz Candar says the incident in Sulaymaniyah added deep
insult to injury in Turkey,

where there was already strong opposition to the war across the border.



Fears of nationalism

Cengiz Candar feels relations had started to improve. Now he fears Valley of the
Wolves will reignite the embers,

with all its talk of defending Turkish honour and pride.

"This film poisons the climate in a way that enhances jingoistic nationalism
among Turks," Cengiz complains.

"It's pushing society to be inward-looking and hostile to our allies and
would-be allies.

This kind of mentality will do no good for Turkey."
Part of the pull for the crowds flocking to cinemas

here is certainly the
Turkish actors involved.
The film is a spin-off from a cult TV series

from the same producers.
That show pitted the all-action hero Polat against the Turkish mafia.

But in
changing the enemy and the location, the team behind the film
appear to have judged the public

mood well. Back at the multiplex there was an
all-round vote of approval from the audience for the movie,

and general disapproval for the US. "Everything we've been hearing on the news
about Iraq is in this film,

" one woman says as she
emerges from the auditorium. "We condemn this war and will continue to condemn
it.

But I don't see America as our fundamental enemy," she adds.

"I'm really upset after this, really upset," an older man says, as rushes away.


"If I see an American when I get out of here I feel like taking a hood and
putting it over their head."

The film is due for release in Europe soon. Then it is off to the US.

A record breaker on Turkish TV for three seasons and now a phenomenon,


“Valley of the Wolves” is now preparing to shake the world with the movie…

The story begins with a true story: “The Hood Event”… On 2003, the 4th of July,


allied American forces come to the unofficial, half-secret Turkish headquarters
consisting

of eleven people. The Turkish soldiers suppose that this an ordinary
visit from their allies.

But this time it is different. In the changing
conjuncture, America wants to be the only power

“calling the shots”. To them,
there is no place for Turks in the region any more…

That day, eleven soldiers are deported with hoods on their heads with no respect
to their

soldiership dignity and in front of the region’s people…It’s all truth up to this point in the movie…



In the story based on facts, Suleyman Aslan is one of those eleven soldiers.

As
first lieutenant, Suleyman, can’t reconcile being insulted and surrendering with
his honor.

Therefore, he commits suicide and leaves a letter behind.



The letter is addressed to Polat Alemdar… Polat Alemdar is a very specially
trained Turkish intelligence agent.

He has attended several missions in the
country and abroad for a secret agency working for the state…

Because of his
last mission, he has no contact with the secret agency… Living by his missions,


Polat Alemdar can’t ignore the will of his friend who committed suicide for the
sake of his duty.

He is in Northern Iraq with his men now. To die for, if needed…



They found a different situation than they expected in Northern Iraq. They were
after the man who insulted

the Turkish soldiers but they couldn’t believe their
eyes when they saw the situation there. The people of

Iraq’s values,
personalities and history were completely being disregarded. The desired new
order was

forcing an unacceptable change on the people… The one who is
responsible for these unendurable

crimes against humanity is a special forces
commander called Sam William Marshall and who was

also responsible for the hood
event.



In order to carry out his plan, Sam W. Marshall raids the Arabian wedding where
everyone from the

region comes together. He kills tens of people. All are
civilians. Leila, the bride of the wedding, loses

her future groom in the
killings. Apart from the people who were murdered there, also a lot of people
are declared terrorists

and arrested.



Destiny shall intersect the paths of Polat and Leyla later fort he sake of the
objective that both

had ventured to die for…Sam William Marshall is now being chased by all of his sins, Polat and Leyla…

You will not forget the movie “Valley of the Wolves – Iraq” adorned with
incredible action scenes

and heartbreaking stories of humanity…

Is Going Abroad Worthy?

Going
Abroad for

Just

*One Extra Bedroom***

*From an Pakistan Software Engineer who was in US*

*As the dream of most parents I had acquired a degree in Software
Engineer and joined a company based in USA, the land of braves and opportunity.
When I arrived in the USA, it was as if a dream had come true. *

*Here at last I was in the place where I want to be. I decided I would
be staying in this country for about Five years in which time I would have
earned enough money to settle down in
Pakistan. *

*My father was a government employee and after his retirement, the only
asset he could acquire was a decent one bedroom flat. *

*I wanted to do some thing more than him. I started feeling homesick and
lonely as the time passed. I used to call home and speak to my parents
every week using cheap international phone cards. Two
years passed, two
years of  Burgers at McDonald's and pizzas and discos and 2 years watching the
foreign exchange rate getting happy whenever the Rupee value went down. *

*Finally I decided to get married. Told my parents that I have only 10
days  of holidays and everything must be done within these 10 days. I got my
ticket booked in the cheapest flight. Was jubilant and was actually
enjoying hopping for gifts for all my friends back home. If I miss
anyone then there  will be talks. After reaching home I spent home one week going through
all the photographs of girls and as the time was getting shorter I was
forced to select one candidate. *

*In-laws told me, to my surprise, that I would have to get married in
2-3 days, as I will not get anymore holidays. After the marriage, it was
time to return to USA, after giving some money to my parents and telling
the
neighbors to look after them, we returned to
USA. *

*My wife enjoyed this country for about two months and then she started
feeling lonely. The frequency of calling
Pakistan increased to twice in a week
sometimes 3 times a week. Our savings started diminishing. After two more
years we started to have kids. Two lovely kids, a boy and a girl, were
gifted to us by the Almighty. Every time I spoke to my parents, they asked
me to come to
Pakistan so that they can see their grand-children. *

*Every year I decide to go to
Pakistan. But part work part monetary conditions
prevented it. Years went by and visiting
Pakistan was a distant dream. Then

suddenly one day I got a message that my parents were seriously sick. I
tried but I couldn't get any holidays and thus could not go to
Pakistan.


The  next message I got was my parents had passed away and as there was no
one to do the last rights the society members had done whatever they
could. I was  depressed. My
parents had passed away without seeing their grand
children. *

*After couple more years passed away, much to my children's dislike and
my wife's joy we returned to
Pakistan to settle down. I started to look for a
suitable property, but to my dismay my savings were short and the
property  prices had gone up during all these years. I had to return to the USA. *


*My wife refused to come back with me and my children refused to stay in

Pakistan. My 2 children and I returned to USA after promising my wife I
would be back for good after two years. *

*Time passed by, my daughter decided to get married to an American and
my son was happy living in USA. I decided that had enough and wound-up
every  thing and returned to
Pakistan. I had just enough money to buy a decent 02
bedroom flat in a well-developed locality. *

*Now I am 60 years old and the only time I go out of the flat is for the
routine visit
to the nearby Mosque. My faithful wife has also left me and 

gone to the holy abode. *

*Sometimes I wondered was it worth all this? My father, even after
staying  in
Pakistan, had a house to his name and I too have the same nothing more.*

*I lost my parents and children for just
ONE EXTRA BEDROOM. *

*Looking out from the window I see a lot of children dancing.
This
damned  cable TV has spoiled our new generation and these children are losing
their values and culture because of it. I get occasional cards from my
children  asking I am alright.
Well at least they remember me. *

*Now perhaps after I die it will be the neighbors again who will be
performing my last rights, God Bless them. But the question still
remains 'was all this worth it?' I am still searching for an answer......
.........
.!!!! *

William Hughes

William Hughes is a
Baltimore author, attorney, educator and professional actor. He has been writing
political commentaries for over 40 years. His latest book, "Saying 'No' to the
War Party," is a collection of his essays, and photographs. It targets the
Bush-Cheney Gang, along with the powerful "Special Interests," such as: the
Neocons, Big Oil and the Military-Industrial Complex, which have helped to drag
the U.S. into the Iraq War. The book also makes current history come alive.

 

 

“Imagine there’s no countries...Nothing to live
or die for...Imagine all the people living life in peace.” - John Lennon



Thanks mostly to U.S. President Harry S. Truman and his “susceptibility to
Zionist influence,” Israel came into existence in 1948. (1) Humanity, and in
particular, the Palestinians, have paid dearly for his decision. The land on
which the Palestinians had been living for centuries, in peace, with a minority
Jewish population, has been gradually transformed into an Apartheid state by the
machinations of the Zionist Movement. That Apartheid state, in turn, is today
dominated by Israel’s Death-Mayhem-and- Occupation Machine. (2)



One wonders: What would the world look like today, if the state of Israel had
not been created in 1948? Its improvident formation seems to have set in motion
a chain of events, mostly negative, in the affairs of Mankind. In the movie,
“Click,” the lead character finds a “universal remote” that allows him to rewind
to different parts of his life and to change what had happened. If I possessed
such a “universal remote” and could stop President Truman from aiding and
abetting the establishment of an Israeli state, then, it is my speculation, (a
theory), that the following 25 propositions would probably be our present day
reality. They are:

 

1. The U.S. would not have any enemies in the Islamic World.



2. There would be no Al-Qaeda Terrorist Network.



3. Gasoline would be selling for less than $1 a gallon.



4. There would have been no 9/11.



5. There would be no USA Patriot Law.



6. There would be no Homeland Security Agency.



7. The Israeli Lobby’s “unmatched power” over the U.S.’ foreign policy, for over
four decades, would not had existed. (Its support for the Iraqi War was deemed
by the experts to be “critical.”) (3)



8. There would also not have been any Neocon ideologues; like Paul Wolfowitz,
William Kristol, Richard Perle, et al, to help, (along with other “Special
Interests”), to push the U.S. into an illegal war with Iraq. (4)



9. Iran would not be the next target for U.S. aggression. (No Israel. No “A
Clean Break” document. No Israeli Lobby. No Neocons. No need for the U.S. to
attack Iran.) (5)



10. The Zionist fink, Jonathan Pollard, wouldn’t be in prison for stealing U.S.
military secrets and hawking them to Israel.



11. The three million-plus Palestinians, who were forcefully dispersed from
their homeland, since 1948, by the Israeli Occupation Forces, (IOF), would,
instead, be living happily there today, in a free and independent state of
Palestine. There would be no Apartheid Wall, or as a corollary, a Hamas
organization. (6)



12. Jerusalem would have a vibrant Christian population. (7)



13. Rachel Corrie of Olympia, WA, would be alive and well. (8)



14. The 2,544 Americans who have died in Iraq would be alive; and the 18,777,
who have been seriously wounded there, would be fully participating in our
Republic. U.S. taxpayers would have an additional $295 billion, (the cost of the
war), in the treasury to use to serve the social needs of the people. Universal
Health Care would be a real possibility and Social Security would not be in
jeopardy. Iraq would be at peace. There would be no Gitmo Bay detention center,
or an Abu Ghraib Prison, or a reason for the Bush-Cheney Gang to gut Habeas
Corpus. No need for it to also employ torturers, or chemical weapons, or hold
detainees without charges or trial. The Geneva Convention would be respected.
The tens of thousands of innocent Iraqis, who have died as a result of the war,
would instead be alive today. (At the following footnote, see horrific photos of
some of the Iraqi dead.) (9)



15. The battle to save our planet, its fragile ecosystem, its fast vanishing
animal life and plants and to combat global warming, would be issue “No. 1.”
(10) Instead, we are perpetually bombarded with propaganda about defending
“Israel’s security.”



16. If there was no Israel, then the “five dancing Israelis” on 9/11 wouldn’t
have been arrested. They were nailed after “celebrating” in NJ, while watching
the Twin Towers collapsed. (11)



17. U.S. taxpayers would be $140 billion richer! This is the staggering amount
they have shelled out over the last 58 years to support the ultra-greedy
interests of the Zionist Cartel. (3)



18. The 34 Americans onboard the USS Liberty, who were slaughtered by the IOF,
on June 8, 1967, would be alive today; and the 174 others who had suffered
injuries that day would not have had to endure their horrific experiences. The
shame the U.S. carries for not having quickly defended the men of the Liberty,
and retaliated against the Israelis for their deliberate attack on the vessel,
would have been avoided. (12)



19. On June 13, 2006, the IOF killed ten Palestinians, including three medical
workers and two children, in the Gaza Strip. The Palestinian President, Mahmoud
Abbas, labeled the missile attack an example of “state terrorism.” Only God
knows how many Palestinians the Israelis have actually wasted since 1948; or
exactly how many refugees it has created, or how many homes, a la Oliver
Cromwell, the IOF have demolished. None of this would have been possible without
the dubious “state of Israel.” (13)



20. Paul Bremer, a coat holder for Henry “Iago” Kissinger, would have never been
appointed Viceroy for an Occupied Iraq. No Israel. No Iraqi War. No Zionist
Bremer as Viceroy of Iraq. (14)

21. One of the reasons the Warren Commission failed to properly investigate the
murder of JFK was because of Arlen Specter (R-PA), a card carrying Zionist. He
was then a “Special Counsel” to the Commission. He concocted the preposterous
“Magic Bullet” theory, which shut down any real conspiracy-type probe. It is
also interesting to note, that Jacob Rubenstein, aka, “Jack Ruby,” Lee Harvey
Oswald’s murderer, had close ties to Meyer Lansky’s National Crime Syndicate. I
believe the answer to who really plotted JFK’s killing, died with Oswald. In any
event after JFK’s death, Israel’s nuclear weapons program, which he had opposed
went ahead. U.S. aid to Israel also increased dramatically. (15)



22. There would have been no reason for a French Ambassador to refer to Israel
as “that shitty little country.” (16) In fact, the Jews of the world would have
been liberated to fulfill their deepest spiritual quest, as embodied in their
religion - Judaism. According to the highly respected Orthodox Rabbi, Dovid
Yisroel Weiss, “Zionism has hijacked Judaism.” The courageous Rabbi insists
that, “Zionism creates anti-Semitism...And we know...Zionism is the root cause
for the pain, suffering and bloodshed of the Jewish people...and, they, (the
Zionists), are the greatest factory of anti-Semitism worldwide...Judaism and
Zionism is not one and the same. They are diametrically opposite...We should not
be mistaken one for the other. And, we shouldn’t be responsible for the actions
of what the Zionists do...Now, another of the problems that emanate actually
from the Zionist Movement is the fact that they are encroaching upon the rights
of the Palestinian people, the indigenous people, who are living there. And,
this is terribly wrong. It is against every concept of the Torah...So, whatever
they are doing is totally wrong!” (17)



23. Thousands of Israelis have died attempting to build a nation in a land,
Palestine, which belonged to another people, the Palestinians. Their deaths
would have been avoided. (18)



24. The widespread spying on Americans, without a court order, by operatives of
the Bush-Cheney Gang, would have never happened. (No Israel. No 9/11. No spying
on U.S. citizens.)



25. On April 4, 2003, a European Union (EU) poll named Israel as the “greatest
threat to world peace.” (19) On June 27, 2006, the IOF proved the EU right by
reoccupying Gaza, savagely terrorizing the civilian population, blowing up their
electric/water generating facilities, conducting a mass arrest of their elected
officials, and also, without just cause, provoking the Syrians. In response to
the repeated shelling by the IOF of Gaza, Israel’s Prime Minister, Ehud Olmert,
wisecracked, “Nobody dies from being uncomfortable!” When he addressed a Joint
Session of the U.S. Congress, on May 24, 2006, Olmert received 38 breaks of
applause and 18 standing ovations from that entity of mostly lapdogs. This is
also the same Israeli leader, who, paraphrasing George Orwell's “Animal Farm,”
said that he had a “deep regret” about the effects of some IOF’s operations
which had killed 14 innocent Palestinians in just nine days, but that the lives
of Israeli citizens were “even more important.”(20) Finally, if there wasn’t a
Zionist-created Israel, there also wouldn’t be any need for a commentary like
this one!
