Steven Schook und William Walker (Mitglied bei der faschistischen NAAC, einem Albaner Lobby Mafösen Verein)

Und dann dieser peinliche Verbrecher Steven Schook, der frei herum läuft, obwohl er die Namen von Zeugen für den ITCY weiterleitete, welche natürlich dann in der Sache Ramuz Haradinja ermordet wurden. Und William Walker war nicht nur in die Iran Contry Affäre als CIA Mann verwickelt, sondern vor allem auch in die Ermordung des Erzbischofes von El Salvador: Romero!  Das dann noch mal ein Krieg angezettelt werden musste im Kosovo, war nur ein Abschluß der CIA Operations “ROOTS”, nachdem Bill Clinton den Kosovo Krieg im August 1998 genehmigt hatte.

Aber die Deutschen sind ja nicht besser: Neben Steven Schook wurde ja auch dem hoch korrupten Joachim Rückers die Computer von der UN beschlagnahmt, denn Joachim Rückers war der 1. Chef der Privatisierungs Agentur und ruinierte entgültig die Kosovo Wirtschaft,damit Einige Profite machen können. Und dann diese peinlichen Lügen Auftritte als UNMIK Chef und das permante Berichte fälschen, für seine SPD-Grünen Hintermänner. siehe die Ausführungen in der IEP-BND Kosovo Studie 2007 und die BND Berichte aus 2005. Und der peinliche Joschka Fischer Freund und Ex-Direktor von UNHCR-Deutschland darf seine verschobenen Millionien auch behalten: Jo Trutschler die normale UN Selbst Bedienungs Methode.

In Kosovo, Privatizations May Include Ex-UN Officials Schook and Walker with Ramush

Byline: Matthew Russell Lee of Inner City Press at the UN: News Analysis

UNITED NATIONS, March 23 — The Kosovo Trust Agency has passed from the UN into Kosovar hands, Foreign Minister Skender Hyseni told the Press on March 23, and it will privatize the “vast majority” of the underlying socially and publicly owned enterprises. Waiting in line, sources tell Inner City Press, are Kosovar Ramush Haradinaj and with him, two American former UN officials in Kosovo, Steven Schook and William Walker.  Inner City Press on Monday asked the current head of the UN Mission in Kosovo, Lamberto Zannier, if there are any rules concerning former UNMIK officials benefiting from the privatizations in Kosovo. Video here, from Minute 1:12.

   Zannier said he wasn’t aware of any UN rules, only “professional ethics.” He said that while Schook is a private individual, “we’ll also assess what he does based on that,” referring to undefined professional ethics.  The UN had claimed to have anti-revolving door safeguards.

   This case goes beyond the usual conflicts of interest. The allegation is that Schook passed information to Haradinaj, including about witnesses before the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia. Several ended up dead. Now, the sources say, comes pay back time, referring not only to the Kosovo Power Plant Project (and other political projects), but even further privatizations. And the UN has nothing to say. There was a previous quashed probe of Schook by the UN’s Office of Internal Oversight Services; click here for one of Inner City Press’ previous articles on Schook and on the KTA….

Secret Wars

One Hundred Years of British Intelligence Inside MI5 and MI6

Gordon Thomas

Gordon Thomas has established himself as a leading expert on the intelligence community. He returns here on the one hundredth anniversaries of Britain’s Security and Secret Intelligence Services to provide the definitive history of the famed MI5 and MI6.

These agencies rank as two of the oldest and most powerful in the world, and Thomas’s wide-sweeping history chronicles a century of both triumphs and failures.  He recounts the roles that British intelligence played in the Allied victory in World War II; the postwar treachery of Great Britain’s own agents; the defection of Soviet agents and the intricate process of “handling” them; the often frigid relationship that both agencies have had with the CIA, European spy services, and the Mossad; the cooperation between the British and Americans in the search for Osama bin Laden; and the ways in which MI5 and MI6 have fought biological warfare espionage and space terrorism.

All told, this is the story of two agencies led by men—and women—who are enigmatic, eccentric, and controversial, and who ruthlessly control their spies. Based on prodigious research and interviews with significant players from inside the British intelligence community, this is a rich and even delicious history packed with intrigue and information that only the author could have attained.

Iraq’s Unspeakable Crime: Mothers Pimping Daughters

By Rania Abouzeid / Baghdad

She goes by Hinda, but that’s not her real name. That’s what she’s called by the many Iraqi sex traffickers and pimps who contact her several times a week from across the country. They think she is one of them, a peddler of sexual slaves. Little do they know that the stocky auburn-haired woman is an undercover human-rights activist who has been quietly mapping out their murky underworld since 2006.

That underworld is a place where nefarious female pimps hold sway and where impoverished mothers sell their teenage daughters into a sex market that believes females who reach the age of 20 are too old to fetch a good price. The youngest victims, some ages 11 and 12, are sold for as much as $30,000, while others can go for as little as $2,000. “The buying and selling of girls in Iraq, it’s like the trade in cattle,” Hinda says. “I’ve seen mothers haggle with agents over the price of their daughters.” (See pictures of Iraq since the fall of Saddam Hussein.)

The trafficking routes are both local and international, and most often connect to Syria, Jordan and the gulf (primarily the United Arab Emirates). The victims are trafficked either illegally on forged passports or “legally” through forced marriages. A married female, even one as young as 14, raises few suspicions if she’s traveling with her “husband.” The girls are then divorced upon arrival and put to work. (See Iraq’s return to normality.)

Nobody knows exactly how many Iraqi women and children have been sold into sexual slavery since the fall of Saddam Hussein’s regime in 2003. There is no official number because of the shadowy nature of the business. Baghdad-based activists like Hinda and others estimate it to be in the tens of thousands. Still, it remains a hidden crime, one that the 2008 U.S. State Department’s Trafficking in Persons report says the Iraqi government is not combating. Baghdad, the report says, “offers no protection services to victims of trafficking, reported no efforts to prevent trafficking in persons and does not acknowledge trafficking to be a problem in the country.”

From the catwalk to Strasbourg

The political ambitions of Romanian President Traian Basescu’s youngest daughter are causing an uproar among bloggers.

By Paul Ciocoiu for Southeast European Times in Bucharest – 20/03/09

The name of fashion model Elena Basescu conjures up images of glamour and luxury but not necessarily those of political acumen. A year ago, the Romanian president’s daughter publicly misspoke the plural form of the noun “success”, sparking press ridicule. When she announced she would run for a European Parliament (EP) seat, the reactions were fast and furious.

Alina Mungiu-Pippidi — a renowned political analyst whom the ruling party is trying to recruit for the June elections and president of the Romanian Academic Society (SAR) — said she would never share a party list with the 28-year-old Basescu.

President Traian Basescu replied in an interview his daughter is “much smarter than you think”. Amid the heated public debate, Elena Basescu announced on Wednesday (March 18th) she was quitting the Democratic Liberal Party (PDL) to run as an independent but would rejoin it after the elections.

Bloggers shared their thoughts, which tended to be highly critical. “Elena Basescu as a character of [high] society I have no problem with. … But Elena Basescu as a representative of the new wave of politicians, that’s something I have a problem with,” said Andreea Vasile on the blog Inpolitics.

Mohui joined the critics’ choir. “I wonder what will she say to the fellow European MPs? Will she lecture them about fashion, strange haircuts and a 5mm lipstick layer (…)?” she wrote.

“Can one write about Elena Basescu’s candidacy for the European elections without flying into a rage?” Mihnea Marutza asks on his blog. “We have to wonder if she has the political experience and the intellectual capacity to represent Romania in the EP.”

Some disagree with the prevailing sentiment. “I believe Elena has every chance of becoming Romania’s youngest Euro MP. I am convinced Elena will raise double the necessary 100,000 signatures,” wrote Victor Roncea, senior editor of the daily Ziua, on his blog.

Decriminalising Incest Sparks Romania Row

Bucharest | 24 March 2009 |

A proposal not to prosecute consenting adults for incest has sparked controversy in Romania, with the Orthodox Church leading public opposition to the move. The Romanian Justice Ministry is considering a change in the law, so that parents, grandparents, brothers and sisters can be exempt from prosecution for incest as long as they are not forced and is based on mutual consent.

Furthermore, there is also the proposed legalisation of prostitution.

“We are proposing a change in the Criminal Code, so Romania’s legislation can become closer legally to some other European Union members. Furthermore, incest is more a problem of social pathology than a penal one,” said Catalin Predoiu, Romania’s Justice Minister.

Not all Romanians accept the Justice’s Ministry’s arguments.

“Every person with normal behaviour should be against legalising incest and prostitutions. This is an abnominal, sinful act, against any morale. Such people need not only medical help but also to know they should face prison for their acts,” says Lucian Apopei, a writer at the Lumina newspaper, edited by Romanian Orthodox Church.

At present, changes in Criminal Code are debated by judicial commissions from Romanian Parliament, and no date has been set yet for a parliament vote on the bill.

Currently all forms of incest in Romania are punishable by up to seven years in prison.
