Michael Jackson Bad World Tour Yokohama, Japan, 1987 WBSS/Working Day and Night/Beat It/Thriller/Bad 1280x720 HiDef Samples by maggic747 The Bad World Tour, was the first world concert tour by Michael Jackson as a solo artist, covering Japan, Australia, United States and Europe from September 12, 1987 to January 27, 1989. The tour, sponsored by PepsiCo and spanning 16 months, included 123 concerts to 4.4 million fans across 15 countries. When the tour concluded it grossed a total of $125 million, adding two new entries in the Guinness Book of World Records for the largest grossing tour in history and the tour with the largest attended audience. In the United States alone, where just 54 concerts were held, the tour came in as the 6th largest grossing tour from 198889, grossing a total of $20.3 million. In April 1989, the tour was nominated for "Tour of the Year 1988" at the inaugural International Rock Awards. The tour lost to Amnesty International, but nothing could detract from the fact that Jackson's first solo tour was the largest and most successful in history. At every concert (at least in the United States) Jackson made sure that 400 tickets were reserved for underprivileged children. These tickets were distributed across hospitals, orphanages and charities. Jackson also donated concert takings to multiple causes. More info can be found at: en.wikipedia.org

Senator Lindsey Graham and Senator Schumer discuss Immigration "Reform" - meaning amnesty. Senator Schumer states that 15000 illegal aliens cross our border every day and take jobs from America citizens. Senator Graham states that immigration reform (amnesty) will be a "heavy lift" this year and probably will not happen.
& receives applause from 'Scientologists'. This event occurred circa 1993. The definition of 'amnesty' used here is from Modern Management Technology Defined (by LRH) and the referenced HCO PL (Hubbard Communications Office Policy Letter) appears in the video.

- What are human rights? What are Natural Law / Natural Rights? This video briefly illustrates that the most basic of human rights began with the simple ideas of King Cyrus the Great. It began long ago to free slaves and ban slavery. Other such human rights are important today, and are the topic at hand in worldwide UN gatherings. Discussions also include the challenge of obtaining humans rights for everyone in every nation. These leaders have followed in the footsteps of King Cyrus. The first charter of the human rights monument, in the world, can be seen on the Cyrus cylinder (created by King Cyrus). Written on it are human rights regarding freedom of speech and language, no discrimination based on race, eye color, skin color and gender, freedom of beliefs and religion and so forth. Attention Please! King Cyruss DNA can be found among future generations of Iranians/Persian, meaning his great-great grand children. They are making it their duty to carry on his legacy forever; not just among themselves, but worldwide. Iranian/Persian people are pleased to see that great man, King Cyrus, saluted and admired. But sadly Iranian Persians themselves cannot enjoy the sweet taste of freedom in Iran. Their enemies, Mullah/Ayatollah savages, have dirty plans with the aim to destroy the Persian heritage as much as they can. And they are trying to replace this heritage with the Arab culture. Those radicalism cults use all the power they can get, the Sharia-Law and hard dictatorship ...
The terror threat level in the UK has been raised from "substantial" to "severe", meaning an attack is "highly likely". Home Secretary Alan Johnson sought to reassure the public, saying: "I have to emphasise the fact it does not mean an attack is imminent." He said the Joint Terrorism Analysis Centre keeps the threat level under constant review and makes its judgements based on a "broad range of factors". Mr Johnson said those factors include "the intent and capabilities of international terrorist groups in the UK and overseas". He went on: "We still face a real and serious threat to the UK from international terrorism. "I would urge the public to remain vigilant and carry on reporting suspicious events to the appropriate authorities and to support the police and security services in their efforts to consider those involved in terrorism."

Die Sicht internationaler NGOs versteht sich sehr gut unter der Definition einer altruistischen transnationalen Organisation. Auch die Struktur der NGOs ist durch regelmäßige Wahlen, Aktivitäten und Vorständen gebildet, dessen Finanzquellen aus den unterschiedlichsten Ländern kommen. NGOs spielen oft die Rolle der Kritiker, werden oft mit sozialen Bewegungen gleichgesetzt und handeln unter Namen wie Friends of the Earth, Amnesty International und Greenpeace. Das Internet hat erheblich zum kostengünstigen globalen networking beigetragen und damit unwahrscheinliche Koalitionen ermöglicht. Auch werden NGOs Themenfelder wie Außenpolitik von unten zugeschrieben, wo sie sich häufig in der Opposition zur offiziellen staatlichen Außenpolitik befinden. Der stärkste Zuwachs an NGOs wurde nach dem zweiten Weltkrieg und durch die Gründung des Völkerbundes ausgelöst. Begleitet wurde diese partizipatorische Revolution in den siebzigern der Bürgerrechtsbewegungen, welche die nationale politische Agenda veränderte. NGOs teilen die Fähigkeit, innovative, kreative und moralische Herausforderungen an die etablierte institutionelle Politik zu richten. Es wird vermutet, mit der Ausbreitung der NGOs sei eine internationale Zivilgesellschaft am Entstehen. Durch die Erosion der Nationalstaaten eine vernünftige Konfliktaustragung gewährleistete. Aktivitäten von zum Beispiel internationalen Konferenzen über medienwirksame Kampagnen bis zu lokalen Selbsthilfegruppen. Oft unter ...
December 15, 2009 -- ABC News // Creepy Chicago denizen Rep. Luis Gutierrez and a gaggle of other open-borders fanatics (including the obnoxious Rep. Lydia Velasquez) have once again have banded together to attempt to cram another massive amnesty down the throats of the American people..... this time during the worst recession in decades when the jobless rate is over 10%. Here Gutierrez spews the usual lies and platitudes at a press conference in DC. These anti-American clowns can't seem to bring themselves to call their favorite border-hoppers what they really are; illegal aliens (criminals by definition) and not "immigrants."

WASHINGTON (November 2009) The Center for Immigration Studies is releasing the third video in its series Border Basics by Janice Kephart, "Three Years of Fraud in the US: The Case of Manoj Kargudri." Following closely on the heels of Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitanos announcement that she is looking forward to working with Congress on comprehensive immigration reform, Janice Kephart explores how the agency that would be responsible for carrying out an amnesty of 12 million illegal aliens still cannot ferret out fraud in a single simple employment petition even eight years after 9/11. Kephart examines the case of Manoj Kargudri, an Indian national who exploited simple loopholes in our immigration system five times over three years to enter and remain in the United States. Kargudri was finally stopped at the San Antonio airport on August 28, 2008, by the Transportation Security Administration. He was not stopped because of his immigration violations, but rather because he had a one-way ticket to Washington and in his carry-on luggage were box cutters and a homemade battery strapped to his MP3 player. Luckily, he turned out not to be a terrorist, but the fraud in the immigration system allowed Kargudri to obtain a visa and enter and stay in the United States for three years before he was finally arrested and deported. Kephart concludes that while Kargudris employment fraud is largely solvable, the agency responsible for adjudicating immigration ...

Today, 18 November 2009, Digital Theatre makes available its third high definition downloadable theatre production - Parlour Song. Parlour Song, Jez Butterworth's sell-out production directed by Ian Rickson, opened at the Almeida Theatre earlier this year with a cast comprising Amanda Drew, Andrew Lincoln and Toby Jones is now downloadable exclusively at www.digitaltheatre.com for £8.99. Digital Theatre Co-founders Robert Delamere and Tom Shaw said: "One of the creative challenges of filming the Almeida's production of Parlour Song was doing justice to the beautifully judged performances. The writing, acting and direction are a combined masterclass in black humour, comic timing, and psychological detail. It was a pleasure to take on the challenge of capturing work by artists at the top of their game for the enjoyment of a wider audience." Ian Rickson, Director, Parlour Song, said: "Digital Theatre's exciting initiative promises to make theatre accessible and immediate. Capturing the alchemy of live performance is an enormous challenge. Digital Theatre set about it with a care and sensitivity that produces excellent results, and hopefully can open up the art form to ever increasing audiences." Michael Attenborough, Artistic Director, Almeida Theatre, said: "The pleasure of working with Digital Theatre is that they are truly collaborative, it's a proper artistic partnership from start to finish. In the past this kind of work has been vulnerable to artistic and financial ...
Can the World Trust Nato after it deliberately attacked civilians in Serbia and commited war crimes /// Amnesty International on June 7 2000 publishes a blistering attack on the Alliance, accusing it of committing serious violations of the rules of war, unlawful killings and - in the case of the bombing of Serbia's television headquarters - a war crime. The 65-page Amnesty report details a number of mass killings of civilians in Nato raids and states that "civilian deaths could have been significantly reduced if Nato forces had fully adhered to the rules of war". The report highlights inconsistencies and obfuscation by Nato's official spokesmen. Although Nato told Amnesty that pilots operated under "strict Rules of Engagement", it refused to disclose details of the "rules" or the principles underlying them. The report says: "They did not answer specific questions Amnesty International raised about specific incidents ..." Amnesty records that Nato aircraft flew 10484 strike missions over Serbia and that Serbian statistics of civilian deaths in Nato raids range from 1000 -1200 up to 1500. It specifically condemns Nato for an attack on a bridge at Varvarin on 30 May last year, which killed at least 11 civilians. "Nato forces failed to suspend their attacks after it was evident that they had struck civilians," Amnesty says. The report says Nato repeatedly gave priority to pilots' safety at the cost of civilian lives. In several investigations of civilian deaths, Amnesty ...

Amnesty International estimates that over 130 million women worldwide have been affected by some form of FGM. Whilst FGM is widely practiced out in the open by Africans of varied faiths, it is practiced in secrecy in some parts of the Middle East. In the Arabian peninsula, Types I and II FGM is usually performed, often referred to as Sunna circumcision especially among Afro-Arabs (ethnic groups of African descent are more likely to prefer infibulation). The practice occurs particularly in northern Saudi Arabia, southern Jordan, and northern Iraq (Kurdistan). In the Iraqi village of Hasira, a recent study found that 60 percent of the women and girls reported having undergone FGM. Before the study, there had been no solid proof of the prevalence of the practice. There is also circumstantial evidence to suggest that FGM is practiced in Syria and Kurdistan. In Oman, a few communities still practice FGM; however, experts believe that the number of such cases is small and declining annually. In the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia, it is practiced mainly among foreign workers from East Africa and the Nile Valley. One of the four Sunni schools of religious law, the Shafi`i school, rules that trimming of the clitoral hood is mandatory. Sheikh Faraz Rabbani states, "That which is wajib [obligatory] in the Shafi`i texts is merely slight 'trimming' of the tip of the clitoral hood - prepuce." Contrary to the WHO definition, he states that this practice is not "FGM, nor harmful ...
(UN PLEASE SAVE TAMILS FROM SRILANKAN ARMY ATTROCITIES ) www.timesonline.co.uk news.bbc.co.uk www.channel4.com "The man is young, naked, bound and blindfolded; a corpse lying across his legs. A soldier approaches him in what appears to be Sri Lankan army uniform and shoots him at point-blank range, apparently amused at the death. Its like he jumped, he says. The footage, released last night, appears to show what the Tamil community and human rights campaigners have long alleged: that in its final surge against the Tamil Tiger rebels this year, the Sri Lankan Army summarily killed prisoners. Channel 4, which broadcast the video, says that it was recorded by a Sri Lankan soldier on his mobile phone in January, when government forces overwhelmed the stronghold of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) at Kilinochchi. After the murder the video, taken in daylight, pans out to show eight bound corpses, all shot in the head and all but one naked. Voices in the background speak Sinhalese; as the footage concludes, viewers see a ninth bound victim shot. NGOs and overseas observers were also largely kept away, meaning that the timing and location of the video are virtually impossible to verify. Channel 4 said that the video was smuggled out of Sri Lanka in the past two days by a group called Journalists for Democracy in Sri Lanka, which has previously issued statements through the Asian Human Rights Commission. Within moments of the video being posted online, Sri Lankans ...

Planet called Nibiru or Planet X? April 1, 2010 Dear fellow American, Well, here comes... a new fight over a biometric national ID card -- and if you dont have the card, you cant work. Right now, freedom-stealing statists Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY), banding together with other statists from both parties, are scheming to sneak a massive power grab into a new immigration reform bill. This bill is a statists dream -- amnesty for illegal immigrants and a biometric ID card for virtually everyone else. Thats right. Instead of controlling the border and enforcing the rule of law, these statists want to control you. Thats why its vital you sign the petitions to Senator Kirsten Gillibrand and Senator Chuck Schumer IMMEDIATELY. You see, a National ID scheme -- complete with biometric tracking technology -- is embedded in the new Comprehensive Immigration Reform Bill being pushed by Senators Graham and Schumer, as well as other Big Government members from both parties. And if passed, the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Bill would require a new National ID card that would: *** Include biometric identification information, such as fingerprints, retinal scans or scans of veins on the back of hands. Depending on the technology used, the ID card could easily be used as a tracking device; *** Be required for all US workers regardless of place of birth, and make it illegal for anyone to hold a job in the United States who doesn't obtain the ID card ...
