Retired Lieutenant General Hamid Gul is a walking anomaly — a former Pakistani spymaster who loves publicity.

A hawk-like man with dark piercing eyes, he is self-confident to the point of condescending arrogance. Well-educated and outspoken, he thrives on Pakistan’s infatuation with grand conspiracy theories. And, if the WikiLeaks Afghanistan war logs are to be believed, he is also behind a secret network helping the Taliban and al-Qaeda strike at U.S. forces.

An architect of Afghanistan’s jihad against the Soviet Union in the 1980s, he used financial and logistical support from the CIA and Saudi Arabia to mould the mujahedeen into a victorious fighting force.

Now, he is fiercely anti-American, publicly defends al-Qaeda and the Taliban and condemns Washington for waging war on all Muslims.

In his final years in the army, Gen. Gul decorated his desk with a chunk of the Berlin Wall that was presented to him by West Germany’s intelligence agency the BND. It had a small plaque that read, “With deepest respects to General Hamid Gul, who helped deliver the first blow — 1989.”

Nowadays, the 74-year-old former tank commander is regarded by many as one of the world’s most dangerous men.

U.S. military documents released this week by the whistle-blowing website WikiLeaks portray Gen. Gul as head of a secret Pakistani intelligence network that arms, supports and directs the Taliban while helping co-ordinate insurgent attacks on U.S. and foreign troops in Afghanistan.

One document, dated mid-December 2006, says Gen. Gul met with “senior members of the Taliban leadership in Nowshara, Pakistan,” and announced he had dispatched three insurgents with improvised explosive devices to Kabul to carry out attacks during the Muslim celebration of Eid.

“Gul instructed two of the individuals to plant IEDs along the roads frequently utilized by Government of Afghanistan and ISAF vehicles,” the report says. “The third individual is to carry out a suicide attack utilizing a suicide vest” against Afghan government and NATO targets.

“Make the snow warm in Kabul,” Gen. Gul told the bombers, the report says. “Set Kabul aflame.”

Another report, dated Jan. 5, 2009, says Gen. Gul attended a meeting of insurgents in South Waziristan that was held to plot revenge attacks for the death of a Taliban commander killed in a U.S. drone attack.

“Three unidentified older Arab males, who were considered important” also attended. They were probably top al-Qaeda leaders, since they had “approximately 20 Arab bodyguards.”

There has been speculation for years that Gen. Gul was working tirelessly in retirement to maintain his intelligence contacts with insurgent networks in Kashmir and Afghanistan.

In the past, India claimed it was Gen. Gul who unleashed the forces of Islamic fundamentalism to wage a proxy terrorist war in Indian-occupied Kashmir in the 1990s.

India also claims Gen. Gul was behind the 2008 Mumbai hotel massacre by the Pakistani terror group Lashkar-e-Taiba and say he played a major role in the 2008 bombing of India’s embassy in Kabul.

After the Kabul embassy bombing the United States tried to have Gen. Gul listed by the United Nations as a supporter of Islamic terrorism.

A year before the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, then U.S. counter-terrorism czar Richard Clarke claimed a “former head of Pakistan’s ISI,” widely believed to be Gen. Gul, had given the Taliban advance warning in 1998 of U.S. attempts to assassinate Osama bin Laden with a barrage of missile strikes, after bomb attacks on U.S. embassies in Africa.

The Pakistani spymaster was rumoured to have warned bin Laden his satellite phone was being used to track him.

Gen. Gul retired from the army in 1991, after being denied a chance to become the head of the armed forces and forced to step down as the country’s spy chief by then-prime minister Benazir Bhutto.

Ever since, he has been actively involved with radical Islamist groups and served as a “strategic advisor” to a six-party coalition of religious extremists that now serves as Pakistan’s main opposition.

He regularly appears as a pundit on television talk shows and is frequently consulted as a supporter of the Taliban and al-Qaeda.

In recent years, Gen. Gul has claimed the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks in New York and Washington, were “inside jobs” carried out by Israel’s Mossad and elements of the CIA.

He has also fingered the U.S. for carrying out Ms. Bhutto’s assassination in 2007.

Always impeccably dressed, Gen. Gul frequently entertains foreign reporters at his home, in a gated compound for retired officers near army headquarters in Rawalpindi. This week, after the WikiLeaks accusations were made public, he took delight in dismissing the claims as “fiction and nothing else.”

“If this is the condition of U.S. intelligence, then I am afraid it is no wonder they are losing in Afghanistan,” he said.

“I am their favourite whipping boy and it is not the first time that such allegations are made against me. It is almost two decades since I retired from the ISI, but they keep accusing me of everything.”

WikiLeaks

Collateral Murder

Overview

Update: On July 6, 2010, Private Bradley Manning, a 22 year old intelligence analyst with the United States Army in Baghdad, was charged with disclosing this video (after allegedly speaking to an unfaithful journalist). The whistleblower behind the Pentagon Papers, Daniel Ellsberg, has called Mr. Manning a 'hero'. He is currently imprisoned in Kuwait. The Apache crew and those behind the cover up depicted in the video have yet to be charged. To assist Private Manning, please see bradleymanning.org.

5th April 2010 10:44 EST WikiLeaks has released a classified US military video depicting the indiscriminate slaying of over a dozen people in the Iraqi suburb of New Baghdad -- including two Reuters news staff.

Reuters has been trying to obtain the video through the Freedom of Information Act, without success since the time of the attack. The video, shot from an Apache helicopter gun-sight, clearly shows the unprovoked slaying of a wounded Reuters employee and his rescuers. Two young children involved in the rescue were also seriously wounded.

Short version


Full version


The military did not reveal how the Reuters staff were killed, and stated that they did not know how the children were injured.

After demands by Reuters, the incident was investigated and the U.S. military concluded that the actions of the soldiers were in accordance with the law of armed conflict and its own "Rules of Engagement".

Consequently, WikiLeaks has released the classified Rules of Engagement for 2006, 2007 and 2008, revealing these rules before, during, and after the killings.

WikiLeaks has released both the original 38 minutes video and a shorter version with an initial analysis. Subtitles have been added to both versions from the radio transmissions.

WikiLeaks obtained this video as well as supporting documents from a number of military whistleblowers. WikiLeaks goes to great lengths to verify the authenticity of the information it receives. We have analyzed the information about this incident from a variety of source material. We have spoken to witnesses and journalists directly involved in the incident.

WikiLeaks wants to ensure that all the leaked information it receives gets the attention it deserves. In this particular case, some of the people killed were journalists that were simply doing their jobs: putting their lives at risk in order to report on war. Iraq is a very dangerous place for journalists: from 2003- 2009, 139 journalists were killed while doing their work.

Global Economic Prospects Summer 2010

Global Economic Prospects
Summer 2010


Key messages
The global recovery is moving into a more mature phase led by growing domestic demand.

However, conditions in Europe may derail the recovery.
A more rapid adjustment of fiscal policy would be better for developing countries.
A decline in aid flows could have serious consequences for the poorest countries.
More...
Global outlook summary table
A table summarizing the forecast. More detailed information is available here.

Debt crisis
So far, the uncertainty about the sustainability of fiscal positions in several high-income European countries (EU-5) has had limited impacts on developing countries. While stock markets have declined, spreads and credit default swaps for most countries have remained stable. So far industrial production and trade continue to expand rapidly. More...

Financial markets
Financial markets have recovered from their lows in 2009, but conditions remain tight and banks may be exposed to debt in EU-5 countries. Bond issuance declined sharply in May. International capital flows to developing countries are projected to reach about 3.5 percent of their GDP in 2012, up from 2.5 percent in 2009. See also the topical annex on Financial market developments. More...

Medium-term prospects
Growth prospects are very uncertain because of the situation in Europe. Nevertheless, developing countries are projected to lead the recovery with growth rates around 6 percent. High-income countries growth will accelerate from about 2-2.3 percent in 2010 to between 2.3 and 2,7 percent in 2012.
Regional annexes touch on prospects in:
These should all be links.

East Asia & the Pacific
Europe & Central Asia
Latin America & the Caribbean
Middle-East & North Africa
South Asia
Sub-Saharan Africa
More...

Risks and policy impacts
Should the crisis in Europe worsen, global growth could be, lower by between as much as 0.7 percentage points and in the case of a crisis, a double-dip recession in high-income countries may not be avoided. An aggressive fiscal consolidation response would prove to be win-win for both high-income and developing countries. Long-term growth and poverty reduction in low-income countries could be affected if bilateral aid flows fall as they have during previous recessions. More...

Concluding remarks
Policy in high-income countries should focus on reducing the uncertainty surrounding the Greek debt issue. Growth in developing (and high-income) countries would benefit from a more rapid consolidation. Poverty reduction in low-income countries could be impeded if aid flows are cut and countries are forced to cut back on infrastructure and human capital investment. More...

Global Econ 101: An Intro to the Global Economy

The first step in becoming active on global economic issues is understanding how the global economy works. Who are the players, how do they make decisions, who benefits, and who suffers.

Global Rulemakers

The WTO
The World Trade Organization is the most powerful governing body on the planet—yet it is designed to benefit corporations while ignoring the needs of communities and the environment.
World Bank and the IMF
The World Bank and International Monetary Fund are the world's biggest financial lenders, masked as development organizations. Problem is, they are also the world's biggest loan sharks, keeping poor countries impoverished while helping multinational corporations exploit nations' natural resources.

Trade Agreements

Past “free trade” agreements like NAFTA have bankrupted farmers, resulted in the loss of millions of jobs, made life-saving medicines unaffordable for people in poor countries, and lowered health, safety and environmental standards.

Alternatives

Not only is a people's globalization possible, it is already here! Help us to continue promoting a global economy of the triple bottom line: environmental, social, and economic sustainability.

Rights-Based Organizing

If you're tired of battling just to slow down the rate of destruction to your community, environment, health and quality of life, and you want to put your energy into stopping the damage, not limiting it, then it's time to organize your neighbors to withdraw consent to the harm, and then assert your community rights and self-governing authority.

New Communication Experience for Mobile Users in Indonesia!
June 14, 2010 on 8:03 pm | In Mobile, Uncategorized | Add a Comment
Today, we are thrilled to announce the availability of the Yahoo! Messenger One app in beta at CommunicAsia 2010. Yahoo! Messenger One was conceived on the premise of wanting to create an integrated and easily accessible communication experience for new-to-net mobile users, offering them a central point for their communication and content needs while on the go.
The beta launch of Yahoo! Messenger One represents a refreshing approach to all your communications needs. How so? Simply put, this all-in-one universal address book and communications hub enables you to find, connect and communicate with friends the way you want, whether it’s email, instant messaging or SMS – it’s your choice! What’s more, it’s packed with a slew of user benefits including:
Mobile registration: You can sign up for a new Yahoo! ID right from within Yahoo! Messenger One app. No PC/laptop needed. How convenient is that!
Unified inbox: Now you have all your email, IM and SMS conversations in one easy-to-use-and-access inbox, you can always keep track of all your conversations, hassle free.
Native address book syncing: Simply upload your contacts to Yahoo! so you can access them from one place, anywhere.
Message archive and search: With all your conversations stored in the cloud, you will never have to worry about losing your messages or having to delete them ever again.
IM and SMS chats: You can still chat with you contacts even if they are not on Yahoo! by using SMS (presently supported for Indonesian and US mobile contacts only).
News Content: Lets you always stay up to date with the latest news, and you can share articles with your friends.
Yahoo! Messenger One will be rolled out first in Indonesia and available in Bahasa Indonesian (the local language). Indonesia does not require any introduction. Still, this is the world’s fourth-most populous country with more than 230 million people and about 30 million Internet users. With its mobile phone customer base having more than doubled to 165 million users in less than three years, and with popular devices like Blackberry smartphones and low cost clones growing at a fast rate, it is not all that surprising mobile users have outpaced active Internet users by more than 5-to-1. Clearly this is a nation on the move and we are bringing Yahoo! Messenger One right to the users.
Yahoo! Messenger One is currently available for Blackberry 9000, Blackberry 9700, Blackberry 8900, and Blackberry 9630 devices. Just direct your mobile browser to http://m.yahoo.com/one to download the app and try it out. In future releases, Yahoo! Messenger One is expected to support additional devices and platforms. We’d also love to get your feedback so we can keep innovating and improving the user experience.
