Lack Of Accountability-Libby Pays The Man

Sentence commuted, convicted felon scoots to take care of 250K fine JULY 5--On the same day that President George W.

"I think we will have to send a message of firmness, certainly of toughening sanctions," Sarkozy said. The existing sanctions were im...

"You should not beg others for your right. As long as you retreat and show leniency, the hegemonic nature of the bullying powers is to increase their intimidation. Right must be achieved through resistance." Ayatollah Khamenei said the resistance of Iranian nation is the cause of the strength of the Islamic Republic and the realization of independence and national dignity adding, "because of this resistance, the bullying powers of the world have concluded that Iranians will never retreat from the field of danger when they should defend the truth and their rights." The Supreme Leader said the continuation of resistance makes the ground ready for the nation to gain their rights in all fields including nuclear energy adding, "The free and independent nation of Iran is not to beg their rights from the domineering powers, because their experiences through the past 28 years have taught them that they can get their rights with prudent resistance." Ayatollah Khame...
