BEING A PROPHET
It was easy being a prophet in the dark ages, people still believed in the super natural, and with little control and understanding of the nature, they always surrendered to the unknown. Today we have sciences and technology, we have knowledge of physics, and chemistry, we understand biology, we have been to the moon and come back, we even control the birth and the life and the death. So it is that even though we proclaim to profess a religion, out relation to and the fear of the supernatural is mininmal.
In the old days thus, it was easy for the prophet to scare people in to giving up their evil ways and to have them follow a moral guideline, even if it involved child sacrifice or anointing the alter and the doorways with the blood of sacrifice. It did not take much for people to fear nature, a bad crop, a small disease, an uruly ruler were all that it took for the people to become confirmists. To understand and fear the wrath of nature.
Today, however, even with the earthquakes in Haiti and Chile, which followed the large earthquakes in Pakistan and China, and a Tsunami in the Indian ocean with hundreds of thousands dead, the hurricane in New Orleans, the people don't seem to be scared of the nature, they have not become more pious and or less greedy. And the prophets may warn of the next upcoming doom, the world changer, the message yet falls upon deaf ears. It may not be the time to find a new "God" or a God anew, it is time for us to reconsider our priorities,our place in the nature, away from the TV, away from "Youtube" and the "Facebook", there is a life out there, "for real".

IT MAY SOUND CRUEL
02/26/2010
IT MAY SOUND CRUEL
It may sound cruel and insensitive to many, but as in this case here and millions more every year we have taken the right of death from the hands of God, and given it to doctors and technology. We need to redefine death and who has the right to bring death to a person when we won't let God kill someone at the appointed time, we are no longer extending life, we are prolonging the process of death itself. God is already not the sole creator of life, we have artificial insemination and donor sperms, and egg transplants. God can not kill because we have CPR, iron lings, and heart transplants, so the matter of life and death is solely in the domain of man. Only question remaining now is what the quality of life is remaining. With my deepest condolences to the Olbermann family, the pain and suffering of the old man does not seem to be worth it. There must come a time that the doctors must conclude past their own profit and religious motives and say THIS THE TIME. And the families should be told the truth that we are keeping a dead person around, that is before they become broke. The problem with the insurance money and the federal programs such as medicare and medicaid, families have tough time facing the truth while they are causing themselves and the country to go broke while they make the doctors , lawyers and the insurance executives richer.

WHAT IS KILLING YOU

WHAT IS KILLING YOU
Do you see a connection? From health care costs going up to housing prices going down, to the corruption and greed of the individual and politicians, and the moral destruction of society, there is one common thread, one main reason all of this is happening, it is called technology. Just when you were thinking that the science was going to save us all, the science is killing us, will kill us faster than you think.

YES, THERE ARE TWO PATHS, BUT
If you are to be honest, you can see a recovery and a return to the conditions of wealth, jobs etc is not only improbable, but mathematically impossible also.
The government is lying again, that the consumer spending keeps going up month to month, how that is even possible is not explained. The housing prices are down , the wages are stagnant, the unemployment is up, all of which would seem to indicate a lower spending, But still we are told that we are spending more money. we must have imported our statisticians from the Soviets.Can we trust the media? apparently not.
We are always told of the free and independent media in this country, but that is no longer true, our media are owned by corporations that are interested in making profits, not informing the public.

THERE TWO PATHS THAT YOU CAN GO BY, BUT
02/19/2010
THERE TWO PATHS THAT YOU CAN GO BY, BUT
So the song says, and so it is, there are two paths, both of them will lead us to ruin, a liberal path and a conservative path.
Time and again, I have mentioned my reasons as to why I see that this, our country is on a path to self destruction. I am also proud to say that I warned of it long before many late comers saw it coming, long before Lou Dobbs, Glenn Beck and Alex Jones, long before even Reagan had left the office.
I was still in the active duty army when Regan was reelected, I did not vote for him, he was breaking up the unions, he had re- done the tax code ( which had personally increased my taxes.
Look at it this way, say the Democrats are for abortion and for welfare, the Republicans are against abortion and against welfare. Now when you want to cut taxes and reduce spending while you stop abortions the poverty will increase, and so will illegal abortions, on the other hand if you keep feeding the welfare machine more and more poor keep having kids as they can get welfare, but still you increase poverty, and the number of the poor, thus neither party has a real solution.
Another thing is the military industrial complex, here the Democrats want to reduce defense spending while in reality most of the defense workers are unionized and have the best benefits of all workers in the country. The Republicans can't be serious about tackling the deficits without actually reducing the spending on defense, so once again both sides are lying about solving the budget, deficit crisis.

IS THIS MAN STUPID? OR YOU ARE?
02/17/2010
IS THIS MAN STUPID? OR YOU ARE?
On most days I listen to this jack ass on the radio, I call him a jack ass for calling him a man would be an insult to humanity.
My qualm with this moron is not the he himself an ignorant imbecile, as an American he has that right, my problem is that for three hours a day some one is paying him to lower the intelligence level of a large swath of our populace, whether for a political purpose or may be even just for financial exploitation of the unwary.
There are laws to protect the innocent, and laws against exploitation of the consumers, and surely one could argue that out right lying to the public is not covered by the first amendment protections, just as you can not yell "fire" in a theater.
My problem is two fold, one that the most of the other conservative media are also lying still, trying to cover their asses, ( Liberal media too) as to how they sat on their hands while the ship of state sank economically and morally, that they were all rooting for the looters and the thieves in all their guises.
Could it even be possible that his listeners never check any other news source? Are they so ignorant that they believe everything he says, if so then this man is dangerous to the country and the Democracy.
No doubt that he knows that most of his listeners (followers) are not rich or self employed business persons, quite the contrary they are lower middle class workers with little knowledge of the financial world, business, taxes or even money management, and this evil pied piper, frothing at the mouth clown, misguides, misinforms and misleads these poor causing them to make judgments that actually hurt the ones who listen to him the most. Some business owners who do not know how to run the business or ones who have a wrong business model or expectations are also easy prey, believing they would be successful only if it were not for the government, taxes or regulations.

GAMBLING VS FORNICATION
02/14/2010
GAMBLING VS FORNICATION
What else should I write about on this Valentine's day but "Fornication vs Gambling". And the topic is appropriate for my state of Alabama as there is a lot of hoopla around the subject of gambling good or bad.
There are two groups here, one group saying that the gambling, ( we here call it legal Bingo or even (( tongue in cheek)) charity bingo), creates jobs that our state needs so desperately, and that they are dong this just to help out the poor, the other led by our not so esteemed but steamed governor say that gambling is immoral and creates problems for the society. Could they both be right?
Let's see, I have previously proposed that no rich people ever create a job for the sole purpose of helping out the poor, I have even said that rich create jobs so that the can exploit the labors of the poor for their own benefit, this is not Marxism but John Adams at his purest.
Let me assure you that I am not naive there is good in gambling, especially if you are winning, it does create jobs, and does spread the money around, mostly towards the rich and the casino owner, so let's admit first that a bingo hall by any other name is still a casino, you go to lay your money down on a chance of winning or losing or there would be no fun in it.
But the question I have is this, why are we not crusading against extra marital- premarital sex when they cause just as many problems in the society as would gambling, if not more?
Or is it just easier to pick on just one group of "sinners" as opposed the majority of the people?
Isn't dating just another name for fornication as Bingo is to gambling? Or is banning dating and extra marital sex next on the agenda of the moral police?

THE WORLD IS AN ABYSS VII
While we look at and may be laugh at the crisis in Greece, we should be seeing our own future.
We are taught that the history is a lesson in the future, The Bible and the other "holy" books tell us stories of the people in times so that we may learn how to conduct our selves and to know what the consequences can be for "improper" ways of living.
The stories also tell us how to predict what is to come, some also call it karma. Sometimes it a national karma. Then how is it that so many of us who profess faith of some kind or another could be so mistaken. How did we get so stupid that some one could write a book that "the Secret" to get what we wanted was a condition of persistent "wishful thinking".
The truth is that human beings are basically lazy, we do not love freedom, or responsibility, we want things to be free. Time and again we have shown that we ill sell our brothers, our wives and our mothers and daughters for an easy way out. We are basically immoral, and do not like to be told to work hard, or even work at all or make sacrifices. May be that is why all religions require some kind of sacrifice as a proof of one's sincerity.

You can be mad at me for what I say, but I have company now, but before we go in to the details, just remember this, I was the first one who told you this.
"No matter who you are and what your faith or beliefs, whether you be a right winger or a liberal, Republican or a Democrat, the result is the same, we all get to the same place.
Was it all planned, was it by design, was it a conspiracy, in reality of today it matters not. We are "HERE", and that is all that matters now. So forget the governments protestations and promises, forget the faith and belief, they are not going to help.
Beck tells you the he started thinking about this three years ago, I have been telling you this for over thirteen years, "we are headed for a catastrophe". And you can do nothing about it. My book of poetry was dedicated to our social and economic problems, the decline of our morals and our society, what else you needed to know?
Does any one else find this a strange coincidence then that as Glenn Beck wants you to be ready for a revolution, and John Boener and his ilk want to mount a political rebellion, is at the same time that the European communist also want to bring down the system thru chaos and anarchy.

AFFIA SIDDIQUI IS CONVICTED
In the most under reported story in the American Press,
'Lady Al Qaeda' Aafia Siddiqui convicted of attempted murder
Originally Published:Wednesday, February 3rd 2010, 2:28 PM

"This is a verdict coming from Israel not America," Aafia Siddiqui exclaimed after hearing the conviction. The woman dubbed "Lady Al Qaeda" was convicted Wednesday of attempted murder for shooting at Americans in Afghanistan - and she reacted in typical fashion.
"This is a verdict coming from Israel not America," Aafia Siddiqui exclaimed, raising one hand and pointing up before being led out of the Manhattan courtroom.
"That's where the anger belongs. I can testify to this. And I have proof."
The outburst was hardly shocking; Siddiqui disrupted her own trial several times with bizarre statement and demands to take the stand in her own defense.
Despite her insistence she never grabbed an Army rifle and opened fire on her U.S. interrogators, a federal jury found her guilty of attempted murder and six other counts.
The 37-year-old MIT-trained neuroscientist faces life in prison when she's sentenced May 6. "Juries do make mistakes. Juries do go wrong" said Elaine Sharp, one of Siddiqui's lawyers.
"In my opinion this verdict is based on fear, not on fact."
Sharp said when she told Siddiqui the verdict, she asked that a message be sent to her supporters at home in Pakistan that she did not want any violent demonstrations.
The lawyer claimed Siddiqui's anti-Israeli comments were the paranoid rantings of a women who had been held in solitary confinement for 18 months.
Siddiqui was arrested in 2008 in Afghanistan after being caught with poisonous chemicals, bomb-making instructions and a list of New York landmarks.
She grabbed an unguarded rifle at an Afghan police station and started shooting at the Americans sent to grill her.
She was not charged with terrorism.

THE WORLD IS AN ABYSS V
And the economic down turn shall continue.
If you believe I am wrong then think again. I have been warning of this day for fifteen years or more, and as we have continued along I have explained the various matrices and the reasons for the way the economy and the markets were behaving in that moment. Four years ago,in late 2006, I told Chip Bailey on his radio show, and tried to show Joe Gorecki why the market's were wrong and the Dow should be at six thousand, markets have had no relation with reality for a while, but they were wrong then and they are wrong now.
A theory is just that, a theory, and it is only as good as the premises it is based on. Economics is not and exact science, and that is why we are here, well also because of the money is being manipulated by charlatans and the governments. Why is it that no Nobel winner saw it coming, they wanted the future to confirm their fantasies. Did not Alan Greenspan admit that he was wrong in his assumptions about the human behavior.
Look around you, look at the society, here and abroad, given the opportunity the humans will sink to the base, is that not what I have been saying,
Then here is the rest of your future. I f you are a working stiff, you have no money in your 401k, your retirement fund is broke, and they are talking about your social security start date will be delayed, there is no money left in your medicare fund either. I f you have kids that will be going to college, there is no money for that either, of course there are Pell grants and student loans, but good luck.
How did we ever become convinced that we could all get rich by spending borrowed money? And this is the same mantra that Bush was pushing for eight years and Reagan did before every body else. And now Obama is being trashed for saying the same thing, granted he is naive, that he was naive, I have said that much, I said it the day he was elected. He did not know what he was getting himself in to.

THE WORLD IS AN ABYSS IV
It IS my purpose to hold up a mirror to you and to MAKE you look. It is said that one is recognized by the company he keeps, I have therefore questioned our associations, with China, with Saudi Arabia, with Egypt and to a point with Israel among others. I have brought up the points about torture and about corruption and about our lip service to the human right, now what is your part as an individual, that is if you want to stop our journey along this road way to the abyss.
Be you a lefty crying about the human rights or a right wing anti abortion nut, what are you really? The truth is that Wal-Mart has become the biggest retailer in the world, and you are to be blamed. No I am not talking here about the cheap labor in sweat shops, you get cheap stuff from dollar toys to IPods and flat screen TVs thanks to the Chinese workers working for forty- five cents and hour for sixteen hours days, six days a week. Forget about the human rights and political freedoms, about limited access to the internet. We want free trade with the Chinese because our nations defense now depends on the Chinese made spare parts or our hi tech gadgets would be useless if not outright non existent.
Think about this when you head in to the Wal-mart on your next trip. In China, in most cases, a second baby born, alive and healthy, is murdered, suffocated or left alone to die, you are condoning this with your purchase of items made in China, just as they used to say that buying oil from the middle East is supporting the terrorists.
It could happen here, yes, it could and soon, soon as we are told that we can no longer support children born out of wedlock to women who can not support them, and to people who do not have jobs, think it won't? Think again.

I have brought up the points about torture and about corruption and about our lip service to the human right, now what is your part as an individual, that is if you want to stop our journey along this road way to the abyss.
Be you a lefty crying about the human rights or a right wing anti abortion nut, what are you really? The truth is that Wal-Mart has become the biggest retailer in the world, and you are to be blamed. No I am not talking here about the cheap labor in sweat shops, you get cheap stuff from dollar toys to IPods and flat screen TVs thanks to the Chinese workers working for forty- five cents and hour for sixteen hours days, six days a week. Forget about the human rights and political freedoms, about limited access to the internet. We want free trade with the Chinese because our nations defense now depends on the Chinese made spare parts or our hi tech gadgets would be useless if not outright non existent.
Think about this when you head in to the Wal-mart on your next trip. In China, in most cases, a second baby born, alive and healthy, is murdered, suffocated or left alone to die, you are condoning this with your purchase of items made in China, just as they used to say that buying oil from the middle East is supporting the terrorists.
It could happen here, yes, it could and soon, soon as we are told that we can no longer support children born out of wedlock to women who can not support them, and to people who do not have jobs, think it won't? Think again.

THE WORLD IS AN ABYSS III

THE WORLD IS AN ABYSS III
I should say something about the Obama State of the Union, you do know he gave a speech last night to the joit session of congress, and to the American public, I will.
As I said, the good news is that the world will end on 20 December, 2012, the bad news is that it may not.
The closest analogy to what we have here is this, someone breaks into your house and while you are watching he viciously rapes your sister, and you are saying , oh well, at least it is not me. Then he comes over and rapes your backsides, and you are miserable, but he hands you a lollipop, and you are saying well atleast he GAVE me a lollipop, and not that I am gay or something.
So what is the future of America, because that is the future of humanity, like it or not. Obama talked about taking away the tax breaks of corporations that move jobs overseas, sadly any one that wanted to move, already has, we have no auto industry, we have no sewing industry, we don't make air conditioners, fridges, ovens, bicycles, TVs, computers, hell we are even importing meth form Mexico, so what is this crap about moving jobs overseas, what the hell is left here to move? Hell we could not even fly a helicopter or a jet, or navigate a ship during war because our computtersystems in all of these are made over seas.
IN this global world, no one is loyal to the United States, no one is required to put the USA first, not the corporations, not in the least, so when I hear the working people say that they are Republicans, I want to scream out" you poor stupid bastard". But then again the poor stupid bastards are not all or just Republicans, they are also Democrats.
How do you define a "Poor Stupid Bastard", you can look up my article on the war on poverty.
I have two theories, or three may be four, first of all any one that is against abortion, or pulling the plug on granny should be made to pay taxes to support all the bastards (and otherwise) that have daddies that won't pay to support their off spring, and also pay taxes for keeping granny alive. If you are not paying for my upkeep then shut the hell up. Two, if throwing money at the schools makes kids smarter, give the schools all the money they want and they should be expected to produce only geniuses, if not school systems and teachers should only be payed based on their performance ( oh, BTW the kids interest in getting an education correlates with the the interest of the parent in educating the kid) , I did not see this Obamas's speech or the Republican response.
Third, if cutting taxes increases the revenues then we should reduce the taxes to zero and thereby get out of debt, Republicans should be required to come up with a rock solid plan based on this assumption, or be required never ever to mention the stupid idea again. May be Rush can prove this.
Rush also kept mentioning the Ayn Rand book "Atlas Shrugged" last summer, I wonder if he ever read the book himself, "" WIKI (please also read " Property rights and Individualism")

The characters in Atlas Shrugged are portrayed based on their productive effort, respect for rights, intellectual honesty, and moral integrity independent of their wealth or social class. Among the heroes, John Galt and Hank Rearden are from working class backgrounds, while Dagny Taggart and Francisco d'Anconia are from wealthy families. Among the villains, Fred Kinnan is from a working class background, while James Taggart and Lillian Rearden are from wealthy families."" Wealth in modern day America ( last thirty years or so) has been made by following more and more bizzare scams, money market and stock market manipulations, cronyism and out right lies and fraud and gaming the system.

THE WORLD IS AN ABYSS II

THE WORLD IS AN ABYSS II
So what is the purpose, what is my message? I do not have plan to save the world, And it has been predicted that the world will end one day anyway so why not now, anyway?
The prophecies in the holy books are not that unusual, it is not hard to see that if a few people, a government or a political philosophy takes over control of the resources, they could choose who shall eat or not and who shall live or not. We have already seen this in our own lifetimes with the Communist regimes and the Nazis, thus the concept of an anti_Christ.
As some in the right wing media have compared Obama to the anti- Christ, complained about his socialism and an up coming take over of control by the government (martial law and such), I had tried to brin gthe attention of the c0untry to such an eventuality back in the April of 2008, comparing the the situation to the one that existed back in the thirties. The economic conditions that existed back then have not changed, we are only buying time before the real disaster hits.
To compound the problem, once again, we have the laws on the book already that will make such a situation possible, that is the declaration of emergency conditions and the usurping the rights of the people to protest, of undeclared detentions, suspension of the Hebeas Corpus, these laws were passed in clear view of the nation and with the support of the right wingers and the tea baggars, these are called the PATRIOT ACT.
"
WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE RIGHT 05/17/2004
I consider myself pretty conservative on the social issues. My two teenage daughters are told, and made to dress a bit modestly, i.e. no belly buttons or panties showing, and no two piece bathing suits, even though both take swimming and karate, and the older is also in JROTC.
But seems to me that by default, the right has taken a cult mentality where the leader can do no wrong. What has George Bush done right lately? Be Honest! He has taken us into a war we can not win. He lied to us or was stupid enough to not to know when he was being lied to. He fell for the WMD charade, the nuclear purchase charade, he did not know what our military was doing in our prison camps, and can not see what his PATRIOTS ACT does to the civil rights and the liberties.
Is this nation now so far gone that we are supposed to turn a blind eye when the king is naked. Where is the out rage? This time it is not a bunch of dope smoking hippies that are against the war, but it is a bunch of do gooders wanting death and destruction on the people of the world in the name of the Lord and peace. And don't tell me that the support of the war from the right is only based upon facts, and the known dangers.
Why are we not holding Mr Bush responsible for the budget screw ups and the deficits, for the health care mess, for the jobs being created that pay no benefits, and more than anything else for a screwed up war we are in.
Or is it that right only consists of the people who sent money to Jim Baker and Jimmy Swaggert and Pat Robertson and Falwell and their ilk. We have no brains, we can not ask our president to tell the drug companies to quit pushing Viagra day and night. That he should make the oil companies pay windfall profits taxes, ( for while the working people have to pay thru the nose at the pump, his and Cheney's buddies are getting filthy rich)

THE WORLD IS AN ABYSS
I do not claim to be smarter than anyone, I do, however have a different way of looking at things and try to connect things that are not related to get a different view of reality. I see the similarities between cultures adn notice their differences, but I also see how and where we will end up in this world if the drastic changes are not made and made real quick.
I do take credit for warning others of the up coming market crash , the housing bubbles, the banking crisis So now as the world is hoping for a recovery, I am wondering how far do have to go before things turn around, and I know it won't be anytime soon, no matter the predictions of the government and politicians.
At the very least I know we are not going back to the world of the last few years. with unlimited amounts of money coming from no where, wiht leverage of forty to one and more and the real estate going up twenty percent a year or more. That not only means that the rich won't be getting richer as fast, it also means that the world will have billions of new poor, billions more at the edge of starvation and slavery.
As I have said before, we are paying out billions of money that we don't have, spending billions to train people for the jobs that will never exist, so why are we wasting money? Because it is not real money? Or because we don't want riots and people in the street asking for blood of the politicians.

UAE sheikh acquitted in taped beating
January 10, 2010 -- Updated 2134 GMT (0534 HKT)
Part of the evidence against Sheikh Issa bin Zayed al-Nahyan was a three-hour video of the alleged incident.
STORY HIGHLIGHTS
- Sheikh acquitted Sunday of charges linked to videotaped torture of Afghan grain dealer
- Sheikh Issa bin Zayed al-Nahyan, is a member of the emirates' ruling family,
- He was charged with rape, endangering life and causing bodily harm
- In evidence was 3-hour tape shot in 2004 of the alleged incident
RELATED TOPICS
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (CNN) -- A United Arab Emirates sheikh was acquitted Sunday of charges connected to the videotaped beating and torture of an Afghan grain dealer.
Sheikh Issa bin Zayed al-Nahyan, a member of the emirates' ruling family, was charged with rape, endangering life and causing bodily harm in connection with the nearly three-hour long tape shot in 2004 in the desert outside Abu Dhabi, one of the United Arab Emirates in the Persian Gulf region.
However, the court acquitted Issa on Sunday, ruling he had diminished responsibility for his actions because of the effects of medication his defense attorney claimed he was given. Issa had a "lack of criminal responsibility," the court found, defense attorney Habib al-Mulla told CNN.
"The judiciary system acquitted Issa based on the evidence presented by the defense that the sheikh was under the influence of drugs given to him," al-Mulla said. "That deprived him from his poise and caused him to carry out acts that were out of consciousness and that were photographed with the intention for later extortion."
Video: UAE trial verdict The tape surfaced last year as a piece of evidence in a federal civil suit filed in Houston, Texas, against the sheikh by his former business partner, Bassam Nabulsi. It caused outrage among human rights groups and in the United States, where senior U.S. officials familiar with the case said the tape delayed the ratification of a civil nuclear deal between the UAE and the United States.
On the tape, Issa is seen along with a private security officer stuffing sand in the man's mouth. As the grain dealer pleads and whimpers, he is beaten with a nailed board, burned in the genitals with a cigarette lighter, shocked with a cattle prod and led to believe he would be shot. Salt is poured into his wounds.
In the end, the victim can muster up only weak moans as an SUV is repeatedly driven over him.
"No one can prove that this videotape has not been tampered with," al-Mulla said Sunday. The only person who can confirm the incidents happened as seen on the tape is the victim, and he has not confirmed that, he added. "We deny the incident as it was shown on that videotape."
The defense did not just center on the medication, he said, but claimed that the videotape and other incidents from that night were all part of a conspiracy aimed at blackmailing the sheikh.
During the trial, the defense presented medical reports from experts in the United States and the United Arab Emirates showing that the various types of medicines given to Issa, when combined, "would lead any person to act in a very aggressive manner, losing his control and his behavior."
Asked about a Human Rights Watch statement that one trial was not enough to stop torture and restore the United Arab Emirates' image, al-Mulla told CNN he believed the UAE was "courageous" to hold the trial, calling it "a very positive signal of what the UAE is trying to achieve."
The incident allegedly was triggered by Issa's belief he was cheated in a business deal. UAE officials have said the grain dealer survived and has settled the matter privately with the sheikh, with the two agreeing not to bring formal charges against the other.
Al-Mulla said he is "pleased with the verdict as it was proven that Sheikh Issa was a victim, and he was not what the media tried to portray him [as]."
The Afghan man was in the courtroom, and the court issued him a "temporary" compensation of 10,000 dirhams ($2,722), al-Mulla said.
Nabulsi, a Lebanese-born U.S. citizen now living in Houston, said he met Issa when the sheikh came to Houston for medical treatment in 1994. They became friends and business partners and the sheikh recruited Nabulsi to move to Abu Dhabi to work for him.
In the lawsuit, Nabulsi claimers breaches of contract and fiduciary duty. A federal court dismissed the suit in June, ruling it did not have jurisdiction, according to online federal court records. Nabulsi has appealed to the Fifth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals.
Nabulsi told CNN in April the sheikh turned on him after he expressed concern over the Afghan's treatment. Later, he was arrested on drug charges, and security officers working for the sheikh ransacked his home and demanded the torture video. But the tape -- shot by Nabulsi's brother at the order of the sheikh, he said -- had already been smuggled out of the country.
Nabulsi said he was arrested, jailed and ultimately convicted on drug charges -- and was tortured and humiliated by UAE police, who demanded he return the tape.
Al-Mulla said Sunday Nabulsi was sentenced to five years in jail in absentia, agreeing that he was responsible for the drugging of the sheikh. Prosecutors will attempt to implement the sentence through Interpol, he said.
CNN's Caroline Faraj, Stan Grant and Saad Abedine contributed to this report.

PLAYING WITH FIRE
01/09/2010
PLAYING WITH FIRE
Once again, I have been missing a lot. Thinking more, but writing less, what's the use, people are tired of the bad news. And truth is a bitter pill to swallow. Same as to admit ones wrongs. And how do you know really if you are in hell, when you have been playing with fire and just got burnt.
Obama, the prince of the Nobel peace, is about to start the third fourth and the fifth war of his presidency. I don't agree with the right wing websites claiming that the Christmas incidence was all a conspiracy to take away our remaining freedoms and liberties, but then we do need more wars to keep this economy afloat, and that incident alone has caused billions in economic impact what with increased security and new equipment sales.
O.K. call me cynical, and I also don't plan to be traveling by air anytime soon. But stuff like this does impact military sales, and so called civilian employment by security firms. I always wonder why we don't just put the TSA and the other security people in uniforms as they do all over the world. And how the hell we get away with having contract security personnel to provide security for the CIA, and the State Department, isn't it what the militaries are for? why the charades?
And there, will Yemen be cheaper? easier? Probably not, and this is why. Plainly put , our spoken policies end up conflicting our deeds and the "other people" not as stupid as we think they are or should be. And it always comes back to bite us in the ass. We have talked about it before. Did we not start and support the Talibans to fight the Soviets, and not only that, for sixty yeas or more we have supported the Saudi regime that has brought the fundamentalism to the Islamic world and has been the biggest supporter of the radical Islamists every where and is one of the most undemocratic regimes anywhere in the world, then how do we go around pretending to be supporting democracy, don't you think the others know the king is naked. How long can we keep spending the money(that we do not have), and the blood of the American youth to support our misguided policies, we need to chose one or the other side, not both.
And then there is the economy, lets see with all the dog and pony shows and the claims of communism, how many salaries is the pay czar controlling
