The popular belief is that Iraq started those fires. However, there have now been reports from Gulf War Veterans that American soldiers, not Iraq soldiers, started those Gulf War fires in 1991.
That means our government is hiring Halliburton to fight fires it's planning on starting itself...

Halliburton wins contract on Iraq oil firefighting
Reuters, 03.06.03, 8:31 PM ET
HOUSTON, March 6 (Reuters) - A Halliburton Co. (nyse: HAL - news - people) subsidiary Kellogg, Brown & Root (KBR) has won the contract to oversee any firefighting operations at Iraqi oilfields after any U.S.-led invasion, a Defense Department source said on Thursday.
KBR was widely viewed by many in the oilfield services industry as the likely candidate to oversee firefighting in Iraq's oilfields. Halliburton does extensive logistic support work for the U.S. military.
Vice President Dick Cheney served as Halliburton's chief executive officer from 1995 to 2000,
A possible beneficiary of Thursday's deal is oilwell firefighting company Boots & Coots International Well Control Inc., with which Halliburton has had an alliance since 1995.
A Halliburton spokeswoman declined comment and referred all questions to the Defense Department.

Subject: 120 armed FBI agents stage pre-dawn visa raid at Univ. of Idaho
Date: Fri, 07 Mar 2003 13:15:20 -1000
The following letter was forwarded to SEVIS, and is chilling testimony to the campaign of fear and intimidation on university campuses.
Information shared by universities through the SEVIS tracking system enable the INS, FBI and CIA to carry out such crimes. Send copies of this letter to
your International Student Services, and your administration! Put it in your campus newspaper! This raid conveniently happened in a small town
where it is difficult to build a strong movement in support of immigrants and international students. We'll keep you posted.
From: Prof. Elizabeth Brandt from Univ. of Idaho:
Well, yesterday was an exciting day in my small town. The FBI flew in 120 agents, fully armed in riot gear, on two C-17 military aircraft (I
think -- they were BIG planes) to Moscow Idaho (population 17,000 +/-) to arrest one Saudi graduate student for visa fraud. The raid went
down in University of Idaho student housing at 4:30 a.m. in the morning, terrorizing not only the suspect's family (he lived in student
housing with his wife and three elementary school age children) but also the families of neighboring students who were awakened by the
shouting and lights and were required to remain in their homes until after 8:30 a.m. At least 20 other students who had the misfortune to either know the
suspect or to have some minor immigration irregularities were also subjected to substantial, surprise interrogations (4+ hours) although
none were detained or arrested yesterday. Now, however, a witch hunt for additional unamed suspects who supposedly helped the guy who was
arrested is on.
The INS and FBI are working together using gestapo tactics to question the students -- threatening their immigration status (and
hence their education) if they don't answer questions which are really aimed at the criminal investigation. They have also threatened their partners
and spouses with perjury charges if they don't talk.
I spent yesterday working with our immigration clinic director and local criminal defense attorneys to organize legal representation for
the students who are being swept into the hunt for co-conspiritors. We have reached out to our entire area (40 -mile radius) to find enough
attorneys. Now I'm working on getting resources and support to them.
The Saudi government is providing financial support.
Reading about this stuff is one thing. Having it in your backyard is another. The international students at the University of Idaho are
terrorized and scared.

Marines May Have Broken International Law
U.N. peacekeepers recently spotted armed U.S. Marines cutting a fence between Kuwait and Iraq, an act which was reported to the Security Council on Thursday as a possible violation of international law.U.N. spokesman Fred Eckhard said peacekeepers who monitor a demilitarized zone set up after the 1991 Persian Gulf War between Iraq and Kuwait reported ``numerous violations,'' since March 4 ``by personnel in civilian clothes in 4 x 4 vehicles, at least some of whom were armed and identified themselves as U.S. Marines.''
...According to Eckhard, peacekeepers observed three breaches that had been cut in an electric fence which Kuwait erected after a U.S.-led coalition forced Iraqi troops out of the country in 1991.
Eckhard went on to say that the U.N. team raised the recent violations with the Kuwaiti government. The information was then sent to the Security Council in the form of a letter from the U.N. peacekeeping department. Eckhard said the breach may violate the Security Council resolution that set up the zone but that it was up for the council to make that determination.
The United States has amassed more than 300,000 troops in the region in preparation for another possible war with Iraq. In the meantime, it is pushing council members to adopt a new resolution that would authorize military force, as it did in 1991.

U.S. Expands Clandestine Surveillance Operations
The number of secret searches approved by Ashcroft since the 9/11 attacks is triple those authorized in the previous 20 years.
By Richard B. Schmitt for the LA Times.
The Justice Department has stepped up use of a secretive process that enables the attorney general to personally authorize electronic surveillance and physical searches of suspected terrorists, spies and other national-security threats without immediate court oversight.
Atty. Gen. John Ashcroft told the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday he has authorized more than 170 such emergency searches since the Sept. 11 attacks -- more than triple the 47 emergency searches that have been authorized by other attorneys general in the last 20 years.
A 1978 law, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, enables the FBI and other investigators to conduct intelligence operations under the supervision of a secret federal tribunal known as the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. Over the years, the number of such FISA applications has grown -- and civil liberties' groups and defense lawyers have complained that the law has become a tool to dilute suspects' constitutional rights.
Now, Justice Department officials are pushing the law's limits even further. Since the Sept. 11 attacks, officials have seized on a provision that allows them to launch emergency searches signed only by the attorney general. The department must still persuade the secret court that the search is justified -- but officials have 72 hours from the time the search is launched, and such requests are almost always granted.
Ashcroft's tally was more fuel for critics of the law who contend that it already operates in the shadows.
"That is a startling increase," said Timothy Edgar, a legislative counsel for the ACLU.

WASHINGTON -- The Justice Department has stepped up use of a secretive process that enables the attorney general to personally authorize electronic surveillance and physical searches of suspected terrorists, spies and other national-security threats without immediate court oversight.
Atty. Gen. John Ashcroft told the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday he has authorized more than 170 such emergency searches since the Sept. 11 attacks -- more than triple the 47 emergency searches that have been authorized by other attorneys general in the last 20 years.
A 1978 law, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, enables the FBI and other investigators to conduct intelligence operations under the supervision of a secret federal tribunal known as the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. Over the years, the number of such FISA applications has grown -- and civil liberties' groups and defense lawyers have complained that the law has become a tool to dilute suspects' constitutional rights.
Now, Justice Department officials are pushing the law's limits even further. Since the Sept. 11 attacks, officials have seized on a provision that allows them to launch emergency searches signed only by the attorney general. The department must still persuade the secret court that the search is justified -- but officials have 72 hours from the time the search is launched, and such requests are almost always granted.
Ashcroft's tally was more fuel for critics of the law who contend that it already operates in the shadows.
"That is a startling increase," said Timothy Edgar, a legislative counsel for the ACLU.
Edgar and others are concerned that law-enforcement officials are pursuing run-of-the-mill criminal cases under the guise of national security. The trouble, they say, is that defendants' customary 4th Amendment rights against unreasonable searches don't apply in FISA cases. Others point to the fact that the number of search warrants obtained by federal investigators in intelligence cases in recent years has started to outstrip the number in criminal cases.
The process "is getting attenuated from any kind of effective judicial oversight," said Joshua Dratel, a New York lawyer who helped represent the National Assn. of Criminal Defense Lawyers in a challenge to FISA last year. "The question now becomes, 'How much can a court tolerate before it reins this in?' "
Currently, the Justice Department is only required to report publicly how many FISA search applications it pursues annually and how many are approved. Several members of Congress have introduced legislation that would expand the reporting requirements -- to detail the number of searches of U.S. citizens, for instance.
"The bare numbers cry out for further scrutiny," said James X. Dempsey, executive director of the Center for Democracy and Technology, a Washington civil-liberties group.
Separately, Ashcroft announced the unsealing of charges in Brooklyn, N.Y., federal court against two Yemeni citizens, Mohammed Al Hasan Al-Moayad and Mohammed Mohsen Yahya Zayed. Ashcroft said the men stand accused of conspiring to provide material support to the Al Qaeda and Hamas terrorist groups through a worldwide fund-raising operation that netted Osama bin Laden $20 million.
According to Ashcroft, a portion of the funds came from the Al Farouq mosque in Brooklyn, a onetime gathering place for Egyptian cleric Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman, known as the blind sheik, and other men, all of whom were convicted in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.
The men were arrested Jan. 10 in Frankfurt, Germany; the U.S. is seeking their extradition. A Justice Department spokesman said announcement of the arrests was delayed for "operational reasons."
In a related development, U.S. counter-terrorism officials confirmed Tuesday that the second man arrested Saturday in a predawn raid in Rawalpindi, Pakistan, is Mustafa Ahmed Al-Hawsawi, one of Al Qaeda's top paymasters. Hawsawi was captured with Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, an Al Qaeda leader believed to be plotting additional attacks on the United States and elsewhere.
The Justice Department has accused Hawsawi of funding the Sept. 11 attacks by wiring more than $100,000 to the hijackers for their living expenses, flight lessons and airline tickets after they arrived in the United States. Just before they embarked on their deadly journeys, several of the hijackers wired the money they had not spent back to Hawsawi in the United Arab Emirates.
Federal law enforcement officials described the arrest as "extremely significant."
"This is a huge catch," one official said Tuesday. "Not as huge as Mohammed, obviously, but one of the more significant arrests we've made since the Sept. 11 attacks."
After he was captured, Hawsawi, a native of Saudi Arabia, initially gave authorities a false name and nationality, claiming he was Somali.
Several senior counter-terrorism officials have described Hawsawi as far more than just a conduit, portraying him as a senior financial operative for Bin Laden and the entire Al Qaeda network.
"Every time we can have any success in cracking the financial network of Al Qaeda brings us much closer to breaking the back of the network itself," one official said.

Pseudo spins hip-hop TV show on Kazaa
By Stefanie Olsen for CNET.
Digital broadcaster Pseudo.com plans to release a weekly TV show hosted by rap star Ice-T on the Internet file-sharing network Kazaa, in attempts to start a new model of advertising-supported television.Pseudo President Edward Salzano said Thursday that the show--a feature on hip-hop culture called "One Nation"--will be available exclusively to Kazaa's roughly 60 million registered users beginning in the next two weeks. People using Kazaa to trade video, audio and text files will be able to download a new episode of the hour-long show weekly and watch it anytime.
Free to Kazaa users, the show will be supported through advertising in the form of commercials and product placements, Salzano said. Pseudo.com, which is owned by New York-based INTV, has already signed on soft-drink maker Red Bull as a sponsor.
"We believe there's a lot of money that is going to people it shouldn't be going to such as studios, producers and advertising agencies," Salzano said. "But that money should be going directly from the fans to the artist, so we're trying to come up with ways to make it legitimate and affordable to do that."

Pseudo spins hip-hop TV show on Kazaa

Staff Writer, CNET News.com

Digital broadcaster Pseudo.com plans to release a weekly TV show hosted by rap star Ice-T on the Internet file-sharing network Kazaa, in attempts to start a new model of advertising-supported television.
Pseudo President Edward Salzano said Thursday that the show--a feature on hip-hop culture called "One Nation"--will be available exclusively to Kazaa's roughly 60 million registered users beginning in the next two weeks. People using Kazaa to trade video, audio and text files will be able to download a new episode of the hour-long show weekly and watch it anytime.
Free to Kazaa users, the show will be supported through advertising in the form of commercials and product placements, Salzano said. Pseudo.com, which is owned by New York-based INTV, has already signed on soft-drink maker Red Bull as a sponsor.
"We believe there's a lot of money that is going to people it shouldn't be going to such as studios, producers and advertising agencies," Salzano said. "But that money should be going directly from the fans to the artist, so we're trying to come up with ways to make it legitimate and affordable to do that."
The move flies in the face of the entertainment industry's long history of fighting file-sharing networks such as Kazaa and former highflier Napster, which are thought of by Hollywood as black markets for Web surfers to trade pirated music and film files. As a result, many major film studios and music labels have filed lawsuits against the networks, which resulted in successfully shutting down Napster.
Still, others are trying to find a way to use peer-to-peer communities for legitimate business and marketing because of the wide reach among media-obsessed audiences. For example, Microsoft partnered last year with film studio Lions Gate to release a trailer for the movie "Rules of Attraction" through Kazaa. Brilliant Digital Entertainment-owned Altnet also has developed a way to package content on Kazaa so that rights holders can receive revenue through the sale of products featured in the content, among other sales opportunities.
"There's a legitimate content market developing on peer-to-peer networks," said Ben Reneker, associate analyst with Kagan World Media, a research firm based in Carmel, Calif.
"Pseudo's idea is a powerful concept because peer-to-peer networks have such lucrative demographics in terms of media consumption," he said. "The question and reason that this may not take off is because the content owners are the most opposed to these networks because they see them as major hemorrhage for revenues."
Still, Pseudo's Salvano said, it's time for the entertainment industry to embrace new forms of distribution.
"The entertainment industry has to get it together and use the technology to their advantage," he said.
"One Nation" will feature the artists, culture and history of hip-hop, with Ice-T as its regular host. Salvano said that it's being filmed with digital cameras and encoded with MPEG-2 technology.
Pseudo.com was launched nearly nine years ago as an Internet chat company and began broadcasting original Web video programming in 1997. In 2001, it went bankrupt after failing to secure new funding. In January 2001, INTV bought the assets of Pseudo Programs for $2 million, including its patented interactive operating system, called Daisy. The system gives multiple producers the ability to publish Web video, chat rooms, polls, e-commerce and advertising on a Web site.

3 minority caucuses want Coble renounced
House leaders asked to repudiate remarks by N.C. congressman
Three minority congressional caucuses asked House leaders Wednesday to denounce remarks by Rep. Howard Coble, R-N.C., defending the internment of Japanese-Americans during World War II.The Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus, the Congressional Black Caucus and the Congressional Hispanic Caucus called on leaders to repudiate the remarks.
"As our country is engaged in a war against terrorism, and is on the brink of a war against Iraq, respect for civil liberties is crucial to ensure that we do not repeat the mistakes of the past," the groups said in a letter to House Speaker Dennis Hastert, R-Ill., and Judiciary Committee chairman James Sensenbrenner, R-Wis.
"To demonstrate that you have learned from the Trent Lott experience and the importance of getting history right, we ask you to repudiate Congressman Coble's statements as an inaccurate, misleading and potentially damaging view of history," the letter said.
The caucuses also asked House leaders to pass a resolution that calls for a "Day of Remembrance" for the internment of Japanese-Americans during World War II.
Neither Hastert's nor Sensenbrenner's offices returned telephone messages Wednesday seeking comment.
Coble chief of staff Missy Branson referred only to Coble's written statement of Feb. 10 in which he said, "I regret that many Japanese and Arab Americans found my choice of words offensive because that was certainly not my intent."
In a radio show appearance Feb. 4, Coble disagreed with a caller who said Arab-Americans should be confined, but appeared to defend the internment of Japanese-Americans during World War II.
"We were at war. They were an endangered species," Coble said. "For many of these Japanese-Americans, it wasn't safe for them to be on the street."
Coble said most Japanese-Americans during World War II, like most Arab-Americans today, were not America's enemies, but President Roosevelt had to consider the nation's security.
"Some probably were intent on doing harm to us," he said, "just as some of these Arab-Americans are probably intent on doing harm to us."
The remarks sparked protests from several minority groups and from three Asian-American congressmen: Reps. Mike Honda, D-Calif., Robert Matsui, D-Calif., and David Wu, D-Ore.
The Democratic National Committee has asked Coble to resign as chairman of the House Crime, Terrorism and Homeland Security subcommittee.

So I was planning on being on a plane all day today, but I decided to wait a day and rest up a bit before this week's SXSW Conference in Austin, TX.
I didn't get into the Music Showcase as I had hoped, but I'll still be there all week and I'm going to bring my guitar just in case any of you with gigs feel like letting a girl with a guitar sing a quick 3 minute song or two before your set. (Or perhaps in the middle of your party -- I only have two songs so I can't take it over -- and I need zero preparation or set-up -- just let me sit down somewhere with the guitar.)
Shoot me an email if you're interested: lisarein@finetuning.com.
Attention: Speakers and bands. I've got my camera and a relatively flexible roaming schedule. There's no reason why I couldn't roam over you're way if you'd appreciate some footage of your work. Just drop me a line.
Okay so what's in the kitty for today: Raving at the Feb 16 march, The Daily Show takes a look at the Shrub's "Faith-based Aid", Pelosi finally speaks up (a little), and Colin Powell continues to say close to nothing at all...
Plus some clips of the Senate arguing about the war and addressing the issue of the potential future (or lack thereof) of a Kurdish nation under American rule.
