This time without a hair comb, lets take them by surprise!

In another development I went swimming with the kids today, only a few hours but how sleepy I was afterwards. And I didn't even dive or stuff like that, may be I must indulge into a more healthy lifestyle again. May be I must start smoking the Afghan smoke again, ah the Afghan smoke... Well, like promised a long time ago I stopped smoking this particular Afghan smoke. Now for 53 or 54 weeks even, so according to American anti drugs standards I sure must be a saint by now! 

Hey my evil drug lords from the Afghan landscape and similar parts of this world, how is the '500 dollar a kilo' policy going? I hope it's going fine because it is important to lay a bit of money at relatively poor farmers, I didn't check the Media files on this because I simply trust you on this. With the Afghan poppy production it is all very simple; It would be wise if the (big) international drug lords would copycat the Western way of subsidizing agriculture stuff (what is produced too much is simply destroyed, fight them with their own weapons!)

__________________________

In yet another development the US dollar is still very 'bearish' as they say it. Sentiment is still heavy against the American dollar so this in line with the proceedings of the NightmareOnTheUS$. The money traders honored me very much lately on the last trading year of 2003. On 29 December the Nightmare took the 1,25 US$/Euro level and therefore there was suddenly good hope on even the 1,26 US$/Euro taking. Anyway this is what I hoped for on 29 Dec, would it be possible to end the year on a 1,26 level? 

The first miracle of 2004: Yes it is (partially) possible on a 1,26 level!
        

To me this new Nightmare (on the US dollar) is completely new territory so I have a lot to learn. For example (look in the picture above) when you see a sudden sharp drop below the 1,26 level I must not immediately think that I am under attack! Under attack from some American weasel thing or so.
No no, it was not 'patriotic buying' but only so called 'short positions' covered up before midnight of the last trading day of the year. Thin markets are always interesting to a relatively outsider like me (oops!).

This brand new NightmareOnTheUS$ (created on 24 and 25 November 2003) has also all kinds of the most strange side effects I just could not ever have dreamed of. The next quotes are some complaint from Russia, did you know that a lot of Russians did get paid according to the US dollar value? Quote from Russia:

Title: When was the NightmareOnTheUS$ created? (Exegesis question!)
    

Reports of daily money inflow towards America are still scarcely found, ok ok there is often some undertone that this inflow is declining. But against this there are reports of Asian banks still buying US treasuries on a large scale, that is not good for the future of capitalism. That is only support for that fake American 'capitalism' that needs to pay those 'Chief Executing Officers' amounts of 100+ million US$ a year. (Remark: I don't talk about corporate ownership or so, these so called CEO's are only on the payroll and still need over 100 million a year. Is that capitalism?)

In another development of hefty anti Americanism I felt proud upon the Iraqis and the Afghanis, the US army needs to expend the so called 'stop loss' orders to more 'voluntary' US soldiers. In case you don't know what a 'stop loss' order is; this is simply an order to a soldier expecting to be home in a few weeks or month. The order is 'Your assignment is enduring until we let you go.' 
In the meantime it is also often reported that over fifty percent of the present US soldiers serving in Iraq will not enlist again if they had a chance, that is a good thing. Lets enjoy a few quotes from the freedom lovers:

Now I feel some need to glide into difficult doing upon all kinds of possible Iraqi futures, but I will resist this need. Why paint brain-breaking long term versions while the day-by-day beauty gets lost? After all lately there was another US helicopter shot from strange skies, although it was shit there was only one US soldier dead the other details around this case make it some very interesting attack... First we look at the brave soldier losing her life in this particular attack, she doesn't look that bad so the Americans have some great loss in this. Or not?

Title: A great loss America, but the Pentagon does it all to herself. Or not?
        

Want to know why this particular attack was of interest to me? Let me tell you that for some time I am not very satisfied with the general performance of the so called 'Western free press'. More explicit I asked for the killing of a few more journalists (sorry folks, it isn't Nov-Dec 2001 anymore, sorry folks). Let me quote a few words as they are written for many weeks ago (in italic) while the Media report is quoted in blue font thereafter:  

So journalist shitheads do you now understand why you are legitimate targets and do you understand that this is of good & high moral level? Or do thee prefer to draw other lines between a lot of dots and do thee not see any contradictions at all in the white house version of this all? Now?

(Right after this some Reuters camera crew (entering that scene) came under fire from the US army, I had fun Iraqis I had big fun... This was creative as far as I know it, this was good and smart. By the way Iraqis, don't you know that I am a little bit dissatisfied with the so called 'Geneva rules' of making war? Did you know already?)

And although these so called 'Geneva rules' of making war were very good at the moment they were enforced, as always the usual saying applies. This is: "In the end your strength will always turn into your weakness." With that very simple rule of life in the back of the US army mind we can look at this next interesting picture. 

Title: This picture is nothing, just enjoy the quotes below it & love the USA.
        

(I found the above picture on some American bulletin board, here are a few quotes from just below those pictures. They are not unbiased or so, this is just a sample of the 'short quotes':) 

Well don't we love the above quotes? Aren't they beautiful? Sorry but I am not sarcastic or so, only I have to remember you to more of these nice little facts. It is a quote done by the Holy President of the United States of America. It goes like this:

"We in America are different, we love freedom you know."

That is what George Doubleyou said, there is no denying this my dear Americans. There is no denying. Therefore lets take a look in the eye of the power and the glory, a look in the eye of the smart folks. Just look: 

Title: This picture is nothing, just enjoy the quotes above this.
        

Ha! Didn't I say it on 24 & 25 November last year? Didn't I say "Hedge it or sell it"? And although the momentum is fine and the declining speed is good, the American Federal Reserve did declare that they have the luxury to sit aside, the luxury to sit on their hands... It just looks as if some new 'American dinosaur' is found, after the present US administration and the US army were classified 'dinosaur status' this Federal Reserve could be the next part of America given this particular status. By the way America, how is the war on terror going? Ok? 

Yes America, is the war on terror going fine? I just ask again because in both Afghanistan and Iraq the number of dead civilians was above the whole of nine eleven. That is very interesting but wisdom is found with the words of your Holy President declaring that 'The American public will understand it is important to fight the war on terror abroad and not in Detroit.' That is 'American wisdom' for sure, or not my dear US citizens?  

Title: By the way America, how is the WarOnTerror going?
        

Lets start with a bit of Media reporting, it is know that the occupational forces in Iraq (still looking for Weapons of Mass Destruction) will dump power on the Iraqis half 2004. One July 2004 to be precise, that is less than six months to go so I am hoping this all will glide into a bit better society. Now the first bunch of remarkable quotes, found on globalsecurity dot com:

By the way, did you know that the CIA is funded by the US Air Force budget? (According to a guy named John Pike from globalsecurity dot com this is the fact, a strange fact or not? Why not let the US Navy pay the CIA bills? Why not?)

Now a bit of a math question: Suppose you have a country of 26 million people and there are 50 percent males and also 50 percent females. How many men (or how many percent of men) you must kill before you are at the 40/60 rate of male/female? Just another fine gift of Saddam to history, but we must never forget that we will never know how stuff would have been without Sammy boy. (In reality you also have to take into account how the male/female ratio is into the refugees and so, a lot of people needed to flee the country and likely this was not 'gender unbiased'.)

Title: A great loss America, a bit shit it wasn't even much greater but anyway.
        

Very interesting, but given the fact that Turkey and Syria have some kind of interest in this what Kurd would take those words serious? If I were some Kurd I would not think about those words too much, why waste my time? 
So to the Kurds I can say the next, it is even some 'official' statement:

But like I said above, just to much news is fighting for it's attention. That news is all rather important but I have to select a little bit, so I start with the latest 'bicycle bomb' from the Afghan landscape:

And although I can get very mad upon stupid blasts wiping out far to many kids, I just have to be diplomatic and whisper 'These are only 11 kids dead, only eleven.' Because in case the next quote is true, just much more shit will happen in Muslim countries for decades on a row. Here are the quotes as I found them on some relatively good Indian website (called saag dot org where the 'saag' abbreviation is standing for South Asian Analysis Group):

After all that Osama, Afghan, Kurdish and Iraqi stuff we have to take a little look at the proceedings of the NightmareOnTheUS$. The pictures below are from yesterday 6 January 2004 and that was the second 'thick day' of money trading in this year. And although it is very clear that this NightmareOnTheUS$ is a clear case of 'All other nations against America' there is just one country that is pissing 'beside the potty'. That country is Japan. 

That country is Japan and although I can understand a little bit around the worries the Japanese have after a full decade of economical decline I still think they do not understand the power of the Nightmare. Countries standing beside the realities of this Nightmare will be corrected in the future completely automatic, even if the war chest of the Japanese bank is tripled it will be corrected completely automatic my dear Japan Bank.

So may be I feel a bit challenged by the pictures below, or may be not because money markets will understand the difference between the real currency value and the artificial ones. Just two days ago I wrote that I accepted the Japanese excuse of only fighting 'to much volatility' and from one day back we have these big money markets pictures. From the left to the right we have:

1. The US $/Euro rate from yesterday.
2. The US $/British Pound rate from yesterday.
3. The Japan Yen/US$ rate from yesterday.

Title: Japan is fighting volatility? Or her US-led past? Now Japan?
        

This church attack did frown my eyebrows a little bit, but upon inspection of the details it was found (of course) that some Buddha loving folks have done that. (Of course there were no Media reports found that said that the White House was condemning this particular attack, like observed before the US government goes only after some Muslim stuff and one could wonder why. Why not go after all terror my dear America? Why not?)

Well, one way or the other the next attack just skipped my attention. On a scale of one to ten there are many reasons this attack is some perfect 10. (Although my eyebrows were again a bit frowned when I read 'Schools attacked', but reading the details I can only say I would likely have executed this attack in more or less the same way.) Just read this, quote: 

In another development I have to say 'Burpie burpie & blup blup blup'. What is the case? Well this is a very serious case, in Poland there were some evil divers observed that only tortured animals! (Yes, the GOOD law enforcing police is after their smelly asses because they used unpolite fishing techniques towards innocent swimming fish! Techniques like poaching fish and more evil deeds...)

On the other hand I found out that these fishermen are not evil at all! They even share champagne with the fish on New Years Day! So are divers getting into very cold water on 01 January of the New Year really evil with only spreading intoxicating stuff into fish? Has a fish no right to champagne? Judge for yourself: 

Title: A question for the Taliban; Have fish an Islamic Right on champagne?
        

Yes, a very hard question to crack; Do fish have some Islamic right to receiving champagne yes or no? And if the right is not Islamic, is it some basic fish right? What do the Holy Words tell us on this subject? Now?  

__________________________ 

In yet another development a severe case of drama was found. According to the text found beside the next picture, this is just seconds before the latest helicopter blown from Iraqi skies bursts into flames. On board are nine US soldiers who rather likely are alive at the very moment this picture (taken from video) was made. So in just a few seconds these 9 GI Joes will meet their maker, this picture (if the text is true!) is raw drama. Just raw drama, 9 US soldiers aboard only looking for Weapons of Mass Destruction and nothing more get some spectacular end to their lives... (It was also reported that this latest helicopter was some medical helicopter as could be seen by some black cross or so, do you see a 'medic sign' on this heli?) 

Like said before, if the text is true look at simple drama. (A pity I could never find pictures of the wreckage after the burning out of the helicopter, that is a pity for sure.) Enjoy this drama:

Title: We are now over 500 dead US-led soldiers, fine, good and much more please! 
        

Isn't this a lovely quote? It dates even back to 1984 so it is a nice two decades back! Of course the next picture is an obligation for the story to get reposted;  

Title: States indulging in terrorism will get punished with terror. 
        

At this point in the story it might be wise to whisper to the US army (and all other military mindsets around the planet) that all armies hanging on to old military axioms of making war inside civilian areas could come under attack. It is all a matter of time you know, but there is no turning back and you will come under devastating stuff if you cannot 'fine tune' your military axioms.  

But the elderly Bush has made much more fantastic quotes, a lot of us might remember the 'New World Order' that was promised by Holy President Bush I. In case you are to young for this or you just skipped this wisdom, it was before or after Gulf War I that the Holy President of america of those years found wisdom in declaring that after this war against a brutal dictator 'everything would be different'. That was some NewWorldOrder...

Well, facts are that this NewWorldOrder never materialized. No, nothing of this kind of stuff. The Israelis kept on feeding the American intelligence services with updates upon the Saddam danger and after that we all know what happened. An estimated one million Iraqis died from the economical sanctions (while the Iraqis themselves were not capable of killing Saddam, the only thing that could have changed this little course of history). 

According to recent reports even the two USA-Clinton administrations hang upon the heavy belief of a lot of Weapons of Mass Destruction inside the Iraqi landscape. But now we read the fine fine quotes of the first 'bush president' of the United States of Holy America:

But relentlessly I have to dump more quotes upon this long story, before diving in stuff from that old book of Revelations from the Christian Holy Words we could take a look at the next picture. In that picture you can see the daily development of the US$ per Euro development, for myself speaking I am glad that the first so called 'Delta function' is at the currency scene. 

Title: The first Delta Function observed against those 'freedom lovers'.
        

Yes, who has in fact more power? Is it that US-led presidential thing or is it me? Or is this story just the thing with the most power in it? (I hope that of course, but the first 3  weeks of Gulf War II aren't that promising because there were no serious attacks on Western interests observed). Does my dear neocon cell have a clue on this? Do you still hate me or do you need more beating around the bush before you love me?

Hey my dear and strangest of cells, my dear neocon cell. Sometimes I pick myself some American flower. Today I would like to pick the flower called 'The cult of the dead cow'. That is some old hacker organization that is just picked by me to enter this little story. It is the wish of the story that they will act as some completely independent unit into attacking the big US defense corporations. This on the timescale 2005 and further beyond.
I just pick this flower my dear neocon cell and all I have to whisper are the simple words below:

Title: Welcome cDc, please don't forget to pay enough attention to drivers.
        

Of course I expect the other branches of the CyberWar department to be much better, but the DeadCowCult is an oldie and might have some good ideas of attacking the US military... By the way my dearest of DeadCults, is the next quote true yes or no? Quoting:

Title: Predator drivers will get a little inspection one way or the other.
        

Ok, today I posted the extra text to yesterday and this text could be classified a being hefty anti-American but reality is that the Americans did it all to themselves. It was just some newsarticle as found on the website of the Time magazine, here it is in case you are interested why the previous US Treasury Secretary did get fired... 

By the way, just in case you are interested or so, the previous US-led treasury thing has the name Paul O'Neill. After Paul was fired we got a new bright light at the scene, that is the Snow figure. When you ask the Snow figure upon the currency stuff you always get the same answer and this answer is 'This administration believes in a strong dollar policy while this dollar value has to be placed at free markets.'

You can say a lot upon this particular American administration, this government. It's tax policies are strange, the WarOnTerror often a complete madness but the 'has to be placed at free markets' is some good point to make. These free markets understand the value of the tax policies and the towering twin deficits, they do.

The free markets also understand the meaning of irony in the name of the Snow figure when they are remembered to the strange sexual performance of so called 'snowballing'. Of course, since I am some diplomat, I just never indulge into such strange sexual performances myself and it all depends on the definition of the word 'snow' I just guess but the economical snowballing between the USA and some Asian countries is not good.

Like said before, the Americans need over one billion foreign bucks a day to keep on living the way they do. Why should the rest of the world pay for that? Why is it natural that (for example) a company like Microsoft can easily ask a full 350 US$ for every 'operating system' in Thailand on computers that is traceable? Why this 'natural inbalance' my dear Microsoft? Why?

Oops, I started with 'all this peace in my heart' but only few lines later I run into 'natural inbalances' so all peace vaporizes suddenly into the void. Stuff happens, therefore I stop writing to this day. With a little bit of peace left in my toes lets say till next update. 

My dear money traders, my dear hedge fund cell structure and all other participants in this (weasel central bankers and so). Please let me invite you to the next simple words, here we go:

In another development the space stuff has to be mentioned, observed was that the NASA succeeded into getting a workable robot on Mars while the Europeans failed with this. Strangely enough there were no Media reports observed saying that the (European) 'Beagle has blanded'...  Journalism just has no creativity these days anymore.

My dear NASA, again I took a bit of time to search the internet published files on propulsion stuff but it was only observed that there were strange (nuclear) propulsion solutions at the scene. Although a lot of your future planned deep space robots are equipped with relatively big nuclear power stuff there is just no sign of what I call 'TheDevice'.

Oh oh, the device... I was only a teenager when I created this device, I was just a teenager asking himself why it was that impossible to transform heat into kinetic energy. Why it was per se needed that a car had to exchange energy via it's tires (although for breaking speed the tires are handy). And the military consequences were also very well understood by some teenager before he had to list into the army in this little country, it was understood a few decades ago. After all, if the device was for real, it had more power in it than the combined nuclear arsenal of humanity. Or not NASA? To ventilate a bit of steam why not look at the next picture, here you are honored my dear NASA:

Title: Well done NASA, but if the device is for real what can I say upon you?
        

To make it a little bit good again with the real and normal gays let me throw in a little anecdote:

That was the little story of the two gay pink birds, in another development today another helicopter was shot out of the skies in the Iraqi landscape. This was very good news of course, but when I saw the Media reports on this it was found that the two crew members did survive the crash... Shit shit shit, with a bit of luck they have some severe wounds and with more luck they will be invalid for the rest of their lives...  

But military facts are military facts and during the Vietnam war something like 120 helicopters were shot from the skies and in Iraq we aren't that far by now. No, we are still not on Vietnam levels according to helicopter numbers, that is a military fact. (By the way, lately there was almost one of those big planes shot away, a C-5 plane or so carrying 63 soldiers... A pity that the emergency landing was successful, just imagine 63 US-led soldiers in one blast, that is a good dream and with a bit of luck this dream will come out a few times my dear Iraqis. Keep on trying please, keep on trying to get those big ones.)  

Why not say it again? During the first 21 days of GulfWarII an estimated 5000 civilians died, we are now many months later and we are only at 500 dead US soldiers. So from the bottom of my heart I hope there will be many more dead coalition soldiers, that is what I hope. 

Title: 5000 dead civilians in just 21 days versus only 500 US soldiers in 250 days. 
        

To put a fine finger on it, 5000 is 166% of the 9/11 happenings while this GulfWarII was justified by America because they were only looking at so called Weapons of Mass Destruction (still not found yet, another wonderful example of that devastating standing beside reality of this American administration, this Bush administration). 
But in Afghanistan we had the same joke, far more civilians dead compared to nine-eleven-2001 while the American weasels and cowards never ever investigated how the 9/11 attacks were executed in detail. And all that secrecy surrounding each and every 'executive detail' from that White House, it is disgusting and they are some natural enemy mine. The conservative mindset will get slaughtered one way or the other, in the meantime lets not forget that a majority of American Muslims did vote for the guy named IQ43, named George Doubleyou bush. They did, there is no denying this my dear American Muslims. 

Now we are on that US army anyway, let me share the next quotes with you while slamming in your memory the little fact that GulfWarII was executed without even the permission of the security counsel of the United Nations. The Americans were shouting that some UN resolution did give them the right to invade, but where does this particular UN resolution (number 1441 or so) spell out it that the Americans had the 'invading rights'? I think it didn't (although I never went through the detailed text of that resolution, but of course America would always forbid words implying that just one nation could take these consequences from a particular UN resolution). Enjoy this, quoting:

Title: In the Iraqi alphabet I found the K! K stands for Kiowa Warrior helicopter.
       

So we have right now in this Iraqi alphabet the next:

Title: Ah, she looks so cute this dead Kiowa girl. She looks so cute...
        

In another development it is wise to look at some strange detail into the NightmareOnTheUS$ as started lately on 24 & 25 November last year. (Here is a relevant starting text in case you never have read it.) Here are a few facts:

Lets end the day with a light tone and ask again at the Taliban from the Afghan landscape the next:

Title: A question for the Taliban; Have fish an Islamic Right on champagne?
          

To be precise, this was written six months ago. The 'car inspection' means only that I wondered six months ago how far Abu Mazen could have driven his car on the US-led road map to peace between Israel and it's neighbors. At this date most people don't even know anymore who Abu Mazen was, well Abu was the folk that I put a bit of trust in a long time ago. The Israelis were not capable of recognizing this, a bloody mistake I just guess.

I am not negative or so, it was clear a lot more time was needed to make the stuff the Israelis would understood. Therefore I only share a few quotes with you as I found them today in some Media files, please don't forget that the whole phrase of 'car inspection' is at most something like one kilometer of filled coffins, this is big stuff. Therefore I cannot comment on this, this is not some invitation towards the 'heightened terror danger' level we had lately in America, this is the real stuff. Therefore the next quotes for you:

Comment: These are very lovely quotes and I think the timing of these quotes could be of interest. Why say more upon this simple stuff, wasn't it clear from the last Osama statements what simple futures could be? Of course the 'enemy is listening' so I just have to keep my mouth shut, timing and policies are known by those who need it so good luck. 

That is all I have to say to this very important 'car inspection on roadmaps to peace' day today. 

So far my sad feelings after the US$/€ pair left the speedy and disciplined pace of 1,50 cents/week since the creation of the NightmareOnTheUS$ from 24 & 25 November last year. Often sadness is accompanied by fun or vice versa, this morning I had big fun when I heard two of those political figures sending a message to all financial ministers (or central bankers) around the world... Yes, I do not make this up; it was in the mainstream news that the head of the European counsel (monsieur Romani Prodi) and some French financial governmental guy did sent a message to all financial ministers around the world. 

You might think that this is just very normal, but just read the story that was the birth of the NightmareOnTheUS$, just read it. And you know, this complaint against the Euro surge was worded by the next: 'Currency values have to represent the real economic value of the underlying countries.'
That was a lovely quote European Chief Prodi, and ok ok you might be right stuff went hard lately but there is a lot of irony in your words man. I still defend the fact that the US dollar needs at least 10 percent less 'purchasing value' as this is called (blunt loss of value against all other currencies). That is what I think my dear European Chief. There are many reasons for this but right now I feel a bit FED up with all this money talk and we tunnel into the Goebels stuff.

Here we go:

Now a few quotes from the Media files, since I am suddenly in love with all those wonderful Israeli folks I would like to place a few quotes as found on the Jerusalem Post:  

 Reyashi, a high school graduate active in Hamas women's groups, faked a limp when she set off a metal detector operated by Israeli security personnel at the Erez checkpoint.

While a female solder was being called to search her, Reyashi entered the building and blew herself up, the Israeli army said.

"It was always my wish to turn my body into deadly shrapnel against the Zionists and to knock on the doors of heaven with the skulls of Zionists," Reyashi, wearing combat fatigues with a Hamas sash across her chest, said in the video.

It wasn't the biggest amount of money, the registration fees for a full year of this dot nl website plus a bit more, but my economical situation right now is not that good and therefore I would need two to three weeks to save for that kind of money.

So I decided not to do that and simple wait a few months to see how reality would evolve without me, that is important knowledge too you know. In short it can be said that there were many highs and lows observed, let me name just a few that were foreseen by me on 16 Jan 2004:

• The Americans (and their donkey the United Nations) tried to upscale the so called WarOnDrugs in the Afghan landscape. (Lucky they did not use those chemical warfare planes for spreading poison on the lands of very poor farmers, we know how the Americans are and they love chemical warfare in the WarOnDrugs as observed often in Colombia.)
• The number of burned down Christian churches went up fast, just like the number of deaths from Muslim Sunni-Shia clashes. This clearly proves that the Americans often hefty underperform in most battlefields in the so called WarOnTerror. They only pay attention at the stock value of their beloved civil military industry, high stock value is very important to them. 
  The slimy Americans can see nothing but good flowing from their military and therefore their worldview is rather simple and it's logic obliges 'military solutions' to their little 'terror problems'. Again we see that it is very wise to kill all US military related people in all freedom loving countries around the world. Day in day out and year in year out just kill and kill again, that part of the story can only be written in blood because there is only one way to change the present military axioms and that is killing Americans.
• Not expected but definitely a highpoint in the story was the killing of the Chechen marionet president of the Chechen landscape. To me it was surprising to read the details of the method used, this method was meant by me for some other president but I simply had to forgive the Chechens with a soft smile on my face.
  My compliments for that one! A very good strike and a fine humiliation for the Russian Red Army.
  Also my dear readers it is not for nothing that I concentrate so much upon killing US soldiers, but the Red Army will feel the full wrath of me after my present problems with America are solved. 
  So my dear Chechens now we are 'on the line' anyway, may I ask you the same as I asked to the Iraqis? I mean some kind of economical improvement (that means not that many people starving in the winter due to cold and food and simple medicine) and at the same time place attacks every now and then. (The so called TwoTrack because each kid below 10 years of age not dead can be a builder of the Chechen landscape in the future, that is very simple to understand.)
• On Wednesday 12 November 2003 (or 17 Ramadan according to the lunar calendar) I asked for the first Giant Military Bloody Day to be on 29 April 2004. Since I could not update from 16 January it also became the seventh Military Bloody Day. The results were gigantic in many ways, even the biggest number of dead US soldiers in one strike (in a period of many weeks around 29 April) was observed just 30 minutes before the start of my trial in the city in Leeuwarden. Wonderful! 
  Of course all those evolving in military stuff on 29 April (Abu Ghraib coming out, the power transfer in Fallujah, the aftermath of the Thailand equation, and so on) was not foreseen by me but all in all I was impressed. 
  So much could be said and told upon that date 29 April but for now I will only ask the Thais the same as all other folks; cells must only strike when they are ready. (But against betrayal all strikes will fail, so this was sad all in all. Just take your time, there is always lots of time found in that thing we call the future. So take your time and practice and think and try to be smart, when the time has come to strike just strike.) 
• Like expected the decline in US dollar value stopped and in the long run stuff stabilized around the 1.20 on the US$/€ pair (or 83,333... cents upon the €/US$ pair). To me it was definitely a high point to observe that this equilibrium was above the US$ value from the starting point of the NightmareOnTheUS$. (It was 1.16 or 1.17 for the US$/€ pair on that date, the same evening I started that new Nightmare the US$ fell two full cents and I hope that after all those months we can finally go to that 1.35 level that is more realistic.)
• And so on, and so on, the Madrid paella from 11 March was very interesting (in case you didn't read it, here is an interesting letter for you). It took only 191 human lives (soft target) to make that fundamental lesson, one in every six voters changed opinion when there were elections a few days later.
  As a comparison, 191 dead Spanish civilians is only a few percent of the number of dead Iraqi civilians from only the first 21 days of operation 'Iraqi Freedom'. Something as 4 or 5 percent, so this was a soft response. A very soft response... 

End of this update and end of this part 29 covering January 2004, proceed with the next part please.
