#1. Brit-Am's Jerusalem News Exposes US Web Hoax Posing as Satire!!
I watched the video and, realizing that it was fake from the start, found it to
be audaciously humorous. Didn't anyone notice "Bush" saying that he had found
400 billion A Q agents?
However, I agree that with the amazing dubbing technology available, there
should be some regulation on what people do with it. Somebody could do some
serious damage by making people believe that someone said something they
actually did not. Some people obviously still think that videos cannot lie. A
large portion of Bolivian adults have become convinced that man never went to
the moon, because of some Spanish language broadcasts from the Discovery
Channel. Adolph Hitler showed what can be done with a gullible public even
without modern computer technology. After getting over laughing at the
ridiculous content of that faked State of the Union address, I confess to a pang
of fear over what could happen in the future with this type of thing.

THE SIMON WIESENTHAL CENTRE LIST OF THE WORLD'S ten MOST WANTED NAZIS
(1. DR ARIBERT HEIM, whereabouts unknown: Indicted in Germany on charges that he
murdered hundreds of inmates at Mauthausen concentration camp, where he was camp
doctor. Disappeared in 1962, before planned prosecution.
(2. JOHN DEMJANJUK, in United States: Ukrainian immigrant alleged by US
authorities to have been guard at Nazi camps. He denies that. Extradited to
Israel in 1986, where he was sentenced to death for allegedly being Treblinka
camp guard "Ivan the Terrible". Verdict overturned in 1993 and Demjanjuk
returned to America. US citizenship restored in 1998, then removed in 2002.
Seeking to appeal against court's January rejection of challenge to immigration
judge's order that would send him to Germany, Poland or Ukraine.
(3. SANDOR KEPIRO, in Hungary: Former Hungarian gendarmerie officer accused of
involvement in wartime killings of more than 1,000 civilians in Serbia.
Convicted twice in Hungarian courts, in 1944 and 1946, but never punished.
Kepiro, who moved back to Hungary in 1996 after decades in Argentina, denies
accusations. Hungary reinvestigating.
(4. MILIVOJ ASNER, in Austria: Police chief in Croatia's wartime Nazi puppet
regime, he is suspected of active role in persecution and deportation to death
of hundreds of Serbs, Jews and gypsies. In 2005, Croatia requested his
extradition from Austria, which refused, saying he is unfit to stand trial or be
questioned.
(5. SOEREN KAM, in Germany: Former member of SS wanted by Denmark for
assassination of journalist in 1943. Extradition was blocked in 2007 by Bavarian
court that found insufficient evidence for murder charges.
(6. HEINRICH BOERE, in Germany: Admitted hit man for Waffen-SS accused of
killing three Dutch civilians. Sentenced to death in absentia in 1949 in
Netherlands, later commuted to life in prison. German courts refused to
extradite him, and then declared conviction invalid. Prosecutors in Dortmund,
Germany, brought new murder charges against him this month.
(7. CHARLES ZENTAI, in Australia: Former Hungarian soldier has been under
investigation by Hungary's foreign ministry since December 2004 on suspicion of
killing Peter Balazs in Budapest in 1944 for failing to wear a yellow star
identifying him as Jew. Zentai denies charge and is fighting extradition.
(8. MIKHAIL GORSHKOW, in Estonia: US officials and Jewish groups accuse Gorshkow
of helping to kill Jews while serving as interpreter and interrogator for
Gestapo in Belarus. He returned to native Estonia in 2002 just before federal
court stripped him of US citizenship for lying about his war record. Prosecutors
in Estonia investigating case.
(9. ALGIMANTAS DAILIDE, in Germany: Convicted in 2006 in Lithuania of helping to
round up Jews for Nazis as officer in Vilnius security police. Sentenced to five
years in jail, but judge ruled he was too frail to serve sentence. He had been
deported from US to Germany in 2003 for lying on immigration application. Lives
in Germany, but went voluntarily to Lithuania for trial.
(10. HARRY MANNIL, in Venezuela: Former officer in Estonia's political police
and German security forces during Nazi occupation of Estonia. US authorities
investigating Mannil's 1990s' visa application concluded he took part in murder
of hundreds of Jews, barring him entry. Was cleared in 2005 by Estonian
investigation into allegations of crimes against humanity.
3. Falling German Birthrate

Falling German Birthrate Dispels Baby Miracle Myth
by NICHOLAS KULISH
Extracts:
A United Nations report this year called this global aging "a process without
parallel in the history of humanity" and predicted that people older than 60
would outnumber those under 15 for the first time in 2047.
The twin forces of rising life expectancy and falling birthrates have
accelerated the process. This is apparent from the United States, where policy
makers fret over the baby boom generation beginning to retire, to Japan, which
has the highest share of people older than 60 in the world. As in Japan, more
than a quarter of the population in Italy and Germany is over 60, and the
phenomenon extends to Poland and Russia.
Although the German government has begun to address the issue, it was
particularly slow out of the blocks in dealing with its low birthrate, and,
since 2003, the contraction of its population, in that first year by just 5,000
people, but in 2006 by a 130,000. The German population stands at 82.4 million
people.
That was, in part, because almost no debate can proceed unencumbered by the
country 's Nazi past. Hitler's government gave medals to mothers of large
families, gold for those with eight or more children. Uneasiness over the
parallels kept the subject of encouraging reproduction on the back burner in
Germany for years, unlike in France where promoting childbearing has long been
government policy.
According to European Union statistics, the crude birthrate, defined as births
per thousand inhabitants, has declined in Germany in each of the last nine
years, from 9.9 in 1997 to 8.2 in 2006. Even after factoring in immigration, the
German population is experiencing "exponential negative growth," Mr. Klingholz
says. The problem is not new, deaths have outnumbered live births in Germany
since 1972, but a muscular response by the government is.
