"It deals with military exchanges, everything from comparing military equipment to the exchange of students and instructors at military academies" the official said. "There will be provisions for US Navy ship visits and sharing lessons in peacekeeping."

Not even an interesting development. US has similar agreements with China(and over 100 other countries)...and if they behave themselves there is no need for 'immunity' from Brazil's laws. smilies/smiley.gifsmilies/wink.gif

What I found more interesting was Vale pushing through the damned dam despite the Law, despite the coming international condemnation, and despite the 'common sense' of supposedly 'educated' people.smilies/shocked.gif

It may seem to some that I rant unfavorably against the US and its role in the Empire to extreme, but I would simply say that it only due to the actions of people who are above the Law, above common sense, and without the least compassion or fairness, to achieve a false agenda only to line their pockets with the inheritance and the sweat of others. Whether they do this by guile and subterfuge, or by force of arms, the results are the same. Some would argue that it is just "the way the world works", but I find it more the case that it is simply "the way 'some' people are working the world".
How is it, with impunity, some are 'allowed' to circumvent the rights of the people, the Laws of the nation, and any kind of fairness? As they amass their fortunes on the backs of ever increasing servile societies, do they understand that they are also building ever increasing populations of people who are 'aware' of their perverse imperialism? Just ask the people of Iceland and Greece if they did not work just as hard only to find themselves casualties of a crisis 'made in the USA'.
How does Lula fight for Palestinian rights when he subjects Brazilians to such lawlessness? Is that the price to sit among the supposed masters of the Empire? How many more will be sacrificed to the only god these people understand, and that is money? Lula may have >70% approval, but that 30% disapproving will have every reason.smilies/wink.gif

I can't wait to hear your learned explanation for not condemning this tragedy, but I'm sure you will find sufficient courage to tackle such a weighty conundrum?

Perhaps we should loudly condemn Mr. Sarkozy and his minions. Or perhaps France Telecom could teach Cuba how to be more effective.

Thanks for the link you posted about France Telecom. I know the whole story. Sarko is clinging to the hope that he can create jobs in France at the cost of Brasilians. That is one of the reasons I am against buying the over priced RAFALES. I have gone through this Bullshit of the Spaniards, Mexicans, Eyetalians trying to better our Telecom sector. Now, we find Vivendi in Brasil.

In order to avoid "suicides" in France Telecom, Sarko will probably send French "Experts" to our country.Sorry Lloyd, the French have nothing to teach us how to set up a "back bone" or how to build a plane. I am sure that the "neo-liberals" trained in Sorbonne and Cornell in "Sociology" along with home bred "resistance fighters" will work hard to let the French and the rest of "Old Europe" trample upon the Brasilans. They may succeed, but will not get my vote.

BTW, if the French are dissatisfied with Sarko, it is time to impeach him and not commit suicides. France is a democracy, right?

I must confess also to having been an 'agent' of Israeli intrusion into the Brazilian telecom sector. I was working for them when I made my journey to Brazil smilies/shocked.gifsmilies/wink.gif
There was much hope for peace at the time. Even a office in Tehran and some Iranian and Pakistani colleagues...but...but...all gone with neo-con and Zionist collusion to stir up Mid-east conflict.

You must have been responsible for getting them the license to set up a Telephone Company for the paltry sum of $220,000.smilies/wink.gif Did you make your "journey" in 1999 or 2000? smilies/cool.gif

Well there is a saying that no one is an island, making an agreement with the other country is a sign of having a mutual understanding of the both country. There is nothing wrong with it as long as the agreement are for peace and for good development of both country.http://www.mountsplus.com/AR-15_Accessories/AR-15_Scope_Mounts/Aimpoint.html
Agreement is one way of having a good relationship to other country, it will help both party to make their country become more progress in all the aspect of their government.
