Sarah Palin has issued a video statement (above) this morning in response to the shooting Tucson, saying his decision to target rifle on a map more Congressional District Gabrielle Giffords “had absolutely nothing to do with the incident at all. How could he not? But why so defensive then? And what better way for Palin to address a shooting that targeted Giffords, who is Jewish, by using a metaphor Semitic? Palin said that those who link the tragedy of her violent rhetoric commit “blood libel” – which refers to a charge of the Middle Ages that Jews killed Christian children to use their blood to make unleavened bread for Passover. Palin is right, this incident was more about mental illness than rhetoric – until you consider the fact that spitting rhetoric are mentally ill.

Twitter Wikileaks

Twitter WikileaksWikileaks said on Saturday the Twitter accounts of four supporters were subpoenaed as part of an investigation of spying on the website of denunciation led by an American jury secrecy.

Wikileaks, which began releasing 251,287 diplomatic cables from the United States in November, said he had reason to believe that Facebook and Google have also received court orders requesting details about users.

“Today, the existence of a secret U.S. government investigation into the espionage Wikileaks grand jury has been confirmed for the first time, a summons was brought into the public domain,” Wikileaks said in a statement.

Wikileaks said legal action brought by the micro-blogging site Twitter, “revealed that the U.S. State Department has asked private messages, contact information, IP addresses and personal details of Julian Assange and three others associated Wikileaks, in addition to Wikileaks? Own account, which has 634,071 followers.

He did not name the three other people, but the Icelandic Parliament Birgitta Jonsdottir said on his Twitter feed on U.S. authorities Saturday were asked to submit its Twitter account information and personal information.

“I come to this: Twitter has received judicial process requesting information on your Twitter account (from Wikileaks),” the champion of media freedom posted overnight.

“The demand for information is my tweet by the U.S. Department of Justice.” “The demand for information from twitter is also my personal information not only tweets,” she said.

Jonsdottir – a close associate of Wikileaks, which in September suggested Julian Assange retirement as spokesperson for the site because of the rape charges against him – said she considered the request of Justice Minister of Iceland.

He examines the case of requests for DoJ (Department of Justice) who want my contact twitter; it posted shortly after 1100 GMT on Saturday.

She said she had 10 days to stop the legal process and stressed the U.S. Department of Justice, not twitter, was to blame.

Wikileaks said on Saturday he was “opposed to the order of assignment and is taking steps to instruct lawyers in the United States.”

He urged Twitter to protect the private information of its users and stressed that other than Assange, the three people whose accounts had been subpoenaed had never worked for the site.

“Two have been instrumental in helping to Wikileaks Collateral Murder video – which showed a U.S. helicopter crew killed civilians they celebrate – in the public domain,” said Wikileaks.

The April 2010 release of the classified video, which shows U.S. Apache helicopter strikes in Baghdad that killed several people in 2007, has contributed to Wikileaks global spotlight.

The site has since angered the Pentagon in July 2010 by showing secret documents about the war in Afghanistan and then in October by a mass exodus of so-called “war in Iraq logs”.

Its release in November of diplomatic cables from the United States has embarrassed the governments around the world and led to numerous calls for Wikileaks to face a lawsuit.

The site has also suffered financial pressures when the credit card giants Visa and Mastercard said they would stop making gifts to the site.

“After trying to silence Wikileaks putting pressure on Paypal, Visa and Mastercard to cut off funding, the Government of the United States is now intrude into the privacy of certain supporters of Wikileaks most publicized,” Chief Julian Assange Wikileaks has said Saturday.

Assange, Australia 39-years, which is the public face of Wikileaks, is currently on bail in Britain to face extradition proceedings in Sweden on charges of S-EX-ual assault.

Suge Knight Killed Tupac, Updates

Suge Knight Killed Tupac, (CNN) – In the late 90s, two of Shakur’s biggest hip-hop star Tupac and Christopher Wallace (aka Biggie Smalls, Notorious BIG) were killed six months apart in eerily similar fashion.

According to witnesses, two were passengers in vehicles stopped at busy intersections, but police never received solid leads to the arrest of a suspect for one of the shootings apparently targeted.

On September 7, 1996, Marion “Suge” Knight, then head of Death Row Records, Tupac Shakur was carried out, his multi-platinum artist, at a party in Las Vegas after attending the Mike Tyson-Bruce Sheldon boxing match. Their security team has been in separate vehicles. While stopped at a busy intersection just off the Las Vegas Strip, witnesses say a white Cadillac pulled alongside and a gunman in the back seat fired multiple bullets from a semiautomatic pistol Knight in the vehicle.

Shakur with bleeding in the passenger seat, Mr. Knight made a U-turn, driving on a median of the street, and finally coming to a stop further blocks.

Las Vegas police bicycle nearby, which heard the shooting, followed by vehicle Knight. The white Cadillac sped away.

Cathy Scott, who was one of the first journalists on the scene and author of “The killing of Tupac Shakur,” told CNN done to secure the scene of the shooting and interview witnesses immediately condemned the investigation. Las Vegas police said witnesses were not forthcoming with details.

There are several possible reasons for the murder.

One theory is that the shooting was recovered for a fight caught on video surveillance casino three hours before the shooting. The man who was beaten that night, Orlando Anderson, told CNN a year later he had nothing to do with the crime. Eight months after this interview, Anderson was killed in what police described as a gang shoot-out in Los Angeles.

Another theory focuses on the “gangsta” lifestyle of the hip hop world at the time and advertising on the coast between East and West Coast rap war Knight Records Death Row in Los Angeles and Bad Boy Entertainment in New York, who represented the rapper Biggie Smalls. Shakur and Smalls was involved in the game through their music.

Six months after the shooting of Shakur, Smalls came to California to promote his upcoming album “Life After Death” and said in a radio station in San Francisco that he wanted to “squash” rumors of the battle of East Coast- West Coast.
Four days later, March 9, 1997, on leaving some of the music industry at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles, Smalls was gunned down. The Los Angeles police said one of the gunmen pulled alongside only the fire and opened the commuter Smalls, who was on the passenger seat.

The main theory behind Smalls’ shooting: recovery for the murder of Shakur six months earlier.

Retired LAPD Detective Russell Poole, who worked on the Smalls case, told CNN he believes that Suge Knight was behind the murder, even if the Death Row Records boss serving time on a violation of probation at the time.

“Suge Knight has ordered the strike,” Poole said, adding that he believes he was held by Reggie Wright Jr., who headed security for Death Row Records.

Poole goes further, saying he believes Knight was behind the murder of Tupac Shakur as well. Poole said Shakur’s bodyguards told him that the rapper plans to sever ties with Death Row Records Knight could have cost the company millions of dollars.

“This theory has yet to add,” said Scott, who wrote “The killing of Tupac Shakur,” noting that Knight was sitting in the seat beside the driver’s rapper. “Open fire on my car, but try not to hit me?”

Reggie Wright Jr. told CNN he had nothing to do with either murder, and Suge Knight has repeatedly said he had nothing to do with the crime.

But two months after the murder of Shakur, Knight spoke to ABC News and a quote seems to follow the old record company executive: “If you knew who killed Tupac, would you tell the police?” Regarding Knight replied: “Absolutely not. It’s not my job. I’m not paid to solve homicides. I’m not paid to tell people.”

New Years Eve 2011

New Years Eve 2011 – Millions will see in 2011 during celebrations of New Year’s Eve in London and across the country, but clouds, fog and mist are expected to absorb the annual fireworks.

“Temperatures will not be too bad, usually 2C to 4C (35.6F to 39.2F) above freezing into midnight.”

Final preparations for the show in the capital are under way with a British company pyrotechnics used for the first time in the fireworks.

Cambridgeshire Kimbolton Fireworks Company will be behind the show at the London Eye, which will also be music for the first time with BBC Radio 1 DJ Nihal providing the soundtrack.

London Mayor Boris Johnson said the “dazzling” display would include the “dynamism, color and energy” of the city in front of 250,000 people expected along the Thames.

The celebrations continue with a parade on January 1st of the 25th year through New London. Cloudy and hazy is expected that half a million people are expected to pack the streets of Westminster to the free event.

More than 8,500 musicians, cheerleaders and performers, including those of the 20 London boroughs will take part in the parade with a 2.2 mile special message from the queen to start reading the proceedings.
