United Press International reports that German officials have yet to recieve word on whether Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad plans to go to Nuremburg to watch the Iranian national team play in the 2006 FIFA World Cup. As you might know Nuremburg during Hitlers reign was a major shrine for National Socialists who held who held their annual party congresses nearby from 1933 through 1938. The city became a center of anti-Semitic propaganda, including the famous Nuremberg rallies captured in Leni Riefenstahl's 1934 film Triumph of the Will.
Rumor has it that Mahmoud is currently occupied assembling a team of Holocaust experts armed with forensics briefcases for the purposes of conducting scientific research that will conclusively put an end to Isreal. Amongst the inventory of cutting edge equipment members of this high-level team will be putting to use in pursuit of the truth this summer are; tweazers, magnifying glasses, latex gloves, infra-red flash lights, soap, tank-tops, walnuts & goat cheese, and fresh basil. It is also said that Mahmoud also intends to document his trip to Nuremburg in order to learn and examine the soul of Christianity while in the heartland of Europe. With the knowledge gained he will soon pen the Gospels of Ahmadinejad in order to recapitulate righteousness for lost Christians souls in the World. Hand written versions of the Gospels of Ahmadinejad in No. 8B graphite are expected in every major book vendor in Qom , Abadan, and large rural areas where the Iranian government is pushing empowerment through knowledge.
Europeans and their American counterparts are eagerly looking forward to his Highness' visit to the continent. Europe and the United States have reportedly set up a joint operations room to deal with the Iranian delegations.
Dateline Tuesday May 16 2006 news from the bastion of world news, CNN, Bears eat monkey, visitors shocked. Apparently the grisly incident occurred in Amsterdam where Dutch zoo-goers were appalled by...I don't know what they were appalled by. Most of the lot were perhaps stoned-out and were quick to grab a bite of their own to satiate their own munchies. Those who were in shock "as several bears chased the monkey, a macaque,grabbed the monkey, mauling it to death and bringing it to the concrete den, where three bears ate it" what can I say; they're Dutch. A simple peoples, peace-loving, cultivators of dairy, and fruits products, and cannabis, with a historical disposition for marvelous architectural skills. Why would such peoples be shocked of wild bears eating a monkey? More importantly, why does CNN consider this World news? Is it retribution for the damage to Scandinavian compassion & humanity caused by the Mohammed cartoons? Bears eating monkeys can you believe it!

A dreary grey day suited an equally monochrome event in Muenster Germany today. All traffic across the major artery to the train station, Eisenbhanstrasse, into areas adjacent to the Altstadt was blocked by heavy police barricades. Only residents of areas beyond the police line were allowed to cross. On one side of the station that normally shunts people between the surrounding city and the Altstadt a major Neo-Nazi demonstration, on the other side a group of counter protestors.
