Ongeveer 40% van de uitgestrekte moerassen in Zuid-Irak kan worden hersteld, dit was de boodschap op een wetenschappelijk congres dat vorige week in Washington werd gehouden. Saddam Hussein legde het woongebied van de zogenaamde moeras-arabieren destijds droog om deze sjiieten te straffen voor hun opstand aan het eind van de eerste Golfoorlog. Maar al sinds de Arabische Wende is de lokale bevolking begonnen met het doorsteken van dammen en vloeit er weer water over de vlakten die ooit het grootste wetland van Eurazi

Sargasso is een laagdrempelig platform waarop mensen kunnen publiceren, reageren en discussiëren, vanuit de overtuiging dat bloggers en lezers elkaar aanvullen en versterken. Sargasso heeft een progressieve signatuur, maar is niet dogmatisch. We zijn onbeschaamd intellectueel en kosmopolitisch, maar tegelijkertijd hopeloos genuanceerd. Dat betekent dat we de wereld vanuit een bepaald perspectief bezien, maar openstaan voor andere zienswijzen.
In de rijke historie van Sargasso – een van de oudste blogs van Nederland – vind je onder meer de introductie van het liveblog in Nederland, het munten van de term reaguurder, het op de kaart zetten van datajournalistiek, de strijd voor meer transparantie in het openbaar bestuur (getuige de vele Wob-procedures die Sargasso gevoerd heeft) en de jaarlijkse uitreiking van de Gouden Hockeystick voor de klimaatontkenner van het jaar.
Voor de Amerikaanse staatsburgers onder ons deze schitterende job opportunity: Je wordt er schatrijk van en kunt er wereldberoemd mee worden. Je kunt Bin Laden vangen, Weapons of Mass Destruction ontdekken en de missing link met 9/11 implementeren. Je kunt darmkanalen verkennen met stukken hout, geytenneukers meppen, en burkhas in de fik steken. A splendid time is guaranteed for all !
Waarom je eigenlijk Amerikaans staatsburger moet zijn ontgaat me een beetje; het is toch “either with us, or with the terrorists” ?
Word nu ook Interrogator for Iraq ! (bij Calnet)
Wapeninspecteur Scott Ritter heeft gisteren voor een volle zaal in Washington State voorspeld dat de Verenigde Staten in juni 2005 Iran zullen gaan bombarderen. De aanval zal gericht zijn op de nucleaire installaties, maar neo-conservatieven hopen dat het tevens een regime change katalyseert in deze perzische theocratie.
President George W. Bush has received and signed off on orders for an aerial attack on Iran planned for June 2005. This next phase of the war could be stopped, but Scott Ritter fears Iraq might be remembered as a rather small event preceding a much greater conflagration. (DailyKos)
De redactie van Sargasso bestaat uit een club vrijwilligers. Naast zelf artikelen schrijven struinen we het internet af om interessante artikelen en nieuwswaardige inhoud met lezers te delen. We onderhouden zelf de site en houden als moderator een oogje op de discussies. Je kunt op Sargasso terecht voor artikelen over privacy, klimaat, biodiversiteit, duurzaamheid, politiek, buitenland, religie, economie, wetenschap en het leven van alle dag.
Om Sargasso in stand te houden hebben we wel wat geld nodig. Zodat we de site in de lucht kunnen houden, we af en toe kunnen vergaderen (en borrelen) en om nieuwe dingen te kunnen proberen.

“Baby verlost van tweede hoofd” kopt de Telegraaf. Het babytje dat verlost wordt kijkt er wel redelijk rielekst bij, de kleine guit, dit in tegenstelling tot het tweede hoofd; een berustende gelaatsuitdrukking, er pruttelt wat schuim uit een mondhoek, maar toch, waarom is dit het 2e hoofd en niet het eerste ? Gewoon een kwestie van vette pech dus. Vette pech voor hoofd no2.
Voor een hoofd dat elf maanden lang “geen verbinding met de organen” heeft gehad ziet het er trouwens verassend fris uit.
Bedrieglijk echt gaat over papyrologie en dan vooral over de wedloop tussen wetenschappers en vervalsers. De aanleiding tot het schrijven van het boekje is het Evangelie van de Vrouw van Jezus, dat opdook in het najaar van 2012 en waarvan al na drie weken vaststond dat het een vervalsing was. Ik heb toen aangegeven dat het vreemd was dat de onderzoekster, toen eenmaal duidelijk was dat deze tekst met geen mogelijkheid antiek kon zijn, beweerde dat het lab uitsluitsel kon geven.
Sorry jongens maar even een follow up-je; het arme kind dat onthoofd is (van haar 2e hoofd dan) verkeert “in kritieke toestand” (ANP).
En ze blijven maar bij die bewering dat dat 2e hoofd “geen verbinding met de organen” had. Nou ben ik geen medicus maar ik weiger te geloven dat een hoofd dat er na 11 maanden zo uitziet (niet echt fris maar ook niet echt vies, alles is relatief) geen enkele verbinding heeft met “de organen”.
Wie heeft Al-Hariri vermoord? Het frans arabische weblog Je Blog knoopt wat eindjes aan elkaar en signaleert het voorspel van een amerikaanse aanval. Maar ook de amerikaan Michael Young, redacteur bij de Beirut’s Daily Star, blijft overal herhalen:
“Certainly, the mood is very clearly that Syria did this. Syria will be blamed for it no matter who did it. They’ll be even more isolated internationally than they already are.” (LATimes)
Translation: Never mind the facts. Damascus must pay (antiwar.com).
De Verenigde Staten trokken hun ambassadeur in Damascus terug (IHT). En dan was er nog dat merkwaardige telefoontje dat de directeur van Al-Jazeera ontving. Een onbekende terreurgroep claimde in het arabisch met een vreemd (lees: westers) accent de bomaanslag (Al-Jazeera). Voer voor complottheoretici. Maar met alle rompslomp in Irak zullen de amerikanen wel gek zijn om nog een oorlog te beginnen. De recent ontstane situatie in Libanon is voor de VS echter wel een uitgelezen kans om Syri
Update 16.07 De iraanse TV heeft zichzelf inmiddels gerectificeerd (een unicum in de islamitische wereld): de “explosie” nabij de Bushehr kerncentrale zou zijn veroorzaakt door “vallend puin” van een iraans vliegtuig. Sargasso blijkt maar weer eens het enige weblog dat u razendsnel meeneemt in wilde geruchtenstromen, maar zodra daar aanleiding toe is u weer veilig aflevert in gerectificeerd vaarwater.

Tot het eind van de Koude Oorlog heeft de BVD de CPN in de gaten gehouden. Maar de dienst deed veel meer dan spioneren. Op basis van nieuw archiefmateriaal van de AIVD laat dit boek zien hoe de geheime dienst in de jaren vijftig en zestig het communisme in Nederland probeerde te ondermijnen. De BVD zette tot tweemaal toe personeel en financiële middelen in voor een concurrerende communistische partij. BVD-agenten hielpen actief mee met geld inzamelen voor de verkiezingscampagne. De regering liet deze operaties oogluikend toe. Het parlement wist van niets.
