Saddam Hussein Talks to the FBI:
Fingerprints of Saddam Hussein
-------------
Twenty Interviews and Five Conversations with "High Value Detainee # 1" in 2004
"Saddam denied any connections to the "zealot" Osama bin Laden, cited North Korea as his most likely ally in a crunch, and shared President George W. Bush's hostility towards the "fanatic" Iranian mullahs, according to the FBI records of conversations from February through June 2004 between Saddam and Arabic-speaking agents in his detention cell at Baghdad International Airport.
He takes personal responsibility for ordering the launching of SCUD missiles against Israeli targets during the 1991 Persian Gulf War, because he blamed Israel and its influence in the U.S. for “all the problems of the Arabs”, but denies that his purpose was to draw that country into the conflict and to divide Washington from its Arab allies. He provides details on the lead-up to the war, reporting that during a January 1991 meeting former Secretary of State James Baker told Saddam’s foreign minister that if Iraq did not comply with U.S. conditions “we’ll take you back to the pre-industrial stage.”

I know this might sound strange to you but I find the picture above to have very nice compositional elements for a drawing/painting! It actually works well as a piece of art!

TGIA, Isn't this available to you in J S Kit?
ReplyDeleteManagement Administrators can modify the ban list at any time
I don't know, I don't see anywhere! Maybe it's in the pro version(paid version). I lost the ability to ban or unban the day JS-kit has completed its overtake of Haloscan 2 weeks ago and started to ask me to create a new login. Every time I create a new username, it'srefused! I sent them an email this morning...I'm sick of it!
ReplyDeleteWhere did you find that option vza? I looked for it everywhere to no avail!! It used to be possible though among many other things!! I could do it anytime before. No more now!!

ReplyDelete<p style=""><span style="">He’s right, you know. </span>
In a way it's true but we could do with a better multitasking skills though!
ReplyDeleteI was curious so I went to the web site for J S Kit and I looked at all the options for the free version and it quite clearly listed this:Management Administrators can modify the ban list at any time I thought there would be an explantion in the administrators guide which I cannot access. So that is as much as I know.
ReplyDeleteSorry for the missing link. Added now!

ReplyDeleteI see, but that's not working for me! When I click on a banned name and click unban as it was possible before, it's not anymore!! Something is wrong. I emailed them anyway! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteMy take on this is that it's a login problem. No access to the feature mentioned above.
ReplyDeleteI think you better check ans see whose information is in the administration area, it must be someone else...
ReplyDelete<h2>"How do I restore my administrator privileges?</h2>
<h2>If for some reason you have lost your widget administrator privileges (this could occur for a number of reasons, particularly if you clear your cookies or change browsers), the following procedure will allow you to restore them:</h2>
Visit the Admin Dashboard (www.js-kit.com/settings) and locate the "To restore administration rights" form at the bottom of the page. Type the URL of your site in the corresponding text box and click on "Restore". You will shortly receive an email from JS-Kit with further instructions.
If JS-Kit does not have an e-mail address associated with your site, you will receive on-screen instructions for restoring your administrative rights."

Better check and see who is running the show on this site

ReplyDeleteEven when I'm given the admin rights which I do have as it says, banning and unbanning are no more available! This is my problem for now. Clicking on a banned name/IP doesn't yield to any option anymore!! I sent an email. They didn't come back to me yet. Only an automatically generated message that they will later!
My login is fixed but not the ban/unban feature. Back to outlook express!
