Herrn Dr. JoachimPfeifer MdB

Zur Information an:

Frau Dr. Inge Gräßle MdEP,
Herrn Roderich Kiesewetter MdB

und

Kritische Bürgerinnen und Bürger


Sehr geehrter Herr Dr. Pfeifer,

im SWR-Tagesgespräch mit Marion Theis am 13. April 2011, 07:07:00

http://mp3-download.swr.de/swr2/tagesgespraech/2011/04/447670.6444m.mp3

warben Sie für die Benutzung von E10-Benzin.

Aber die Auswirkungen durch die Verwendung dieses Treibstoffs wurden leider nicht besprochen.

In einem Interview mit der Schwäbischen Zeitung vom 13.4.11 sagte Josef Sayer, Geschäftsführer des Hilfswerk Misereor: 'E10 bedeutet letztlich, dass auf der einen Seite die Mägen leer und auf der anderen Seite die Tanks voll sind.'

Den Bericht des Umweltinstituts München e.V.:

'Tödlicher Biosprit
Die Renaissance des Zuckerrohranbaus in Nicaragua

EU und Bundesregierung fördern massiv die Beimischung von Biokraftstoffen. Am Beispiel Nicaragua zeigt sich, dass von 'bio' bei der Herstellung von Bioethanol nicht die Rede sein kann. Die gängigen Methoden des Zuckerrohranbaus schädigen die Gesundheit zahlreicher Menschen ? oft mit tödlichen Folgen.'

Am 17.4.2009 sendete ARTE die Dokumentation:

'Die Biosprit-Lüge'

'?Der ehemalige UN-Sonderberichterstatter für das Recht auf Nahrung, Jean Ziegler, hat die Biotreibstofffabrikation als 'Verbrechen gegen die Menschheit' bezeichnet.'

Den Film können Sie unter:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXfMmllDQgc&NR=1

ansehen.


Sehr geehrter Herr Pfeifer als wirtschaftspolitischer Sprecher der CDU empfehle ich Ihnen das Buch: 'Faktor Fünf - Die Formel für nachhaltiges Wachstum'

von Ernst Ulrich von Weizsäcker, Karlson Hargroves und Michael Smith.

http://www.droemer-knaur.de/buecher/Faktor+F%C3%BCnf.891358.html und

http://www.droemer-knaur.de/magazin/Interview+mit+Ernst+Ulrich+von+Weizs%C3%A4cker.4600438.html

Helfen Sie mit Ideen aus diesem Buch zu verwirklichen.

In diesem Buch wird der Bericht:
'Toward sustainable Production and use of resources: Assessing Biofuels'

http://www.unep.fr/scp/rpanel/pdf/Assessing_Biofuels_Full_Report.pdf

veröffentlicht 2009 vom United Nations Enviroment Progamme (UNEP) aufgeführt:

'?Ein umfassender Bericht von Stefan Bringezu u.a. an das International Panel for Sustainable Resource Management zeigt, dass die Vorteile (von Biokraftstoff) oft überschätzt, die Nachteile unterschätzt wurden?' S. 167

Darüber hinaus verkaufen Staaten wie Kambodscha oder Äthiopien, die auf internationale Hilfe angewiesen sind, um ihre Bevölkerung zu ernähren, wertvolle Agrarflächen an ausländische Investoren. Sehen Sie dazu die Dokumentation von ARTE am Dienstag, 19. April um 20.15 Uhr und Wiederholungen: 28.04 um 10:00:

'Dritte Welt im Ausverkauf

Mit der weltweiten Wirtschafts- und Finanzkrise verschärft sich auch die ungleiche Nahrungsmittelverteilung auf der Welt. Der Dokumentarfilm zeigt, dass die Zahl der Hungerkatastrophen wächst und sich die Schere zwischen Arm und Reich immer weiter öffnet.'

Oben wurde Jean Ziegler zitiert. Ein Interview mit ihm finden Sie unter:

President Obama pledged Wednesday 'to act boldly now' on the huge deficits. But alas his newly revealed budget for 2012 is no better at cutting the deficit than was his first attempt just two months ago. Yes, we do indeed need to act boldly. With deficits accumulating to $4.3 trillion during over his first three years as president and another $10.4 trillion projected over the next decade, time is not on our side. As it is, the president not only pushed for the increased spending but also has fought budget cuts at each step along the way...

When President Obama mouths off about a 'free society,' you know that the tokenism will be followed by a list of 'liberties' that takes the 'vision thing' away from private individuals, and leaves it to souped-up civil servants and voracious bureaucrats. After BHO took great care to tether his 'vision' of America to the size of state social programs, here is what the president?s vague, debt-reduction plans entail...

Congressman Dennis Kucinich: My Experience Dealing With the Department of Defense Regarding Pfc. Bradley Manning Has Been Kafkaesque

Congressman Dennis Kucinich, Truthout: 'Since my initial request to visit Private First Class (Pfc.) Bradley Manning on February 4, 2011, the Department of Defense (DoD) has consistently sought to frustrate any attempts to communicate with Pfc. Manning regarding his well-being. I was initially told that I would need Pfc. Manning's approval in order to meet with him. When Pfc. Manning indicated his desire to meet with me, I was belatedly informed that the meeting could only take place if it was recorded because of a Monitoring Order imposed by the militarys Special Courts-Martial Convening Authority on September 16, 2010, which was convened for the case.'

Japans nuclear cover-up

It is not nuclear technology as such that presents the danger, but the social and economic order under which it has developed. If nuclear power remains in the hands of private corporations and under the domination of the capitalist market, the environment and public health and safety will inevitably be subordinated to the drive for profit.

The Buying and Selling of the Pentagon

Part II

Dina Rasor, Truthout: 'I don't believe that the US can make real changes to DoD procurement until we change the incentives of the individuals who work in this corrupt system. All other attempts at reform have quickly been deformed because there are too many careerists who are making money gaming the system - a system that also severely punishes those who don't go along with the corruption. Having worked for decades on trying to slow or close the revolving door to no avail, I believe rather drastic action needs to be implemented. These are not easy solutions, but I am now convinced that nothing else will stop the self-dealing.'

Under the UN Charter and Resolutions 1970 and 1973 it would be illegal for any entity to arm the 'rebels' in Libya and in so doing, this would constitute a breach of international law, leaving the perpetrators open to criminal liability. And has anyone researched the history of the 'rebel' movement?

The absurdity of trusting foreign-policy makers

Future of Freedom Foundation Future of Freedom Foundation
by James Bovard

04/13/11

The United States is attacking Libya on the basis of vague hopes that peace will triumph after the Allied bombing ceases. There are plenty of reasons to doubt whether a few hundred cruise missiles will beget harmony in the Libyan desert. But one of the biggest mistakes would be to assume that U.S. government policymakers understand what they are doing...

Kucinich: 'Frankly, we need to challenge the president'

The Raw Story

04/13/11

Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) is known for being outspoken, but in a Wednesday interview with website The Real News he went a bit further in his criticism of President Barack Obama, arguing that he is more aligned with Republicans than Democrats on matters of deficit and spending. 'Frankly, we need to challenge the president,' he said. ... Kucinich has previously called for a Democrat to step up and challenge Obama for the Democratic Partys 2012 nomination to the presidency, but said he would not be the person to do it...

Gegen die Finanzlobby eine Gegenlobby. Europäische Verbände und Nichtregierungsorganisationen gründen Finance Watch

'Im vergangenen Jahr hatten Abgeordnete im Europaparlament bemängelt, dass es gegen die massive Finanzlobby keine Gegenlobby in der Finanzbranche gebe. Die Parlamentarier stellten fest, dass sie bei den Versuchen zur 'Regulierung der Finanzmärkte und des Bankgewerbes' einem täglichen 'Druck des Finanz- und Banksektors' ausgesetzt seien, mit dem diese Einfluss auf die Entscheidungen nehmen. Das Ergebnis ist bekannt, denn obwohl der Sektor die Welt in die tiefste Krise nach der Großen Depression gestürzt hat, ist man mit der Regulierung nicht weit gekommen??

Gegen einen EU-Kriegseinsatz in Libyen

Tobias Pflüger, Mitglied des Parteivorstandes der LINKEN und dort zuständig für Friedens- und Europapolitik, erklärt zur heutigen Entscheidung der Europäischen Union, ein Einsatzkonzept für einen EU-Militäreinsatz in Libyen zu beschliessen:

DIE LINKE bedauert die Entscheidung der Europäischen Union (EU) als entscheidenden Schritt hin zu einer direkten Teilnahme der EU und damit Deutschlands am Krieg um Libyen. Die Aussagen der Regierungskoalition gegen eine Teilnahme am Krieg um Libyen stellen sich nun als pure Wahlkampfmanöver und Lügen heraus. Sollten wie geplant EU-Battlegroups eingesetzt werden, wäre dies der erste Einsatz der EU-Kampfgruppen überhaupt. Nicht nur Militärs weisen darauf hin, dass eine 'militärische Absicherung humanitärer Hilfe' einen möglichen Bodentruppeneinsatz auch deutscher Truppen bedeuten würde. Dies wäre dann unstrittig ein weiterer Kriegseinsatz der Bundeswehr. DIE LINKE wendet sich mit aller Entschiedenheit gegen die Teilnahme der EU und Deutschlands am Krieg um Libyen und wird sich weiterhin aktiv an Protesten gegen den Krieg um Libyen und insbesondere gegen die NATO-Bombardierungen beteiligen.

A policy chasing its tail

Antiwar.com
by Justin Raimondo

04/13/11

Stretching all the way back to the dawn of the American empire, when Teddy Roosevelt and his crew of 'progressive' imperialists planted Old Glory on battlefields from Cuba to the Philippines, the pattern of US overseas intervention has repeated itself down through the years. We 'liberate' a foreign people from the bonds of what we regard as tyranny, only to find that the presumed beneficiaries of this policy are lacking in gratitude - and blame us - us! - for their subsequent problems. Although, youll note, that doesnt stop them from seeking aid and assistance from the US Treasury: in fact, it encourages them...

Pennsylvanias New Jobs Czar Fought Environmental Regulations for Years

Abrahm Lustgarten, ProPublica: 'For years C. Alan Walker, a coal industry mogul and wealthy donor to Pennsylvanias Republican Party, clashed with environmental officials who tried to regulate his companies. He described them as 'vindictive,' 'out of control' and 'the most dangerous thing' affecting the country's welfare. In 1981 Walker even argued that the state should let someone from industry influence how environmental regulations were enforced.'

A United Nations diplomat charged with investigating claims of torture said Monday that he is 'deeply disappointed and frustrated' that U.S. defense officials have refused his request for an unmonitored visit with Pfc. Bradley Manning.

Conditions at the stricken facility have steadily deteriorated and now the station is intermittently spewing lethal amounts of radiation into the atmosphere and around the world. A French nuclear group has warned that children and pregnant mothers should protect themselves from the fallout.

Radiation Detected in Milk, Air and Water - Is America Safe?

Mike Ludwig, Truthout: 'Radioactive material from the troubled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in Japan has fallen in rain on major cities across the United States, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The agency has also detected radioactive materials in milk, air and drinking water. The EPA and other government agencies continue to insist that they expected to see some level of radiation on US soil after the Daiichi disaster, and the current radiation levels are not a cause of public health concern. Truthout has identified gaps in the governments data, however, and nuclear watchdogs are concerned that public officials are not telling Americans the whole story.'

How government has become suicidal

We in America have created suicidal government; the threatened federal shutdown and stubborn budget deficits are but symptoms. By suicidal, I mean that government has promised more than it can realistically deliver and, as a result, repeatedly disappoints by providing less than people expect or jeopardizing what they already have. But government cant easily correct its excesses, because Americans depend on it for so much that any effort to change the status arouses a firestorm of opposition that virtually ensures defeat...

Energiewende darf nicht zu sozialer Spaltung führen

Die Bundesgeschäftsführerin der LINKEN, Caren Lay, wirft der Bundesregierung Tatenlosigkeit bei der sozialen Ausgestaltung der Energiewende vor und fordert einen 'Schutzschirm für Stromverbraucher'. Caren Lay erklärt:

Die Bundesregierung spekuliert und redet über die sozialen Folgen der Energiewende. Währenddessen drohen die Stromriesen unverhohlen mit einer Strompreisexplosion, um die Kosten der Energiewende auf die Privathaushalte abzuwälzen. Die Tatenlosigkeit der Bundesregierung geht auf Kosten der Bevölkerung. Wir brauchen einen Schutzschirm für Stromverbraucherinnen und Stromverbraucher. Energie muss bezahlbar bleiben. Elektrizität und warme Wohnungen dürfen kein Privileg der Besserverdienenden sein. Die Beschwichtigungen von Röttgen reichen nicht aus. Wer sicher gehen will, dass Energie bezahlbar bleibt, muss die staatliche Preisaufsicht wieder einführen. Wir brauchen einen Preisstopp für die ohnehin seit Jahren steigenden Strompreise und Sozialtarife für einkommensschwache Haushalte. Die Regierung soll nicht reden sondern im Interesse der Verbraucherinnen und Verbraucher handeln.

Government should be banned from borrowing

Adam Smith Institute
by Eamonn Butler

04/11/11

For a very long time, it has seemed perfectly natural that governments could and should borrow -- to finance expensive wars or infrastructure projects, for example. Keynesian economists saw the occasional deficit as an important way of managing the economy. But once you give politicians the power to borrow, a huge moral hazard arises. It becomes just too tempting, and too easy, to borrow for the purposes of current consumption, rather than future benefit...

Soziale Energiewende darf keine Sprechblase bleiben

Die Vorsitzende der LINKEN, Gesine Lötzsch, unterstützt die Forderung der Bundesarbeitsministerin Ursula von der Leyen nach einer sozialen Energiewende. Sie erklärt:

Die Forderung der Bundesarbeitsministerin nach einem sozialen Atomausstieg klingt gut, darf aber nicht nur eine Sprechblase bleiben. Wenn die Bundesregierung lernfähig wäre, dann würde sie jetzt aus den Fehlern der Finanzkrise lernen. Die Kosten der Finanzkrise hat die Bundesregierung auf die Bürgerinnen und Bürger abgewälzt. Die Finanzindustrie zockt wieder nach den alten Spielregeln und kassiert wieder unglaubliche Boni. Wenn die Bundesregierung lernfähig wäre, dann würde sie das Atomkartell auflösen, die kommunalen Energieversorger stärken, den Atomausstieg im Grundgesetz verankern und Sozialtarife für Strom einführen.

Norman Solomon: 'You Cant Really Trust the Media'

By RT

While the American media discusses the dilemma in the Middle East to a degree, are we really getting the big picture back home? Normon Salomon of the Institute for Public Accuracy says that though the Internet and blogging has allowed a new outlook to be exposed, mainstream media still paints the picture of a paradisaical United States.

The American Dream As We Know It Is Obsolete

By Arun Gupta

However outdated the American Dream, organized labor and liberals desperately cling to it as they retreat in the face of the Republican and corporate blitzkrieg. In this war, the battlefield is social spending and the public sector, and for the losing side the situation is dire.

Two elder American statesman, at least one of which might better be put on trial for war crimes, have come up with an attempt to square the circle by reconciling 'realism' and 'idealism'-that is, neoconservative interventionism-in regard to 'humanitarian' wars.
They fail.

Power gives American presidents more choices than other leaders. U.S. military capabilities and wealth make almost any global action possible. And the Cold War that checked much of our proclivity for intervention is over. To fight as we do in Afghanistan, even most wealthy nations would have to hike taxes or slash other expenditures, provoking domestic opposition. We do it with less than 1 percent of gross domestic product, mostly borrowed. Because we can intervene relatively cheaply, temptation always beckons...

The American Conservative
by Jack Hunter

04/07/11

Certainly the Founding Fathers considered free speech more than just a mere 'great idea' but one of the bedrock principles of our republic, even enshrining it in the first amendment to our Constitution. That Graham would be willing to capitulate to radical Islamists by curtailing this precious freedom is particularly astounding when you consider that the Senator consistently and adamantly opposes curtailing the one policy that unquestionably 'inspires the enemy' more than any other. In fact, when it comes to looking out for America?s proper defense and actual security ? Lindsey Graham is arguably the most a...-backward politician alive today...

Where can you go to find 'trusted' news about Fukushima? Well according to Google News, only the mainstream sources are 'trusted' these days. Thats why theyve removed nearly all alternative news sites from their news index, leaving only the monotone, mindless canned mainstream news sources for people to read.

Kriegsgegner fordern, Waffen mit abgereichertem Uran zu ächten

In der Auseinandersetzung um den Libyeneinsatz der NATO flammt erneut der Streit um eine mögliche Verwendung von Munition mit abgereichertem Uran auf, den sogenannten DU-(Depleted Uranium)-Waffen. Kritiker wie die 'Internationale Kampagne zum Verbot von Uranwaffen' warnen vor dem Einsatz derartiger Bomben und Munition.

Die militärisch-zivile Plutonium-Sackgasse: MOX

Plutonium-Verarbeitung aus 'Mixed Oxide'-Brennelementen

Plutonium ist weltweit als 'das gefährlichste Element überhaupt' bekannt, welches in natürlicher Form fast nicht vorkommt: Auf 140 Milliarden Uranatome soll ein Plutoniumatom kommen. Weltweit wurden allein für den Bau von etwa 70.000 Atombomben ca. 250 Tonnen 'militärisches' Plutonium produziert (heute gibt es noch ca. 27.000 funktionsfähige Atomsprengköpfe!). Hinter sog. nuklearen Abrüstungsabkommen zwischen den USA und Russland über die 'Entsorgung von je 34 Tonnen ihres überschüssigen und veralteten Plutoniums der Atomsprengköpfe' verbirgt sich - werbewirksam als Abrüstung getarnt - ihr ungelöstes Entsorgungsproblem, an dem sie noch weiter Geld verdienen wollen.

Bundesregierung soll klarstellen: Keine Soldaten nach Libyen unter dem Vorwand von humanitärer Hilfe!

Zur Entscheidung der EU-Außenminister, EU-Militär für den Einsatz in Libyen zur Verfügung zu stellen, erklärt Christine Buchholz, Mitglied im Geschäftsführenden Vorstand der LINKEN:

Der Beschluss des EU-Rates EUFOR Lybia macht die Tür für den Einsatz von EU-Truppen in einem Bodenkrieg auf. Das entspräche dem Wunsch der französischen und britischen Regierung nach einem militärisch erzwungenen Regierungswechsel. Den EU-Außenministern geht es nicht um den Schutz der Bevölkerung, sondern um die militärische Handlungsfähigkeit und den Einfluss der Europäischen Union. Die Menschen in Libyen brauchen nicht noch mehr Soldaten, Bomben und Zerstörung, sondern eine Feuerpause und politische Verhandlungen. Die UNO hat klar und deutlich eine militärische Begleitung für Hilfslieferungen abgelehnt. Humanitäre Hilfe erfordert Neutralität, um effektiv zu sein. Eine militärische Begleitung, besonders durch Truppen aus Staaten, die an dem Krieg beteiligt sind, gefährdet Helfer und Hilfe. DIE LINKE fordert Außenminister Westerwelle auf, klarzustellen, dass die Bundeswehr nicht eingesetzt werden wird. Stattdessen soll die Bundesregierung den Druck auf ihre Bündnispartner für eine Verhandlungsinitiative erhöhen. Denn die USA, Frankreich und Großbritannien haben die Initiative für einen Waffenstillstand der Afrikanischen Union Anfang der Woche sabotiert - sie wollen einen mit Waffengewalt herbeigeführten Regierungswechsel.
