Imperialism is expensive. If a number of US states were to secede, America's imperialist adventure would suddenly be cash strapped. The following is written to environmental, Libertarian Party, populist, pro-marijuana, and log cabin republicans in Nevada. Anarchists should also support secession in their states (as a short term goal), to remove a major barrier to 3rd world revolution.
Anti-vivisection activists in the UK are demanding an independent judician inquiry into the vivisection industry. Contending vivisection is a fundamentally flawed scientific methodology which murders millions -- humans and non-humans -- annually, for profit, UK activists assert their right to challenge legislatively protected crime.

An audio interview with Paige Knight of Hanford Watch concerning the Department of Energy's current proposal to move nuclear waste from many of our nations smaller nuclear sites to storage at Hanford Nuclear Reservation.

Israel has pioneered the science of making life unlivable with as little violence as possible. The Palestinians are not merely provoked into reacting; they have no rational choice but to react. If they didn't, things would just get worse faster, with no hope of relief. Israel is an innovator in the search for a squeaky-clean sadism.
"We should always be reviewing things like Posse Comitatus and other laws if we think it ties our hands in protecting the American people." - Gen. Eberhart.

Clearly the Federal Government is expecting a mass revolt, probably as the bottom falls out of the stock market in the next few weeks.

I don't like war. I don't like killing. Probably most God-fearing Americans don't. But when our duly elected President makes decisions, we should take them to heart. He is working for our best interests, right? There is no reason to go out and start a war other than for the advancement of a democratic and just society, is there? Sure, its the United States, we're allowed to speak our minds. But we can't go too far with that liberty, can we?
Cheney is a terrorist liar. He's about to unleash the next 911.

"The survival of the labor cult is nowhere more striking than in the desperate faith in a job wonder in the totally flexibilized service society. The real core of this dystopia consists in a brave new world of the working poor who shine the shoes of the remaining business men of the dying work society, sell them contaminated hamburgers or guard their shopping centers." This book review of Robert Kurz' "Radical Capitalism Criticism" is translated from the German.

Forest Service officials also said there is no need for concern about Basil because she is breaking the law and has forfeited her rights to any protection.
