"Minutemen" / "Save Our State" / "National Vanguard" / "National Alliance" / Klu Klux Klan / Stormfront... They're all the same: Christian organizations whose membership is comprised of the usual Christian hate mongering pedophiles.
Phase One of the continuing war started with Desert Storm on Jan. 17, 1991, followed by Phase Two, the sanctions, and Phase 3, the invasion — this last being the "three week war" that has so far lasted three years and 10 months, with no end in sight.
Sexual Abuse in the U.S. Military
The Bush administration is making sweeping personnel changes in the top leadership of the US military, intelligence and diplomatic establishment in preparation for a major escalation of the war in Iraq.
On Friday, the White House announced it was removing both Gen. George Casey, the senior commander in Iraq, and Gen. John Abizaid, the head of Central Command, which has overall responsibility for US forces in the region. Both of the Army generals had repeatedly expressed reservations about the plan—to be announced next week by Bush—to carry out a "surge" of tens of thousands of additional troops in an effort to break Iraqi resistance to US occupation and domination.
"The American people demonstrated in the November elections that they do not believe your current Iraq policy will lead to success and that we need a change in direction for the sake of our troops and the Iraqi people. "
"...it is time to begin to move our forces out of Iraq and make the Iraqi political leadership aware that our commitment is not open ended, that we cannot resolve their sectarian problems, and that only they can find the political resolution required to stabilize Iraq." LETTER TO BUSH

...Persian Gulf~Interview with Trita Parsi, president of the National Iranian- American Council, conducted by Between the Lines' Scott Harris
Greed triumphed over fear for a few years- but then fear came back. The government has to do whatever it can to put an end to the growing disparity between imports and exports. The only way to fight a weak dollar is to streengthen it. The crash can be deferred, but not stopped.
"How can we sustain ourselves as the United States of America given the stupid and ineffective warmaking, the constitutionally insensitive lawgiving, and the monarchal economics of this president? He cannot mourn but is a figure of such moral vacancy as to make us mourn for ourselves." E.L. Doctorow
But I guess if you want to survive domestic violence, or be protected from harassment and abuse, it's all about who you know.

Both top leaders of the congressional Democrats voiced the desire for bipartisan collaboration with the Republican-controlled White House. Taking the gavel as Speaker, Pelosi said, "I accept this gavel in the spirit of partnership, not partisanship, and look forward to working with you on behalf of the American people. In this House, we may belong to different parties, but we serve one country."

Humanists believe in a scientific, rather than a supernatural or divine explanation for how we all (plants, animals, planets, stars, galaxies) got to where we are.
Humanists believe that people are capable of both good and evil all on their own, and we work hard for the good. Humanists believe it is our purpose to become our very best selves, take care of each other, and to take good care of the planet where we live. We act this way not to earn some eternal reward, or to avoid some eternal punishment, but because it's ethical. Humanists believe that intelligence and reason form the underpinnings of a deliberate and integrated life. Humanists don't believe in angels, all the animals in a boat, astrology, Atlantis, auras, bigfoot, divine birth, faith healing, heaven, hell, life after death, the Loch Ness monster, miracles, numerology, original sin, people living 900 years, rising again after three days, sacred tortillas, Satan, spirit journeys, or walking on water. We know others are excited or comforted by these notions, but they exist only because people want them to.
The Whitehouse is in damage control over the bungled execution of Saddam Hussein. The hurried execution backfired in the worst possible way; a vanquished leader should never be allowed to continue his work from the 'grave'. Anthropologists are familiar with appeasement rituals and ceremonies for the dead, which are common to numerous cultures. In the wake of Saddam's bungled execution these curious rituals begin to make sense.

Oury Jalloh burned to death in a police cell in Dessau, east Germany, on the 7th of January, 2005. Two years have now gone by; two years in which the court in Dessau has effectively blocked any hearings from taking place against the responsible police officers. This alone is evidence enough that neither the police nor the judiciary is willing to see that the events surrounding the death of Oury Jalloh are clarified.
