A dicussion carried on from other posts below about the possibility of anarchism being put into practice. I argue that anarchism is an ongoing drive and that its theory is fundamentally different from utopian or "ideal society" theories like commununism.

Job creation has been in reverse since Bush took office in January 2001. In 2000 the economy created 1.7 million jobs, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Since Bush's inauguration, the economy has lost almost 1.5 million jobs. During 2000 the unemployment rate averaged 4.1 percent and fell to a 30-year low of 3.9 percent in October 2000. The rate today is 5.7 percent and rapidly rising. During the first year of the Bush administration, 1.3 million Americans slipped back into poverty.

Most important of all, we absolutely must forget that President Ronald Reagan dispatched a special envoy to meet Saddam Hussein in December 1983. It's essential to forget this for three reasons. Firstly, because the awful Saddam was already using gas against the Iranians - which is one of the reasons we are now supposed to go to war with him. Secondly, because the envoy was sent to Iraq to arrange the re-opening of the US embassy - in order to secure better trade and economic relations with the Butcher of Baghdad. Thirdly, because the envoy was - wait for it - Donald Rumsfeld.
Where the hell is this thing?
Time to get down to the details
I believe the divestiture petition will poison the Palestinians fight for liberty in the long run. If Pro-Palestinian groups at the University of Michigan are against terrorism, why are they bringing supporters of terrorism to campus? On October 12-14, a pro- Palestinian group called Student Allied for Freedom an Equality (SAFE) will be "PROUDLY HOSTING the Second National Student Conference on the Palestine Solidarity Movement."What's up with that?
Iraq crossed western oil corporations 30 years ago, and the oil executives have long memories. In 1972, Saddam Hussein and his Ba'ath party nationalized the oil holdings of the Iraq Petroleum Company, which actually was owned by a group of western oil companies including Royal Dutch and American and French firms.

Tens of thousands said it together on October 6--in dozens of rallies and gatherings across the U.S., on banners and T-shirts, signs and songs, in chants, speeches and a solemn common pledge of resistance.

The first casualties of the "attack Iraq" policy?
PORTLAND, Ore. -- In an unusual move, the federal government has warned the state of Oregon that it could be interfering with national food producers if voters pass a ballot measure requiring all genetically modified foods sold in the state to be labeled. If voters pass the measure Nov. 5, Oregon will be the first state to require labeling of so-called GE foods. Europe and Japan already require genetically modified crop labeling on food items.

These plans make clear that the invasion of Iraq will be a war of imperialist conquest and plunder. It will signal a new epoch of colonialism, in which the US seeks to use its military supremacy to dominate the globe—seizing territories, grabbing resources and subjugating the peoples of the world to the dictates of American-based transnational corporations and banks.
