Monday, December 2, 2002 As a conflict between the United States and Saddam Hussein looms, the future of Iraq - and its billions of barrels of oil - may be decided soon. The U.S. State Department has 15 different working groups planning the future of the country. Yet spokesman Greg Sullivan says "there have been no discussions on oil." Outside the U.S. government, the debate about Iraq's oil is already underway.

A force of habits: Nuns raid silo site
Trio tweaks nose of military, refuses to renounce activism
This letter is the new pinnacle of the surprising move by hardline conservatives to actually stand up for their values and oppose the anti-republican actions of the Bush administration.
I think I'm starting to like the GOP. The Dems seem to be total patsies for Bush's party line, while his best buddies run for the hills.
Clear Channel is, undisputedly, the media Goliath. There is but one shining, undefiled hope- public access. Format TV is a long-due concept that couldn't have come at more vital time.
Before 9/11 conspiracy investigation hearings can be convened, INS will deport Rudi Dekkers, Florida flight school, terrorism, cocaine
this is about my run in with "Ed", the Store Director for Fred Meyer store #125. Ed, IMO, is a smuggish hater of the poor (though he claims not to hate poor people). am i going to "smear" Ed? Yeah, a little bit, cuz I think he epitomizes what America is really about: people who pretend to care because acknowledging ones own evilness is so not cool.
Whitehouse spokesman claims that the pResident and defense secratary have a "solid basis" for their claims of Iraq's posession of weapons of mass destruction, then attempts to recruit Iraqi scientists to supply the "proof" that the eXecutive department already claims to have.

If words can break the frozen soul (Kafka), these words of Mark Twain on the war momentum qualify. On the eve of WW1, Jeanette Rankin warned: "You can no more win a war than you can win an earthquake." Ethically, no nation is alone as no individual is alone. Theologically, pretending to invulnerability is pretending to be God. War is a racket with disguises and justifications, a midwife to self-destruction condemned by the UN Charter and international law

Barbarity kept under the radar screen: an investigative report on

Fleischer insists the world knows Iraq has prohibited weapons and it is up to Saddam to prove he doesn't. I guess it doesn't matter what the UN inspectors find or don't find.
Fukuoka, Japan -- Robert W. Norris, a Vietnam War conscientious objector (CO) now living in Japan, knows what it means for a writer to persevere.

Both books are published by Jacobyte Books, an independent Australian publisher. Jacobyte's homepage: http://www.jacobytebooks.com

The policy is causing rumblings of discontent from some career officials. They say the policy threatens to reward employees for political loyalty and could force career civil servants to compete against well-connected political appointees for the millions of dollars in bonus money that their bosses distribute each year. The Bush administration did not help matters last week with the announcement that it was setting pay increases for career federal employees below what Congress was seeking.

its nose is a 12,000-pound rotating turret which will house the ABL's five-foot telescope - the lens through which three of four onboard lasers will be fired.

The laser and optical systems are controlled by a sophisticated computer system that can simultaneously track and prioritize potential targets.
