The Gulf War never ended. Meanwhile the peace movement waits for the war to start....
Title: "Is it OK to Support Terrorism if it's only a Little Bit?" Sponsored by: Office of National Drug Control Policy
In but one example, the San Diego Union Tribune reported on July 27, 2002 that the agency recently failed to process more than 200,000 change of address forms and then unceremoniously dumped them in the largest underground records facility in the world - an abandoned mine near Kansas City - putting hundreds of thousands at risk of wrongful arrest and deportation for failing to report a change of address.
Today's statement from Congressman Bernie Sanders of Vermont.
"The Democrats claim the Republican party is the party of racism
but I'm here to tell you that's just not true." --The Porcine Butcher of Truth on the E.I.B. network
The government's Information Awareness Office--you know, the Defense agency that's running the Total Information Awareness Program, the huge database that will track everything about everyone in the US and beyond, helmed by convicted felon John Poindexter--keeps getting more shy. First, the IAO took down the biographies of its senior staff.
Now, the IAO has removed its eye-death-ray logo, which was denounced far and wide as being Orwellian, Masonic, and just plain creepy as hell.
Perhaps most pathetic is American liberals' constant looking to the Democratic Party as savior. Many progressive sites on the Internet display counters with the number of days remaining in Bush's term. "Excuse me!" as many Americans annoyingly say when making a rude point, but are we talking about the same Democratic Party that has not said a word about mistreatment of prisoners, torture, and murder since 9/11?
Even before Iraq released its weapons-program dossier on 7 December 2002, it was said that the report would name the corporations that supplied Iraq with the equipment and other material it needed to develop biological, chemical, and nuclear weapons. Soon after the report was released, those suspicions were confirmed.

"With the full backing and support by the US, President Arroyo as the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of the Philippines has unleashed a most brutal war against progressive and militant forces. Even the unarmed, legal democratic movement is not spared. More than 20 members from my party, Bayan Muna, have been murdered in the past 18 months since Arroyo became President. One-hundred forty-eight (148) activists have been killed in this short period."
The head of the government's Total Information Awareness project, which aims to root out potential terrorists by aggregating credit-card, travel, medical, school and other records of everyone in the United States, has himself become a target of personal data profiling.
A friend sent me this take of the olde 12 Days of Christmas carol. As a far-leftist myself, I found it very funny so thought to pass it on to Indymedia. Who says revolution can't be fun? :)

yay for the kids! this action was a helluvalot more lively than most of what you see here in Portland that passes for a protest (especially those tepid, permitted affairs the liberals throw). these young people took the street loudly and unapologetically and recieved -- APPLAUSE from bystanders. no one was "alienated" by their lively behavior, and the police were nowhere to be seen. it was one of those beautiful outpourings of energy that can really give you hope, when middle-aged activists start to get you down with all their concerns about "legitimacy" and crap. fuck that noise. and GO KIDS!

A friend alerted us to this surprisingly cogent discourse between a rather conservative "independent thinker" and a survivor of psychiatry who is our friend. Those of you who are familiar with the debates raging between uncritical or ideologically-challenged doves of the unaccountable institution of psychiatry and persons who still stand to lose their liberty for daring to speak up against them, may find new meaning. Those completely unfamiliar may want to educate themselves of this growing phenomenon.

No one in the Massachusetts Avenue Heights neighborhood of Northwest Washington knows what is going on at the house of their neighbor, the vice president of the United States. Residents say the blasts, which last three to five seconds each, have been going off two or three times a day, as early as 7 a.m. and as late as 11 p.m., for nearly two months. When a woman feared it was a bomb or an earthquake, she called the police.

Attacking DARPA's Total Information Awareness effort and publicizing satellite photographs of John Poindexter's (head of TIA) house is probably what got me this. I guess that when it comes to surveillance, what is good for the goose is not good for the gander.
After receiving probably way too much attention the Information Awareness Office has removed their orwellian logos, banners, and diagrams. Luckily for us they've been preserved here and by others.

Top-secret Iraq Report Reveals U.S. Corporations, Gov't Agencies and Nuclear Labs Helped Illegally Arm Iraq
basically just a bad poem written by a politically angry teen unschooler.
I just saw a "report" on CNN claiming that the U.S. Intelligence services have "reliable information" pointing towards Saddam "manufacturing a humanitarian crisis" in Iraq to gain sympathy from the world's population.
Apparently, Falun Gong followers have committed an act of SATELLITE SABOTAGE, hacking into the Chinese state-owned satellite by beaming signals at it. Beijing government broadcasts to millions of rural residents were disrupted and, in some cases, were replaced by pro-Falun Gong messages and images.
Taiwan's investigators from the Directorate General of Telecommunications and police swept the hills around Wulai with signal-finding equipment. The coordinates given by Beijing as the source of the signals lay near the top of a steeply rising summit, unreachable by car. The search came up empty.

"In Los Angeles and San Diego alone, as many as 1000 people have been arrested when they tried to comply with new INS rules requiring them to re-register with immigration authorities," explained Mikel Clayhold of the PPRC. "We must all speak out against this unjust and immoral attack on our Islamic and immigrant brothers and sisters whose lives have been brutalized by the INS."
