When it comes to the global oil trade, the dollar reigns supreme. But it has a challenger.
...Ethnic Conflicts and Global Economic Instability. Interview with Dilip Hiro author and journalist, conducted by Between the Lines'Scott Harris
This weekend, get a group of friends together and meet at your house. Then go door to door in your neighborhood to make sure all you neighbors agree that America should not go to war with Iraq. That is "defensive action" against a horrible thing - a possible war; what we also need is "offensive action" to stop the current realities of the School of the Americas (SOA, now WHISC) and the attacks on American civil liberties.
A gathering of all concerned peoples regarding the saftey and longevity of our National Forests. Our Senator Wyden is currently undecided in the current propositions (being the downgrading of many of our current enviromental laws) and we wish to help him reach a positive decision.
Heavenly aversion therapy?
"Though it would be easy to make a case against you for bullying the world toward World War III, for ecologically destroying Earth, and for threatening all prospects of a peaceful and prosperous future for our nation and for all nations, I will not do so."

We are gathering signatures for a petition to persuade one of our representatives to endorse the Impeachment Resolution written by Francis A. Boyle, Professor of law at the University of Illinois.
Great article explaining why the idea of preemption will fail. The author uses North Korea as an example to prove his point.
Ye have prayed it; if ye still desire it, speak!
"Swedes have always been generous in providing economic aid to countries with underdeveloped economies," said Erland Carlsson, the parliamentarian who conceived the Palme Plan. "But we've done little to promote democratic development in underdeveloped democracies."

Most immediate, effective method of contesting unilateral US power is to accelerate its economic crisis. China's strategists suggest the yuan should replace the dollar as east Asia's reserve currency--the euro now challenges US dollar's position as international means of oil payment. Dollar's world trade, oil market dominance is all that permits US Treasury to sustain America's massive deficit, as it prints inflation-free money for global circulation. If global dollar demand falls, currency value falls with it, and speculators will shift assets to euros, yen, or even yuan--then the US economy will begin tottering.
Angola gave a perfuctory response to a letter against a preventive strike.
Mexico, Chile, Angola and Cameroon should receive emails at their UN embassies in New York.

heard this song so i'm passing it on for others to sing out loud and strong
I just don't get it!
Yesterday the war on drugs continued with the arrests of 55 people involved with the selling of glass pipes and bongs across the country and on the internet. ASScroft says;
"With the advent of the Internet, the illegal drug paraphernalia has exploded," he said. "Quite simply, the illegal drug paraphernalia industry has invaded the homes of families across the country without their knowledge." Apparently since people willnot be able to find four foot glass bongs, they will no longer want to get high, nor will they have anything to smoke out of (right). What's next seizing apples and plastic bottles?
I just tried to call the white house comment line and both Oregon senate offices i DC as part of the Virtual March on Washington and am happy to report that the phone system is currently overloaded with anti-war calls.
The targets: CBS, ABC, NBC, Fox news, CNN, PBS and their war propaganda!
UK Prime Minister Tony Blair is facing a rebellion from his own party's MPs as he leads the country towards war against Iraq
It's been a bad run. From February 1, when the space shuttle Columbia blazed like a meteor across the southwest skies, till today, when the roof of a Toys 'R Us store collapsed on the shoppers inside, things haven't gone well for the American empire.

the radical anti-war committee (rawc) has called for an anti-war protest on saturday. here's a poster by someone who's not in rawc, but who appreciates their calls-to-action.

As Jean Paul Sartre once wrote there is 'no exit'- we all have to make choices and face the consequences.
Not until we have learned as individuals and as a culture to empower ourselves, and to stop letting the fascist powers-that-be forcefeed us our lives and our news, will we have real positive change in the world.
Act Against War! Stop Military Recruitment! Join us to confront the lies of military recruiters and demand a meaningful and safe existence for our youth.
Radical Anti-War Committee is calling for you to join us in an anti-war protest at 1 PM, Saturday, March 1,2003 at Holladay Park (NE 11th & Multnomah) near Lloyd Center.
We need more people like this who can stand up for what is right in life
Ari Fleischer, spokesman for the Bush adminstration, was practically laughed off the podium while lying about US attempts to buy votes in the Security Council.
Let us hope this is a harbinger of things to come. We have not seen anything like this since Ron Ziegler said the Watergate break in was a "Third Rate burglary". As the lies become thicker and thicker, and more transparent, even this normally compliant press may become more daring. We'll see.
I went alongside thousands of my colleagues tonight to the convention center downtown to vote on a strike. While none of us truly knew what to expect, what with rumors and emails flying about like confetti, the overwhelming sense was that the impasse would not end.
And all the email addresses put together for you to cut and paste:

virtual march, "Wednesday 26th all day: national call-in to congress for Peace;

Talk about two sides that lie. The idea of a debate is a joke, alright.
A tentative agreement has been reached which is as yet unsigned. In the meanwhile, the Portland Teachers have voted to go on strike

so i posted this comment to the F15 photo-essay feature that went up, but
due to technical difficulties, it was up for about an hour and then gone. i'm reposting this now because it is important to me to have my voice heard on this matter...

is this true? can anyone confirm?
A Pew Research center poll found that 44 percent of blacks support a war with Iraq, the lowest level of any group surveyed. Overall 66 percent of Americans favored military force, with support at 73 percent among whites and 67 percent among Hispanics. The February survey of 1,254 adults had a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points, and slightly larger for the subgroups.
"My brother is a Marine and he just left to go (overseas) last week," Keisha Bates said. "It's mainly our people over there -- we're losing our people."
"You are not going to decide whether there is war in Iraq or not," the diplomat said U.S. officials told him. "That decision is ours, and we have already made it. It is already final. The only question now is whether the council will go along with it or not. The council's unity is at stake here."
It has come to our attention that activists have been receiving strange visits and phone calls from unknown people. Activists have gotten calls from people attempting to find out where they work - "Hi. Jane/Joe Activist? This is so-n-so. I need to talk to you about XYZ. Please call me back with your work number so I can get in touch." Additionally, unidentified people have shown up at their jobs asking around for them.
Join RAWC for an ation against military recruitment on Saturday March 1st at 1pm. We will be meeting at Holladay Park (Ne 11th & Multnomah across from the Lloyd Center)

IDAHO - On Wednesday, March 5, students throughout the nation and around the world will be participating in the National Youth and Student Peace Coalition strike against the war with Iraq. Events will include campus walkouts, student strikes, rallies, and organized protests. High Schools and College Campuses throughout Idaho will join the walkout between 12 noon and 2:30 pm.
I keep hearing the anti-war protesters chant, "No blood for oil! No blood for oil!" But what they never seem to say is exactly how much oil we're talking about. Don't you think that's pertinent information? Are we talking a gallon of oil for every 10 gallons of blood? Or is it more like 30 gallons of oil for every pint of blood? Because if it's the latter, maybe a blood-oil exchange would be a good idea.
Whatever the real merits of the case against Iraq, again and again the administration has cited evidence that turns out to be misleading or worthless "garbage after garbage after garbage," according to one U.N. official.
From behind the locked glass doors of City Council Chambers, Eugene police officers video taped the Eugene CopWatch Press Conference announcing their new website. (article 1)
The feds have started shutting down web sites that they find offensive and redirecting those sites to government sites so that they can track and record who visits which sites. This is a step toward censoring the Internet and using it to monitor people's browsing habits, which is domestic spying.

The People versus the Powerful is the oldest story in human history. At no
point in history have the Powerful wielded so much control. At no point in history has the active and informed involvement of the People, all of them, been more absolutely required. The tide can be stopped, and the men who desire empire by the sword can be thwarted. It has already begun, but it must not cease. These are men of will, and they do not intend to fail.
Am I crazy or have you noticed this too?
The following guide will help you plan, prepare, and get ready in the event that martial law threatens you safety and well being. It is divided into two parts. The first part describes the framework for martial law and the second part the actions to take in preparing or the actual declaration of martial law.

Take a look at free speech in action. If this is the way our government ant it's overzealous agents treat our own very white people, can we wonder why the rest of the world is a little bit put off by us?
