a poem for Sparrow
Picture President Bush and Saddam Hussein sharing a cell in The Hague after they have been tried and convicted for crimes against humanity.
Sound improbable? Maybe the bunking up in the cell part is improbable, but the words "war crimes" and "President Bush" are starting to be uttered in the same sentence with total seriousness in the wake of Persian Gulf War II.

War on Irag
Such is a ''limited'' campaign, targets chosen ''humanely'' according to a strategy of ''decapitation.'' We can leave until later the question of who and how many are dead and wounded.
But this isn't just about the IPRC, which is a non-profit group. When I talk about the IPRC in the below article, PLEASE, PLEEEEASE, imagine that the IPRC is any group that YOU belong to which is a mostly caucasian-american organization. We need UNITY in the PRO-PEACE organizations and this article will help you to open your eyes to the UNITY problems that have been ignored for far too long which is how the WAR was permitted!! True love & UNITY!!!

All Africa.com reports that 'for the first time the IMF has admitted that forcing developing countries to open their markets to foreign investors could increase the risk of financial crises. That has been said before - but not by IMF ... And to twist the knife, the IMF report says there is "little evidence" that its policies on liberalisation encourage economic growth in poor countries.

I saw some Bullshit today, and this specific instance deserves further action to be taken as a result. A few blocks from the peace camp, In the middle of a critical mass, a girl on a green cruiser got taken down and arrested for no reason, i'd like to help her.
While disabled people are forced onto the streets, then denied access to medication, then excluded from sitting, standing or lying anywhere, Portland Mayor Vera Katz drives the Portland economy towards catastrophe. She is dedicating millions towards supporting her business friends and attempting to deny the Constitutional Rights of her constituents. Is it worth it?
THE US Marines have suffered an embarrassment with reports last night that one of their most prized investigators may have defected. Takoma, the Atlantic bottle-nosed dolphin, had been in Iraq for 48 hours when he went missing on his first operation to snoop out mines.

A UK soldier is reported to have been killed and others injured in a "friendly fire" incident in southern Iraq.
The latest fatality, apparently involving a US A-10 aircraft, bears uncomfortable similarities to an incident in the 1991 Gulf war when nine British soldiers died after their vehicles were attacked by US tankbusters.
The war-makers are routinely hacking anti-war sites. Activists can, and probably should, use the same tools to bring down the criminal corporate media websites.
