Graves of thousands found in Iraq
The real reasons for the Iraq war are of no consolation to little Iraqi children like Ali Abbas, who lost both parents, was badly burned and had both his arms blown off.
Is the Bush administration sufficiently challenged or so blatantly confident that they do not feel obligated into producing such evidence that justified an invasion into Iraq?
I was in the process of adding my comment but it disappeared. By the way, I didn't see "health" listed among the topics to choose from.

I thought I recalled an article on here (but maybe it was a different imc) about IDF coming over to train police, or else police going over there to learn. When I mentioned this to activists I know, they were surprised and hadn't heard of it.
This book review of Dirk Kurbjuweit's "Our Efficient Life. The Dictatorship of the Economy and its Consequences" is translated from the German in the cyber journal Telepolis. "McKinsey's optimization program of tightenings, rationalizations and profit maximization, the program of increased efficiency, has psych-social consequences. In the supposedly athletic society, a competitive pressure clearly overstrains many people. The implicit demand is that the multitude should use the elite as a performance standard.."

"What is even more bizarre to me is that the National Rifle Association would have one of its own members arrested for passing out literature that supports the Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms."
The presence of American troops in Saudi Arabia came because of Saddam Hussein, and they withdrew upon his ouster. Nevertheless, the internal and external political Islamic movement disregarded this truth.
New Hampshire is known as "The Granite State" and many residents of the northern state felt that the face embodied its motto: "Live Free or Die."
On Saturday, all that was left on the mountainside were cables that had been used to shore it up. Observers said it looked as though the ledges that made up the image had just broken away, leaving a giant mountainside scar.

The U.S. government this week launched its Arabic language satellite TV news station for mostly Muslim Iraq. It is being produced in a studio - Grace Digital Media - controlled by fundamentalist Christians who are rabidly pro-Israel. That's grace as in "by the grace of God." A fundamentalist Christian millionaire, Cheryl Reagan, last year wrested control of Federal News Service, a transcription news service, from its former owner, Cortes Randell. Randell says he met Reagan at a prayer meeting, brought her in as an investor in Federal News Service, and then she forced him out of his own company.

William J. Bennett, author of "The Book of Virtues" and one of the nation's most relentless moral crusaders, is a high-rolling gambler who has lost more than $8 million at casinos.
The Washington Monthly said on its website that "over the last decade Bennett has made dozens of trips to casinos in Atlantic City and Las Vegas, where he is a 'preferred customer' at several of them, and sources and documents provided to The Washington Monthly put his total losses at more than $8 million."
Speaking on the "World Day of Freedom of the Press," Iran's Minister of Culture and Islamic Guidance Ahmad said that the war in Iraq proves the world has moved to a new phase of a free, multi-media press.

This evening, a small but intrepid group of Massers massed at the north park blocks. Fifteen we were, in numbers not age, but more than fifteen were the coppers. What is a road pyrate to do in such dire straits? Ah ha! A secret, passed by word of mouth, tricked the coppers did we!
Every year the Secret Gathering of Gnosistics reviews their gnosis and summarizes this in the form of a commissioned fine ink drawing. The drawing is then elaborated upon in an essay in the form of a rant, and shared in gatherings throughout the year as Christmas Cards. Last year was a summary of where 9/11 has brought us so far and some foresight of where we are going. Always mystical documents at heart, this work of art also contains a lesson on the pentegon and transendental meditation.

Now there is a new and demonstrable connection, but it is not the kind that the Bush Administration had in mind. It turns out that a money trail runs—albeit rather circuitously—from the lucrative business of rebuilding Iraq to the fortune behind Osama bin Laden. His estranged family, a sprawling, extraordinarily wealthy Saudi Arabian dynasty, is a substantial investor in a private equity firm founded by the Bechtel Group of San Francisco--also the global construction and engineering company to which the U.S. government recently awarded the first major multimillion-dollar contract to reconstruct war-ravaged Iraq.
At the end of the day, unconditionally, do you or don't
you stand with the masses again Imperialism and for the rights of self-determination? We can not carry on in the Imperialist countries with our National Chauvenism, Opertunism, and Ultra-Leftism and call our selves brothers and sisters of the rest of the world. One is reminded of the Martyred comrade, John Brown who swore a blood feud with slavery, then killed and died for its abolition. If only he were alive today!!!
Rumsfeld declined requests by FORTUNE to elaborate on his role. But ABB spokesman Bjoern Edlund has told FORTUNE that "board members were informed about this project." And other ABB officials say there is no way such a large and high-stakes project, involving complex questions of liability, would not have come to the attention of the board. "A written summary would probably have gone to the board before the deal was signed," says Robert Newman, a former president of ABB's U.S. nuclear division who spearheaded the project. "I'm sure they were aware."
Not to disagree with any of the criticisms as to how the police attacked the Mass, I would still call it a successful ride!
On April 24 supporters of black death-row political prisoner Mumia Abu-Jamal gathered at Philadelphia City Hall for the "Death Row? Shut it Down!" demonstration organized to commemorate both Abu-Jamal's birthday as well as the passage of the 1996 Anti-Terrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act.

Broad Domestic Role Asked for C.I.A. and the Pentagon
By ERIC LICHTBLAU and JAMES RISEN
With 160 million users, nowhere else in this world is e-mail more part of the lifeblood of the culture and the economy than America. Soonn voters will either get commercial regulation of spam by the next election or they will insist on moral regulation. Libertarians tempted to fight for an absolutely unregulated internet should hesitate before unleashing such forces.
