Call to Action Against GE Trees and International Paper
The broad mass of a nation . . . will more easily fall victim to a big lie than to a small one.
- Adolf Hitler
"To the extent that their background and values determine the news, it is naive to expect that journalists with their establishment-centered professional training to be sympathetic with anything more than a kind of elite centrism, far away from progressive left-wing politics and regulations.. The conservative critique of the liberal news media is an intellectual failure, riddled with contradictions and inaccuracy." Owners and advertisers determine the news, not journalists.
"The global justice movement has been right to focus on the pain inflicted around the world by the IMF and the World Bank, the collectors of debt incurred by despots and corrupt elites but paid in the life-blood of ordinary people..The social democratic compromise of the postwar years has been replaced by a virulent, grasping form of rule which is moving to outlaw the possibility of protest and democratic expression, The consequences of neoliberalism have forced a frigthtened awareness of what is at stake.."
Within Israel there are really 4 levels of citizenship, the first three being various levels of Jewish participation in Israeli society, which are thoroughly racialized. Beneath all these layers of Jews come--4th--the Palestinian citizens.
"At the end of each show, Strommer and the Mescaleros performed a cover of the classic resistance song The Harder They Come, the Harder They Fall by reggae great Jimmy Cliff..
And I keep on fighting for the things I want.. But I'd rather be a free man in my grave Than living as a puppet or a slave."
Henry Ford (founder of the Ford Motor Company in 1903) stated: "It is well that the people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning." (see The Foundation Economy by Fred Eggerton).
In this expose, we are presenting numerous quotes from past US Presidents and polictians and demonstrate how control and profits of the private Central Banks has been the catalyst behind many wars. Note that all four presidents who tried to end the banking monopolies were assassinated (Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley, Kennedy) and anyone who tries to expose these Banking Dynasties is demonized like Rep. Congressman James Traficant in 1993 and many others.

On the night of wednesday June 11th a new resurgence of student revolt erupted onto the streets of Tehran...
Here is an excellent article comparing the lies about WMDs used to justifiy Anglo-American aggression against Iraq with the lies about "Ethnic Cleansing" used to justify Anglo-American aggression against Yugoslavia--a war which many Liberals here supported. In both cases, only the pretext (or Lie) is different. The same Liberals like Robin Cook and Claire Short in England, or the Demo-rats here in America, who rightfully criticize Bush's lies about WMD are also guitly of War Crimes themselves. Apparently, Liberals don't mind Wars of Aggression and the lies used to justify them--as long it comes with a guilt assuaging "Human Rights" Propaganda Pretext.
If the presence of the life process is considered to be one of the exclusive characteristics of living creatures, what then are we to say about seeds? Does it ever occur to you that in those monocellulars "that have survived till today" the life process has virtually never come to a stop since the very beginning of their existence? Because of the obscurity of the line separating the living from the dead, is it not possible for us to claim that there is "life" in atoms?

WALBRAN CREEK, Canada - Basted by 800 years of rain, the cedars in this Vancouver Island valley have fattened to old-growth trees of classic proportions. "If you tried to log this forest in the States, there would be a
hippie chained to every tree," said Ken Wu, an organizer for the Western Canada Wilderness Committee. Weyerhaeuser has logged more than 800 acres in this valley and in coming years plans to log most of the big timber on 5,800 more acres.

Apparently the police do not consider themselves to be the only suspicious, militant looking force lurking the streets of Sacramento. When activists were given citations for jaywalking Thursday the 19th, two things became apparent. First of all, freedom of speech means nothing if dissenters are intimidated into silence. Second of all, the police obviously consider this movement threatening. Those impacted do not know whether to be angry or flattered.

Well before the Bush cabal's calls for a war on Iraq, the administration knew the aluminum tubes obtained by Iraq were not for uranium enrichment. It also knew the documents stating Iraq had obtained uranium from Niger were forgeries. Bush lied about these anyway to sell the war to America.
"What is stated is that we are tearing the entire system of international law to shreds including the UN charter, and that we are going to carry out an aggressive war - which we will call `preventive' - at any time we choose and that we will rule the world by force..We can be quite confident on one thing. The reasons we are given can't possibly be the reasons..So we can dismiss the official reasons."This interview isfrom Argentina

Family members of victims of the terror attacks say the White House has smothered every attempt to get to the bottom of the outrageous intelligence failures that took place on its watch... "We've been fighting for nearly 21 months... As soon as we started looking for answers we were blocked, put off and ignored at every stop of the way. We were shocked. The White House is just blocking everything."

Hey, this is the time to stand up and be counted.... In case you hadn't realized yet, the "war" in Iraq is not over. In fact, it is only moving towards a longer counter-insurgency phrase in Iraq. Furthermore if the following report is right, you have about a year or so to prevent the next war of aggression--this time against Iran.
