Three from OR wanted by FBI for questioning in CA bombings
Big surprise... Saudis continue to be rewarded for their commitment to freedom and democracy. And we already have their oil, too, but that's just a coincidence.
Merrick Bonneau, victim of police brutality, will lead a march from the South Park blocks, on September 4 around noon to City Hall where he will hold a news conference. Bonneau will speak to his experience of trying to seek justice (so far, in vain) for a brutal, wrongful arrest that caused him serious injuries. Please support Bonneau by attending the march and rally.
In the unprecedented expansion of world markets that began more than two decades ago, women play crucial roles. Some have been called beneficiaries of this globalization; but many more are its losers. NOW sheds light on how globalization has affected women's lives worldwide.

Hold on Little Michael Powell, you might have to give back some of those pricey vacations bestowed upon you by corporate media. Watch out ...they're gonna regulate on you!!!
With polls showing that up to 16% of the electorate is philosophically libertarian, this could be the real swing vote in 2004. Will libertarians decide that the Democratic candidate is the lesser of two evils for once? Or will they simply stay home in disgust on Election Day?
"It would have been worthwhile to sacrifice another million Jews for the glory of the Warsaw Ghetto revolt" -- Yitzhak Greenbaum
The earth is warmer now than it has been at any time in the past 2,000 years, the most comprehensive study of climatic history has revealed.
Confirming the worst fears of environmental scientists, the newly published findings are a blow to sceptics who maintain that global warming is part of the natural climatic cycle rather than a consequence of human industrial activity.

![]() The Republican looting of the US Treasury is now exceeding over half a TRILLION dollars for this year alone. Most of the new Iraq money will likely make its way back into the pockets of Bush supporters, and Republican leaning corporations in the US. Sensing that Bush and his administration are a cabal of warmongering criminals who can be trusted only to line their own pockets, France and Germany say they would only contribute to a fund NOT in US control (see below).
The call for the first Vancouver critical mass is being made. This Friday at 6 PM bicycle enthusiasts will be gathering at Esther Short Park near downtown Vancouver, Washington.
What follows is a letter I sent out to my family and friends right after the U.S. began it's attacks on Iraq. After I sent out the first letter I got these responses from my aunt who is a working class republican. I think the dialogue shows what your average conservative thinks pretty well. For all of us who ask, "How can they believe this sh**?". Here is how they justify it.

This reads like a transparent editorial from a biased corporate newspaper - what a joke. Common Dreams has become one of the Dean-pimps, pushing anything about Dean in our faces regardless of the superficiality of the actual piece. Will this be in the other Dean-pimp publications too now? In Alternet, the Progressive, the Nation? Try writing an article like this about Kucinich and see if any of these will publish it. Good luck.

Sudden Blackout of Portland.Indymedia Item on US Casualties——23 Comments: Bushies at Work With a Worm???
On October 10-12, 2003, hundreds of activists and organizers from around
the continent will gather at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, NJ for the THIRD NORTH AMERICAN CONFERENCE OF THE PALESTINE SOLIDARITY MOVEMENT!
Executive order 13315, which Bush signed on 8/28/03, was published in the Federal Register today 9/3/03. It expands upon executive order 13303, and appears to be an asset grab under the guise of funding the Iraqi reconstruction, placing Iraq's state assets under control of the U.S. Treasury: in effect, the official looting of Iraq. Very convenient for a government which seeks to hand over control of Iraq to UN peacekeepers. This executive order has had zero corporate media coverage as of today.

Anybody hear about a Max accident on the blue line this morning.
I was delayed for 45 minutes, and the conductor said there was an accident w no details.

The further the U.S. and the world move from the fall of Baghdad on April 9th, the more it seems that the administration is correct:
Iraq is not a quagmire. It is really a black hole.

THE WAR IS LOST. By most measures of what the Bush administration forecast for its adventure in Iraq, it is already a failure. The war was going to make the Middle East a more peaceful place. It was going to undercut terrorism. It was going to show the evil dictators of the world that American power is not to be resisted. It was going to improve the lives of ordinary Iraqis. It was going to stabilize oil markets. The American army was going to be greeted with flowers. None of that happened.
Psychologist Oliver James analyses the behaviour of the American president.
A "watch list" drawn up by Mexican security forces of 80 anti-globalisation activists who are believed to be headed for Cancun for the World Trade Organisation gathering next month has provoked an angry response - from those whose names are missing.
Tuesday--A WILD, human-like creature ambushed thousands of unwitting citizens. The creature had an indepth message for humanity, and at the same time seemed to keep the sun out!
"The preemptive war against Iraq broke thenorms of the community of states. International law was degraded in its importance.. The preemptive war against Iraq was primarily an attempt of the US to triumph over the sovereignty of the international community. This disempowerment of international law is a unique dangerous mega-political experiment with unforeseeable consequences." Translated from the German

"The gigantic blackout (that will certainly not be the last) was a direct consequence that the US is so exemplary in the special neoliberal disciplines privatization and lower costs.. Neoliberalism isn't a specific US affair but a worldwide consensus of crisis capitalism overarching the parties.. The guideline of profitmaximization for the investor at any cost leads to an abstract cost cutting pressure that is counter-productive."
The idea of reviving Jerusalem's role as an educational center was expressed at an All-Islamic conference held in Jerusalem in 1931. At that conference, a call was made to establish a university carrying the name of "AL-AQSA," the Islamic shrine in Al-Quds.
The University was finally realized after much struggle in 1995 ...

So long as manufacturing executives seek labor arbitrage opportunities, employing U.S. blue-collar workers will be expensive. (American workers, after all, expect such niceties as pensions and health care.)

Tikkun takes no pleasure in presenting these two famous Zionists critiquing Israel. Many of us love Israel, and have felt saddened by Israeli policies and by their consequences for the lives of Israelis and Palestinians. For years, Avraham Burg wouldn't talk to Tikkun, because we were saying the very things that he is saying now (he was chair of the Jewish Agency, and then chair of the Knesset from 1999-2003). Rabbi Arthur Hertzberg was chair of the American Jewish Congress and author of The Zionist Idea. Both authors speak from the deepest love of the Jewish tradition. Please send these articles to everyone who has ever told you that criticizing Israeli policy is somehow anti-Semitic or self-hating.

According to their website, you can go to any Key Bank to make a donation to Officer McCollister through the Portland Police Association Officer's Assistance Fund. Maybe we should let Key Bank know what we think about that.

"We have new bases all over Afghanistan. We have just reached to Faryab province. There are 10,000 American soldiers. They can't be everywhere. We are not afraid.... we know we can move freely," Faruqi said. The Taliban have appointed military councils in each Afghan province, re-established military bases in the country, developed a command structure and injected discipline into the ranks, he said.

In appointing Derrick Foxworth Portland's sudden new chief of police, Vera Katz threw an insulting sop to the African-American community, and Reverend Roy Tate, President of the Albina Ministerial Alliance naively wasted no time in rolling in it.
Rapists in Portland have been set free time and time again. This is not going to happen again. Hank has escaped to Eugene, Camas to Spain, these young men had better realize their crimes are not going to leave them. They will continue to be haunted by the assaults they committed. From Camas' mom defending his behavior to Hank's email demanding everyone "lick his balls" I have tolerated enough bullshit.
I have not been able to post
on indymedia since 8/28 when I inquired about a web site certificate notification that was popping up on my computer.
The excuse of 'National Security Reasons' can be used to hide important evidence from people, which keeps their world view narrow and conventinoal, and prevents 'disruptive changes in society'. This is one change that society could use, or so I believe...A little activism of my own in just one more attempt to get that video released...
