"Israel's Channel 10 TV said that none of the dead were militants, characterizing the refugee camp strike as a "mistake."Residents said one of the dead was a doctor who was treating victims when a second missile struck. The identity of the other victims was not immediately known."
"During three years of violence, Israeli airstrikes in Gaza have caused dozens?!!! of civilian casualties."
In a Miami federal court, the attorney general charged the environmental group Greenpeace under an obscure 1872 law originally intended to end the practice of "sailor-mongering," or the luring of sailors with liquor and prostitutes from their ships. Ashcroft plucked the law from obscurity to punish Greenpeace for boarding a vessel near port in Miami.

Despite all odds and ethnic cleansing of 70% of natives in 1947-1949, remained in what became Israel. They were kept under martial law until 1966 and are now (separate and unequal) citizens of Israel. "Adalah's main goals are to achieve equal individual and collective rights for the Arab minority in Israel in different fields including land rights; civil and political rights; cultural, social, and economic and rights; religious rights; women's rights; and prisoners' rights."
Is the ethnic cleansing about to start?
(United States of Christian America) - The swift elimination of divisions between chuch and state will likely show a boost in markets for weapons and religious-nationalism paraphenalia, as well as provide the necessary - albeit fantastical - explanations for the increasingly bizarre actions of the Church of the White House.
re was the first person I had met who yearned for the clock to be turned back and former President Hussein to return - not a Baathist sympathiser, not a former member of the secret police - but a middle-aged Jewish woman.
The other two women said they also wished for the return of the former president and swore all their friends felt the same. "In Saddam's day, there was the rule of law, there was safety. Now I dare not let my daughter out of the house. She won't be able to complete her studies. This is what the Americans have brought", said Subhiyya.
Six members of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) have been detained in connection with last week's deadly bombing of a US convoy in Gaza.
There is a big need for people ready to take action in order to have a positive impact upon developing a symbiotic living condition with the Earth. In the western world many of our activities are shortsighted for immediate gain, and at the expense of something else. Campus California TG is an international institute creating positive development, here in the USA and actually all over the world through the volunteers and projects. The Develpment Instructor program specifically, will develop and focus on the planet, a living organism, which includes humans and cities, (of course) and activities which promote and create a healthy and high quality life for all.
"In Israel, Avraham Burg, former speaker of the Knesset, recently warned that if Israel wishes to preserve what little democracy it still has, it must either withdraw to its pre-1967 boundaries or grant full citizenship to the approximately 3.5 million Palestinians in the occupied territories, a step that would spell the virtual end of the Jewish state...."
The final results of the Multnomah County PUD Measures 26-51 and 26-52 are still weeks away but it is not to early to analyze why we allowed the initiative to fail and more importantly figure out how we can keep it from happening again. We need to learn how to "Take Back the Power Grid"
That question will be answered shortly with a ruling from the Supreme Court and this should be of interest to some of us. I cut and pasted from an AP article on findlaw.com.
The Defeat Bush Now! campaign will host its next election skills workshop on Tuesday, October 21.
''[Black] parents scream and yell about the racial achievement gap, and how the schools aren't fair, and society is racist and blah, blah-blah, blah-blahhh, because they don't want to get off the sofa, and put some effort into it themselves'' - Jerry Agar, Conservative talk radio host
Compare these two stories, supposedly about the same event - Sniper suspect John Allen Muhammad's trial statements. Does the ABC / AP story say anything about his declaring innocence? Why not, if that's what he said? Instead, they declare it 'ramblings.' Yahoo news at least prints what he says - "He continued: ``We looking for facts, we looking for evidence, and the evidence will show I had nothing to do with these crimes.''"

People have called him a murdere. More accurately he is a Manslaughterer. And Senator Gordon Smith is not doing anything to protect his constituents from this criminal act.

Here, I connect the dots between John Deutch (ex-CIA director), Prince Ahmed bin Salman bin Abdul Aziz of Saudi Arabia (who seems to recently have been heart-attacked), Mitre Corp. (of which John Deutch was employed once), 9-11, and the National Reconaissance Office's (NRO) satellite contracts. The biggest contractor for the NRO, some would say, is TRW which, coincidentally, John Deutch also worked for. It bears mentioning here that John Deutch also worked for SAIC, which is currently looking very bad for allegedly designing voting machines that are highly hackable. But wait. There's more.
I thought this was interesting. It is exerpted from today's (Mon, Oct. 20th) Washington Post. There is a real difference between Dean's canidacy and the others.
After bringing down with stones and wooden sticks the government of millionaire Gonzalo Sanchez de Lozada, the rebellion of the poor and excluded has demanded from the new President Mesa to not export the gas, to industrialize it in the country and recover it from transnational hands. Huge task for a man without a party nor social support, sustained only by the U.S embassy and a demoralized army.

Time is running out. PUD ballots have been in the hands of voters for four days now and the federally mandated advertising correcting misleading wording has not yet appeared, although it should have been published beginning on Sunday. Let's get to the bottom of this and make some noise. Write Steve Duin at the OREGONIAN!
"In immediate nearness to his oppressors, Mandela discovered a compassion and community wityh them in suffering.

Indians Accuse Armed Forces of Illegally Seizing Land--as New "Resource Mafia" Replaces Narcos
President Bush's national security adviser insisted Sunday that the U.S. fight against terrorism is not a war between Christianity and Islam, despite a top general's comments that seemed to say it is. (As the Pentagon struggles to plug leaking from Boykin's unabashed hyperevangelical streak, if Condi... ahem, Dr... Rice, given her record, says it isn't, the truth is probably 180* opposite).
Sally Lieber, D-San Jose, points to Wal-Mart employee hand-outs about social services like Medicaid, food stamps and temporary assistance as proof that the retailer uses state and federal tax dollars to supplement "poverty" level wages and benefits.

The old belief held that with a low unemployment rate workers would have the upper hand and demand higher wages. Yet the data showed that wages weren't rising that much (during the Clinton Administration). It was one of the central economic mysteries of the time.

This ballot is biased from the bogus "warning" on the front of the envelope to the misleading explanation found inside.
