Things haven't gotten any easier in Iraq since April. And Cargill, Tyson, and Archer Daniels Midland are looking to rake in the big bucks while decimating the Iraqi agricultural system. The occupation forces killed all the chickensin Baghdad, and are now sending frozen chicken legs from Tyson!
60km west of Baghdad on Sunday morning, setting off huge explosions in several vehicles. The US occupation command reported no American casualties in the attack that struck an ammunition truck and two other vehicles. The Associated Press reported that "dozens of Iraqi youths cheered and danced in celebration as contents of the flaming vehicles continued to explode. The crowds scattered when two F-16 jets passed overhead."

Bill Clinton Does More Good in One Day than Bush Can Accomplish in 3 years

Yesterday (Oct. 22nd) three defendants in the Borg timber sale protests that occurred August 30th 2002, were found "not guilty" on all charges. With the decision made by federal district judge Garr King proclaiming that the u.s.f.s. had violated regulations in accordance with the National Forest Policy Act, the acquittal of these three seems even more appropriate.

Something about this story isn't right. Here is another black person killed during a "routine traffic stop". The corporate media story says the officer couldn't have fired the deadly shot to the mans head. Did they see the autopsy report? The investigators say a gun may have discharged when the car crashed, or Homsombath took his own life. And the bullet just went into his head and killed him? I think the community should definite ask some questions about this incident.
"The wars since the last century mark the age of an incipient accumulation crisis with gigantic capital destruction (in the two world wars)..

Documents are publicly available that detail vulnerabilities in electronic voting machines manufactured by the Diebold Corporation. Diebold has been sending cease and desist letters to internet service providers (ISPs) that host the documents or links to them. Numerous Indymedia servers have been targeted by Diebold in its campaign to suppress this critical information.
Indymedia will defend its right to post internal memos and documents detailing vulnerabilities in electronic voting machines manufactured by the Diebold Corporation. The documents were made publicly available, and subsequently reported by writer Bev Harris on her websites blackboxvoting.com and blackboxvoting.org. The vast information contained in these documents is still being investigated by top computer scientists and researchers, but a set of widely circulated internal memos detail Diebold's flippant disregard of test runs, accuracy audits, and security for its voting machines. System tests (much like a dress rehearsal) are often required by local election laws--Diebold memos mention how they simply changed the name "memory test" to "***System Test Passed***" as if the machine performed a self audit. The memos also say how Diebold installed new versions of the voting software that were left untested. Their election results are not secure, as evidenced by this comment in one email regarding the "contents" (i.e. the votes) of the e-voting machines: "Now, where the perception comes in is that its right now very *easy* to change the contents. Double click the .mdb file." Diebold's Republican executives have touted e-voting as a solution to the punchcard voting systems that scandalized Florida in 2000. In fact, this evidence of security and reliability flaws raises serious questions about this "solution" to election woes in the US.

Vevezuelan Legislators held a news conference to release a video tape they claim shows employees of a private security company, a US embassy staffer and a retired US Army colonel and dissident Venezelan security officers discussing plans to destabilize the country this December.
Okay, I have been hearing about this event on KBOO for a couple weeks now, mainly on Susan Bernstein's breast cancer survivors show series, but never have I found this info anywhere on the websites for KBOO or Hollywood Theatre... Still, I think folks should know about this event and about the fact that it will be broadcast live that evening on KBOO at the same time for those who can't make it to the event.

The founder of this anti-children's right group shows his true colors as he rants against "queers".
I see one of their video "exposes" is listed as a "video from the resistance". These people are not the resistance, they are neocons of the worst sort who must call people names in the absence of facts and data to support their outrageous claims (think Ann Coulter or Michael Savage).
This article summarizes some thoughts, musings and pensee's concerning a voyage that I recently finished around the Earth. This voyage took 13 months of active traveling and opening my senses to the world reality around me; this period of living was truly worth the experience - so marvellous and quite horrifying at that same time. Arriving back, I would like to share some travel sentiments and ideas.

I think now that Moore has come out against Mumia and for Clark, people need to be educated on what the problems are with his positions on Clark, at the least.

On one hand he (Bush) is carrying out the demands of the Zionist lobby that helped him to enter the White House. These demands are to destroy the military strength of Iraq because it is too close to the Jews in occupied Palestine, regardless of the harm that will happen to your people and your economy.

Since the end of the Vietnam War, presidents have worried that their military actions would lose support once the public glimpsed the remains of U.S. soldiers arriving at air bases in flag-draped caskets.
To this problem, the Bush administration has found a simple solution: It has ended the public dissemination of such images by banning news coverage and photography of dead soldiers' homecomings on all military bases.
"The fight for freedom in this country has been long, painful, and ongoing. It is time to take back our country. Take it back from political agendas, corporate greed and overall manipulation. It is time to take action here in our land, in our own schools, neighborhoods, farms, and businesses. We have been lied to and terrorized by our own government, and it is time to take action. Now is the time to come together."
