This in from today's Lew Rockwell website about how the neocons have made as big a
fool of the American public as they have of President Bush (not all that difficult there), and poses the question...will they be held accountable?
This was sent to the listserve that I'm on, so the language isn't meant to speak to the readers of this site, but rather those who have supported marine mammal protection by responding to email fax alerts and donating to the legal NRDC fund. So if it seems like it is written like a letter to funders, it is, but the content I thought would be relevant for readers to know about.
417 dead American soldiers in Iraq surpasses the number killed in Vietnam up through the end of 1964...

"The `delusion' prevails in neoliberalism that `the national economies flourish when the people don't do well'.. The neoliberal world econmic order in which 95 percent of capital transactions consist of speculations.. is unstable. This is a system that jumps the track again and again without people knowing whether it has completely derailed." Oscar Lafontaine is a champion of redefining work and reducing worktime
"The Battle of Algiers should serve as a lesson. France won the battle but lost the war,. The disaster in Iraq has averted more war adventures in Iran and Syria..The UN is regarded as part of the problem..The Middle East is a scene of two foreign occupations: in the Palestinian areas occupied by Israelis and in Iraq." Tariq Ali's new book "Bush in Babylon.The Recolonization of Iraq" will be published by Diederich

Since the 1970s, Oregon has been shifting away from higher-paying manufacturing jobs toward lower-pay retail and service jobs, said Brian Rooney, a labor economist with the state Employment Department.
EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the fifth report in an ongoing series on hunger in Oregon. The state has one of the highest hunger rates in the nation, according to federal surveys.
Everyday exposure to toxins like carbon monoxide from vehicle exhaust and fluoride in drinking water can alter brain chemistry and thinking patterns. Combined with the barage of corporate media propaganda (PSYOPS?), this could explain the apathy of Americans in the face of a fascist government..
Resistance begins in the mind...
It's all the same war
When people are engaging in behavior that results in military oppression for the purpose of resource extraction (ex. US occupation of Iraq for oil), we need to educate people, so ignorance cannot be claimed..

People attending a private fundraising event in Brooklyn were
shocked early this morning by an unprovoked and violent assault at the hands of the NYPD. Up to 100 people attending a fundraiser for activists of color were indiscriminately sprayed with chemical agents, beaten with nightsticks, and harassed by a throng of up to 100 police officers. Witnesses say there was no cause for the assaults and the subsequent arrests following the melee.
The world's media has reported that many of the so-called hijackers "fingered" by the FBI are still alive. For example the BBC (British Broadcasting Cooperation) carried this report.....

Personal comment and more political theory
On the current situation in Iraq, Seymour M. Hersh said "it's a mafia economy on the street level. That's way below the level of our operations." Hersh spoke of riding gangs and oil being smuggled in from Turkey. "It's worse every day, we are basically nowhere." He also pointed to the potential danger of leaving US troops in Iraq. "In the army, the only thing that matters is loyalty to your fellow soldiers."
Home Secretary David Blunkett has refused to grant diplomatic immunity to armed American special agents and snipers travelling to Britain as part of President Bush's entourage this week.

The Law Enforcement Intelligent Unit (LEIU) hearings, based on the June 2, 2003 LEIU protests in Seattle, are back on. You will remember last time we visited this topic, at the August 28 hearing, LEIU defendants' property was not being returned by the Seattle Police, including video cameras, videotapes, personal and student identification, credit cards, and even ice cream cards (with only one cone left until the free one).
I commented to someone recently that the United States was "poised on
the edge of something". This person then called me a "dreamer" after I expressed my belief that "something" might be "completely the opposite" of the "fascism" he had offered as a possibility. This person may well have been right: later that same day, I bet a three-figure sum that President Bush will be defeated in the 2004 elections. It dawned on me later on that these opinions are in need of some explanation. I see no reason you should take me seriously. Beyond the fact that I've spent some time giving these matters a considerable degree of attention, there remain the question of how useful historically grounded speculation about the future really is, and the probability that I'm just rationalizing my natural optimism. You've been warned.

Salem's Deputy Police Chief is injured during a police training demonstration of the use of taser darts.
"In the global age, radical criticism has become an esoteric function.. Individuals have long been degraded into mere market subjects.. Whoever only knows customers and not individuals ignors institutions and collective actors." In this essay translated from the German in "Merkur", the criticisms of George Soros, Joseph Stiglitz and John Gray are explored.
"A Hippocratic oath-`I say NO to everything that helps promote wars and lets people die" may not only be an intellectual game. How would a binding scientific ethic appear that soberly and rationally confronts the possible apocalypse? On one side, gthere is no denying or forgetting the accumulated knowledge. On the other side, everything that can be done is separated from everything that may be done."

The effectiveness of legislation should be measured in terms of the effectiveness of each law in accomplishing the stated purpose. of that law. Victimless Crime Laws (VCL's) have never worked in the past, do not work now and will not work in the future. i.e., they have no force and effect in preventing crime or saving lives. i.e., VCL's are nothing more than a "wishfull thinking" pallative with unintended disasterous consequences and should be repealed.
Germany begins phaseout of nuclear power.
In this latest excerpt from Chaim Kupferberg's landmark article, Kupferberg looks at the murky background surrounding the 9/11 recruiters, and sets out the following bold hypothesis: if one were to posit the presence of a covert intelligence service behind the actions of the 9/11 hijackers, the most logical place to look would be in the vicinity of al-Qaida's key recruiting agents. Does Kupferberg make his case? You be the judge.
This weekend, with the US death toll in Iraq now passing 400 - with more than 170 US military personnel killed since combat officially ended on May 1 - and with insurgents in Iraq now mounting 30 attacks daily, Washington appears to have finally conceded that the US has no endgame.
Do you want to do something to minimize cheating during the 2004 elections? If so, then part of the answer may be helping to get The Voter Confidence and Increased Accessibility Act of 2003 passed. This posting contains a primer on the issues and some ideas as to how to get it passed.
This latest by Joe Vialls is sobering. For better context, go to his website and read the

On November 10, 2003, at SEIU Local 49 in Portland, Sara Quintanilla (an electrical worker and Secretary General of her union local) spoke about her union's struggle to halt privatization and defeat the Bush Corporate Globalization agenda from taking over El Salvador and all of Latin America.
The drug war not only affects otherwise law abiding citizens in America, but transcends national borders as well, so the fact that this outspoken advocate resides in BC should be of little importance. I believe that if we had more like him here in the United States, particularly in green friendly Oregon, we could help draw attention to how many people's civil liberties are being violated and begin to mobilize change.
Seventeen soldiers have been killed and five others wounded in the crash of two US military helicopters in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul.

Hi Friends,
On Saturday, Nov 15, five activists (including two from the Pagan cluster) were arrested in Miami for the crime of leafletting, that is, peaceful organizing for the upcoming anti-FTAA mobilization. Urgent support action is needed.
I hear a lot about 'fair trade' and also a lot about 'ending subsidies' and I find that I am adamantly opposed to both concepts, not on the basis of economic principles, but on humanitarian grounds.
