[Tucson, April 13 2004] The Secretary General of Hezbollah, Sheikh Hassan Sayyed Nasrallah, received MP Walid Jumblatt of Lebanon's Progressive Socialist Party at the Hezbollah HQ in Beirut April 8.
Why should Bush take all the heat alone? He collaborates with the Zionists. All the guilty parties should be brought to trial.
With all the police shootings taking place in my community I'll be damned if I'm going to sit by and do nothing.

"if students don't start to organize right now, it will be too late"

Aljazeera TV has rejected the US military's comments against its coverage of the latest events in Iraq, and considered the accusations as a "threat" to the media.
Earth Day is coming this weekend, and Rainforest Relief is seeking volunteers to staff a table at the "Celebration of Localization" in southeast Portland.

Tre Arrow sends message about Thursday's Hearing
Moving to Portland soon and wondering where the real portland is? Where do I find the local artists, restaurants, and other locally owned, progressiveely-minded businesses?
it can't be for vast stockpiles of 'weapons of mass destruction' -
120,000 troops are certainly not needed to find those (and anyway haven't been able to for one entire year spent there), especially since UN inspectors couldn't find them in almost a decade of previous searching - Hans Blix now states they never existed. and also because many members of and advisers to the current administration now openly admit that WMDs "were not the reason", flatly contradicting thousands of reams of their very own public statements and edicts from the very same people 2002 through March 2003, to the exact contrary.
A conglomeration of wacky political protest against the mighty mighty Bush Regime. Comedy, music, poetry, film, cartoons. Whole lotta fun.
These are not just rumors: this is the bona fide truth! The Daily Grind compromises the financial health of local, sustainable businesses by not paying their bills for months and months. Customers should let the management know they don't appreciate that, or better yet ... tell them you will shop elsewhere until they pay their bills!!!
We have a summer full events to raise your spirits and consciousness, while raising funds for Tre Arrows defense, so mark your calendars and plan on joining us for all the festivities!

We are having a benefit for the upcoming Village Building Convergence. Please attend and get involved!
It is used to implant a GPS-microchip in the body of a human being, using a high powered sniper rifle as the long distance injector. The microchip will enter the body and stay there, causing no internal damage, and only a very small amount of physical pain to the target. It will feel like a mosquito-bite lasting a fraction of a second.

I prove that same sex marriage is moral and to deny it is to act immorally. In doing so, I will also demonstrate that our language also aids in clouding our morality.
4/12/04 Legacy Forests Campaign Update
I'm having withdrawal from my daily dose of grind.
Tuesday marks the 10 year anniversary of the Northwest Forest Plan, a Clinton-era rule enacted to address the decline of the Northern Spotted Owl and (supposedly) to create a truce in the "Timber Wars" of the 1980's and early 1990's. Although lambasted by radicals and criticized by some mainstream environmentalists, loss of support from big green groups on fighting the plan eventually led to its enactment. While creating some protections, the Plan mandated that logging continue on 1,000,000's of acres of publicly owned National Forests. The Plan allowed for major loopholes, such as the infamous Salvage Logging Rider. Old-growth logging - with taxpayer funded corporate welfare subsidizing the destruction - continued, as did grassroots resistance. The rule of profit over life remained unchanged. Enter Bush II. Of W's innumerable, well-documented environmental rollbacks, his changes to forest policy are amongst the most severe. Bush has made Cascadia a special focus, visiting us (1, 2) under the strangest circumstances when he announces new forest-death laws. What little protection the Northwest Forest Plan offered is now in shambles, with the elimination of rare species and aquatic protections under the plan. Stay tuned for Part II: "10 Years of Cascadian Eco-Resistance" in the coming days...

But events are departing badly from the imperial story line, with both Shia and Sunni opposition becoming widespread and tentative signs of a potentially united resistance.

"Events should have cured the Bush team of its illusions. After all, before the invasion Tim Russert asked Dick Cheney about the possibility that we would be seen as conquerors, not liberators, and would be faced with "a long, costly and bloody battle." Mr. Cheney replied, "Well, I don't think it's likely to unfold that way, Tim, because I really do believe that we will be greeted as liberators." Uh-huh."

Urgent ELP Bulletin (13th of April 2004)
While registration "may" be mandatory for the selective service, it is also mandatory that if an individual is called up through the "draft, that he "report" to the draft board. WHAT IS NOT MANDATORY, is the requirement to "STEP FORWARD" when the oath is administered!
This is a repost from the bush re-election website. I am sure they would NOT want it posted on indymedia. Pull a bunch of pranks on them, order pizzas in their name, walk in and eat all their food, make farting noises while they speak. It's FREE.

 Going out to see east 5 mile after not being there for a year was like seeing an old friend who has undergone some incredible surgery. Last time I was there was in the winter of 2003. I and three other had made a commitment to ground truth as many of the 18 units on East Five mile and just as many on West Five mile. The eastern part of this sale is on land that is quite different from the West side of Mt. Hood. It has a climate that is much more dry and seemingly delicate. There is a larger quantity of Ponderosa Pines, Old White Oak and Larch. It is obvious that these units have been logged before due to the large lichen covered stumps that one Bark ground truther estimated at 80 - 100 years old; that was just the stump. On this particular trip many emotions came up while walking through Unit 8, Anger, sadness and guilt among many others. [ Photos + Text ] [ Logging on Mt. Hood at Hipo Timber Sales ]

WASHINGTON, April 12 — Draft reports by the independent commission investigating the Sept. 11 attacks portray Attorney General John Ashcroft as largely uninterested in counterterrorism issues before Sept. 11 despite intelligence warnings that summer that Al Qaeda was planning a large, perhaps catastrophic, terrorist attack, panel officials and others with access to the reports have said.
Exxon/Mobil, the RNC & Widespread Nonviolent Militancy
as the FBI prepares to be lightly grilled by the 9-11 Whitewash Commission, let's take a moment to remember that the current FBI Chief is an Old-Time Bush Family Helper, and reflect on the real reasons why he was appointed to run the Bureau a month before September 11, 2001 . . .
(also remember that John O'Neill, the FBI's top bin Laden investigator, was killed in the collapse of the WTC towers.)

We need to get more vocal about one of the world's most underreported human rights disasters - the brutal treatment of gays and lesbians in the Middle East, North Africa, and Muslim countries in general. This treatment includes arrest, torture, and murder. This is completely unacceptable. Raise your voices in protest and flood the embassies of these nations with our anger. Protest those mosques that preach hate against homosexuals. And lobby THIS government in the US to protect more political refugees from these rights-abusing nations. Let it be known that intolerance in Islam won't be tolerated - we can lay down a fatwa, too.

Louis Freeh and the Murder Of Judge Robert Vance
Their city is under siege, systematically being flattened section by section, block by block and house by house. Fallujah is reliving wars fought by Western nations when madness became king and reason turned a blind eye on humanity. The most modern weaponry known to man has been unleashed on the Sunni city of 300,000. The most powerful army the world has ever known has descended like a firestorm to release its winds of destruction, maiming, death and suffering. Fallujah is being made an example, you see.
this came to me thru an email list. Its not quite what is being presented in the news, about Iraq.
The weekend found more foreign hostages seized and conflicting accounts of those known captured.
Fifty days after the first reports that the U.S. forces were unloading weapons of mass destruction (WMD) in southern Iraq, new reports about the movement of these weapons have been disclosed. Sources in Iraq speculate that occupation forces are using the recent unrest in Iraq to divert attention from their surreptitious shipments of WMD into the country.
