The link below is a link to a petition on Arianna Huffington's website to convince John Kerry to offer a bolder, more progressive vision for America.

Israel has always served the interests of its imperial backer, and thus is likely to willingly deploy itself to attend to the laundry list of "unfinished business" in the Middle East, "checking-off" other "pressing needs" of the U.S. and Israel. Those needs, after all, are mutual. One therefore cannot rule out even bloodier attacks against Syria, against Palestinian leaders and factions in Lebanon and Syria, against Hezbollah in Lebanon, and even against Iran's nuclear reactor. Who knows what priorities will determine Israel's actions and when. Though we can only morbidly speculate, we must certainly be sobered by Israel's historical record. And given this understanding, we must also seriously contemplate whether the current situation is similar to those that preceded 1956, 1967, and 1982-when Israel initiated attacks against Arab countries, claiming self-defense.
At least it's not Bush, Chaney, Ashcroft and the Neo Convicts.
Coming from Portland Oregon, it seems like the end of the world.
Among Oregonians who voted in two of the past four elections, President Bush leads John Kerry in a race for the White House, according to a Northwest NewsChannel 8 poll.
That doesn't bode well for Kerry because likely voters who have consistently cast ballots in the past are likely to turn out again for November's general election, said Mike Riley, head of Portland-based Riley Research Associates that conducted the scientific poll for Northwest NewsChannel 8.
the whole beheading was a poorly orchestrated sham - there is nothing in the way of what I think is called a 'legacy', the basic proofs that make a covert-op/spy stand up to any scrutiny whatsoever
I use the term Bush-wing instead of rightwing out of courtesy to those actually of the ring wing out there. peace.
I read it at the memory hole (www.thememoryhole.org) but IMC needs to see it too.
these pictures were meant to go with the announcement of the peaceful protest on 28th and burnside on fridays, could you post them with that article/announcement please, sorry for any hassle.
Join other Portlanders in saying no to torture, yes to impeachment, no to crimes against humanity, rape, pillage and plundering, yes to impeachment, no to occupation, yes to peace, NO TO HATRED, YES TO LOVE.
GPFX last posted they would only change the deck if people called for a revote or if some members of the deck retired. Well I am calling for a revote due to a recent WWeek.com article!
there is a story recounted by an "unidentified foreign reporter" - and alternately by "Berg's friends" - that Berg was arrested in Mosul by Iraqi police.
a slightly modified version of the story goes that Berg was held only *briefly* by Iraqi police, and then turned over almost immediately to the U.S. military where he spent his detention. [U.S. occupation authorities will not comment on this version . . . ] Dan Senor, spokesman for the occupation authority, claims that Berg was held exclusively by Iraqi police - not at all by the U.S. military or coalition - and also flatly contradicts and denies the claims of Berg's family that U.S. consular officials told them Nick Berg was in U.S. military custody (not being held by Iraqi police). In the version recounted by "unidentified foreign reporter", Nick Berg 'jokingly' tells him: "You wanna hear something funny? I got arrested in Mosul when the police asked me for I.D. I showed them my U.S. passport with the Jewish name and the Israeli stamp and I guess they figured I was a spy." ha, ha, ha . . .
Portland, OR-- Seven neighborhood activists from different quadrants of Portland are running as a coalition. This historic move may be the first in a series of strategies to bring power from corporate interests back to the citizens of this City.
Sorry for the length of this but I felt this little info-tisement needed a point by point response, the original re-posted text appears are preceeded by > and end in <
Federal, state, and private security forces converged to police not actions but ideas at the Student Animal Rights Organization (SARO) conference on animal liberation, which included the first ever academic symposium on the Animal Liberation Front (ALF). The conference featured analyses from feminist, anti-racist, radical environmentalist, and animal liberationist activists and scholars.
Portland should be a leader in it's support of local businesses and that leadership should START in Pioneer Courthouse Square! Say NO to Starbucks expansion plans and say YES to require local preference!
A snotty WW column listed Starbucks on 7 corners a "winner" for receiving "free publicity" after "anti-corporate monkey-wrenchers tossed makeshift molotov cocktails."
If you are one of the many people who have decided not to support Starbucks then you'll want to make sure not to patronize Seattle's best Coffee.

Rumsfeld's triumphant visit to the Badlands
This week's WW cover calls Goldschmidt having sex with (statutory rape) a 14 year old babysitter, "incomprehensible." To quote Inigo Montoya, "I don't think that word means what you think it means." That in the back of the same issue is an advertisement which promises to provide "Real Teens! Real Sex!" means it should not be 'incomprehensible' to WW editors that many selfish adult men coerce sex from adolescent girls who suffer the rest of their lives from such abuses of power and trust.

Reading about a liberator losing his head reminds me when 4 earlier liberators lost their heads.

The defense of Cuba against US-Policy toward CUBA is quickly becoming a crucial issue !!! Bush's recently approved tough measures against Cuba mark a new phase of agressive efforts to overthrow the Cuba´s legitimate Government.
Steps that will lead to an invasion -- as Bush and his accomplices have done with Afghanistan, Iraq and Haiti !!! The "Commission for Assistance to a Free Cuba" has issued a 50 page report -- the Bush administration has chosen to administer the policies outlined in this report. A report that details abuses by Cuba -- this report is Orwellian in that it could actually be the condemation of the current Bush administration -- not Cuba !!! Quoting directly from this report, "The United States rejects the continuation of a communist dictatorship in Cuba ..." ... see the following ACTION ALERT !!!

"Dear Kerry supporters in Oregon, I have a message for you from progressives and Greens both within and outside the Democratic party. The best way you canhelp elect John Kerry President in November is: Vote for Dennis Kucinich in the May 18th Oregon primary.."
Ani Haines compiled this flashback of pro-torture
articles. They appeared in the wake of the airliner crashes
I don't understand why people are suddenly so upset and confused about the routine torture of prisoners in Iraq. Doesn't anyone remember that we've been acting this way for years? Here's a piece I posted over on ZNet interactive in the early say of the First Idiot's reelection campaign war on humanity.
a book i recently discovered. Its by Prof David Griffin, and is a carefully reasoned synthesis of some of the best investigations into 9-11 by people like Thierry Meyssan, Gerard Holmgren and Paul Thompson.
William Odom, a retired general and former member of the National Security Council reflects a wide swath of opinion in the upper ranks of the military. "It was never in our interest to go into Iraq," he told me... "Wisdom in military affairs dictates withdrawal in this situation. We can't afford to fail, that's mindless. The issue is how we stop failing more. I am arguing a strategic decision."
this is the 'closed doors' version the Bush administration doesn't want you to see... ;)
I hate to beat a dead horse, but...
Mosquito Kingdom by Ernesto Cardenal. This is the quinessential poem. This poem is a must read! Earmark this page if you can't finish the poem. This is the true history of Nicaragua! Ernesto Cardenal is considered one of the premier poets of Nicaragua. You can't find his poetry in English on line. We must protect Hugo Chavez. We must remember what we have done...

For eight days in May, the Port of Oakland was virtually shut down by truckers striking for better conditions. The same port had been closed down by antiwar protesters just three weeks before, so a small contingent of us from Direct Action to Stop the War (DASW) joined them as a community support group and reported their struggle on Indymedia.
...we are faced with the oddest antiwar movement. It has received much favorable coverage in the media. And as for individual opponents of the war getting into the media, consider the case of [anti-war activist] Scott Ritter. Now, in Part 2: The Source of the Claim that Iraq had Nuclear Weapons was...

WASHINGTON - The new Iraqi government won't have the authority to evict American forces from Iraq, a top State Department official said Thursday — quickly reversing a statement made minutes earlier before a House panel.
It was November 1999 in Seattle and the U.S. global justice movement had taken to the streets. Suddenly, there was a crash not 20 feet from where I stood, and the Starbucks window collapsed in a hail of glass. "Zowie," I said to my husband Alec, "I sure hate the WTO and capitalism, but that's our coffee store."
