Sometimes the reactions of our government and the nation at large remind me of the delay in radio broadcasting. I think that the flawed intelligence was certainly obvious to many BEFORE the preemptive attack on Iraq . . . and we said so!
Lenin Cali Najera was shot in the jugular vein on july 6th. the official version is that he was after refusing to hand over his bicycle, but members of his political organization and his mother believe is was the result of his work for social change.

'Florida undertook a similar purge of voter rolls in 2000, but that list was shown to include the names of many who were not felons. The new effort at such a purge, begun by Governor Bush's administration in May, was supposed to be free of those problems. But after a state judge last week ordered the release of the current list, it became clear that thousands of felons who had been granted clemency were still on it.'

U.S. President George Bush had previously announced that the United States is in favor of exiling Iraq's former dictator to a distant island for the rest of his life.
This proposal and the efforts made by certain mercenary Arab jurists to prevent the formation of an Iraqi court to try the former dictator indicate that the United States, the West, and certain regional Arab countries which had previously supported Saddam in the wars against Iran and Kuwait are making extensive efforts to save Saddam's life.
This expose lays to rest the conspiracy theory advanced by Bush, Sharon & their cronies that Arab hijackers caused the collapse of WTC 1, 2, 6, 7. The empirical scientific research explained in this document brings out the truth that these buildings collapsed due to internal explosives. For the pictures, please see the attached document.
In solidarity with our friends in NYC- do not transact business.
Today I am writing about a very sensitive subject. Indeed, at this point in time it is a very dangerous subject to write about. The subject is political violence: when is it justified and when is it not justified. There are many positions on this topic and like most topics there are extreme positions. One extreme position is that political violence is never justified. This is the belief held by pacifists and followers of Gandhi. At the other extreme we find believers in political violence ranging from Stalinists, some Anarchists, Fascists, to Imperialists, among others. These political ideologies generally support the use of violence to achieve their ends.

Why Does Fahrenheit 9/11 Pursue Conspiracy Theory Rather Than History?

And what else did Ken Lay buy with the money stolen from California
electricity customers? Answer: the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Just before George Bush moved to Washington, Kenny-Boy handed his hand-picked president-to-be the name of the man Ken wanted as Chairman of the commission charged with investigating Enron's thievery. In a heartbeat, George Bush appointed Ken's boy, Pat Wood. Think about that: the criminal gets to pick the police chief. Well, George, give it back. Dump Wood and end the "de-criminalization" of electricity price-gouging that you and Cheney and Wood laughably call "de-regulation." Give us back the government Lay bought with crime cash.

My continuous observation and research of the religious right led me to this article found in a recent issue of Sojourners, a Christian ministry whose mission is to proclaim and practice the biblical call to integrate spiritual renewal and social justice. The article gives a brief history of the rise of the religious right in this country. With the impending reversal of social justice, equality and rights in America, it is important to understand the role that this controversial group plays. ~Amadeus

Iraqi Prime Minister Iyad Allawi's new emergency powers are being greeted with harrumphs from so-called human rights advocates in the West.

As a 20+ year veteran of OCF stages, and draftee in 20 midnight shows, I come to say that OCF is VERY sexist and racist, which is why, after 21 years of camping passes at OCF, I have given mine up. I have to boycott OCF based on my antiracist and profeminist beliefs.
