There is a widespread public perception in the US that violent crime is rampant and only the bold and dangerous work of police officers is protecting us from it. This perception is largely unsupported by facts. Perception of crime and danger has increased while actual incidence of crime has decreased. Sensationalistic media are to blame. The resulting public perception feeds would-be totalitarians in business and government.
"The public must know the full truth about the U.S. government's involvement in this scandal."
The bitter battle over the stolen November 2 election in Ohio has turned into a rapidly escalating all-out multi-front war with the outcome of the real presidential vote count increasingly in doubt.
Government transparency is fundamental to democracy. As, Thomas Jefferson wrote, "Information is the currency of democracy." Our Democracy cannot endure without a committed citizenry and an open government that answers to the people. Our Democracy has survived because of the participation of its citizenry, which completely depends on the government's transparency and accountability.
A Short report - with pictures - of the annual, October 16th AntiMacDonalds Day in Israel.
Let's talk...
Here is a coment from an older article and a reply
An entire portion of the webserver at http://www.global-catastrophe.info is devoted to discovering the truth of a matter that may be of paramount importance to every American citizen over the next few years if what certain individuals are saying is, indeed, true as it pertains to the Peak Oil debate.
I just have to share the miraculous event of efficient portland policing I encountered this morning.
Personally, I think violations of the Voting Rights Act are the tightest legal case -- proving the fraud is very difficult (but it should be pursued). This mess needs professional investagative reporting.
Amnesty International today released a report finding that the rampant proliferation of TASER electro-shock weapons among United States law enforcement agencies is contributing to widespread human rights abuses. The report details 74 TASER-related deaths that have occurred in the United States and Canada since June 2001, providing additional support for Amnesty International's long-standing call for a suspension of the use of the electro-shock weapons until it can be determined if they are killing people. Amnesty International USA will also release information documenting more than80 TASER-related deaths since 1999. The fact that more than 60 percent of these deaths have occurred in the last year (November 2003 to November 2004) significantly increases the urgency of this call.
Not only do reporters get the numbers wrong, but nobody in the mainstream media, or Congress is even asking what a democracy is doing spending $40 billion a year in secret funds on "intelligence" and spying.
After this preface there is re-typed, VERBATIM, my original investigation report of 1972. Since there is currently supposed Anti-Iraq War Movements, it is instructive to study prior such movements. Why? To determine, by example, if the leadership and direction they are taking secretly serves the purposes of the Aristocracy.
The wave of plant closures and mass layoffs rumbles and no end is foreseen.. A process of inexorable de-industrialization occurs.. The West, the destructive logic of industrial work pressure is itself the error and ultimately its own downfall.
Now that Frans van Anraat is to be charged with assisting genocide by supplying Saddam Hussein with lethal chemicals, it is time to arrest the CEOs and employees of corporations that did the same.
One facet of propaganda is the utilization of unfounded assumptions in an attempt to justify wars or other projects of the rich and powerful. Also, elections can be used to legitimize wars or to accomplish the corporate takeover and privatization of certain countries.
It is unprecedented, disgusting and shameful how bankrupt so-called journalism has SUNK. More concern for their paychecks, phony careerism than professional ethics, democracy and duty to perform as a watchdog for and IN the Public Interest. This citizen will constantly ALERT the 'People of the Web' to crackpot, simplistic, invalid analysis of those who would aid in concealing and propping up a practice form and style of government that is openly flaunting the rule of law, denying Voting Rights and breaking laws ensuring free, fair elections-- the main way to petition a government for a redress of grievances. Do not these establishment defending appartchiks, dissent barrier specialists realize their product is credibility? Millions of AmeriCANs are highly suspicious of this election where Kerry did worse than Gore against a candidate who LOST support, and declared winning states he lost in 2000 at a time his approval rating was 48%? Suppress and Pad the vote , now suppress public awareness with the use of omission, ridicule, slander and diversion without the even any sound arguments or honest reporting of verified and numerous irregularites as they try to SinSpin their infecting mind virus to unwrite the history of OUR LandSlide. Here is some BS from the Cleveland Plain Dealer, Pass the Reynolds* Wrap - I'd rather wear the 'tin-foil hat' THAN the dictators cap- BLAST this guys box with some HomeWork so we can all GET BACK HOME!
This mornings discussion on the fates of Whales -
5 Women gang rape a criminal and torture him. Only 2 are actually charged. Prison terms given for rape, torture, attempted murder and kidnapping? 4 months. I repeat. 4 MONTHS. Where is Equality? "You can get anything you want at Alice's Restaurant" of judicial gendercide. After all, according to the DA. "No one was hurt"
The Portland police are hiring 70 new officers. Those can either be 70 more Scott McCollisters and Jason Serys, or 70 decent people. Folks, do you REALLY want to make a difference? How about becoming a cop? Flood their ranks with peaceful people that will not harass bike riders, shoot unarmed people and taser folks in the back. APPLY ONLINE!

Bolivarian Revolution
"Nor are women about to be admitted to the male-only inner sanctum, although in America they are allowed to join affiliated organisations. "We're not changing things willy-nilly," said Mr Fletcher, 70, a retired banker and a Mason for 48 years. "We're not going to stand on street corners and try to lassoo every passing male. But we do want to attract new members. And we believe there is a generation out there who want to get involved with a value-based organisation again."
Though what values, hmmm? Beware future 'porch bretheren' of the Blue levels: Those deeper in the temple are your worst amoral nightmare. How is joining a secret society, moral or publicly civic in the slightest bit? I'd love to be the fly on the wall for why U.S. Masons decided to break, oh, at least 700 years of secrecy or so to come out of the woodwork NOW. Beware: avoid Masonic spiritual "Ponzi schemes".

The struggle for workers' rights in the FTZ producing Levi's jeans is still continuing. No Sweat and the Haiti Support Group are calling for financial support for the Sokowa union.

Mayor-Elect Tom Potter spoke at the Bicycle Transportation Alliance annual meeting tonight. Also present were several other bike-friendly local political luminaries, including former Mayor Bud Clark and newly elected Commissioner Sam Adams. Synopsis: basically a love-fest.
One of the plans our glorious imperial guard has for the Iraqis in Fallujah:
"They [the US military]will set up "processing centers" on the outskirts of the city and compile a database of peoples' identities by using DNA testing and retina scans. Residents will then receive a badge which identifies them with their home address, which they must wear at all times. Buses will ferry them into their city, as cars will be banned since the military fears the use of them by suicide bombers."
"I can give you a very forceful argument why a hundred million should have gone into the health plan." -- Governor Kulongoski

Florida computer programmer has now made remarkable claims in a detailed sworn
affidavit. An ex-Republican programmer claims that he designed and built a "vote rigging" software program at the behest of then Florida Congressman, now U.S. Congressman, Republican Tom Feeney of Florida's 24th Congressional District.
There is a slight problem here. I recieved a copy of a corporate media article
via a listserve I am on. I'd link to the article via the NY Times website, but they charge something like two dollars to read the article. If anyone requests it, I can post the entire article as I recieved it- free. However, if no one is interested, then tough shit- I'm not going to bother with it. However the article is an interesting peak into the capabilities of the military and the scope of the influence of Lockheed Martin. Understanding the logistics of the military industrial complex is pretty handy to know. But to save the grief of reading the entire article, I have here some relevant snippets from the article and a few comments.
just a reminder that those currently obstructing justice domestically,
are also well connected - high up inside - elite organizations which promote US-funded genocide overseas.
Boycott Target!
December 3Beit Ula I spent the last two days in the village of Beit Ula, a little southwest of Hebron(Al Khaleel). The villagers had called for support in demonstrating to stop the building of the Wall on their land. For those of you that are as yet unfamiliar with the so called Security Barrier, otherwise known as the Apartheid wall, it is a 440 mile long concrete, wire, and razor wire structure consisting in places of a solid concrete 8m high wall. It is not built along the 1967 boundary between Israel and Palestine known as the Green Line, but rather, snakes through the West Bank, cutting through Palestinian towns and villages, separating farmers from their land and merchants from their suppliers.
The Belmont Law Center Writes About the Recent Civil Rights Lawsuit Settlement
This article discusses deliberate attempts by the military to disseminate disinformation in the media. Ofcourse, we are all familar with disinformation and the corporate media. However, this article details specific examples and is therefore worth a peak.

Wizard's "The Big Blab"
"The most influential broadcast ever heard. If you hear anything this year, Johnny's "The Big Blab" will be it." - Traitors to freedom and liberty are the bushite, who spew anything and everything, but to support the FBI, and the arrest of those found responsible for terrorism by following the crime scene leads.
"tricky dicky", that's what they used to call Nixon because of his infamous "dirty tricks". Bush's NH campaign chairman, James Tobin, was indicted for just these types of "tricks". He now faces 5 years.
There was a large mob like crowd agitated by several Douglas County politicians at a Public meeting opposing a 70+ mile road decommissioning proposal. Will their intimidation tactics succeed in stopping this proposal? What sort of precedent will that set?

a call to war
We should all be so "grateful" that Emperor George II
is keeping us "all safe from terrorists."
The world cannot expect any impulses for a better world from the new president. The world must adjust to a superpower armed to the teeth whose political and economic elites are hardly concerned with the well-being of humanity and are not afraid of using their power.
