"[T]hese Falls, which have fallen further, which sit dry
and quiet as a graveyard now? These Falls are that place where ghosts of salmon jump, where ghosts of women mourn their children who will never find their way back home..." -- Sherman Alexie, from "The Place Where Ghosts of Salmon Jump"
Red Cross Deception
For the good of what is left of the nation, George W. Bush must go.
why isn't Indymedia setting up topics around Katrina?
This is threshold that we can use to revivalize and renew the culture of resistance and alternatives.
Good morning!
crazy, crazy. Bush thought that funding the Iraq war and tax cuts were more important than funding the Southeast Louisiana Flood control project, which would have improved the levee and pump system in New Orleans. The article says,
"The Corps never tried to hide the fact that the spending pressures of the war in Iraq, as well as homeland security -- coming at the same time as federal tax cuts -- was the reason for the strain."
Nikon is about to sell a camera with built-in wireless. This could make camera seizure irrelevant.
Some observations are made about the relevance of US crony capitalism and the breakdown of community and social solidarity in hypercapitalist postmodern America, and the recent devastation sparked by Hurricane Katrina on the Louisiana and Gulf coasts.
The Reverend Pat Robertson, heavyweight mullah of God's Own Party, often invokes hurricanes and other acts of God as evidence of the truth of his damnation of various sinners. Once again, another hurricane strikes just in time to prove the Reverend right -- this time, about President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela, whom Pat has issued a fatwa against for being a "dangerous Communist" controlling "a huge pool of oil."
Yes, it's decision time. Energy costs will tip the balance between "global" economy and "Local" economy.
911 truth talk
This is how the NWO Globalists have been able to put their people into all key government positions
Real fuel conservation is needed to avoid shortages affecting rescue efforts!
Repent America issued a press release yesterday blaming Hurricane Katrina on the sinful ways of the city of New Orleans.
... Or have a natural disaster fester into civil conflict and race wars!
Why can't I find where Cheney is?
Need help organizing a protest action to ensure the victims of Hurricane Katrina are rescued and supported.
This repulsive press release was sent out by these lunatics. Please flood them with emails (cc: to the White House) telling them just how unacceptable and unchristian this press release is.
Christopher Hitchens, the scourge of the late Mother Teresa of Calcutta, is at it again! The ex-Lefty has written a rant defending the indefensible - the Iraqi War! His main point: Saddam Hussein was a thug, so therefore the Iraqi war was justified. The Straussian Neocon, however, got it wrong! Under International Law, regime change isn't a legal cause for a war. This is why Bush and his poodle, Blair, had to "fix" the intelligence around the policy.
There seems to be an MO for how this White House handles urban crises: let the place descend into chaos and anarchy and only then go in. Could there be method to this madness?

"The river rose all day,
The river rose all night. Some people got lost in the flood, Some people got away all right. The river have busted through clear down to Plaquemine: Six feet of water in the streets of Evangeline. "Louisiana, Louisiana, They're trying to wash us away, They're trying to wash us away." -- Randy Newman, Louisiana 1927
Craigslist is being used by people all over the US to offer help to refugees of Hurricane Katrina. Maybe you can offer help too. Check it out!
(Great article from when the tsunami hit but quite relevant today. Just replace the word hurricane for tsunami)
"Uncontrolled capitalism proved to be a completely wrong track toward the end of the 19th century." "The governing church of work does everything so people only have time and strength for two things in life: work and job-hunting."
The 30 hours of work per week could be a life-giving goal.
god, they are so devious. This is real. International troop cohorts in the USA authorized as the mobilized groups for martial law in Katrina aras by "our" Pentagon.
" The [neocon] Federal Emergency Management Agency asked the [neocon] Pentagon to activate its [neocon INVENTED] U.S. Northern Command's JOINT TASK FORCE in case troops were needed... We're gonna be reinventing New Orleans," said Bill Lokey, regional director of FEMA. [It's easier to do that once we have destroyed it, you see.]" The attempt to crumble the Posse Commutatus cookie has an internationalist feel...
Citgo, a subsidiary of Petroleos de Venezuela, SA (PDVSA), will be selling gasoline at subsidized rates in the US, courtesy of President Hugo Chavez -- in order to ease the impact of the hurricaines on the Gulf Coast, and reduce the effects of predatory profiteering by US energy companies.
This is a 12 1/2 minute audio file from the Rally held at the end of an energetic day long picket by the Service Employees International Union in front of Legacy Emmanuel Hospital in Portland Oregon on the evening of August 31, 2005.
Do you remember 9/11?(Sure you do) Remember how the media talked about nothing else for over a month++?

On Saturday September 3rd organizers will meet at the vigil in support of Cindy Sheehan and then meet for a organizing meeting at the Back-to-Back Cafe to discuss up coming events.
President Hugo Chavez said that he estimates that his offer will benefit from between 7 to 8 million needy Americans. He added that his embassy in Washington D.C. has already received 140 applications for the program.
Eat shit, Bill!

NEXT / CURRENT DAY lineup in most recent/last COMMENT below
In a manner similar to that of Jose Padilla, Ali Saleh Kahlah al-Marri was abducted on the eve of his trial, declared an enemy combatant, and thrown in the brig. (standing precedent does not allow him any legal basis to do so). After approximately 2 years of detention in the same brig as Jose Padilla, he has filed a lawsuit against Donald Rumsfeld for:
"...unlawful and unconstitutional conditions of confinement to which Plaintiff has been subjected by Defendants at the Consolidated Naval Brig ("the Brig") in North Charleston, South Carolina, since President Bush designated him an "enemy combatant" on June 23, 2003."
LEST WE FORGET How you can go about reading the secret Indonesian government report that investigated gross human rights violations occurring in East Timor during 1999.
Campaign to protect the Mckenzie River Watershed continues to grow.
Workers from Legacy Emanuel hospital are on strike today. They've been walking the picket line at the entrance to the corporate mega-hospital since early this morning, and will continue to strike throughout the day. I stopped by to learn their story.
Anarchist Action is calling for a revolutionary Anti-Capitalist Convergence Against the War in San Francisco on Sep. 24 - take the streets to resist the war and the system behind it! As long as there is capitalism - and the state to support it - this perpetual state of war, racism, sexism, and xenophobia will continue.
"The religious fundamentalist gave the American superpower's mission character to the megalomaniac worldview. Its soldiers bring freedom everywhere as "the gift of almighty God for all people of this world, not as America's gtift.."
Stories from times spent in and around New Orleans with a science twist.

If Bush hadn't sent everyone off to war and blown the budget on the military, there'd have been stronger dykes in New Orleans and more troops and equipment to help with the rescue effort.
The great lie that is the war on terrorism has just taken a very serious blow. A category 5 hurricane named Katrina.
Now we know why the Commander-in-Thief is rushing back to DC from his 5 week vacation...damage control.
Hurricane "Katrina" hit the central Gulf Coast on Aug. 29, 2005, causing devastation. When the Army Corps of Engineers had asked for additional funding to protect the New Orleans region from flooding, the Bush-Cheney Gang said, "No!" Meanwhile, the Neocon-inspired Iraqi War continues to waste hundreds of billions of dollars of our nation's resources. Isn't it time for the American people to wake-up and take action to restore the Republic?
Bush has no rights to sit in any chair or office--except perhaps the electric chair. He stole both 2000 and 2004. He is an illegitimate narcissistic dictatorial twit. Feeney has no rights to even be in the Congress, he should be arrested as well. Plus, Feeney's Florida network connects with a Chinese spy network in the USA. In the past five years, a coterie of traitors has hijacked both the Republican party as well as U.S. democracy, destroyed the whole U.S.A. Constitution and Bill of Rights, taken the U.S. into two wars on false pretenses, has been involved in countless financial crimes and war profiteering crimes...what are you waiting for?!
Some observations about the disastrous storm.
4:30 minute video. About two thousand people converged in Crawford for the "Cindy (Sheehan) Doesn't Speak for Me" rally Saturday. However, in a odd turn of events, and despite repeated pleadings that "we are on your side, we are on the right," the rally turned on conservative youth "Protest Warriors."
At Lauighng Horse, 3652 SE Division we will be auditioning key parts of several documentaries with new research and revelations by people recently "turncoat" on the NeoCons. We'll also be doing program timelining for Morgan Reynolds upcoming personal appearance in Portland during the weekend of September 11th 2005. More info on part of Reynolds plans in Portland attached as RTF file (text of RTF appears in main article below).
Not like more evidence is needed as to how racist, sexist, classist, and sexualist the corporate media is, but these AP, Reuters, and AFP photos attribute "looting" flooded grocery stores to non-white people, while white people miraculously "find" whole lots of cool stuff at flooded grocery stores. Go figure.
In a lengthy process involving a great many activists in Canada and the US, the "Declaration on the Principles of Parks" was discussed, drafted, revised and rewitten multiple times. The end product, currently endorsed by 73 Canadian and US environmental groups, is being released this morning for general review and signon.
